After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive

Dawn is approaching, but the sky is still dark.

The army led by Lian Helan and Zhao Dipu quietly approached the border city.

The city in the distance was quiet, and no one seemed to notice their arrival.

I heard the scout report that the moat was not far ahead.

Zhao Di Pu gripped the reins, staring at the border city shrouded in darkness in the distance, with complex emotions surging in his heart.

Back then, this place was just a few dilapidated trenches.

He followed Prince Zhao, who was the crown prince at the time, and led an army of 20,000 strong, closely pursuing the defeated soldiers of the Dayuan Kingdom, and was about to advance straight into the enemy's territory.

It was here that they were surrounded by 5,000 personal troops led by the general who was supposed to be fighting in the north at the time.

They were defeated and ultimately suffered a crushing defeat.

Zhao Di Pu recalled the past in silence.

Lian Helan looked at the moat stretching in front of him, and a scornful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Are these just childish defenses?"

He turned his head to look at Zhao Di Pu beside him and said, "Move forward quickly and take the opportunity to cross the river at night!"

Zhao Di Pu nodded without hesitation and immediately turned around to convey the order.

If we could sneak to the other side of the river under the cover of night, we might be able to capture the city in one fell swoop.

This time, with the help of the Northern Territory, we must conquer it no matter what to avenge our previous humiliation!

The soldiers acted quickly after receiving the order.

Some soldiers pushed the trench bridge vehicle to the riverside, and with the joint operation of the soldiers, the heavy trench bridge vehicle connected the two sides of the river.

With an order, the cavalry quickly leaped to the other side.

On the other side, many soldiers were carrying long wooden boards connected by ropes and running quickly towards the river.

I saw two soldiers firmly fixing one end of the rope on the shore, and then throwing the wooden board into the river.

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers quickly stepped onto the wooden boards and continued to unfold the folded wooden boards into the distance.

Just follow the wooden plank across the river and secure the other end of the rope to the other side to form a temporary floating bridge.

There was no wind at this time, so the wooden bridge was built smoothly.

As the number of bridges across the river continued to increase, more and more soldiers began to cross the river, their figures looming in the night.

"General, the enemy is trying to cross the river at night!"

In the hall, a scout half-knelt in front of Li Feng with a nervous look on his face.

"Archers, get ready. Once the enemy is halfway across the river, shoot immediately!" Li Feng gave the order decisively.

In the darkness of night, the attacking army rushed towards the other side of the river like a black tide.

Unexpectedly, what awaited them was countless arrows pouring down like raindrops.

With a thunderous roar in the dark night, one rocket after another was seen shot from the top of the city wall towards the river.

There were also cold arrows coming from nowhere on the other side of the river, and each one was shot accurately with the help of the light of the fire.

Screams and wails were heard, and the attacking soldiers were shot by arrows and fell into the water one after another. The pontoon bridge became crowded in an instant.

"Humph, you're trying to be mysterious!"

Lian Helan was stunned when he heard the explosion of the black fireball, but then his face turned gloomy.

"Shield soldiers, move forward and cover the main force crossing the river!"

At this time, the second batch of rockets came, and several rockets hit the wooden boards on the pontoon bridge. The wood blocks were quickly ignited, and two pontoon bridges began to burn.

"Split up and build the pontoon bridge. Leave two teams to launch a feint attack to attract the defenders' attention. The rest of you, force the crossing!"

Lian Helan was furious.

The besieging army struggled forward amidst the fire and rain of arrows. Soldiers kept falling into the river, but they did not dare to retreat and could only rush forward in batches.

Some of the siege soldiers had just stepped onto the other side and had no time to rejoice when they encountered the evil hand.

Suddenly, a team of city defenders appeared behind the newly built sheep and horse wall. They were holding sharp weapons and began to rush towards the attackers who had just landed.

As soon as a horse's hooves stepped onto the river bank, its legs were hooked by the hook-and-sickle spears, and the soldiers on the horses were quickly pulled off.

And the companion who just came ashore with me disappeared in the next second?

Faced with the sudden attack, the besiegers fled in terror, but the narrow space behind the sheep and horse wall left them nowhere to hide.

The defenders pursued the enemy in victory, continuously narrowing the encirclement and surrounding the remaining attackers one by one.

The besiegers were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses in an instant.

"Attack! Attack for me!"

Lian Helan was furious when he saw this. He whipped the horse whip at a hesitant soldier.

"Keep charging forward! Anyone who disobeys my orders will be killed!"

Lian Helan roared and ordered more soldiers to join the forced crossing.

But what can be done even if you dodge the locust-like arrows and black fireballs?

On the other side of the river, there is a team of brave city defenders hiding inside the wall, waiting for an opportunity and holding their position firmly!

The sky gradually turned pale, and the arrows of the defenders hit the target more and more.

At this time, the attackers were exhausted and their morale was at its lowest point.

They looked at the river full of corpses and the burning pontoon bridge, their hearts filled with fear and despair.

Zhao Di Pu was unwilling to give in, but looking at the current situation, he knew that further attack would only increase casualties.

So, he said to Lian Helan, "General Lian, the situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable for us. Let's retreat for now and wait for an opportunity to act tonight!"

Lian Helan glared at Zhao Dipu, the anger on his face still not dissipated.

He was so angry that he felt his liver and gallbladder ached after failing to win the first battle.

He looked around, hesitated for a moment, and finally said helplessly: "Let's set up camp first!"

The attackers retreated, and the defenders cheered.

Everyone was busy replenishing supplies.

Li Qingqing planned to find Li Feng and ask him for a place to leave the city.

On the way there, she saw from afar Lieutenant General Chi commanding two soldiers, who were carrying a bucket of an unknown substance with a strange smell on their shoulders.

"Hey, why does it stink so bad!"

Li Qingqing pinched her nose and walked closer. After seeing the contents of the barrel clearly, she couldn't help but ask:

"Deputy General Chi, it's already so late, and you're fertilizing the land at this time?"

I had just recently taught the residents of the border town the method of fertilizing, but I didn’t expect that Lieutenant General Chi would know it so quickly.

But now the enemy is attacking the city, so it is not appropriate to apply fertilizer!

"Fertilization?"

Deputy General Chi was startled. He turned around and saw that it was Li Qingqing. He then patted her shoulder and laughed.

"Are you talking about this golden liquid? I plan to have the soldiers carry it to the top of the city walls. Once it's boiled and poured out, it will help prevent the enemy from climbing the walls!"

Li Qingqing blinked, then thought that the boiling gold juice could burn the enemy, and the large amount of bacteria in it could cause wound infection.

Isn’t that a good way to repel the enemy?

However, Hu Dabao was still waiting for her to capture prisoners.

She didn't want to have to nurse back to health the prisoners she had captured.

Li Qingqing then said to Deputy General Chi with a smile, "I have something better to use against the enemy soldiers. Let's keep these fertilizers for fertilization!"

The land is fertile, and the crops grown there improve livelihoods!

It can't be ruined!

Upon hearing this, Deputy General Chi frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Oh? What's your plan?"

Li Qingqing smiled. She pretended to take out a dozen small bottles filled with Ecstasy Powder from her pocket, but actually she quietly took out a dozen small bottles from the space.

Shaking the vial, Li Qingqing said, "This is the Ecstasy Powder I managed to obtain. Just a little bit is enough to make the enemy unconscious!"

Li Qingqing told Deputy General Chi how to use it, and continued:

"I need a large number of prisoners to build the city wall. You also hope that our new city wall will be built quickly, right?"

Upon hearing this, Deputy General Chi nodded repeatedly. But then he couldn't help but ask, "Is this medicine really that magical?"

"Of course! Why don't you try it?" Li Qingqing said, preparing to open the bottle.

Deputy General Chi quickly stopped him: "No, no, I don't trust you."
