After Su Qing left, Qin Tie worked tirelessly for the past few days and finally made the mortar that Su Qing wanted. It was all made according to her blueprints, not missing a single point.

When Su Qing returned to Mo City, she saw Qin Tie at the city gate. Since he made the mortar, Qin Tie had been waiting for Su Qing or Xiao Zeyu to return. When it was cold, he would go to the city gate tower to warm himself up. This day, when he was freezing stiff and went to the city gate tower to warm himself, a soldier came to tell him that the young madam had returned.

“Young Madam.”

Qin Tie ran out of the city gate tower with a corner of his cotton robe in his hand, his face brimming with a happy smile. Su Qing heard Qin Tie’s voice and lifted the carriage curtain. When she saw Qin Tie’s smile, her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he succeeded?

Indeed, Qin Tie could not wait to tell her,

“Young Madam, it’s done, it’s done.”

“Really?”

Su Qing asked in surprise. This was the best gift for the new year.

“It’s true. Please come to my house to take a look.”

Qin Tie’s eyes lit up, and he looked utterly confident. Su Qing smiled and nodded.

“Alright.”

If the mortars were successfully made, it would be time to destroy the Wan Family Army. She, who had always been calm, was extremely excited. She hated the long journey and wanted to see the mortars immediately.

Qin Tie refused to enter the carriage and jogged in front to lead the way. He was so happy that he wanted to fly. He was more excited than any new mechanism he had created.

He could finally repay his benefactor!

Su Qing followed Qin Tie to his house. Qin Tie had placed the mortar in his bedroom. He couldn’t let the young madam follow him into the bedroom, so he asked Su Qing to wait for him in the living room. A servant girl brought Su Qing tea. She sat on a chair and waited for Qin Tie to bring the mortar.

Soon, Qin Tie returned. Two guards followed behind him, carrying the completed mortar. Su Qing stood up immediately. Qin Tie had made it exactly like her blueprint.

She walked over excitedly. With this, the Xiao Family Army would be invincible.

After all, he was an expert in making traps. His mortar was very precise and the same as what Su Qing wanted. Now, he was just missing the cannonball. With the cannonball, he could use it on the battlefield.

“Young Madam, is this lowly servant qualified?”

Seeing that Su Qing was only looking at the mortar without saying a word, Qin Tie was extremely nervous and could not help but ask.

” I would spoil you this time. You’ll have to bear my punishment if you dare to fool me.

I don’t care what method you use; you must gather them.”

“Then you’d better blow me up!”

The system started to mess with her. It was sure that Su Qing wouldn’t dare to blow him up. If she did, what would she use?

However, the system was wrong. Su Qing kept her word and activated the self-destruct program, scaring the system so much that its voice changed,

“I’ll think of a way, I’ll think of a way.”

Su Qing’s finger was about to touch the self-destruct sequence when she heard the system stop at the last second. There was only a piece of paper between her finger and the button, and she almost pressed it.

The system was so scared that it became weak. It went to prepare the gunpowder with a pale face.

Su Qing went to the winery to brew wine after solving all the problems. She had to make the hundred jars of wine she had promised her uncle’s master as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would keep chasing her for debts.

Su Qing brewed wine in the winery for three days. In the blink of an eye, it was already the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, she had to eat noodles and tie the child’s legs. Su Qing got up early in the morning and rolled out noodles to help tie the child’s legs.

A soldier rushed over to report as soon as the noodles were rolled out.

“Young Madam, there’s an emergency military report from Luo City requesting reinforcements.”

Su Qing hurriedly received the report from the courier. On it was Xiao Zeyu’s handwriting. He requested that Cheng Yu leave only a few of his soldiers to defend the city and the rest to come to Luo City as reinforcements. He also requested to bring more provisions.

‘Was the situation getting tense?’

Su Qing frowned after reading it. The Wan Family Army was more challenging to fight than they had imagined.

“Gather the troops.”

Su Qing ordered that she would lead troops to Luo City to support Shuisheng.

She didn’t take too many soldiers with her. If the enemy took advantage of the situation and invaded, they would lose their base camp.

This time, they took three mortars and five shells that had been made. These were all made by Qin Tie and the head blacksmith over the past few days. They came in handy.

Su Qing led 100 soldiers. Three mortars and shells were loaded on a cart and placed in the team’s middle. The rations were at the front, and Su Qing sat in the carriage at the back to hold the line.

She did not ride a horse. Her body was made of iron, but the child in her stomach was not. She had to consider the safety of the child.

Along the way, they didn’t encounter any ambushes. The Wan Family Army had used all their main forces to attack Luo City. The situation was fierce. Xiao Zeyu had already used up all his grenades, and not many Rolling Wood Thunder Stones were left. Not only did the Wan Family Army not retreat, but they also increased in numbers..
