Chapter 286

But at this time, general Cheng's body is fiercely tightened, and his teeth are tightly gripping the stick in his mouth.

General Li then turned to look at general Cheng, only to see the sweat on his forehead.

Then general Li asked him, "is it OK?"

General Cheng nodded at this time.

Immediately, General Li continued to bow his head to remove the carrion on general Cheng's chest.

Look at general Cheng again. The blood has oozed out of his mouth, and the sweat on his forehead falls like rain.

Although it's only half a quarter of an hour, it must be the longest time for general Cheng and General Li.

After General Li removed the last piece of rotten meat, he was relieved. Then the soldiers behind him took away the rotten meat cut from general Cheng, and then brought the water for cleaning.

After General Li cleans his hands, he takes out the wound healing medicine and sprinkles it on general Cheng's wound.

When the powder touches the wound, general Cheng's body is tight again.

Then general Li bandaged the wound again with a cloth. After everything was done, General Li got up and took a towel from the table to wipe off the sweat on general Cheng's forehead.

I saw general Cheng spit the stick out of his mouth at this time, his eyes slightly open, his face very pale.

General Li then covered the quilt for him, and then said to him, "you are very weak now, have a good rest."

General Cheng nodded a little.

Just then, the voice of the soldiers came from the tent door, "general."

General Li's eyebrows slightly wrinkled after hearing this. What can I do at this time? It's not Xiling's coming to invade the army.

Thinking of this, General Li said to the soldiers in the room, "take good care of general Cheng."

"Yes, general." The soldiers in the barracks arched their hands.

Then general Li left the barracks.

Only to see a soldier standing at the door at this time, see General Li went out, then arch hands to salute, "General Li."

"But what happened?" General Li then looked at him and asked.

The soldier then handed the letter Xiao Mu had just given him to General Li, "general, please read it."

"What is this?" General Li frowned slightly at this time, said, and received the letter.

Then he opened it and looked at it.

After watching it, General Li raised his head and asked the soldier, "where is the man now?"

"Go back to the general and stand guard outside." The soldier went on to say.

General Li nodded, and then said to him, "I see. Now I'll arrange a place for them to settle down first. After they've settled down, let people come to see me."

"Yes, general." The soldier nodded, then turned and ran away.

Xiao Mu's eyebrows slightly wrinkled at this time. Why hasn't he seen anyone come back for such a long time? Just thinking about it, he saw a soldier running towards here.

When he gets closer, Xiao Mu moves forward.

The soldier came up to him and said, "young master Xiao, follow me."

Xiao Mu nodded, then turned to the person behind him and said, "let's go."

Then a group of people followed the soldier inside.

When he walked in, he saw many people lying in the barracks, frowning.

Along the way, he had heard that Xiling attacked suddenly, and there were some strange people in its army, who could not get in with their swords and guns.

With only 10000 military horses in Xiling, Dongling was caught off guard.

It seems that what I heard on the road is true.

Then a group of people followed the soldier to a place, pointed to the room in front of him, and said, "young master Xiao, you stay here for the time being."

"I'm tired." Xiao Mu then said to the soldier with an arched hand.

After hearing this, the soldiers waved their hands. "My general said that I will let Mr. Xiao go to the barracks after he has finished his work."

"I see. Just a moment." Xiaomu should say to it, and then go inside.

Then he took the burden off his body and said to the others, "we've been on the road all night, so we'll have a good rest here first."

With that, Xiao Mu went out of the tent and said to the soldier, "let's go."

The soldier nodded, walked forward, and led Xiaomu to General Li's tent.

General Li is worrying about food and grass at this time. There are only five days left. If he doesn't find a way in time, his soldiers will be hungry five days later.

If the Xiling army comes to invade the army at that time, General Li can't help sighing.

But where did the food and grass come from? There was no food for the frontier fortress in the flood of Jiandu this year. Previously, the food and grass sent by the emperor was not enough. Later, he wrote back to the emperor, but for such a long time, nothing happened.

Just thinking, a voice came from the tent door, "general, Mr. Xiao is here."

"Well, let it in." General Li said at this time.

Then Xiao Mu went to the tent.

I saw General Li's brows locked and his head propped up with his hands.

Xiao Mu then arched his hands and saluted him, "see General Li."

"No, just sit down." General Li then raised his head and said to Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu nodded and sat down on the stool.

"Young master Xiao, when will Shuo Hou arrive at the frontier fortress?"

"I don't know. The Marquis sent a letter to let me come here first." Xiao Mu then returns to General Li.

After hearing this, General Li frowned and his face was full of melancholy.

Xiao Mu then asked, "when will General Li worry?"

"The frontier fortress is in short supply of food and grass. I wrote to the emperor before, but I haven't seen any food and grass. I hope that the emperor will send Shuo hou to escort the food and grass here." General Li said with a sigh.

Now he can only put his hope on shuoling. If he brings food and grass, they can stick to it for a while. If they don't, they will starve even if Xiling isn't attacking.

Xiaomu's brow was wrinkled after hearing this, and then he asked, "how many days can we eat in the barracks?"

"Five days." General Li said to Xiao Mu with his eyes closed.

Xiao Mu nodded and said, "General Li, we can't wait to die. If the Emperor didn't let our Marquis send us food and grass, then the soldiers would be hungry. I saw that many people were injured. If Xiling attacked again, we couldn't fight back."

"But this is the only way. This year's flood in Jiandu is hard to protect. In the past years, the food and grass for the winter in the frontier fortress were provided by Jiandu. In a few days, where can we raise food and grass?" General Li then said to Xiao Mu.

After hearing this, Xiao Mu thought for a moment, "otherwise, my brothers and I will go to some areas near the frontier fortress to see how much we can collect. Even if our Marquis doesn't come here with food and grass, it's better than waiting to die."

"Now think about it. It's just like this. Young master Xiao has been all the way to the frontier fortress. He went to have a rest before, and then tomorrow." General Li sighed and then said to Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu nodded his head at this time, but did not refuse. They rushed to the frontier fortress all night long, and their bodies were really a little unbearable.

"General Li, if there is nothing else, I will go down." Then Xiao Mu said to General Li.

General Li nodded slightly, and Xiao Mu went out to his tent.

When he walked into the tent, all the brothers were lying asleep.

Xiao Mu knows that everyone is too tired.

In the previous capital construction, due to the lack of manpower, everyone went to the dam to help, and from the dam to the frontier fortress, there was no rest on the road, and we have been on the way.

Then Xiao Mu also went to an empty place and lay down. Then he put the sword beside him. Soon, he fell asleep.

The capital at this time.

The dam was finally completed before the rain. Seen from a distance, it was built in a magnificent way.

At this time, master Liang Cheng looked at the completed dam with great excitement. He wanted to know the dam he was in charge of building earlier. Because the governor of the capital of the people's Republic of China dropped the selected materials, the dam burst directly when the autumn flood came.

Later, because of this, he didn't design for many years, until Mo left to find him, he agreed.

I didn't expect that shuohou actually said to do it. He would check all the purchased materials every time.

This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is to get in touch with the princess of Qingcheng at once. His three words and two words solved the problem in his mind.

At this time, the village name who built the capital knew that the dam was completed today, so they all laid down their work and came to celebrate.

Of course, looking at the dam in front of us is quite different from the previous one. The face is full of smiles. The dam looks higher and much thicker than the previous one.

It seems that they won't have to worry about it every year.

With the sound of firecrackers, the villagers stopped talking.

When the firecrackers were over, everyone was full of joy.

At this time, Xu Qing came to these people with a smile on his face, and then he said with a smile, "let's be quiet first."

As soon as Xu Qing's voice fell, all the people in front of him stopped talking and looked at him.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Xu Qing said with a smile at this time, "today is a great day to celebrate. After several months, our dam is finally completed today, which means that you don't have to worry about the flood season any more."

"Good, good."

"Well, I've been looking forward to this day for a long time. After the dam is built, we can have no worries later."

As soon as Xu Qing's voice fell, the people clapped their hands together and then said.

At this time, Xu Qing held out his right hand and motioned to everyone not to speak. After watching it, he stopped. Then Xu Qing said, "thanks to shuohou and Qingcheng princess. When I returned to build the capital, a few days later was the wedding day of shuohou and Qingcheng princess. It's a pity that shuohou and Qingcheng Princess didn't attend the wedding banquet because of the tight time The sheriff may not come back to build the capital, but I still want everyone to remember them. Without them, we would have looked a lot more now. "
