Empress Jiangshan: The doctor's hand covers the sky

Chapter 29 Gu Cheng's Battle
Ling Tianyue realized that she was really a troubled life!

After finally taking care of Mr. Chen, he also told him frankly that his subordinates can live in it openly and aboveboard.Just about to relax, Zhang Fengshou and Huzi found her. What is their purpose?Transport food!

It would be strange for her to believe that it was purely for transporting food. It is said that now that Gu Cheng has been named a general in southern Xinjiang, with [-] strong soldiers under him, how can she be used?All are provided directly by the imperial court.

The reason why people transported food back then was that Gu Cheng wanted to lead troops to fight. This was a precedent for Dong Dan, so the empress sent him to suppress the bandits.He recruited and trained soldiers by himself, and he had to raise food by himself, so she was needed.Of course, this is what she knew a little bit of gossip in those days in the army.

Now that he has become a general with real power, how can he use her?However, Zhang Feng received a lure: "Miss Ling, this time it's over, and you'll make a net profit of 2 taels."

Huzi begged: "Miss Ling, the general said that the matter is extremely urgent, please follow us to the border town immediately."

"No matter how urgent I am, I have to raise food first!" Ling Tianyue couldn't help but be moved.

Unexpectedly, as soon as her words fell, Zhang Fengshou volunteered to be responsible for raising food, and asked Ling Tianyue to rush over with Huzi first.This is a complete showdown. The transportation of food is just a cover, and it is true to want her to go.

So the poor Ling Tianyue just woke up naturally from a sleep, and after breakfast and lunch were settled for a meal, he went on the road. He didn't even explain a few words to Ling Chennuan, but there was nothing to explain.

After leaving the county seat, he rode his horse and galloped southward.Almost day and night, with occasional stops for a bite to eat.

From the conversation with Huzi, Ling Tianyue finally knew why Gu Cheng let her go so urgently.

The army of Qi State on the southern border is pressing down on the border, but the soldiers guarding the city are listless and have no morale. The two armies are about to fight, and Gu Cheng suspects that the other side has used some shady means.Moreover, he also found out that the robber leaders who had been entrenched for many years also came from Qi.

Ling Tianyue finally understood that Gu Cheng was looking for her to become a doctor.

After traveling for a day and a night, just arrived in the morning, and before he had time to catch his breath, General Gu greeted him personally: "Miss Ling has worked hard all the way. Do you want some tea to soothe your throat? Do you want to take a rest? Go and serve Miss Ling." A good pot of tea. Miss Ling, please follow me."

Ling Tianyue rolled her eyes helplessly, General Gu, even if you're being polite, you'll do the right thing!
Dare to dare to say.

Ling Tianyue had no choice but to follow Gu Cheng to several places, and heard him say sadly: "At first, I thought it was because they refused to accept me as a general, but later I found that many of my subordinates were not as good as before. I asked the doctor to check the water source and Food is fine. Miss Ling, can you see what's going on?"

Gu Cheng is worried!He finally became the general he dreamed of, he could call troops on the battlefield and arrange troops, but he didn't want to lose before the battle, and he didn't want the great rivers and mountains to be taken away from him by the enemy.

Ling Tianyue also checked the soldiers' usual food and clothing expenses, and there was indeed nothing wrong with them.However, she discovered a strange phenomenon, the soldiers who stood at a high place with no shelter around them, the weaker they were, while those who stood below the city wall were much better.

Ling Tianyue guessed that it should be a problem with the air, but he still checked: "General Gu, does the wind here often blow towards the enemy?"

"Indeed." Gu Cheng instantly understood Ling Tianyue's meaning, but his heart was even more anxious, "Then what should I do?" Even if we use the antidote at this time, and then give it some wind, should we use the antidote again?Not a long-term solution!

It's really despicable, isn't it good to fight in an upright manner?These means must be used.But fortunately, there is money to be made!Ling Tianyue thought to herself.

"I happen to have a plan. General Gu, why don't we go have some tea first, I'm really thirsty." Seeing Mr. Gu Cheng's selfless appearance, Ling Tianyue couldn't help reminding him.

Seeing that she was confident, Gu Cheng was glad that he sent someone to find her in time.

Ling Tianyue saw that although the soldiers defending the city lacked morale, Gu Cheng commanded well, not to mention protecting the city in a safe manner, and the possibility of taking it down is not high.

"What was the general's plan?" Ling Tianyue couldn't help asking.

"Stay behind closed doors." Gu Cheng smiled wryly, there was nothing he could do, "People from the Qi State were shouting outside, and many soldiers thought I was useless."

Ling Tianyue glanced at him with admiration. This kind of general who does not fight for personal honor and disgrace is truly trustworthy: "The general is a true general, why care about other people's eyes, this is the best way at present. The enemy is fighting every day. It needs to consume food and grass, the city is impenetrable, and our morale is low. It is not a good opportunity for the two sides to fight. General Gu thinks about the soldiers, and they will appreciate it in the future."

After hearing what she said, Gu Cheng looked at her with deep eyes in surprise, he really didn't expect her to see through what he was thinking at a glance.Is she really just a doctor who has some skills and loves money?It's more like a bosom friend who met each other lately.

After hearing Ling Tianyue's plan, Gu Cheng ordered someone to quietly buy a bull and a medicinal material, and then quietly grind the medicinal material into granules.

After two days of work, the bull was almost found, the people of Qi shouted again, the wind picked up again, Gu Cheng ordered his men to open the city gate, and the battle finally started.

When the people of Qi saw that the city gate was wide open, but only a herd of cattle had been driven out, and none of the enemies came out, they couldn't help being a little surprised.

With a wave of Gu Cheng's hand, the soldiers on the city wall dropped the medicine packs in their hands one after another, and the bulls on the ground rushed towards the Qi army like crazy.

When the herd of cattle was approaching, the people of Qi discovered that the cattle had sharp knives stuck in their heads, and immediately lined up to fight.But those who came were all desperate bulls, extremely powerful, rampaging, and the scene where the Qi people failed was a tragic scene!

Although a few soldiers who were good at fighting cut off the bull's legs or killed them, many soldiers were killed and injured. The general of Qi stepped forward and ordered the soldiers to retreat in batches.

Upon seeing this, Gu Cheng's staff all suggested: "General, now that they are fleeing, we might as well go up and annihilate them in one fell swoop."

Gu Cheng shook his head and said: "No, although we have won now, you can see that they retreated. It looks chaotic on the surface, but in fact it is very orderly. It should be to lure us into the bait. They will not leave so fast, they will come back soon .” After so many years of thinking about Dong Dan, it’s no wonder he gave up so casually!
Ling Tianyue admired his sharp eyesight!
"Then what should we do next?" Ling Tianyue couldn't help being curious.

"Burn their food and grass first, and see if they plan to fight to the death or flee back to Qi." Gu Cheng said calmly, "Please trouble Miss Ling to distribute the antidote to me now."
