Chapter 57: Adjusting the plan
Before he could figure out the plan to attack the 240,000 troops of the imperial court, Dong Chenghu had no choice but to obviously Zhang Xingchi took the vanguard to intercept the prince, King of Peace. When Zhang Xingchi set off, Dong Chenghu repeatedly told him to think twice, and even gave Dong San and Dong Wu around him to Zhang Xingchi because he was worried, so that they could look at Zhang Xingchi.
However, after the team left Xin'an County, Zhang Xingchi stopped. The prince, King Ping, came from different directions. At this moment, he had to face a choice. Should he deal with the prince first or King Ping first?
He must make a choice when facing both fish and bear's paws. Zhang Xingchi simply threw a leaf from top to bottom, and then intercepted the prince when facing upwards, and intercepted the prince when facing downwards.
After the leaves landed, Zhang Xingchi's sarcastic chuckled at the very corner, his eyes were full of coldness, and he said to Dong San and Dong Wu with confidence: "You two bring some of your troops to intercept and kill King Ping. Just leave me a small number of elite soldiers to take them away. Let's intercept and kill the prince!"
Dong San exclaimed: "Master Xingchi, the young master means that we will protect you all the way, and we cannot leave." Dong San was very persistent in this regard. After all, it was Dong Chenghu's order, and he must follow Dong Chenghu's orders.
Dong Wu, who was standing by, also said, "Master Xingchi, it's not a time to act voluntarily. We know that you don't like us to follow us, but this is our duty and the order of the young master. We cannot disobey the young master's intention."
Zhang Xingchi was persuaded by the two of you without saying a word. After thinking for a while, he gave in and said, "Let's do this, Dong San leads a team of men to intercept and kill Ping Wang. There are some medicines here, I will divide you into part, and Dong Wu will follow me. Is this a whole?
Don't rush to refuse. I know what you mean, but the situation is serious now. If we really do what we say, we are afraid we will not be able to take them down in one fell swoop. And once one side receives the news that the other side is ambushed, it is afraid that it will be difficult for us to use the same trick again."
After Zhang Xingchi's repeated persuasion, Dong San and Dong Wu finally compromised helplessly. One of them led the team to attack, the other one stayed with Zhang Xingchi and followed Zhang Xingchi.
After the arrangements were made, Zhang Xingchi had no scruples. With an order, the large group of people began to rush to the ambush. Zhang Xingchi led an elite force to the ambush and make some preparations.
Dong Chenghu couldn't think of a good way, so he could only discuss with Yu Yi and continue to use the poisoning plan.
Everyone here is busy fighting with the court, and Gu Shuixiu's research on hidden weapons has also made great progress.
All the previous problems have been solved. Now the hidden weapon they made can shoot out more than twenty fine and dense poison needles at a large scale at the same time, four or five times more than the five needles they planned before. Now it really achieves the effect of large-scale killing.
The biggest problem now is how to control a single target target at one time. Gu Shuixiu and Dong Yi discussed this for a long time but couldn't come up with a good solution. The two of them had no choice but to use the most superficial method to make another launch hole on the original launch hole, and even the control switch must be made outside. In the end, they barely met Gu Shuixiu's requirements.
As soon as the things were made, Gu Shuixiu immediately asked Dong Yi to copy ten pieces, but there were not a thousand poison needles in them. These poison needles could be supplemented later. At that time, he gave Dong Chenghu one, Zhang Xingchi one, Dong Wei and others one, Dong Yi kept one herself, and she also wanted one, and prepared one for the home for spare, ten pieces were just right.
After Dong Yi made ten hidden weapons, Gu Shuixue gave the hidden weapon a name, called the rainy pear blossom needle, which was the name of the hidden weapon that was famous in the previous life.
Dong Yi didn't know this and admired Gu Shuixiu's ability to name him.
After finishing ten heavy rain pear blossom needles, Gu Shuixiu immediately asked Dong Yi to go to Linhai County with these ten weapons and handed them to Dong Chenghu and others.
After Dong Yi left, Gu Shuixiu began to return to normal life. Only then did she think about her parents' home. Zhao Baoer has been away from Cuizhushan for more than half a year. In the past six months, he wrote two letters to Cuizhushan, and sent some letters and specialties to Zhao and Gu Mingde.
However, the old couple couldn't read one of them, and couldn't understand these letters. Gu Shuixiu thought that she hadn't returned to the Gu family for a long time. It seemed that after Dong Qinyan came back, she had not left Cuizhushan. She thought in her mind that she should take the child back and take a walk.
The weather in July is very hot, but there is a hint of coolness in the mountains. The mountain breeze can blow away all the heat of people.
Dong Qinyan was wearing a beautiful goose yellow forsythia embroidered satin dress with branches and embroidered silk, standing silently in the courtyard, allowing the mountain wind to blow on her face, combed her two meticulous bags, and the two pearl bells tied on them made a crisp sound in the wind.
This wonderful scenery makes people unable to help but be intoxicated at first sight.
A sudden scream destroyed the beautiful painting. Gu Shuixiu urged: "Niu Niu, pack your own things quickly. Your brother is ready. If you don't hurry up, your mother won't bring you."
A few black lines appeared on Dong Qinyan's forehead, and she couldn't help but complain in her heart, "Why do you always like to coax children like this? My grandfather and grandmother spoiled her so much. If she didn't go, her mother would definitely be blamed when she went back. She didn't believe that her mother would really not take her with her.
"Okay, I'll go..." Dong Qinyan responded helplessly, glanced at the morning light greedily, and then jumped back to her room.
After she finished packing the things, she found that Gu Shuixiu and Dong Yuanzheng were already sitting and chatting leisurely in the yard, waiting for her to be alone. The beautiful scenery beside Gu Shuixiu saw Dong Qinyan coming out, and consciously stepped forward to take Dong Qinyan's bag, shared the burden with the wonderful people around her, and carried everyone's luggage.
In fact, Gu Shuixiu didn’t have much luggage, just a few clothes to change, but she had to bring some things to Gu Mingde and Zhao, so it was much heavier.
They had to transport these things to the other side of the river first, and when they arrived at the house there, they changed into donkey carts, and Dong Er, Dong Si and Dong Liu escorted them back together.
The situation in the mountains has gradually stabilized. There are few big guys like leopards and black bears in their area. This is thanks to the effect of Dong Yi and the others going out to hunt together with the Qin family in the past few years. In those two years, the three families made a lot of money by hunting, and at the same time they drove all the large beasts within the range outside the mountain.
