Ning Pengpeng was suffocating in her heart, little devil, what the hell, even if you change to another world, you are still a little devil!
"Everyone, remember, only defend but not attack.
Unless they knock on the door, no one should show their heads no matter what.
Stay away, be careful not to get hurt.
Those who are injured should get down quickly, while the woman prepares medicine and bandages the injured.
Also, prepare food and drink to ensure that the people guarding the city wall are full of energy.
From now on, everyone will be divided into two groups, taking turns to rest and prepare for a protracted battle."
Hearing what the master said, everyone in the Tulou immediately nodded in agreement.
In order to prevent the people in the earth building from being distracted, Ning Pengpeng directly ordered the servants of the Ning Mansion to transport a batch of food from the top floor of the earth building.
Looking at the dozen bags of grain, sweet potatoes and some salted fish that had been dried and were going to be sold in the shop in Nanyue Fucheng.
The group of women who were originally in suspense finally calmed down.
Although there are no green leafy vegetables, these women on the beach are not stupid.
Take out the garlic at home, separate the garlic cloves, and place them in a bamboo tube filled with a shallow layer of water.
These bamboo tubes were left over from the previous construction of earth buildings.
Originally I was thinking of staying here so that I could weave something in the future without having to cut new bamboo.
Now, it is cut directly into two.
Then after putting it down, put a little water inside so that the water will not pour out easily.
And when these garlic cloves are soaked in this water, it won't take long for them to grow leaves.
In this way, even everyone can eat green leafy vegetables.
Moreover, every time you pick, just pull off the grown leaves.
In that case, the garlic leaves will continue to grow.
I have to say that even a peasant woman has a little bit of wisdom.
As for salt, salted fish already has salt, so there is no need to worry about running out of salt.
There is also fresh water. Before the earth building here was built, Ning Pengpeng had a sweet water well dug out right in the center of the earth building.
So, there is no need to worry about everyone having no water to drink.
On the other hand, the pirates outside the door wanted to make a quick victory when they came ashore. After all, this was not their home base.
If the officers and soldiers in Nanyue Fucheng noticed something strange, they wouldn't be able to bear it.
Of course, the most important thing is that they came ashore to search for things, so they didn't bring much food and water with them.
The original idea was very good, just grab food, water and women from the homes of these pigs.
Now, at least twenty people brought by Eio Kawamura are dead, not to mention twenty or thirty people injured.
As a result, of the more than 100 people she brought with her, only about half of them were intact.
This also made Kawamura Eio determined to break through this earthen building. Otherwise, with such serious losses, she was here to establish her authority. If she went back in such a dejected manner, who would take her seriously?
Therefore, no matter what, she cannot retreat no matter how high the price is.
However, Ning Pengpeng ordered to defend, and even though Eio Kawamura had his men attack fiercely several times, they were forced to retreat.
For this reason, several more of his subordinates died and more than a dozen people were injured. Looking at the people lying on the ground, Kawamura Eio's anger reached its peak.
"Go, send a team of people to search along the seaside to see if there are any other fishing villages.
Then I will catch more pigs and see if the people in this building will die without saving them."
A sinister smile appeared on Kawamura Einan's face.
However, as a result, she has fewer and fewer manpower to attack the Tulou gate.
Of course, because of the previous fierce attacks, several of Ning Pengpeng's archers were injured.
Now after careful calculation, there are only five people left.
Although there were others who were not injured, they couldn't shoot arrows, so it was all in vain.
Ning Pengpeng looked at the remaining five people and gritted his teeth.
"Next time, don't show off easily.
Wait a moment and have someone bring the pot for boiling water to this side of the city wall."
There is really no other way. If the pirates still want to knock on the door, they will have no choice but to throw boiling water on them!
However, there is a big difference between pouring boiling water on the people climbing on the ropes from the city wall and pouring boiling water from the city wall onto the pirates carrying the wood.
One, if it is far away, even if the hot water is boiling, the water will be scattered when it is poured down.
In addition, if such a high city wall falls down, when it hits these people, part of the heat may be blown away.
Therefore, the originally scalding hot water should not cause much harm to these people.
However, Ning Pengpeng thought of a way. When building earth buildings before, there was not much else, so a lot of building materials could be left behind.
Among them is lime.
Therefore, she was prepared if the pirates came to knock on the door again.
Then spread lime first, then pour boiling hot water.
I believe that lime soaked in water is enough for these pirates to eat in a pot.
However, the lime stored in the earth building is all lime blocks, and everyone has to grind all the lime blocks into powder first.
Then it was wrapped in oil paper to prevent it from being blown away by the wind before it was thrown to the pirates under the city wall outside.
When the two sides were in a stalemate, Liu Hu and his men arrived in Nanyue Fucheng safely.
He didn't have time to tell Ning Laosi. After all, telling him would only make him anxious!
Instead, he asked not to be jealous and went directly to Futai Mansion.
Fortunately, Liu Hu often brought large amounts of silver from the Ning family to Futai Mansion in the past few months. The person guarding the gate of Futai Mansion had already known him.
Seeing the anxious look on his face, he didn't stop him and let him in directly.
However, not long after Liu Hu entered, he saw Master Cheng coming over and asked with a frown.
"Just now, Manager Liu from the Ning family came?"
"Master Hui Cheng, yes."
The guard didn't know what Master Cheng was thinking, so he didn't hide it and replied directly.
Cheng Jinyuan listened and thought for a moment. The person who came to report had said that Liu Hu looked very panicked, as if something had happened.
There must be nothing good going on here.
"Manager Liu, what are you doing?"
Cui Qingyuan was originally in the study, finally able to rest for a while. As soon as he picked up the tea, he heard a report from his servants, saying that Manager Liu from the Ning Mansion had come over and wanted to see him if there was something urgent!
"Master Cui, the earth building where the county lord is located is besieged by hundreds of pirates, and I beg Master Cui for rescue."
"What?
Tell me carefully!"
Hearing Liu Hu's breathless words, Cui Qingyuan was so frightened that he stood up and knocked over the cup of tea he was holding in his hand.
Liu Hu took a deep breath and spoke slowly about Cui Qingyuan's siege of the county lord.
After listening, Cui Qingyuan did not immediately say to send someone to rescue, but frowned and asked.
"The Lord of Shouning County asked you to come, and that's all you said?"
