The medical officer also brought in a lot of medicinal herbs at this moment.
Zhao Rui picked out a few medicines and threw them to the medical officer: "Burn these medicines into ashes and apply them to the general's wounds."
Although the medical officer had some doubts, he did not dare to disobey the order and could only follow it.
Zhao Rui picked out a few more herbs, crushed them into pieces, and stuffed them into Shan Tianxiong's mouth and nose.
Not long after, Shan Tianxiong coughed violently, and a mouthful of black blood spurted out.
Although this kind of neurotoxin is a deadly toxin in this era, in Zhao Rui's opinion, it is not a big deal, it is just some bacteria and viruses.
In his era, only one shot of anti-venom serum could cure the disease.
Although there are no such things here, there are enough herbal medicines and the right dosage can be easily detoxified by taking them internally or externally.
When the medical officer saw Shan Tianxiong wake up, he felt relieved and applied the burned ashes to his wound.
"Father-in-law, you saved me again!"
Shan Tianxiong patted Zhao Rui on the shoulder, his face full of gratitude.
As the general of Dingbian, Shan Tianxiong used to have a grudge against the eunuchs in the palace. In his opinion, these hermaphrodites who only obeyed the yin and yin were not worthy of talking to him at all.
But after contacting Zhao Rui several times, he changed his mind about eunuchs.
"General, it's serious. This is what I should do! However, the city is in danger at the moment, so I hope the general can take command on the spot."
Zhao Rui did not dare to neglect at all and hurriedly relayed the order he had just given to Shan Tianxiong.
"Okay!" Shan Tianxiong suddenly became excited: "I didn't expect that my father-in-law would have such courage. At this time, there is no other choice but this method of warfare!"
He had fought this kind of battle several times, and he was very good at it. He immediately added a few items to Zhao Rui's orders.
An hour later, earth-shattering shouts of killing rang out from the outside of the city.
Having been teased by more than forty imperial guards just now, both Rouran and Xiongnu were filled with anger.
They gathered a large army and attacked from the four city gates at the same time, all the way to Wengcheng without any obstruction.
Just when they thought they were about to capture the city, a large number of rockets suddenly fell from the top of the barbican city!
The fire oil that had been sprinkled on the ground burst into flames and instantly devoured the incoming enemies, causing them numerous casualties.
When the enemy troops following behind saw this scene, they were frightened and fled one after another.
Shan Tianxiong saw the opportunity and ordered the soldiers in the city to rush out at once and launch a counterattack.
The enemy immediately discarded their armor and was defeated across the board, leaving tens of thousands of corpses behind and fled in panic.
Shan Tianxiong hugged Zhao Rui and kept patting his back.
"Father, you are really the savior of our border city soldiers. If it weren't for you, these border cities would have been taken away again! In my opinion, you don't want to go back to the palace, just stay here. I'll give it to you
It’s time to join the army.”
Zhao Rui's eyes suddenly lit up. As long as he didn't stay in the palace, he could do anything.
But then I thought again, how could Murong Bing tolerate him joining the army here?
"The general accepts it kindly, but I'm afraid that His Majesty will..."
Before he could finish speaking, two soldiers rushed in in a hurry.
"General! Father-in-law! Someone from the Huns has come, saying he has something important to discuss with you!"
