The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1108

Chapter 1108: Chapter 931, Doubting Life

All the arrows and bolts stored at the guardhouse were transferred to the city wall, where a group of soldiers was responsible for soaking the arrows in oil.

Daohua saw several catapults on the city wall, thought for a moment, and then had Dongli bring a batch of porcelain and clay jars, filling them with oil.

Gu Jian, Guo Ruomei, and Chu Lang all stood protectively to the left and right of Daohua.

Watching Daohua calmly and methodically discuss the city’s defense with Dongli, the three of them felt reassured.

"Your son is really lucky to have married such a good wife," Chu Lang whispered to Guo Ruomei.

Even if Yan Yiyi did nothing, just standing on the city wall was an inspiration to the morale.

If it were any other delicate lady, she probably wouldn’t have the courage to even climb up to the city tower, let alone offer strategies to repel the enemy.

Guo Ruomei shot him a glance: "That’s because Yangyang is outstanding."

Chu Lang nodded repeatedly, agreeing with whatever Guo Ruomei said: "Initially, most people were not optimistic about Yan girl, but you and I saw clearly, this girl is indeed a fortune-bringing virtuous wife."

"Besides her family background, in what way is she inferior to those noble ladies? Therefore, when it comes to forming marital ties, one does not necessarily have to only consider familial backgrounds."

"Luckily you supported them back then."

Guo Ruomei smiled and glanced at Daohua, secretly proud of her astute choice back then.

Time slowly slipped away, and daylight gradually broke.

Outside the city gate, Xiao Yechi temporarily halted the attack, face clouded over as he looked at his soldiers who had burnt to death and the destroyed siege ladders.

As it dawned, he also spotted Yan Yiyi standing on the city wall.

Just then, Daohua’s gaze also fell downwards.

Seeing Xiao Yechi stare venomously at her, Daohua frowned slightly.

At that moment, the child in her belly moved, and Daohua quickly put a hand on her stomach: "Did the baby get scared? Don’t be afraid, Mom will make them pay."

After a moment of silence, Daohua thoughtfully pointed at Xiao Yechi, then she slid her thumb across her neck and finally, pointing her thumb downwards, she looked disdainfully at Xiao Yechi outside the city.

This sudden gesture stunned Xiao Yechi for a moment, then fury followed; he realized that Yan Yiyi was provoking him.

Damn it!

Who gave her the confidence, who gave her the audacity?

Even the other people on the city wall were astonished looking at Daohua, but they felt more amazing than surprised, sensing that Daohua just now was very imposing.

Chu Lang, interested in that gesture, moved closer to Daohua: "What did that gesture mean just now?"

Daohua: "Beheading."

Chu Lang, not quite understanding but admiring: "I need to learn this gesture well."

Daohua didn’t say much more, once again turned her gaze outside the city.

At this moment, the Xiliao army moved again, probably realizing that it was impossible to scale the walls with ladders, Xiao Yechi had people bring out the catapults.

While they were still setting up the catapults, Dongli commanded the guards on the city wall to initiate an attack.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

One by one, the jars filled with oil were thrown down the city wall, hitting the midst of the Xiliao army, followed immediately by the ’swoosh’ of dozens of flaming arrows shooting downwards.

"Retreat, retreat quickly!"

As Xiao Yechi retreated on horseback, he roared loudly.

It wasn’t long before the catapults Xiao Yechi brought were all burned down.

The attack failed again, Xiao Yechi roared furiously several times, looking at the towering walls of Ganzhou City, both anxious and angry inside.

Damn that Wei Hong, if he had just been a bit more useful, he wouldn’t have needed to attack Ganzhou City with such effort, everything was ruined by this guy.

Unable to attack up close, and now without catapults for a ranged attack, all that remained were the archers.

"How foolish can Xiao Yechi be? Knowing he can’t defeat us, yet he repeatedly sends soldiers to their deaths." Chu Lang said while shaking his head as he ate the steamed bun. _{freeweɓnovel.cøm}
