Chapter 298
"Sister Xiu!"

"Fang Zilan!"

Two voices came from far to near, and two figures, one short and one tall, ran to Fang Zilan's side, it was Zhen Zhu and A Wan.After the two confirmed that she was fine, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine." Fang Zilan pointed her sword at the ground and stood up with her body supported.A Wan and Zhen Zhu supported her arms from left to right, supporting her to stand up straight.

"Sister Xiu..." Zhen Zhu called out timidly. Fang Zilan's hands trembled, but she still held her hand tightly, "Zhen Zhu, are you afraid of death?"

"I'm not afraid." Zhen Zhu said without hesitation, but there was an obvious look of fear on her face.Her palms were covered with fine sweat, which wet Fang Zilan's hands.

"I'm so tired of you, I'm sorry." Fang Zilan's voice was low, but Zhen Zhu suddenly shook off her hand, avoided taking a few steps and knelt in front of her, "Sister Xiu, Zhen Zhu was rescued by you. There were six years. Honey... My sister once taught me that people don't want to live a long life, but only want to die well. If Zhen Zhu can rush to Qiluo City to deliver a letter, and accompany sister Xiu to go through this experience, it is death No more complaints."

"Silly girl." Fang Zilan stretched out her hand, and Zhen Zhu took her hand, squeezing out a smile and said: "My sister said, some people live their whole lives without doing anything and achieve nothing, and some people only live for a short period of ten years , but it is thick and colorful, bright and comfortable, Zhen Zhu would rather be the latter."

Fang Zilan smiled and did not speak, and looked at Awan again, but before she could speak, Awan said first: "You said when you were in the capital that you would pay for your life in Qiluo City, since I agreed , there is no reason to repent."

She raised her eyebrows as she said, "But I'm ugly to say before, you must not think about sending yourself to death and leaving me behind. If you die, I won't live either."

"Okay." Fang Zilan nodded, "You help me down the tower, let's go see how many people are left in the city, and prepare for the final battle."

A Wan and Zhen Zhu helped Fang Zilan down from the tower, and saw Deputy General Cao and Zhou Lang waiting below. Both of them were disheveled and covered in blood. They looked extremely embarrassed, but their eyes were as firm as ever.

"Boss." Deputy General Cao limped up to Fang Zilan. She waved her hand to indicate that she was fine, and then asked, "How many people are there in the city now?"

"In the city?" Zhou Lang was stunned for a moment, and then realized what she meant, "There are still soldiers and civilians in the city, and nearly half of them are wounded."

Fang Zilan pursed her lips, "Deputy General Zhou, Lao Cao, tomorrow your soldiers will be divided into two groups, one to guard the city gate and the other to protect the people. Count all the weapons and distribute them to everyone. Give me the bow and arrow, and I will guard on the tower. There are also archers in the army, let them go up the tower with me. As for A Wan and Zhen Zhu..."

"I'll be with Vice-General Zhou." A Wan interrupted her unceremoniously, "Although I'm not good at skills, I'm good at poisoning and plotting. Being by Vice-General Zhou's side won't drag him down."

Fang Zilan glanced at A Wan helplessly, and said: "I didn't intend to let you idle, you wait a moment, I have other arrangements. Zhen Zhu, you follow Lao Cao among the common people, don't be reckless, the main thing is to save your life. "

"Okay." Zhen Zhu responded, and A Wan asked curiously, "What do you want me to do?"

"Go and distribute all the brimstone and fire nitrate that I had collected before to the wounded soldiers. According to the blueprint I gave you earlier, a team of five, go to the place I marked and wait." Fang Zilan was expressionless, and Ah Wan was shocked. , "You mean..."

She didn't continue, Fang Zilan nodded slightly and said: "Yes, now is the time of last resort. Although it may be very difficult to stop the Miluo people in this way, I would rather burn jade and stone and destroy everything than give it to the Miluo people. Leave a penny behind."

A Wan touched the blueprint hidden in his bosom, and resolutely agreed: "Okay, I will live up to the trust."

"Awan, be careful." Fang Zilan took a deep look at her, her eyes were filled with tears and she smiled like a flower, "Fang Zilan, you too, be careful. See you tomorrow."

After she finished speaking, she folded her hands in front of her body, saluted solemnly, and turned to leave.

"Boss, I'm going." Deputy General Cao cupped his fists and saluted, and Zhou Lang also saluted, "Lord Fang, I'm going too."

Fang Zilan pushed Zhen Zhu to Deputy General Cao, took a deep breath and said, "Go, see you tomorrow." After she finished speaking, she saluted the three of them respectfully, watched them leave, and went up the tower again.

The whole night, Fang Zilan didn't see anyone except Zhou Lang who came to the tower to deliver a bow and arrow and brought an archer. Everyone stuck to their positions.

Fang Zilan sat on the ground, half-asleep and half-awake, unable to relax. It was not until the sky was bright that she felt that she had regained some strength.

She stood up and looked far away, but found no trace of the Miluo people, feeling a little strange.It stands to reason that the city is about to collapse, and it is impossible for the Miluo people to remain silent at this time.She waited for a while, and finally sat back down again.

The weather is hot in summer, and the armor on her body is uncomfortable, but Fang Zilan dare not take off the armor casually.She raised her hand to wipe off the sweat, and watched the sun rise higher and higher, and a vague idea came to her mind——

The Miluo people knew that they would fight to the death, so they deliberately procrastinated to waste their fighting spirit and patience.

Thinking of this, she smiled wryly, why bother?Even if they fight to the death, a mere few hundred people can't stop tens of thousands of iron hooves.

"Master Fang." The archer at the side handed over the water bottle, "Drink some water."

"Thank you." Fang Zilan drank the water and returned the kettle, only to find that the archer's left hand has no little finger, and the whole hand is packed tightly, leaving only four fingers outside.

The archer saw that her eyes fell on his left hand, and hurriedly put his hand behind his back.

Fang Zilan said quietly: "Why are you injured in such a state, and you still have to go up the tower?"

"It's okay, I can still draw the bow." The archer laughed and said, "I'm good at shooting." As if afraid that Fang Zilan would not believe it, he took the bow next to him casually, and was stopped by her when he was about to draw the bow, " how old are you?"

"." The archer retracted his bow, and Fang Zilan's lips hooked slightly, "I have a friend in the northern border, who is as old as you, and is also a good archer."

The archer's eyes lit up after hearing her words.She smiled even wider, "When this battle is over, I'll introduce you to each other, and you can compete with him."

"Is it really possible?" The archer was full of anticipation, and Fang Zilan smiled and said seriously: "Of course, I, Fang Zilan, have never said anything that I have said."

"Thank you, Mr. Fang." The archer looked at Fang Zilan gratefully, and said, "Mr. Fang, my family is in Shitan Town in the southeast, and the plague was severe in the town before. If it were not for Mr. Fang, my family would not be able to survive. After the plague is over, I will leave I came to Qiluo City with General Shen. Last night, when Vice General Zhou asked about the archers in the camp, I came here without thinking. I just wanted to meet Mr. Fang and thank you personally. Now that I can fight side by side with you, I Die without regret."

"It's my honor to fight side by side with you." Fang Zilan heard the sound of horseshoes under the city, and exchanged glances with the archer beside him. The two picked up their bows and arrows at the same time and hid beside the city wall.

The two were single and weak, and it didn't take long for the back of the archer's hand to turn red.Seeing this, Fang Zilan yelled at him: "Take a break, I'll hold on..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she saw the arrow passing by, and the archer fell in response. His pupils suddenly dilated, and a flower of blood bloomed in front of her.

Fang Zilan dodged and hid behind the wall, watching the person who was chatting and laughing with her just now turned into one of the many corpses in a blink of an eye. The surging anger and powerlessness made her clenched her fingers involuntarily.

The next moment, someone shouted under the city tower: "The city is broken!"

Immediately there was a loud bang, and the city gate fell heavily to the ground.

Fang Zilan lifted the plum sword and rushed down the tower without hesitation.Her eyes are full of Miluo people, and she has only one thought in her mind——

Even if she died, she would kill them to be buried with them!
 It's dawn, this battle, there should be a result...
