Chapter 682 Drawing a Map
So, Nier had to find a way to prevent the general from seeing her wound.
Nier cleverly blocked the general's sight with her body, then quickly applied some anti-itching medicine to him and finally bandaged him up carefully.
This not only relieves the pain and itching caused by the growth of the general's bones and flesh, but also prevents him from seeing the amazing recovery of his wounds.
General Li was a little flustered because he had moved his arm around randomly yesterday. He thought Ni'er would ask him why his arm injury was recovering so slowly, but unexpectedly, she did not mention it.
This way, I don't have to bother explaining myself and can be free.
Just as General Li was secretly rejoicing, Ni'er's gaze suddenly fell on him, making his heart tighten.
Ni'er stared at him, as if she wanted to say something. Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "The soldiers are running low on rations. What are your plans, General?"
General Li was slightly surprised when he heard this.
He had never expected that this little girl would actually care about the army's food and fodder.
General Li calmed himself down and replied, "As far as I know, the food and fodder will arrive in half a month. I hope we can hold out during this period."
When Ni'er heard this, her face instantly became serious.
Her eyes widened in disbelief. "Half a month? What if the enemy attacks during this time? And the soldiers are so hungry they don't even have the strength to pick up their weapons? Wouldn't they just have to watch the city being breached?"
General Li frowned after hearing what Ni'er said.
He knew very well the interests involved, but the current situation was indeed very serious and left him helpless.
Seeing this, Ni'er continued to ask, "General, haven't you thought of other ways? Like stealing the enemy's food?"
General Li gave a bitter laugh and shook his head helplessly, saying, "That's exactly what I was thinking. It's just that the enemy's defenses are extremely tight, and we can't even get close to their granary."
"All the spies we sent out before never returned, and we still haven't been able to find the exact location of the enemy's granary."
After a moment of silence, Nier suddenly asked, "Is there a place here where we can directly observe the enemy camp?"
Prince Li thought for a moment, then nodded, indicating that such a place did exist.
"However, the terrain there is very steep, and the ground is covered with moss. If you are not careful, you might slip and get injured... or even fall off the cliff." Prince Li's words revealed a hint of worry.
However, Ni'er didn't seem to be frightened by Prince Li's words. She said with a firm look, "Take me to see it."
Seeing that Ni'er was so determined, Prince Li could no longer stop her, so he immediately sent several trusted men to protect Ni'er's safety.
Of course, the princess would not miss this opportunity and she insisted on going with them.
A group of people walked towards that place.
As they were getting closer to their destination, Nier suddenly stopped and took out a few insoles from her arms.
"Everyone, stick this on the soles of your shoes to prevent slipping." Ni'er said as she distributed the insoles to everyone.
The soldiers were naturally filled with contempt and disdain for Nier and the princess. They thought, "What could these two little girls possibly be capable of? They actually dreamed of raiding the enemy's granary. What a foolish dream!"
However, since this was the general's order, they could not openly disobey it and could only agree on the surface, just as if they were playing with the two little girls.
After several people glued the insoles that Nier had given them on the soles of their shoes, they couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, they really don't slip anymore!"
"Yeah, this thing is really amazing!"
"I don't even feel slippery when I step on the moss!"
Although everyone praised the anti-slip insoles, it did not change their inner thoughts.
They still felt that accompanying Nier and the princess here was a pure waste of time.
Several people walked forward cautiously and finally reached the edge of the cliff.
Standing on the edge of the cliff, they looked down and saw a bottomless abyss, which was creepy.
Nier kicked a small stone down curiously. After a long time, she heard the echo of the stone falling to the bottom of the valley.
The echo reverberated through the valley, as if telling of the steepness of the terrain here.
"The terrain here is so dangerous, it should be difficult for the enemy to climb up." Ni'er said to herself.
Nier spent a lot of money to buy a magical X-ray machine from the system.
This perspective instrument looks like a telescope, but its functions go far beyond the scope of an ordinary telescope.
Nier picked up the X-ray machine and pointed it at the enemy camp.
Through the lens of the perspective device, the layout of the enemy camp instantly appeared before her eyes, and everything became clearly visible.
She carefully observed the enemy camp and found several places that looked suitable for storing food, and they were heavily guarded.
However, when she used the X-ray machine to take a closer look, she was surprised to find that these places were not actually real granaries, and some were even empty.
Nier continued searching and finally found a real granary in an inconspicuous corner.
Nier was secretly glad in her heart. If it weren't for this X-ray machine, she would probably be confused by the superficial phenomena.
After some effort, Nier finally found the enemy's real food storage location.
These grains were not placed in a centralized location, but were scattered across the country to prevent them from being destroyed all at once.
Nier made a rough estimate and found that the total amount of grain was about 200,000 dan.
If we can get all this food here, our soldiers will definitely be able to hold on until the supplies arrive.
Nier quickly took out a pen and paper and began to draw a map of the enemy camp.
She specifically marked the location of the granary on the map so that subsequent operations could go more smoothly.
Those people looked at the drawings Ni'er had drawn, their faces filled with amazement, and they all praised:
“This painting is so detailed!”
"Yes, with this map, it will be much easier for us to do things in the future!"
At this moment, one of them suddenly raised a question: "However, how do you know that these are the places where the food is stored?"
Nier raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a mysterious smile and said, "I just know it."
When everyone heard her answer like this, although they still had doubts in their hearts, they didn't dare to ask any further questions.
After finishing the drawing, Nier stood up with the others and walked back to the camp.
As soon as she returned to the camp, Nier couldn't wait to see the general. She handed him the blueprint and said, "This is what I achieved today."
