Chapter 271
"Yes, this thing is really useless to us." In fact, it's not that the thing is useless, but that Li Hao is too useful.
As a healing medicine, the secret recipe of Xiao Huan Dan has been collected by the Shaolin monk. And because the materials for making Xiao Huan Dan are too scarce, even if Shaolin tries its best, it can only make 10 to 20 pills a year.
But this thing that is regarded as a miracle drug by the people of Jianghu is actually sold in piles by Li Hao.
And judging from the number of jade bottles he just gave to Zuo Xiang and Murong Fu, this guy probably took out no less than a thousand at a time.
This Xiao Huan Dan is worth ten thousand taels of gold, but there is still no market for it. If this pile of Xiao Huan Dan is auctioned, the gold sold can probably make Li Hao rich enough to rival a country in an instant.
And even with such a mountain of gold, Li Hao actually took it out directly, diluted it with boiling water and gave it to ordinary soldiers.
Prodigal son, I have never seen such a prodigal son since I grew up. Compared with Li Hao, the prodigal son Yang Kang back then can't even be ranked.
"Everyone, listen, this is a magic medicine given by the general. After drinking it, you can quickly recover from injuries and replenish your physical strength. Everyone must remember the general's kindness and swear allegiance to the general until death." As the second family general of the Li family, Li Hu couldn't help but start to build momentum for Li Hao.
This Li Hu already looks like a qualified lackey.
"Swear allegiance to the general until death, swear allegiance to the general until death..." On the city wall, the tired guards held wooden bowls in their hands, shouted allegiance to the general, and then lined up to get water from the pot.
"It's amazing, this is simply a magic medicine! I didn't expect the general to be so kind that he took out such a good thing for us to take." After a guard drank the water in the wooden bowl in one gulp, he couldn't help but sigh.
As soon as the bowl of water entered his stomach, a warm current flowed out from the dantian, and then radiated to the internal organs, seven meridians and eight vessels.
The originally exhausted look instantly became clear and full of energy, and the injuries suffered in the past few days of fighting actually began to recover slowly.
As the guards drank the diluted Xiao Huan Dan potion one by one, their spirits immediately became vigorous.
This Xiao Huan Dan was prepared for warriors, so compared to these ordinary soldiers, its medicinal effect seemed too magical.
Such a magical scene made the soldiers guarding the city almost worship Li Hao as a god.
"Hey, brother, you don't seem to be from our group?" Of course, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are gangs.
The guards are stationed on the city wall according to their usual military units, and each iron pot is managed and used by a fixed military unit.
Therefore, the Xiao Huan Dan potion in the iron pot is also shared by this small group of people.
"Brother, please be kind and let me have a bowl of water. I'm from the squad next door." The soldier who came to ask for water had a sharp face and looked smart.
"Tell me, why do you have a big iron pot there? Why do you come here to drink water?" The leading guard soldier asked the soldier who was drinking water.
"Brother, you know that this iron pot was used to boil gold juice before." The soldier who was drinking water whispered.
"What's the big deal? Didn't our iron pot boil gold juice before?" The people in the small group laughed when they heard the words of the soldier who was drinking water.
They were all big soldiers, all rough men, who were not afraid of death, so why did they care about these things.
"Yes, they were all boiled with gold juice. But your pot was repeatedly cleaned before, while our pot was simply wiped." The soldier who was drinking water said shyly.
"Fuck, there is such a thing. Who is responsible for washing your pot? Aren't you going to beat him?" The soldier's words shocked the group of people next to him.
"Actually, I am the one responsible for washing the pot, but my teammates don't know it yet." The soldier's eyes were full of fear.
If his brothers knew that the pot was not washed at all, I don't know if they would beat him to death.
This is not the only thing like this. There are countless pots on the entire city wall that have been washed, and how many pots have not even been wiped.
Anyway, on the entire city wall, the water in the pots that were thrown in Xiao Huan Dan was drunk clean. Then the soldiers who had eaten and drunk enough to recover their strength began to chase the guys who washed the pots and beat them hard.
After drinking this bowl of water, everyone had mixed feelings.
The rebels outside the city were just about to launch another attack. When they saw that the guards on the city wall were full of energy and had the strength toWhen we beat people, we were dumbfounded.
We were exhausted and had difficulty walking, but you were all like chicken blood. How can we live like this!
"Sir, the garrison soldiers have changed a lot." In the rebel camp, the head of the Huyan family folded up the clairvoyance in his hand and reported to Zhang Zhongjian.
"Hmph, what are you making a fuss about? People from the main world, how can they not have their own trump cards." Zhang Zhongjian snorted coldly.
After speaking, Zhang Zhongjian frowned. The siege lasted for a whole week, and the Li family members in various places received the news that the royal city was besieged.
These Li family members usually intrigue against each other, fighting to the death for the throne, and bleeding.
But once outsiders intervene, it will be another matter. Although Tuoba Tao and the Li family are originally one family, in the eyes of the Li family, Tuoba is Tuoba, Li is Li, why should my Li family give up the country to you?
If the royal city fell, the royal power of the Li family would fall into the hands of others. No one knew what would happen at that time, and it was still unknown whether Tuoba Tao would treat the Li family members well.
In order to maintain their superior status and wealthy life, the royal children of the Li family scattered all over the country began to spend all their family wealth, recruit soldiers, and form an army to march north to defend the king.
Just now, Zhang Zhongjian received a report from his subordinates that an army was found 30 miles away from the royal city to defend the king.
However, the number of people in this army was relatively small. Except for the leader who ran away, the rest were wiped out by the patrolling troops.
After receiving this news, Zhang Zhongjian was completely numb. Before besieging the royal city, he had made full preparations.
What he didn't expect was that Li Hao's means were too powerful. Relying on 3,000 guards and the remnants of Yipintang, plus the private armies of major families, he actually blocked the siege of his own army of hundreds of thousands. This is too unscientific.
