“I guess you didn’t watch the Battle of Red Cliff for nothing.” Zhou Ying turned her head and kissed him, then asked, “How much do you need?”

“Prepare a total of 50. If they break, we can replace them in time.”

“Alright, leave this to me.” At this point, Zhou Ying turned around and asked, “Should we send a message to the Marquis of Ding’an through Xiaxiang and get them to join in and deal with them once and for all?”

“Don’t. If word gets out, all our previous efforts will be in vain.”

“Alright then, but this way, we have to keep a close eye on the people in the residence.”

“I’ll arrange it. I’ll just need you to make the scarecrows as soon as possible.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.

After he left, Zhou Ying put away the book and called Kuihua in.

Using resting as an excuse, she returned to her room and closed the door and windows.

She put down the curtains and entered her inters.p.a.ce.

After entering, she remembered that there were no straws left.

She had no choice but to take out a batch of millet stalks, smash them flat, and tie them into scarecrows with hemp rope.

As for the joints of their arms and legs, she used an oilcloth to make the joints and applied some grease to the joints to allow them to move freely.

Finally, she used the cheapest linen she had to make a tight-fitting suit. This way, the scarecrows really looked like they were wearing clothes.

After she was done, she went to the storeroom to find a batch of fabric closest to the color of flesh and a batch of black silk fabric and made 50 fake headgear.

However, she only completed three scarecrows in one afternoon.

At night, she entered her inters.p.a.ce and finished up all 50 of them with Gu Chengrui.

After they were done, Gu Chengrui asked Zhou Ying to put them in the stable.

The next day, Captain Chu checked them at dawn and confirmed they could be used. The two then waited quietly for news from the other side.

Prime Minister Su was cautious. He sent people to scout for three consecutive nights before he made a move.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, after receiving the news that they would act, Captain Chu’s men secretly left the residence under the guise of selling firewood, transporting vegetables, and so on. Then, they quietly returned to King Rui’s Residence.

Therefore, at night, only nine guards were left at the Gu Residence.

When it was time, Gu Chengrui called all the adults in the residence over. He arranged three people into a group, and each group brought two scarecrows and formed five patrol teams to patrol the courtyard.

As for the other scarecrows, he placed them in the dormitory as sleeping adults.

At night, someone came to check on their residence. Seeing that it was still the same as usual, he heaved a sigh of relief and left.

After he left, Zhou Ying informed Gu Chengrui, who was monitoring everything inside and outside the residence.

After Gu Chengrui received the news, he heaved a sigh of relief and asked the patrol team to stop.

Zhou Ying took out two large bags of chili and mustard powder and added alcohol to make them even more pungent.

Gu Chengrui handed them to the nine guards who stayed behind and said, “Take these things with you and use them when they retreat. Be careful.”

“Lord Gu, we understand. We’ll go over now.”

“Wait, I’ve already sent someone to keep an eye on them. You guys should only head over when there’s movement over there, just in case.”

“Understood.”

About 30 minutes later, two hundred people forcefully barged into King Rui’s Residence.

Zhou Ying immediately informed Gu Chengrui, and he took his first aid kit and rushed over with the nine guards..
