Although Xiao Xiang left, the two of them could not finish the meal in peace.

There was a hurried sound from outside.

"General, it's bad! The city defense has collapsed!"

Gu Xi frowned, immediately put down the chopsticks in his hand, stood up and walked out.

Seeing this, Wei Rou also stood up to meet her.

"I'll go take a look with you."

Gu Xi paused, did not refuse, held Wei Rou's hand and walked out together with her.

The soldiers were a little surprised when they saw the general pulling his wife out together.

Gu Xi had already said in a deep voice: "What's going on?"

The soldier who came to report hurriedly explained: "There was a heavy rain a few days ago, and the moat swelled a lot. Now the city defense collapsed not long after it was built."

"Did someone have an accident?"

It was Wei Rou who asked the question.

The soldier froze for a moment, looked at Gu Xi, and didn't know whether to answer or not for a moment.

"Say."

Gu Xi's expression was not good.

"There were only a few minor injuries, but nothing serious."

Wei Rou raised her head and looked at Gu Xi upon hearing this.

"Go and see?"

Gu Xi naturally meant this.

The two walked quickly to the collapsed city defense.

Ling Yun hurriedly followed.

When we got to the scene, it was true that no one was injured, but the scene was not very optimistic, it could even be said to be a bit tragic.

At least the hard-earned city defenses have all collapsed, and even the newly built bridges show signs of collapse.

Wei Rou frowned.

Obviously, these constructions are too rough to withstand the coming and going of people.

But she remained silent all the way, following Gu Xi, listening to him ask about the situation.

In fact, this is an old problem of Yongcheng, and it has not been able to find a suitable solution. It can only be repaired after something goes wrong, but there is no way to solve the problem fundamentally.

Gu Xi said with a sullen face: "Why didn't you report it earlier? Only when something happened?"

The soldier in charge of the city defense is called Lu Xin, he is a man of five ranks and three rough men, and he hangs around Fireworks and Willow Lane day and night, now Xin has just been pulled out of Wenrou Township by his subordinates, and he still has a strong alcohol on his body.

Wei Rou had already smelled the mixed breath on him, she turned her face away, raised her hand to cover her mouth and nose, and couldn't hide her disgust.

Gu Xi glanced at her, his brows and eyes were terribly gloomy.

Seeing this, Lu Xin fell to his knees in front of Gu Xi.

It wasn't long after he was promoted, thinking that this kind of work would be fine as usual, and he would never have thought that something would happen suddenly.

Fortunately, no one died. If someone died, his head would be lost!

"General, this subordinate knows it's wrong! This will be repaired again!"

Gu Xi looked at him coldly: "How do you plan to repair it?"

Lu Xin was taken aback, and replied in a daze: "As... as usual."

Isn't it all like this?

Gu Xi has already looked at Ling Yun.

"Send people to the military camp and deal with them according to military regulations."

Ling Yun immediately stepped forward and took Lu Xin under custody.

Lu Xin looked in disbelief: "General! Although this subordinate made a mistake! But this is the first time this subordinate has committed a crime, please forgive this time! This subordinate will never dare!"

Gu Xi didn't give him another look, but said: "Take it away."

Ling Yun didn't give Lu Xin another chance to speak, knocked his head out, and carried him back to the barracks.

It rained heavily a few days ago, and the ground was still wet and muddy. Wei Rou was a little annoyed that she shouldn't be wearing a skirt today, at least it was really difficult to walk in this place.

After a few steps, the hem of the skirt was splashed with mud.

Gu Xi noticed this and hugged him directly.

Wei Rou exclaimed, put her arms around his shoulders, and said in a low voice, "General! Don't do this! There are too many people, I can go by myself."
