Liao Ming led his soldiers to clean up the battlefield, then counted the casualties, and finally appeared in front of Nangong Xu with a paradox.

"Tell me about the past few days."

Nangong Xu's eyes were stern, and his attitude was completely different from when he spoke to Dongfang Li just now.

"Back to the prince, the attacks of Daru's army have become more and more intense in the past few days. They probably want to capture Liangcheng before the prince arrives. Today, my subordinates used tung oil and flint."

"How about the battle damage?"

"When my subordinates took over, General Chahar's men were less than [-]. Now, excluding the wounded, there are less than [-] soldiers capable of fighting."

When he heard that it was less than [-], Nangong Xu glanced at Chaha, making the latter tremble all over.

"My king only brought [-] people here first. The rest of the army will not arrive until two days later. Who is leading Daru's army now?"

"Back to my lord, it's Daru's famous general - General Wahda."

Wahda is Nangong Xu's old rival. Both of them are familiar with each other's fighting methods. With the number of people unequal, it is obviously difficult for Nangong Xu to fight against Wahda.

"Wahda's withdrawal today is due to my sudden appearance. Once he learns of our number, I'm afraid the attack will be even more intense."

"The Daru army is good at fighting on flat ground, and it is very easy for them to mobilize their troops. They only need to cross the low-lying swamps. If they start to mobilize their troops now, will their reinforcements precede our reinforcements?"

Dongfang Li's words undoubtedly made matters worse.

"Also, how much food do they have now? Can it support them for a long enough time to fight? Now that the weather is getting warmer, there is a whole piece of grassland behind them, and we..."

"What the princess said makes sense. This matter is what the king is worried about. If we cannot expel Daru's army in the shortest time, then by the time the grass grows and the orioles fly, I am afraid this battle will last longer. "

Nangong Xu frowned. What he didn't say was that it was only Daru Jin who was committing crimes. If other small countries around him were also involved, this war would probably not end for a year and a half...

"Your Majesty... maybe we can let Daru's army rest for two days without losing any blood. We will use these two days to cut off his reinforcements and create some trouble for them so that they can no longer send reinforcements."

Dongfang Li glanced at the military exercise map and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Who made this military exercise picture?"

"Back to Princess, it was done by a subordinate. Is there any problem?"

Liao Ming glanced at Dongfang Li in surprise. Their princess was really different.

"No problem, it's just an accident. But...here, here, and here. Although these three locations are not marked on the map, if a sneak attack is made from here, this Liang City, even if it is guarded by the prince, will probably be difficult. Keep it.”

Dongfang Li pointed to three obscure paths with a small wooden stick on the side.

"Princess, the three places you just mentioned are in difficult terrain, and most of them are steep cliffs..." So no one will choose them.

"Really? How about we make a bet on whether someone will break into these three places in the past two days?"

Of course Dongfang Li understood what Liao Ming's words meant, but she was not annoyed. Instead, she looked at him with a smile.

Xun Jian and others standing next to her and Nangong Xu looked at Liao Ming with sympathy.

"I wonder what the princess's bet is?"

Liao Ming is like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

"How about the loser being left to his own devices for three days?"

"You are the princess..."

The implication is, who dares to dispatch your old man at will?

"Don't worry, I'm willing to admit defeat. No matter whether we win or lose, the prince will not participate in the bet, and he will not avenge himself, right prince?"

"Yes."

Nangong Xu looked helplessly at his little princess, who was really tricking his subordinates all the time. When she was in the palace before, as long as someone had different opinions, she would use a bet to solve the problem. She was so angry that everyone in the house obeyed her.

"Okay, then I will dare to make a bet with the princess."

Chaha and Chang Han looked at each other and saw melancholy in each other's eyes.

"Brother, take care."

"Take care brother."

"Brother Liao, why can't you think about it so hard?"

"General Liao, you are still too young."

After Liao Ming agreed to the bet, the four people in Xunjian expressed their concern one after another.

"It's boring for you to be like this, Xunyu, come here, give me this list, help me prepare the things, Xunyang, you go with me at night... With your Qinggong, if we are discovered , take me to run away with you...is that okay?"

Dongfang Li also immediately started making arrangements after Liao Ming agreed.

"If the princess is referring to the distance from Liangcheng to Lu's army, then there is no problem with my subordinate's Qinggong."

Xunyang estimated the distance between the two and nodded lightly.

"Ali, let's have fun, but don't risk your life."

Nangong Xu knew that Dongfang Li never did anything he was unsure of, but this matter was dangerous after all. Once discovered by Daru's soldiers, a melee would be inevitable.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. In addition, I have to ask the prince to arrange some capable people to guard the three places I just mentioned. Don't really give the enemy an opportunity."

"it is good."

Nangong Xu raised his hand and was about to rub Dongfang Li's head. After catching a glimpse of other people around him, he put it down again.

"Princess, what about me?"

Liao Ming looked at himself being left alone and couldn't help but ask a question.

"General Liao has worked hard defending the city these days. I will ask the prince to grant you two days of vacation to rest well. We should have a tough battle to fight in two days."

Dongfang Li patted Liao Ming's shoulder, and he instantly grimaced in pain.

"How's the injury?"

Nangong Xu saw the blood seeping from the edge of his armor at a glance.

"Back to my lord, my subordinate is fine. On the battlefield, this little injury is nothing."

Liao Ming calmed down for a while, feeling that the pain was no longer so painful, and then he dared to speak back.

"You're already injured, why are you trying to be brave? Xunyu, give him a pill of medicine and watch him rest for the past two days, lest he collapses and leaves you with a lot of things to worry about, your prince."

Liao Ming, who was very moved just now, turned ugly after hearing Dongfang Li's words, as if he had eaten Xiang. The emotional princess was concerned about him, but she was just afraid that he would fall and tire the prince...

"Okay, brother, I can't stand it anymore. Then your life will probably be even more difficult in the future. You know, in the eyes of the princess, anyone who has anything to do with our prince must be the prince."

"Xunyu missed a little bit."

"what?"

Xunyu turned around and looked at Xunfeng who rarely spoke.

"If it has nothing to do with our prince, the princess will find a way to make it do, and then she will put the prince first..."
