"King Yongchang, there is an emergency in Shuitian City."

The soldier rushed to Xiao Yunzhan, knelt on one knee, took out the slightly wet letter from his arms, and presented it to him with both hands.

Xiao Yunzhan took the letter and opened it, his brows instantly furrowed.

Lin Yiran, Xiao Yunhao and Wan Suyun hurried over to take a look.

Looking at the contents of the letter, the four people's faces turned very ugly.

How could such a thing happen at this critical moment?

Wan Suyun raised his eyelids and looked at Lin Yiran first.

Lin Yiran thought about it and realized that the food and fodder she left in Shuitian City was enough to feed the soldiers defending the city for two months.

There is no need to worry too much about food and fodder for the time being.

However, there were not enough soldiers to defend Shuitian City. Only 50,000 soldiers were left, and half of them were weak recruits.

However, they have been away from Shuitian City for so long, I think Zhao Hu should have recruited a lot of soldiers. A conservative estimate is that there are as many as 70,000 soldiers.

"Let's go back to the mansion and discuss it."

Lin Yiran glanced at the tired and pale-faced messenger soldier and gave Lin Changshou a look.

Lin Changshou quickly ordered the messenger soldier to be taken away to rest...

.......

"The Xiliang Kingdom suddenly sent 200,000 troops to attack Shuitian City. How should we respond?"

Xiao Yunzhan's eyes swept across the faces of everyone in the living room one by one.

As far as he knew, Xiliang Kingdom, like Daliang Kingdom, was suffering from a widespread drought throughout the country.

Speaking of which, the drought in Xiliang Kingdom is slightly more serious than theirs.

The Xiliang Kingdom suddenly launched a war at this time. Could it be that the drought was too severe and they could no longer sustain it, so they planned to burn their bridges?

Xiao Yunhao frowned slightly.

"I will take 5 troops back to Shuitian City to fight against Xiliang."

"Shuitian City has been recruiting new soldiers. Conservative estimates show that there are 7 soldiers now. Together with the soldiers I brought back, they are enough to resist the soldiers from Xiliang."

Xiao Yunhao looked at Xiao Yunzhan and continued,

"The 20 troops of Xiliang may sound intimidating, but the drought problem in Xiliang has not been solved, and the soldiers are very weak. At most, they can be considered as an army of 10."

"Zhao Hu has repelled the Xiliang army twice, and the two sides are now at a truce."

"There is no time to lose. The sooner I leave, the better."

If his guess was correct, the Queen of Xiliang suddenly sent troops because she discovered that Wu Ma Bu Guan was dead.

It just so happened that he also wanted to ask the empress to return the sword given to him by his fourth brother's wife.

It would be most appropriate for him to go back.

"I don't agree." Xiao Yunchao stood up and objected.

"Brother has already contacted General Bai, it would be inappropriate to leave now."

"It would be more appropriate for me to lead the troops back to Shuitian City."

"You are more than enough to attack the capital."

Zheng Yunyun was stunned for a moment and turned her head to look at Xiao Yunchao.

She looked at the determined expression on Xiao Yunchao's face, and immediately stood up and said,

"I am willing to go to Shuitian City with Yun Chao and defend Shuitian City together."

Although she wanted to see Emperor Wu of Liang begging for mercy with her own eyes, she wanted to fight the enemy together with her husband even more.

Xiao Yunchao turned around and looked at his wife, his eyes full of smiles, "Okay..."

His wife is much more capable than him, so he has no reason to refuse.

"What's good about that?" Xiao Yunhao looked at Xiao Yunchao.

"There's no need to worry about General Bai. With the cooperation of both sides, it will be no problem to capture the capital."

"I can go to Shuitian City alone. Your martial arts skills are still a little lacking."

Xiao Yunhao's last words directly shut Xiao Yunchao's mouth.

Xiao Yunchao bit his lip and looked at Xiao Yunhao with dissatisfaction.

He can't get over this problem because of his poor martial arts skills, right?

"Don't argue, I'll go." General Xiao stepped forward and glanced at his two sons.

"I've fought more battles than you've eaten salt."

"I have fought dozens of battles with Xiliang State's General Cong Chongqiu, who is stationed at the border of Xinyue City. I know his tactics like the back of my hand."

"As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle. It is most appropriate for me to guard Shuitian City."

The war in the capital is already a sure thing.

Let the children celebrate.

He was impatient to deal with the trivial matters after taking over the capital, which was very annoying.

"Dad!" Xiao Yunhao took a deep breath and walked to General Xiao.

"General Bai is still waiting to drink and chat with you."

"You haven't seen each other for several years. It would be inappropriate to meet for a while."

"What's inappropriate?!" Mrs. Xiao, who had settled the Bai family's family members, heard Xiao Yunhao's words as soon as she stepped into the living room.

She looked at Xiao Yunhao in confusion.

Wan Suyun quickly stood up, grabbed Madam Xiao and told her what happened.

After hearing this, Madam Xiao frowned instantly.

She didn't expect that the Xiliang Kingdom would start a war at this time.

Madam Xiao's gaze lingered on the father and his two sons for a moment.

"I also agree that the boss should go to Shuitian City."

"Old woman, you..."

"Listen to me first." Madam Xiao glared at General Xiao and continued,

"I don't need to tell you how powerful the boss's martial arts are. The most important thing is----"

"The boss's revenge must be avenged by him himself."

"If the boss doesn't have that ability, then forget it. But now that the boss has the ability to take revenge, let him go."

Although the boss refused to say what happened exactly during those years in Xiliang Kingdom, she could guess from the scars all over his body that Xiao Yunhao had an extremely difficult time during those years.

They all knew how effective the detoxification potion Ranran gave was, and it could cure many people's chronic diseases.

However, various scars can still be seen on the boss's face and hands, which shows how serious the injuries were.

As soon as Madam Xiao said this, everyone's eyes fell on the scars on Xiao Yunhao's exposed skin.

Xiao Yunzhan turned and looked at Lin Yiran.

In his heart, he also wanted his eldest brother to go, because his eldest brother knew how to communicate with Ranran, and if there was a shortage of supplies at the border, Ranran could help his eldest brother in time.

Privately, he didn't want more people to know Ranran's secret.

It would be best if the family always believed that there was a god like the God King, who favored Lin Yiran and would grant her every wish.

Lin Yiran felt Xiao Yunzhan's gaze and turned her head to look at him.

"Then go ahead, big brother."

It is indeed much more convenient for my brother to go to Shuitian City.

The main reason is that the eldest brother is decisive in killing, which can save a lot of trouble.

The person who goes to garrison Shuitian City must be a member of the Xiao family. It must be someone else if not the eldest brother, otherwise the supplies cannot be delivered accurately.

Of course, it would be better for the eldest brother with the highest martial arts skills to go.

"Okay!" Xiao Yunzhan nodded and looked at everyone in the living room.

"Let Big Brother lead the troops to garrison Shuitian City."

Wan Suyun stood up and walked to Xiao Yunhao, holding his hand.

"I will go to Shuitian City with you."

Xiao Yunhao's eyes wandered over Wan Suyun's lower abdomen and he shook his head.

"Just wait for me here."
