Adviser should be self-improvement

"Xie Shu, Xie Wei, man, you are a coward!"

"A bastard born of a dog, a bitch, has a heart but no guts!"

"Your grandpa is already here, why don't you come down and kneel and lick! Grandpa may spare your whole body!"

There was a lot of cursing in the city, and the indecent words were harsh and unpleasant. The guard's face was tense and trembled uncontrollably. He glanced at the uniform army in front of him. The colleagues around him took a deep breath, suppressed their anger and asked: "Mr. Shall we ignore it?"

"Yes."

"This......"

If the other party just couldn't let go of the scolding just because of his face, then after scolding Xie Qiongjiu for so long but still indifferent, clusters of small flames rose in his heart. Xie Qiongjiu and the Pingzhou soldiers were scolded bloody, the Pingzhou guards' faces were ashen, and their teeth were grinding.

The guard gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Xie, how can he bear it?"

"I don't know, it's not us who are scolding after all." He was already a bit self-defeating.

The newly recruited general Ning Tao put his hands behind his back with a dull face: "Okay, shut up, Master Xie told us to endure, of course he has his reasons."

The guards looked at each other slightly, and said dejectedly: "Yes."

The guards suddenly came to report: "General Ning, many people suddenly surrounded the gate of the city, calling for us to open the gate to fight!"

General Ning was surprised: "What?"

He quickly walked to his side and looked down, as expected, he saw a lot of people huddled together. Those people murmured dissatisfaction, complaining that General Ning and others were acting like cowards and boosting other people's ambitions. The Xiangyang Army and the others spoke so harshly, and there was no dirty word, but it just made people feel sad.

The guard couldn't bear it any longer: "General Ning, we really want to—"

General Ning rubbed his forehead and closed his eyes slightly: "How many times have you reported to Military Division Xie just now?"

"Return to General Ning's words, a total of two times."

"It's only three things, so let's report it again." General Ning opened his eyes and slammed his fist on the stone brick, "I'll go in person!"

When he came to the Xie Mansion, General Ning realized that he was not the only one who couldn't bear it. There were two staff members who had met at the Prince's Mansion a few days ago walking outside the door. General Ning, who was approaching, just heard one of them scolding the word 'coward' in a low voice.

General Ning understood that these two people must be the same as himself, and came to persuade Xie Qiongjiu to order to go out of the city to fight.

Even these smooth-tongued literati couldn't persuade the military adviser. General Ning, who only knew how to lead troops to fight, couldn't help but feel a retreat, but thinking of the people who were shouting endlessly, General Ning still gritted his teeth and raised walked in.

The inside of Xie's mansion was orderly and orderly, and there was no panic or uneasiness about being overwhelmed by the army. The servants were doing their own thing, which made General Ning suddenly understand, and casually caught a passing servant: "Excuse me, thank you." Where is the military division now?"

The servants took a look at him and saw that he was wearing a general's attire, so he pointed to the compartment without any surprise: "I'm drinking in the room." After saying that, he turned and continued to do his own thing.

General Ning twitched his mouth, glanced at the door of the compartment, walked up, paused, raised his hand to tap lightly, and asked, "Mr. Xie, are you inside?"

After waiting for a long time, I heard a lazy "come in" from inside.

The door was only ajar, and when he opened it, the scene inside the room made General Ning's jaw drop to the ground.

Xie Qiongjiu, whose belt was loose and most of his happiness leaked out, raised the wine jar in his hand unsteadily, raised the corner of his brow lightly: "I haven't seen you for a long time, why is General Ning coming to Xie's mansion to be a guest when he is free?"

Obviously we met in the meeting hall the day before yesterday!

General Ning's forehead was throbbing, and every word seemed to be difficult to utter: "Mr. Xie, you, you look like this, what kind of dignity do you have?!"

Xie Qiongjiu smiled, but the curvature of the corners of his mouth became much lighter. He sat up with his arms propped up, and took another sip of his drink: "Finally, what's the important thing for General Ning to come this time?"

The other party's tone became serious, and General Ning was naturally embarrassed to hold on to it any longer. Besides, Xie Qiongjiu was appointed by Qin Ce to be the deputy governor of Pingzhou. It's a disrespect.

General Ning considered his words, and said: "The Xiangyang army has been yelling and cursing outside the city for many days, and the people have not left the city for many days. They all feel panic and gather at the gate of the city, begging us to fight."

Xie Qiongjiu said: "Oh, you are talking about this."

"Mr. Xie." A calm young voice suddenly came from beside him, "I don't know how to fight this one."

General Ning was startled, and looked towards the source of the voice, only to see Cao Yuan who had been standing aside for an unknown amount of time, and opened his mouth slightly in shock: He obviously didn't see this person just now!

wrong.

Ning rewarded his frown, he should have noticed it, but subconsciously ignored this person.

Why would he ignore this boy?

The young man held a few pieces of strange wood in his hand. The wood had different shapes, and the sunken place happened to fit with another piece. Xie Qiongjiu was obviously more concerned about this piece of wood in the young man's hand than what General Ning said about the restlessness of the people. For a trivial matter, he leaned forward and said, "Where can't it be?"

When General Ning saw this, he didn't care about Cao Yuan's sense of existence, and said angrily: "Mr. Xie, my lord has handed over the entire Pingzhou to you. Is this how you want to repay the lord's kindness!?"

Cao Yuan raised his head suddenly, and the coldness in his slightly condensed eyes disappeared. Qin Ce had ordered that if someone disrespects Xie Qiongjiu, throw it as far away as possible.

Xie Qiongjiu slowly disassembled Cao Yuan's misspelled words, and took the opponent's hand that had already completed the offensive: "You misremembered the picture, spell it again."

"Oh." All the murderous intent disappeared in an instant, Cao Yuan obediently lowered his head, holding a small piece of wood and racking his brains to think.

Xie Qiongjiu raised the corner of his mouth, looked up at General Ning who instinctively retreated a few steps, still lazily said: "My lord handed over Pingzhou to me, of course he has his own considerations, not just General Ning The general who defends the city can come and speak."

The heartbeat was so fast that it seemed to jump out of his chest, and the panting that was choked in his throat finally regained his regular movement consciously. General Ning lowered his head in disbelief, the hand that used to hold the knife was shaking violently, while he himself But he didn't feel this, just like it wasn't his own hand.

What a coercive aura this is, such a person with high martial arts is willing to follow Xie Qiongjiu's instructions.

"Please...thank you, Military Advisor, for forgiveness."

Don't dare to underestimate the person in front of you.

Xie Qiongjiu was happy to spare the effort of suppressing General Ning, found a comfortable position, slumped back on the collapsed bed, and drank indiscriminately: "Except for those people who are crowded at the gate of the city, who else can endure it?" Can't stop scolding?"

General Ning hesitated.

"Are there still guarding soldiers? By the way, there are also the two who walked out just now and the four who walked out two days ago."

General Ning raised his head: "Mr. Xie knows this, why can he endure it until now?"

"What should I do if I can't bear it?" Xie Qiongjiu half-rolled his eyelids, "Give Pingzhou over?"

Xie Qiongjiu has always lost his accent when speaking, and his erratic words always make people wonder whether he is fake or genuine. General Ning is one of the people who don't understand.

Gritting his teeth, General Ning said frankly: "We can fight!"

Xie Qiongjiu reacted a bit: "Fight?"

"Yes." Only this point, General Ning felt that he had a reason, so he said it without hesitation.

"Well, let me ask you, how many soldiers and horses are there in Pingzhou now?"

"15."

"How many soldiers and horses are there in the Xiangyang Army outside the city?"

"About one hundred thousand."

Xie Qiongjiu put down the wine jar, looked directly at the other party, and his voice became more and more serious: "Who told you that the other party only has one hundred thousand?"

Xie Qiongjiu clearly questioned his words, but General Ning couldn't help retorting: "Of course we saw it."

Xie Qiongjiu smiled instead: "You can tell? There are many mountains and forests around Pingzhou, and you haven't left the city yet, how much can you tell?"

"This......"

Xie Qiongjiu threw the letter in his hand to him: "Look at this."

General Ning calmed down and opened the letter. When he first read it, he had no expression on his face. The more he read it, the more ugly his face became. .”

"Xiangyang is only missing 10 soldiers, but Youdu and other counties under the jurisdiction of King Xiangyang have also lost soldiers and horses without anyone noticing. The total is 10 people. Where did these [-] people go? General Ning, do you know?"

General Ning's face was pale, he was speechless.

"The opponent has a total of 20 soldiers and horses, which is not much more." Xie Qiongjiu shook the wine jar, "I will send [-] soldiers and horses to fight, and it is possible that in the middle of the fight, someone will make dumplings and attack them back and forth. It is possible that the other [-] people will directly find another strange path and attack our city of Pingzhou from behind."

At this moment, General Ning regretted his disrespect to Xie Qiongjiu just now, and wanted to apologize, but Xie Qiongjiu waved his hand first.

"But the other party is so arrogant, we can't bear it for nothing." Xie Qiongjiu lazily put his money in one hand, "You send someone to the busiest market to make an announcement, summon more than 20 sharp-tongued women with a lot of money, and let them Go to the city wall and scold the Xiangyang army, whoever can blush the opponent will be rewarded."

"Mr. Xie?" General Ning was dumbfounded.

"By the way, all the people at the gate of the city should be arrested and interrogated one by one who instructed them." Xie Qiongjiu yawned, "If you have nothing else to do, go out, and come back if you have something to do."

Cao Yuan stopped his hands immediately when he heard the sound, got up and pushed General Ning out who was unable to react in time.

Xie Qiongjiu looked at him with a smile: "Good boy."

Cao Yuan came over, did not continue to puzzle, and sat beside Xie Qiongjiu: "Mr. Xie."

Xie Qiongjiu hummed, let go of the wine jar, his eyelids drooped uncontrollably: "What's the matter?"

"Why do you have to tell him clearly?" According to Xie Qiongjiu's temperament, if he is annoyed to death, he will make more decisions, and he has little interest in explaining clearly to others.

What's more, Xie Qiongjiu was extremely exhausted at this time, and he planned to take a break just now, but was dragged up to deal with the two staff members.

"He is the general who defends the city, and anyone can shake him, but he can't." Xie Qiongjiu said confusedly, "Remember, if you become a general who defends the city in the future, or a marshal who commands the entire army, you can't be like him. So, you know?"

The boy nodded, still asking: "What is he like?"

"stupid."

The boy paused: "Then what do I look like?"

Xie Qiongjiu said: "It's also stupid, but it's much better than him."

The young man was not angry, and thought for a while: "Are people like Mr. Chu and the prince considered smart?"

"Ah."

"Then will Mr. Xie be lonely?" The young man asked whatever he thought of, completely unintentionally, "So many people don't understand you." Mr. Chu has a prince anyway.

"..."

After not hearing Xie Qiongjiu's response for a long time, the young man lowered his head and found that Xie Qiongjiu's eyes were slightly closed, his chest heaved evenly, and he seemed to have fallen asleep.

The lips lost their original rosiness, the cheeks became even paler to transparent, the eyelashes fluttered slightly, which was a symbol of restless sleep, and there was a circle of black shadows under the eyes, probably because he had not had a good rest for many days.

However, Xie Qiongjiu behaved too freely, as if the sky was falling, and he could deal with it calmly with a smile, so General Ning didn't notice his fatigue, and neither did these staff.

Cao Yuan, who came to Xie Qiongjiu's side, found out, but he didn't know what he could do for Xie Qiongjiu. Qin Ce didn't entrust him with the responsibility of defending the city. The biggest reason was because he had been vacant for 21 years. As is normal in the world, it takes time to make up for it.

Naturally, he didn't understand why Xie Poongjiu was tired.

The people sent out by the Xiangyang army to scold are powerful enough and their voices are loud enough, but they can't stand up to the vixens who have experienced many battles in the street. Their voices are not loud, but they are better than shrill. The bead chain firecracker blurted out, and before the Xiangyang Army even had time to react, they were blushed by the content of the words. Many people retreated to the back of the line in desperation. He couldn't help walking back with a dull face, looking up to the sky and doubting life.

"Xie Qiongjiu's trick is too vicious!"

"That's right, what are women involved in the matter of fighting?"

"And I still can't forget those words, I...fuck."

Thinking back to those people I heard just now, everyone was excited, the more they thought about it, the more aggrieved they felt, and they turned to look at King Xiangyang: "My lord, Xie Poongjiu is determined not to fight, what should we do next?"

King Xiangyang tugged on the reins casually, his eyes darkened, and his fighting spirit was evident. Seeing this, Gongsun Ji stopped him and said, "My lord, Pingzhou's defense equipment is complete, and the next strategy is to forcibly attack the city."

"So what." King Xiangyang lowered his eyelids, "My good nephew won't be able to come back for the time being. Li Wen was caught by three bears. Isn't it the best time to attack the city now?"

"My lord." Gongsun Ji bowed and said, "In this chess game, what you want is the whole world, not just Pingzhou."

The King of Xiangyang sneered, "The world?" Then he reined in his horse and gave him a sideways glance, "Since it's a chess game, I don't want to lose my interest too quickly. There are too many 25 people, and there are 15 in Pingzhou City. I will leave you with 15 people, and you can handle the rest yourself."

On the battlefield, it may be unbelievable to say this, but the generals seemed to be used to it, and no one dared to refute it. Gongsun Ji paused and bowed to accept the order.

The king of Xiangyang left as soon as he said he would, and a hundred thousand soldiers and horses left in a mighty way, which caused a lot of commotion. After the king of Xiangyang left completely, the generals dared to complain to Gongsun Ji: "Mr. What do you want to do?" His thoughts are always so clear.

After following the King of Xiangyang for so many years, and passing the throne many times, it was all the choice of the King of Xiangyang's self-consciousness. Gongsun Ji's mood also changed from excitement to helplessness to numbness, and his current thinking mode turned towards Xiangyang Wang approached the trend.

Seeing the direction in which King Xiangyang left, Gongsun Ji sighed in his heart: Probably he wanted to lose.

The door of Lu Chuanfeng's residence was knocked in the middle of the night, and the first thing he saw after opening the door was Xie Qiongjiu, who smiled without guilt.

Under the empty city wall, a small corner suddenly protruded from the flat land. The hammer protruding from the soil was a little cautious. After a long time, no movement was felt. The people in the cave finally let go of their courage and continued digging.

Humming and humming, he opened a big hole on the top of his head that could allow people to pass through, and the Xiangyang soldier couldn't wait to crawl out. After climbing a few steps, several pairs of feet suddenly appeared in the sight range.

The companions below were still urging, and the Xiangyang soldier who was half buried in the cave raised his head stiffly, Xie Qiongjiu squatted down, smiled and made a welcome gesture to him, and then snapped his fingers.

The Pingzhou soldiers surrounded him in an instant, and countless feet landed on the Xiangyang soldier's face, stomping him back into the hole alive, as if he wanted to vent all the anger he had suffered in vain these days at once, moving his movements swiftly. Hot oil came and poured it into the hole.

A torch was thrown into the cave, and the screams spread immediately, and ordered the soldiers to pour the mud into the cave to fill it up. Xie Qiongjiu turned around expressionlessly, and looked at the turtle shell holding a tortoise shell as if he was completely scared. Lu Chuanfeng, who was dumbfounded, yawned and asked, "Where is the next position?"

Lu Chuanfeng stammered: "Yes, yes, yes, in the west corner of the city!"

"Ah."

Pianpian's clothes fluttered in the wind, Xie Qiongjiu recalled the soldiers who had filled the hole, and rushed to the west corner of the city.

After running to more than ten places in a row, the Xiangyang soldiers were finally scared away. Xie Qiongjiu, who had dark circles under his eyes, clapped his hands, announcing that the crisis had been resolved.

The watchman rang the last gong, and the people in Pingzhou City were in a sound overnight.

After a few days and nights, Gongsun Ji's strategy aimed at exhausting Xie Qiongjiu still failed to be implemented. Also in the early morning, layers of dust appeared on the horizon parallel to the morning sun. The leader was holding a long gun. With the momentum of a tiger, he led the army straight to the Xiangyang army.

On this day, Xie Qiongjiu stood on the city wall after a long absence, beside General Ning who was eager to try and Cao Yuan with a paralyzed face.

Xie Qiongjiu looked at General Ning with a half-smile, "Go if you want, and fight as you like now."

General Ning: "......." Why did Junshi Xie's tone make him feel like the other side is letting a dog bite someone.

However (a certain dog) General Ning didn't have time to continue to entangle. The arrival of Qin Ce made the soldiers in Pingzhou City very excited. Everyone turned into puppies, looking at him eagerly.

General Ning snorted and held up the weapon in his hand: "Come on, let's go out and beat his mother!"

"Yes--!"

Pingzhou's 15 soldiers and horses were mobilized, and even the city gate seemed to be shaken three times. Xie Qiongjiu watched quietly, and suddenly turned his head.

"You don't want to go?" Cao Yuan asked.

Cao Yuandao: "My lord asked me to take care of your safety." After thinking about it, he added, "Mr. Chu also said so."

"Really." Xie Qiongjiu smiled, "But I'm fine now."

never mind?

Seeing how busy Xie Qiongjiu has been these days, Cao Yuan raised his head in doubt. Half of his handsome face was melted into the rosy glow of the rising sun. Laughing is not quite the same as usual, reminding Cao Yuan that the bowstring that has been tensed for a long time will finally be relaxed.

Then, it should be fine.
