The queen is a bit cowardly

Shangjing Shengqiu Mountain

Huo Xian gave the hill with a commanding height an elegant name, Shengqiu Mountain.It sounds like this mountain is higher than the hills, but adding a word of victory makes people feel that victory is expected.

On the top of Shengqiu, Huo Xian and his staff are looking at the sand table. This is a very realistic sand table, even the rest and pits on the ground are included, which is not disappointing to the scouts who have been observing in the mountains all day.

Huo Xian was very satisfied with the sand table. He stroked his beard and swept across the battlefield, thinking about how to march.

"Da Sima, I thought we could use poison." The person who spoke was the commander in chief of Shangjing, named Bai Chou, a relative of the Bai family, a close minister of the son, and a veteran general, but it could not be said that he belonged to this world. Famous generals.

"Poisoned?" Qiu Cheng looked at the colleague.

"Isn't his stone city impenetrable, easy to defend and difficult to attack?" Bai Chou said, "They don't want to come out, and we can't get in either."

"Yes." The general who went to Beijing responded.

"Then let's throw some infected corpses into them with a catapult at night. Anyway, the underground plain is good for driving." Bai Chou was drawing on the sand table while talking, seemingly confident, but he still didn't dare to look directly Huo Shi's eyes.

"General Bai, you..."

Before Huo Xian could speak, Qiu Chengcheng interjected, "You drive at night? How can our soldiers push it away?"

Bai Chou was stunned, since the location on the plain is good for driving, but if you light the lamp at night, wouldn't it be for someone else to kill you?But Bai Chou is not stupid. After thinking for a moment, he said: "There is also a way to deal with it. There are seven or eight people with excellent night vision in the [-] army. Let them each lead a car, and the cars are connected, which is like With the power of an earth dragon, you won’t be afraid of driving at night.”

In fact, Qiu Cheng didn't quite approve of Bai Chou's approach, Huo Xian was a famous general in the world, if such tactics were used under his banner, it might ruin Huo Xian's reputation.

"What does Doctor Huo think?" Bai Chou tried to ask Huo Xian.

"It's feasible." Huo Xian said, but looked up at Bai Chou: "But it's too vicious, it can only be a bad idea."

Huo Xian still saved enough face for this colleague in Beijing, if this person is a general of Fu Kingdom, he must have been furious!

Bai Chou was not convinced, saying that his best plan was feasible, but also called his worst plan, and he was still not allowed to make such an arrangement after all.

"Dare to ask Da Sima, is there a better strategy at this time?"

Huo Xian knew that the other party intended to be provocative, but he didn't take it seriously: "There is a good strategy, but the time has not come."

Huo Xian was too lazy to explain, and then said: "The other party has retreated into the city for more than half a month, has not seen any movement, and has not sent scouts out, and now also knows that we are guarding this Shengqiu mountain and dare not act rashly."

"I feel that both the enemy and us are too conservative." Chang Bai, who was quiet on the side, finally spoke. Since he was dismissed from the post of warlord for his insults to Jiang Qingluan that night, he has become more peaceful.

"There is an unconservative one, but why didn't you come today?" Bai Chou hinted that Jiang Qingluan didn't show up.

"His Royal Highness Fu went to the western front." Huo Xian said lukewarmly: "We just do our own thing well."

Bai Chou was still dissatisfied, not only Bai Chou, but most of the generals in Shangjing did not accept Huo Xian. After all, he was the chief minister of the state of Xin, but he dispatched the troops in Shangjing.

"Then Da Sima, can't you keep wasting like this?" Bai Chou said: "It is rumored that Jiang Qingluan is the god of war in the west, so it is better to transfer back the king of Fu, and the king of Fu has only been here for ten days before we go to the front line of Beijing, so we are in a hurry Changing the place, as a general in Shangjing, I also want to pay a visit.”

Chang Bai knew that the other party wanted to provoke troubles. In fact, Shangjing and Xin Guo have been friends for a hundred years, and Shangjing has always been attached to his father's country, but the coalition forces are not like diplomatic relations between the two countries. They are fighting for their lives on the battlefield. However, if the benefits do not go to one place, they are enemies. Now that they have encountered difficulties in attacking the city, Da Xin, who made them look forward to it, has been standing still. Anyone will be paranoid.

"King Fu has his own arrangements." Huo Xian said again, as if he wanted to suppress the matter.

"It is said that Fu Guo brought five thousand elite soldiers. This is a sharp weapon for attacking ambitions. Why did Da Sima let them go to the western front?" A lieutenant behind Bai Chou asked. He, an unknown man, represented some soldiers in Shangjing Huo Xian's passivity made everyone feel aggrieved.

"Presumptuous!" Qiu Cheng pointed at the lieutenant general, "What are you talking to Da Sima like that?"

"The young general is also the one who shed his blood for Shangjing. The young general's elder brother died under the stone city a month ago. Even if the chief Sima blames the young general, he must ask the whole story."

Huo Xian could see that he was going to hold on to this matter, and he wanted to dispatch Jiang Qingluan's five thousand elite soldiers, but Chang Bai and Jiang Qingluan couldn't see what happened.

"Bai Chou, is this how Bai Shi led the troops when you went to Beijing?" Qiu Cheng patted the table directly, shaking the fake trees on the sand table.

"Stop arguing!" Chang Bai got up and shouted, glanced at the person in front of him, and said fiercely: "I left because of my anger, I will naturally invite you back."

The fact that Chang Bai molested Jiang Qingluan was known inside and outside the barracks, even in the capital.But Chang Bai is the second prince of the empire after all, he got up so suddenly, the rest of the people instinctively startled for a moment, when everyone reacted, the young general stepped forward and knelt down, and said: "Your Highness, thank you for your troubles for the people of Shangjing."

Since he was riding a tiger, Huo Xian couldn't say anything, Chang Bai no longer had the position of military governor, so it was he who had the final say at this time.

"If your Highness wants to go, go by yourself."

Chang Bai got up, saluted all the generals present, and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Stone Town

Late autumn is also the harvest season. The soldiers and civilians in Stone City did not feel nervous because of the confrontation by the coalition forces in Shangjing. The truckloads of grain brought into the city made everyone extremely happy. They sang and danced, and they knew that this was a city that couldn't be taken down, and those who lived in the city could enjoy enough peace by closing the door.

"I almost starved to death last year, but I didn't expect it to be a bumper harvest this year." Old man Zhang hugged the piglet in his arms and sat on the cart delivering grain.

"No," said Li Erlang, who was driving the car, "these grains are enough for us to eat until next year."

"Li Erlang, stop chatting, hurry up and pull the cart into the city." The city guard guarding the gate already knew the man driving the cart, and he urged with a smile: "We can only fight when we are full."

"Okay, I'll deliver something to Jun Ye." Li Erlang was also happy, waving his whip to urge the animals pulling the cart.

With Li Erlang's entry into the city, the picture of Stone City gradually opened up. There are sparse hawkers on the left and right sides. They sell some useful tools while the harvest is good. Maybe go back to how it was before.Soldiers are still patrolling the streets with guns, carefully managing the order of the city.

And the highest defender of order, standing on the city gate and scanning all this, he knows that behind him is the safety of Xiajing, and Stone City can only be defended, as long as the reinforcements come, then this will change the world of Xiajing .

"General Luo, the spies are here to report."

The scout appeared in front of the guard holding the secret letter.

The guard Luo Zifeng opened the secret letter, and couldn't help but put on a sarcasm smile on his face, he only laughed at the second prince for being too foolish to moleste Jiang Qingluan when the war was approaching, now that Jiang Qingluan has left with someone, his enemy is weaker again.

"It's a good thing." Luo Zifeng sighed. There is nothing more joyful than meeting the enemy's internal strife during this bumper harvest. Everyone is more pleasing to the eye: "Go and get twenty catties of grain and go."

It was a happy event, and the scout hurriedly kowtowed to thank him.

"Commander, I heard that Jiang Qingluan went west alone?" Luo Zifeng's lieutenant general asked, as if hinting.

"The farther you go, the better." Luo Zifeng said.

"Doesn't the commander think there is a problem?" The deputy general said: "To tell the truth from the commander, I have made a special trip to understand Jiang Qingluan's art of war. It's all deceitful. I think it will be difficult for her to leave."

Luo Zifeng waved his hand: "As long as we don't leave this city, we don't care where she goes, what schemes she uses, unless she has the ability to tear down my city."

The deputy general hurriedly nodded and said yes, but he refused to give up, and continued: "In short, we still have to be careful. If we go west, we will be far away from us, but the west line is the direction from which the reinforcements will come. I don't know if there will be trouble."

"The terrain on the western front is rough. It's easy to go from west to east, but it's even more difficult to go from east to west." After the deputy general mentioned this, Luo Zifeng also became aware, but then he thought: "It's okay, we just remember one thing. Matter, defend the city."

Fu Jun

Jiang Qingluan held the horse's belly, and stuck a sorghum core into its head. Fu Xi didn't have this thing, and he couldn't grow such sorghum, but Jiang Qingluan knew that sorghum wine was no worse than Fu Guo's milk wine, and it was also a strong guy. I liked it the first time I saw it, so I took one and stuck it behind my ear.

Bale was more straightforward, he never left the wine, and drank it on his own. Shangjing in late autumn was much warmer than Fu Guo, but he still had to drink the wine to warm up.

"Your Highness, how far do we have to go?" The horse with the rabbit followed behind Jiang Qingluan. They had been going straight west for two days. Jiang Qingluan deliberately slowed down. The look of the water.

"Let's go slowly." Jiang Qingluan yawned: "Anyway, I can't go back now. This is the first time for Gu to go to Shangjing to see a different scenery."

"Oh." Youtu kept looking back: "Is it really okay to just do it so hastily?"

Baller slapped the rabbit on the head with his backhand: "You know a hammer."

A rabbit rubbed his head, but felt aggrieved. He said that he had gone to the western front for no reason. He fell asleep in the morning, feeling that he was still drunk, and he looked groggy. But he was kicked awake by Ba Le. I just got on the horse and walked slowly for two days.

"It's the master." Youtu murmured to Ba Le in a low voice: "If the Second Highness speaks rudely, we should go back. What are you hanging around in Shangjing here, and there is not enough food for soldiers."

"Then you go and tell your majesty." Balak looked at the rabbit and kept winking, urging him to go.

You Tu looked at Jiang Qingluan's unrestrained appearance, and shook his head: "Don't dare."

"It's right if you don't dare. Follow your majesty wherever you are, resist when you are in trouble, and stop talking nonsense if your majesty wants to sway." Ba Le drank his wine again: "Understood?"

"clear."

After Baler taught Youtu, he couldn't help but look in the direction he was coming and going. There was not even a shadow on the open plain, and he shook his head helplessly, hoping to go home early.
