The next day, early in the morning

As the first rays of sunlight are reflected through the window, Saga is woken up by a loud knock on the door.

"Who.. Come on, don't knock .."

He came to the door sleepily, opened the door, and there was a herald dressed in the king's military uniform standing outside the door, and when he opened the door, the man saluted: "Mr. Desert Fox, Qingjun has sent me to inform you to go to the conference room to participate in the battle meeting!"

"Okay, I see... I'll go over when I've cleaned up.."

Saga answered sleepily, and when the man heard this, he saluted again and left first.

Closing the door, Saga turned around and changed his clothes, washed up a little and then went out of the room, at this moment, the sky was still bright, the temperature was also very low, the cold wind of last night remained, and the fine pieces poured into it through the opening of the collar and sleeves, making people tremble and beat their teeth

Saga tightened his collar and buttoned it to keep out the cold wind, and walked helplessly in the direction of the palace.

Along the way, the scenery is still the same, looking at the front line of the battlefield in the distance, the lights are still on, and you can vaguely see the figure of the soldiers changing shifts in the camp.

Crossing the garden, stepping into the square, in front of the palace gate, he met the princess who happened to have just arrived, he had known her for so many days, and one day he saw that her appearance was not so rigorous, it seemed that she should have just been woken up from a sweet dream, and her pretty face was not good, so she hurried to change her clothes.

"Princess Jiujiu, early.."

"Early.."

He walked forward quickly, greeted him, and after the adjustment of last night, his attitude towards him for a long time was slightly improved, and he replied to him coldly.

Although it was just that, it was after all to talk to him...

Shagar suddenly felt much better, and the two of them converged and entered the temple together.

..

Pushing open the door of the conference room, the scene in front of them really shocked them, the room was full of people at the moment, almost all the figures in the royal family had arrived, and some officials in charge of the king's army were also present, everyone heard someone open the door, and they all turned their heads to look at them.

"Here we are?.. It's just waiting for you... Come over to me.."

Seeing that it was them, Zhou Yihan stood in front of the lecturing board placed in the innermost part of the table and beckoned to them.

And after hearing his words, the two of them understood that the reason why so many people present had not started the meeting yet, was actually waiting for them?

For a while, I felt that my face was really ashamed, and I almost lowered my head and walked to his side hard.

"Alright, the people are together, the combat meeting begins.."

I don't know when a baton appeared in his hand, Zhou Yihan used it to knock on the map of Shadu drawn on the pulpit, attracting everyone's attention back, refocusing, and cheering up...

"Let's look at the map... At present, the formation of Shadu can be roughly divided into three classes, our army and the enemy's main force against the palace and the civilian area, all of which are "one" against each other, in Shadu, there are three places for the palace to enter and exit the civilian area, one of which is the bridge in front of the main palace, but this bridge was blown up by them, we can not see it for the time being.."

“.. The other two, on the left and right sides of it... I went to see yesterday that there were no houses on these two places, but an open area completely empty, separated by more than a hundred meters, and if our troops were to go to the opposite side through here, on the unobstructed flat road, we would be a live target, and they would be spotted at a glance.."

“.. Moreover, there is only one gate in Shadu, which is located behind their area, and in a sense, although we won the battle, we were surrounded by them and could not move... I have just asked the king, the current reserve of rations in the palace can barely support the food of our army for a week, and this data is still fluctuating, in this case, it is impossible for us to get enough supplies to maintain the operation of the army in a week, and on this matter, the other side does not have such concerns as we do, because nearly half of the ordinary people in Shadu live on their side, as long as they set up troops to grab food, they can easily hold out beyond our time."

As he spoke, he tapped lightly on the board again, meaning to divide the key points, and said: "In the desert, the heat consumption is far greater than in other places, and if we don't eat, I'm afraid that in less than three days, our army will no longer have the power to resist, and there is a high probability that there will be a mutiny."

In the last sentence, Zhou Yihan said very vaguely, but everyone present would not not understand, Princess Jiujiu pursed her lips and said, "That is to say... In seven days, we have to start a decisive battle, or we may not have a chance."

Hearing this, Zhou Yihan turned his head, raised his finger and compared: "In fact, the deadline may be shorter.. As I just said, this period is fluctuating, it may be a little longer, or it may not last for a week at all, and this is only one of the conditions, there will be no large amount of fresh food stored in the palace, which Lu Xi'an, who was originally the prince, must also know, then he can definitely expect that we will inevitably break out in a decisive battle in the short term.."

"After yesterday's battle, the vitality of the city defense army was greatly damaged, although now the situation is barely maintained by the trick of hostage-taking, but if we break the cauldron and sink the boat, they still have a big loss, you don't look at him as if he is desperate now, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, he will never let himself die.."

"So... He will seek foreign help.."

As he spoke, the baton in Zhou Yihan's hand struck heavily on the board again, and the tip of the rod just pointed directly at the position of the Shadu City Gate..

“.. As I have just said, there is only one gate in Shadu, and we are now blocked by them in a dead spot, and we can't even get out of the city, as long as their reinforcements arrive, they can swagger in through the city gate, join the city defense army, and go straight into the palace along these two roads, while we don't even have a direction to retreat."

As he spoke, his words paused for a moment, the baton in his hand was like a beam of light, little by little withdrawn into his palm, he turned his hands behind his back, slowly paced around the long table in front of him, and continued with a vague mouth: "Even if some of us have a way to climb over the wall to the outside world to ask for reinforcements, our reinforcements will definitely be slower than theirs. Moreover, in order to enter the city, they must first make a large circle and advance through the city gates, and it is conceivable that they will inevitably be met with suicidal resistance from the city defense army. And what about us? In the course of this time, we will probably be wiped out. By then, I won't be able to save so many of you here."

"Bang!"

As soon as Zhou Yihan's words fell, a member of the royal clan immediately slapped the table! Echoed him: "Attack! Attack immediately! Brothers and elders, you should also understand what His Majesty Qingjun said just now, right? No matter what we do or not, the army under Lu Xi'an will definitely rush into the palace to counterattack us! At that time, if we are wiped out, won't the people in the entire Shadu City fall into his hands? Then it is better to take the initiative while we are still in control and take the initiative! Completely wipe them out! Maybe we still have a chance to protect the safety of most of the people in the city!, I agree with the plan of the Qing Monarch.."

Shouting out the last words, the royal member raised his hand!

Immediately afterwards, more and more members of the royal family also raised their hands one after another, echoed and agreed to Zhou Yihan's proposal, maybe it was not until this moment that they understood why even some members of the royal family who did not go out of the gate all day and did not step out of the door were called to this room today for a combat meeting...

Seeing that more and more people raised their hands, nearly half of the people in the room agreed to Zhou Yihan's proposal, and only the king, Princess Jiujiu, and several other respected elders in the royal family were left who did not raise their hands

The scene fell into an embarrassing death, and the people who had raised their hands looked at the elders who had not raised their hands in embarrassment, which invisibly also caused them a lot of pressure, and this seemed to be what Zhou Yihan wanted to see, as the initiator, he seemed to fall into silence after putting forward this decision, and went to the window without saying a word, and peeped at the movements of the enemy army in the distance through the window

Suddenly, there was a lot of commotion behind him, Zhou Yihan turned his head in the voice, and saw a certain old man sitting in front of the table with white beard and wise eyes, slowly raising his palm, the source of the commotion just now seemed to be because of him...

To tell the truth, when he saw the old man raise his hand, even the king's face was obviously shocked, and he hurriedly said: "Old Sun.. You are.."

Called "Sun Lao" by the king, his position in the royal family is obviously prominent, which can be seen from his seat, he sits in the first place under the king's left hand, and is the closest person to the king on the side of the royal family.

Hearing the king's question, Sun Lao turned his head leisurely, looked at him and said, "I am the elder of the royal family, and every move must be the first priority of the rise and fall of the royal family."

As soon as Sun Lao's words fell, the person sitting opposite him slowly raised his palm.

"I agree.."

Before the shock completely subsided, the king shook his head again and turned to the person on the first seat under his right hand, and the people sitting in this row were the leaders of the king's army with official positions, and the person in the first seat was none other than the commander of the king's army, Captain Qi.

"Old Qi, why are you.."

The king's eyelids were throbbing

Captain Qi pursed his lips tightly, his face was entangled, and he thought about it for a long time before he turned his head and replied, "I'm sorry.. Your Majesty.. Soldiers are also human beings, and we also want to rescue all the ordinary people who are trapped, and for this reason, we are willing to do it no matter how difficult it is... But isn't it impossible now... The most important thing in commanding troops is "fighters", and I can't let my soldiers die because I didn't grasp the opportunity."

Captain Qi's heartfelt words blocked the king's open mouth, because of the change in his and Sun Lao, these two people with prominent positions in Shadu, the score on the field has also changed because of this, and many people who were still watching just now also slowly raised their hands at this moment.

Seeing that more than half of the people on the field agreed, and even achieved an overwhelming two-thirds, it seems that there is no need to argue what the conclusion is.
