Chapter 636: A Tense Moment
The sudden death of the general was supposed to be hidden from everyone, but the army of Xiliang Kingdom was not like this, and it was placed in front of everyone with great fanfare. âďź
In this way, if Xiao Jue doesn't know there, it really means that Zhaoyue Kingdom is too wasteful.
At that moment, a soldier immediately sent the information to Xiao Jue, and after Xiao Jue heard it, he immediately summoned all the generals, and naturally, Qiu Yeji, a fake emperor, was also present.
The emperor's personal expedition was originally to boost morale, as long as they saw Xiao Rongze's appearance, everyone would feel a lot more at ease.
Xiao Jue's eyes rose slightly, he looked at everyone, his fingers knocked on the table again and again, his thin lips closed one by one, and asked, "Regarding the sudden death of the general of Xiliang Kingdom, I don't know what everyone thinks?" â
Before everyone came here, Xiao Jue had already let people pass on the news, and now none of the people present did not know.
But in the face of Xiao Jue's question, everyone glanced at each other, but slowly lowered their heads.
At this time, Qiu Yezhen opened his mouth and said: "If our generals die, I will definitely try to hide it as much as possible to stabilize morale, but Xiliang Kingdom is like this, there may be fraud in it." â
Fighting such a thing as a war does not rely entirely on brute force in the first place, and naturally there is scheming in it.
It is not unheard of to release the news that the general has died, let the opponent's army relax, and then take this opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the opponent.
Therefore, this one thing cannot be fully believed, nor can it be disbelieved.
Autumn Leaf Trace's words went directly to Xiao Jue's heart, Xiao Jue nodded slightly, and his eyebrows were even deeper.
Xiao Rongze and Man'er are still in the Xiliang ** team, I believe they have already gotten the news, if this news is fake, Xiao Rongze will definitely release a signal to sue them.
But so far, no signal has been received.
But if it is true, there is something wrong, and no one will kill themselves in the case of the other side is about to fight.
"Unless ......" Xiao Jue frowned slightly, and said slowly: "There is another possibility, that is, the Xiliang army believes in their own strength too much, and thinks that this matter will not affect their combat effectiveness." â
Speaking of this possibility, there may also be zĂ i, after all, the army of the Western Liang Kingdom has a thousand-year-old prescription as a guarantee, and if you don't put them in your eyes, there is indeed this possibility.
"Lord Wang, we still have time anyway, it's better to wait patiently, maybe our army's spies can come forward and get the news." A young general looked at Xiao Jue and said.
Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows at the moment, looked at the young general, shook his head and said, "There are a lot of people with strong martial arts in the enemy army, I am afraid that our spies will be discovered before they reach their station." â
I believe that Xiao Rongze has already done this kind of thing, but what the result will be, it is self-evident.
For a while, everyone couldn't help sighing, what should it be, only to know whether this news is true or false?
"Whether it's true or not, we're going to face it tomorrow!" Xiao Jue's tall body stood up, looked ahead and said.
With Xiao Jue's words, everyone couldn't help but be surprised, and said, "Lord, there are still three days left before the time we agreed!" â
A hint of mockery crossed the corners of Xiao Jue's mouth, looked back at everyone, and said, "Do you think that if something like this happens, will they still abide by the agreement?" Tomorrow morning, the city will inevitably be attacked! â
With Xiao Jue's words, everyone immediately stood up in panic and said, "Lord Wang, then let's go and prepare immediately!" â
Xiao Jue nodded slightly, looking at the figures of everyone, but he was extremely irritable in his heart.
In these two short days, I don't know if Xia Hui and Xia Chu have arrived at Haitian Palace, and the medicinal materials equipped with thousand-year-old prescriptions are already on the way, it only takes one day, and you can get there by waiting for another day!
Even if you can't take all of them, you can still take some of them, at least increase some combat effectiveness, but now!
Xiao Jue took a deep breath and smashed his clenched fist directly on the table, Xiao Rongze Man'er, where are you two now? Is it safe?
Qiu Yezhen raised his head slightly, looked at Xiao Jue, couldn't help sighing, slowly turned around, and walked inside, there will definitely be a fierce battle tomorrow.
At the same time, among the enemy troops.
"Now that our leader is dead, we don't have to follow any more agreements, we should lead our troops early tomorrow morning to kill that group of wastes and occupy their city!"
A man with a full beard looked at everyone and said sinisterly.
With this man's words, everyone immediately nodded, and there were many voices that echoed: "The general shouldn't give them a chance to breathe at all, we should take them down directly in one go!" â
"I'll go with the siege tomorrow morning, and this time it will definitely not fail!"
They have come all the way, and those resisting armies are like ants in their eyes, and they are effortless, so this time, with one blow, they must take it down!
Moreover, now that the king and the emperor of the Zhaoyue Kingdom are here, as long as the two of them can be captured, the entire Zhaoyue Kingdom will collapse.
Don't say that there is a queen in the palace of Zhaoyue Kingdom, a woman, what can she do?
"Is it really appropriate for us to do this?" In the midst of everyone's joyful voices, a weak voice came out.
All of a sudden, all eyes were focused on the man, and the man's face turned red and he lowered his head.
"Since our general promised Xiao Jue and gave them some time, we might as well listen to the general, anyway, Xiao Jue can't win us there."
The bearded man stood up, walked in front of the man, patted the man on the shoulder, and said, "Boy, don't be stupid, all of us are eager to take this city immediately, why give them another chance?" â
"Besides, we're just waiting for a few days, what can we change? In the end, isn't it still killed by us? Early death and early care may be able to leave a good place for them! â
Hearing the man with cheeks say this, everyone couldn't help laughing, it's true, they don't want to stay here anymore.
"Okay, I'll go and inform the kitchen immediately, make a delicious meal for the brothers early tomorrow morning, and we'll take the city by noon tomorrow at the latest!" The cheeked man's face was ruddy, his face was excited, and in his greedy eyes, he seemed to see that the city had been breached.
Since they were going to march and fight, they naturally couldn't let the soldiers go hungry, Qiu Shuiman and Xiao Rongze had their hearts in their hearts, and they were just asleep, and they were directly woken up.
"There are not enough people in the kitchen, and it disturbs the rest of the two of them, can you help?" A cook stood in front of their tent and said guiltily as she watched the autumn water slow.
The moment he heard the cook's voice, Qiu Shuiman had already woken up, immediately got up, and quickly nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to help immediately." â
After finishing speaking, he looked back at Xiao Rongze, Xiao Rongze nodded slightly, and also walked out of the tent.
After walking to the kitchen, he found the soldiers who were on vigil waiting there, Xiao Rongze couldn't help frowning, and the cook at this time said: "Don't worry, they are standing here for safety, as long as we don't have ghosts in our hearts, it's fine." â
To put it bluntly, I am worried that someone will poison the food.
A strange smile crossed the corner of Xiao Rongze's mouth, and his eyes swept over the barrels, fortunately, he had been prepared, and he had already put the poison in it last night.
Xiao Rongze's figure had just walked by, but the soldier behind him suddenly opened his mouth and said, "This water was hit yesterday, do you want to hit some new ones?" â
The voice reached Qiu Shuiman's ears, and Qiu Shuiman's figure couldn't help but stiffen and bit his lip slightly.
All those laxatives are in the water, and if you refill the water, won't it all be in vain?
There are so many soldiers standing here, they simply don't have a chance to strike again!
All of a sudden, Qiushuiman's heart was like a mess, all of them were mixed together, and he kept praying in his heart that he wouldn't be like this.
Xiao Rongze frowned slightly, but he took a basin and walked to the side of the water, obviously to get water.
"Little brother, you better wait a minute, let's get some new water." The soldier immediately stepped forward, stopped Xiao Rongze's movements, and said.
Xiao Rongze couldn't help frowning, looked at the soldiers around him, and said: "Brothers, if you want to fetch water, we won't stop you, but it's not too early, if you delay it like this, I'm afraid that breakfast won't be made, so ...... like this."
Xiao Rongze's words were not finished, but the meaning in his heart was obvious, if things were delayed, who would be responsible for this?
The soldiers looked at each other, but their bodies shrank back at the same time, a responsibility that no one could afford.
At this time, the leader of the kitchen came over, and the leader looked at the situation in front of him, and couldn't help but step forward with a smile on his face, looked at the soldiers and asked, "Little brothers, what is going on?" â
"This water was all fetched yesterday, and we are going to draw some new water."
"Brothers, don't worry, we have brought all this water, and the people here are all our own families, and they are all sincere people of our Xiliang Kingdom, and there will be absolutely no problems." The kitchen leader glanced out the window and saw that the moon had gradually set, and it would not be long before the sun would come out.
The place where the water was fetched is not close to here, and if you want to refill the water, it will definitely be too late.
When the soldiers heard the kitchen leader say this, they nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then you should hurry up and cook, and don't waste time." â
"Okay, little buddy, don't worry, I have followed the army for so many years, and I have never had any problems, and every time the water was made last night." The kitchen leader looked at the crowd and promised with a smile.
With the guarantee of the kitchen leader, the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief at the moment and said: "Since this is the case, it is really good." â
Xiao Rongze watched these soldiers retreat, and the one hanging in his heart was completely put down.
Looking up at the kitchen leader, Xiao Rongze slowly shook the water and glanced back at Qiushui.
Qiu Shuiman nodded slightly, lowered his head again, and cut the vegetables unhurriedly.
It's not that I don't know, just now, how nervous I was in my heart, for fear that I would be discovered, but now it seems that there is finally no problem.
In this case, it is necessary to take a good look at how this battle should be fought? People who have taken a thousand years of medicine are not really so strong!
