There are three newly built military camps in Dezhou City, the north of the city, the east of the city, and the south of the city, and the military camps in the east of the city include the old land of the twelve cities, covering the largest area, and they are used as the camp of the Xiao cavalry, and Wang Xiao's commander camp is also located here.

But no matter how big it is, it is not enough for cavalry drills. The city of Texas is small, and after accommodating so many people, many things are not very convenient, but they can only wait for King Wu Yan to withdraw his troops before making plans.

On this day, there was still a war on the side of Dongcheng, and Wang Xiao stood on the city tower and watched the battle on the city wall. Although he had long been accustomed to it, he still had a flash of worry in his eyes inadvertently.

said that King Wu Yan couldn't capture Texas, in fact, it meant to listen to others. Now the morale is high, and the city is full of confidence. Wang Xiao knew in his heart that there was no other way for King Wu Yan to attack the city.

No matter how much grain there is in Caocang, Texas, it can last for March and May, and there will always be a time to eat it. If King Wu Yan pulled some cannons from elsewhere to bombard the city, he would still be able to break the city sooner or later. Or if he goes south to fight Jinan and Laizhou, these cities will be broken, and the morale and morale of the people in Texas will also plummet......

At that time, even if Wang Xiao has a way to deal with it, he still has worries. He didn't want the existing forces in his hands to be damaged too much, otherwise it would not be really impossible to win if he rushed out to fight hard.

He bet that King Wu Yan no longer has much will to fight, and the Rui Dynasty is discussing rewards for meritorious deeds, and King Wu Yan is likely to be anxious to enter Beijing to divide the territory and seize the position to fight for military power.

Tang Zhongyuan had just taken the capital, and he urgently needed to digest this achievement, and the existing structure of the Rui Dynasty had great problems, and it had to be adjusted well to adapt to its current territory; After such a long crusade, the soldiers needed to rest and recuperate; Money and food were also tight, and they did not immediately go south to invade the foundation of Shandong...... In this Eastern Crusade, Tang Zhongyuan should also understand that this time is different from the past, and the future expedition can no longer be fed by war, and grain and grass must be used first before the army is moved.

In other words, as long as Dezhou City is temporarily defended, which wears down the confidence of the Rui Dynasty, and makes King Wu Yan and Tang Zhongyuan feel that it is not cost-effective to storm it, it will be fine. As long as Texas shows enough difficulty, even if the city is lost, and then there are Jinan, Kaifeng, and Laizhou, they can only give up the pursuit for the time being.

Wang Xiao is different from other generals in this point, he does not focus on the battlefield of one city and one place, but the whole situation.

Of course, this judgment is based on guesswork and analysis of the enemy, and there are occasional cases where the enemy does not play his cards according to common sense. If Tang Zhongyuan or King Wu Yan, or a general who ran out of the Swiss army, went crazy and fought hard even if he was defeated and injured, then the situation could be very bad.

Wang Xiao went to the city tower every day to stay for a while, one was to boost the morale of the army on his side, and the other was to see the appearance of the Swiss army, and then through some small details, such as whether the soldiers were grinding foreign workers and the frequency of each offensive, he tried to see the fighting spirit of King Wu Yan......

He did not go on the field in person in battle armor, but wore a python robe, and he cleaned up decently and majesticly.

Today's situation is different from when he was in Liaodong, and his more important role is to become the backbone of the soldiers. Fighting in person can give blood to the soldiers under his command in the last battle, but now that he is not on the battlefield, he can give the soldiers and people in the city full confidence.

This kind of confidence is also to be shown to King Wu Yan.

"Today's offensive is not urgent, and King Wu Yan seems to have the intention of retreating."

Song Li said slowly, whether he was convinced or not, he had to admit that Wang Xiao had turned things around after he came back. The Chu army no longer fled like a lost dog, it was possible to defend the city and the army's heart, and it was not impossible to defeat King Wu Yan.

But after he finished speaking, Wang Xiao had no expression on his face, and he didn't know whether he recognized it or not.

Wang Zhu said, "That's not right. They are not asking to retreat, but they are waiting for reinforcements. ”

He actually didn't bother to speak, but Wang Xiao didn't say anything, so he had to come out and say that he couldn't let Huaiyuan Marquis personally refute Song Li.

"And reinforcements?" Song Li's brows furrowed.

Although the situation in the city is good now, in addition to food, many supplies are about to run out, and if they are surrounded again, the rising morale of the people will begin to fall, and then it will not be able to relieve the siege in a short time.

From Song Li's point of view, the king of Qi could not really stay in this Dezhou city for three or five months when he left Beijing and went south...... In case Nanjing sends someone to pick up His Majesty, everything will be in trouble.

Therefore, he hoped that Wang Xiao could repel King Wu Yan as soon as possible, let King Qi inspire the hearts of the people in the world, and then meet His Majesty as soon as possible, and then let His Majesty pass the throne to King Qi, or let King Qi continue to visit the country, in short, it is better than empty waste in Dezhou City.

Wang Xiao wants to control casualties, while Song Li thinks that in this situation, soldiers can sacrifice for the country.

At this time, when he heard that the rebels still had reinforcements, Song Li arched his hand and said: "If that's the case, why don't you take advantage of the siege now?" ”

Although he knew that he shouldn't say it, he still said it, he had to fight for more for King Qi, which was his duty as a courtier.

Wang Zhu was a little impatient, and after waiting for a while, seeing that Wang Xiao still didn't speak, he said lightly: "After collecting intelligence, the Military Aircraft Department naturally has a conclusion, Lord Song doesn't know about military affairs, so it's better not to say more." ”

Song Li was quite speechless.

The Military Aircraft Department finally decided how to fight, and it wasn't Wang Xiao who said? He persuaded Wang Xiao with the overall situation, but he ignored himself and let the stinky face Wang Zhu come out and raise the bar, and he didn't know anything about the army, and he deceived people too much!

As if sensing Song Li's dissatisfaction, Wang Xiao finally opened his mouth.

"The anti-army should be Tang Jie's Eastern Expeditionary Army, this force is not easy to deal with."

As he spoke, his tone became more and more worried, and he said: "Tang Jie is brave and good at fighting, if we go out of the city to fight, if we are defeated, and lose the benefits of the city, I am afraid that the life of His Highness will be endangered......"

Song Li listened to such a tone, and finally it was difficult to persuade again.

Wang smiled and said: "Lord Song knows about this matter, don't spread it and mislead the army." ”

"Okay." Song Li sighed......

After getting off the city tower, Wang Xiao and Wang Zhu glanced at each other, slightly teasing.

"Why do you scare him?" Wang Zhu said lightly.

"Wherever you can scare him, that's exactly what happened." Wang smiled: "If you give them too much confidence, they start to be greedy and insufficient, if you don't beat it, you start to urge it again, there have been so many battles in the Chu Dynasty in the past, isn't this how they are pointed at like this until the final defeat...... Oh, the big picture is important......"

Wang Zhu was a little sneering, and said: "In the future, you can find a follower by yourself, and Hugh will let me come forward to argue with others for you." ”

"Ordinary people don't dare to compete with him, but the second brother has a stinky face, speaks meanly, and has a holiday with him...... Well, it can also penetrate my mind, which is the best way to do such a thing. ”

Wang Zhu frowned, turned his head and left.

These third brothers like to ridicule themselves very much now, but they are in this status, and it is not easy to teach them in public...... Too lazy to pay attention to him.

Ten days after Wang Xiao came back, Wang Zhu was indeed a little annoyed with him.

Seeing that Song Li and Wang Zhu in front of him were walking away angrily, Wang Xiao couldn't help but smile.

I still remember that when I first arrived, Song Li had designed to deal with the Wang family once, and I was very scared. Up to now, he can casually see through Song Li's mind and suppress it...... The world has changed.

He wasn't proud, but he sighed slightly.

There are still a lot of things to be busy in the future, go to the military aircraft department to discuss with Qin Shanhai, Dong Jihe, and Xia Xiangwei how to deal with the Tang Festival, see the ghost loach to understand the situation of the people in the city, and find the king of Qi to issue a few more edicts......

He stepped on his horse, and before he entered the inner city, he saw a carriage stopped at the inner city gate.

Suddenly, someone shouted loudly.

"There are assassins!"

……

The scene was not very chaotic.

The guards stood in front of Wang Xiao's horse, trying to pull his horse backwards.

Wang Xiao saw that the situation did not look like someone was trying to assassinate him, so he said, "It's okay", and asked, "Who was assassinated?" ”

The answer he received surprised him for a moment, and then he ...... a little It's ridiculous.

All in all, someone smashed Wang Zhu's head with a small pebble.

Wang Xiao wanted to see who was so bold, and when he looked over, he saw that someone in the carriage in front of him lifted the curtain and revealed half of his face, but it was Zuo Mingjing......

"Did Miss Zuo smash my second brother?"

"No...... No. Zuo Mingjing lowered his head, a little embarrassed.

At this time, the two were sitting in a teahouse in the city, because the king smiled and saw that their carriage was seized by the soldiers, and came forward to inquire about it, and relieved them of the siege. Zuo Mingjing hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I have something to say to Master Hou", so they found a place to sit down, although others were a little surprised, but they only thought that she was there to ask Zuo Jinglun's news.

In order to avoid suspicion, they sat in the lobby of the teahouse, with the doors and windows open, but the place was wide and did not have to worry about being heard.

"Hmm. It's not you, that's Miss Song? ”

Zuo Mingjing explained: "Lan'er didn't want to smash the head of the second prince, we wanted to go to the barracks to deliver clothes, but we were stopped, she was angry for a while, so she threw stones. "The idea is that the mobile phone is the fastest/l/z/w//o/m

She was telling the truth, but the reality was not.

In fact, although Song Laner didn't want to smash Wang Zhu's head, she did want to smash Wang Zhu. Because she didn't like Wang Zhu.

Originally, the two had little intersection, but from Cangzhou to the snow shelter, and in the days when the snow shelter was besieged, Wang Zhu was in charge of everyone and things, and he annoyed Song Laner several times.

For example, because of various things and Song Li's quarrels, a lot of rules were established, the salute must be thrown away, everyone is not allowed to wash their faces, and every steamed bun must be eaten...... Song Lan'er couldn't help but express a few words of dissatisfaction, so she was reprimanded by him fiercely, and sent a servant woman to stare at her, saying "Don't let that stupid girl come out and make mistakes."

Later, Song Lan'er cried, and it may not be part of the reason that she was wronged by Wang Zhu. Ideas Chinese the first issue of the network ╭ァんττρ s:// ωωω.sしzωω.cΘм んττρ s:// м.sしzωω.cΘмヤ

But thinking that Wang Zhu was more or less protective of her family, she didn't plan to retaliate too much, and smashed him to settle her grievances.

She didn't expect to hit Wang Zhu's head, and she didn't expect to be caught before she made a move, and she was arrested in front of her own father and Huaiyuanhou.

Zuo Mingjing was also taken aback here.

She really didn't expect Song Lan'er to be so arrogant now......

When Wang Xiao rode his horse over to ask, Zuo Mingjing was also really panicked, and only then did he stabilize his mind.

The next moment, Wang Xiao became serious.

He has been in the top position for a long time, and when he puts on such an expression, it makes people a little scared.

"My second brother is really angry, this matter is ......"

Zuo Mingjing stabilized his mind, and became a little worried when he heard the words.

"It's kind of interesting. My second brother, it's good to teach a little lesson. Wang Xiao suddenly smiled.

The tone is the same as when a few friends played together.

Zuo Mingjing listened to this tone, and his mind finally calmed down.

It was not just for the small matter of today, but for the long-standing uneasiness that seemed to have calmed down with this tone.

She raised her mouth and smiled, looked up at Wang Xiao, and wanted to ask about Zuo Mingde.

But for a while, she only had one sentence.

"Hou ...... Your prowess and authority are remarkable now, but the more times like this become, the more dangerous it becomes, so please be careful......"

That afternoon, Zuo Mingjing sat in the carriage on the way back, and suddenly felt a little relieved.

In the end, she still didn't ask for anything for Zuo Mingde.

But she doesn't feel sorry either, and she's no longer as lost as before.

Maybe she didn't come here for this in the first place......
