"My lord, I'm ashamed!"

Fifty miles east of Xigaima City, Gongsun Du Daying, Hu Yan said very decadently: "The old man is incompetent, and he failed to persuade Hu Zi's bastard to surrender, and he exposed his ......."

"No!" Gongsun Duhun waved his hand absently, interrupted him, and said, "Brother Hu's words are wrong! ”

In fact, Hu Zi had known about Gao Xian's situation for a long time, but because of some people, he didn't take any other actions. Perhaps, the actions of some people moved him too much! ”

Hu Yan is not stupid, but his brain is very useful, and he immediately understood the meaning of the words, but he still couldn't say confidently: "My lord, this ......"

"Don't believe me?" Gongsun Du looked at Hu Yan playfully.

Hu Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not that I don't believe it, but I feel unbelievable." ”

Gongsun Du shook his head again and said, "Unbelievable? Hehe, after all, blood is thicker than water! ”

Hu Yanyan's face was cloudy and uncertain, and his cloudy eyes were full

This made Gongsun Du, who had been watching him, shake his head again in his heart, and said secretly: Is this a matter of concern?

Suddenly, Gongsun Du thought of that father who was related by blood, and sighed again in his heart: I don't know if you are doing well now, can those royal people be difficult for you?

Gongsun Du didn't believe that Liu Hong just did the insurance of marrying the princess to him, there must be others, as for why he didn't know, it must be on Gongsun Yan's side, and this old guy refused to tell him, and I don't know if he saw his ambition, or didn't want to upset him?

"That's it!" After Gongsun Du came back to his senses, he patted Hu Yan's shoulder, pulled him back to his senses, and said, "Whether you don't believe it or believe it, you'll see you tomorrow." ”

Hu Yan was silent for a while, and could only nod his head, what else could he say.

Gongsun Du turned his mind again and said, "However, Brother Hu, after this time, I would like to ask Brother Hu to do a small favor!" ”

"Well, no problem!" Hu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then agreed.

Gongsun Du didn't expect Hu Yan to agree so simply, and he couldn't help but be stunned. When he came back to his senses, he happened to see the back of Hu Yan leaving. It's just that no matter how you look at it, you have a feeling of rickets.

"Am I going too far?" Gongsun Du muttered in a low voice, "How can you feel like you are taking advantage of the opportunity to threaten?" ”

"Threats? Threaten whom? Is there someone threatening the adults? ”

Suddenly, a puzzled voice came, interrupting Gongsun Du's distraction.

"Oh, it's Tingfang?"

Gongsun Du didn't see it clearly for a while, and when he saw that there were other people coming, he hurriedly said, "Xu Duwei is here!" ”

Then he said, "Is this something going on?" ”

In the past, even if there was something, Xu Rong came alone, so he would directly call him "Tingfang", not the position, this time there were actually some other Qu Commanders in the army, I think there should be something important. In fact, it is said to be Qu Chang, but there is not much difference from Du Wei, whether it is the person in charge or Yu Lu, but now Gongsun Du's official position is not high, and he can only give the position of this "Qu Chang".

Xu Rong didn't dwell on the previous matter, and said with a serious expression: "Lord Qiqi, the scout who went to explore Xigaima has returned. ”

"Tell me." Gongsun Du had long known that something would happen to Sigaima, so he was not surprised.

Xu Rong remembered Hu Yan, he had heard Tan Qi say that Hu Yan came from Xigaima, and he thought that he had told Gongsun Du, and his heart couldn't help but relax. Didn't you see Gongsun Du knowing, and there was no worry on his face? Clearly, there is a solution.

However, Xu Rong still talked about the news found by the Tanqi:

"Sigaima is different from Gaoxian, although there are only three gates, but there are urn cities built outside each gate. Moreover, the height of the city wall should exceed three zhang, and if it is attacked, it will inevitably lose a lot. ”

Urn City? The city wall is more than three zhang?

Don't talk about the urn city, just say the height of the city wall, which is regulated, that is, the ancestral system. The capital, the city is nine zhang high, the most in the world, the rest of the states and states, are not more than eight zhang, the counties and counties (including the feudal national capital) are six zhang, the height of each county is different, but the highest is not more than five zhang, according to the number of people in the city are different.

However, there are only a few large counties with a five-zhang high city wall, and the rest are mostly four-zhang or three-zhang, and even some city walls with only two or three thousand households are only two zhang high (4.46m).

If it is exceeded, it is overstepping, and it is trying to rebel.

Let's say that the Liao team started by Gongsun Du, the Liao team is a small county, and the city height is only two zhang and eight feet, less than three zhang.

Although Gao Xian and Xigaima are new cities, they are inhabited by different races, and it is impossible to get how high they are, and they can have two feet and eight feet, like the Liao team, which is definitely the craftsman who built the city. It's like Gao Xian, which is only two feet high.

Now Xu Rong actually told him that Xigaima was at least three zhang tall, and Gongsun Du was stunned. But when he looked at Xu Rong and saw that his face was full of seriousness, it was obviously not nonsense. Gongsun Du also knew that he couldn't fake it, but he still felt a little incredible.

After thinking about it, it may be that Hu Zi got some words of nonsense, and the urn city is estimated to be about the same, the only thing to consider is that where did Hu Zi find the craftsmen who can build the urn city, even Gongsun Du wanted to find one before, but he hasn't found it yet.

Don't look at just building an urn city, such a simple job, but it just looks simple, in fact, it is not simple at all, otherwise why fight together, not every city has an urn city, not to mention anything else, with an urn city, the defense power has increased greatly!

But why are only a few cities built?

It's not because no one will. If it will, the castle in front of it will be too late to fight because of the sudden battle, and the city behind it should also be built, right?

Gongsun Du suspected that just like building a city, only a few craftsmen controlled by the imperial court had this technology, although the urn city was simpler, there were definitely not many people who could do it.

Right now......

Gongsun Du smiled and said, "It seems that we are going to have a big harvest again!" ”

Xu Rong and the others didn't understand, but Gongsun Du didn't give them a chance to speak, and then said: "Don't worry, there are other arrangements for this battle, maybe there is no need to attack the city." ”

Xu Rong, as well as the two Qu Chang who came with him, were all stunned: No need to attack the city?

These preparations of the enemy are used to scare people?

Okay, I want to crook these people.

Gongsun Du didn't care about this, waved his hand, and said: "That's it, the weather is so hot, forget it today, rest for one night, and talk about it early tomorrow morning." ”

Again?

Xu Rong and the others were stunned again, can this be said again? However, he still responded: "Yes, my lord." ”

The next day, before dawn, the Gongsun Du camp was lit up with fire, and the voices of the people were boiling.

After a short pause, the fire dragons began to move in the direction of Xigaima again, and when they arrived at the place, the sky was just dawning.

Looking at the heads of the city, Gongsun Du knew that the other party was ready, so he didn't say much, and said to Yang Yi: "Go, let them open the city and surrender immediately!" ”

"Yes, my lord."

Yang Yi stepped forward and shouted: "My lord has taken over Xuansu by the order of His Majesty, who dares to resist the power of heaven, and if you don't quickly open the city and kneel to surrender!" ”

The head of the city was suddenly panicked, some were scared, and some were clamoring to give Yang Yi and the others a little color, but no matter how they looked at it, they looked like they were very angry.

Hu Zi ignored the people under him, and also replied loudly: "It's not impossible to want me to open the city and surrender, but there are a few requests that I hope you can agree." Otherwise, even if it is death, so-and-so will not agree. ”

"It's kind of interesting!" Although Gongsun Du had expected it, he couldn't help but laugh when he heard Hu Zi's words. However, his smile startled Hu Yan, who was worried about Hu Zi and followed him, and thought he was angry.

There was no way, it was far away, and I couldn't see it really, but I saw that Gongsun Du's face had changed.

Yang Yi had already received Gongsun Du's orders, and replied: "Let's listen to it!" But don't think that the lion will open his mouth, otherwise, even if my lord agrees, His Majesty will not agree, and maybe he will be furious and send more troops to come. ”

The faces of the other people around Hu Zi changed, mainly because they felt that it was difficult to resist these people brought by Gongsun Du, if they still had to send a large army, wouldn't it be the end!

Although these people under Gongsun Du are not elite, their training methods are very different, so that they have strict discipline, and naturally there is an invisible momentum, which makes people feel depressed.

What does it look like?

It can't be said that after the battle of the Liao team, they are also soldiers who have seen blood, they are not new recruits, and their strength is also good. At least it's much better than those in the current court.

Hu Zi didn't care about these at all, and shouted: "I only have three requests. ”

"First, people are not sages, who can do nothing, I hope that adults can open up and give everyone a chance to mend their ways."

"Second, I hope the adults don't force us to do anything."

"Third, that is to beat me, if even I can't win, it's better to leave as soon as possible!"
