"Small...... What the?! Xiao Jingcong opened her mouth wide, and looked at Yan Zixi with a puzzled face, Xiao Jingcong had no concept of this new term, and she didn't know what Yan Zixi was talking about.

The soldiers who were watching around also exchanged their heads and talked about it, but no one could say what Yan Zixi made and how to use it.

Xiao Jingcong saw Yan Zixi smirking there, so she hurriedly urged, "Okay, Xi'er, don't sell it, tell everyone, what are you doing?" ”

Yan Zixi narrowed her eyes, picked up a clean bowl on the ground, and then walked quickly to the side of the river, squatted down, and filled some turbid river water into the filter bamboo tube, and the other side of the bamboo tube was connected with a bowl.

Everyone rushed over to see what would happen to the river.

But after seeing that the turbid river water passed through Yan Zixi's self-made bamboo tube filter, the river water that flowed out had become clear, and there were hardly any impurities visible.

Seeing the clear water in the bowl, everyone present was amazed.

"Oh my God, how did that happen?"

"Could it be that Princess Xiao is a fairy in the sky? There must have been some kind of immortal method used, otherwise how could it be possible to make this muddy river clear? ”

"Yes, yes, it must be like this! Princess Xiao is a fairy, with Princess Xiao here, we will definitely win this battle! ”

"Long live Princess Xiao!"

"Long live Princess Xiao!"

……

After a while, those soldiers shouted Long live Princess Xiao, Yan Zixi herself didn't expect this scene to appear, hearing the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis around her, Yan Zixi felt that she had done something meaningful for the first time.

Yan Zixi turned around and snorted at Xiao Jingcong, as if she was asking Xiao Jingcong for credit.

Xiao Jingcong also grinned.

After solving the problem of water sources, Xiao Jingcong instructed the soldiers: "You all saw it just now, right? According to Princess Xiao's method, make more of this filtered bamboo tube to store clean water. ”

"Yes!"

"By the way, before everyone drinks it again, you must boil it before you can drink it!"

After hearing Yan Zixi's reminder, all the soldiers reacted, and then a young general scratched the back of his head and said with a smile: "Hey, Princess Xiao is really knowledgeable, how can she be like us." With the princess by her side as a counselor to our prince, we will definitely win! ”

When Yan Zixi heard this, she only felt that her heart was happy, but because everyone was present, she couldn't show it, so she reminded everyone again: "Okay, okay, don't lift me up." I'm not a fairy, I'm just an ordinary person. But ah, I know how to heal, and if you have any injuries or illnesses in the future, you can come to me for treatment. Yan Zixi didn't have a fight at all, and won the applause and favor of many soldiers.

Xiao Jingcong, who was not far away, saw this scene, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and showed a look of satisfaction on his handsome face. General Li Hui also dragged his body that had not yet healed and walked out, and when he saw this scene, he was also stunned.

When Xiao Jingcong saw Li Hui coming out, he walked over and asked about his injuries, "General Li, how is your body recovering?" ”

"With the concern of Lord Lao, the body of the last general has almost recovered, and he can go into battle in armor at any time!" Li Hui grinned, laughed heartily, and immediately looked at Yan Zixi who was not far away, and said with praise: "Princess Xiao is really amazing!" Not only is he proficient in the art of war, his medical skills are superb, but he also knows these strange and obscene skills, and he can even boost morale, which is really an eye-opener for the general! ”

General Li laughed, just like Xi'er herself said, she was just an ordinary woman, but she did something unusual...... If possible, I would like her to be ordinary and not get involved. Xiao Jingcong also raised his head and turned his gaze to Yan Zixi's body, Yan Zixi's smile and smile all involved Xiao Jingcong's nerves, he hoped that Yan Zixi would be ordinary and simply stay in the general's mansion in Jingcheng City, so that he would not have to follow him to the difficult conditions of the northern Xinjiang adventure.

The war has not really started yet, no one can say what the final situation will be, Xiao Jingcong will use her life to protect Yan Zixi and will never let her be hurt in any way. That's all he can do...... Odd book e-book

Yan Zixi explained a few more words to those soldiers, and after asking them to step up their patrols, she walked towards Xiao Jingcong with a brisk pace.

Seeing that General Li Hui was also here, Yan Zixi smiled slightly, and asked with concern: "General Li, are you injured?" ”

Li Hui lowered his head, didn't dare to look at her, hugged his fists and saluted: "Thanks to Princess Xiao's miraculous doctor, Li Hui can regain a life, please accept Li Hui's worship!" Saying that, Li Hui was about to kneel down and kowtow to Yan Zixi, but Yan Zixi hurriedly stopped him, and said with a nonchalant smile.

"General Li Hui, what is this doing? I am a doctor, and it is my duty to save lives and help the wounded, just as it is the duty of you soldiers to protect your family and defend the country. General Li Hui is my general of Daxiao, how can I sit idly by? Okay, General Li Hui doesn't have to be polite to me, follow Jing Cong in the future, and serve him well. ”

Hearing Yan Zixi's advice, General Li Hui burst into tears, and hugged his fists at Yan Zixi again: "The last general will definitely live up to the princess's expectations, and will definitely assist the prince to defeat the thieves and protect me!" ”

After that, General Li Hui said goodbye to Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi, saying that he wanted to go back to rebuild his muscles and bones and strive for an early recovery. Xiao Jingcong did not stop him and let Li Hui leave alone.

Yan Zixi looked at Li Hui's departing firm back, immediately hooked the corners of her mouth, squinted and said to Xiao Jingcong with a smile: "Jingcong, General Li Hui is really arrogant, with such a tiger general, our Da Xiao will definitely win the battle!" ”

"Yes! I hope so. Xiao Jingcong nodded slightly, her face still worried.

When Yan Zixi saw it, she asked strangely: "Jingcong, why are you worried?" Worried? Is Fang Cai discussing some military situation with General Li? ”

Xiao Jingcong smiled faintly, took Yan Zixi's hand and walked towards the military tent, and took out the marching map he carried with him as he walked. Xiao Jingcong opened the map in his hand, pointed to the nearby terrain and said to Yan Zixi: "Xi'er, yesterday, the coalition forces of Northern Liang and Yuanxia have figured out our reality and know that we don't have many soldiers and horses stationed here. Now that they occupy the nearby high ground, if they attack again, I am afraid that it will be difficult to stop them with our current forces......"

"If it's really as you say, then we're now a turtle in an urn?" Yan Zixi's eyebrows furrowed slightly when she heard this, and she who was still smiling just now immediately became gloomy.

Xiao Jingcong nodded, "Yes, once the other party is surrounded, we are likely to be wiped out." ”

"Jing Cong...... That...... Do you have any ideas for coping with it? Hearing this, Yan Zixi was also a little anxious, originally she thought that Xiao Jingcong and they had just won the battle, defeated the strong with the weak, and their morale was high, and it was easy to defeat the Northern Liang and Yuanxia coalition forces, but now listening to Xiao Jingcong's analysis, the situation does not seem to be so clear.

The combined strength of Northern Liang and Yuan Xia has exceeded 100,000, and Xiao Jingcong's available troops are only more than 20,000, including thousands of wounded, and it is too difficult to block the attack of these 100,000 troops.

Thinking of this, Yan Zixi remembered the army that was dispatched by Xiao Jingcong to various passes, was Xiao Jingcong too cautious? Although those soldiers did not directly obey Xiao Jingcong's orders, after all, they were all soldiers of the Great Xiao, and now that the Great Xiao frontier is in trouble, can they really sit idly by?

At this time, if you are still fighting, sooner or later Beiliang and Yuan Xia will take advantage of it.

Thinking of this, Yan Zixi bit her lower lip lightly, and finally said, "Jing Cong, are the rest of the soldiers and horses we brought really unable to go into battle?" If we gather 80,000 soldiers and horses scattered in various passes, we will have the strength to fight......

"Xi'er, my husband has already told you that the soldiers and horses of those troops have ill intentions and cannot be trusted by me. It's not yet a climate to disperse, and if we really regroup, if we turn back, then we are bound to lose! Xiao Jingcong's eyes narrowed, and her deep gaze was full of sorrow.

In fact, why didn't he think about those soldiers and horses?

But do you really dare to use it?

The second prince, Xiao Yuxian, wished that he died in the northern Xinjiang, and his soldiers and horses were already lucky not to cause chaos for him, and it was tantamount to a fool's dream to expect them to help him fight against the Northern Liang and Yuanxia coalition forces.

"Jingcong, is there really no way to do it? Maybe...... Maybe it's just that the generals of the unified army have two hearts, and we can replace the commanders of those troops, is this feasible? Those soldiers are the soldiers of Da Xiao after all, and they should serve us Da Xiao! ”

"Xi'er, you're still too naïve! It is a big taboo to change generals in battle, not to mention that it is a group of generals with high prestige in the army, even if it is me, I have to give them a little bit of thin face, do you think I replaced them, and the soldiers who have followed them for many years will be convinced? When the time comes, it will already be a blessing not to mutiny! ”

Yan Zixi didn't take this into account, after all, he didn't know all the generals who commanded the army, and now it seems that Xiao Jingcong, the peerless general of the Northern Expedition, is just a false name, and it seems that he has already been set aside. It is no longer like two years ago, when the officers and men of the three armed forces are united and invincible wherever they go.

The main reason for such two diametrically opposed situations is probably the turmoil in the palace......
