But......
Anyway, if it's not a soldier under his command, it doesn't matter if one or two freeze to death, not to mention that the other party is still the Xiliang Army with wolf ambitions.
Of course, even if Zhang Zhu thought so, he would not say so.
After all, he is the general of Mianzhu's city defense, but it seems that he is afraid of the Wei army, and his mind is a little narrow-minded.
"Go back and tell your general, hundreds of thousands of troops in the city are waiting for you, and it's best to go back as soon as possible!"
With a wave of his hand, he was not moved at all, and continued the inspection that should be checked, he didn't want the big car to make a thunderous noise as soon as it entered the city.
"If there is an army of 100,000, how can Liu Bei defend the Sword Pavilion to the death!"
"That's it! Speaking of which, the military advisor has great powers, and all Liu Bei's army has been attracted to the Sword Pavilion, and this hinterland of Chengdu is not the food of our brothers sooner or later! โ
"Be careful!"
Hearing the whispers of the Xiliang Army, Zhang Zhu's whole person was stunned, before he was only shocked that the Xiliang Army would think of crossing the Sky Ridge to come here, but now he was full of horror when he heard this.
Could it be that all this is Ning Rong's calculation!
"What are you afraid of! The strength of Shu is only a handful, and now Liu Bei is in the Sword Pavilion, Zhuge Liang is in the ditch, and Jiang Wei is in the Nanban, is there anything else in Chengdu that can stop the footsteps of our brothers? โ
The Xiliang army said nonchalantly, probably in their eyes, the attack on Chengdu is just around the corner!
Zhang Zhu listened to it but his heart was like numbness, although he wanted to deceive the other party There are still tens of thousands of elites in Chengdu, but the facts tell him that this kind of trick can't deceive the other party at all.
A Xiliang army can talk about the affairs of Shu State, but think about what kind of confidence they should have.
No way!
I must go to the court again and inform Your Majesty.
Defend Mianzhu!
Zhang clenched his fists tightly, this was their last hope for the Shu Kingdom, and he had to buy more time for Liu Bei.
"See you on the battlefield tomorrow!"
Although the Xiliang army was shivering from the cold, he still looked at the Shu army with arrogance and contempt.
Da Da ......
The crisp footsteps went farther and farther in front of the Shu army's eyes.
"Inform General Huang that you must strengthen your garrison tonight!"
Zhang only hopes that nothing will go wrong tonight.

Xiliang Army Battalion.
After Pang Tong received the news, he immediately informed Ma Chao to arrange for the soldiers to collect the bones.
"Mr. Pang, the personnel who collected the bones have been arranged, let the recruits under Ma Miao's command go!"
After waiting for a cup of tea, Ma Chao walked into Pang Tong's tent in a hurry, but saw that the tent was full of people, and everyone was in full swing.
"Uh~ it's ......"
Ma Chao looked at the Xiliang Army coming in and out suspiciously.
"Dig a tunnel!"
Pang Tongtong commanded the soldiers to reinforce the pit with wooden planks, and said to Ma Chao without looking back.
"No wonder you put these two tents close together, it turned out to be for this purpose!"
When Ma Chao saw the scene in front of him, he suddenly realized.
"That's right! If the excavated soil is poured outside, I am afraid that it will leak the secret, so the two tents will be opened! โ
Pang Tong's mind is so meticulous, since he wants to do it, he naturally won't reveal the heavenly secret, otherwise this trick will not work.
"Hey, hey! Wait for General Ben to capture Zhang that guy alive tomorrow, and see what else he has to say! Ma Chao gloated and laughed.
"Meng Qi also needs to be cautious, don't let the Shu army find out!" Pang Tong couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this.
"Hmmm! That's natural, so you let people send gold and silver to Zhang Zhu, and the soldiers gathered the bones, just to divert their attention, right? โ
Hearing Ma Chao's words, Pang Tong couldn't help but glance at the other party.
Not bad! I thought that the other party would only be able to figure it out tomorrow, but I didn't expect that this would understand my mind.
"In this case, the authentic affairs will be handled by someone, and the soldiers will leave the siege of the city tomorrow to you!"
Pang Tongyi continued to command the Xiliang Army, and said to Ma Chao.
"Good!"
Ma Chao simply agreed, turned around and went to the secret organization.

It's night. There was a strange scene on the battlefield outside the north gate of Mianzhu City, hundreds of Jiangyou soldiers wearing white felt cloth shuttled through the battlefield to find corpses, occasionally met one or two Shu soldiers, and only glanced at each other, and then continued to look for themselves separately
The bones of one side.
In the cold wind, the quiet earth was extremely quiet, and even the occasional small and fragmented sound was carried away by the wind.
The Shu army quickly retreated to the city, and in today's daytime battle, the most casualties were naturally the Jiang oil soldiers who besieged the city.
"General, the bones of the brothers have been recovered, a total of two hundred and thirty-six, and the rest are all from the Jiangyou rebels!"
The gatekeeper said with some pride, and by such a ratio, you can know how brilliant their results during the day were.
"Hmm!"
Zhang nodded silently, frowning at the heads of people going back and forth in the city, his heart was full of vigilance.
"How can Ben have a sense of foreboding in his heart?"
Zhang muttered to himself, his eyes staring at the battlefield.
"It's the middle of the night, the general should be tired!"
Huang Chong's voice came from behind him, and he came to Zhang's side by himself.
"The general goes to rest, and the end of the night will keep an eye on them!"
"Hmmm! It's just that...... Don't let them get close to the city wall, although the general doesn't know what kind of weapon the Xiliang army has in his hands, the news from Jiangyou is indeed the case! โ
Zhang Zhu was still a little uneasy, and whenever a figure walked towards the city wall, his bow and arrows were ready to fire.
"Hmm...... General, it's too dark in the middle of the night, even if the other party makes any moves, we can't see clearly, why don't you light a few torches? โ
The general guarding the gate suddenly thought of a note, as long as he lit a torch along the outside of the city wall, he could observe the enemy's situation.
"Very good! Prepare now! โ
Zhang Zhu frowned when he heard this, why didn't he think of it.
"Whoa!"
The general guarding the door also ran to prepare with a happy face.
When more than ten fires burned five or six meters outside the city wall, reflecting the entire city wall, Zhang returned to his house to rest satisfied.
"Tell me to go down, and order the soldiers defending the city to rest in shifts, and there will be a tough battle to fight tomorrow!"
Huang Chong commanded his lieutenant general and quietly watched the night.
Time passed little by little, the Jiangyou soldiers outside the city were almost cleaned up, they were already tired enough after a busy night, and at this moment, when Ma Miao came with the order to return to the camp, they immediately rushed into the camp tent and fell asleep.
And the Shu army at the head of the city saw that the enemy army was gone, and once the tense spirit relaxed, sleepiness immediately surged into his eyes.
Whew~ Soon, the sound of snoring resounded above the city.
