After asking someone to drag Liu Daorong outside to be punished, these generals in the hall also left with a little strange face. After seeing Lin Lie's decisive side, they became more and more aware of it, and finally their own chief soldier was more difficult to deal with than they thought, and it was better to obey orders in the future, after all, people even said that the prison soldiers sent by the palace would kill them, let alone ordinary generals such as themselves.

After seeing these subordinates withdraw, Lin Lie, who was still solemn, also showed a trace of worry, and glanced at Lu Zhen on the side, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped. Lu Zhen also immediately noticed his strange appearance, so he asked with a smile: "Are you worried that you will cause trouble after killing that Liu Daorong?" ”

"The last general himself is not worried, I am only afraid that it will cause unnecessary trouble to you." Only then did Lin Lie express the doubts in his heart: "After all, he is a person sent by the palace, and now he is killed by us, it will always cause dissatisfaction, especially the Son of Heaven......"

"Don't worry, we are on the side of righteousness in this matter, who let him collude with the Tartars?"

"But...... In fact, this crime does not stand up to scrutiny, except for the letter and Shi Qingyan's testimony, there is no way to prove his crime at all. If someone holds on to that......"

Lu Zhen waved his hand to interrupt his words: "If Liu Daorong is still alive, whether it is someone in the palace who is good friends with him, or other people who want to find us who are not, they will definitely follow this flaw to excuse him." However, now that he is dead, even Shi Qingyan, the most important witness, is dead, it is impossible for them to come to us for a dead person. Because officialdom pays attention to making a profit, if you don't benefit at all, and you are still an enemy of me, no one will do it. ”

Lin Lie replied as if he didn't understand, after all, he was just a martial artist, but he didn't have as many twists and turns as a civil official. Lu Zhen just smiled, and didn't explain more, just said: "You just have to rest assured, once someone kills, this case will not be overturned, and this can be regarded as revenge for you and those soldiers who were killed by them." If you are still worried, then think about getting a big victory in this battle as soon as possible, as long as you can win this battle, then even if there is such a fork, it will be difficult for the court to pursue it. ”

Lin Lie naturally believed Lu Jin, and as soon as he heard him say this, his face turned grim, and he arched his hand and said: "The last general understands, I will definitely guard Jizhou and not let the Tartars outside the city take advantage of it." However, it will not be easy to defeat them completely. ”

"You can rest assured, as long as I can hold Jizhou for a while, I have my own strategy to break the enemy." A hint of essence flashed in Lu Jin's eyes. He had already made arrangements when the Tartars came, but he didn't know if the enemy would wait for his men and horses to arrive here.

Although I don't know what Lu Jin's arrangements are, after seeing him say this with confidence, Lin Lie's heart is becoming more and more stable, and it seems that he can sit back and relax this time.

In the next few days, as Lin Lie said, under his orders, the defenders of Jizhou strictly guarded the four cities, and actually repelled dozens of attacks by the Mongols one after another

Nancheng, as well as the means of trying to dig tunnels, were also dissolved by the Ming army one by one, but a lot of soldiers and horses were broken as a result.

The successive setbacks slowed down the Mongols' offensive, and their morale was no longer as sufficient as before. If he hadn't known that this battle was related to his overall plan, and even more so whether he could bring Duoyan under his command, I am afraid that he would have led the army to retreat long ago.

However, it is not a matter of such exhaustion, especially for the Mongolian people, who have little logistics guarantee, and the siege of the city for more than ten days is almost eating the little food and meat they brought.

This is also the biggest shortcoming of the Mongolian people, in the past, they always found an opportunity to break through the city when they invaded the Central Plains, and then plundered everywhere, and did not formally confront the Ming army and retreated. In this way, it is natural that every battle can take advantage of the Ming army. However, a town like Jiliao Xuanda, which has enough soldiers and food and a well-defended city, is not something they can attack. In the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, in fact, the Mongolian people in the north have not really broken through these border towns.

And now, when they stormed Jizhou, they were attacking the enemy's strength with their own shortcomings, and their difficulty was naturally far higher than that of any previous battle. Even if he tried his best this time, the soldiers and horses he brought were all elites of various departments, but there was still no way to take Jizhou.

Such a delay naturally consumed the patience of the Mongolian people, and finally after a few defeats, someone couldn't help but find Yexian and proposed to withdraw from the army. And it was not one or two people who made this suggestion, but as many as seven or eight tribal leaders.

Their reason is also very real, now that spring is about to begin, it is the time when everything is recovering, and the cattle and sheep on the grassland are still waiting to graze. So instead of wasting time here, sacrificing the tribesmen but still having no way to do anything about Jizhou, it is better to stop here and go back to the grassland to live their own lives.

After listening to these people's gossip, he immediately fell into silence. After a while, he raised his head, and his gaze swept over their faces one by one: "What you are worried about is only the survival of your own tribe, have you considered the future of my entire Warat clan?" ”

"Master, what do you mean by that?" Everyone was a little confused, they were just ordinary clan leaders, how could they have such a long-term vision.

"Do you know that now the Ming Dynasty is thriving, even if there is no way to take us now, but what about thirty or fifty years from now? When they have sufficient troops and all kinds of weapons, and then wave a large army to attack the grassland, what will we rely on to protect our homeland? Is it just the cattle and sheep that you have in your mouth? ”

When these words were spoken, everyone's faces changed, and they couldn't help but think of the miserable experience of the Mongolian people mentioned by their ancestors decades ago. At that time, they were killed by the Ming Dynasty and retreated, and they almost completely escaped from the grassland where their ancestors had lived for generations. Will this happen again?

"Don't think I'm alarmist, although the Ming Kingdom has always been on the defensive, it is precisely because of this that they have great hatred for us. As soon as they have the opportunity, they will repeat what Zhu Di did to us decades ago. Moreover, their offensive will only be more fierce than it was at the beginning. ”

As he spoke, he also stood up first, walked to the tent, pointed to the airship floating in mid-air at the head of Jizhou City in the distance, and said, "Do you know how powerful that thing is?" It is because of it that our strategy of attacking the east and west several times has been completely recognized, so in the future, we will no longer have the convenience of geography on the grassland, and it will be difficult to succeed in sneak attacks. This is just the beginning, maybe Ming Guo will come up with more brand new weapons at some point.

"You say, should we take advantage of the fact that we can still take the initiative to attack now, or wait until we are passively beaten in the future? And as long as we take Jizhou this time, it will not only deter the Ming Kingdom, but also make the Duoyan Department be in awe of us, so that we can rejoin my Wara to listen to the order. Maybe even the Tatars will be sincerely subdued because of this, as long as they combine the strength of all the tribes in our steppe, they will be able to fight head-on with the current Ming Kingdom, and it will no longer be difficult to re-attack the Central Plains. Just like Genghis Khan and the Great Yuan Empire back then! ”

After saying this, it really made these patriarchs a little unsure of how to deal with it. Many people's eyes also showed yearning. Yes, since they were killed in Beijing more than ten years ago, the various tribes of the grassland have not been able to achieve any decent results, and they really hope to take down an important town like Jizhou to boost the morale of the people.

But after sighing, everyone has to face an inescapable reality - this Jizhou city is impregnable, but what method should be used to capture it? They had exhausted all available means before, but this city was still as stable as Mount Tai, and it was obviously impossible to succeed by relying on any belief alone.

In the face of this problem, even the first and the first fell into silence for a short time. At this time, he couldn't come up with effective means, and he thought that the city could be easily taken, but at this time, they lost their troops but could not break it.

In this way, the problem came back around, and everyone looked at Ye Xian again and asked him to come up with a charter. Everyone will say the truth, but we still have to solve the problem in front of us first.

Just when the tent was silent and no one could open their mouths, a Mongolian warrior suddenly appeared in front of the tent door, and he reported with a somewhat panicked expression: "Taishi, there are scouts who have come to report, and suddenly found that there is an army of tens of thousands in the east coming towards us, and I don't know their identities for a while......

"What?" After everyone present heard the news, their faces all changed in unison: "Could it be that the reinforcements of the Ming Kingdom are coming?" "Because now that the soldiers and horses they can use have been gathered here, the first reaction is naturally that the Ming army has sent troops from Liaodong and other places to rescue. This made them very nervous, the Ming army in the city alone could not cope with it, and now there was one more way to the horse, and the situation was naturally worse.

But it was also first, but it was as calm as before: "You don't have to panic, it stands to reason that it is impossible for the reinforcements of the Ming Kingdom to come from the grassland." And, if it's really their reinforcements, it's a good thing for us. Without the shelter of the city, the Ming military horses are no match for my grassland warriors now. At that time, maybe we can force the defenders of Jizhou to go out of the city to rescue and give us a chance to break the city! ”

As soon as these words were said, the spirits of the others were really lifted, and they hurriedly asked someone to find out the identity of the person who came......
