The reunion after a long absence, more words seem to be at a loss of where to start. Ji Kang said a few words, Ji Ling'er just kept listening, occasionally when Ji Kang stopped to look at the past, the woman looked at a place in a trance, until she realized that the surroundings were quiet, and asked with a smile, "What happened later?" ”

Ji Kang sighed in his heart, thinking that it might be that Ji Ling'er had had too many bad experiences outside over the years, so he also picked out some good things to say as much as possible.

“…… Seventh grandfather, are you going to Xiliang? Ji Ling'er asked, if she were another woman, she would probably ask this sentence with a surprised look, after all, Xiliang is not a good place no matter how you look at it.

Ji Kang heard the meaning of Ji Ling'er's words, so he was a little surprised, and said along the way: "I always have to go there, and I can only do this now."

Ji Ling'er said: "Ling'er, it seems that Seventh Grandpa, you still don't want to go."

Ji Kanghu wondered: "Why?"

"I just got back from there." Ji Ling'er opened her mouth calmly, and ignored Ji Kang's surprise: "I'm afraid that the current capital of Xiliang Kingdom will be in a mess, and Seventh Grandpa will definitely be involved if he goes."

"Huh?" Ji Kang's jaw dropped in shock, first Ji Ling'er said that he had just come back from Xiliang, and he hadn't digested this information yet, so he followed Ji Ling'er and said the rest of the words.

"It should be a few days, and you should be able to get the news." Ji Ling'er muttered to herself, and then looked at Ji Kang, looking like you have to believe me.

Ji Kang reacted for a while, and finally decided that even if the matter was not true, he would not refuse first, so as not to make the little girl sad.

Nodding, he explained, "You go to the house first, I'll go out to do something."

After saying that, she turned around and left, but Ji Ling'er didn't seem to hear Ji Kang's words, and not long after Ji Kang left, she also went out of the house.

Ji Kang hurriedly came out, and soon arrived at the camp tent, Yang Wenhuan and Zhao Jue saw him get up and put away the anxious appearance just now, and greeted him.

"You haven't rested yet, have you?" Yang Wenhuan asked.

Ji Kang nodded and said kindly: "There are some things I want to discuss with the two generals."

Seeing that Ji Kang's face was very solemn, the two of them also raised their spirits, and the three of them sat down separately, Ji Kang said what he had just said, and the expressions on the faces of the two became solemn.

“…… I don't want to be a relative of an adult. Yang Wenhuan said.

Zhao Jue said: "In other words, something may have happened in Xiliang that we don't know?"

Yang Wenhuan nodded, although he still felt strange that a weak woman could come back from Xiliang, he wanted to ask a few more words about the identity of the woman, but after seeing Ji Kang's face, he decisively closed his mouth.

"General Zhao, can you please send a scout to investigate, according to the time, if something really happens, there should be news in the past few days."

Yang Wenhuan looked at Zhao Jue and asked.

Zhao Jue thought about it and responded: "The last general will arrange it."

When he got up, he heard Ji Kang ask again: "General Zhao, are there any scouts who haven't come back recently?"

Zhao Jue was reminded by Ji Kang like this, his eyes were incomprehensibly picky, and he stepped out at the moment and called the deputy general in charge of the scout to come in.

After asking Fang Cai Ji Kang's words again, the deputy general also gave an affirmative answer, and then the faces of the three of them were completely ugly.

After the lieutenant general retreated, Zhao Jue opened his mouth first, "In other words, our scouts may be intercepted and killed by the other party?" ”

Yang Wenhuan nodded and said, "Very likely." In this way, Li Gou'er's army may also be pushing forward to block me as a scout. ”

The two looked at each other, and then looked at Ji Kang together. Ji Kang stood up, "If that's the case, we can't be too reckless." I think so, Cangsong City sent scouts at night to contact the front post to make sure that the news was credible, and on the other hand, he sent someone to Liangzhou Mansion to tell the news to the prefect Wang Shao, and Liangwang Mansion also went to spread the word. ”

"Okay."

This was decided in advance, Ji Kang went to see Zhou Chen again, said a few words, and when he returned to the residence, Ji Ling'er was gone, and asked some people again, but there was no trace. After returning to the house, I finally saw the letter left by Ji Linger.

Ji Kang chuckled: "This family is ......" and then stopped caring about this matter.

Putting things down like this, Ji Kang didn't leave Cangsong City the next day as he had planned before.

Early the next morning, Ji Kang stood on the pine city wall, looking at the desolation in the distance, and felt a little emotional.

As far as he is concerned, it is not unheard of such a scene, and it can even be said that in the past three years or so, he has faced such a scene every day, occasionally facing the attacks of the Rong people, and he has also done a few things to defend the city, but he also has some experience. Therefore, standing at the head of the city at this time, he still instinctively thinks about what he will do if he comes to defend this fortress, how many troops he will invest, and how many troops will the other party invest...... Ideas like this have been done several times.

But it was still not clear in my mind.

Zhao Jue came to him shortly after.

Ji Kang didn't look back and said, "General Zhao thinks that Li Gou'er's army is coming, how long can we hold out?"

Zhao Jue heard the meaning of his words, Ji Kang was talking about how long it could last, not whether we could hold it, which meant that he obviously understood that it was impossible for them to hold it.

Although the location of Cangsong City is dangerous, and a lot of financial resources were invested in the construction of this city, if it really wants to fight, it is very possible for the other party to fight it regardless of the cost. And as long as a team of more than 10,000 people is sent back to the rear, it is impossible for them to hold out for long.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this time was very terrifying.

"If it's just Li Gou'er, I will have the confidence to hold on for a month."

Ji Kang bowed his head, and then asked: "The general must understand that if the imperial court can't draw troops to support, it means that we are fighting alone, even if there is this city."

Of course, Zhao Jue understood, "How likely do adults think the other party is calling?" ”

Ji Kang smiled: "At least seventy percent."

"This?"

Ji Kang explained: "If something really happens to Xiliang, they obviously don't want to have friction with our DPRK, but they are also afraid that our DPRK will take this opportunity to send troops, so the premise of negotiations between the two countries is strength."

Ji Kang sighed: "Compared to Beirong, Xiliang is much weaker after all, and our dynasty urgently needs a victory, and they are also worried that we will successfully negotiate with the Rong people......"

Zhao Jue listened to Ji Kang for a while, and he didn't mean to answer, until Ji Kang changed the topic himself, he took the conversation.

"I just got a tip, and all the people at my forward post have been killed."

Damn, it's not fun to have a cold at all.
