The Pushui boundary is mostly hilly, most of the land is flat and open, the mountains are not steep, but there is no lack of strange peaks and valleys.

In autumn, the leaves of the yellow flower decay.

Except for some evergreen plants, most of them have withered and yellowed.

The picture full of blue and yellow intertwined decorates the Pu Shui before the decisive battle.

As Xuanyuan Xing expected, and as Xuanyuan Heng expected, on the second day when Xuanyuan Heng led his troops into Quancheng, which was more than 50 miles away from Pushui, the coalition forces marched east from Pushui City one after another, and 600,000 troops surrounded Quancheng.

Today, the siege is nearly a month.

Lanling mainly guards the northeast area of Quancheng, and the Chiyan and Qi sects surround the northwest and southwest directions.

In the besieging army array, in addition to the multi-layer protective fence used to prevent the Xuanyuan army from breaking through, the most eye-catching thing is the middle of the Three Kingdoms camp, each with a high platform of more than 20 zhang.

In order to observe the dynamics of Quancheng and quickly transmit battlefield information, according to the proposal of the Lanling National Division, the countries of the alliance built a tall military command platform in the military formation, and equipped it with war drums and flags.

Jiang Li, Yang Minghao and others naturally knew that Lanling's move was mainly to hope that through the high-level order, unified dispatch and command, in order to exercise the power of Lanling Li's "alliance commander".

Not to mention that the 60-meter-high platform does have a certain military value, even if it is out of the friendship of the alliance, it is difficult for the two sides of Chiyan and Qi Sect to oppose it.

Even more intimidating than the high platform are the countless eyes in the sky.

The coalition forces dispatched numerous teams of birds all over the city, and they took turns flying, sometimes hovering at low altitudes, sometimes hovering in the air to observe, to ensure absolute monitoring of the city.

However, these fowlers did not dare to get too close to the city, and the heavy bows and crossbows that were scattered on the walls should be a great threat to them.

One side defended the city, and the three sides besieged the city, and there was not too much contact and friction.

For the past few days, they have just watched each other, and they have been peaceful.

Compared with the strong lineup of the besieging coalition army, the defenders of Quancheng of about 50,000 are slightly thin.

Moreover, the city defense of Quancheng is far inferior to Pushui City, it is of the same level as Wanqiu, and the total area is less than half of Wanqiu City.

Viewed from the air, the current Spring City is a small island, wrapped in the boundless white waves composed of hundreds of thousands of coalition troops, and is in danger of being swallowed up at any time.

There are crises outside the city, and Chu Ge is surrounded by all sides, so it stands to reason that the city should be tense and ready for battle.

However, this is not the case.

In addition to the guards at the head of the city, after completing a day's regular drills, some of them were in pairs, chatting in inconspicuous corners, or talking about the scenery of their hometown, or discussing the current battle situation;

Some of them sat cross-legged in groups of three or five, talking about which girl had the best waist and which city had the most fragrant soju.

There was no nervousness or uneasiness on the faces of the sergeants.

From time to time, I can still hear a burst of strange laughter that comes out of nowhere.

The most lively thing is the wrestling field.

Regardless of the size of the military rank, no matter how high or low the rank, the soldiers can compete with each other in the wrestling field, show their skills, compare horsemanship, archery, guns, wrestling, and wrist wrestling......

Don't win or lose, just be happy!

Of course, the competition of those soldiers in the silver armor sector is the most eye-catching.

Whenever someone shows a wonderful Yuan Li exercise, it will definitely attract applause and shouts one after another.

A hundred meters outside the wrestling field, there are several simple wooden buildings.

It was the residence of the generals of the Xuanyuan battalions, and further north was the temporary general's mansion of the commander Xuanyuan, and the noise of the wrestling field could be clearly heard in the mansion.

It's approaching evening, and the autumn sky gets darker earlier.

Xuanyuan held the candlestick in his hand and stopped in front of the parchment map hanging in the main hall.

Before leaving for Quancheng, Xuanyuan Heng left the self-made three-dimensional map to Xuanyuan Xing, and asked him to check it often, hoping that he would gain something from it, and he hand-drew the current map.

Xuanyuan Heng observed the map while listening to the reports of the generals of each battalion.

"Lord Wang, the Tiger Camp has dug more than 300 wells in the city, and the problem of water for the daily life of the soldiers has been solved!"

"Lord Wang, the heavy cavalry battalion has followed your instructions to build a diversion tank and a cistern in the city, and it has now been completed.

"Lord Wang, the 150,000 pieces of wooden shields you ordered the battalions to rush to make have been counted and are now stacked in the Wolf Warrior Battalion, and the officers and men in the battalion are stepping up their coloring, and it is expected to be completed in three days. ”

"Oh, so fast! Is there enough wood in the city?" said Xuanyuan Heng after a pause, and continued to look at the map.

"Back to the prince, after Quancheng was besieged by the coalition forces, the water was indeed a little nervous, but there was enough wood, and the wooden shield was simple and easy to learn, and the soldiers of each battalion were responsible for a few pieces, and they made a seven, seven, eight, or eight ten days ago, which is a little troublesome to color!"

The leader of the Wolf Warrior Battalion thought that his task would be completed ahead of schedule, and his words were a little arrogant.

"One by one, it's really not like it's not like it, it's been this hour, it's been noisy and shouting for days, I really can't do anything about them, Lord Wang, those rabbit cubs didn't quarrel with you?"

Between the reports of the generals of each battalion, Zhu Dan walked in from outside the tent.

He was worried that the noise in the wrestling field would affect Xuanyuan Heng's handling of affairs, so he deliberately laughed and cursed outward.

"Old general, don't worry, it's going to be a big war soon, and it's not a bad thing to let them relax and relax now. ”

Xuanyuan turned sideways and greeted him with a smile.

"Presumably, when the old general was young, he was afraid that he would be even more noisy than them!"

"That's right, that's right. Having said that, the coalition army is really patient, hundreds of thousands of troops only besiege but not attack, and after being idle for so long, the old man's hands are really a little itchy. Looking at this situation, they are going to keep consuming, waiting for us to run off water and food, and vainly want to let our 50,000 troops be trapped in Quancheng, their wishful thinking is really a bit naïve!"

The old general is right, but in Heng's opinion, there is another important reason why the coalition forces do not attack the city. ”

"Oh, tell me about it?"

"The coalition forces are afraid! There is the famous old general Zhu who shocked Jiuzhou, who is not afraid of this coalition army!"

Xuanyuan Heng also made a joke, which caused all the soldiers to laugh.

"Hahaha, when will the prince learn to say these flattering words, hahaha!"

Zhu Dan knew that what Xuanyuan Heng said was not all a joke, and Quancheng, besieged by ten times the enemy, was indeed in crisis.

If you want to deter the enemy and boost morale, in addition to Xuanyuan God of War, you also need to add him Zhu Dan.

Everyone knows how terrifying the strength of an army is if there are two generals of the Pure Gold Qi Realm.

Quancheng was trapped for a month, but Xuanyuan's soldiers were not afraid, and they were all in good spirits.

The reason for this is not only because these 50,000 elite soldiers are veterans of the battlefield with extraordinary strength, but more importantly, they have spiritual pillars such as Xuanyuan Heng and Zhu Dan in their hearts.

"Jokes are jokes, the veteran came to the prince at this time, just to talk about the military rations, the prince has been saying that he is waiting for the fighter, but the time is too long......"

Xuanyuan Heng knew Zhu Dan's intention, and motioned for the generals who had just reported to return to the camp to continue the previous topic.

What the old general is worried about is also what Jiang Li and Zikui expect. We should be able to sustain our rations until the end of next month!"

Xuanyuan Heng picked up the candlestick again and walked towards the map, Zhu Dan following closely behind.

"At the end of the month, it's definitely no problem. ”

"That's enough time, old general, there are two things that you need to arrange personally. ”

"Although the prince commands, he is idle anyway. ”

"This is the first thing, please ask the old general to arrange for 100 sergeants who cultivate the two attributes of wood and water to make a fire in the food camp, and use the exercise method to disperse the smoke rising from the stove, and cook in the camp tomorrow morning to remove ten stoves, and then increase each meal with ten stoves."

"Lord Wang, you are ...... on purpose"

After Xuanyuan Heng and Zhu Dan tacitly exchanged glances, he continued: "This second thing, as the old general said, the soldiers are idle, and they should also be allowed to move. Starting from tonight, the old general can select the sergeants of the silver armor sector in each battalion, a group of dozens of people, starting from the time of the child, send a team every other hour to raid the military camps of Lanling and Qizong, and send three or four groups every night, and there is no need to fight, it is best to break into the inner camp, if the defense is tight, it is okay to fight a little on the periphery, and try to avoid casualties. Old general, you don't think these two things are too trivial, right?"

Zhu Dan is Xuanyuan Heng's most relied on veteran, and if it is not a big matter, he will never bother him with his own hands.

Zhu Dan never sells his old age, he responds to everything he asks for, and he must obey orders.

As far as the two things just now are concerned, they are indeed ordinary and trivial, if it was in the past, Xuanyuan Heng would arrange a few more lieutenants to deal with it.

But Zhu Dan understood the intention as soon as he heard it, judging from his experience of following Xuanyuan Heng for many years, this smoke and fog and night sneak attack seemed simple and trivial, but in fact it was very important for the decisive battle in the coming day.

"Lord, where did this come from, the old man is nearly seventy years old, but his memory is not bad, all the orders of the prince have been recorded, and he will go back to prepare immediately. ”

Zhu Dan happily accepted the order, Xuanyuan Heng was relieved, and continued to observe the map with the candlestick.

The red light of the candlestick shines on the area marked "Yecheng".

Zhu Dan was about to leave and couldn't help but pace back.

"Lord Wang, I know that there are some things that should not be asked, but the old man is really uncomfortable holding back. ”

Xuanyuan looked at Zhu Dan with a puzzled face, and his eyes signaled to him, "If you have something to say, it's okay to say it."

"Recently, I see that the prince is always looking at the map, and every time I pay special attention to Yecheng. Yecheng is less than 2,000 miles away from Pushui, and it is completely too late to say that the aid is completely in time, but the coalition forces are stationed in Pushui and encircling Quancheng, and there has been no movement on the king's side, and they can only not collect the battle report we sent, so isn't the king worried about any mistakes in Pushui? The prince often pays attention to Yecheng, isn't there something wrong with Yecheng?"

"The old general is too worried. ”

Xuanyuan Heng made a relaxed expression and persuaded: "Brother Wang's 100,000 troops are stationed in Yecheng, and it is the best restraint for the coalition army to respond to all changes without change. However, the final effect of this decisive battle, Yecheng is also a key step, so I paid more attention, and the old general will naturally understand it in the future. ”

"Oh, so the veteran does think too much. ”

Zhu Dan was puzzled, and after saluting, he walked out of the hall quickly.

After a slight cough, Xuanyuan Heng focused his gaze on the "Yecheng" on the map.

He didn't have the ease he had just now, and instead frowned and pondered.
