Chapter 61: Fighting
"General Ben is fine!" Dugu Yin waved his hand indifferently, "Go and prepare!" β
"Yes!" Ji Yue bowed her head and bowed, and then withdrew.
Hui Mansion, Hui Shangyi Study.
"Don't you think it's been a little weird lately?" Xie Yunxiu held the folding fan in his hand, looked at Hui Shangyi, who was not nervous, and said.
"What's wrong? Isn't that normal? Hui Shangyi put down the military book in his hand and looked at Xie Yunxiu, "Li Er and I are very good!" β
Xie Yunxiu listened to Hui Shangyi's words, and couldn't wait to beat the person in front of him to death.
"You really don't have a sense of crisis!" Xie Yunxiu looked at Hui Shangyi with a look of hatred for iron and steel, "Do you think of anything else besides the young lady?" β
"Huh? Anything else? Hui Shangyi thought about it and didn't think of anything, "Can't you not sell it here?" Hurry up! β
"How can you say that I am selling off, obviously you are too stupid!" Xie Yunxiu gritted her teeth and suppressed the urge to beat Hui Shangyi, "I mean, Zheng Guo's people have been too quiet lately!" Before, Zheng Guo's army always kept harassing at the border of Qisu, but now more than a month has passed, and Zheng Guo has not moved at all, isn't it too strange? β
"Isn't that normal?" Hui Shangyi looked at Xie Yunxiu with strange eyes, feeling that what he just said was a waste of time, "Last time I had a big fight with Dugu Yin, I seriously injured him. He definitely hasn't recovered yet, so of course he doesn't dare to make any small moves! β
"You ......" Xie Yunxiu pointed at Hui Shangyi with a folding fan, unable to speak for a long time.
"What's wrong? Isn't that what I said? Hui Shangyi spread the book on his face, revealing only a pair of eyes full of doubt, "I'll have dinner with Li Er in a while." β
After speaking, Hui Shangyi also blinked his eyes, signaling Xie Yunxiu to finish speaking early and leave early. Xie Yunxiu was almost angry with this man, and it was really a wrong decision to discuss the military with him.
"Even if Duguyin is seriously injured, it will not affect them to continue to attack." Xie Yunxiu looked at Hui Shangyi with a loveless look.
"So, they have a ruse?" Hui Shangyi finally got his IQ online, sat up straight and looked at Xie Yunxiu.
"Hmm." Xie Yunxiu nodded, his expression was very solemn, "We have only recently recruited some soldiers, and the training is too little, and we have no combat experience. Therefore, if Zheng Guo is really planning something, we must be fully prepared to deal with it. β
"You have a point." Hui Shangyi closed the military book and showed a serious expression, "Recently, Qi Su's defense has been a little stricter, and it is indeed time to start practicing well." β
"Well, I'll let the pen first arrange some soldiers around Qisu to ensure that Qisu is not breached." Xie Yunxiu nodded and pointed to the map, "Qisu is the most important military location, we must defend it!" β
"Well, I'll lead the troops tomorrow." Hui Shangyi stood up and walked to Xie Yunxiu's side, "We ......"
"Young General, the young lady called you." Snowflake ran to the door of the study and interrupted their conversation.
"Then let's do this today, and I'll come back to you tomorrow." Xie Yunxiu asked to leave very familiarly, and Hui Shangyi didn't stop him, watching Xie Yunxiu leave.
"Where's the young lady?" Hui Shangyi turned his head and put down what he was holding.
"Waiting for you in the courtyard." Snowflake said as she looked at the courtyard.
"Got it, you go down." Hui Shangyi nodded, trotted out of the study, and walked to the courtyard.
"What's wrong?" Hui Shangyi watched Xiao Li suggest the Meniscus Knife in the courtyard.
"I've done it!" Xiao Li's tone revealed excitement, "It's no problem to protect yourself with the meniscus knife now!" β
"Then you try to knock down that bird from the tree." Hui Shangyi pointed to the bird on a tree with interest and said with a smile.
Xiao Li glanced up, it was a bit difficult for her, but she wanted to test her limits. Xiao Li took a deep breath, and then concentrated on the bird. I saw Xiao Li shake her hand, and the speed was so fast that people couldn't see how she sent the knife, and then the bird screamed miserably and fell directly to the ground.
"Not bad!" Hui Shangyi looked at Xiao Li, his face full of surprise. Xiao Li actually mastered the use of the meniscus knife in more than a month.
"Not bad, indeed." Wei Yanwu also jumped down from the roof with a smile, "It's not in vain that I practice with you every day, I didn't disappoint." β
Because Wei Yanwu knew more about hidden weapons, Xiao Li asked Wei Yanwu to help her train. It can be said that without Wei Yanwu's help, Xiao Li would not have been able to progress so fast.
"Smoothie please, okay!" Xiao Li was also in a good mood, "Plum blossom, go to the ice cellar and get two pieces of ice back." β
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for your smoothie right here!" Wei Yanwu casually found a place in the pavilion and sat down.
Although Hui Shangyi has always disliked Wei Yanwu, Xiao Li regarded him as a friend, so he had to endure it, glaring at him with two eyes at most.
"It's more casual today, so you can eat it." It didn't take long for Xiao Li to come out of the kitchen, and his rolled up sleeves hadn't been put down yet.
Originally, Wei Yanwu didn't pay so much attention, but when he took the cup from Xiao Li's hand, he saw the bracelet on Xiao Li's hand, and he was stunned. However, he recovered quickly, and no one around him noticed the change in his eyes.
After eating, Wei Yanwu didn't stay long, and left the pear courtyard directly and returned to his room. Passionate about e-books
"Ah Jing." Wei Yanwu's voice was not loud or small, just like he usually spoke, but there was a little excitement in his tone.
"The subordinates are here." Ah Jing appeared in time.
"Xiao Li is a saint." Wei Yanwu's words made Ah Jing stunned, if Xiao Li was really a saint, she wouldn't be able to accept it for a while.
"Really?" Ah Jing asked back, "How can the master be so sure?" β
"I see the Green Flame." Wei Yanwu's words shocked Ah Jing, and the appearance of Green Flame represented the identity of a saint.
"However, Xiao Li doesn't seem to be from Xiliang!" Ah Jing frowned and said, "Could it be the green flame that Xiao Li happened to get?" I've heard from my predecessors that Green Flame has been missing for a long time, and now that she's reappearing, maybe it's her blind cat who has run into a dead mouse. β
"It's true, but we in Xiliang only recognize Green Flame and don't recognize people. Those who have green flames can call on the people of Xiliang. Wei Yanwu nodded, "However, if Xiao Li is a saint, I am willing to follow her." β
"Master......" Ah Jing wanted to ask what was going on, but Wei Yanwu had already walked out of the room. Ah Jing looked at Wei Yanwu's back, and the jealousy in her heart was fermenting.
Pear Courtyard.
"Hui Shangyi, have you been too laid-back lately?" Xiao Li wiped the meniscus knife in his hand, "You used to get up early and be greedy for darkness, but now you lie in the yard every day to make salted fish, aren't you afraid that Zheng Guo's army will attack Qisu?" β
"What do you mean by salted fish?" Hui Shangyi sat up and touched his head, "I've already asked Ah Xiu to deal with this, I'll be busy recently, and I'll start training soldiers tomorrow." β
"Salted fish, that is, all day long, nothing but eating." Xiao Li glanced at Hui Shangyi, "To put it bluntly, it's a pig." β
"You ......" Hui Shangyi was about to say something, but was interrupted by a subordinate.
"Major General, Master Xie asks to see you."
"I'll come back later, you ask him to wait for me in my study." After speaking, Hui Shangyi got up and walked to the study.
"Ah Xiu, did you come to me suddenly for anything urgent?" Hui Shangyi yawned and looked at Xie Yunxiu weakly.
"The pen just told me that there is movement in the Zheng Guo military camp." Xie Yunxiu's expression was very serious.
"They're going to attack Qisu?" Hui Shangyi's expression also became solemn.
"It looks like so." Xie Yunxiu nodded, "The writer said that Zheng Guo dispatched all the soldiers, and it seems that they just want to take down Qi Su." β
"We must hold on!" Although Hui Shangyi knew that this was impossible, it was his duty.
"You deploy your forces now, and I'll be right there."
After saying that, Hui Shangyi left the study and hurriedly walked into the room. Now lying on the chaise longue in the courtyard and seeing Hui Shangyi's figure, I don't know what happened.
"Hui Shangyi, what's wrong? In such a hurry? Xiao Li stopped fanning the wind in his hand and stopped Hui Shangyi.
"Zheng Guoda's troops are about to attack Qisu, and now the strength of the Hui family's army has just been replenished, and they are not ready yet. This battle is hard to fight! Hui Shangyi sighed, his brows furrowed, "You stay in the mansion first, I'm going to guard the city with my father." β
After saying that, Hui Shangyi left the pear courtyard and rushed to Hui Yuzhong's study.
"Are you ready?" Hui Yuzhong was already ready to go, "Let's go, call your second brother by the way." β
Hui Yuzhong took his sword and left Hui Shangyi with Hui Shangyi, stepped on his horse and came to the gate of Qisu City.
"Newspaperβ"
A scout hurriedly ran to a few people, gasped and said, "General Hui, Zheng Guo estimates that there are 100,000 troops this time. β
"100,000 so much?" Hui Shangxian's jaw almost didn't drop when he heard what the scout said, "We only have 80,000 people now!" β
"What's the panic?" Hui Yuzhong glanced at Hui Shangxian expressionlessly, and secretly sighed in his heart that this son was not angry, "Even if the sky falls, we must guard Qi Su!" β
"As far as I know, Zheng Guo's troops are more than these, and they are not all coming to attack." Xie Yunxiu suddenly spoke, "We resisted the first wave, and it is very likely that Zheng Guo will launch the second and third waves." It's going to be a tough battle after all! β
"No matter how hard it is, you have to hold on!" Hui Shangyi's tone was very firm.
"We can't be hard-hitting, we have to outwit." Xie Yunxiu's brows furrowed, and she fell into deep thought.
"Ah Xiu, do you have any good ideas?" Hui Shangyi looked at Xie Yunxiu, his eyes full of anticipation.
"No, I don't have any thoughts right now." Xie Yunxiu shook his head, indicating that there was nothing he could do.
