Chapter 300: Waiting for news

Ma Yu said: "According to the latest information I received, Luo Linhai's crusade army and the Tang camp in Zhongzhou City have suffered great losses, but Luo Linhai's main loss is the newly formed White Lion Legion, and his own Yellow Dragon Legion has not suffered too much loss. ”

"Although it looks like the Tang camp will be defeated sooner or later, it is really difficult for anyone to predict how long they will be able to hold out. And there is news that Tang Jingtian has sent people to ask for help from the Lushang Puritans, hoping that Yuan Shi Tianzun can come forward to save the decline of the Tang camp. How can it be said that Tang Jingtian is a disciple of Yuan Shi Tianzun, although Yuan Shi Tianzun is transcendent, he may not be able to watch the dynasty that his disciples have just established collapse. ”

Everyone was very excited when they heard that Yuan Shi Tianzun might join the war, and everyone's thoughts were the same, hoping that Luo Linhai and Tang Jingtian's men and horses would fight as fiercely as possible, so that the Songhu Army could make a profit.

Shi Ziling shook his head and said, "I don't think that Yuan Shi Tianzun will be involved in the big war in the central region. I've met Tianzun, and he obviously has no interest in the Tang family's hegemony, all he cares about is the Nine Yuan customs clearance diagram. If the Tang family had a chance to win, Tianzun might help them so that the Three Qing Sect could be further promoted, but since the Tang camp was bound to lose, Tianzun would not be involved in it. ”

"The reason why Tang Ying released such news is probably just to scare Luo Linhai and delay time, it seems that they really can't hold on. ”

Nangong Xia asked: "Since the Tang camp is still struggling to support, can we take the opportunity to send troops to deal with Luo Linhai?" We are now in high morale, although the number of troops is not as large as Luo Linhai, but it is estimated that it is enough to fight, if we miss the opportunity, the imperial court will send a large army to deal with us again in the future, then we will be in trouble." ”

Yu Wei said with a smile: "Senior Nangong, why are you so enthusiastic about continuing to fight this time? I thought you had always been a little afraid of competing with the imperial army!"

Nangong Xia's face turned red, and he said: "What do you kid know, now we are gaining momentum, it is a good time to take advantage of the victory to pursue, Luo Linhai and Tang Jingtian's men and horses have been fighting for a long time, and it is already a huge consumption, wouldn't it be good for us to take advantage of the situation to wipe them out in one fell swoop and sweep Zhongzhou away?

In fact, what Nangong Xia is really worried about is that the strength in the east is growing day by day, and even if the imperial court wants to deal with Shi Ziling, it is likely to adopt various strategies to break through, and first deal with the relatively weak eastern ally Nangong family. If Luo Linhai's power can be eliminated first this time, then the imperial court may no longer be able to send troops to fight, and the Nangong family will naturally be able to sit back and relax. That's why he hurriedly urged Shi Ziling to strike while the iron was hot and hurry up to the central part of the country.

Shi Ziling and Ma Yu both smiled slightly, the two of them were naturally clear about Nangong Xia's thoughts, but because they had no bottom in their hearts about the battle situation in the central region, especially how much strength Luo Linhai's army still had, they didn't dare to act rashly. In addition, the special attack division is quite tired from the long expedition, so it has not yet decided whether to send troops again.

Shi Ziling pondered for a while, and said to Nangong Xia: "The advice of the predecessors is really good, and I haven't thought about taking advantage of the victory to deal with Luo Linhai, but now the situation in the central part is unclear, I don't think it's better to wait like this, how about we wait for a few days? If there is new and definite news in the next few days, we will decide how to proceed next." ”

"How many days will you wait?"

Nangong Xia was puzzled: "How many days do you have to wait? If you don't fight, I will take my 20,000 horses back to Narcissus City, after all, Narcissus City is relatively empty now, and it will be very troublesome if you encounter an enemy." ”

Shi Ziling thought for a while and said, "At least three days, at most seven days, I will definitely give a definite answer to my seniors." During this period, the 20,000 horses of the predecessors were relieved to rest in Songhu City, and all the grain, grass, and ordnance supplies were provided to us as best they could. If I decide to send troops at that time, then I would like to ask my seniors to continue to help me. ”

Nangong Xia said with a smile: "Seven days? Are you sure that you will definitely receive the exact news from the central part of the country within seven days? Songhu City is far away from Zhongzhou, no matter how powerful your spies are, they will not be able to deliver the news so quickly." ”

Shi Ziling smiled: "Actually, I'm not sure, to be honest, my original intention is to recuperate for a year and a half, and then consider attacking after the strength of our Songhu Legion is further strengthened." ”

"However, there are opportunities in the central part of the country at the moment, so I want to wait and see if there is any further accurate news from there. Don't hide it from my predecessors, I have reliable sources around Luo Linhai, and if there is indeed a drama over there, maybe there will be news soon. ”

Ma Yu, Yu Wei and the others all knew that the Dao Shiziling was referring to the great cause of Elder Dian, and if there was indeed a good opportunity in the central region, Elder Dian's would have informed Shiziling in advance.

Nangong Xia actually wanted to follow Shi Ziling to attack the central part of the country, in his opinion, Shi Ziling's Songhu Army was so strong, he should have the upper hand against Luo Linhai. If Luo Linhai's army can be defeated as soon as possible, then Narcissus City can certainly sit back and relax, and the great cause of Shiziling is also about to succeed. Anyway, it was just a matter of waiting for seven more days, and since Shi Ziling said that there might be further accurate news coming, Nangong Xia of course agreed.

After discussing the important matters, everyone dispersed, and Shi Ziling finally returned to the backyard to reunite with many beautiful wives.

Shi Ziling praised the wives of the family for being able to stand up when Songhu City was in danger, and the wives were also happy to talk about interesting things in the army, and poured out their thoughts, and the family was happy and laughing.

Yu Yulan asked: "Husband Jun won a big victory this time, I don't know if he will continue to march into Zhongzhou in the next step or if he has other plans?"

Shi Ziling told him about the discussion with Nangong Xia and the others just now, and Su Zhirou said, "So Fujun is waiting for news from Elder Dian's side?

Shi Ziling said with a smile: "If there is no new news within seven days, it means that Luo Linhai's strength is still strong, and in the short term, Dian Weiye thinks that there is not much chance that we will go." Then I will simply expand the Songhu Legion in Songhu City with peace of mind, and it will not be too late to compete with the imperial army after our strength is expanded and strengthened. ”

Bai Qingshuang said: "I hope that Elder Dian can have good news, so that we can sweep the central part in one fell swoop." ”

Yu Yulan said with a smile: "Qingshuang has made a great contribution by commanding the defenders to hold Songhu City this time, it seems that she has gained confidence, otherwise she will let her husband take you to fight in the south and north in the future." ”

Bai Qingshuang was very happy, and hurriedly said: "That's the best! I really have a lot of experience in leading the troops this time, but thanks to the help of Yulan, Zhirou and Xiaohui. Husband, you don't know what to say, they are all generals at the rank of captain now, and the soldiers in the army are obedient to them!"

Shi Ziling said with a smile: "I have heard from my father-in-law and Uncle Ma, and they all praised you for your wisdom and bravery, and you are rare generals, and asked me if I would keep your position in the army." ”

Xiao Hui hurriedly asked, "What does the husband mean?"

Shi Ziling said: "Of course I agreed. With a few of you female generals sitting in Songhu City, I will be much more relieved even if I go out to fight in the future. Since Yinghong can form the Silver Swallow Legion, I think we can also form a similar legion. ”

"Almost everyone in the Mingyue Continent is good at martial arts, and there are not a few women with outstanding martial arts strength, if you take the lead of a few female generals, it is not impossible to form a legion with female generals as the core. ”

All the wives are very excited, they don't care if they can set up a new legion, they just hope that after having a military position, they can often accompany Shiziling, so that even if they go to a distant place, they can fight side by side with their husbands.

Even Su Fengxian, who has never been enthusiastic about fighting, also shouted to join the army, this time the city defense battle, Su Fengxian and Xiaohong have not been able to join it due to insufficient martial arts strength, and they have always been unable to join the wonderful topics that everyone is talking about, and they feel quite frustrated.

Kirithara Xiang said with a smile: "The female dependents in the family of the master of the gate are all extraordinary, even if you can't set up a legion composed entirely of women, it is more than enough to set up a small women's escort group." Our disciples of the Evil Night Gate can also join them, and Xiao Xiang can also live the addiction of being a general, hehe......"

Everyone thinks that Kirithara Xiang's suggestion is good, if you want to set up a large army, it is always a little difficult to be composed entirely of women, and it is difficult to guarantee the combat power, and the real purpose of the wives is just to be by Shi Ziling's side, and they are not much interested in serving in the army for a long time.

But the establishment of a small women's escort regiment is different, such a escort regiment usually does not need to report to the regiment every day, as long as it maintains the security of the capital in a small area, but when it is really necessary, it can also quickly integrate into the Songhu Legion to participate in the offensive and defensive battles, and become a more flexible surprise soldier, which is the best of both worlds.

Shi Ziling also felt that Kirihara Xiang's proposal was good, and he said: "If you all think it's good, we can make an announcement tomorrow to recruit talents to join, such a women's army is all composed of martial arts masters, as long as they are properly trained, their combat power will not be bad." At that time, it can not only be used to protect the families in the capital, but also can be incorporated into the Songhu Legion as a surprise soldier at any time if necessary, which is indeed a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. ”
