Thinking of this, Wei Bingyue smiled at Wei Yangyang: "In the future, you must be gentle with others, otherwise, who dares to ask you, don't get married, our mother-in-law will send a large basket of embroidered buns, and my mother-in-law will laugh to death." ”

There is a custom of Haixi people that on the day of the girl's marriage, the mother's family should steam a few flowering buns according to the age of the bride, and dot the petals with red dots, which means that the flowers are rich and rich, which is called embroidered buns. Because the bride's age is not good to announce in person, the embroidered buns are brought to the mother-in-law's house, and the relatives of the mother-in-law know how old the bride is when they see how many buns there are in the basket.

Wei Bingyue said "a big basket of beautiful buns", of course, it was a sarcasm that Wei Yangyang wanted to become an old girl before it was possible to get married.

Wei Yang said: "Hmph, a big basket is a big basket, if you can't get married, I will always stay in the Wei family and eat you poor!" ”

Wei Bingyue smiled again and said, "Okay, you will remember in a while, if I am defeated, the enemy will break the city", the slender index finger of his right hand pointed behind him, and said: "You will ride to Shengping Gate and set the firewood on fire." Seeing that Wei Yang was silent, he said again: "When the water demon attacks in, he will naturally burn and loot. When the whole city burns down, I want those who dare to offend my Haixi, and I want them to come and go. ”

Wei Yangyang was about to agree, but Mrs. Wei walked up the steps of the city tower and said, "Leave the matter of lighting the Shengping Gate to me." Let the little pomegranate stay here, and you can kill a few more people. The brother and sister turned around and shouted, "Auntie? ”

Mrs. Wei looked at a pair of children with a smile: "Why, look down on me, a woman?" Wei Bingyue hurriedly said: "A-Niang, you are not wearing armor, it is too dangerous, you should go home quickly." Mrs. Wei said, "If you are defeated in the front, isn't it more dangerous for the old and weak women and children who stay in our house?" Don't worry, although I don't know kung fu, I will always order firewood. ”

Wei Bingyue looked at his mother-in-law and didn't know how to refuse her. Mrs. Wei has been married to Wei Shuping for many years, and she takes good care of the elders in the family and their brothers. There is a joke among the Haixi people: Haixi is under the control of the general guard, and the general guard is under the control of Mrs. Wei. No matter how majestic his father was in front of outsiders, he didn't even say anything serious to his mother when he returned home. He still remembers that when he was a child, his parents had a quarrel, and his father angrily lifted a table of food, smashed all the plates and bowls on the wall, and splashed vegetable juice all over the wall, and he was reluctant to do anything to his mother. Even her father didn't dare to be rude to her, and Wei Bingyue naturally didn't dare to argue with her.

Mrs. Wei saw him hesitate, and said, "Okay, Ah Yue, don't delay your discussion of the military, I'll go." With that, she walked down the steps, rode her horse, and headed towards the Shengping Gate.

Wei Yangyang opened his mouth and said, "Then, then I will go out of the city with you to meet the enemy!" Wei Bingyue thought for a moment: "No, after I take people out of the city in a while, you pull the drawbridge up, you stand on the city tower, face us with a bow and arrow, if someone enters the Sanli camp, you will order him to be shot." The three-mile camp he was talking about was thirty feet in front of the trench. Wei Yang said: "Yes." ”

Wei Bingyue also advised: "Whether it is our Wei family army or the enemy, as long as it is close to the trench thirty feet, they will all be shot to death." He paused and accentuated, "Including me." Wei Yangyang looked up at his brother.

Wei Bingyue said again: "What, you didn't understand the military order?" Wei Yangyang nodded emphatically: "Understood!" Wei Bingyue saw that she answered simply, so he said with confidence: "Put it to death and come back to life." ”

He raised his right hand again and pinched Wei Yangyang's fleshy left cheek. In the past, as long as Wei Yangyang did something wrong and said the wrong thing, he would pinch his face like this to teach her a lesson, the brother and sister called this "pinching buns", every time he pinched the buns, Wei Yangyang had to resist, this time was no exception, Wei Yangyang said: "You are not allowed to pinch my buns, you have to come back and eat my embroidered buns." Wei Bingyue let go of his hand, took a step back, and said loudly: "Okay!" ”

After that, he also walked down the tower, mounted his war horse, and instructed his subordinates: "Go on the march!" At this time, the soldiers put down the drawbridge, and the cavalry began to walk out of the city gate one after another. Wei Bingyue heard the sound of drums at the bottom of the city tower and shouted to the city tower: "Throw the gong down." ”

When the army was fighting, the drums were beaten, and the troops were withdrawn. The beat of the drum is the signal of the attack, and the sound of the gong is the signal of the withdrawal of the troops.

Since the whole city is determined to die, there is naturally no reason to withdraw the army, if it is defeated, what do you want to do? If you win, you don't care about buying another gong. When he shouted this, he was determined to go and never return. So when Wei Yangyang heard his shout, he really threw the gong down from the city tower and into the ditch.

After Wei Bingyue and the others walked out of the suspension bridge, Wei Yangyang hurriedly instructed people to raise the suspension bridge. In this way, there was only a trench thirty-six feet wide in front of the wall of Wanfumen. If the enemy wants to attack the city, he must set up a ladder and communicate through the trenches. When they passed, the archers on the tower of the city could take advantage of the opportunity to release their arrows.

Wei Bingyue and them lined up in the Sanli Battalion, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Water Demon Cavalry. There were thirteen thousand five hundred people up and down the tower. However, except for the sound of the hooves of the enemy cavalry rolling in the distance, the thirteen,500 men did not make the slightest sound. Everyone clutched their swords tightly and quietly waited for the moment when the big battle would come. Wei Yangyang saw that the smoke and dust were rising in the distance, and the sound of horses' hooves like thunder was getting closer and closer, the Water Demon Army was coming!

The younger brother of the Water Demon King, the right general Dun Bu is very proud at the moment. Two days ago, his younger brother Tuo Bujing, although he suffered heavy losses, he made a miraculous feat and wiped out all the high-ranking soldiers of the Wei family's blue battalion. And today, if he breaks the main camp of Haixi again. Then, the ink camp and the orange camp stationed in the southwest of the sea are not to be afraid. The entire Houwan County will have no danger to defend, and if the army goes south, the flowers and rivers of the Great Yang Kingdom will be exposed in front of them.

Every water demon cavalry had a smile on their faces, and this trip picked up a beautiful difference, as if in the Great Yang Kingdom, those gold, silver, jewelry, grain and forage, and the delicate Dayang woman were already in their arms.

When they had just passed Lehai, they had time to feed the horses. Nale Sea is located in the east of Haixi, and it is the only clear water lake in this arid place for hundreds of miles, and it has always been controlled by the Wei family. More than a dozen cities in the four neighboring countries can only drink rainwater. If it doesn't rain for a year, they can only drink salt water dug in the ground. If the Wei family is defeated this time, Lehai will be able to be included in the territory of the Water Demon Kingdom, which is simply happier than the New Year for the people of the north who can't rain a few times a year.

Watching the water demon cavalry leading the horse to drink in the sea of music, Wei Binggong and the soldiers were lying on the other side of the lake, motionless. The lake is not big, and the clean water produced is only enough for the Haixi people to drink water, eat and farm, and sometimes they have to feed the horses, and they are even reluctant to drink it. In order to compete for Lehai, Dayang, Water Devil, Xidi, Haisi, and Tyrant have fought many times. After all, having clean water means being able to grow food, and having food means that you can survive. The people take food as the sky, and this happy sea is of course more important than the lives of the people of Haixi!

But at this moment, the water devils came to grab the water, and they could only wait motionlessly, waiting for the critical moment to give the other party a fatal blow.

The northern border is not as prosperous as the Central Plains, and several counties are living very hard, and when the imperial court belittles officials and exiles prisoners, they will also be sent to Haixi. But when killing the enemy, each person killed can have a reward of fifty taels of silver, and fifty taels is enough for a family to eat white flour buns for several years! Therefore, there are also poor people in nearby counties, prefectures, and counties who can't survive, and they voluntarily drag their families to Haixi to fight. In addition to transferring grain, grass and weapons from the Central Plains every year, there is a reward for cutting ears, a reward for the death of a war, and a promotion for military functions, in short, as long as there is a man in the family who can go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions, the whole family can live.

Therefore, Haixi people are very fond of giving birth to boys, there are many sons in the family, that is simply the one who can make meritorious contributions to the glory of the ancestors, his generation, the Wei family has a total of fifteen brothers, plus more than 100 cousins, in Haixi, who is not envious?

Wei Bingkai watched as the water demon drank enough water and gradually left.
