Zhang Yun was in a coma for a day, and when he woke up, it was the second day and night.

Hearing that he woke up, Zhang Chengda breathed a sigh of relief, if his three nephews were killed and died under the city of Nanping, and he was the only one alive, if the news was transmitted back to northern Hebei, his eldest brother suspected that he was a ghost, although he never had this intention.

He asked people to help him to Zhang Yun's camp, and when he saw Zhang Yun lying on the bed with a pale face, he stepped forward and asked, "Yun'er, how do you feel?" Are you okay? ”

"Second uncle, I'm fine." Zhang Yun saw that Zhang Cheng was also pale, and he looked very weak when he was injured, and his face sank, "Second uncle, who are you?" ”

He had just woken up, and he hadn't had time to ask him about what happened after he was stabbed by Zhou Gu.

Zhang Chengdao: "I was also assassinated, and it happened at the same time as when you were assassinated." ”

Zhang Yun immediately asked, "Who assassinated the second uncle?" ”

Zhang Cheng shook his head, "That person is masked, I don't know who it is." ”

He looked at Zhang Yun, still a little skeptical, "The person who assassinated you, did you see it clearly?" Is it really the Protector's Mansion? ”

"It's him." Zhang Yun is very sure, "He didn't wear a face toshel or a mask, I have seen his portrait, it is him, and I will not admit my mistake." ”

"Since you're so sure, he's bold." Zhang Cheng commented, and briefly said that he took people to the barracks late at night last night, secretly assassinated him, Zhang Xing was killed, and he ordered people to search the mountain, and he searched for a day without yielding anything.

"Second uncle shouldn't send someone to search the mountain, the most important thing to do is to attack the city as soon as possible." Zhang Yun disagreed.

"Hey, how can you and I attack the city like this now? I have been lying in my tent all day, and you have been unconscious all day. Zhang Chengdao: "You must take care of your injuries for two days, otherwise there will be no one to command, and even if you can capture it, you will suffer heavy damage, so you can only postpone the siege." ”

He still cherishes soldiers and horses, after all, it is not easy to raise.

Zhang Yun's face was not good-looking, but he also felt that what Zhang Cheng said made some sense, "But I'm afraid that there will be many dreams at night." ”

"Don't be afraid, you can always hold out for another three days. Even if the news leaks out, the reinforcements from the imperial court will not come so quickly, so let's just be able to capture Nanping City before the reinforcements come. Zhang Chengdao.

Zhang Yun nodded, "Since the second uncle said so, then so be it!" ”

Although he is in a hurry now, his body knows that he is indeed too injured to move.

"You were very dangerous last night, Zhou Gu's sword almost hurt your heart, and soon after the military doctor bandaged you, you had a high fever again, and it was hard to get rid of the fever. Let's take care of it first! Zhang Cheng was glad that he was wise, yesterday since his nephew came, seeing that he didn't even consider Zhang Mao's life and asked him to attack the city, he was cold, afraid that he would take the opportunity to seize power, so he left a guard in the camp tent, but he didn't expect it to work, although he didn't prevent him, but he guarded against others, and yesterday he broke into his camp tent was also a master, otherwise he wouldn't have killed his guards and finally stabbed him with a sword. If he only had himself yesterday, he would have died like Zhang Xing.

Zhang Yun bowed his head, "Listen to the second uncle." ”

The uncle and nephew discussed for a while, Zhang Yun couldn't bear the weakness and fell asleep again, and Zhang Cheng also returned to his tent. The soldiers who were sent to search were not recalled and continued to search outside.

In Nanping City, Ning Chi and the others have been holding their hearts, not daring to relax at all, although the barracks of 200,000 soldiers and horses last night were chaotic for a while, I don't know what happened, although the opportunity is very good, but Ning Chi still didn't dare to move, after all, it was 200,000 soldiers and horses, and in his hands, there were only 30,000, even if he went out to take the opportunity to do it, he couldn't beat 200,000 soldiers and horses.

Ning Chi could only be fully armed and on guard, while also anxiously waiting for reinforcements.

Ning Ze also went to chat with Zhang Mao in the secret prison when he was free, and asked Zhang Mao something about the Pingxi General's Mansion in Northern Hebei, at this time, Zhang Mao no longer waited for Su Rong, he would answer all questions, and the words he said were according to Ning Ze's judgment, not like a lie.

For example, he said that the Pingxi General's Mansion in northern Hebei raised 450,000 soldiers.

Ning Ze was shocked, "Four hundred and fifty thousand? ”

He remembered that the Protectorate Mansion had only raised 300,000 soldiers, right?

Zhang Mao nodded.

Ning Ze couldn't believe it, "Where did all these people go?" Why are so many people joining the army in northern Hebei? ”

According to the imperial court regulations, only 100,000 soldiers and horses are allowed to be raised in northern Hebei, which is an extra 350,000, what a huge number, no wonder the Pingxi General's Mansion in northern Hebei has been able to swallow the silver of the treasury for so many years.

"My father has in his hands the secret decree of His Majesty to send someone to privately expand the Northern Hebei Army." Zhang Mao said: "You know, Your Majesty was afraid of the East Palace in those years, guarding against the Protector Mansion, afraid that the two sides would join forces and threaten Your Majesty's throne, my father knew that His Majesty was uneasy, so when he entered Beijing to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother, he asked His Majesty to privately raise soldiers and horses, more than the Protector Mansion, in case there is a day when the Protector Mansion is in turmoil." ”

Ning Ze nodded, it was four years ago when the Queen Mother died, so Zhang Ping pouted His Majesty, and it was higher than that. After all, that was when the Queen Mother was still alive.

He felt that he might as well not listen to this news, so many soldiers in the Northern Hebei Army were afraid that it would be over, right?

He was speechless, "Why is Your Majesty so stupid?" ”

Zhang Mao said: "It is indeed very stupid, he doesn't believe in the East Palace, he doesn't believe in the Protector's Mansion, but he believes in my father." ”

Ning Ze whispered: "How did such a dim Your Majesty give birth to a wise prince?" No, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not His Majesty's own son, right? ”

Zhang Mao was silent, and he didn't know either.

Ning Ze shook his head, "No, no, it must be pro, bah, bah, I can't think so, Miss Seven and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are cousins and sisters, and the relationship is excellent, I can't say this in the future, Miss Seven is facing the prince, if she hears it, what if she doesn't take me to Nanchu?" ”

Zhang Mao looked at him, "Are you thinking a little far?" It's better to think about how to get past the current level first. As long as the city is attacked outside and reinforcements are not available, are you sure you can get out of Nanping City and go to Nanchu alive? ”

Ning Ze didn't like to listen to it, and said viciously: "As long as the city is attacked outside, once it can't withstand it, I will kill you first, and you won't be able to live if I die, and the two of us will die together." You'd better pray that your second uncle will not attack the city because he cares about you, and hopes that reinforcements will come soon. Otherwise, we will also have to be a pair of ghosts under Jiuquan. ”

Zhang Mao: "......"

He knew that he would have given up on running away or being rescued, from the time he was caught.

Seeing that he was no longer talking, Ning Ze snorted, "Last night, there was chaos in the barracks of the Northern Hebei Army for a while, shouting and shouting and killing, as if they had entered the assassins. Later, my eldest brother said that the Northern Hebei Army had transferred 100,000 soldiers and horses, and it seemed that they were going to do something, but we were trapped in the city, and we couldn't get any information about what they were going to do. However, it is guessed that there should be no siege for a while. ”

Commuter pass, what's it?
