"How's it going outside the city?" Qi Wukuo saw the spy coming back, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

He was afraid of fire.

"Lord Qi Wukuo, that fire is only very ordinary, and there is nothing special about it. The people of the city fell down and fell on the corpses, and none of the corpses below were ignited. The fire... The fire only seems to have burned down the ladder. The spy replied.

Qi Wukuo Xie breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good... That's it..."

"Pass the order, tomorrow morning, continue to attack the city!"

The million-strong army was even broken back to the city, but it was stopped by Jincheng, and Qi Wukuo did not believe in this evil.

As soon as the spies left, one of the generals stepped forward and asked, "My lord, should you wait for the Great Khan to come back..."

"Everything is waiting for the Great Khan, there are thousands of cities in the Central Plains, do you have to wait for the Great Khan to arrive before attacking?" Qi Wukuo rolled his eyes.

The generals did not dare to say much, so they retreated.

Seeing the big tent, all the generals were silent, and Qi Wukuo waved his hand to retreat them: "Let's all go and prepare, tomorrow we will not attack the city again, everyone, receive a fine of fifty military sticks!" Including myself! ”

The generals were shocked when they heard this, they were so ruthless that they even had to receive a fifty military stick themselves?

Seeing that Qi Wukuo didn't look like a joke, he hurriedly retired and prepared to arrange.

In the big tent, there is only one person left.

"To help you ascend to the position of Great Khan, I also want to help you take the Central Plains..."Qi Wukuo muttered to himself.

……

In the Jincheng County Yazhong, Yi Xiaodao and Zhou Ziru sat opposite each other.

"Do you really want to fight in the field tomorrow?" Yi Xiaodao was a little shocked.

Zhou Ziru nodded and took out a chessboard from the cabinet: "Wu Dinggong, can you play chess?" ”

Yi Xiaodao nodded slightly: "I have learned a little fur." ”

Zhou Ziru put the two chess jars in front of Yi Xiaodao, Yi Xiaodao hesitated for a moment and picked up the white chess jar.

"Kuroko go first." Zhou Ziru reminded.

Yi Xiaodao nodded: "I know, I'm just..."

"I just like Baizi."

Zhou Ziru picked up a sunspot and placed it in the upper right corner of the chessboard, giving up a large piece of the chessboard. Although it was the first move, it did not have an advantage.

"Wu Dinggong, there are some things that you don't say, but you can't do it."

"What's the matter?" Yi Xiaodao followed.

The two of them are on the chessboard, you go back and forth, and the speed starts to get faster.

"Duke Wu Ding knows that His Majesty is today... The secret? ”

Yi Xiaodao's heart moved, and the chess pieces in his hand stopped: "Your Majesty... What secrets can there be? ”

"Wu Dinggong to Miss Yue'er... The affection is deep, and now that the girl of Yue'er has died, Wu Dinggong can also do it without being alarmed. Zhou really admired, but this was also expected. Like Wu Dinggong, it is what ordinary people do. ”

"There is the world in my heart, there are beautiful women, and I have myself."

Yi Xiaodao asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

Zhou Ziru gave another son: "But now Your Majesty is... To tell the truth, His Majesty's martial arts realm is afraid that he can already compete with that Meng Mulie. ”

"At the beginning, Guanchenzi Daoist was plotted to death in Xigui, His Majesty was angry at the crown, and the entire capital was shaken, the sky was thundering, and the sky was mighty. Little Master Lichen and Qian Ning couldn't stop His Majesty alone. ”

"Does it matter?" Yi Xiaodao didn't quite understand.

Zhou Ziru smiled: "Duke Wuding was born as a beggar in the rivers and lakes, and looking for a beautiful woman will naturally cherish it a hundred times." But Your Majesty... Three palaces and six courtyards, there are countless concubines, but for a female Taoist, she is so out of shape. Isn't that strange? ”

Yi Xiaodao shook his head slowly: "Everyone's feelings are different, and what they like is also different, if it is just based on this, Zhou Xiang is inevitably too decisive." ”

Zhou Ziru smiled: "I'm not as good as you, I'm just an ordinary person, I can't know what's going on, and it's reasonable." ”

Yi Xiaodao looked at Zhou Ziru who was chuckling, and his heart was shocked. Based on speculation alone, it is inseparable from the truth, and the horror of Zhou Ziru is amazing.

"Forget it, let's talk about the current war, Wu Dinggong thinks that he can't fight in the field?"

"Beiyi is brave, and the field battle... It's going to be a big loss. ”

Zhou Ziru nodded: "Why don't I know?" It's just that when the soldiers and horses on both sides are fighting, the first priority is morale and fighting spirit, and if the fighting spirit is lost, it is a man-made sword, and I am a fish and meat. In today's battle, Wu Dinggong also saw it. If it weren't for the cavalry going out of the city, the 20,000 infantry would have died outside the city. ”

"In that case, the morale of the army will be lost. I'm afraid that if I can't wait for Wu Dinggong to make a move, the city gate will be breached. ”

"But the field battle may not be able to win, and the soldiers who go to war will definitely die!" Yi Xiaodao frowned and said: "The life of an ordinary soldier is also a life!" ”

On the chessboard, the chess game was halfway through, and the two were inseparable. Zhou Ziru got up, walked to the side of the cabinet, and opened the cabinet door.

"Whoa."

Countless pieces of paper slipped out of the cabinet and piled up on the floor.

"What is this?"

"These are all letters of war from sergeants and soldiers who have asked me to fight in the past few days. This is still written, and there are many soldiers, who came straight to me to ask for war. Otherwise, I am afraid that a cabinet will not fit. ”

Yi Xiaodao was stunned: "This... If you start a war with Beiyi, you will die. Why do they want to? ”

Zhou Ziru returned to the chessboard and sat down again: "Wu Dinggong is fighting outside, and there are many dangers, I shouldn't have asked this, but I still have to ask." ”

"Have you ever felt like you're waiting to die?"

Yi Xiaodao didn't come to his senses, and shook his head gently: "That's not true." ”

He is telling the truth, no matter where he is, when he encounters danger, he is either prepared for it or it happens suddenly. There hasn't been a single thing that makes Yi Xiaodao feel like he's waiting to die, at least not yet.

Zhou Ziru continued: "This 500,000 army is the feeling now. Whether they are here in Jincheng, Yangcheng, or Shoucheng... Not only them, but the entire Great Apocalypse is now waiting for death. ”

"You and I have unusual identities, one is the prince of the country, the other is the minister of literature, even if we really fight, our safety is still somewhat guaranteed."

"But as soon as the war began, they had to die. Today's rice may be the last bowl of rice, and today's jaw may be the last japon. No one knows when they will die, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow. ”

"The most terrible thing in the world is to wait for death. They couldn't stand the feeling of waiting to die, so they came to me to ask for war. It seems to be a battle and high morale, but in fact? It's just a search for relief. ”

Yi Xiaodao looked at the letters all over the ground, thoughtful: "So, tomorrow you will send these people to the field, first, to boost morale, and secondly, to fulfill them?" ”

Zhou Ziru shook his head: "They are all Daqi soldiers, they are all Daqi people, I don't want anyone to die." ”

"You..."

Yi Xiaodao looked at the chaotic chessboard, and casually took a look, within a dozen steps, both sides were indistinguishable from each other, and it was the same everywhere.

Zhou Ziru picked up a sunspot and motioned to Yi Xiaodao to look at the chessboard.

Yi Xiaodao looked down and saw that the sunspot was in the middle of Tianyuan's position!

The two of them have been down for a long time, and Tian Yuan is still vacant and no one is going down. This plate is full of disorganization, but Zhou Ziru was left behind in this Tianyuan.

In an instant, the chess game was revitalized, and Yi Xiaodao was already defeated.

A son is determined to kill, and the sand in the game is full of chaos!

Yi Xiaodao put the white zi in his hand back into the chess jar, he had already lost, and he didn't have the power to return to the sky.

At the same time, Yi Xiaodao also understood what Zhou Ziru meant: "Are you asking me to lead the army in the field tomorrow?" ”

Zhou Ziru shook his head again, it was easy for him to guess others, it was difficult for others to guess him, if his mind was so easy to guess, he would not be called Zhou Ziru.

"There's a more suitable candidate."

"The rider today?"

"He was dead, shot through the heart, and dead when he entered the city. Died on horseback. Zhou Ziru's tone was flat, as if he was talking about an inconsequential trivial matter.

"That..."Yi Xiaodao couldn't think of anyone else who could do it, according to him, the bravery of that cavalry general was also rare in the entire Yulin Army.

Zhou Ziru broke the candidate in his mind: "Fang Qianlong." ”

As soon as Yi Xiaodao heard Fang Qianlong's name, his eyes slowly narrowed, and even Zhou Ziru, who didn't know martial arts, could feel a trace of killing intent.

"He is the leader of the beggar gang, and if he can lead the army into battle, he can inspire the soldiers. At the same time, this matter spread all over the world, and the various sects on the rivers and lakes may not have no chivalrous warriors who are willing to serve the imperial court, and they may be the first to follow suit. ”

"The most important thing is that he leads the army to fight, and he is also the most suitable person on our side at the moment, and he has the greatest chance of winning."

Zhou Ziru hurriedly expressed his opinion, and it was not very pleasant to be stared at by Yi Xiaodao like this.

Yi Xiaodao restrained some of the cold light in his eyes, he couldn't refute it, Zhou Ziru was right.

"But he can't die." Yi Xiaodao said his bottom line.

"No one wants him to die, tomorrow you will personally sweep the formation, Meng Mulie is not there, I think, foolproof."

Yi Xiaodao hesitated for a long time, but finally nodded and agreed.

"If Duke Wuding agrees, then it will be easy to do. Now I will go to him myself, and it will be sooner rather than later. Zhou Ziru said, didn't bother to pack up the chessboard, got up and was about to leave.

Yi Xiaodao stretched out his hand and pressed Zhou Ziru. He has internal strength, and it couldn't be easier to hold down Zhou Ziru.

"Let's go, you have enough black cauldrons on your back. It's all for the people of the Great Apocalypse, and I can't just have a good name, right? ”

"The world is stable, and the Zhou family doesn't care about reputation." Zhou Ziru shook his head and smiled.

In the end, it was Yi Xiaodao who went.

When he came out of Fang Qianlong's room, it was also late at night.

Fang Qianlong agreed, but Yi Xiaodao was not happy.

He Yue'er died in front of his eyes, and he couldn't save it.

Zhou Ziru listened to the official's report and ordered: "The Yulin army from the surrounding cities must go out of the city tomorrow to fight." Those who can drive Beiyi back for five miles will be promoted to the third level! ”

……

North of the mall and south of Jincheng, the soldiers and horses of the brigade are marching northward.

In the middle of the car, a person opened his eyes, and his eyes were as bright as stars...
