Although Han Zong's acting skills are clumsy, he is better than Han Dang's son.

Compared with the outsider Long Xiang, Zhu Zhi and Zhang Zhao believed in their own people more, accepted him in three or two sentences, and praised him for his ability to be a snake.

On the way back to the county government, Zhu Zhi and Zhang Zhao let Han Zong ride in the same car with the two, and took the opportunity to understand Long Xiang's reality.

Han Zong started from throwing Niu Zhu until Zhu Huan strayed into the thief's den.

He portrayed Long Xiang as a man who likes to sneak attack and bully more than he can, while Han Zong packaged himself as a victim, and made compromises all the way to report the news.

Zhu Zhi and Zhang Zhao are both old rivers and lakes, and they have their own judgments on the merits, so they don't easily draw conclusions.

On the way, Zhu Zhi asked Han Zong to go home to report his safety, and then go to the county guard mansion tomorrow to listen to it.

Wu County is employing people at this time, and Han Zong has experience in leading troops to fight, Zhu Zhi is ready to send him 200 soldiers to defend the city, and he said in his heart that even if he is disgusted with Long Xiang once.

Han Zong got off the train and went home, leaving Zhu Zhi and Zhang Zhao in the carriage.

Both of them didn't speak at first, but in the end, Zhu Zhi didn't hold back.

"The situation is more serious than we thought, Long Xiang divided his troops Lu Su and Xu Chu to guard Liyang, and blocked Han Yigong in Danyang and couldn't come back, if he deliberately blocked the river, I was afraid that the main reinforcements would not come back, it seems that Long Xiang has been planning for a long time."

"The most pity is the Wucheng garrison, how could Humu make such a big mistake? In vain, more than 10,000 parts have become decorations, although I can use the strategy to delay a little, but I am afraid that a war will be inevitable, but fortunately, the weather is cold now, and it is not easy for Long Xiang to break the city, I am afraid that the siege will be too long and the city will be chaotic." Zhang Zhao frowned.

Although the garrison of Wu County was only 3,000, and the consumption of grain was far less than that of Long Xiang, there were still tens of thousands of people in the city, and they were all food consumers.

Wu County has jurisdiction over 13 counties, with a total population of more than 700,000 people, of which Wu County has the largest number of people.

In recent years, Sun Quan has continued to use troops abroad, hollowing out the ordinary people and the government's grain stocks, and the real grain is all the landlords Haoqiang, but most of their granaries are outside the city, but now they have become Longxiang's granaries.

If the city gate is closed, the food in the city can only last for a month or two, so Zhang Zhaote is worried that the weather will get warmer.

At that time, when spring returns to the earth, the warm weather is conducive to the siege of Longxiang, and the city will gradually run out of cooking, which may cause unrest.

Zhu Zhi heard Zhang Zhao's worries, and said with a serious sense of relief: "Anyway, Long Xiang is drinking wind and dew outside the city, and they must be the ones who can't stand it first, Han Yigong and the main duke's reinforcements can't be pointed out for the time being, but if someone is sent to break through to Wucheng to report the news, Humu (Zhu Huan)'s troops may come to the rescue, and He Gongmiao (He Qi) is quelling the rebellion in the south of Huiji, can he be allowed to come back to help."

"Although the ideal method is good, you can also send a sentry to give it a try, but don't get your hopes up."

Zhang Zhao poured cold water and explained: "After all, Hugh Mu was captured by Long Xiang, and his subordinates will also throw a rat trap when he receives the order, and I heard that He Gongmiao's army is Shangrao, and it has reached the boundary of Yuzhang, the mountain is high and the road is far away, and the round trip is too long, the most important thing is that Long Xiang has besieged the city, and there are warships docked at the mouth of the Songjiang River, and your people may not be able to break out of the encirclement."

Zhu Zhi frowned and his expression was serious: "According to Zibu, you said so?" Wu County is dangerous now? ”

"Not really."

Zhang Zhao shook his head lightly and added: "Wait for me to delay Long Xiang for a few more days, first frustrate his sharpness, and then lure him to attack the city, and consume the opponent's combat power in winter, as long as we successfully defend the city a few times, we can take the initiative, but"

"But what?"

Seeing Zhu Zhi's aggressive questioning, Zhang Zhao replied with a solemn face: "I'm worried that Long Xiang will besiege and not attack."

"Long Xiang ran thousands of miles to Wu, and in the end he only besieged but did not attack? It's unlikely, right? Zhu Zhi thought about it for a while, showing an expression of disbelief.

Zhang Zhao shook his head and didn't answer, and then the carriage stopped at Taishoufu.

Zhu Zhi and Zhang Zhao got out of the car and were about to enter the house, when suddenly the sound of horses' hooves on the empty street behind them was urgent.

Turning around and looking back, he saw a scout coming from Pegasus.

When the scout said that there was a team of soldiers and horses, passing by the north gate and continuing to walk north, Zhu Zhi suddenly felt a sigh in his heart, and his heart was really hit by Zhang Zhaoyan.

Zhang Zhao's face turned pale, and he muttered: "North of Wu County is Wuxi, and this guy is so fast."

"Let's go, let's go into the house and talk in detail." Zhu Zhi made a guiding gesture with a dark face.

Soon after Sun Quan took office, the four counties of Lou County, Youquan, Wuxi, and Piling were Zhuzhi Shiyi, of which Wuxi and Piling (Changzhou) were in the north, Lou County (Kunshan) was in the east, and Yuquan (Jiaxing) was in the south.

Long Xiang took food in Zhuzhi Fengyi, and it was more uncomfortable for anyone to stay.

It is shaped like chess, and the big knife cuts out the heart.

Chen Bing outside Longxiang City, and martial law inside Zhu Zhi City.

Although it did not cause panic and confusion, it also caused panic in people's hearts.

The last time he encountered a military disaster was ten years ago, when Zhu Zhi defeated Xu Gong and led the affairs of Taishou in his descendants.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, Buddhism did not flourish, but the southeast brought out a group of believers because of the fanaticism of Zhenrong.

Cause and effect reincarnation, feng shui reincarnation.

Zhu Zhi planted the cause ten years ago, and ten years later it bore bitter fruit.

The war disaster has come, and the people have started to talk about it.

Most of them joined in the fun, and there were more people who should use the topic to play and add fuel to the fire, and the civil and military officials in the city went to the Taishou Mansion together.

Zhu Zhi, Zhang Zhao and the ministers discussed until late at night, and everyone was talking about the problem and the reason, but no one could come up with a way to deal with it.

It is in response to the sentence 'Although there are a thousand words in the pen, there is really no plan in the chest.' ’

The night was cold and windy, and except for the patrolling soldiers on the streets of Wuxian County, no dog barking could be heard.

Jiangdong Wenwu, who gathered in Taishou Mansion, should have gone home to rest directly after leaving the mansion, but when Gu Yong arrived home, he saw many acquaintances, all of whom were local scholars.

The next day, the outside of the city was really calm, and the people in the city took to the streets one after another.

On the third day of the appointment, Zhu Zhi and Zhang Zhao went to the city tower again, thinking about delaying Long Xiang for a few more days.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Zhao finished talking about the difficulties, before he called Han Zong out to testify, Long Xiang waved his hand and laughed loudly:

"Don't be in a hurry, you do your work slowly, the first month is a festive and peaceful day, my son has not been to the prosperous Wudi, just take the opportunity to walk around, yesterday some people went to Wuxi, I heard that there is a strong festival atmosphere there, today I plan to send someone to Lou County to see."

"Uh, General Long, at will."

Knowing that Long Xiang was threatening, Zhang Zhao still had to accompany the smiling face.

Long Xiang was like seeing a strange netizen, and after a few simple chats, he turned around and left, not even setting the time for the next conversation, leaving Zhu Zhi and Zhang Zhao messy in the cold wind.

When he went downstairs, he was so angry that Zhu Zhi smashed his fist on the wall, and said viciously: "Long Xiang, this guy is really treacherous, we can't be so passive, we choose scouts to go out of the city at night, I don't believe that we can surround it tightly." ”

"Now I have to be like this, who would have thought that Long Xiang was young, but he was more calm than the old dog, I underestimated him" Zhang Zhao shook his head and sighed beside him.

At the beginning of the first month, the sky in Wu County was cold and cloudy.

At night, the stars and moon disappeared, and it was pitch black.

The scouts went out of the city at night and could not find the way, so they could only break through by the glimmer of light on the eve of dawn, but this move was obviously in vain.

Under the dimensionality reduction blow of the clairvoyant mirror, the surroundings of Wu County have been monitored in all directions, and no one can escape from Long Xiang's palm.
