In fact, in the face of the current situation, if it weren't for Qin He's reminder, Bi Hanlin really wouldn't have noticed this.

And at this moment, Qin He also nodded slightly.

"If he can directly take Qinghe Prefecture, whether it is east, west or south, he will be able to dash our formation."

"In this way, if our formation falls apart, it means that we are completely finished."

Qin He's words did not have any alarmism.

Because now all of this is true.

At least judging from the current situation, if the butcher really attacked him, it would definitely give them a fatal blow.

Coupled with the fact that there has been no action for so long, it is obviously preparing something, if not, how can it be possible to wait so long?

Thinking about it this way, what is the butcher waiting for?

At this moment, even if Qin He didn't say this, Bi Hanlin had already thought of this, and the two of them fell into contemplation at the same time.

What the hell are they waiting for?

After a while, Qin He's gaze suddenly fell on Bi Hanlin on the side, and the expression on his face suddenly changed greatly.

Bi Hanlin couldn't help but be slightly stunned when Qin He looked at him like this.

And in the next moment, Bi Hanlin seemed to think of something.

"They're waiting for the two of us to be in Qinghe Prefecture at the same time!"

The next moment, Bi Hanlin and Qin He said this sentence almost in unison.

And at the same time as the two of them said this, a chill suddenly spread from the backs of the two.

If before that, the butchers didn't make any moves, because they weren't prepared......

Then now they are not moving, that is because Qin He and Bi Hanlin are separated.

But now he, Qin He and Bi Hanlin, both of them are in this Qinghe Prefecture.

This also means that the reunion of the two also gave Zeng Butcher the opportunity to do it.

Thinking of this, whether it was Qin He or Bi Hanlin, both of them felt that this guy surnamed Zeng was too crazy.

However, at this time, the appearance of a voice suddenly broke the atmosphere between the two.

"Report!"

Hearing the sound coming from outside the door, Qin He and Bi Hanlin chuckled again in their hearts.

"Come in."

Qin He lowered his voice and spoke.

In the next moment, a militiaman had already entered the room, and from his face at the moment, it was not difficult to see that it was definitely not good news.

Sure enough, the next moment the militia had already spoken.

"Lord Hui Bingqin, according to the news from the front, the traces of the southbound army have been discovered."

While hearing this, Bi Hanlin and Qin He both had a wry smile on their faces.

Sure enough, it was the same as Qin He guessed.

It's just that with the current situation, it's obviously too late.

"How far is it from us to find out where they are?"

The next moment, Qin He asked in a cold voice.

Upon hearing this, the militiaman hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke.

"Less than a hundred miles."

In just four words, it seemed to be a thunderstorm, and it exploded directly in the hearts of Qin He and Bi Hanlin.

With the current strength of the surrounding Qinghe Prefecture, it is almost impossible to stop the southward army.

This also means that now they can only defend Qinghe City.

Taking a deep breath, Qin He finally had to give an order.

"Order all the teams to return to Qinghe Prefecture immediately!"

"In addition, send messengers to inform our brothers in the rest of the country of the situation on our side, so that they can come over for reinforcements immediately."

After giving two orders in succession, Qin He exhaled.

On the other side, Bi Hanlin only came back to his senses from Fang Cai's surprise when he heard Qin He's two orders.

For Bi Hanlin, he didn't expect things to turn out like this.

You must know that Nanyang City is far away from them, not to mention that it will take four or five days of effort, of course, this is still in the case of a quick horse.

If you want to really get everyone here, it will take at least ten days.

The only one closest to them was Li Yang.

It's just that the militia led by Li Yang fought at sea.

As for whether the combat capability will be greatly reduced now that it has been transferred to land, this is still a question.

At the same time, the army that went to the Yanyu Province was the main force, but if you want to come from there, it will take at least half a month.

In this way, this means that even if you wait for support, you have to wait for ten days.

Although they were confident that they would not be breached for ten days, it did not mean that they would be able to break through the enemy's encirclement when reinforcements arrived.

You must know that there are only more than 10,000 troops in Nanyang City.

According to the news that came back, the strength of Zeng Butcher's men is far more than 10,000 now, even if you add the people in Qinghe City now, all the people are soldiers, and at the same time, counting Li Yang, they are only 100,000 people.

100,000 people may seem like a lot, but there is a problem in front of us, and this problem is the most intractable and deadly problem today.

That's food.

To know that 100,000 people need to consume food a day is already an astronomical amount.

What's more, there is not too much food hoarded in this Qinghe City now.

Even if it is transported to Dongqin Island now, how much can it be transported back and forth?

You must know that the army that is now heading south is not more than a hundred miles away from them.

According to this situation, it will only take three days at most, and Qinghe City will be able to be directly sandwiched.

Of course, Qin He and Bi Hanlin can choose to flee to Dongqin Island.

It's just that in this way, it also means that the people in the entire Qinghe City will become victims.

According to Bi Hanlin's previous statement, if the city gate was really broken by the butcher, with his character, no one knew whether the people of Qinghe City would be slaughtered.

So even in the current situation, Qin He had to choose to defend Qinghe City.

He couldn't leave, and once he left this Qinghe City, it would mean that he had completely given up all his previous efforts.

Even if in the end, he was really able to repel the southbound army, but in terms of people's hearts, he had completely lost it.

For Qin He, he naturally didn't want to see the current scene.

Looking up at Bi Hanlin beside him, Qin He showed a wry smile on his face.

"General Bi, I hope you return to Dongqin Island!"

At the same time as Qin He finished saying this, Bi Hanlin's face obviously showed a look of surprise.

Because he didn't expect Qin He to say this at all.

When Bi Hanlin, who had reacted, looked at Qin He again, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"Why don't you kid go back to Dongqin Island?"

Hearing Bi Hanlin's words, Qin He smiled bitterly.

In the end, he said this lightly.

"Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world!"
