Chapter 430: Scorched
The messenger sighed dumbly in his heart, and he didn't know what shit luck these Northern Dynasties had gotten.
"How much oil is left?"
Xie Zhao turned to look at Ling Or beside him.
It is inconvenient for her to participate in the battle in person, but it is okay to do some city construction and defense in Langya Pass and in the city, or some logistical layout.
Today, the eldest princess An Ning is in the old mansion of the Laiyang mother's family, and there are guards of the imperial city by her side.
And Peng Xiao returned to the side of the fortress, so Ling He naturally didn't have to guard the Anning Eldest Princess's Mansion anymore.
Eight months earlier, he had gone north with her.
As for Bo Xu, her identity is a little embarrassing, so since the beginning of the war, the deputy envoy of Hulu took the initiative to leave and returned to the Hulu Holy Altar, it is said that she has some personal matters to do.
However, the most outrageous thing turned out to be Han Changsheng.
Eight months ago, he actually left a letter in the inn of Zhaoge City, and he said goodbye without saying goodbye.
said that it was the first month of the New Year, and seeing the family reunion in Zhaoge City aroused the heart of his wanderer who had been away from home for a long time. He was a little homesick and wanted to go back and see.
In Xie Zhao's later words, that was simply!
This guy is very ambitious, and he will be homesick for ghosts!
However, fortunately, this guy is finally willing to go home, which can be regarded as avoiding the chaos after that.
Xie Zhao said that he was actually relieved for him in his heart.
Han Changsheng's temperament was outrageous, his actions were a little reckless, and he couldn't stand the boring and lonely wolf smoke war at the border pass.
It is also a good thing that he is now willing to take the initiative to go back to the "Dream Order", so as not to worry about the safety of this little order master at all times.
When Ling Or heard her question, he didn't feel optimistic in his heart.
He frowned and said, "There are less than a thousand barrels of kerosene." ”
Nanchao Tianchen is not good at firearms, and he is even better at turning off and expanding.
In addition, there has been no war at the border for so many years, so the storage of firearms, fire oil and other materials in Langya Pass is not abundant, and more are cold weapons such as swords, guns and halberds.
Ling Or frowned and said, "Can reinforcements come these days?" ”
Xie Zhao shook his head slightly.
The border army of the Southern Dynasties in the southwest and the border army of Langya Pass in the north have been strong generals of the Southern Dynasties since ancient times.
However, Wu Yong, the envoy of the southwest of the country, died a few years ago, and most of his lieutenants and relatives were also convicted of the same crime at that time.
In today's southwest, there are also very few available.
Even if the court finally made a name for itself a few days ago, and decided to approve the distribution of a quarter of the soldiers from the southwest border to support the northern border, but calculating the time, it was still far from quenching the thirst at this time.
If you can really wait for reinforcements in the past few days, it will really be regarded as the accumulation of virtue by the ancestors.
I'm afraid that if the extreme west and the north rush over, they will also be sleepy and lacking.
In addition, it is necessary to integrate and cooperate with the soldiers of Langya Pass in the north, and it is estimated that it will not be able to go to the battlefield for the time being.
Xie Zhao frowned slightly.
The border war has affected the whole body, and it has taken several days to send the twists and turns of Langya Pass from the border plug for most of the past six months.
Then the court decides that the parties will inevitably quarrel endlessly, and those who are in the main battle and those who are in peace will have to quarrel over each other.
When everything is decided, the food and grass are needed, and the whole army is ready to go, which one does not need time?
The Southern Dynasties have been smooth for many years, and most of the capable and capable generals at the border pass have been idle or looking for another way out in these years.
That is, Peng Xiao, the personal disciple of General Xie back then, was born in a family but his mind was unwavering, and he still guarded the bitter cold land of Langya Pass for so many years.
The other is Wu Yong.
He found a different way to change the track, and returned to the southwest border of his hometown, guarding the southwest border as an envoy, and guarding the barbaric Baiyi who often made chaos on the border.
However, it is a pity that General Wu is a hero, and the stigma of colluding with bandits has not been cleared so far.
The northerner came too suddenly, and she left in Zhaoge in a hurry that day, and she didn't have time to plan for him to clear his grievances.
But fortunately, Wu Ruoshu, the only daughter of Wu Yong, Miss Wu of the Wu family, has been properly placed by her to work in the maintenance department.
Before Xie Zhao left, he also entrusted the little priest in the Shentai Palace who was responsible for the daily management of the maintenance department to take more care of this lady.
Ling He hit the nail on the head and said: "I'm afraid this thousand barrels of fire oil won't last for a month." ”
"If you can't hold on, you have to persevere."
Xie Zhao finished speaking, turned around and walked quickly down the city wall.
She shook the water bladder around her waist and found that it was already empty.
So she casually "tsk", and said to Ling Or, who was also walking down the city wall with her:
"Lao Ling, tell the back to divide three hundred barrels of fire oil first, and give them to the roof of the Beicheng Tower, at least resist for two days, and wait for the half of the new wall to solidify!"
Ling or frowned.
Can this work? However, even with the oil on the top, the north was still closest to the Hanyong Iron Cavalry Camp of the Northern Dynasty, and the offensive was the most violent. ”
Behind Xie Zhao was the dimmer and darker sunset not far away.
The faint light reflected her dusty but still beautiful face, reflecting a dim yellow aura.
She walked briskly down the city wall and said with a light smile:
"Naturally, it won't work with fire oil alone."
Xie Zhao took the reins handed over by the soldiers waiting under the city, turned over the horse neatly, looked at Ling He condescendingly, and said:
"But what if there is a cavalry that quietly detours to the depths of the northern border, penetrates deep into the rear of Beiyi, and burns their king's tent camp to supply grain and grass? They can at least stop for a while, right? ”
Ling He's pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately stepped forward, grabbed the horse's mane, and exclaimed:
"How is this possible? Don't come nonsense! The army of Handyong spread out on the whole line and pressed the border to the south, and both sides of the Bisobuda River were the military tents of Handyong.
The scout was unable to make a detour through the enemy line of the Biso Buda River to the king's tent without alarming anyone, and this trip was tantamount to death for the scout. ”
"If the scout's kung fu doesn't get home, naturally he can't."
Xie Zhao tilted his head and smiled, and the corners of his mouth grinned with a ruffian aura that was so angry that he couldn't pay for his life:
"But I can do it, don't you go to the flower building in a group to burn grain and grass on weekdays, do you want so many people to do it? Soldiers are expensive, not too expensive, do you know Ling Shaoxia? ”
Poor Ling Shaoxia's usual good temper was also angry with her.
"Xie Zhao! Have you ever thought that if the 'Chitose Sword Immortal' is known to be in the war, will the 'Lone Wolf Sword Immortal' Yu Wenxin make a big fuss about it?
If he also uses this as an excuse to go to the battlefield in person, then I am afraid that the situation will be even more unfavorable to our Southern Dynasty! ”
Xie Zhao, the former Immortal Xuan Realm, now has no internal strength and strength has been greatly reduced, but Yu Wenxin is a genuine Immortal Realm!
Xie Zhao smiled when she heard this, and a small pear vortex rose slightly on her lips, looking sly and slippery.
"What are you afraid of? The one who was about to lead the team across the Biso Buda River was the Southern Dynasty scout 'Xie Zhao', who barely had a few light skills in the Jin Yao Realm, but it was not the 'Chitose Sword Immortal' rune that ranked among the immortals. ”
