After hearing this, Zhu Jin was startled and said: "Commander, please be cautious, if all the defense battalions of Lianghe City are dispatched and concentrated in Tanghe City, it means that the remaining forty cities will become empty cities, and once a major incident occurs, it will not be able to save the emergency, and it will cause great losses." ”

Zhang Ye took a few more steps and said, "Of course I understand what you said. But have you noticed a problem. ”

"Please give me advice?" Zhu Jin knelt respectfully.

Zhang Ye helped her up and said, "The death of the Huangshi Department already represents that the other party's mysterious power is very strong, and the Tanggu Glacier is only half an hour's road away from the main city of the Tang River. Under such circumstances, during such a long gap before our expedition, the main city of the Tang River was not greatly harassed?"

"This ......" Zhu Jin hesitated.

Zhang Ye said: "Also, before the Huangshi Department set out on the expedition, this bandit was obviously already deployed in the Lianghe Province, and they had the strength to completely wipe out all the cities, but they never moved, only a small force harassed the cities in various places. What do you think that means?"

Zhu Jin said movingly: "This means that no matter what the reason, they don't want to destroy the city. Their real purpose is to attract the forces of the Peerless City to go on the expedition, and then march to annihilate!"

"Not bad. Zhang Ye walked up to the high hall and sat down, "This is the way once and for all, the bandits that escalate step by step will eventually attract the Huangshi Department to go on the expedition, and the death of the Huangshi Department means that the commander will definitely go on the expedition, this is their purpose." Their purpose is to be handsome. And not the city. If strength is not concentrated, it is not called strength. It was so decided, and the order of the governor of the capital was passed on, and the city defense battalion of Lianghe Province was ordered to be stationed in the periphery of the main city of the Tang River. ”

Zhu Jin looked very cautious, and said with some worry: "But Yeshuai, although he said so, once the two rivers and forty cities become empty cities, it is still a little inappropriate, and once something happens to the city, we will inevitably bear a lot of pressure in the court, and it will also cause too much resentment among the people." Moreover, we have never figured out the reason why the other party did not destroy the city. ”

Zhang Ye nodded and said, "We really don't know the reason, but this is the fact and the phenomenon." Ben Shuai suspected that not destroying the city was the bottom line of the Sky Leopard, and it was the balance between him and Dongfang Bai. No matter how bad the Sky Leopard is, he is also a peerless minister, and he will not want the Peerless Realm to be angry. Let's use this to make decisions and fight a tough battle with them here. After a pause, Zhang Ye said again: "As for the emptiness of the two rivers and forty cities, this is indeed a hidden danger, and it is also a place that will be used by them, and it will cause rhetoric in the court." But the generals are outside, even if it is the king's order, they don't have to listen to it. Fighting, of course, carries the risk of sacrifice. It is a shame for the military to let civilians risk their sacrifices, but there is one exception, and that is that as long as we can win this war, as long as we can relieve the bandits in the central provinces and give hundreds of millions of subjects long-term peace and stability, then we can do it. You can't complain if you really sacrifice one or two cities, because this is a war, not a house, not a dinner. ”

"The last general understands the painstaking work of the marshal and obeys the order. Zhu Jin hugged his fists.

"Go, raise the king's banner, raise the banner of the governor of the pacification of the capital, and spread the word to all the city defense camps in the border of the two rivers. After Zhang Ye finished speaking, he got up and left the tent.

Zhu Jin immediately went to handle it.

Zhang Ye didn't leave immediately, standing outside the Longwei Camp Tower, looking up at the snowy sky, looking at the mysterious ancient Tanggu Glacier that was towering like a cloud five hundred miles away.

Whoosh - occasionally I saw the tower of the Longwei camp, spewing out colorful flying swords, a total of forty, this is the transmission of the whole city defense camp of the two rivers, and the general order of the governor of the town.

After a while, Zhang Ye suddenly turned his head to look at the big bird beside him, Ah Bao, and said, "Ah Bao, how high can you fly?"

The crane Ah Bao croaked: "Senior brother, Ah Bao can fly very high." ”

Zhang Ye said: "How high is very high?"

Ah Bao shook his head and said: "Ah Bao has no concept, it's just that Ah Bao can fly up to the highest clouds, Ah Bao is not afraid of the wind by nature, and he can reach heights that Jindan cultivators can't reach." ”

Zhang Ye was also a little surprised, he couldn't imagine that Ah Bao, as an immortal crane that is not usually very useful, would have such a use.

"That's good, Po. Zhang Ye patted her head and said: "You fly to the highest limit, and then look down at the boundary of Tanggu Glacier, remember, you can see it if you can, you can't force it if you can't see clearly, and you must not lower the altitude." Run away and come back if you have a situation, remember?"

Po remembered. Po said.

Zhang Ye took out one of the few remaining Biluo Qiyang Dan from the gourd, put it in Ah Bao's mouth and said: "Hold it, don't eat it until you have to, now our resources are very tight, go ahead, be careful yourself." ”

"Yes. As soon as Ah Bao opened his mouth to agree, the pill given to her immediately fell out.

Zhang Ye was deflated for a while, picked it up and put it in her mouth, patted her head and said, "Go, stop talking, be careful." ”

Whoosh - As soon as Ah Bao's wings were spread, four feet long, he looked at the mighty and domineering, like a rocket, rising in a straight line and rushing into the sky.

Zhang Ye always looked up and watched, and after a while, even Zhang Ye's eyes could no longer see Ah Bao, and he couldn't sense it. This shows that she is really powerful and can fly into heights that Jin Dan can't reach.

Zhang Ye continued to let Long Wei maintain the defense, just waiting for this in the ice and snow.

It lasted for an hour, and when Zhang Ye was getting more and more worried, a black spot finally appeared in the sky above, accompanied by a chirp, which was Ah Bao diving at the fastest speed.

Zhang Ye's color changed suddenly, knowing that Ah Bao was in danger, she dived from the sky so quickly, falling like a ballistic missile, the pressure on her own feathers was very great, and she opened her mouth to scream, which meant that the Biluo Qiyang Pill had been taken by her.

From a distance of about the same time, Zhang Ye rose into the sky, and when he was close to Ah Bao, Zhang Ye waved out a thick gang qi, and the dense breath supported Ah Bao and forcibly made her slow down.

But even so, there was still a little irresistible look, and the feathers on Bao's body shone on a ball of fire, and they wanted to rub against the air to start a fire.

It wasn't until a few hundred meters above the ground that Zhang Ye let out a second burst of qi that stopped Bao's fall.

Poof--In the end, Bao's huge body was caught by Zhang Ye. At a glance, because he was too flustered and too fast just now, Bao's feathers and body burned out of shape.

Bao's vitality is very strong, but she has the mentality of a little girl, lying on the ground in the ice and snow crying and rolling: "It hurts, Bao is dying." ”

Zhang Ye hurriedly introduced a breath of forgetfulness for Ah Bao to inhale, and after that, miraculously, the burned feathers and flesh began to recover as new.

Now Ah Bao stopped crying, stretched out his head and rubbed Zhang Ye with an intimate look: "Thank you, senior brother, report to senior brother, I scared Ah Bao to death." ”

Zhang Ye said: "What did you see, why are you so flustered?"
