People really don't want to work overtime in Daxia

Chapter 272 Two Lost People
The guard stepped forward and raised the big knife in his hand. This Thousand Forging Knife is different. It reflects cold light under the sunlight, and there are some patterns on it. This is the imprint of the Thousand Forging Knife.

I slashed down hard, only to hear a "bang", the tail of the sharp arrow was cut off, and King Zhendong's hair crown fell to the ground and fell apart.

At this time, the guards and everyone gasped when they looked at the weapon in his hand. There was a gap in the Thousand Refinement Knife, but fortunately, the sharp arrow had already been chopped off.

King Zhendong's complexion gradually improved at this moment, and everyone was relieved, it can be regarded as getting down!
Everyone was relieved, only Yan Yun's eyes were blank, and his opportunity "popped", and it was gone!

"Where is Li Jing?" King Zhendong now remembered the city gate guard.

The guard on the side responded, "If you go back to the prince, Li Jing will be sent to the hospital after receiving two hundred slaps!"

"It was already passed out when it was sent!"

The surrounding Dongdu soldiers and lieutenant generals were stunned, why did their master get slapped two hundred times when he went to report the letter?

The king of Zhendong also saw the eyes of the people around him, thought for a moment and said, "Li Jing has a meritorious official, and he will be rewarded with 500 taels of silver!"

"It's the prince!" The guard on the side responded.

At this time, the king of Zhendong just caught Yan Yun and said directly, "The army is overwhelming, and the gate of the city cannot be without generals for a day!"

Hearing King Zhendong's words, the lieutenant general's eyes lit up instantly. According to the rules of their city gate guards, the chief general is not on top of their lieutenant generals. Li Jing also took the position of gate guard at the beginning.

Could it be that he was a blessing in disguise this time, even though the army is overwhelming and soldiers are approaching the city, but he is going to be promoted?

"Yan Yun is transferred to be the guard of the city gate, and he can take office! Let's go!" After finishing speaking, King Zhendong led his people and left.

King Zhendong left, and the two people on the city wall stayed where they were.These two people were none other than Yan Yun and the lieutenant general. One's dream of being promoted disappeared, and the other was sent directly to defend the city.

Neither of them could accept this change, so they were both stunned.

When the sun was about to set, Yu Qing directly summoned his subordinates to come to the camp outside the north gate to discuss matters.

Everyone in the Chinese military tent gathered together, all waiting for Yu Qing to speak.

"Today, Dongdu is surrounded like an iron barrel, but we can't relax our vigilance!" Yu Qing said lightly, "I will arrange light cavalry and scouts to patrol around."

"If someone comes out from the secret passage of the Eastern Capital or comes from the west to the Eastern Capital, all the people will be intercepted and killed!" Yu Qing looked around and said, "The news must not be leaked, otherwise we will fall short!"

"Tomorrow morning, I will bury the pot and make a meal, and after breakfast - attack the city!" Yu Qing slammed his fist on the table.

"Yes, Lord Hou!" Everyone answered in unison, their tone full of excitement, after all, the place we will fight tomorrow is not ordinary!That's Dongdu!
All night was safe and sound, everyone in Yu Qing's big camp slept soundly, and they must recharge their spirits tonight when they attack the city tomorrow.

But the "Eastern Capital" was in chaos, and the news of the siege by the loyal army leaked to the entire "Eastern Capital".

For a moment, no matter who it was, everyone panicked. If the "Eastern Capital" was destroyed, it would be no joke.

The inside of Zhendong Prince's Mansion is also brightly lit. All the guards are wearing armor with their backs bowed at their waists and their crotch knives, and their right hands are tightly holding the handles of the knives. They look at everyone nervously, if there is anything wrong.
Inside the meeting hall of the East King's Mansion in Dongdu Town, there were crowds of people standing there. As long as they were in Dongdu, all civil servants and generals were here. Their only purpose was to study how to repel Yu Qing!

"How's the messenger soldier sent?" King Zhendong asked as he looked at the crowd.

"If you go back to the prince, all the people sent out will be stopped by Yu Qing's men! They surrounded Dongdu like an iron barrel!" said one of the staff.

"Should we send a few more people, maybe one or two rushed out?" one of the staff asked.

"I want to peach! Impossible, there are tens of thousands of troops on each side of Yuqing's periphery, and it doesn't matter how many people you send."

"Many people don't necessarily matter. As long as one person rushes out, we still have hope!"

"That's boiling frogs in warm water to consume our own soldiers!"

For a while, the room was in chaos, and the matter of sending people out for help was completely divided into two factions and began to argue.

To say they don't want to send someone out?want to!Everyone has a glimmer of hope, but if one group of candidates is selected, the other group cannot be selected.

The reason for this is also very simple, that is, the two words "faction"!
King Zhendong raised his hand to press his frowning brows, and at this moment he was in a state of confusion!He has always known the factional disputes in the Eastern Capital. This is normal. Back then, there were many factions in the Great Xia Dynasty Hall, including the four princes, six ministers, and those generals and members of the royal family.

At that time, there was a lot of chaos. Generally, people with no background were either exiled or beheaded within half a month. Even if they joined one of the camps, they would be treated as cannon fodder. There was no way around that!
At this moment, the room was as noisy as a market, and King Zhendong slapped the table directly!

"Shut up all of them!" King Zhendong's roar was a little low, and his voice was already hoarse.

As soon as the words came out, everyone dared not speak. The quarrel just now was just a normal exchange of blows between factions, but none of them wanted to answer when the prince got angry.

"It's so noisy and noisy!" King Zhendong looked at them with wide eyes and said, "If you have the strength, you go out and fight Yu Qing's subordinates! Ah!"

Everyone bowed their heads in unison. It would be easy for them to be greedy for money or to punish anyone, but it is not for them to go to battle and fight for their lives.

"Are there any generals in the Eastern Capital who can fight?" Zhendong Wang looked around and asked, but no one responded.

Zhendong Wang was so angry that he picked up the teacup on the table and threw it on the ground, only to hear a "bang" and the teacup burst into pieces.

The majestic "Eastern Capital" is a place similar to the imperial capital, and it is unexpectedly surrounded by soldiers without a single general who can go out of the city to fight.ridiculous!sad!shameful!
Zhendong King is also very regretful at this moment, and all the elite soldiers and generals under him have been sent to the west to fight Nangongtian!It's also because I underestimated Yu Qing and didn't take it seriously, and now I really regret it!
"There is only one word for the current plan - procrastination!" King Zhendong looked at the crowd and said, "This king intends to make peace with Yu Qing!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, making peace with each other!
