The thunderstorm during the day frightened a group of people.
The capital is far away, so I don't know about it.But the thunder rang in the sky above Jizhou, and the hearts of all creatures tensed up. The next moment they looked up at the sky, their hearts were still trembling.
Yuan Jinyu frowned, covered his heart and said, "It's not like an ordinary thunder."
Zhou Ao also frowned. He was shocked just now, which is rare.
Yuan Jinyu took a deep breath: "Is it a warning from heaven?"
But isn't that too much warning?In this month alone, various phenomena have occurred frequently, if it is connected with Yuan Yingrui, it is of course possible.
But I always feel that there are too many.
While the two were still thinking about it, a person walked quickly outside, and after saluting, he presented the latest secret report received to Yuan Jinyu respectfully.
The information and small notes brought by the domesticated pigeons were delivered to him safely through several routes.
"Uncle!" Yuan Jinyu's pupils kept trembling, "Zhao Pan is gone! The elder of the three dynasties! The important minister of the country! How dare he, Yuan Yingrui!"
The neutral faction is only on the same team as the emperor. Although they no longer have real power, they are respected by scholars all over the world.
Zhou Ao couldn't believe it either. He snatched the note from Yuan Jinyu's hand and looked at it carefully.
"Could it be that Yuan Yingrui is crazy?" Zhou Ao's eyes widened.
Yuan Jinyu looked up at the sky at this moment, his eyes penetrated the roof beams and saw the thunder.
"Perhaps," he said, "this thunder is the anger of the unjustly killed."
·
Any vision can be interpreted as the gods and ghosts of Tianxian, even Ji Yue really thought it was the sky howling.
Li Bai was silent for a while, and decided to give up explaining.
It's good to broaden everyone's thinking.
·
After this incident, it was as if the fast-forward button had been pressed for everything, and the movements of Yuan Jinyu and Yuan Yingrui accelerated in unison.
One side never refuses the forces that come to take effect, secretly hoarding food, grass and weapons, and decides to go north to declare war on Yuan Yingrui in the name of "Qing Emperor's side".
One side cleared out the opponents in the capital and took the troops outside the city under its command. The border troops were too far away, so they found nearby troops to rush to the capital.
Everything is showing that a war is about to break out.
·
Medicine is backward, and the popularity of knowledge is not high. Each family relies on family learning, and only a few people will make their works public.
The preciousness of Li Bai's books can be seen.
Yuan Jinyu wanted to create a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, to occupy righteousness.When the world is returning to its heart, the journey northward is expected to be smooth.
With the help of the theory of gods and ghosts, he advertised that he was the son of destiny.
The capital again blamed Yuan Jinyu, saying that he deliberately conspired against him, disrespected the late emperor's will, was discovered by Yuan Yingrui after killing the king, and fled out of the city in a hurry.
For a time, rumors abounded.
·
Li Bai was eating melon seeds today, and beside him was a group of bearded people discussing in low voices, many of them had gray hair.
After hearing about Yuan Jinyu's adventure—hundreds of medical books handed down from the fairy world—under this person's various propaganda, many people came to Jizhou to find out.
In fact, everyone felt that it was a fraud. A few people came first, and later confirmed that it was true, so they came here in droves.
"Sir, may I ask this medicinal material..." A person came forward to ask Li Bai for advice.
Li Bai glanced sideways, and replied him directly without thinking.
Then the person admired and praised, continued to sigh, and then took a step back into the crowd.
There are seats, tea and pastries over there. If you are tired, you can find a place to rest. The arrangement here is very appropriate.
This has been the case for the last few days.
This place was newly arranged by Yuan Jinyu, the place where Li Bai and Ji Yue lived was too small to fit.
When it comes to accommodation, it was originally intended to change places for the two of them, but Li Bai didn't care about it, and Ji Yue felt that it was good to live now, so there was no need to change places.
So it was still in that small courtyard, but Ji Yue moved to a remote corner of the school ground for his daily practice, where he could perform well, and he could find someone to practice in pairs at random.
——It can be regarded as actual combat experience, so Ji Yue was found to be quite good at boxing and kicking.Many people only regarded him as a literati, but unexpectedly, he was actually a real all-rounder in both civil and military affairs.
·
Declaring war, it is natural to declare the world.
Boosting morale is essential before the army sets off.
Yuan Jinyu stood on the high platform, under which there were countless human heads, all in a dense mass of darkness.
The people behind couldn't hear what was being said on the stage, but because of good military discipline, everyone stood silently, preparing to perform a "I can hear it, this is really exciting" according to past experience look.
"I'm too tired, I can't hear it, I have to keep up with the reaction, and I have to pay attention to the performance of the people in front of me."
"If you are too slow, you have to be told, what can you see when you look at the back of your head?"
Because of the scene, there are many soldiers arranged this time.The general is fine, he was born in the army, and for more than ten years he has always spoken like a yell.
But Yuan Jinyu is different. As a member of the royal family, he pays attention to etiquette and posture.
But this time, apart from Zhou Ao, he also had a lot to say.
So I arranged for a person to stand on the side, and when Yuan Jinyu spoke, each person said a sentence and repeated it.
Other than looking a little awkward, nothing else.
——After all, the emperor also has eunuchs to pass on messages, so that's fine.
Li Bai, who shrank in the room and didn't want to join in the fun, was pestered to study again.His attitude towards these people is quite good, he doesn't care about it, and answers their questions with a kind look of caring for his disciples and grandchildren.
It is the person who got the detailed explanation of the answer, who is a little inexplicable under such eyes. ——I always feel that I have been taken advantage of, but there is nothing wrong with it.
This side sends away a doubtful person, and over there, Yuan Jinyu is about to open his mouth to speak.
·
When Ji Yue arrived at the scene, he stood on one side, and his roommates were all on duty here.
In the open field, without the bonus of echo, even if Yuan Jinyu spoke with the greatest strength, it sounded very weak.
Ji Yue's hearing is very good, and he can hear what he said clearly.
Colleagues may not be sure, anyway, they are here to put on a show, so if you can't hear it, you can't hear it.
Ji Yue didn't put all his thoughts on Yuan Jinyu's speech, he clasped his hands and put them in front of him.
There are too many people gathered, and what they have to face is such a serious matter. No one can predict what the future will be like.Maybe returning home, maybe dying on the battlefield, maybe even the person on the high platform couldn't save his life.
This is not a war to be won.
This was a war provoked for the selfish desires of Yuan Jinyu and Yuan Yingrui.But many people, many people who hold a lot of wealth and power, control all this.
The soldiers who have killed and fought stand here with endless killing intent.Even the hot and dry weather is full of coldness of swords and soldiers.
Ji Yue's overly sensitive senses were affected.What flashes in his mind now is the happy scene after killing the enemy with his hands.
While he was fantasizing, suddenly, Yuan Jinyu's voice seemed to be amplified. According to the two sentences just now, the volume was more than doubled.
There was even a little more excitement, excitement, but still calmness, which was in line with Yuan Jinyu's current mood.
Ji Yue, who had lowered his eyes, looked up. He noticed that his colleagues around him seemed to have noticed this change, and a group of people looked hesitantly at Yuan Jinyu on the high platform in front of him.
Some people look left and right, trying to get the information they want from the other person with their eyes.
They are not the only ones who feel this way.
Most of the dark soldiers were just for show, but now they found that for some reason, the voice of the sixth prince was ringing in his ears.
It's not very big, like twenty or thirty people surrounding one person, you can hear clearly.
But they are in the back row, and many people looked around, only to find that the eyes of the people next to them were also confused.
But with a slight glance toward the stage, the other person knows what he is asking and nods.
All of a sudden, the heads below looked a little messy.
Yuan Jinyu raised his eyebrows slightly, not knowing what happened next.
But just said a few words, originally he said a part of the herald and then yelled a part, it was all arranged properly.
This trace of panic was quickly suppressed by the fire chiefs in charge. They are very powerful here, and after staring, the people next to them will quiet down.
A person quickly ran over to the platform from the side path, and went up to the high platform in three or two steps, and said a few words in Zhou Ao's ear.
Ji Yue had sharp eyes and ears, he saw a moment of surprise on Zhou Ao's face, and a moment later he was pleasantly surprised.
Then the man quickly walked towards Yuan Jinyu and whispered a few words in his ear.
Ji Yue heard the soldiers not far away whispering, "How can I hear it so clearly", "I can hear it, what about you", "What's going on"...
The words were chaotic, and Ji Yue extracted the information from the chaotic voices.
After a moment of astonishment, he immediately thought: Li Bai made the move.
·
Freshly fried beans, crunchy and delicious, with a bit of heat.
Above it is precious salt, fine salt, finer than the sand grains on the coast, purer than the salt extracted from the best mines, and free of bitterness.
A team of cooks covering all major dishes was formed to serve Li Bai exclusively.The food on his side is exceptionally good, and there are always snacks.
When Yuan Jinyu came to the stage, Li Bai had just received the stack of beans that was presented respectfully.
He tasted it, and it was not bad.
Yuan Jinyu said a word, which could still be heard in the first five rows, but it became more and more silent in the back.
Li Bai lightly flicked his fingers, and shot a streak of spiritual power as thin as a cow's hair in that direction.
Immediately, Yuan Jinyu's voice reached everyone's ears.Regardless of the distance, it is as if they are one foot in front of them, face to face, and listen to his discussion.
Ji Yue turned his head slightly, and looked in the direction of Li Bai.
He shook his head slightly and smiled.
On the stage, Yuan Jinyu was surprised for a moment when he heard the news. His brows were frivolous when he was surprised, but he recovered his composure after a while.
Seeing that he was aware of this, Zhou Ao held his sword with his left hand, nodded slightly, took a step back and stood back to his original position.
Naturally, the person who had been arranged didn't need to use it any more. He bent down to salute, and retreated to the back to serve as the background board.
Yuan Jinyu straightened his back more than before, coughed lightly, and continued to recite the manuscript.
This brief silence gave everyone in the audience time to restore order. They were still hesitant in their hearts, not sure whether the experience just now was true or not.
So, with a little curiosity and suspicion, they widened their eyes and listened intently, wanting to know whether the voice of the sixth prince would be the same as before.
Although Yuan Jinyu didn't understand why, it was obvious that he had a vested interest.
Perhaps, it is really God's blessing.
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and there was more confidence and determination in his voice.
I will win!I will definitely pull Yuan Yingrui down!
The throne is mine!
Not knowing how long this miraculous effect will last, Yuan Jinyu speeded up his speed a little with a little worry, intending to finish speaking as soon as possible on top of the previous arrangement.
At the same time, he was praying in his heart, he must continue, and don't suddenly disappear again.
Fortunately, Li Bai was still very reliable, until Yuan Jinyu finished the long speech, the reinforcement of expanding his voice was there.
Ji Yue sensed Yuan Jinyu's thoughts from the pause, although his face was expressionless, he was smiling in his heart.
This can be regarded as a little secret.
·
After the end, Ji Yue greeted his colleagues with a smile, passed through the people who were talking, and walked to the residence.
Along the way, many people expressed their views on the strange incident just now.
"Could it be a manifestation from the heavens?"
"You heard that too, right? I thought I was in the front position."
"I'm at the end. I thought it was going to be silent until the end, and at most I could hear a drumbeat."
"It's so miraculous, I finally believe now that the Sixth Prince is the destiny."
The literati are still scruples about their own manners, and dare not speak out.
The soldiers didn't care so much. After the leader led them out, they heard the order to "disband", and they were in a mess for a while.
"Gouzi, did you hear that just now?"
"Erniu, why do I feel like I heard a fairy talking in my ear?"
"Warrior Wuchang Wuchang, did you hear that too? Too...how did you say that? Oh, it's amazing anyway. Is this sixth prince human? Why are you beating me!"
"What else can the sixth prince be if he is not a human being? You have to use your brains when you speak!"
"Immortals! The immortals have come down to earth!"
"Hey Zhuzi, it's rare for you to say something reliable!"
A group of people were frolicking and noisy, and they quarreled in the sky after a while.
There are discussions on this matter everywhere, and Ji Yue has heard many versions along the way.But most of them believed that the sixth prince would definitely win.
This also gave them a lot of confidence.
·
Yuan Yingrui heard about what happened in the Jizhou Army, and the rumors were so magical that she wished to say that Yuan Jinyu was a god descending from heaven.
"Hey——" Yuan Yingrui said coldly, "God descended to earth? Man of destiny? Even if there is, it's not Yuan Jinyu."
The eunuch stood on one side with his head bowed, silent.
Yuan Yingrui didn't take this rumor to heart.
In his opinion, it was rumored from within the Jizhou Army, and it must be Yuan Jinyu's fault.His territory, his people, what can't be said?
"If Yuan Jinyu is really a man of destiny, how can I sit on this dragon chair?" Yuan Yingrui rubbed the armrest, this touch, this feeling of looking down on the world, no wonder everyone wants to be the emperor.
He glanced sideways and asked the people beside him, "Are you all ready?"
The eunuch respectfully said: "Report to Your Majesty, everything has been properly arranged."
Yuan Yingrui: "Yes."
Since you are coming to seek death, how can I refuse?
·
Ji Yue is going to go out with the army, he is not just an aide, because of his outstanding martial arts, he was promoted by Zhou Ao as a vanguard officer.
Temporary military attache, commander of the former enemy, responsible for reconnaissance of terrain, enemy situation, etc., is the general who takes the lead in sending troops.Generally, the person in the original position holds the concurrent post, and will step down after the war.
Ji Yue originally did not have such qualifications, but because of the various useful suggestions he put forward during the preparations for the battle, as well as his excellent performance in the school field, he performed outstandingly among his subordinates.
Zhou Ao took the opportunity to ask Ji Yue to take a team to the next hill to suppress the bandits, and the results were remarkable, with no injuries in the team.
This gave him such a position.
Ji Yue: "I want to lead the team at the front, are you with me?"
He is packing things, actually not many, he has only lived here for more than a month, the only thing he needs to pay attention to is the sword Li Bai gave him.
Li Bai has nothing to pack, even the things he uses are directly taken out of the storage ring.
"It's fine, anyway, I have to make sure you are alive." He said indifferently.
Ji Yue: "...Thank you."
Pioneers are dangerous, but opportunities also exist.If he can survive to the end, Ji Yue's future will be limitless.
·
But Yuan Jinyu hesitated about Li Bai's request to follow him to the battlefield.
After many doctors knew about it, they protested very much.
"Mr. Li, you have gone to the battlefield, what if something happens?"
"Sir, I have another question here... I will have more questions to ask in the future!"
"Sir, even if you are behind, you can follow the wounded battalion! But the front team investigates...it's too dangerous!"
"Sir, if you make any mistakes, it will be a loss to the whole world!"
For this kind of persuasion and obstruction, Li Bai has only one answer: "Oh."
Everyone: "..."
Seeing that he couldn't be persuaded, a group of people with gray beards gathered and approached Yuan Jinyu.
It was that rhetoric again, which specifically focused on Li Bai's importance to doctors all over the world.
Yuan Jinyu also knew it, and in front of him were some respectable people who he had never seen in the past. Just these two people who were known as "miracle doctors" and "the golden needle leaves no dead" already made him feel pressured.
He knew that because of Li Bai, doctors from all over the world went to Jizhou City.
But what he didn't know was that the miracle doctor who had been rejected by his father and emperor had also come here.
Has been busy with attacking the capital, Yuan Jinyu heard that one of his subordinates reported that "so and so came here to find Mr. Li Bai", but in the later stage, he just said "I know", and didn't care about it after he finished speaking.
So many doctors are ignored.
Now seeing a group of people swarming in, Yuan Jinyu breathed and kicked, feeling a little unbelievable.
This is all for Li Bai?Mr. Yueqing, Mr. Huiwen...even the hermits are here?
A hermit who does not live in the mountains is still a hermit?Such a sentence suddenly flashed in Yuan Jinyu's mind.
Immediately after being waved away by himself.This idea is too disrespectful.
They stared at Yuan Jinyu with scorching eyes, putting a lot of pressure on him.
However, it is said that Li Bai's skills are very good, and he is also Ji Yue's teacher. Although he doesn't know how deep he is, there is no doubt that he is definitely better than Ji Yue.
Can such a person be let go?
Let him stay behind for the elderly?I am very short of people now!
Yuan Jinyu was unwilling to do this.In addition, Li Bai will also calculate the trajectory of luck based on the weather, maybe he can choose the smoothest path for them when exploring the way ahead?
Reminiscent of the scene when he first met Li Bai, Yuan Jinyu, who was still a little hesitant, suddenly became firm.
But he can't tell everyone like this, he still has to find a fair excuse.
"Gentlemen, it's not that I don't want Mr. Li in the back," Yuan Jinyu raised his voice, "Although he is young, I respect him very much. To be honest, I have never been able to change his mind about Mr. Li and will."
As soon as these words came out, the group of people in front of them fell silent.
Yes, they have also felt it during the time they spent together in the past few days.This kid is really a wayward person.
Looking at each other, they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
But really unwilling, one of them said again: "Then...you can't put it in the vanguard officer's team, at least you can escort the food and grass behind!"
Yuan Jinyu smiled bitterly: "He and Ji Yue have a really good relationship. They met earlier, and Ji Yue was kind to him. Tell me, can I persuade you?"
"Then you just say that Ji Yue..." But as soon as the words came out, he was interrupted by a person beside him.
"How can you intervene in the arrangement of the superior?" The old man beside him looked worried, "We are talking about Li Bai's affairs, don't talk too much!"
How can outsiders like them interfere with this kind of arrangement?
A group of people were arguing and arguing, but in the end there was no result.
You can only ask Yuan Jinyu to guarantee that you must protect Li Bai's safety and not let anything happen to him.Only then did they leave together.
·
Li Bai was riding on the horse, still in that lazy posture, not pulling the rein seriously in his hand.
Ji Yue saw that the people next to him had tangled faces, and following their eyes, the focus was on Li Bai.
He chuckled and asked, "Aren't you really going to put on your armor?"
Li Bai was dressed in white and changed into a horse riding outfit, but it didn't get in the way.
But he looked very much like a rich man who went for a picnic and a walk in the countryside...Compared with the solemn and solemn atmosphere of the army, he was out of place.
Many people know Li Bai, but more soldiers don't know him.
The base of ordinary soldiers at the bottom is large, and they don't see many people.To them, Li Bai is just a legendary existence.
——The kind where you meet a real person face to face, and you don’t know who the other person is.
Seeing a stranger at this moment, riding in the general's position while riding in formation, and the people around him are quite respectful, this scene is very curious.
A group of people whispered and whispered, trying to guess who Li Bai really was.
He also complained that he was wearing unlined clothes without even any armor, like a wayward young master from some family, maybe he just came to feel the atmosphere, and he would be so tired that he would run back and sit in the carriage after a while.
Li Bai could hear it, so he didn't bother to refute.
"Whatever, it's over early." He replied to Ji Yue.
The other generals originally wanted to chat, but seeing him so indifferent, their minds have eased a lot this time.
·
The confrontation between Yuan Jinyu and Yuan Yingrui is actually very difficult to stand in line with.
I don't know who will win, and I don't know whether I should help a certain person.
For example, if a city that has not yet been controlled by the capital faces the interstate army that is coming here, will it resist with all its strength?Or, to make way?
The defenders of Pengcheng are very upset.
The capital only gave one decree, asking them to drag Yuan Jinyu's army here for as long as possible.
But there were no reinforcements, food, or arrangements, and only two warlords were given.
Prefect: "..."
The magistrate sighed: "Pengcheng is just the first city next to Jizhou. Tell me, I just want to retire here. Why is it so miserable?"
He offered wine and meat to the two warlords who came here, and let them live happily.
In a blink of an eye, he dragged his own people to complain in a small room.
There are soldiers here, but not many.Pengcheng is not a military town. In the past, it was next to Jizhou, because there were Jizhou troops stationed there, so it was very safe. There were far fewer bandits and bandits in the surrounding area than in other places.
Who would have thought such a day would come?
The magistrate: "They don't even give reinforcements. In my opinion, the higher-ups don't take Pengcheng seriously at all. That's right, how can a small town with [-] to [-] households compare to a big city with [-] households like Fengling?"
He didn't want to find someone to talk about countermeasures, he was just very dissatisfied with it.
The prefect: "Let me procrastinate. There are only 5 people in the Jizhou army. I heard that there are still many people who have gone to Jizhou. It is said to be an army of 50. Ah, bah, I see that it is only 15 at most. How much food and weapons can you have in two months?"
The magistrate picked up the tea on one side and moistened his throat: "Hey, let me tell you, I've been discussing this with you for so long, and it seems that the higher-ups have abandoned us. Should I just open the door and surrender, or do I open the door and surrender after making a show?" ah?"
The people below: "..."
The magistrate: "I see it, they don't want to keep Pengcheng at all. This place is easy to attack and difficult to defend, so there is no advantage. It is also a waste to recruit troops. Normal people's brains would not do this."
The person below: "..."
Prefect: "But what I do now is wrong, do you think so?"
The people below nodded frantically: "Yeah!"
The magistrate sighed: "Hey, tell me, why am I so unlucky? If I was in the south of Jizhou, wouldn't there be nothing wrong with me? We don't want to be rich and prosperous, I just want to be in Pengcheng Stay in this small place for a lifetime, and live in peace."
The magistrate thought about it and wanted to cry.
Why is his life so miserable!
Pengcheng is next to Jizhou, if it is not captured, there will be worries about food and reinforcements, etc.; To maintain law and order in the city.
Someone suggested: "Why don't you just open the city gate to show your sincerity?"
The magistrate glared: "Do you think I haven't thought about it?! If the sixth prince fails, then I will surrender No.1! I will be liquidated by the second prince!"
The two forces in the capital are stalemate. The emperor Yuan Yingrui still has no idea whether he can do anything or not.
If Yuan Jinyu fails, maybe it counts.
But if he wins, it's Shindi.
Thinking of this, the magistrate felt hairy.Then if I stop him, even if it's a small block in a symbolic sense, won't I have to settle the matter with me when the sixth prince ascends the throne?
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
The person below: "..." bowed his head silently.
·
"Pengcheng is a dispensable place. Yuan Yingrui's side should ignore it. Their main force will definitely be deployed in Fengling." Ji Yue said to Li Bai holding the map.
Li Bai glanced at it, but couldn't understand.
"Oh." He responded lightly.
Not planning to receive any reply, Ji Yue looked up: "I guess, the prefect of Pengcheng must be very sad."
It's really sad, sad like ants on a hot pot.
Ji Yue pondered for a while: "Try to see if you can let the other party open the door directly. Although it is a small town, the other party surrenders without saying a word, and it is also a name."
Li Bai: "Are you going?"
Ji Yue nodded: "The army is behind, and I will lead a small group of people. If someone comes later, I can also command."
Although his vanguard officer is a position that looks easy to die, it is actually very advantageous.
On the one hand, Ji Yue directly obeys Zhou Ao's orders; on the other hand, he has the authority to lead a team of one hundred people, and he can also command soldiers from the army later.
Temporary official positions, on the contrary, have more power.
Li Bai thought for a while and asked him: "If you take down this city before the army arrives, would it be beneficial?"
Ji Yue was stunned, he had an extra idea in his mind, but he didn't know if this idea was too crazy.
Under Li Bai's calm gaze, Ji Yue swallowed subconsciously.
He asked, "You mean..." Did I think so?
Li Bai tilted his head: "Huh?"
Ji Yue stabilized his mind and looked at the people around him.Now following him is a team of 20 people, scattered in all directions to collect information here.
At this moment, only Li Bai and himself are here.
Ji Yue took a deep breath and analyzed with Li Bai: "Pengcheng's terrain is flat, there is no shelter, and the city walls are dilapidated. The garrison is only one or two hundred people to maintain the city's law and order. Even if it is temporarily recruited, it will not exceed 200 people."
He looked at Li Bai: "Yuan Yingrui didn't send anyone here, and he didn't intend to use this place as a battlefield. It's too easy to be captured here, so it's not a battleground for military strategists."
Li Bai: "Oh." He was very patient and didn't interrupt Ji Yue.
Ji Yue: "It's difficult to defend the city, so we were given up. But no matter what, for us, it's the first hurdle we face after leaving Interstate. Winning will boost morale."
Li Bai: "Oh."
Ji Yue: "If I can lead the team to win, or let the opponent surrender directly, this is the best result."
He solemnly said: "Li Bai, this is of great benefit to me."
Li Bai looked at each other, and he said: "The prefect is worried, he wants to surrender, but he is afraid that Yuan Jinyu will fail, and Yuan Yingrui will liquidate him afterwards."
This person has been worrying for almost a month.Ever since Jizhou heard that he was going to attack the capital, he had calculated for a long time, no matter what, he couldn't avoid Pengcheng.
If you fight and you can't win, and you can't lose if you lose, no matter what, it's not a good end for yourself.
Unless he is the sixth prince himself, this is the only choice that can make him stable for the rest of his life.
But the magistrate was also afraid that if the sixth prince failed miserably, he would be classified as Yuan Jinyu's henchman.Don't you see that there is blood in the capital, it's all people from the Sixth Prince's faction who didn't escape.
Li Bai listened attentively, and then he touched the magistrate.
When Ji Yue heard this, his eyes lit up.
His own ability is not strong enough to travel such a long distance, ignore other noises, and find the sound he wants.
"If the prefect thinks so, then I have a solution." Ji Yue said.
He was full of confidence, Li Bai let out a "hmm" and didn't plan to take care of it anymore.
"Wait!" Li Bai stopped Ji Yue from turning around.Ji Yue looked at him with a question mark in his head: "What's wrong?"
Li Bai listened carefully for a while, the corners of his mouth curled up, and with a smile in his eyes, he said to Ji Yue: "This matter is simpler than you think."
Ji Yue: "???" What did you hear again?
·
In the early morning, the sky just dawned.
Today's weather is not very good, the sky over Pengcheng is gloomy, but there is no cold wind, and it is still the slightly dry temperature in the morning.
The magistrate woke up early, he hadn't had a good night's sleep recently, and could wake up several times a night.
Madam was so annoyed by his sudden surprise that she often slept with him.
Wearing unlined clothes, Zhifu waved his fan and sighed in the corridor.
"Hey - look at this dark sky, it looks like a mountain rain is about to come and the building is full of wind! I can see my miserable scene a few days later." As he spoke, he couldn't help crying ,
Pulling up his sleeves and wiping his eyes, the prefect began a new day of talking to himself: "I just said that I can't be an official in such a place where the spirit of killing is too heavy. Why does the Interstate Army have a sense of security in the back? Look Look, banditry is less, but together it is a military disaster!"
"After praying to the Bodhisattva for so long, I still haven't given any instructions. Alas, my life is miserable! My wife is so pious. I just asked this time, why didn't she even give me any instructions?"
"Should I surrender or should I surrender?"
He didn't stop talking for a long time, and the servants who got up early not far away were busy with their own affairs quietly.
"My lord—my lord—!" A man ran over in a hurry, and his voice was particularly piercing in this silent morning.
The magistrate was about to vent his emotions when his feelings were strong, but was abruptly interrupted by this shout.
he:"……"
Forget it, stop crying, and no one will listen.
The magistrate glared at the figure running in the courtyard unhappily, and when the other party came to him, he scolded him in a bad tone: "Howling and howling and mourning! Am I dead?! Is Pengcheng finished? You are so early in the morning!" , are asleep, what are you doing!"
He was so angry that he flicked his sleeves with a crackling sound.
The person who came here was a pawn, who belonged to the door of the military room. This room was in charge of military affairs, people's strength, military examination, public security and other matters.
"My lord, the Interstate Army is coming!" He stamped his feet on the ground anxiously.
The prefect who just picked up the teacup and drank water: "Pfft——"
The pawn jumped and immediately dodged.
The prefect put the cup on the table in a panic, not even caring about pouring it over.
He stood up directly, bowed his waist and approached the pawn, his eyes widened and he said in despair, "What did you say?"
The pawn was also desperate: "My lord, there are traces left by the army outside the city! Those who went out to investigate found that not far from the city, there are traces of them burning fire and cooking!"
The magistrate staggered: "It's over, it's over, I'm thinking that I can live for a few more days, but I didn't expect that today is my last..."
It never occurred to me that in a place with strict military discipline, how could such marching marks be left behind?
The pawn quickly supported him: "My lord! You have to cheer up!"
The magistrate waved his hands: "Cheer up, cheer up! Don't give me the soldiers! I won't give it to me! I won't give me anything! The two warlords came and asked me to show respect! What a broken emperor! They just don't care about the life and death of the people below!"
Unlike the feeling of the previous days, at this moment he really felt that death was on the verge.
At this moment, he can't care about any monarchs and ministers anymore, he just wants to scold him well.
The pawn was still thinking, and went forward to cover his mouth: "My lord! Don't do this! We still have to live! The sixth prince is here, and he can't slaughter the city!"
The magistrate whose mouth was covered: "Ah Luo spit—let go of me!"
He finally struggled away and looked at the warden with disgust: "People are going to die! I can't complain yet!"
The pawn smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, of course you can, but... let's think about what to do now?"
The magistrate cursed: "How do I know what to do! I still want someone to tell me! What should I do!"
One sentence is divided into two paragraphs, which is extraordinarily hard.
·
Huddled on the city wall, the top of the wall is really not high.It was not a place where there was a war, let alone such a thing would happen, and even the repairs were done a few days ago.
The magistrate trembled: "Is anyone here? How long has it been, and there is still no movement?"
The city gate has been closed, and no one is allowed to enter or exit these two days.
The other soldiers were speechless when they saw the virtue of their immediate superior.But he didn't hide in the government office, instead he came to the front and made these people feel warm again.
A very tangled feeling of uselessness.
Jing Cheng, who was in charge of the military room, said from the side: "My lord, I just found traces, so I don't necessarily want to attack Pengcheng."
The prefect insisted: "Of course I know! I also read a few military books in my early years!"
He looked away worriedly
The capital is far away, so I don't know about it.But the thunder rang in the sky above Jizhou, and the hearts of all creatures tensed up. The next moment they looked up at the sky, their hearts were still trembling.
Yuan Jinyu frowned, covered his heart and said, "It's not like an ordinary thunder."
Zhou Ao also frowned. He was shocked just now, which is rare.
Yuan Jinyu took a deep breath: "Is it a warning from heaven?"
But isn't that too much warning?In this month alone, various phenomena have occurred frequently, if it is connected with Yuan Yingrui, it is of course possible.
But I always feel that there are too many.
While the two were still thinking about it, a person walked quickly outside, and after saluting, he presented the latest secret report received to Yuan Jinyu respectfully.
The information and small notes brought by the domesticated pigeons were delivered to him safely through several routes.
"Uncle!" Yuan Jinyu's pupils kept trembling, "Zhao Pan is gone! The elder of the three dynasties! The important minister of the country! How dare he, Yuan Yingrui!"
The neutral faction is only on the same team as the emperor. Although they no longer have real power, they are respected by scholars all over the world.
Zhou Ao couldn't believe it either. He snatched the note from Yuan Jinyu's hand and looked at it carefully.
"Could it be that Yuan Yingrui is crazy?" Zhou Ao's eyes widened.
Yuan Jinyu looked up at the sky at this moment, his eyes penetrated the roof beams and saw the thunder.
"Perhaps," he said, "this thunder is the anger of the unjustly killed."
·
Any vision can be interpreted as the gods and ghosts of Tianxian, even Ji Yue really thought it was the sky howling.
Li Bai was silent for a while, and decided to give up explaining.
It's good to broaden everyone's thinking.
·
After this incident, it was as if the fast-forward button had been pressed for everything, and the movements of Yuan Jinyu and Yuan Yingrui accelerated in unison.
One side never refuses the forces that come to take effect, secretly hoarding food, grass and weapons, and decides to go north to declare war on Yuan Yingrui in the name of "Qing Emperor's side".
One side cleared out the opponents in the capital and took the troops outside the city under its command. The border troops were too far away, so they found nearby troops to rush to the capital.
Everything is showing that a war is about to break out.
·
Medicine is backward, and the popularity of knowledge is not high. Each family relies on family learning, and only a few people will make their works public.
The preciousness of Li Bai's books can be seen.
Yuan Jinyu wanted to create a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, to occupy righteousness.When the world is returning to its heart, the journey northward is expected to be smooth.
With the help of the theory of gods and ghosts, he advertised that he was the son of destiny.
The capital again blamed Yuan Jinyu, saying that he deliberately conspired against him, disrespected the late emperor's will, was discovered by Yuan Yingrui after killing the king, and fled out of the city in a hurry.
For a time, rumors abounded.
·
Li Bai was eating melon seeds today, and beside him was a group of bearded people discussing in low voices, many of them had gray hair.
After hearing about Yuan Jinyu's adventure—hundreds of medical books handed down from the fairy world—under this person's various propaganda, many people came to Jizhou to find out.
In fact, everyone felt that it was a fraud. A few people came first, and later confirmed that it was true, so they came here in droves.
"Sir, may I ask this medicinal material..." A person came forward to ask Li Bai for advice.
Li Bai glanced sideways, and replied him directly without thinking.
Then the person admired and praised, continued to sigh, and then took a step back into the crowd.
There are seats, tea and pastries over there. If you are tired, you can find a place to rest. The arrangement here is very appropriate.
This has been the case for the last few days.
This place was newly arranged by Yuan Jinyu, the place where Li Bai and Ji Yue lived was too small to fit.
When it comes to accommodation, it was originally intended to change places for the two of them, but Li Bai didn't care about it, and Ji Yue felt that it was good to live now, so there was no need to change places.
So it was still in that small courtyard, but Ji Yue moved to a remote corner of the school ground for his daily practice, where he could perform well, and he could find someone to practice in pairs at random.
——It can be regarded as actual combat experience, so Ji Yue was found to be quite good at boxing and kicking.Many people only regarded him as a literati, but unexpectedly, he was actually a real all-rounder in both civil and military affairs.
·
Declaring war, it is natural to declare the world.
Boosting morale is essential before the army sets off.
Yuan Jinyu stood on the high platform, under which there were countless human heads, all in a dense mass of darkness.
The people behind couldn't hear what was being said on the stage, but because of good military discipline, everyone stood silently, preparing to perform a "I can hear it, this is really exciting" according to past experience look.
"I'm too tired, I can't hear it, I have to keep up with the reaction, and I have to pay attention to the performance of the people in front of me."
"If you are too slow, you have to be told, what can you see when you look at the back of your head?"
Because of the scene, there are many soldiers arranged this time.The general is fine, he was born in the army, and for more than ten years he has always spoken like a yell.
But Yuan Jinyu is different. As a member of the royal family, he pays attention to etiquette and posture.
But this time, apart from Zhou Ao, he also had a lot to say.
So I arranged for a person to stand on the side, and when Yuan Jinyu spoke, each person said a sentence and repeated it.
Other than looking a little awkward, nothing else.
——After all, the emperor also has eunuchs to pass on messages, so that's fine.
Li Bai, who shrank in the room and didn't want to join in the fun, was pestered to study again.His attitude towards these people is quite good, he doesn't care about it, and answers their questions with a kind look of caring for his disciples and grandchildren.
It is the person who got the detailed explanation of the answer, who is a little inexplicable under such eyes. ——I always feel that I have been taken advantage of, but there is nothing wrong with it.
This side sends away a doubtful person, and over there, Yuan Jinyu is about to open his mouth to speak.
·
When Ji Yue arrived at the scene, he stood on one side, and his roommates were all on duty here.
In the open field, without the bonus of echo, even if Yuan Jinyu spoke with the greatest strength, it sounded very weak.
Ji Yue's hearing is very good, and he can hear what he said clearly.
Colleagues may not be sure, anyway, they are here to put on a show, so if you can't hear it, you can't hear it.
Ji Yue didn't put all his thoughts on Yuan Jinyu's speech, he clasped his hands and put them in front of him.
There are too many people gathered, and what they have to face is such a serious matter. No one can predict what the future will be like.Maybe returning home, maybe dying on the battlefield, maybe even the person on the high platform couldn't save his life.
This is not a war to be won.
This was a war provoked for the selfish desires of Yuan Jinyu and Yuan Yingrui.But many people, many people who hold a lot of wealth and power, control all this.
The soldiers who have killed and fought stand here with endless killing intent.Even the hot and dry weather is full of coldness of swords and soldiers.
Ji Yue's overly sensitive senses were affected.What flashes in his mind now is the happy scene after killing the enemy with his hands.
While he was fantasizing, suddenly, Yuan Jinyu's voice seemed to be amplified. According to the two sentences just now, the volume was more than doubled.
There was even a little more excitement, excitement, but still calmness, which was in line with Yuan Jinyu's current mood.
Ji Yue, who had lowered his eyes, looked up. He noticed that his colleagues around him seemed to have noticed this change, and a group of people looked hesitantly at Yuan Jinyu on the high platform in front of him.
Some people look left and right, trying to get the information they want from the other person with their eyes.
They are not the only ones who feel this way.
Most of the dark soldiers were just for show, but now they found that for some reason, the voice of the sixth prince was ringing in his ears.
It's not very big, like twenty or thirty people surrounding one person, you can hear clearly.
But they are in the back row, and many people looked around, only to find that the eyes of the people next to them were also confused.
But with a slight glance toward the stage, the other person knows what he is asking and nods.
All of a sudden, the heads below looked a little messy.
Yuan Jinyu raised his eyebrows slightly, not knowing what happened next.
But just said a few words, originally he said a part of the herald and then yelled a part, it was all arranged properly.
This trace of panic was quickly suppressed by the fire chiefs in charge. They are very powerful here, and after staring, the people next to them will quiet down.
A person quickly ran over to the platform from the side path, and went up to the high platform in three or two steps, and said a few words in Zhou Ao's ear.
Ji Yue had sharp eyes and ears, he saw a moment of surprise on Zhou Ao's face, and a moment later he was pleasantly surprised.
Then the man quickly walked towards Yuan Jinyu and whispered a few words in his ear.
Ji Yue heard the soldiers not far away whispering, "How can I hear it so clearly", "I can hear it, what about you", "What's going on"...
The words were chaotic, and Ji Yue extracted the information from the chaotic voices.
After a moment of astonishment, he immediately thought: Li Bai made the move.
·
Freshly fried beans, crunchy and delicious, with a bit of heat.
Above it is precious salt, fine salt, finer than the sand grains on the coast, purer than the salt extracted from the best mines, and free of bitterness.
A team of cooks covering all major dishes was formed to serve Li Bai exclusively.The food on his side is exceptionally good, and there are always snacks.
When Yuan Jinyu came to the stage, Li Bai had just received the stack of beans that was presented respectfully.
He tasted it, and it was not bad.
Yuan Jinyu said a word, which could still be heard in the first five rows, but it became more and more silent in the back.
Li Bai lightly flicked his fingers, and shot a streak of spiritual power as thin as a cow's hair in that direction.
Immediately, Yuan Jinyu's voice reached everyone's ears.Regardless of the distance, it is as if they are one foot in front of them, face to face, and listen to his discussion.
Ji Yue turned his head slightly, and looked in the direction of Li Bai.
He shook his head slightly and smiled.
On the stage, Yuan Jinyu was surprised for a moment when he heard the news. His brows were frivolous when he was surprised, but he recovered his composure after a while.
Seeing that he was aware of this, Zhou Ao held his sword with his left hand, nodded slightly, took a step back and stood back to his original position.
Naturally, the person who had been arranged didn't need to use it any more. He bent down to salute, and retreated to the back to serve as the background board.
Yuan Jinyu straightened his back more than before, coughed lightly, and continued to recite the manuscript.
This brief silence gave everyone in the audience time to restore order. They were still hesitant in their hearts, not sure whether the experience just now was true or not.
So, with a little curiosity and suspicion, they widened their eyes and listened intently, wanting to know whether the voice of the sixth prince would be the same as before.
Although Yuan Jinyu didn't understand why, it was obvious that he had a vested interest.
Perhaps, it is really God's blessing.
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and there was more confidence and determination in his voice.
I will win!I will definitely pull Yuan Yingrui down!
The throne is mine!
Not knowing how long this miraculous effect will last, Yuan Jinyu speeded up his speed a little with a little worry, intending to finish speaking as soon as possible on top of the previous arrangement.
At the same time, he was praying in his heart, he must continue, and don't suddenly disappear again.
Fortunately, Li Bai was still very reliable, until Yuan Jinyu finished the long speech, the reinforcement of expanding his voice was there.
Ji Yue sensed Yuan Jinyu's thoughts from the pause, although his face was expressionless, he was smiling in his heart.
This can be regarded as a little secret.
·
After the end, Ji Yue greeted his colleagues with a smile, passed through the people who were talking, and walked to the residence.
Along the way, many people expressed their views on the strange incident just now.
"Could it be a manifestation from the heavens?"
"You heard that too, right? I thought I was in the front position."
"I'm at the end. I thought it was going to be silent until the end, and at most I could hear a drumbeat."
"It's so miraculous, I finally believe now that the Sixth Prince is the destiny."
The literati are still scruples about their own manners, and dare not speak out.
The soldiers didn't care so much. After the leader led them out, they heard the order to "disband", and they were in a mess for a while.
"Gouzi, did you hear that just now?"
"Erniu, why do I feel like I heard a fairy talking in my ear?"
"Warrior Wuchang Wuchang, did you hear that too? Too...how did you say that? Oh, it's amazing anyway. Is this sixth prince human? Why are you beating me!"
"What else can the sixth prince be if he is not a human being? You have to use your brains when you speak!"
"Immortals! The immortals have come down to earth!"
"Hey Zhuzi, it's rare for you to say something reliable!"
A group of people were frolicking and noisy, and they quarreled in the sky after a while.
There are discussions on this matter everywhere, and Ji Yue has heard many versions along the way.But most of them believed that the sixth prince would definitely win.
This also gave them a lot of confidence.
·
Yuan Yingrui heard about what happened in the Jizhou Army, and the rumors were so magical that she wished to say that Yuan Jinyu was a god descending from heaven.
"Hey——" Yuan Yingrui said coldly, "God descended to earth? Man of destiny? Even if there is, it's not Yuan Jinyu."
The eunuch stood on one side with his head bowed, silent.
Yuan Yingrui didn't take this rumor to heart.
In his opinion, it was rumored from within the Jizhou Army, and it must be Yuan Jinyu's fault.His territory, his people, what can't be said?
"If Yuan Jinyu is really a man of destiny, how can I sit on this dragon chair?" Yuan Yingrui rubbed the armrest, this touch, this feeling of looking down on the world, no wonder everyone wants to be the emperor.
He glanced sideways and asked the people beside him, "Are you all ready?"
The eunuch respectfully said: "Report to Your Majesty, everything has been properly arranged."
Yuan Yingrui: "Yes."
Since you are coming to seek death, how can I refuse?
·
Ji Yue is going to go out with the army, he is not just an aide, because of his outstanding martial arts, he was promoted by Zhou Ao as a vanguard officer.
Temporary military attache, commander of the former enemy, responsible for reconnaissance of terrain, enemy situation, etc., is the general who takes the lead in sending troops.Generally, the person in the original position holds the concurrent post, and will step down after the war.
Ji Yue originally did not have such qualifications, but because of the various useful suggestions he put forward during the preparations for the battle, as well as his excellent performance in the school field, he performed outstandingly among his subordinates.
Zhou Ao took the opportunity to ask Ji Yue to take a team to the next hill to suppress the bandits, and the results were remarkable, with no injuries in the team.
This gave him such a position.
Ji Yue: "I want to lead the team at the front, are you with me?"
He is packing things, actually not many, he has only lived here for more than a month, the only thing he needs to pay attention to is the sword Li Bai gave him.
Li Bai has nothing to pack, even the things he uses are directly taken out of the storage ring.
"It's fine, anyway, I have to make sure you are alive." He said indifferently.
Ji Yue: "...Thank you."
Pioneers are dangerous, but opportunities also exist.If he can survive to the end, Ji Yue's future will be limitless.
·
But Yuan Jinyu hesitated about Li Bai's request to follow him to the battlefield.
After many doctors knew about it, they protested very much.
"Mr. Li, you have gone to the battlefield, what if something happens?"
"Sir, I have another question here... I will have more questions to ask in the future!"
"Sir, even if you are behind, you can follow the wounded battalion! But the front team investigates...it's too dangerous!"
"Sir, if you make any mistakes, it will be a loss to the whole world!"
For this kind of persuasion and obstruction, Li Bai has only one answer: "Oh."
Everyone: "..."
Seeing that he couldn't be persuaded, a group of people with gray beards gathered and approached Yuan Jinyu.
It was that rhetoric again, which specifically focused on Li Bai's importance to doctors all over the world.
Yuan Jinyu also knew it, and in front of him were some respectable people who he had never seen in the past. Just these two people who were known as "miracle doctors" and "the golden needle leaves no dead" already made him feel pressured.
He knew that because of Li Bai, doctors from all over the world went to Jizhou City.
But what he didn't know was that the miracle doctor who had been rejected by his father and emperor had also come here.
Has been busy with attacking the capital, Yuan Jinyu heard that one of his subordinates reported that "so and so came here to find Mr. Li Bai", but in the later stage, he just said "I know", and didn't care about it after he finished speaking.
So many doctors are ignored.
Now seeing a group of people swarming in, Yuan Jinyu breathed and kicked, feeling a little unbelievable.
This is all for Li Bai?Mr. Yueqing, Mr. Huiwen...even the hermits are here?
A hermit who does not live in the mountains is still a hermit?Such a sentence suddenly flashed in Yuan Jinyu's mind.
Immediately after being waved away by himself.This idea is too disrespectful.
They stared at Yuan Jinyu with scorching eyes, putting a lot of pressure on him.
However, it is said that Li Bai's skills are very good, and he is also Ji Yue's teacher. Although he doesn't know how deep he is, there is no doubt that he is definitely better than Ji Yue.
Can such a person be let go?
Let him stay behind for the elderly?I am very short of people now!
Yuan Jinyu was unwilling to do this.In addition, Li Bai will also calculate the trajectory of luck based on the weather, maybe he can choose the smoothest path for them when exploring the way ahead?
Reminiscent of the scene when he first met Li Bai, Yuan Jinyu, who was still a little hesitant, suddenly became firm.
But he can't tell everyone like this, he still has to find a fair excuse.
"Gentlemen, it's not that I don't want Mr. Li in the back," Yuan Jinyu raised his voice, "Although he is young, I respect him very much. To be honest, I have never been able to change his mind about Mr. Li and will."
As soon as these words came out, the group of people in front of them fell silent.
Yes, they have also felt it during the time they spent together in the past few days.This kid is really a wayward person.
Looking at each other, they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
But really unwilling, one of them said again: "Then...you can't put it in the vanguard officer's team, at least you can escort the food and grass behind!"
Yuan Jinyu smiled bitterly: "He and Ji Yue have a really good relationship. They met earlier, and Ji Yue was kind to him. Tell me, can I persuade you?"
"Then you just say that Ji Yue..." But as soon as the words came out, he was interrupted by a person beside him.
"How can you intervene in the arrangement of the superior?" The old man beside him looked worried, "We are talking about Li Bai's affairs, don't talk too much!"
How can outsiders like them interfere with this kind of arrangement?
A group of people were arguing and arguing, but in the end there was no result.
You can only ask Yuan Jinyu to guarantee that you must protect Li Bai's safety and not let anything happen to him.Only then did they leave together.
·
Li Bai was riding on the horse, still in that lazy posture, not pulling the rein seriously in his hand.
Ji Yue saw that the people next to him had tangled faces, and following their eyes, the focus was on Li Bai.
He chuckled and asked, "Aren't you really going to put on your armor?"
Li Bai was dressed in white and changed into a horse riding outfit, but it didn't get in the way.
But he looked very much like a rich man who went for a picnic and a walk in the countryside...Compared with the solemn and solemn atmosphere of the army, he was out of place.
Many people know Li Bai, but more soldiers don't know him.
The base of ordinary soldiers at the bottom is large, and they don't see many people.To them, Li Bai is just a legendary existence.
——The kind where you meet a real person face to face, and you don’t know who the other person is.
Seeing a stranger at this moment, riding in the general's position while riding in formation, and the people around him are quite respectful, this scene is very curious.
A group of people whispered and whispered, trying to guess who Li Bai really was.
He also complained that he was wearing unlined clothes without even any armor, like a wayward young master from some family, maybe he just came to feel the atmosphere, and he would be so tired that he would run back and sit in the carriage after a while.
Li Bai could hear it, so he didn't bother to refute.
"Whatever, it's over early." He replied to Ji Yue.
The other generals originally wanted to chat, but seeing him so indifferent, their minds have eased a lot this time.
·
The confrontation between Yuan Jinyu and Yuan Yingrui is actually very difficult to stand in line with.
I don't know who will win, and I don't know whether I should help a certain person.
For example, if a city that has not yet been controlled by the capital faces the interstate army that is coming here, will it resist with all its strength?Or, to make way?
The defenders of Pengcheng are very upset.
The capital only gave one decree, asking them to drag Yuan Jinyu's army here for as long as possible.
But there were no reinforcements, food, or arrangements, and only two warlords were given.
Prefect: "..."
The magistrate sighed: "Pengcheng is just the first city next to Jizhou. Tell me, I just want to retire here. Why is it so miserable?"
He offered wine and meat to the two warlords who came here, and let them live happily.
In a blink of an eye, he dragged his own people to complain in a small room.
There are soldiers here, but not many.Pengcheng is not a military town. In the past, it was next to Jizhou, because there were Jizhou troops stationed there, so it was very safe. There were far fewer bandits and bandits in the surrounding area than in other places.
Who would have thought such a day would come?
The magistrate: "They don't even give reinforcements. In my opinion, the higher-ups don't take Pengcheng seriously at all. That's right, how can a small town with [-] to [-] households compare to a big city with [-] households like Fengling?"
He didn't want to find someone to talk about countermeasures, he was just very dissatisfied with it.
The prefect: "Let me procrastinate. There are only 5 people in the Jizhou army. I heard that there are still many people who have gone to Jizhou. It is said to be an army of 50. Ah, bah, I see that it is only 15 at most. How much food and weapons can you have in two months?"
The magistrate picked up the tea on one side and moistened his throat: "Hey, let me tell you, I've been discussing this with you for so long, and it seems that the higher-ups have abandoned us. Should I just open the door and surrender, or do I open the door and surrender after making a show?" ah?"
The people below: "..."
The magistrate: "I see it, they don't want to keep Pengcheng at all. This place is easy to attack and difficult to defend, so there is no advantage. It is also a waste to recruit troops. Normal people's brains would not do this."
The person below: "..."
Prefect: "But what I do now is wrong, do you think so?"
The people below nodded frantically: "Yeah!"
The magistrate sighed: "Hey, tell me, why am I so unlucky? If I was in the south of Jizhou, wouldn't there be nothing wrong with me? We don't want to be rich and prosperous, I just want to be in Pengcheng Stay in this small place for a lifetime, and live in peace."
The magistrate thought about it and wanted to cry.
Why is his life so miserable!
Pengcheng is next to Jizhou, if it is not captured, there will be worries about food and reinforcements, etc.; To maintain law and order in the city.
Someone suggested: "Why don't you just open the city gate to show your sincerity?"
The magistrate glared: "Do you think I haven't thought about it?! If the sixth prince fails, then I will surrender No.1! I will be liquidated by the second prince!"
The two forces in the capital are stalemate. The emperor Yuan Yingrui still has no idea whether he can do anything or not.
If Yuan Jinyu fails, maybe it counts.
But if he wins, it's Shindi.
Thinking of this, the magistrate felt hairy.Then if I stop him, even if it's a small block in a symbolic sense, won't I have to settle the matter with me when the sixth prince ascends the throne?
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
The person below: "..." bowed his head silently.
·
"Pengcheng is a dispensable place. Yuan Yingrui's side should ignore it. Their main force will definitely be deployed in Fengling." Ji Yue said to Li Bai holding the map.
Li Bai glanced at it, but couldn't understand.
"Oh." He responded lightly.
Not planning to receive any reply, Ji Yue looked up: "I guess, the prefect of Pengcheng must be very sad."
It's really sad, sad like ants on a hot pot.
Ji Yue pondered for a while: "Try to see if you can let the other party open the door directly. Although it is a small town, the other party surrenders without saying a word, and it is also a name."
Li Bai: "Are you going?"
Ji Yue nodded: "The army is behind, and I will lead a small group of people. If someone comes later, I can also command."
Although his vanguard officer is a position that looks easy to die, it is actually very advantageous.
On the one hand, Ji Yue directly obeys Zhou Ao's orders; on the other hand, he has the authority to lead a team of one hundred people, and he can also command soldiers from the army later.
Temporary official positions, on the contrary, have more power.
Li Bai thought for a while and asked him: "If you take down this city before the army arrives, would it be beneficial?"
Ji Yue was stunned, he had an extra idea in his mind, but he didn't know if this idea was too crazy.
Under Li Bai's calm gaze, Ji Yue swallowed subconsciously.
He asked, "You mean..." Did I think so?
Li Bai tilted his head: "Huh?"
Ji Yue stabilized his mind and looked at the people around him.Now following him is a team of 20 people, scattered in all directions to collect information here.
At this moment, only Li Bai and himself are here.
Ji Yue took a deep breath and analyzed with Li Bai: "Pengcheng's terrain is flat, there is no shelter, and the city walls are dilapidated. The garrison is only one or two hundred people to maintain the city's law and order. Even if it is temporarily recruited, it will not exceed 200 people."
He looked at Li Bai: "Yuan Yingrui didn't send anyone here, and he didn't intend to use this place as a battlefield. It's too easy to be captured here, so it's not a battleground for military strategists."
Li Bai: "Oh." He was very patient and didn't interrupt Ji Yue.
Ji Yue: "It's difficult to defend the city, so we were given up. But no matter what, for us, it's the first hurdle we face after leaving Interstate. Winning will boost morale."
Li Bai: "Oh."
Ji Yue: "If I can lead the team to win, or let the opponent surrender directly, this is the best result."
He solemnly said: "Li Bai, this is of great benefit to me."
Li Bai looked at each other, and he said: "The prefect is worried, he wants to surrender, but he is afraid that Yuan Jinyu will fail, and Yuan Yingrui will liquidate him afterwards."
This person has been worrying for almost a month.Ever since Jizhou heard that he was going to attack the capital, he had calculated for a long time, no matter what, he couldn't avoid Pengcheng.
If you fight and you can't win, and you can't lose if you lose, no matter what, it's not a good end for yourself.
Unless he is the sixth prince himself, this is the only choice that can make him stable for the rest of his life.
But the magistrate was also afraid that if the sixth prince failed miserably, he would be classified as Yuan Jinyu's henchman.Don't you see that there is blood in the capital, it's all people from the Sixth Prince's faction who didn't escape.
Li Bai listened attentively, and then he touched the magistrate.
When Ji Yue heard this, his eyes lit up.
His own ability is not strong enough to travel such a long distance, ignore other noises, and find the sound he wants.
"If the prefect thinks so, then I have a solution." Ji Yue said.
He was full of confidence, Li Bai let out a "hmm" and didn't plan to take care of it anymore.
"Wait!" Li Bai stopped Ji Yue from turning around.Ji Yue looked at him with a question mark in his head: "What's wrong?"
Li Bai listened carefully for a while, the corners of his mouth curled up, and with a smile in his eyes, he said to Ji Yue: "This matter is simpler than you think."
Ji Yue: "???" What did you hear again?

In the early morning, the sky just dawned.
Today's weather is not very good, the sky over Pengcheng is gloomy, but there is no cold wind, and it is still the slightly dry temperature in the morning.
The magistrate woke up early, he hadn't had a good night's sleep recently, and could wake up several times a night.
Madam was so annoyed by his sudden surprise that she often slept with him.
Wearing unlined clothes, Zhifu waved his fan and sighed in the corridor.
"Hey - look at this dark sky, it looks like a mountain rain is about to come and the building is full of wind! I can see my miserable scene a few days later." As he spoke, he couldn't help crying ,
Pulling up his sleeves and wiping his eyes, the prefect began a new day of talking to himself: "I just said that I can't be an official in such a place where the spirit of killing is too heavy. Why does the Interstate Army have a sense of security in the back? Look Look, banditry is less, but together it is a military disaster!"
"After praying to the Bodhisattva for so long, I still haven't given any instructions. Alas, my life is miserable! My wife is so pious. I just asked this time, why didn't she even give me any instructions?"
"Should I surrender or should I surrender?"
He didn't stop talking for a long time, and the servants who got up early not far away were busy with their own affairs quietly.
"My lord—my lord—!" A man ran over in a hurry, and his voice was particularly piercing in this silent morning.
The magistrate was about to vent his emotions when his feelings were strong, but was abruptly interrupted by this shout.
he:"……"
Forget it, stop crying, and no one will listen.
The magistrate glared at the figure running in the courtyard unhappily, and when the other party came to him, he scolded him in a bad tone: "Howling and howling and mourning! Am I dead?! Is Pengcheng finished? You are so early in the morning!" , are asleep, what are you doing!"
He was so angry that he flicked his sleeves with a crackling sound.
The person who came here was a pawn, who belonged to the door of the military room. This room was in charge of military affairs, people's strength, military examination, public security and other matters.
"My lord, the Interstate Army is coming!" He stamped his feet on the ground anxiously.
The prefect who just picked up the teacup and drank water: "Pfft——"
The pawn jumped and immediately dodged.
The prefect put the cup on the table in a panic, not even caring about pouring it over.
He stood up directly, bowed his waist and approached the pawn, his eyes widened and he said in despair, "What did you say?"
The pawn was also desperate: "My lord, there are traces left by the army outside the city! Those who went out to investigate found that not far from the city, there are traces of them burning fire and cooking!"
The magistrate staggered: "It's over, it's over, I'm thinking that I can live for a few more days, but I didn't expect that today is my last..."
It never occurred to me that in a place with strict military discipline, how could such marching marks be left behind?
The pawn quickly supported him: "My lord! You have to cheer up!"
The magistrate waved his hands: "Cheer up, cheer up! Don't give me the soldiers! I won't give it to me! I won't give me anything! The two warlords came and asked me to show respect! What a broken emperor! They just don't care about the life and death of the people below!"
Unlike the feeling of the previous days, at this moment he really felt that death was on the verge.
At this moment, he can't care about any monarchs and ministers anymore, he just wants to scold him well.
The pawn was still thinking, and went forward to cover his mouth: "My lord! Don't do this! We still have to live! The sixth prince is here, and he can't slaughter the city!"
The magistrate whose mouth was covered: "Ah Luo spit—let go of me!"
He finally struggled away and looked at the warden with disgust: "People are going to die! I can't complain yet!"
The pawn smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, of course you can, but... let's think about what to do now?"
The magistrate cursed: "How do I know what to do! I still want someone to tell me! What should I do!"
One sentence is divided into two paragraphs, which is extraordinarily hard.
·
Huddled on the city wall, the top of the wall is really not high.It was not a place where there was a war, let alone such a thing would happen, and even the repairs were done a few days ago.
The magistrate trembled: "Is anyone here? How long has it been, and there is still no movement?"
The city gate has been closed, and no one is allowed to enter or exit these two days.
The other soldiers were speechless when they saw the virtue of their immediate superior.But he didn't hide in the government office, instead he came to the front and made these people feel warm again.
A very tangled feeling of uselessness.
Jing Cheng, who was in charge of the military room, said from the side: "My lord, I just found traces, so I don't necessarily want to attack Pengcheng."
The prefect insisted: "Of course I know! I also read a few military books in my early years!"
He looked away worriedly
