"As for these noble families in Sizhou, they are too close to Kyoto, so the task of clearing Kyoto has to be handed over to them." Wei Xiyin said.
Gong Chun was speechless. Taking other people's food and ordering them to work.
How could you possibly come up with this without a skin as thick as a city wall!
He snorted coldly, "The girl is too confident. She hasn't even dealt with the enemy yet, but she's already thinking about how to distribute the spoils."
"I can't help it. I'm just that confident." Wei Xiyin was very calm. "And Chu Yu is here. As my top strategist, if he can't even handle this, what use is he to me?"
Gong Chun's face darkened. "He's the prince of Qi, commanding tens of thousands of Shifang Sect soldiers from all over the world. Do you think he'd want to be your advisor?"
Wei Xiyin was not angry at all when she heard this. Instead, she came over with a look of surprise. "Did you steal the little black ball? Why are you so angry?"
But on second thought, it seems understandable that Gong Chun is angry.
After all, they plotted against the Gong family in front of him and even blew up his fort.
Put yourself in their shoes. If someone wanted to blow up the Wei family fort, Wei Xiyin would jump up and fight them to the death!
He's good-tempered enough.
Wei Xiyin thought about this and softened her tone, "I owe you a favor for this matter. If you need anything in the future, I will definitely help you."
She paused.
He added: "When the time comes, I will help your family rebuild the fort, and I will even provide you with food." He almost said: Look how thoughtful I am.
Gong Chun turned around with a dark face and left, going somewhere else to check the tunnel excavation progress.
No matter how much they lost, it was still the grain in the granary and originally belonged to the Gong family.
He was afraid that if he continued to stay here, she would get angry to death.
Wei Xiyin stared at his back and shook her head, "You get angry so easily, be careful about getting the three highs when you get older."
The guards around were silent and continued to dig the tunnel.
The current three routes are progressing at a fairly fast pace. By choosing a suitable location in the secret passage, we can reach our destination by digging a dozen meters.
The guards outside brought news that the army of the Ten Directions Sect had arrived in Qichuan and launched an attack.
The Hongnong Alliance Army voted unanimously and agreed to hand over the granary.
Upon learning that the war was about to begin, Wei Xiyin ordered, "We need to speed up. Quickly make the fuses and deploy all the explosives."
The guards nodded in agreement.
Wei Xiyin was a little worried about the situation outside, so she ran to the next passage to find Dong Zhiyao.
"Brother Yao, please go out and make arrangements. Someone must supervise the use of the little black ball."
However, Dong Zhiyao was worried about her staying in Gongjiawubao.
Wei Xiyin waved her hand. "There's nothing going on here for now. The situation outside is more important. It's impossible for no one from the Wei family to show up. Otherwise, what kind of negotiation would that be?"
"Chang Ying escorted Erlang to Fufeng County. I'm a little worried. I can only trouble Brother Yao with the matters outside." She wanted to settle this place as soon as possible and reunite with her brother.
Dong Zhiyao heard this and said, "Then you should be more careful and make arrangements to withdraw in time."
Wei Xiyin nodded in agreement.
At that time, I will have to take Chu Yu with me to retreat.
………
When Dong Zhiyao came out of the secret passage, the situation outside was already very serious.
The enemy's huge army, with a lineup of 100,000 people, was like a dark torrent, sweeping in. According to the spies' reports, they were less than 20 miles away from the border.
Perhaps because they were afraid that the noise would attract monsters, there were no roars of war drums and no generals challenging them. The invisible area ahead was eerily quiet.
The quieter it is, the more unsettling it feels.
The Hongnong Alliance Army was afraid that there was an ambush in Qichuan, so they only dared to set up a front line five miles ahead and deploy their troops to meet the enemy.
The flag-waving command platform is being built in full swing.
In war, the army formation needs to be adjusted by the sound of drums. Without the guidance of war drums, the centurions can only pay attention to the gestures of the flag wavers at all times and lead their soldiers to attack or retreat.
At this time, the advantages of the army were reflected. Soldiers who had undergone formal training were obviously more disciplined and had stronger psychological qualities.
This is the biggest advantage of the two vassal armies.
However, the overall morale of the Hongnong Alliance Army was low, and the gap in numbers between the enemy and us was too large. Many militiamen were afraid before the battle, and this low morale spread throughout the army.
No one can do anything about it.
"Didn't the Wei family say they had a way to win this battle? We all agreed to hand over the granary, so why hasn't Lord Wei shown up yet?" Fourth Master Fan paced back and forth, his palms sweating with nervousness.
Success or failure depends on this one move. If they fail in front, they will all be finished.
Yuan Jing's face was gloomy, and he didn't even bother to look at him. "The Fan family hasn't been to the front line, so how do you know that the Wei family didn't take action?" If you want Lord Wei to show up, just wait in your dreams.
Guo Xiu and two of his generals led their troops to the front line to command the battle.
They have received news that the Wei family is making arrangements on the battlefield. Those inconspicuous little black balls are connected together by a long line, and it is impossible to tell what their function is.
There is also the so-called "True Fire of the Sun", which is said to be used in conjunction with the fire chariot.
As for the fire chariots carried by the guards, they were made entirely of rotten wood from the village, and looked as if they would fall apart at the slightest touch.
The Cheng brothers kindly explained to them, "We're short of materials and wood is hard to find, so we'll just have to make do with what we have."
When Guo Xiu saw what they took out, he almost doubted his life.
Of course he knew about the fire chariot, but could such a fragile fire chariot really defeat an army of 100,000?
He inspected the front line for a long time, and the only thing he could understand was the female army's crossbow.
The Wei clan also asked all the soldiers to help make rows of chevaux de frise to block the rear of the tent, saying they were afraid that the noise would be too loud and would attract all the zombies from Hongnong County, causing them to be attacked from both sides.
