Chapter 1118 Changping County Lord 66
General Xun Liao presented the things: "This is the war document of Huxie Maodun, the eldest prince of the Huns."
There was silence in the room, everyone looked at her, Xi Ning only thought it was funny, she was just a county boss, just a child, only a fifteen-year-old girl.
Mo Ming: "vomit~"
Well, she is the main god. Even if he is the owner of the body, the King of Han will have full authority to deploy the garrison at Linguan.
He held the letter of war in his hand, a piece of sheepskin, full of contemptuous words.
Xining slowly read out a few of the sentences: "If Kaicheng surrenders, I will consider sparing your life, otherwise thousands of armies will break through the city gates and stain the city with blood..."
"It's so outrageous!" Butler Lin next to him was shaking with anger.
Xining stopped and glanced at Butler Lin. She wasn't even angry, so why was Butler Lin angry? Besides, is there any use in being angry? Feel free to be angry if it helps.
The war book also stated that the attack on the city would begin at Chenshi, and if they wanted to surrender, the city gates would be opened before this time.
There was County Magistrate Zhou beside him. He was trembling with fear and lost his mind: "County Lord, the city is about to be attacked. The city is about to be attacked. What should I do? What should I do?"
I couldn't help but roll my eyes. I hadn't even hit him yet, but I was so scared.
Xining said slowly: "My lord, it seems that you are not feeling well, so you should rest at home."
County Magistrate Zhou continued to tremble, and his beard also trembled along with him: "It's okay to be a low-ranking official. I can hold on."
The master sitting next to him is relatively stable: "My lord is a civil servant, so of course he is afraid of the war. This is normal. And you don't know how to fight, so you should listen to the county chief."
Xi Ning gently threw the letter of challenge on the table, raised his eyebrows slightly and said to County Magistrate Zhou and Master: "Now there can be no chaos in the city, Master Zhou still has to support it. Master Zhou still works as usual, and all the staff of the county office , still perform their duties, and arrest suspicious people immediately.”
When the master heard this, he immediately thanked County Magistrate Zhou and promised that everything in the city would be stable.
County Magistrate Zhou thought that his master had said the same thing, so he bowed and agreed.
As for the siege... I thought about it and made a decision: "Transfer one thousand and five people from the south gate tonight to prepare for the war."
There are only 1,500 people at the south gate, and the original focus was on guarding the north gate. This is equivalent to mobilizing all the people from the south gate. Except for a few sweepers, there are really not many defenders left.
Then the county leader picked up the pen and said while writing: "Find someone to deliver this letter to the fourth prince."
After finishing writing, he grabbed the challenge letter on the table and threw it on the ground: "Send this together!"
"As for the eldest prince..." Xining thought of a person: "Zhang Liao seems to be still in the city. Is he still giving advice to Lord Zhou?"
Zhang Liao is County Magistrate Zhou's retainer. Isn't it more time to offer advice at this time?
Xining said lazily, "Then let him go to the eldest prince to lobby. Even if he can't retreat for a while, it's okay to delay it for a few days."
Come on, Huxie Maodun is famous for his cruelty. If he goes to lobby, isn't he looking for death? Maybe it was used as a sacrifice to the army and gods in the past.
Xining also noticed something and smiled slightly: "It seems that this guy is not worth even five taels of silver, so just let him go." He also gained a group of wealthy daughters who all admired him. In times of crisis, he is worse than a soldier delivering a message.
The master said cautiously: "How about another person lobbying, recruiting, and selecting talented people like Su Qin and Zhang Yi, they will definitely be recommended."
Xi Ning took it as a joke and smiled: "In this small Linyi County, even the so-called celebrities Zhang Liao and Master Shiye do not dare to lobby. Who else is available?"
< br>
It sounds like compliments, but it's actually ridicule. The master was very embarrassed and coughed twice, lowering his head and not daring to speak any more.
Xining leaned on the big soft pillow: "I will guard the south gate. Go to the north city to prepare for war!"
Xun Liao and Master looked at each other, and the last few saluted: "Here!" and walked out. When the messenger went to the south gate, the team from the south gate was heading to the north gate, lining up and trotting neatly on the not-so-forgiving streets. The officials rode horses, and the soldiers also had legs to rely on.
He runs quite vigorously. The people on the street moved out of the way, stood watching, and whispered.
The messenger couldn't help but stop and look. There were no soldiers at the south gate. What was the county owner planning to do? Could it be that she was a fairy who could block five thousand Huns soldiers from the south by herself?
On the other side, Uweida outside the south gate received a letter from the eldest prince, asking him to attack the south gate at Maozheng, and launch a north-south pincer attack to break through Linyi County.
The aide sat nearby and couldn't help but ask: "Fourth Prince, should we fight or not?"
The Lord of Changping County is so kind. He sent a lot of things and took care of urgent needs. Now four or five waves of supplies have been delivered, and most of the cattle, sheep, and horses have been given warm sprays, and there is also hay and feed to chew. The remaining large Aobao, which was freed up for a few people to live in, could accommodate them all.
But they only collected the frozen cattle and sheep, and did not take advantage of the situation.
It would be a bit embarrassing if I called him. It's a bit arrogant!
Uweida twitched the corner of his mouth and revealed a sneer: "Huxie Maodun will definitely attack late. Let me attract all the garrison first. When the fight is life and death, he will then attack from the north gate. In this way, he will attack without any effort. You can seize Linyi County, but I will make wedding clothes for him.”
In this way, the staff feels as if they have always played a supporting role and do not think as thoroughly as the master.
"Report to the Fourth Prince that the messenger from the Lord of Changping County has arrived." A voice came from the account.
"Please!" Uvida smiled at his staff: "Let's see what the Changping County Lord said to me."
A letter of war was issued by the eldest prince, which stated that Chenshi would begin to attack the city.
Sure enough, he was asked to attack the city an hour earlier, while the eldest prince was waiting at the north gate to pick up the slack. When the time comes, he will be the first to attack the city, and he will be the first to take credit!
The letter from the head of Changping County was just a bamboo slip with one sentence: "Can you finish the meat?"
What's the meaning? The staff thought they were deceived and stared straight at it.
"Can we finish eating the meat?" is asking "Can we finish the meat?" What does it mean? That sentence comes out of nowhere.
Uvida simply gave the bamboo slips to his staff so that he could take a closer look. After thinking about it for a while, I understood it immediately and couldn't help but laugh.
He suppressed his laughter and said, "Let the messenger go back. If the messenger says he wants a reply, just say no!"
What? The messenger whose turn it was to deliver the letter was confused, but if it wasn't there, it wasn't there, and he had no choice but to go back and return to his life.
After Uvida thought for a while, he wrote a reply and had it sent to the eldest prince.
When Xining heard the reply, he asked: "Is it really true?"
The messenger could only tell the truth and bowed and replied: "Yes, I asked if there was any reply, and they said the fourth prince said no."
"I understand, thank you for your hard work, let's go down." Xining picked up Tangpo and covered her hand with a smile.
Seeing that she seemed to be in a good mood, Jing'er couldn't help but ask: "The fourth prince didn't reply, why is the county master still so happy?"
Xining smiled and said nothing.
After thinking for a while, he stood up: "I'm going to ask Beicheng to check."
Jing'er quickly stood up: "County Master, please slow down and wear thick clothes, it's cold outside!"
