Chapter 1578: Enemy on the back

   Chapter 1578 Enemies

   “You rest well first, we are going to fight, but there is no hurry to send troops.” After Bai Qingyan finished speaking, Wei Zhong walked out of the yard with his servants carrying shoulders, “Go back and rest for a while.”

   After a big battle last night, Bai Qingjue came with the soldiers day and night. At this time, the soldiers were trapped and the horses were scarce, so it was not possible to win the battle.

   It is better to let the soldiers eat and drink enough to rest for half a day. When Shen Yese sends troops to attack the Xiping army suddenly, at this time, the soldiers of Da Zhou are still full of resentment, and they are boiling with blood and want to take revenge. Naturally, they are full of fighting spirit.

   Bai Qingjue knew that her elder sister was attacked, so she rushed over and saw that her elder sister was injured on her arms and legs, as well as some skin injuries. While she was relieved, her heart was also full of anger.

   “I have already sent people to watch Xiping County. If there is any news, I will send it back immediately, so that the soldiers can eat and sleep. After the sun sets tomorrow, I will send troops to Xiping County!” Bai Qingyan said to Bai Qingjue.

Bai Qingyan not only sent people to watch Xiping County, but on the way back with the soldiers, he chose several important locations and let them go. If Xiping County sent spies to visit Qucheng, they would not be able to capture them alive if they encountered them. Just kill it.

   “Yes!” Bai Qingjue answered and asked again, “Elder sister, do you want to bring the 50,000 defenders of Pingyang over?”

“We’ve already sent people, and within three days… the Pingyang army will arrive.” Bai Qingyan whispered with Bai Qingyan, “Besides, although there are not many defenders in Guangling, I also transferred over here. Guangling is not far from Shequ, and it is estimated that we will be able to arrive at noon tomorrow at the latest, and we will set off after a little repair.”

  ·

   In the early morning of the second day, the sky was just numb and bright, and the sun had not yet jumped out. Only a strong light could be seen from the thick clouds in the eastern sky, as if the heavy clouds were covered with white light.

  The soldiers are still resting, and there is no dog barking in the quiet city of Shequ…

   There was only a slight sound from the friction of the armor when the defenders on the city wall changed their defenses.

   Bai Qingyan just got up when he heard Liu Pinggao report from outside that he had caught the spies.

  Liu Ping stood tall in the house, separated from Bai Qingyan by several heavy drapes, and a painting screen. The half light inside had not been revealed, Liu Pinggao could only hear the sound of Bai Qingyan washing water inside.

The dim light outside the curtain reflected Liu Pinggao’s solemn half face, Liu Pinggao’s voice was cold, with a bone-shattering resentment: “The last commander used some means, since the two spies have been tortured only to cry. I beg for mercy, I don’t know what to say. Another said earlier… Prince Xiping knew that His Majesty was good at quick battles, and he was afraid that His Majesty would dispatch troops to attack Xiping County immediately after returning to Shequ, so he sent them to investigate!”

“Later, under the heavy punishment, he spit out something, saying that the prince of Xiping asked the Xiping army to strictly guard the city of Xiping, and he had already sent someone to invite other kings of the Yan Kingdom. If Da Zhou attacked their Xiping County to take revenge, he would be with him. The other vassal kings attacked Da Zhou’s army from inside and outside! If Da Zhou waited for the Da Zhou army to not take revenge for the time being, they planned to take advantage of Da Zhou’s unreacted response, and forcefully attack Shequ with other vassal kings to kill Your Majesty.”

   She took the warm handkerchief that Wei Zhong handed over, wiped her face, and gargled her mouth with fine salt. Then she asked aloud, “Did the people who were sent to watch Xiping County come back with news?”

   “Not yet.” Liu Pinggao said.

“Send someone to go and see if our people were discovered by the prince of Xiping, or if they didn’t find anything unusual and kept guarding!” Bai Qingyan counted the time, “let them come back within three hours, Whether or not you see the people we sent to watch Xiping County!”

   “Yes!” Liu Ping exited the main room with a loud voice, and quickly ran out of the yard to give an order.

  Liu Pinggao just walked out of the yard not too far when he met Xiao Ruojiang who came back with Bai Qingjue last night.

   Seeing Xiao Ruojiang wrapped in a layer of cold air, with water vapor on the top of his hair and eyelashes, Liu Pinggao was quite surprised: “Where are you going?”

“I went to Xiping County at night!” Xiao Ruojiang’s face was red with cold, and he couldn’t speak properly. Hearing Liu Pinggao say that Bai Qingyan had just ordered someone to go to Xiping County, he added, “Then there is no need to do so. Send someone to go, I just came back, I will go to see the big girl.”

  Liu Pinggao looked at Xiao Ruojiang who hurried away in a strong suit, and couldn’t help feeling that the two brothers, Xiao Ruohai and Xiao Ruojiang, next to His Majesty, were amazing people, they could even make a trip to Xiping County by themselves.

  Bai Qingyan said that Liu Pinggao knew the abilities of these two young brothers, but he couldn’t help but think of Xiao Ruohai coming… If this battle to destroy Yan, Xiao Ruohai and the Shen Qingzhu next to His Majesty would be there.

   Hearing Xiao Ruojiang greet him at the door, Bai Qingyan instructed Wei Zhong: “Brother Nurse just came back, I’m afraid he’s still hungry, send someone to invite Ah Jue over, prepare breakfast, and let’s use some together.”

  Xiao Ruojiang came in from outside the cotton felt curtain. After Wei Zhong sent someone to pass the meal, he ordered someone to move the red charcoal copper stove to Xiao Ruojiang’s side, and personally took over Xiao Ruojiang’s cold cloak.

Xiao Ruojiang took out the map of Xiping City he had drawn from his chest and asked Wei Zhong to hand it to her, so that he would not pass the coldness on his body and tell Bai Qing: “Last night, the whole city of Xiping City was on alert, so I couldn’t infiltrate the city. Not very detailed, it can only be an approximate city size and wall height.”

“Xiping City was built relatively early, so the city wall is not high.” Wei Zhong brought the hot tea to Xiao Ruojiang, he nodded in thanks, and then said to Bai Qingyan who was looking at the picture, “If it was the Tiger Eagle Army or Shuo Yang Jun is here, and it is easy to climb the city, but if you rely on the Anping army alone…it’s not impossible to win, but it will take a lot of time, so it’s hard to guarantee that other vassal kings will not come!”

   Xiao Ruojiang just finished speaking when Bai Qingjue arrived. Xiao Ruojiang hurriedly stood up to salute Bai Qingjue. Bai Qingjue waved to Xiao Ruojiang to sit down. After saluting with Bai Qingyin, he sat down before Bai Qingyin.

   “Eldest girl…” Xiao Ruojiang sat back on his knees again and looked at Bai Qingyan, “Our troops are limited. If we spend too much time here in Xiping City, other vassal kings will come, and I’m afraid they will be attacked by the enemy.”

  Bai Qingyan held the candle lamp on the table, endured the pain in his leg, and walked to the big map hanging on the wall. Bai Qingjue and Xiao Ruojiang also quickly got up and followed.

  Bai Qingyan pointed to the location of Jiujiang on the map: “The vassal king closest to Xiping and with the most troops is… King of Jiujiang!”

She moved her finger from Jiujiang to Xiping City: “It takes two days to get from Jiujiang to Xiping City! It takes one day to go from Guangling in our Dazhou to Xiping City, and it will take three days to mobilize the defenders of Yangcheng to help Xiping City! Xiao Si ordered yesterday evening. Let a city dispatch troops to help, it is already at Shiqu in the middle of the night! As soon as the troops from Guangling arrive at noon, we will have 40,000 troops in our hands to dispatch!”

   There is one more update… Still have to wait for a while, the little cuties go to bed first, wake up in the morning and watch!
