After the Wuwei army swept away all the defensive lines on the periphery of Luzhou, they began to build a rammed earth wall outside the city of Luzhou. At that time, everyone thought that this was because the Wuwei high-level thought that the defense of Luzhou City was strong, and there were many defenders, so it was difficult to forcibly conquer it, so they were ready to build a wall to besiege it and slowly consume Luzhou City.

In the early days of the construction of the wall, several large-scale counterattacks were organized in Luzhou City, but it was no surprise that these troops who went out of the city to counterattack were met head-on, and after heavy losses, there was no such idea as fighting.

Coupled with the change in the situation, Zhu Wen took Chang'an, and Wuwei had internal disputes and confrontations, whether it was Tian Yue or Zhu Youzhen in Luzhou City, they were happy to have Wuwei's army slowly build a wall outside, because now, they are not in a hurry. Wuwei does not attack the city, and it is in their arms. It will continue like this, and when Zhu Wen's reinforcements arrive, they will be alive in this game of dead chess.

But what they never expected was that Li Ze's purpose in building the rammed earth wall was not to trap Luzhou City at all, but to meet his own defensive needs.

Because at this moment, most of the main forces of the Wuwei Army are long gone in Luzhou.

Groups of men came in, and then put on armor and took the place of the armor. The real soldiers were pretending to be people's husbands, and they left the city of Luzhou one by one.

Now the main force of the Wuwei Army in Luzhou has become the government soldiers. This is also the reason why You Yong was transferred by Li Ze and became the commander-in-chief of this operation. Because You Yong, who served as the commander of the Wuwei soldiers and horses, has been responsible for the organization and training of these soldiers in the past two years, and no one is more familiar with the characteristics and combat effectiveness of these soldiers than him.

The field may be insufficient, but the defense is still more than enough.

Of course, if all the people in Luzhou City were united, organized strongly, and gathered all their forces to launch a fierce attack, maybe they could really break the siege of Wuwei. However, it is a pity that in the early stage of the war, the strength of the Wuwei army and the powerful earthquake took them, so that they lacked the determination to go out of the city to fight against them, and of course, more importantly, the internal struggle in Luzhou City also made it impossible for them to truly unite together.

By now, Li Ze has completely put his mind at ease, because Tian Ping finally fell completely to Wuwei, and because of Tian Ping's threading the needle, Tian Xu and Tian Huai, who are still in Bozhou, Weizhou at the moment, although they are still hesitating, they are also eyebrow-to-eye with Wuwei. Looking at this appearance, as long as Luzhou is wiped out, Cao Huan's subordinates who invaded Weizhou will be eliminated, and Wei Bo will inevitably throw himself into the arms of Wuwei.

After all this is completed, the northern land, in fact, has completely fallen into Li Ze's control, and the rest of the jiezhen, either the territory is small and the army is weak, or they are on the border, and they are facing a lot of foreign enemies, and they are still insufficient to protect themselves, and when the royal family settles down in Wuwei, they can also use the name of the royal family to call on them to be loyal.

For these towns, they don't have much choice, first, they can't afford to confront Li Ze, and they also need a strong government behind them to help them stabilize the frontier.

Such a festival town, there are Shuofang Jiedu, Jingyuan Jiedu, etc., they border Tufan, and they are under considerable pressure, if they can give them strong support behind them, they can really sleep at ease. These border towns, which are facing strong external pressure, are in fact eager for a strong central power.

"Jie Shuai, in our direction, Tian Yue is no longer able to organize such a powerful force to go out of the city to counterattack." You Yong said: "But I'm still more worried about Han Qi's direction, from the beginning, Han Qi was not too keen on building walls, and the Xuanwu Army under Zhu Youzhen he faced was still relatively strong in combat, in this case, Zhu Youzhen was very likely to go out of the city to launch a counterattack against the Hedong Army." First, it is to echo Cao Huan of Weizhou, and secondly, it is also to give confidence to the defenders in Luzhou City, which has to be guarded against. ”

"General You has a point, I will write a letter to Han Qi when I go back, and ask him to be careful." Li Ze nodded.

"Han Qi has a pimple in his heart about the marshal, your letter may not be able to attract his attention, maybe he will let the marshal despise him because this is the marshal is despising him, in my opinion, we still take precautions and send a general to lead part of the army to the direction of Changzhi to deploy defenses, otherwise if Changzhi is broken through by Zhu Youzhen, it will cause some trouble to Huguan and us." Gongsun Changming suggested.

Li Ze frowned and said: "Although this is a foolproof strategy, but now our main force here is already stretched, and we can't transfer the main force to the bottom, so if things change, there is no room for reaction." ”

Gongsun Changming pondered for a moment and said, "Or you can invite Madame and her party." ”

Li Ze was dumbfounded.

He really forgot that there was such a strong general as Liu Ruyan available.

After the Huguan incident, Liu Ruyan has been staying in the rear army, perhaps because of the death of Mrs. Wang, Liu Ruyan has always felt guilty, for so long, she has been obediently staying in the back camp.

"Madame is extremely brave, just let Madame lead three or five thousand people over, even if there is a flaw in Changzhi, you can fill the loophole in time." Gongsun Changming said.

"That's also a way, I'll arrange it later." Li Ze nodded.

"In that case, I don't have any other opinions." You Yong said: "Jie Shuai, then I will go down." ”

"General You bothered." Li Ze stood up and sent You Yong out: "Although an agreement has been reached with Tian Ping, what should be done is still to be done, and the city must not be suspicious at this time." ”

"Don't worry." You Yong smiled: "How to fight, how to fight, Tian Ping himself knows it in his heart." ”

After sending You Yong away, Xue Ping was finally late, looking at his appearance, he obviously didn't sleep well last night, it seems that Gongsun Changming's sudden hand made Xue Ping also panic, in fact, it was not only Xue Ping, but Li Ze himself, after hearing Gongsun Changming's frank confession, he was also surprised.

"Brother Xue, you're late." Li Ze smiled and entered the account with Xue Ping, pointed to Gongsun Changming, who was already writing on the left, and said, "Mr. Gongsun has already done a morning's work, and the one over there is yours." ”

Xue Ping looked to the right, where there were a lot of case files piled up on top of the case.

"This is going to be reviewed today, and I will work Mr. Gongsun and Brother Xue, if you can be the master, you will be the master, and if a person feels that he can't make up his mind, he will discuss it, and if he can't make a decision, leave it to me." Li Ze waved his sleeves and said with a smile: "Let me spend half a day of leisure today, and go to the back camp to see my wife and children." ”

In the back camp, Liu Ruyan straddled the war horse, danced the spear, galloped on the open space like the wind, and the wooden stakes that were erected one by one were picked up into the air by the cyan spear, and then the volley was stabbed one by one, and the applause on the school field was like thunder. In the back camp, there were mainly wounded soldiers and a large number of craftsmen, and they were all shocked to see their wife so skilled.

Turned over and dismounted, threw the horse and gun to the guards, took a handkerchief from the little cicada's hand, and wiped his sweat. "Your injuries aren't completely healed, why did you come out?" Looking at the little cicada, Liu Ruyan asked.

In the middle of the pot pass, in the fight with Hao Meng, the little cicada broke several ribs and was seriously injured.

"Yan Jiu's osteopathy and plasters are all excellent, although I can't ride a horse or wield a gun now, it's still no problem to get a sweat handkerchief for my wife." Little Cicada said.

"Take care of yourself, let your injuries heal as soon as possible, and when the official war starts, I will personally kill Zhu Youzhen." Liu Ruyan gritted her teeth and said viciously.

"Madam, no one would have thought that such a thing would happen, I don't think the festival commander blames you, and you don't have to blame yourself too much, I haven't seen you smile for many days." Looking at Liu Ruyan, the little cicada was a little distressed.

"Lang Jun doesn't blame me, that's his generosity, but I can't treat it as if nothing happened. If it wasn't for me who was itching and running to the juncture at that time, but staying by Ah Niang's side all the time, how could those assassins hurt Ah Niang! Liu Ruyan lowered her eyelids.

Mrs. Wang's death made her really sad, sad, and blamed herself. Although this mother-in-law is sometimes very strict, she is really good to her. cares and cares for him, and he is better than his own mother. But such a good person is gone forever because of his own negligence.

Seeing Liu Ruyan's red eyes, the little cicada hurriedly waved her hand to the nurse holding the baby on the side. The nurse immediately walked over with the child in her arms.

took the child from the nurse's hand, and watched the child waving two small fists and babbling, Liu Ruyan's mood finally improved.

"Xiao Langjun's amount of food is too large, and the two nurses can barely supply it." The cicada laughed on the side.

The child in his arms is white and fat, and his body is obviously bigger than the child of the same age, Liu Ruyan glanced at the two nurses and said: "Although it is impossible to pay attention to it in the army, the nurses must choose the best ones for what they eat, by the way, they must also make them happy, so that I can eat better." ”

"Madame, don't worry, I will personally check everything you need. What can be eaten, what cannot be eaten, and what to do at what time, I have arranged it properly. The cicada said.

The two were teasing themselves, but there was a uniform voice in their ears, Liu Ruyan looked up, and saw Li Ze striding towards him accompanied by Li Mi and others, and suddenly his eyes were sore, and tears fell involuntarily.

Speaking of which, although she is not far from Li Ze now, Li Ze has been staying in the Chinese army for such a long time, but she has not made a few trips to the back. Even if it comes, it comes and goes in a hurry.
