She knows best what the southern army is doing.

These 10,000 people, only 4,000 can be used, and the remaining 6,000 are not of great use, when the wind is good, it can strengthen its momentum, but once it encounters adversity, it is likely to collapse, which will lead to the collapse of the entire southern army.

In her opinion, it is better to use these 4,000 people directly.

And once Dayong's army is dispatched, I am afraid that there will be at least fifty or sixty thousand, or even one hundred thousand troops.

With one enemy against two or even three enemies, this is not very powerful, and it is almost impossible to win 20,000 with 10,000 people.

Not to mention 10,000 against 50,000, 100,000, there is no chance of victory.

The army is pressing, and these 10,000 people are afraid that they are vulnerable, if it weren't for Li Chengkong and others, she wouldn't have had a glimmer of hope at all.

Li Chengkong was arranging the formation and using the formation to make up for the gap in numbers.

However, there is a flaw in this method, in the face of tens of thousands of people, the power of the formation may not be able to be brought into play.

Tens of thousands of people, that is overwhelming, stretching for miles, his formation can't cover such a wide range.

As soon as Li Chengkong and Dugu Shuming returned to the princess's mansion, they had just stepped into the gate of the princess's mansion and turned the wall, when Yuan Ziyan, who was dressed in purple, hurried over and said in a low voice: "Master, I was expected by you!"

"Really coming this way?"

"Well, the army of 30,000 is coming in three directions, and the first team is expected to arrive in Zhenbei City within three days!"

"Three days ......" Li Chengkong frowned.

"The first road is from Changchun City, a total of 8,000 iron cavalry, the second road is from Wanliu City, 18,000 ironclad soldiers, and the third road is Huanghua City, 5,000 Xuancrossbow soldiers. Yuan Ziyan said: "Changchun City is the closest, and you can reach it within three days!"

Li Chengkong nodded: "It's fast enough!"

"The soldiers are fast," Dugu Shuming frowned and said, "I'm afraid that these eight thousand iron cavalry are not dealing with Tiannan City, but our southern border, right?"

"That's exactly what the princess said. Yuan Ziyan nodded lightly: "Their target is not Tiannan City, but our southern border, ready to stay in Zhenbei City, and after replenishing the baggage, they will go straight to the southern border!"

"Hmm......" Li Chengkong muttered.

Dugu Shuming said: "Eight thousand iron horses...... , Dayong's iron cavalry should not be underestimated, we can't beat it!"

Li Chengkong smiled: "You can't fight hard, let them go!"

"Master, do you want to delay their march for a while?" Yuan Ziyan said: "The cavalry can only go along the avenue, and we can destroy the main road to hinder their march." ”

"No need. Li Chengkong shook his head and said, "The people of the south have all moved into the mountains, right?"

Yuan Ziyan said: "I have checked it twice, and I haven't left a grain of grain!"

"Well, that's good. Li Chengkong nodded with satisfaction: "Then there is no need to block their way, let them arrive as soon as possible!"

"Yes. Yuan Ziyan replied crisply, turned around and left.

——

Eight thousand cavalry rushed up the road, there was a tendency for the earth to shake the mountains, and where they passed, the yellow dust was rolling, like a yellow dragon rising.

They rushed to the north of the city in one breath and saw the thick smoke billowing over the north of the city, covering the sky and the sun.

A thick layer of dark clouds seemed to be shrouded in the sky over Zhenbei City, covering half of the sky, making Zhenbei City seem to fall into the evening.

The golden-armored man at the head said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

A young silver-armored man next to him clenched his fists: "General, I'll ask!"

Jin Kai waved his hand in middle age.

The silver-armored young man jumped off his horse, shot at the north wall of the town like a meteor, and shouted: "This general is Duan Rui of the Changchun camp, someone will talk back!"

He fell to the top of the wall while aiming at a dozen crossbow arrows, stood in front of a middle-aged man, and said in a deep voice, "What's going on in the city?"

The middle-aged man looked worried, shook his head and said, "Deputy General of the Changchun Battalion?"

"It's Ben General!" Duan Rui said coldly: "Answer me, what's going on?"

"Alas......" the middle-aged man sighed.

Duan Rui frowned: "Don't tell me it's grain and grass!"

"General Duan, it is indeed the place where the grain and grass are. The middle-aged man said helplessly: "Heavy troops have been sent to guard it!"

"Waste!" Duan Rui drank coldly: "Go and see!"

The middle-aged man hurriedly said: "General Duan, without the general's order, no one can approach!"

"Where's your general?"

“......”

"You don't know where he is?" Duan Rui said, "Didn't you go to the City Guard Mansion to ask?"

"There is no general in the castle guard, and no one knows where the general has gone. ”

"Your city guard is General Zhou Wanhua Zhou, right?"

"Yes. ”

“...... Zhou Wanhua!" Duan Rui shouted.

His voice was like a bell, and the rolling sound spread in the sky, spreading throughout half of the town.

But there was no response.

Duan Rui shouted again: "Zhou-Wan-Hua——!"

The sound was even deeper, like a giant bell striking it, making the ears of the people around it buzz.

But after the voice, there was still no response.

Duan Rui's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Go to the City Guard Mansion and have a look!"

The middle-aged man hurriedly followed him, and the two of them urged Qinggong to jump directly off the city wall, and soon came to the city guard's mansion.

There were four guards standing outside the castle guard's mansion, and when they saw them, they did not stop them, and let them enter the palace.

There was chaos in the house, and everyone was looking for the city guard, General Zhou Wanhua, but Zhou Wanhua seemed to have evaporated from the world.

"What are you waiting for, go see the grain and grass!" Seeing this, Duan Rui roared angrily: "Go quickly!"

The two of them flew to the location of the grain and grass, and saw the smoke billowing and the soldiers who were busy watering it, all of them blackened.

The grain and grass prepared for the army were piled up, but at this time they were turned into ashes everywhere, and the grain and grass that were about to burn through emitted billowing black smoke, but buckets of water poured on it, and it was impossible to save anything.

Duan Rui's face was as gloomy as iron, and he said slowly: "Only this one warehouse?"

"There's only this one. The middle-aged man sighed.

"Zhou Wanhua!" Duan Rui roared.

The surrounding sergeants looked over one after another, but did not stop moving, and continued to carry buckets of water, trying to save some grain and grass.

Duan Rui gritted his teeth: "Stupid pig!"

He really didn't know what to say about putting grain and grass in one place, doing such stupid things.

The middle-aged man said in a low voice: "The general once summoned everyone to ask how to preserve the grain and grass, and in the end, everyone discussed and felt that it should be stored in one place, guarded by elite soldiers, and be foolproof, but I didn't expect ......."

"Foolproof?!" Duan Rui was so angry that his liver hurt, he clutched his stomach and gritted his teeth and said, "How can there be a foolproof thing in the world?!"

The middle-aged man was silent.

As a city gate official, he actually agrees to exist in one place, and if it is scattered, I am afraid that one place will not be kept.

"General Duan, the brothers of the Changchun battalion are now entering the city?"

"Enter the city, enter the city!" Duan Rui scolded and gritted his teeth: "What do you eat and drink after entering the city?!"

He turned and walked away, and soon floated out of the city wall, reporting the situation in the city to General Jin Armor.

Jin Kai General Yi Hanyuan said slowly: "Go to the southern border!"

"Yes!" Duan Rui said in a deep voice: "General, if there is no food and grass in the south......

"It is said that the current southern border is not what it used to be, and it is already rich. Yi Hanyuan's facial features were handsome, and he smiled slightly: "Let the brothers enjoy it." ”

"The general is wise!" Duan Rui smiled.
