MTL - Fairy, Please Let Me Explain-Chapter 225 siege
Chapter 225 Siege
Xu Yuan is almost numb to things like high-level cultivators playing with him to transform people into living beings.
But can this set be played in a confined space like a carriage?
Get in through the car window?
Xu Yuan silently glanced at the rich and generous heart of the beautiful aunt beside him.
Look at the size, if you come in through this small window, it should be stuck.
Well, everything is not absolute.
After all, it is not a hard object.
There was a moment of silence in the carriage,
Li Qingyan seemed to be able to see Lou Ji's movements clearly, there was not much surprise in his eyes, and his voice rustled:
"This incident actually allowed Director Lou to take time out of his busy schedule to come here?"
There is no smell of gunpowder, it is very flat.
"Ah"
Lou Ji scrutinized Li Qingyan up and down, and let out a chuckle from her rosy lips:
"Your Highness is joking, I am only here to see my parents."
"." Xu Yuan.
"Look at him?" Li Qingyan glanced at Xu Yuan with a flat gaze.
Lou Ji nodded, with a faint voice:
"Ever since Changtian was forced to leave Beijing because of that ridiculous incident, I, my sister, haven't seen him for two years."
said,
Lou Ji pinched Xu Yuan's chin with one hand, and forcibly turned his head away. While rubbing the dog's head angrily, she said with a smile:
"Hehehe~ It's been a long time, our parents have become handsome again~"
The world was spinning for a while, Xu Yuan struggled to break free from the old aunt's hand:
"Enough, are you annoying?!"
“.”
Lou Ji was stunned for a moment, and then said aggrievedly:
"Changtian, you are fierce to me"
"." Xu Yuan rolled his eyes.
Li Qingyan sat quietly across from each other and watched the two siblings fight. There was no anger in her pair of heroic phoenix eyes, but a flash of amusement flashed across her and she stared at Lou Ji opposite.
Like looking at a childish idiot.
Lou Ji looked back and met her gaze, a look of boredom flashed in her eyes, she let go of her hand, and sighed helplessly:
"Chang Tian, you are really useless."
“.”
Xu Yuan snorted coldly and said nothing, guessing in his heart that the old aunt beside him would not be a monster anymore.
After all, Li Qingyan is not a big ice lump.
The identity, position, and marriage contract are completely different. This old aunt has no reason to be a demon.
Moreover, as a political marriage, after being together in a carriage for a month, it is easy for a lonely man and a widow to have mutual affection in the same room. The most likely reason for the lack of affection is that one or both of them have ugly faces.
But something strange just happened.
One month ago, Xu Yuanhe and Li Qingyan respected each other as guests. One month later, Xu Yuanhe and Li Qingyan still treated each other as guests.
Xu Yuan's method was ineffective against Li Qingyan.
As a person who led soldiers in the army since childhood, Li Qingyan knew how to conquer people's hearts.
Just like the military training in the previous life, the old nba master.
See the move and split the move, and meet the opponent.
The final result is to stand still.
Auntie Lou Ji is a fun person, and if she doesn't have the fun of fighting with fire, naturally she won't fight with fire again.
Slightly silent, Lou Ji returned to the subject and brought the topic back to the battle:
"Your Highness, the old Jiang He asked someone to bring it to you, is it still well preserved?"
Li Qingyan restrained his eyes, returned to seriousness, and said in a low voice:
" intact.
"Mr. Lou, it has been more than three months since I left the northern border. What is the current situation in the northern border?"
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and March is not long, but it is enough to undergo earth-shaking changes.
Hearing this question, a haze flashed in Lou Ji's eyes.
As the leader of the Black Scale Guard, since she secretly arrived in the northern border, almost all the information will be collected by her, and thousands of information will lead to an answer.
"The current battle situation is still stable. The old man Wu Chenghou and Zong Qingsheng built several large camps near Dali Mountain to defend each other. Things will change.”
Li Qingyan understood the reason almost instantly:
"Because the logistics supplies can't keep up?"
A hint of helplessness flashed in Lou Ji's green eyes:
"Nowadays, a large amount of military equipment, food, and grass are piled up in Guangyang Fucheng because the road is blocked by heavy snow and cannot go north. The army on the front line of Dali Mountain and Dingman River can rely on Xumijie to transport supplies, and it is still stable. But now the inventory in Beifeng City has been exhausted. It's almost bottoming out."
Although a large amount of supplies are transported into Beifeng City, the most important pass town in the northern border every day, this is still nothing compared to the daily consumption of hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line.
Wu Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this, his heart sank.
The thing she was most worried about before leaving the northern border still happened.
Guangyang Fucheng, the transportation hub of the three continents in the north, is located at the junction of the blizzard in the north.
In order to prepare for this war of extermination against the barbarians, her father had secretly prepared a large amount of supplies, but because of the sudden snowstorm, most of them could not be delivered to the front line.
In the silence of the carriage,
Xu Yuan suddenly said coldly:
"The transportation capacity for the war is not enough. It should be that the relief of the victims consumes too many military vehicles of the imperial court."
"Are you crazy?"
Li Qingyan immediately raised his eyes when he heard the words, and looked at the opposite man with a hint of puzzlement in his eyes.
She couldn't understand that the person who was worried about the soldiers just now said such cold-blooded words in a blink of an eye.
Lou Ji did not speak, but looked sideways at Xu Yuan's profile with great interest.
Xu Yuan glanced at the two of them, and said in a deep voice:
"Wu Yuan, you have also seen it along the way. The low-level carriages did not dare to go north without the protection of the array pattern. Along the way, we saw that most of the military carriages were diverted to various places in the three continents for disaster relief. If this continues, the emperor will There is a high probability that the military vehicles used to relieve the disaster victims in the three continents in the north will be dispatched to forcibly resupply Beifeng City."
The people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least.
This is very nice to say.
In the ancient feudal dynasties of the previous life, few monarchs could do it, let alone this extraordinary feudal dynasty today.
The madness at the end of life, the morbid obsession with lifelong obsessions, this kind of thing is definitely done by the current emperor.
Li Qingyan was a little quieter, did not express his opinion on this, looked at Lou Ji and asked:
"Uncle Mu and the others are like this, what about the sects in the northern border, where is their army?"
Lou Ji glanced at Xu Yuan with a smile, and slowly leaned back on the soft couch:
"This group of sects are all on the second line."
"Second line?" Li Qingyan frowned.
Lou Ji lowered her eyes and played with the Sumeru ring on her fingertips: "Their nearly 300,000 elites are all huddled near Houting County, listening to the announcement or not."
"Houting County?" Xu Yuan murmured.
Li Qingyan explained softly while thinking:
"A military fort built by Uncle Mu 30 years ago fell before, and it has been used as a logistics transfer point since it was recovered."
Xu Yuan shook his head and said:
"I mean they have so many troops all huddled together, can the logistics keep up?"
"It's not too deep into the northern border. It's only 300 miles away from Beifeng City. You can use official roads for supplies."
"." Xu Yuan fell silent.
Dali Mountain and Dingman River are nearly thirteen miles away from Beifeng City.
Three hundred miles.
This is not the second line, these sects are directly shrunk at the door of the house.
Those high-ranking military officials may go out in the morning, and they can still eat in Beifeng City at night.
Rotten.
It sucks.
Lou Ji raised her legs, looked at Li Qingyan and said meaningfully:
"It is indeed possible to use the official road to supply supplies. My spies reported that they still have a lot of stock in Beifeng City."
If they didn’t listen to the order, the imperial court would naturally cut off the army’s food and grass supplies for the sects. But the problem is that these sects have been operating in the northern border for thousands of years, and their material stocks have already piled up like mountains, which is not a problem at all.
In other words, if they were to be attacked, the northern border would have sufficient supplies to sustain the war.
Looking at Lou Ji, Li Qingyan shook his head lightly:
"The current situation can't move these moth things. If they move, a big change may happen."
Lou Ji spread her hands:
"I didn't say I would touch them, but just remind His Highness."
While speaking, Lou Ji took out several sealed rolls from the Sumeru Ring:
"These are the information about the situation in the Northern Territory that I have summarized. The princess can take a look when she is free."
Li Qingyan reached out to take it, put it in the Sumeru ring, and cupped his hands:
"Wu Yuan, thank you, Director Lou."
"Okay, the family doesn't talk about two things. My Black Scale Guard will be responsible for escorting these goods to the front line."
Lou Ji smiled slightly, then looked at Xu Yuan, and said, "But since the princess thanked me, can you lend me Changtian for a day?"
Li Qingyan glanced at Xu Yuan who was opposite him when he heard the words, pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said:
"Of course, Chief Lou can use me as a son-in-law casually."
"Princess Giggle is really generous~ Sister, I won't use up Changtian~"
After a sweet smile, Lou Ji took Xu Yuan and flew out of the carriage.
When Xu Yuan came back to his senses, he had already arrived in a boudoir.
The room is filled with the scent of poisonous roses.
The dark green bed curtain was in a mess, and there were some miscellaneous bottles and jars on it, which should be the prepared medicine.
On the other side of the desk are piles of various documents, but compared to the mess on the bed, these documents are classified extremely neatly and clearly.
This old aunt has always been very clear about public and private affairs.
Xu Yuan withdrew his gaze, and finally landed on Lou Ji who was sitting by the bed:
"Sister, why did you call me here?"
"Long Tian, give it to me."
"?" Xu Yuan.
Lou Ji narrowed her eyes:
"Don't pretend to be confused, Xu Changge's Tianxun wafer has already been given to you, don't think I don't know."
Xu Yuan's eyes twitched, he walked to the bedside and sat down with a smile, and said:
"Sister, my father said this thing is for Wu Yuan. It's not like you don't have communication crystals in Beifeng City."
Lou Ji winked and grabbed Xu Yuan's arm:
"I just borrowed it for two days, Chang Tian, don't be so stingy~"
Xu Yuan rolled his eyes.
Borrowed, there is a high probability that the meat bun will beat the dog.
After a moment of silence, Xu Yuan took out a black box from the Sumeru Ring.
Lou Ji's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw this scene:
"This is."
"Xu Mijie."
Xu Yuan slowly opened the black box, and thirty-eight Sumeru precepts were neatly placed inside.
The Sumeru Ring cannot be directly put into the Sumeru Ring, but it can be put in by using a precious special material such as a black box to isolate it.
Xu Yuan slowly handed the black box to Lou Ji, and said:
"The space inside these Xumi rings is very large, and they have been filled with supplies in the imperial capital. If they are transported to the front line, my father said that they should be enough for Mr. Zong to consume for two months, so I ask my sister to send them over."
The sects of 20,000 years ago were all local tyrants, and the content of suspended stones in each Sumeru ring was extremely large, even after wear and tear, it was still not comparable to the current Sumeru ring.
Lou Ji's eyes flickered, she nodded, put away the Xumi ring, and then said:
"Okay, sister is in charge, Changtian, let's continue talking about Tianxunyuan."
The voice has not yet fallen,
Lou Ji suddenly fell silent, looking towards the south of the city with a touch of disbelief in her eyes.
During the time of negotiating with Lou Ji, several carriages escorting the "Yunqi Bullet" had been bought by the Black Scale Guards.
After Xu Yuan and Lou Ji disappeared, Li Qingyan sat alone in the carriage and browsed the summary of the Black Scale Guard's intelligence on the war.
Very detailed.
There are some text descriptions and a few maps.
Carefully recorded everything that happened in the northern border in the past three months.
In short, due to the blizzard that fell from the sky, Dayan had to join forces to defend together, and the barbarians wanted to consume as much of Dayan's army as possible in the process.
This sudden blizzard can be said to directly occupy the right time and place for the barbarians who live in bitter cold places all year round, like a fish in water.
Even though Dayan’s army is strong, under such a natural disaster, they can only choose to join forces and stick to it.
In the early days of the snowfall, the Habayashi Army under her suffered a big loss.
Dividing the troops means that they will be defeated one by one.
Around this point, Wu Chenghou and Zong Qingsheng had been fighting with the barbarian Yi Wang for more than a month.
Three large-scale encounters took place, and the losses of both sides were not small, but Dayan completed the strategic goal of joining forces.
Since Wu Chenghou and Zong Qingsheng withdrew their troops, the barbarian army has been cruising around without striking.
After reading the text description carefully, Li Qingyan spread out a map on the tea table.
The layout of the army stationed on the Yan Dynasty side, the transportation and supply routes can be seen on the map at a glance, the Blackscale Army, the Beifeng Army, and even the deployment of various armies on the Zongmen side.
Next to each garrison, there are some small characters such as the scale of casualties, and the status of grain, grass and ordnance reserves.
In addition, several barbarian strongholds that were detected were also marked.
Looking at the map, as time passed, Li Qingyan's phoenix eyes gradually narrowed.
Since the barbarians attacked Zong Qingsheng's camp more than a month ago to no avail, they have only carried out small-scale harassment.
She has seen the blizzard deep in the north.
The snow is so deep that it can almost bury people, and ordinary soldiers with a seventh-rank cultivation cannot see things beyond five feet.
"The art of fatigue?"
Li Qingyan realized what the barbarian king who ruled the northern border wanted to do.
High-ranking generals don't need to rest, but soldiers can't.
Expeditions of thousands of miles, lonely in the north, raids day and night, under the long-term exhaustion of soldiers, it is easy to be broken by a sudden blow.
Thinking of this, Li Qingyan frowned, and gently swiped the map with his slender fingertips.
Uncle Mu is not an ordinary general, and Mr. Zong is not an ordinary person either. With the ability of the two of them to lead the army, the effect of this move on their commanding the army can be reduced to a minimum.
The reason why the barbarian king insisted on doing this was because he wanted to do something.
While thinking about it, Li Qingyan's phoenix eyes were slightly puzzled, trying to use empathy to push out the old opponent's thoughts.
I do not know how long it has been,
"Boom!!"
A huge roar exploded from the south of the city, interrupting Li Qingyan's thoughts.
After a moment of silence, Li Qingyan got up and got out of the car, looking in the direction of the explosion.
I saw a huge burst of flames rising outside the city over there, and the large defensive array of Beifeng City had been automatically opened because of the explosion.
The next moment,
"Boom—"
"Boom—"
"Boom—"
Three huge alarm bells rang in the sky of Beifeng.
The barbarians have begun to attack the city.
