Sui An smiled wryly: "It's a tradition in my family. My family has been in business for generations, and the children in the family usually start running alone when they are ninety years old. My father is, and so are my brothers. This is the first time I have led a caravan to run a business by myself. I met sand bandits and looted all the goods. I don’t know how to explain to my parents when I get home... "
"Sand bandits are rampant in this desert, probably because you are only a child, so they attacked you." The soldier glanced around the room for a few times, with a casual expression, and wanted to ask more questions, but He heard a voice from outside the window: "There are spies! There are spies!"
The two soldiers looked at each other, hurried to the window and looked outside, and saw someone running on the street outside the window, followed by four or five soldiers chasing them.
"Quick, the spies are coming." The two soldiers jumped out of the window.
Suddenly only Yun Chang and Sui An were left in the room, Sui An raised his eyebrows: "There are really spies?"
Yun Chang shrugged, didn't say a word, just went to the window to look out, but there were indeed people running around in the street, and many officers and soldiers followed behind them, and the officers and soldiers who were still in their inn just now hurried away Go out and catch up.
Yun Chang was watching, when Liu Man walked in: "Master, are you okay?"
Yun Chang shook her head, pointed out the window, and asked silently, "You arranged it?"
"No." Liu Man also looked blank: "I originally planned to try to lure these officers and soldiers away if they really found out something, but before I had time to arrange it, there was a commotion outside."
Yun Shang was a little surprised, wasn't it Liu Man
Could it be that there are really other Xia people in this city of Urho? Really spies
Yun Chang turned her head and glanced at Liu Man. Although she didn't say a word, Liu Man, for some reason, quickly understood the meaning of her words: "Go and find out?"
Yun Chang nodded and closed the window: "Let's see if it's a misunderstanding or if it's really someone sent by Xia Guojun to inquire about the news. If it's fake, we don't care about it. If it's true, give it a hand if you can."
"It's just that there are no hidden stakes for us in Wuerhe City, and everything is done according to our ability to ensure our safety."
Liu Man nodded in agreement, and walked out the door quickly.
Sui An looked at Yun Shang curiously: "Didn't I hear you and Sister Liu Man say that this Urho city is in the desert, and there are deserts everywhere. It is not easy to march, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Is it easy to be discovered when the soldiers approach? Then you shouldn’t send people to this Urho city to inquire about the news?”
Yun Shang shook her head: "Not necessarily."
"not necessarily?"
Yun Shang heard Sui An's voice full of curiosity, and couldn't help laughing: "Are you interested in marching and fighting?"
"Yes." Sui An chuckled: "I was arranged by the organization to be at the border before, and I have also experienced several wars. I think it's good to be a soldier who defends the country."
"At a young age, ambition is not small." Yun Shang smiled a little bit in his eyes: "Yes, I discussed this matter with Liu Man before. This Urho City is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, but there is also a problem. Very bad."
"Huh?" Sui An really got interested immediately: "Master, tell me quickly."
The corners of Yunshang's mouth twitched, but he smoothed it out quickly: "It is precisely because Urho City is located in the middle of the desert, like an isolated island in the desert, so supplies are very scarce. If the army enters the desert, avoid The range that can be seen by the beacon towers in all directions of the city is in a state of siege, and they will not be able to hold on for long if they surround the city of Urho and cut off all its supplies."
Sui An stared wide-eyed, his eyes shining like stars: "That's right, why didn't I think that this is possible?"
Yun Shang smiled: "This is not an unthinkable idea, and now there is a wise king in the army of the Xia Kingdom, and the wise king is resourceful, and because he is at the border during this period, it is difficult for Yelang Kingdom and Xia Kingdom to cross the border. I know these cities better than I do, so he should be able to think of some simpler, faster and more effective ways to deal with this city in the desert."
"Prince Xian?" Sui An was curious: "I have heard of the prestige of Prince Xian. Is Prince Xian really that powerful? Is he very good at martial arts, like a general who always wins?"
Yun Shang shook her head with a smile: "Not all the victors are generals, and they all have extremely high martial arts skills."
"Ah? Isn't it?" Sui An was a little disappointed: "The martial arts are not high, how can you win the battle?"
"Marching and fighting does not rely solely on force to win. There is a saying in military books that the way to use soldiers is to attack the mind first and attack the city as the bottom. The heart is the top and the military is the bottom. , followed by cutting down troops and attacking the city. The method of attacking the city is a last resort.”
"So, since ancient times, on the battlefield, strategy is even more important than the so-called martial arts. And the wise king is especially good at strategy."
Sui An seemed to understand, but frowned: "Is that so?"
Yun Chang smiled and touched Sui An's head: "If you want to go to the battlefield and become a soldier, or even a general, I can help you, but on the battlefield, winning the battle is second, and the most important thing is to win the battle." Save your life."
"So, blindly reckless and just rushing forward is not enough. You can take advantage of this time to read more military books. I happen to be right next to you. You can read more military books. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me. When the time comes , I can introduce you to the army, and you can serve under any general you want."
Sui An's eyes shone brightly: "Really?"
"Really." Yun Chang said with a smile in his eyes, "I don't lie to anyone, especially not to a kid as old as you."
Although Sui An, who was treated like a child, was a little unconvinced, his heart was full of agitation: "Okay, I believe what the master said, and I will ask someone to buy a few military books. I will read them when I have time." .”
Seeing his serious appearance, Yun Shang couldn't help laughing.
When Liu Man came out of the room, he heard Sui An's joyous laughter, paused, and went downstairs.
Yunshang ordered to check whether the person who was chased just now was a spy sent by Xia Guo to inquire about the news. After thinking about it, she felt that this matter should be done by herself.
Liu Man walked out of the inn, put the cap in his hand on his head, and quickly blended into the crowd.
After making several turns in the city, Liu Man chose a secluded alley, raised his hand, took out a whistle from his sleeve, and blew it.
The whistle is very unique, like some kind of bird call, but it is faintly different.
After Liu Man blew a few times, he stopped, and after a while, he blew a few more times.
After a while, two figures suddenly turned in from the alley...
