That night, Xu Wu went to General Zhao, and Jiang Yuxi's guess was told to General Zhao. Of course, like last time, saying that this is Huo Changqing's guess. General Zhao didn't think too much at this time. He only asked Xu Wu: "Did your foster father say that he has a certain degree of certainty?" This is not a trifling matter. You must know that fighting a war is a rush to fail again and again. exhaust. If they let this out, the North Abductees did not retreat within the time they said, and the consequences would be disastrous.
Xu Wu said: "Ninety percent! My foster father said that as long as they can hold on, they will definitely retreat." After burning the granary, even if there are other grains in stock, there are so many people that it has reached the top in three days. However, this time is more sensitive, so let General Zhao measure it by himself.
General Zhao nodded and said, "I see."
Xu Wu walked forward, and General Zhao went to Qin Zhao on the back foot, and told Qin Zhao of the situation: "I mean, let this news out so that all the soldiers can know it." In this way, the soldiers have a bottom. , Killing the enemy will be more brave.
Qin Zhao hesitated: "What if it's not allowed?"
General Zhao looked at Qin Zhao and said, "The current offensive of the North Abductees, we can’t wait for the arrival of reinforcements, and we can only last for five or six days at most. Therefore, it is not necessary to let the soldiers know that the North Abductees will not resist for five days. , So morale can also be raised, we are more certain." According to General Zhao's prediction, without food, these northern abductees can withstand three days is not bad, but the time is relaxed by two days, and there is still room for change.
Qin Zhao knew that there was no better way now, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
The Northern Captive Army attacked for two consecutive days and nights, and there was no sign of retreating. Fortunately, words have already been released here, saying that as long as they persist for five days, these northern captives will push the ice because they have no food, so the soldiers have a bottom in their hearts, and they are not desperate for this. Don't think this is a trivial matter. Sometimes morale determines the success or failure of this war.
Xu Wu got the news from the outside and said to Yuxi: "Madam, many officials in Yucheng fled from Yucheng with their children at night last night." The officials Xu Wu said were all civil officials.
Yuxi heard this and asked, "Has Xia Tongzhi also escaped?"
Xu Wu nodded and said, "The officials in Yucheng have basically escaped." These things are greedy for life and fear of death.
Yuxi didn't care, and said, "If you escape, you will run away. Anyway, this group of waste will not help if you stay in Yucheng." If these people and officials are willing to come forward, she won't be able to organize the women, children, and children to help. Soldiers fighting blood in the front.
Xu Wu said nothing.
At this time, Mother Xi came in and said, "Madam, Lian Zhuangtou is asking to see you outside." Lian Zhuangtou came in with things. Of course, it was not food, but poultry raised in Zhuangzi. Yuxi sent all the livestock from Zhuangzi to the city two days ago.
Even after Zhuang Tou came in, he did not dare to look up at Yuxi, but knelt on the ground, knocked three heads towards Yuxi, and said, "Madam, all the animals that can be slaughtered are here. The things have been given to Han Guan. "This means that the small ones that have not grown are not delivered.
Yuxi nodded and said, "Thank you."
Lian Zhuangtou quickly said: "It's not hard, but there are not many things." The chickens, ducks and pigs raised on the Zhuangzi are all for Yunfu. When sent to the front, those people would probably be able to drink only a sip of soup.
Yuxi said: "There are not many things, but it's a little bit of our mind." She can't do anything else, so she can only do a little bit of effort.
Even Zhuangtou himself retreated from the battlefield. He knew that although there were not many things, it warmed the hearts of frontline soldiers.
Yuxi asked, "Are those children okay on Zhuangzi?" Nowadays, she doesn't have more time to pay attention to these children in times of crisis.
Even Zhuangtou nodded and said, "It's all very well." Because of the war, no one knows what will happen, so the children on Zhuangzi are now a bowl of gruel every day. It was not that even the Zhuang boss treated them harshly, but the situation was unclear, and it would be safer to keep food.
Yuxi nodded: "The child is fine. By the way, is Fu Qingluo okay on Zhuangzi?" At the beginning, Fu Qingluo yelled that women are no worse than men and wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. As a result, Zijin went to battle to kill the enemy, but Fu Qingluo was nowhere to be seen.
Lian Zhuangtou was silent for a while and said, "Grandma Fu's family brought her child to find Ms. Fu six days ago, and then Ms. Fu followed Grandma Fu." Grandma Fu, a female classmate, took her daughter to flee. , I was not at ease, Fu Qingluo had martial arts, and the martial arts of the guards around him were not low. With Fu Qingluo by her side, she was safer with her children.
Fu Qingluo was reluctant to leave at first, after all, this was the task Yuxi gave her. But in the end, under the tears and pleadings of Grandma Fu and her two nieces, she left. However, Fu Qingluo did not take away all the female guards around him, leaving half of his staff.
Yuxi skipped this topic: "You go back now! If Yucheng is breached, you can hide it with your children to ensure their safety." At that time, as a precaution, Zhuangzi also dug a secret road. But this news, only a few people know.
Lian Zhuangtou knocked Yuxi three more heads and said, "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely protect the safety of those children."
Yuxi sighed, but said nothing.
After another day of fighting, the offensive of the Northern Captive Army not only did not recede, but became even more fierce. One of the soldiers on the wall fell down, and another one came up on top. People who have never been on the battlefield will never know the cruelty of war.
Zijin raised the knife and dropped it, and cut off the head of a soldier from the North. In the past three days and two nights, Zi Jin's eyes were flushed, and he didn't know how many people he had killed.
Yu Zhi was a little anxious, and said, "Zi Jin, let's go down and take a rest! You are like this, your body can't hold it!" During the three days and two nights, Zi Jin had eaten a little bit, but he didn't have time to rest. Not to mention that Zijin can't be carried by a woman, even he can't carry it by himself.
Zijin said loudly: "I can hold on." After finishing speaking, the big knife slashed on the head of a soldier who rushed up from the North.
Yu Zhi knew that reasoning with Zijin wouldn’t work, so he simply grabbed her by the shoulder, dragged her aside, and said, “You’re not an iron man, even if you don’t sleep, come with me to eat something. You can continue to kill the enemy if you are full. ." He worried that if this continues, Zijin will die from exhaustion.
Purple Pansy was unwilling to go down.
Yu Zhi said coldly: "Zi Jin, you promised Madam to live to see her. If you go on like this, you don't need a barbarian to kill you, and you will fall yourself. Come down with me and come back when you are full."
With Yu Zhi's insistence, Zijin finally followed him down the city platform. Large pots were erected under the city platform. These cauldrons are all steaming in vain. Of course, these cauldrons are not for cooking, but for boiling water. The boiled water was sent to the city tower and splashed on the barbarians, and it was enough for them.
Yu Zhi and Zijin walked to the cooking place, looked at the white and fat steamed buns in the cage, Zijin groaned and couldn't help swallowing. It was the first time she was hungry like this since she had been with his wife.
A short and thin man walked over and said to the two of them: "You follow me." These steamed buns are for soldiers, and ordinary people can't eat them. And Yu Zhi and Zijin's blood covered in blood don't need proof, they know their identities at a glance.
Purple pansy walked around the railing outside, which was a sign that other people could not enter. Whether it's boiling water or cooking, the area is delimited, and you can't walk casually. Otherwise, there will be order, and it will not help but add chaos.
Zijin walked up to a cage of steamed buns, without needing to be greeted, grabbed a steamed bun, stuffed it in his mouth and ate it. I choked when I ate too fast.
Yu Zhi ate more gracefully, and when he saw it, he patted Zijin's back lightly. At this time, a woman brought two bowls of soup over and said, "Take a mouthful of hot soup!"
Zijin took the soup and took a big mouthful, then swallowed it with the buns. Zijin felt better, and said to Yu Zhi, "You also eat quickly, don't worry about me."
Yu Zhi nodded, took a sip of the soup and said, "This soup seems to be chicken soup." Although the taste is a little weak, it should be right.
At this time, Zijin was thinking about killing the enemy, not caring what kind of soup he was drinking, and said, "Hurry up, eat it, and go up and kill the enemy if you eat it!"
Upon seeing this, Yu Zhi said, "Take a break! Even the squinting will be done. You haven't closed your eyes for three days and two nights. Take a break and kill again."
Yu Zhi was very tough at this time and said, "No, take a rest for half an hour, and I'll call you at some point." He didn't want the purple pansy to be exhausted.
With Yu Zhi's insistence, Zijin also stepped back and said, "Okay."
Soldiers who retired have a special rest place. Zijin and Yu Zhi ate and drank enough, and went to rest. But before squinting his eyes to rest, Zi Jin was worried that he would not be able to wake up from sleep, so he called a child who came to help and asked him to wake up in half an hour. The child agreed with one bite.
When it was time, the child woke up the purple pansy, and Yu Zhi was still sleeping soundly! Zijin wanted Yu Zhi to sleep well, so she went to the battlefield alone! But her hand was held by Yu Zhi, she couldn't take it off at all, and she could only wake up Yu Zhi.
Although it was midnight, torches were lit up and down the city, just like daylight. Zi Jin and Yu Zhi quickly went to the city platform and began a new round of fighting.
Killing until the dawn, Zijin asked: "Yu Zhi, do you feel that these Beijiao offensives have not been violent a few days ago?" It seemed to soften.
Yu Zhi was also full of joy, and said, "Isn't it said that the grain and grass in the North Captive were burned? They must be unable to hold it!" Thinking of this, Yu Zhi was full of fighting spirit. As long as they persist, they will be able to win the final victory.
