Xiao Rudi smiled sinisterly, "What are you talking about, father? Since the eldest grandson of our Xiao family is getting married, we naturally want to inform you, the head of the family."
"Humph, the eldest grandson?" Xiao Xiang closed his eyes in despair, "I am not so lucky." Xiao Xiang was a little weak, and after a while he said: "You have never shown such ambition since you were a child. Since when?
At first, you turned into... what you look like now."
Speaking of regrets, Xiao Xiang's breathing became faster. He tried hard to recall the past, as if he couldn't imagine when his eldest son would become like this.
Was it after he was injured?
No, at that time, Feng'er was no longer here.
That must have been a long time ago.
Xiao Xiang's body was at the end of his strength, and his memory was not very good, and he could not remember many things. But even though he was like this, Xiao Rudi still refused to let him go, and even force-fed him some tonics to sustain his life.
.
He vaguely knew what Xiao Rudi wanted him to witness, but he didn't want to think about it deeply.
Xiao Rudi seemed to know what he was thinking, "Father, good news will come in a few days, and you will be relieved by then..."
I will let you die without ever resting in peace.
On top of the city wall, Li Maner was looking into the distance with her telescope. The telescope in her hand was considered an obsolete and obsolete object. The specific production time, according to her era, can be traced back to
It must have been the 1920s and 1930s! It was a good thing at the time, but later on, technology continued to advance, and even the outdoor equipment purchased by ordinary military fans were far better than what she had in her hands.
This was already the worst equipment she could find. Even if she was looking for a simple clairvoyance from the Manchu era, she couldn't find it!
"Humph, the barbarians are so evil." Li Man'er put the telescope in her arms and turned around to run to the office of the temporary headquarters. However, out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that many soldiers on the wall were looking at her curiously.
, as if she had a treasure in her arms.
Oh, that's right, she was carrying a treasure, a telescope, but these people had never seen it before, so they thought she was holding it up to look through it and muttering to herself, so they probably thought she was sick.
"Ah Si, am I weird?"
Ah Si's face was also unnatural, "No, it's just you holding that..." Ah Si stretched out his hand and gestured with the things in Li Man'er's arms, "You haven't seen it before, so you probably think it's strange."
Li Man'er laughed, "This is a good thing. It can be seen thousands of meters away."
"Thousands of meters away?" Ah Si was surprised, "Girl, is it true?" If it can really see thousands of meters away, then this thing is a good tool for spying on the situation.
Isn’t that clairvoyance?
"Of course it's true. I'll show it to you when I get the chance."
Ah Si nodded hurriedly and followed Li Maner to the prosecution department.
The rooms built on the city tower are very small. The two rooms on the left were used for Xi Hu to recover from his injuries, and the guards who served him rested there. Of the two rooms on the right, one is a meeting hall and the other is a place for the generals to rest.
The first thing Li Maner did when he entered the room was to observe the sand table.
Ah Si followed behind her, not daring to take a breath.
Not long after, Zhang Jingfeng, Lu Liang, Lu Fang and Yang Yitian also came over.
"General!"
"General."
Li Man'er nodded, "Please sit down."
How can the four of them bother to sit still, now they are all waiting for her to make up her mind!
Luo Sheng seemed to have changed his temper. He was either eating or sleeping every day. He used to pretend to convene everyone to discuss matters, but now he is living in seclusion, as if he can't even see each other.
And over at Xincheng, they obviously received their rescue, but they pretended not to see it. They haven't sent anyone over in the past few days, not even supplies. If this continues, if the barbarians don't force them to death, they will lose their firewood.
Without food, they froze to death and starved to death.
"There is an army of barbarians outside the city, stationed about two miles east of Xiashitan." Li Man'er snorted coldly, "Arrogant and arrogant."
"What are the General's plans?"
"Two of their catapults were broken, and now they are sending extra manpower to repair them. They were almost blown to pieces. How can they be repaired so easily? But I guess their reinforcements should arrive soon. Once the reinforcements arrive, they will only
I'm afraid it will be difficult to defend the city."
Li Maner thought that if she built two fortifications in front of the city gate, stacked some sacks, and mounted a machine gun, she would not be afraid of how many people came.
She does have a machine gun, but it's a pity that she can't take it out.
What if it's a crossbow? You can give it a try, but if you don't get rid of the black sheep, you won't feel confident about using it.
Li Maner looked at Lu Fang and others and asked: "I guess the barbarians want to conserve their strength and wait for backup. Tonight, they will definitely not attack the city. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us."
Lu Fang's eyelids twitched. He didn't know why, but he felt that Li Man'er's words meant something, as if he was talking about him.
"What do you mean, General?"
“Catch the enemy by surprise and attack them unprepared.”‘
Zhang Jingfeng's eyes lit up, "You want to attack the camp?"
This is a bold idea.
"General, I don't think so."
As expected, the first person to speak out was Lu Fang.
"Why not?" Li Man'er frowned slightly, as if he didn't expect anyone to object.
When Lu Fang saw this, he was slightly happy and said quickly: "There are more than ten thousand barbarian cavalry. Even though some were lost before, their combat power is still undiminished. If we rush to attack the camp, we are afraid that we will not get any benefits. You know
In the open area, the barbarians' horses can move much better than our horses. If the barbarians set up an ambush, I'm afraid there will be no return."
"As I said, the attack is all about surprise. The barbarians never expected that we would attack the camp." Li Man'er pointed to the terrain on the sand table and said: "Since this place is empty and not suitable for cavalry to attack the camp, then we will use another method to make use of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses.
."
"Another way? Not riding a horse?" Zhang Jingfeng looked confused, what kind of fighting method would it be without riding a horse?
"There are many ways to fight, why don't you think about it?" Li Man'er said: "I want to organize a small team of elites to march quickly under the cover of night. When we get to the barbarians, the first thing we have to do is hide ourselves and find out who they are.
Grain location.”
Several people looked at each other, "General, do you mean to burn their food?"
"Since we are attacking the camp, we can't just burn food and grass." Li Man'er said: "At least let their camp explode. It's the Chinese New Year, so we have to make some noise!"
Several people thought of Li Man'er's artifact that exploded the barbarian trebuchet at the same time, and their eyes flashed, "General, do you still have that rare thing?"
"Yes, there are, but there are not many of them. Every one of them must be used on the edge." Li Man'er said: "Explore first, then attack. This time, I will make them lose all their money!"
