Di Xin shook his head gently, temporarily restrained his thoughts, touched Xizi's head and said, "Don't worry, nothing is wrong."
Xizi looked at Di Xin's expression that had returned to normal, and always felt that he was hiding something in his heart, but he was so considerate that it was of no use.
After noticing the posture between herself and Di Xin, she said with a slightly red face: "Your Highness, it's time to get up."
Although he was still a little worried, Di Xin still felt a little interested after seeing Xizi's sudden shyness.
The current Xizi is completely different from the unusually "active" Xizi last night, which creates a contrast every time he wakes up.
"Okay, get up."
Di Xin touched Xizi's head again.
…
After breakfast, Xizi returned to his tent, while Di Xin sat at the desk and opened a military book.
We just set up camp yesterday, and the army will have to rest for two more days. When the soldiers are in optimal condition, they will launch an attack on the capital of Goguryeo, the Khan City.
At the same time, in the past two days, they also exerted invisible pressure on the members of the Goguryeo royal family, hundreds of officials and the soldiers guarding the city in Khan City.
There is a saying that long-term pain is worse than short-term pain.
Although the Goguryeo side knew that there was a high probability that they would not be able to withstand the Khan City, they would choose to hold on to the city from the beginning due to duty or unwillingness and choose to resist Dali's expeditionary force.
However, once it is vigorous, it will decline again and again, and it will be exhausted.
When the army led by Emperor Xin approached the city, the morale of the soldiers in Khan City was at its strongest. Even after hearing the name of the Immortal Army at this time, there was a surge in their hearts to repel the enemy.
But morale cannot be maintained forever.
If the expeditionary force does not launch an attack on the capital of Goguryeo, the morale of the defenders will inevitably begin to decline after a period of time, and as time goes on, morale will further decline.
At the same time, the fear of the immortal army fighting along the way will slowly emerge.
However, because they did not know when the expeditionary force would launch an attack on Khan City, Goguryeo did not dare to relax its vigilance against the expeditionary force.
Decline in morale, psychological changes, physical fatigue... After a long time, when the expeditionary army launched an attack on Khan City, the resistance encountered by the Goguryeo defenders would be much reduced.
With the combat power of the Immortal Army, if you want to break through the city of Khan, which has less than 20,000 soldiers guarding the city, and 10,000 of them can only be regarded as "peasants", the combat power reduced by the deterrence of three days is actually not enough.
Not much impact.
However, Di Xin's goal is not just the Goguryeo forces, but all the barbarians around Dali, and even more. Therefore, if there is a way to reduce the losses of his own soldiers, he will not be discouraged because of the size of the effect.
Be stingy about using it.
Rather, the more such methods, the better.
However, Emperor Xin did not expect that the first people to be overwhelmed were not the Goguryeo soldiers guarding the city, but members of the royal family.
Two days later, the expeditionary force had completed its rest.
After dawn, just when Emperor Xin was about to order the army to assemble and launch an attack on Khan City, Wei San suddenly entered the tent.
"Your Highness, there is a man outside the camp who claims to be an envoy from Goguryeo. He has come to see Your Highness on the orders of the Emperor of Goguryeo."
Wei San raised his hand and passed the words of a soldier to Di Xin intact, and then asked: "Your Highness, do you want to receive the envoy, or should I directly send that person..."
He raised his right hand and made a horizontal stroke in front of his neck. The meaning he wanted to express was self-evident.
"When two armies are fighting, the envoy will not be fought."
Di Xin waved his hand, thought for a moment and then said: "Bring him in!"
At this time, the Goguryeo royal family suddenly sent an envoy. What exactly did they want to do? Emperor Xin was a little interested.
It can't be that at this time, the Goguryeo royal family still expects him to retreat, right?
With such ridiculous thoughts, Wei San soon led someone into the tent.
"Your Highness, this person is the envoy of Goguryeo."
Wei San handed over his hand and introduced the identity of the person who came in with him.
The messenger made a fist with his right hand and placed it on his left chest, bowing slightly.
The moment he lowered his head, a light flashed in his eyes.
Although I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Yu was young, I never expected that he was so young.
To be able to become a general in the border area of Dali at such a young age, to destroy the Turks in just two years, and to capture their capital city of Goguryeo, this is no longer an expression of youthful achievement.
Dali truly deserves to be a heavenly kingdom!
With this thought in mind, he said: "Pu Shichang, Prince Yong of Goguryeo, pays homage to Prince Dairiyu."
Princes and princes are also different. The prince of a small country like Goguryeo naturally cannot sit on an equal footing with the prince of Dali.
Di Xin's expression did not change at all, he just nodded lightly and said, "Why did your emperor send you here at this time?"
Without any pretense, he directly asked the core question.
It was obviously a very calm tone, but Park Shichang, who was standing at the bottom, felt a sense of domineering coming from the superior, and his body tensed slightly.
At the same time, I was also surprised.
As a prince of Goguryeo and an envoy sent by the emperor, he now represents the emperor of Goguryeo.
Although Goguryeo has now been captured by His Highness Prince Yu and has conquered the capital, as long as the country has not yet been subjugated, legally speaking, his status is at least equal to His Highness Prince Yu.
Dali has always called itself a country of etiquette. According to common sense, His Royal Highness King Yu should be able to speak some polite words at the beginning.
According to Dali's etiquette, it should be a bit rude to ask him the real purpose of coming.
If Di Xin knew what Park Shichang was thinking at this moment, he would definitely sneer.
Discourteous behavior?
If his true self were here, just to receive this person would be a great honor to him. How dare he dislike his behavior? What's so disrespectful about it?
Of course, Di Xin doesn't care much about what these little people are thinking.
How could the elephant care about what the earthworm thinks?
Since Prince Dali asked directly, Pu Shichang couldn't say anything else. He kept saluting and said: "Prince Yu, our king wants to know how you are willing to withdraw your troops and leave?"
"laugh……"
Di Xin sneered and asked in a somewhat contemptuous and ridiculous manner: "Prince Park, if you want me to withdraw my troops, does your emperor have enough leverage?"
