After leaving the palace, Luo Zhang looked at the sky and felt that the sky was covered by dark clouds. He shook his head. Although this incident was done by the Great Food Kingdom, it was still done by the Tang Dynasty people. As for who it was, Luo Zhang didn't want to go. No matter, His Majesty said that. I think His Majesty already has the answer in his heart. As for what Your Majesty will do, that is not something he can worry about.

What he has to do is to solve the troubles everywhere. If he can get rid of the cancer of Changsun Wuji, that would be the best.

After returning home, Luo Zhang ate, practiced, handled business, and slept as usual. Nothing was different from before.

During this period, a large amount of supplies were transferred to Gaoguli, all of which were transferred by Luo Zhang. At this time, Luo Zhang also served as the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War was temporarily under his control.

Supplies in other places can be slowed down, but not in Gaoguli. There is also a cancer there, Changsun Chong, who Luo Zhang must eradicate.

Li Jing has made all the preparations, but don't let a little material issue cause the success to fail. That will be his problem.

Cotton-padded clothes and coal were indispensable, and a lot of newly built German engineer shovels were also sent. With these items, building an igloo was a piece of cake.

After all, the river couldn't freeze all of a sudden, and they had to have a place to rest. In a few days, the tents wouldn't be usable, and they had to be igloos. That was the only thing that could keep them warm.

In fact, the weather in Goguli cooled down much earlier than Luo Zhang thought. As early as three days ago, heavy snow began to fall in the sky, and the temperature dropped sharply. Originally, it was still 7 or 8 degrees, which was nothing outside.

But after one night, the temperature dropped to more than ten degrees below zero. As time went by, tens of degrees below zero was not a problem at all.

Without looking at the opposite bank of the river, Changsun Chong's army had already withdrawn and retreated to Pyongyang City. Here, his army would definitely freeze to death.

And in Changsun Chong's view, if the temperature dropped so much, Li Jing's army would definitely withdraw. There was no big difference between staying on the river bank and leaving.

Even if Li Jing crosses the river and comes to Pyongyang, he is not afraid. As long as he delays for a few days, Li Jing's army will definitely freeze to death. By then, if he pursues the victory, Li Jing and he may be able to capture Li Jing. After all, he wants to retreat. If they still have to pass through the Green River, Changsun Chong will not give them the chance to cross the Green River.

The moment Changsun Chong left, Li Jing received the report from below. Looking at the map, Li Jing's mouth curved.

"Can the igloo be completed tonight?" Li Jing looked at Yuchi Jingde and asked.

"Commander, it will be completed before tonight, ensuring that the soldiers can spend the night in the igloo!" Yuchi Jingde hurriedly replied.

"Okay, this is what you said. If any soldiers freeze to death tonight because of the cold, I will only ask you!" Li Jing said with a solemn expression.

"Yes, Marshal!" Yuchi Jingde hurriedly assured.

"How much coal has arrived from Chang'an?" Li Jing looked at Li Jida again.

"Luo Zhang has sent people to deliver a large amount of coal. Coal is also shipped from East Turkestan, but it is a long way there and I think it will be too late." Li Ji reported.

"How many days will it be enough for us temporarily?" Li Jing asked.

"It's enough to last my army for five days. I think the second batch of coal from Chang'an should be transported in these five days. In this weather, sleds can be transported much faster than horse-drawn carriages." Li Jing reported back.

Li Jing nodded, igloos and coal, these are the top priorities. As long as he survives for a few days, when the Green River freezes completely, it will be time for him to launch an attack. By then, Changsun Chong, Pyongyang City That's what's in his pocket.

"Commander, Changsun Chong has withdrawn from Lujiang and returned to Pyongyang. Why don't we take a boat to cross the river to attack Pyongyang? Isn't this better?" Hou Junji asked in confusion.

Others seemed a little confused about this and looked at Li Jing, waiting for Li Jing's answer.

Li Jing shook his head slightly and said, "How many days do you think it will take Pyongyang to win?"

"Three days!"

"Two days!"

Li Jing nodded and said: "Yes, even if we have artillery, Pyongyang is taller and more complete than Liaodong City. It is not so easy for us to blast open the walls of Pyongyang City. Two days is the shortest time." ."

"But what should we do in these two days? Stay in the tent?"

"If you want to build an igloo, you have to agree to it from Chang Sun Chong."

"It's troublesome to transport coal. If Changsun rushes out to fight with us, we won't even have a place to retreat. Behind us is the Green River!"

"If he retreats, let him retreat. This will be better. When the Green River freezes and we cross the Green River, Changsun Chong will catch a turtle in a jar!"
