"General Wang, the Northern Hubei Army is defending the riverside. Should we land somewhere else?"
The commander of King Zhao's army's attack on northern Hubei was not King Zhao, but a general named Wang.
After General Wang heard this, he walked around in circles a few times before speaking: "Before the expedition, the prince said that the Northern Hubei Army is now short of food and grass, and lacks medical treatment and medicine. It is just after New Year's Eve when the alertness is at its lowest. Logically speaking, It should be easy to capture, but now that something unexpected happened, I don’t think we can easily change our battle plan.”
What if the Northern Hubei Army is holding on? Maybe they can capture this position with another attack and land the entire army in northern Hubei.
"But general, our casualties this time are not low, and most of them are serious injuries. If the estimate is wrong, I'm afraid..."
King Zhao's army is not a mob. The generals in the army are also smart and will feel sorry for their soldiers. After hearing General Wang's words, they naturally don't want to take risks.
General Wang also knew this. Therefore, after thinking about it, he said: "Hold your troops for now. I will send someone back to ask for your opinion."
King Zhao knew that the Northern Hubei Army was difficult to deal with, and the General Wang sent was a very cautious person. When faced with such a dilemma, he would not attack rashly.
Everyone in the room heard this and looked at each other. Some people wanted to object, but they didn't want to be the first to do it. If the result was the same again, or even worse, who would be responsible?
At the same time, many soldiers in the Northern Hubei Army were talking about the well in the newly built stone house.
"Do you know where that well came from? Why did it suddenly appear?"
"Who knows? However, last time our food was burned, wasn't it suddenly replenished? Maybe the people from Xuanji Mountain are helping us again?"
"But who in our army came from Xuanji Mountain?"
While everyone was talking about it, a veteran suddenly said: "I don't know about the others, but there is one person who must be from Xuanji Mountain."
"Who?"
The veteran was silent for a moment, "The first prince, he has been a disciple of Xuanji Mountain since he was a child."
"Uh...but isn't he already dead?"
"Yes, your Majesty has told the world that the late Crown Prince suffered a sudden illness in his womb and died before he could be treated."
"Even if the first prince is still alive, he can't be here with us, right?"
"That's right..."
A group of people continued to discuss, some guessing what was going on, and some guessing which general in the army looked like he came from Xuanji Mountain. Anyway, no one guessed who Sheng Ze and Ling Yun were.
That afternoon, Shen Jun led the people to deliver the prepared medicinal materials, hurriedly said a few words to Shen Qingqian and then went back.
"Sixth sister, don't worry about your family. We will take good care of it. Also, the vegetables in the field have been taken away by Yunzhongxian Restaurant, and the price is 10% higher than what you set before..."
Shen Jun's words made Shen Qingqian feel better. She thought that she would be able to make money soon. When she was happy, she used the muscle growth ointment provided by the system to several seriously injured patients.
These are all in the medicine cabinet, but she has never had the opportunity to use them before, and the quantity is not large. She usually does not pay attention to resetting them, so she has no inventory now.
Shen Qingqian learned her lesson and now started to reset the resetting medicines in the medicine box every day. As long as the use speed is lower than the resetting speed, one day she will be able to store a batch of special medicines in her hand.
Three days later, King Zhao sent someone to deliver news to Lanjiang River.
"General Wang, what did the prince say?"
Everyone looked nervously at the paper in General Wang's hand, holding their breath.
General Wang took a deep breath and said, "Continue the attack!"
What he didn't say was that King Zhao clearly said in the letter: If you drag them, you will drag them to death!
