"The Beirong people are going to have a big event. They have gathered young men from all tribes outside the city, numbering 120,000. It's so big."
Liu Zhirou wore a bamboo hat on his head and drew a large circle with his right hand. He introduced the situation to Chang Siguo who was walking up to the city. However, no matter how he listened, he seemed to be gloating about the enemy's strength.
"If we don't pull out the hard nail that is our Sihuang City, the Beirong people will not dare to go south with confidence, and they will not feel at ease. They are worried that their retreat will be cut off and they will become a turtle in the urn."
Chang Siguo just listened, his eyes opened, and he vaguely monitored the five-foot range around his body.
Even though Can Ye was completely destroyed, he still maintained his usual caution.
The little guy Wu Mo still wanted to go to the top of the city in broad daylight to see the lively scene of the army attacking the city and flying arrows like locusts, but he knocked a chestnut and confined him to the yard. He was not allowed to run anywhere and told Qingya to watch carefully. A little wild girl with a mouth.
The sword is ruthless and the arrow has no eyes.
It was difficult for him to look after the Beirong people when they attacked the city.
Liu Zhirou was full of energy. He had long been accustomed to Chang Guiren's silence. He pointed at the dozens of falcons circling high in the sky and said, "Brother Chang, please shoot down a few of those nasty flat-haired birds to stop them from being so arrogant. It’s not bad luck if you put some bird droppings on the bamboo hat.”
Without saying a word, Chang Siguo took out his bow and arrows.
"Boom" and "Boom" sounded several times in succession, and arrows shot through the air leaving afterimages as fast as meteors.
Seven or eight falcons chirped and fell to the ground, not a single arrow missing.
The domineering falcon above Sihuang City flew in haste and was instantly gone.
Waves of cheers and cheers rang out from the top of the city.
Chang Siguo held his bow and raised his hands high, and made a bow salute in response.
At this moment, we are all brothers on the battlefield and on top of the city.
The calculations of the city and the betrayal of some people in the capital were all forgotten. In the face of life and death, everyone could only use their lives.
Protecting Liu Zhirou while walking at the top of the city, Chang Siguo kept nodding and saying hello to the cultivators, commanders, captains, and even uncles and captains he was familiar with. He didn't recognize a few of them, but there were so many cultivators who knew him. .
Liu Zhirou walked in front, with guard Chang Siguo walking on his left, followed by two family guards in black.
Almost all cultivators looked at Liu Baiyi at a distance.
Although we won great victories in Paomaling and Bailangpo.
However, Liu Baiyi's reputation for cheating even his own people spread among the cultivators of Sihuang City and the Bandit-breaking Army.
In Lao Yi's sarcastic words, "Mr. Liu's reputation is notorious." No one is willing to get in front of Liu Zhirou to flatter him. Even the several governors and commanders mostly smile when they see him, and just maintain their superficial politeness.
Liu Zhirou muttered angrily at this obvious difference in treatment.
"They know nothing. I'm a newbie here. If I hook up with them, I'll be as good as a real brother. What do the generals think? Only if I don't join the mountain and form cliques, can I have the opportunity to command thousands of troops." Expand your ambition in life.”
Chang Siguo glanced at Liu Baiyi, who deliberately told him, but he didn't respond or comfort him.
The sins you have committed must be endured with tears in your eyes.
He said to Captain Niu Li, who was leaning against the city wall and bowing to him with a wrinkled smile, "Oh, no, it's Uncle Niu now." He smiled, nodded, and patted Lao Niu on the shoulder.
"be careful"
"Why"
Uncle Niu was so excited that his face turned red. He didn't even hold back a greeting for a long time before replying with a subconscious "Hey".
Today is different from the past. Mr. Chang is now famous.
With this slap, his light armor didn't need to be wiped off for half a year. This was called "drying".
Liu Zhirou walked a few steps and looked back. Chang Guiren greeted many cultivators along the way, but they all just smiled and nodded. This was the first time he spoke, and curiously said, "Your former confidant."
"No, we got to know each other when we were guarding the city last time. He is a fellow countryman of Lao Yi."
"oh."
The two of them were speechless.
Liu Zhirou stopped at the corner of the northwest city. He took out three yellow pieces of paper from his sleeves and put them down. He raised his head and squinted at the pieces of paper floating to the southeast. The fingers in his sleeves kept counting.
Chang Siguo guessed that Liu Baiyi was calculating the wind strength, and he saw a hint of hidden worry on Liu Zhirou's face.
When the spring breeze turns into rain, it is difficult to achieve the desired effect if you want to perform a fire attack.
Chang Si was not good at knowledge about astronomy, meteorology and wind power, so he could not help.
After just one turn, he saw that there were not many soldiers guarding the city walls on all sides. Most of them were probably resting in the barracks to conserve their strength.
There was a long sound of horns in the distance, and then there were echoes of horns everywhere, with great momentum.
"Haha, the Beirong people have just set up camp, so they are so impatient to attack the city."
Liu Zhirou sneered a few times and glanced at the city head casually.
Under the orders of their captains and uncles, the soldiers carried sandbags, arrows, shovels, small buckets and other equipment. There were very few rolling logs and gold sauce pots necessary for defending the city at the top of the city, which made the city no longer smelly. Xuntian.
Every not far away, there are wooden shields erected.
Hearing the faint sound of cavalry running on the ground in the distance, Liu Zhirou glanced at the sky again and said, "It will be dark in an hour, and it will rain heavily. The Beirong people can't afford the wind and waves, so go down to the city, stay." It’s not very interesting here either.”
After saying that, he actually turned around and walked down the city road on the city road.
Chang Siguo naturally followed him. He went to the top of the city seriously and shot down a few birds.
Walking to the Construction Supervision Office in the south of the city, he passed through the atrium that was still busy with sheds and came to the backyard room. Liu Zhirou took off his bamboo hat and hung it on the wall. The guard quickly boiled water on the stove to make tea, and another person brought a towel and used it in a copper basin. Fetch hot water for Liu Zhirou to clean her hands.
The attention to detail of a young master from aristocratic families is reflected in every detail.
"Don't worry, the Beirong people are full and want to show off their power, but there will be no results."
Liu Zhirou took out a square wooden plate from the drawer and asked with a smile, "Let's play a game of chess."
He also took out two boxes of red and black finger-sized marble chess pieces, engraved with words such as "pawn", "five", "what" and "guy". He turned over the square wooden plate and saw vertical and horizontal grid lines, which turned out to be for four-party chess. Checkerboard.
Chang Siguo thought that the water vapor on his body had completely evaporated when he entered. He couldn't understand that this was not a so-called war game like Go or Xiangqi, so he shook his head and said, "No."
"It's easy, I'll teach you."
Liu Zhirou pushed the red chess piece to the opposite side and explained to Chang Siguo the rules of chess and the techniques for playing chess without any further explanation.
Chang Siguo chuckled inwardly. This guy pretended to be calm on the surface, but he was still very nervous in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked a layman like him to play chess to distract his mind.
This reminded him of the allusion of a general in ancient China who also played chess during a war. After receiving the news of victory, he just said "Young men will destroy thieves" and continued to play chess with the guests.
What a wonderful difference.
But after the chess game, the ancient man named Xie was so excited that his clogs fell off his feet.
After Chang Siguo, he took off his bow bag and put it aside. He sat across the table and cooperated with Liu Baiyi to learn chess.
The rain outside the eaves gradually became heavier, and Liu Zhirou's chess pieces fell slower and slower.
The sound of fighting at the top of the city floated faintly, and the sky inside the house became dim.
The guard lit the candle and brought it over, but Chang Siguo waved his hand slightly to refuse. The guard took a look at his young master who was holding Yunzi in the long examination with his index and middle fingers. His expression was solemn like a statue. He silently extinguished the candlelight and retreated to the dark corner. Waiting everywhere.
Before you knew it, the room was completely plunged into darkness, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The sound of fighting stopped at some point, and the city was safe and sound.
"Sir, the rain has really stopped."
Another guard shouted in surprise from outside the door.
Liu Zhirou suddenly woke up, said "Oh" and complained, "Xin Wu, why don't you light up the lamp when it's dark?"
"yes."
Before the guard could light the candle, Liu Zhirou had already put down the cloud in his hand, stood up and walked out the door, smiling and saying, "Once the heavy rain passes, the wind will light up and the sky will clear up. Come on, Brother Chang, let's go to the top of the city to see the wind direction." "
All the haze and invisible pressure that was weighing on my heart seemed to disappear at this moment.
Still the graceful and handsome man.
Chang Si said "Okay" to the corridor, hung up his bow bag, and walked out in the dim light in front of him dressed in white. ,,
