Hearing Li Xiaolan's words, Lin Quqi was stunned: "In order to get rid of Brother Qin, you would not hesitate to attack a city? Are the Beidi people crazy?"
The expression on Qin Cheng's face could not be told whether it was pride or helplessness. She said seriously: "Not only is Beidi not crazy, but he must have carefully considered it."
"Beidi spies have penetrated every aspect of Daliang. Even though the black lieutenants under the sage have tried their best to arrest the Beidi spies, and the number of people who are executed every month ranges from a few to dozens, it is still difficult to resist Beidi's attack. Horrible intelligence-gathering capabilities.”
"Beidi has gained insight into Daliang's military strategy. Combined with the losses on the front line and the changes in the war situation, he has concluded that Qin Feng is worth more than an army. If the Daliang think tank can be eliminated, even if one army is lost, it will be a hundred thousand dollars. It's beneficial without any harm. Now that these more than 10,000 troops have marched into the hinterland of Daliang, they have no intention of leaving alive."
The more Lin Quqi listened, the more frightened he became.
Could this be a game between the two supreme commanders?
Before the National War, the two sides just tested each other and consumed each other, which was already so tragic.
One day, when the main forces of the two sides confront each other and the war officially begins, what kind of scene will it be like, with mountains of corpses and seas of blood?
Lin Quqi swallowed his saliva and did not ignore the key point of Qin Cheng's words. He was shocked and said: "In other words... Beidi people already know that Beixi County is a bait sent by Daliang?"
Qin Cheng nodded, his eyes showing an unprecedented severity: "If Beixi County is captured, for Beidi, it is equivalent to getting rid of the Daliang think tank. Although it is a tactical failure, it will be a strategic gain. In Daliang, It is said that if the three parties of hussar, chariot, and frontier troops encircle and annihilate more than ten thousand troops under Chen Si's command, it will severely damage Beidi's effective forces. As for Beixi County, it can be recaptured with a snap of the finger, which will bring more benefits and less harm."
"If Beixi County is defended, for Beidi, it will be tantamount to trial and error before the war. It will completely change the strategy, abandon the impregnable west side, and instead attack the east front with all its strength. For Daliang, it will also severely damage the morale of the Beidi army. "
Lin Quqi nodded feebly and smiled bitterly: "I understand, whether Beixi County can be defended or not will be profitable for both countries. As for the life and death of the Qin family, which is connected to Beixi County, no one knows care."
Although it is cruel, it is a reality that must be faced.
From the beginning, Beixi County was completely abandoned by Daliang, and the last bit of value was squeezed out of it.
When the three sides of the border army encircled and annihilated the Beidi people, they could make a big announcement: "Under the wise leadership of the saint and the bloody fighting of the generals, we finally defeated the enemy and recaptured Beixi County."
At that time, the saint captures the hearts of the people, the generals receive meritorious service, and the soldiers receive rewards.
As for the life and death of the people in Beixi County, it ultimately depends on the saying, "One general's success will lead to thousands of bones drying up."
So far, only Qin Feng is still transfusing blood to Beixi County, putting the Qin family's life and death and the people's life and death as the top priority, and blocking Beidi's iron hoof no matter the cost.
Lin Quqi suddenly clenched his fists and asked sonorously: "Brother Qin already knew the principle of 'I am a fish and he is a swordsman', why did you still..."
Before Lin Quqi could finish speaking, Qin Cheng interrupted bluntly: "The Qin family is in Kyoto, and everything Feng'er is familiar with and values is in Kyoto, at the feet of the emperor... He also has no control over this matter. From now on, Don't mention it again! Feng'er handed over Beixi County to you before leaving, which is a sign of his trust in you. Don't ruin his hard work just because of his own impulse!"
How could Lin Quqi not understand? Wherever there is hard work, it is clearly about wealth and life.
In the entire Kyoto, who doesn't know that Qin Feng is favored alone and lives a life like a fairy?
But who understands that he is walking on thin ice and will be doomed if he is not careful?
Lin Quqi took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. Knowing that he had no choice, he quickly walked out of the door and shouted: "Come here, send my order to mobilize the whole city to fight Beidi to the death! I will fight to the death with Beidi!" If Mr. Lin is still here, Beixi County will be there! If Beixi County is lost, there is no need for Beidi to take action. I, Mr. Lin, will kill himself to apologize!"
With an order, the Tianji camp guards, government soldiers, civilians, all strong men rushed towards the city wall.
Arrows, kerosene, and rolling wood are all ready.
Having learned the lesson from last time, the wooden fork used to push the long ladder to attack the city was lengthened and reinforced.
Each Tianji camp guard guarded an arrow stack.
The experienced government soldiers with outstanding personal bravery were temporarily organized into the guard team, while the remaining government soldiers and civilians were scattered everywhere. Since the city gate has already been reinforced, all it takes is to defend the city wall with all its strength. Even though the entire Beixi County is said to be 'impregnable', everyone knows in their hearts that the chance of defending the county is extremely slim.
The Beidi army is ready to go.
Eleven thousand men, divided into three battalions.
The main siege force consisted of five thousand men, all infantry, equipped with large shields, bumpers, and ladders.
The right army and the cavalry battalion, each with 3,000 men, were stationed on the east and west sides of the county to guard against any possible Daliang reinforcements.
Chen Si specifically chose to start the war today because the clouds were thick and it was pitch black after nightfall. He could only rely on torches for lighting, which undoubtedly made the defense of Beixi County more difficult. As long as any fish that slipped through the net invaded the county, a gap could be opened. Then it spread like a dam bursting!
Chen Si slowly raised his right hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly said: "Qin Feng, let me see how long your Tianji camp guards can last."
After the words fell, his right hand also fell, and the thunderous sound of war drums resounded throughout the sky.
At the same time, a large group of people gathered at the gate of Pingyao County.
The dozen or so people headed by him are all scribes and gentry in Pingyao County.
As the motorcade drove into the gate, a powerful voice resounded through the entire porch: "A common man, Zhou Yufu, led by Pingyao County officials and squires, respectfully welcome Lord Qin."
The carriage slowly stopped, Qin Feng lifted the curtain, exposed his head, and glanced outside.
The big shots in Pingyao County have all gathered together. Such a large battle is enough to prove that the entire Pingyao County attaches great importance to Qin Feng's arrival.
However, it was getting late at this time, and there were women and brothers behind him. The top priority was to find a place to stay. Qin Feng ignored everyone's etiquette and just asked lightly: "Are you ready to stay in the hotel?"
Zhou Yufu quickly made an invitation gesture with a respectful expression on his face: "The common people have emptied the largest restaurant in Pingyao County. Please come with Mr. Qin and his family."
Zhou Yufu and a group of squires led the way, and soon a two-story restaurant appeared in front of them.
Qin Feng and Shizi got out of the car first, followed by the others.
Along the way, the prince Li Zhang tried his best to run towards the ladies' carriage. Although he was repeatedly stopped by Qin Feng, his evil intentions persisted.
At this time, as Liu Hongyan and the three girls got out of the car one after another, Li Zhang's eyes widened and he was amazed: "The appearance of the three ladies is really the same as that of gods!"
