"What do you mean?" Jiang Ze was a little curious and a little excited.
"That's the literal meaning. This is not a transaction, but my own feelings. This year, you said you have been restraining, so why am I not the same."
"It turns out that what I felt all along was not wrong..."
"Yes, our feelings for each other are not wrong. The fault lies in our complicated relationship. But I don't want to deceive myself anymore. Today I want to take this step." Gu Nian walked towards Jiang Ze and slowly leaned towards Jiang Ze. Ze's arms.
"You know, this step may make us doomed..." Jiang Ze frowned. He felt that he couldn't do this and shouldn't do it, but he seemed to be unable to restrain himself.
"Even if I am doomed, I still want to be willful this time..."
Gu Nian had already finished talking, and Jiang Ze naturally couldn't bear it. He soon fell completely, and his hands unknowingly reached into Gu Nian's clothes...
The next day, Jiang Ze was radiant and rushed to Xiao'er City with a group of cavalry.
On the wall of Zhonger City, Li Xiuwen watched Jiang Ze leave, feeling very happy in his heart. But after being happy for a few seconds, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
Uneasy, Li Xiuwen began to inquire about Gu Nian's whereabouts.
But he searched all morning and couldn't find Gu Nian. However, he still didn't make any publicity or ask anyone to help him find it. Instead, he looked for it on his own.
"Are you looking for me?" Suddenly, Li Xiuwen heard a familiar voice behind him.
Li Xiuwen immediately turned around and found Gu Nian behind him.
"Yes, I've been looking for you." Li Xiuwen replied.
"What do you want from me?"
"Thank you for persuading the eldest brother. The eldest brother has already gone to Xiao'er City to find the second brother."
"Is this what you want to say?"
"No, I still want to know, nothing happened between you and eldest brother last night, right?"
"No." Gu Nian smiled.
"Okay, thank you, second sister-in-law." Li Xiuwen was really relieved now.
In the evening, Jiang Ze took Luo Erhu back to Zhonger City.
Li Xiuwen saw that the expression on Luo Erhu's face was very relaxed and normal, and he felt indescribably happy inside.
"Second brother, you are finally back."
"I'm definitely going to come back. Let's go. Let the three brothers have dinner together. I'm almost starving to death."
"good."
The three brothers have become as harmonious as before, and the barriers seem to have disappeared.
But this situation did not last long. The next day, Wei Sheng led a transport group of thousands of people to Zhonger City.
This time, Wei Sheng brought a letter from Wei Jing.
Jiang Ze rushed to the city gate and read Wei Jing's letter. After reading it, he glared at Wei Sheng, as if he wanted to eat him. But Jiang Ze did not take any action, but stared at Wei Sheng, angry but unable to express it.
As for Wei Sheng, he looked very proud with an arrogant smile.
Seeing this, Luo Erhu took the letter and read it.
Looking at it, I finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that Wei Jing had the final say on the material supplies for Jiang Ze's army. If Jiang Ze embarrasses Wei Sheng, or intentionally harms Wei Sheng, then Jiang Ze's army will not receive any resource supplies, no new armor, no new weapons, no new siege equipment, and the most important thing is, There won't be any rations.
This time, the transportation group brought by Wei Sheng had a large amount of supplies, including food, grass and military equipment, which was enough for Jiang Ze to use for a few months. This was intended to give Jiang Ze a sweet spot so that he could understand that as long as Wei Sheng was not embarrassed, logistics would be There will be no problem with the guarantee.
Jiang Ze clenched his fists, took a deep breath, forced out a smile, and said to Wei Sheng: "Bringing so many supplies can be regarded as making up for it. Your previous mistakes will not be pursued for the time being."
"Oh, then I have to thank you." Wei Sheng's attitude was not good.
At this time, Luo Erhu shouted anxiously to Wei Sheng: "Xiao Sheng, pay attention to your attitude. Things are finally reconciled. Can you learn from this?"
Wei Sheng had a bad attitude towards Jiang Ze, but he was kind to Luo Erhu. He immediately changed his attitude and said to Jiang Ze: "Thank you, Captain."
That night, Jiang Ze was in a bad mood. He picked up his phone and sent a text message.
On the other side, Gu Nian glanced at the text message, immediately put the phone in his pocket, and then said to Luo Erhu: "I am on duty tonight."
Luo Erhu was washing his face. He didn't think much about it and replied easily: "Oh, go ahead."
Just like that, Gu Nian left his residence and secretly headed to the place agreed with Jiang Ze.
Ten minutes later, Gu Nian flew to the rooftop of a dark building and had a private meeting with Jiang Ze.
Jiang Ze will tell you Gu Nian about the unhappy things that happened today.
After hearing this, Gu Nian felt a little strange: "Didn't you investigate? Wei Sheng and Wei Jing are not really cousins. Why does Wei Jing want to defend Wei Sheng?"
"Wei Sheng is just a chess piece. Wei Jing is deliberately suppressing me. The intrigues and intrigues in the officialdom are more complicated than you think. Wei Jing hopes that I will stand in the same camp. If he forms his own faction and insists on his own way, he will not It will make me bigger.”
"We are all from the same country. I didn't expect it to be so complicated."
"In the future, there will be more complicated things, but fortunately, I have you to talk to me." Jiang Ze said and kissed him...
On the other side, the capital of the Chu Kingdom, Yecheng.
The king read Chu Donglai's military report and then threw it directly on the desk. He didn't seem to be very interested.
Chu Ba was curious and picked up the military newspaper and read it.
After reading it, Chu Ba asked: "Brother, Chu Donglai seems to be very anxious, why do you look so indifferent?"
"Chu Donglai made a fuss out of a molehill. Ever since I let go of the secret service, I knew that Jiang Ze would cause trouble at the border. Their purpose was obvious, which was to force me to transfer the 100,000 troops who were assisting Zhao back to the border. Ercheng. Once I transfer my troops back, other countries are likely to transfer back as well. By then, Zhao will be isolated and helpless, and the capital will sooner or later be in civil strife."
"What do you mean, brother?"
"Don't worry, Jiang Ze only has 20,000 people, so he can't make any big waves. Also, I feel like I should put some pressure on Chu Donglai. They are all soldiers, and they are quite large in number. Are you still afraid of Jiang Ze? "
"Indeed, the combined strength of Nuer City and Dal City is at least more than 30,000. Both in terms of military strength and siege equipment, they are far superior to Jiang Ze."
"Well, I wrote a letter in my own hand. If Jiang Ze is not defeated within a month, the mayors of Nuer City and Dal City will be replaced by someone else."
The next day, King Chu's letter arrived in Chu Donglai's hands.
When Chu Donglai saw it, he broke out in a cold sweat and held an emergency meeting.
In the previous meeting, there were still some war and defense factions. Now that the king has a piece of paper, he can only fight, and he must win.
After a heated discussion, they decided to clear out the troops in the small town of Dalian and concentrate them, gathering five thousand people. At this time, Nuer City had 15,000 troops.
After that, five thousand troops were left in Nuer City, and all the remaining troops went to Dal City.
As a result, the strength of Dal'er City has reached 30,000, and the siege equipment is sufficient. Even if the entire army attacks Zhong'er City, it is not impossible.
But the city lord of Dal City is still more careful. He must choose a suitable opportunity to attack and must not attack rashly.
On the other side, Jiang Ze did not know whether it was because he was upset or because he was nostalgic for the company of a beautiful woman. Instead of rushing to take new military actions, Jiang Ze held banquets every day with big fish and meat.
This matter quickly spread to Dal City.
Daler City immediately convened a high-level meeting. Some people said that the time has come. Zhonger City has reported banquets for seven consecutive days. There is plenty of food and fish every day. The defense is quite lax and can be attacked by force.
But some people say, could this be a scam?
The Lord of Dal City also thought about whether there might be any problems. But then he thought about it, the king had already said that if Jiang Ze was not captured for a month, Wu Sha would not be protected.
In this case, even if there is a risk, we have to fight.
In this way, Daler City mobilized all its troops and sent 30,000 troops to march towards Zhonger City.
On the other side, Jiang Ze stood on the wall of Zhonger City, holding a letter and smiling: "The time is ripe, the exciting moment has arrived."
Half a day later, 30,000 Chu troops came to the city and launched a general attack on Zhonger City.
The defenders of Zhonger City also began a fierce defense, and the forts on the city wall never stopped.
After holding on for six hours, Zhonger City ran out of ammunition and food, and many large holes were smashed into the city walls and gates.
The Chu army rushed in and quickly took control of the city walls and gates.
But the leader of the Chu army felt very bad, because after entering the city, he found that the number of defenders was very small, and Zhonger City was like an empty city.
Soon, the leader of the Chu army received an urgent message.
After the leader read the emergency report, he was immediately stunned. He could not believe it in his dreams that Dal City had actually fallen.
It turned out that when the Chu army stormed Zhong'er City, the fierce army that had secretly attacked Chencang was also attacking Dal City.
The number of defenders in Dal City was too small, less than a thousand, so they held on for about seven hours and finally fell. After the city was broken, the city lord of Dal City was assassinated by Jiang Ze.
After the fall of Dal City, tens of thousands of civilians inside became hostages.
There were more than 50,000 civilians in Dal City before. Later, because the martyrs occupied Zhong'er City, Dal City began to relocate civilians as a precaution. But in the end, 10,000 civilians were left behind to maintain the operation of the entire city. After all, Dal City can be considered a medium-to-large city. If there is no one to operate it, the entire city will soon be scrapped.
Now, these ten thousand people have become hostages.
The next day, Liejun issued a threat to the Chu army in Zhonger City. If Zhonger City did not surrender, ten thousand civilians would be killed.
The Chu army in Zhonger City was so angry that almost every soldier was filled with indignation. They even asked to attack Dal City.
But the leader of the Chu army was not a fool. He knew that there must be a trap here, and there would probably be an ambush on the road. Even if there is no ambush, we can't attack by force once we reach the gate of Dal City. Although the big holes have not been filled yet, the Liejun must have taken precautions. A forceful attack is definitely not possible. In addition, the Liejun has more than 10,000 civilians in control, so it is better not to act rashly.
