"Okay, okay, you'll know when you see me. My lord will probably be here tomorrow night, and you'll see him then."
Wang Hao stretched out his hand and said,
"Please go and have a rest. I will ask someone to arrange food and accommodation for you."
Mo Xun smiled and said,
"That's not necessary. Thank you, General Wang. We have a place to live, so we won't bother General.
We arrived yesterday. We originally planned to assassinate the commander of the county magistrate at night, but you also arrived last night and occupied the county seat, so we thought of continuing to hide. If there is an enemy attack, we will help. "
Mo Waner pulled Mo Xun's sleeve, frowned and said,
"No, we don't have much money left. We can't afford to stay in an inn for a few days. If he takes care of food and housing, we can still save money.
Let me tell you, Nie Chen also wants to attack the enemy, and we also want to kill the rebellious ones. Why not just follow them, eat, drink and live as much as possible, which can save a lot of money. "
Wang Hao laughed and said,
"Okay, okay, you are welcome to come, the door of our military camp is always open for righteous men like you.
By the way, Ashin, you go to the treasury to get two hundred taels of silver and give it to a few righteous men. They have helped us, so it is our duty to repay them. "
A guard was immediately ordered to leave.
Mo Xun said quickly,
"No, no, thank you for your kindness. We cannot accept your money. Mo Xia is free. If we accept money, it will be an employment relationship. We will have to follow your orders. This is not good and does not suit our Mo family. rules."
Wang Hao smiled and said,
"Look what you said, it is also our rule to repay a favor. We are all Feng people, and we all work hard together. You Mo Xia alone cannot overthrow the regime of the rebel Mingxuan.
You'd better follow us. Only by fighting together can we maximize our combat effectiveness. We all have the energy to work together. People in the wind are all connected. "
Mo Waner also said quickly,
"Yes, yes, everyone is a fan, so of course we have to work hard together."
Then, she whispered to Mo Xun,
"You are stupid. You don't even want to give me any money. Two hundred taels of silver can buy a lot of food, enough to feed the victims."
Mo Xun smiled bitterly and said,
"Okay then, let's go to the inn to pick up our things, go live in the military camp, and check out the room. It just so happens that we haven't paid the rent for tomorrow yet."
Wang Hao asked people to arrange them, and he himself began to command the army to clear the battlefield.
The Korean troops outside the city also came over with white flags to clean the battlefield and carry away the bodies of the fallen soldiers.
On the top of the city, the bodies of the Korean soldiers who died on top were thrown down and taken away by the people below.
This was the only time when the two armies could live in peace. It was impossible for the defenders on the city to attack the corpse collection team below, because the corpse collection team had been beaten away, leaving them with only two options.
Or just open the city gate, clean up the corpses yourself, and risk being attacked by the enemy.
Or just ignore them and let the corpses rot and stink, smelling the strong smell of corpses every day, and then a plague will breed and the entire army will fall ill.
Wang Hao's army is cleaning the city and continuing to prepare for war.
Over at Renjun's camp, they were also burying pots to make rice, cutting down wood, and building ladders.
It's calm here, but the capital in the south is no longer calm.
Outside the north gate of the capital, a fast horse came galloping and stopped within a stone's throw of the north gate.
"Who? What do you do?"
The defenders on the top of the city shouted,
Because of the war, the city gate was closed earlier. Now in the evening, the city gate has been closed.
The man on the fast horse was carrying a baggage on his back, and inside the baggage was a square box.
The man threw the baggage over and landed heavily on the ground. He pointed at the defenders above and shouted,
"Listen to the rebels above, this is a gift from our Lord Nie Chen to your dog owner Mingxuan. Send it to Mingxuan quickly!
If you dare to open it privately, Mingxuan will chop your heads off, but don’t blame me for not warning you! "
After saying that, the man rode his fast horse and ran quickly towards the north.
The soldiers on the top of the city looked at each other and could only call for the general.
When the general heard about it, he asked a man to go down with a rope and carry the package back up.
"What is this?"
The general looked at the package and murmured,
"Could it be the surrender letter Nie Chen gave to our Majesty?"
"Would you know if you open it and take a look?"
A commander laughed.
"You fart. Didn't the spy just say that if we open it, the emperor will chop off our heads? Forget it, since it was sent to the emperor by Nie Chen, let's send it over. This thing is not something we can see at our level."
After speaking, the general carried the package himself and ran towards the palace at high speed.
At this time, Mingxuan was in the harem, having dinner with his queen and the prince Mingwen.
Their family relationship is still very good, and Mingxuan is particularly caring and fond of his two legitimate sons.
Normally, Mingxuan would bring clear instructions to him when he went to court, asking him to handle official affairs and teach him carefully.
It's just that the three people at this time didn't look very good.
Putting the polite Mingwen on the chopsticks, he sighed and said,
"Hey, I'm not used to having one person missing at the dinner table. I don't know what's going on with my second brother. A few days ago, he said he lost the battle and had no food and grass. He was surrounded by Nie Chen. Now he doesn't know how he can escape. Is there any more?"
Mingxuan shook his head and said,
"It should be said that there is not. If he had escaped from the trap, he should have joined Ren Jun long ago. It has been three or four days now and there is still no message back. He is probably still trapped."
Hearing this, the current queen said unhappily,
"Then you can still eat? If you don't hurry up and lead the troops to rescue my son, Nie Chen is so vicious. If my son does anything bad again, I won't be able to spare you, old man!"
"Okay, okay, hasn't Ren Jun already gone? There are 180,000 troops and 20,000 reserves in the city now. If I take them away again, you will be the one who gets beheaded.
Don't worry if you leave it to Ren Jun, he is the most outstanding commander on our side. "
At this moment, the eunuch outside the door came to report that a general brought a gift from Nie Chen to the emperor and asked to see him.
"Nie Chen? Give me a gift? Why is he so mad? Bring him in and have a look."
"Slave obeys the order!"
The general was not allowed to enter the harem. After a while, the eunuch came in holding a bundle.
Mingxuan looked at the baggage and suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and shouted,
"open to take a look!"
The old eunuch quickly opened the bag and then opened the lid of the box. A strong smell hit his face. When he looked down, the old eunuch screamed and collapsed to the ground in fear.
"What scared you like that?"
Mingxuan walked over, looked down, and immediately turned pale, as if his brain had been hit hard. He vomited blood and fell backward!
