Lin Daiyu had been to this cave more than once, and she was curious about where Jia Huan wanted to take her.
Soon, Jia Huan led Lin Daiyu into a fork in the road.
This fork in the road became increasingly narrow, and at the end, you had to bend down before you could move forward.
The two of them suddenly slowed down, and after walking forward for a while, Jia Huan stopped and said:
"Sister Lin, come to the front."
Lin Daiyu came forward after hearing this. Jia Huan pointed to an inconspicuous place on the stone wall and said:
"Sister Lin, have you seen this? You can't tell it if you don't pay attention. If you pay attention, you can probably tell that this is a nine-square grid."
Lin Daiyu looked carefully for a long time, and then she saw a trace.
Jia Huan continued: "This nine-square grid, from left to right, goes down from one to nine. Sister Lin, please click on these numbers in order according to the date of your birth."
Lin Daiyu was curious, stretched out her hand, and pressed the numbers respectively as Jia Huan said.
The next moment, the stone wall in front suddenly creaked and slowly opened to both sides, revealing a portal.
Lin Daiyu was startled at first, and then asked curiously: "Brother Huan, where is this place?"
Jia Huan said: "Sister Lin, come first and speak."
After the two entered the portal, Lin Daiyu discovered that inside was a very simple stone room about the size of two houses.
Jia Huan told Lin Daiyu another mechanism. If you press this mechanism, the door will be closed.
Next, in the stone chamber, there was a mechanism. The way to open it was still Lin Daiyu's biological son.
What was opened this time was a diagonally downward passage.
After walking into this passage, Lin Daiyu discovered that there were three stone rooms below.
Of these three stone rooms, one is for people to live in, and one contains food, pots, pans and other items.
The other room is the place where the grains are reincarnated.
There is actually spring water flowing through the stone chamber, which is obviously introduced from the Qinfang Pavilion outside.
Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "Sister Lin, this is the backup plan I ordered people to leave behind secretly when we built the Grand View Garden."
"In the evening, I will ask someone to bring you more vegetables and daily necessities, which will be enough for you for half a year."
"Once the city is destroyed, I will let Mo Zhu and Mo Mei protect you and take refuge here."
"If Mo Zhu and Mo Mei are too late, you can take the two girls Zijuan and Xueyan and quietly come here to take shelter."
Hearing this, Lin Daiyu quickly took Jia Huan's hand and asked: "Brother Huan, what about you? Could you just leave me alone?"
Jia Huan held Lin Daiyu's hand with his backhand and said, "Sister Lin, if the city is broken, I won't be able to escape unless I can escape."
"Not only me, but everyone in the Jia family can't escape. Otherwise, I wouldn't have told this secret room to you alone."
Lin Daiyu held Jia Huan's hand tightly and said: "Brother Huan, if you are good or bad, how can I live alone? Life is in one place. Death is also in one place."
Lin Daiyu said it categorically and without hesitation.
Jia Huan hugged her again and said, "Sister Lin, nothing will happen to me."
"I just found a way out for you. If you notice something is wrong, you can hide here and wait for me to take you out."
"Don't worry, I will definitely come to pick you up. Think about it, how would I feel if I got caught up in something and something happened to you?"
"Just be nice, I guarantee you'll be safe."
Hearing this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but nodded heavily.
Then he said: "Brother Huan, I will wait for you well and always wait for you!"
Next, Jia Huan taught Lin Daiyu some more, until he confirmed that she was familiar with all the mechanisms, and then took her out.
After Lin Daiyu was settled, Jia Huan was half relieved.
…
A night of silence.
By the second day, the first line of defenses had been built outside the capital.
There are horse traps, horse snagging ropes, fences, etc. If they are not cleared away, the cavalry will definitely not be able to pass.
Through these fortifications, enemies can be defended outside the city.
Of course, Wang Ziteng is not stupid, and he definitely has no intention of fighting to the death with the 200,000 gold army.
The key is that on paper, everyone has 200,000 troops.
He couldn't stop fighting without fighting, so he would withdraw all his troops back to the city and huddle up to defend.
If he responds in such a mediocre way, how can he demonstrate his ability?
In Wang Ziteng's preset, the best result was that when Dajin's 200,000 troops pressed in, he found that Daxia had already taken precautions and built fortifications.
Seeing that they could not capture the capital quickly, they immediately retreated.
If this is the case, it is not known that he will be able to achieve full success, and even be promoted to a higher rank.
Of course, this is the best situation. Most of the golden soldiers will not retreat so easily.
Wang Ziteng's assumption was that the 50,000 soldiers and horses outside the city would rely on these fortifications to compete with the Jin army.
Before the Jin army rushed over, they calmly retreated into the city.
In this way, he can be considered a draw with the Jin army. As long as he holds on to the city, he can gain greater military success.
Next, Wang Ziteng carefully inspected the constructed fortifications and was basically satisfied.
Then, he ordered people to transport a large amount of defensive supplies such as arrows to ensure that nothing went wrong.
At noon, the officers and soldiers outside the city and the people in the capital suddenly felt the ground shaking slightly under their feet.
A dense and deep sound sounded.
At this time, everyone's expressions changed.
I'm afraid Dajin's 200,000 cavalrymen are coming.
They were still hundreds of miles away yesterday, but in one day and one night, they arrived in the capital!
The rapidity of this march made them all feel chilled.
In the palace, Emperor Chongkang stood up with a cold snort and said to the officials: "All my dear friends are following me to take a look at the city wall. I want to see what the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom look like."
"Could it be that they all have three heads and six arms? How could they come quietly outside the capital of Daxia? I would like to ask, what exactly do they want to do? Could it be that they want to start a war with me, Daxia?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Soon, Emperor Chongkang led all the civil and military officials out of the palace and headed straight to the north of the city.
During this period, the tremors on the ground became more obvious, and the sound of intensive horse hooves became clearer.
Obviously, Dajin's cavalry is getting closer to the capital.
When Emperor Chongkang and other officials rushed to the north gate city wall, the 200,000 Jin troops outside had already covered the sky and the sun, and rushed ten miles outside the city in darkness.
It is only ten miles away from the city wall and only five miles away from the outer fortifications.
Emperor Chongkang sat on the city wall and looked at the golden soldiers below the city.
It was difficult to see clearly from a distance of ten miles, but the evil spirit spewing out from the two hundred thousand cavalry was still frightening even from such a long distance.
Many ministers were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were trembling. (End of chapter)
