When Qin Fu saw that Xiruo Chanzhuo was so angry, he quickly smiled and said, "Marshal, please calm down and listen to me. We only have 10,000 troops in the city, so in order to divide the work well, I will temporarily lead 5,000 minions to defend the city. Tomorrow another five thousand men will come to change the guard."

Xi Ruozanzhuo looked at Qin Fu with a suspicious look on his face, and asked in a weird voice: "Why don't you see your boss coming? Are you in charge of Fengji Mountain now?"

Qin Fu chuckled, "The group of people tomorrow will be our masters who will stand guard."

After a peaceful night like this, Xiruozandra got up early the next morning. He finally had a good night's sleep last night, so he came to the tower in armor to patrol the city tower early this morning. The rest of his men had to Knowing that the marshal had already gotten up and going out for inspection, he didn't dare to neglect. Everyone put on their armor and didn't bother to have breakfast. They rushed directly to the east gate.

At this time, Tibetan generals, big and small, had gathered on the city wall, all following Xiruozandra, waiting for the marshal to issue orders. Xiruozhanzhuo looked outside the city and then looked at the horizon. The weather today was a bit gloomy. It seemed to be a prelude to rain. In such weather, the Han army would not attack the city! So he turned around and led his men to the command room in the tower, where the generals sat down to discuss.

When the generals saw that Xi Ruozanzhuo was neither sitting nor standing, they all knew that the coach was really undecided this time. After all, he was always known for his calmness and resourcefulness. This time the Han army actually made him restless. It seemed that The situation is really serious. The meeting was divided into two groups. The radical generals felt that they should take the initiative and could not wait any longer. Conservatives feel that we should continue to defend our own advantages. They believe that the various actions of the Han army are nothing more than forcing us to go out of the city to fight. If we really send troops to confront the Han army head-on, we will lose our original advantages. Before Everything you do will be meaningless, and doing so will probably serve the Han army's purpose.

In the small command room, the situation was already boiling over. Both sides held their own opinions, but the public was right and the mother-in-law was right, and no one could convince the other. Listening to everyone's quarrels made Xiruozandra, who was already restless, even more undecided, because now even he couldn't convince himself. Although he was the one who initially decided to wait for work, but now The situation seems to have changed subtly. Whether he should stick to the end or adapt to the situation is very difficult for the Tibetan coach.

"Report..." the messenger stood at the door and reported, "Lu Xiu is far away waiting for the marshal's decree."

The people in the hall suddenly became silent and looked at the coach.

Xiruozandhuo suddenly felt something in his heart, his eyes were cunning, he flicked his crimson cloak neatly, sat back in his handsome seat, and said loudly: "Please..."

After a while, a man with a long moustache and a fair complexion walked over. Although he was wearing armor, he looked extremely elegant. This man was Lu Xiuyuan. Although Xiruozandra only met him once, which was the day when he was recruited, he was extremely impressed by him. He had an elegant manner, extraordinary conversation, and always seemed calm about everything.

Lu Xiuyuan came to the lobby of the command room. The narrow command room was filled with more than a dozen Tibetan generals, all of whom looked at him up and down with angrily eyes. Lu Xiuyuan calmly came to the middle of the hall and bowed his hands to Xiruozandhuo and saluted, "I met the marshal in Lu Xiuyuan."

Xiruozandhuo chuckled and said, "You don't have to be polite, leader of the road, what? You brought your people here today, right?"

"Exactly!" Lu Xiuyuan said, "I'm here to ask for your instructions. If there's nothing else, I'll go to the tower to guard."

"This is not urgent! I have one more thing to ask the leader of the road!"

"Don't dare!" Lu Xiuyuan raised his hand and said, "If the marshal has any orders, please just tell him!"

Xiruo Zandhuo smiled bitterly and said: "The Han army has been harassing and attacking the city from time to time recently. You must be aware of the situation. May I ask what the leader of the road thinks about this matter?"

"Shanzhou City is extremely strong, and it would not be a short while before the Han army wanted to attack the city. So what they did was just trying to lure the snake out of its hole. So the marshal must have known the answer, how to deal with it!" Lu Xiu Yuan smiled secretly in his heart. It seemed that he wanted to test himself. His move was like luring a snake out of its hole. He thought that he had to be careful in his answers!

After hearing what Lu Xiuyuan said, everyone in the hall looked at each other in shock. Unexpectedly, Lu Xiuyuan could see so clearly, and they immediately felt that this bandit was something special.

Xiruozandhuo was silent for a long time after hearing this, then stood up again, walked to Lu Xiuyuan, looked around him, and then sneered: "I don't understand what Leader Lu said, I don't understand. So, do you think we should defend? Or...should we attack?"

Lu Xiuyuan was startled. This old fox was clearly testing. No matter what attitude he expressed at this moment, it seemed inappropriate. So he smiled bitterly and said: "This is a major military matter. I am just a surrendered general. How can I express my position appropriately?" Just listen to the marshal’s orders.”

"Haha..." Xi Ruozanzhuo looked up to the sky and laughed, raising his hand, "The head of the road will lead you down first!"

Lu Xiuyuan saluted the marshal and the generals present and then left.

After watching Lu Xiuyuan go out, the generals in the hall began to whisper to each other again. Xiruo Zanzhuo sat back down thoughtfully and continued: "From now on, there will be three posts in the morning, noon and evening, with five generals each guarding the city. If there is any disturbance, we will report it immediately."

It's nearly October in Shanzhou, and the air is crisp and clear in autumn. Coupled with the gloomy weather today, the city and outside seem extremely bleak. Garlei was patrolling today, so he was walking alone at the top of the city. He saw the road repairman in the distance looking at the arrow tower, and he became curious about him, so he came to the arrow tower and looked up. Shouted: "Road leader! Road leader!"

Lu Xiuyuan looked down. Although he was not very familiar with Xiruozandra's men, Garlei still knew about them. After all, he was Xiruozandra's confidant. So Lu Xiuyuan smiled at Garlei, and then slowly walked down the stone steps of the arrow tower.

After the two exchanged greetings, Garlei said: "I have heard about the power of Leader Lu for a long time, and I have always wanted to ask you for advice. I wonder if I will have this opportunity?"

"The general is joking. My marshal has arranged a place for me in Shanzhou. I have a lot of free time sometimes. If you don't mind it, general, you can come to my humble residence after the Han army is defeated. Let's have a few drinks together." Lu Xiuyuan said it very politely.

Garlei laughed loudly, "Brother Lu is really happy, so that's what we agreed on."

The two chatted for a while. Garlei looked at the sky and saw that it was already noon, so he asked him: "Has the road leader had lunch? Why don't we go and sit together?"

Lu Xiuyuan smiled and shook his head slightly, "I have already had lunch. General, you go ahead! It won't be too late for us to go together after someone takes over!"

"Why did the leader of the road have lunch so early today?"
