"Those who sneaked in were quickly discovered by the Shu people and killed in the snake path." Yan Pi spoke angrily from the camp outside the snake path.
On the contrary, Chang Sheng, who was sitting quietly, still looked calm.
"Yan Pi, it's been a few days."
"It's almost seven or eight days. According to the military advisor's estimation, the people of Shu are almost going to run out of food."
"That's not true. King Xu Shu is a smart man. When he finds himself trapped in a snake path, he will gather all the food and grass and prepare them carefully. I missed some things earlier... I should feed poison to those injured and dead horses first. of."
There was some pity in Chang Sheng's tone.
"Commander, please don't blame yourself. The current King Xu Shu is going to die from sleeplessness."
Chang Sheng nodded silently.
"By the way, Yan Pi, where is Chen Shuiguan?"
"That Qingfeng hasn't seen any action yet. Jiang Meng has already followed the military advisor's instructions and has slowed down the attack on the city a lot."
"He's a smart guy after all."
"Military advisor, do you think reinforcements will be sent from Dingzhou Lame Man's side or from other directions?"
Chang Sheng thought for a while and shook his head, "Probably not. The road is long and winter is about to come. Rushing for help is just in vain and the gain outweighs the loss. Furthermore, King Xu Shu is really dead, and there is still a young master in Chengdu. The lame person should consider Things will be very complicated.”
Hearing that the lame man would not come, Yan Pi smiled happily.
"Military advisor, that is to say, unless these Shu people can grow wings and fly out like birds, otherwise, it will be a dead end."
Chang Sheng was not happy, he nodded and started thinking again. He wanted to bring more results from this disaster in Xishu.
It's a pity that even in this situation, King Xu Shu in Snake Road still didn't give him any chance to explore the information inside.
…
"General Chen Sheng, are you just making this up? It doesn't make sense to me."
Standing on the wooden platform, it felt as if his tail had been stepped on. Chen Sheng was so angry that he scolded his mother. The "two mothers competing for love" he finally made up made people laugh.
"Brother Sheng, let's sing another round of Mei Sanniang." Xu Mu said with a smile.
His idea was not wrong. After so many days, even if there is insufficient food and grass, even if the temperature starts to get cold, the Shu soldiers trapped here, due to his mobilization, not only have Huang Qu'er, but also various fighting games, and the winner will get a piece of smoked horse. Meat.
Suddenly, there were cheers and cheers everywhere.
But Xu Mu understood that continuing like this was not a long-term solution. When we run out of ammunition and food, there will also be riots.
"My lord, there were another scouts from Beiyu today who sneaked into the snake passage to explore, but they were killed by us not long after they went deep." General Youbi walked over cautiously and reported the situation.
Xu Mu nodded. At this time, Chang Sheng should still be outside the snake path, waiting to give him a decisive blow. The purpose of searching for information is simply to find out the situation of their team.
Suddenly, Xu Mu suddenly had an idea in his heart. But after thinking for a long time, he frowned again. Even if he is pretending to be a hungry soldier, with his always victorious temperament, he will wait until winter has completely entered before he can take any action.
But in winter, how can they persevere when they are short of clothes and food.
"My lord, the Eastern military advisor is the most intelligent in the world. If he knew that we were trapped here, he would definitely find a way." General Bi comforted him.
"Of course." Xu Mu smiled. He needs a chance. If he has this chance, there is no doubt that he will be able to successfully counterattack.
But he also understood that under this situation, winter was approaching again. Even if Dongfang Jing wanted to rush to help, it was unlikely. After all, the road is long, and snow will soon fall in the area around here. If we rush to help, we may be trapped in the frost and snow.
Chang Shengxuan is extremely cunning at this point in time.
The best way is to transport supplies. Help their troops to survive hunger and winter snow first.
"Mu Yuan." Xu Mu raised his head. When he was in Muyunzhou, in order to deal with the Demon Queen, he asked Wei Chun to design and make a lot of wooden kites. Now placed in Muyun Prefecture's arsenal, there are estimated to be dozens of them.
He believed that with Dongfang Jing's wisdom, it was very possible to think of this. Moreover, winter is about to begin, and heavy fog is bound to occur. As long as the wind direction is used to identify the location of the snake path, and dozens of wooden kites are used back and forth, it is impossible to say that there is really any chance of survival.
Bolie, please.
Xu Mu raised his head to the sky, his eyes filled with excitement.
…
"Urgent report, urgent report from Dingzhou——"
Riding several fast horses and braving the cold air of winter, they hurried to Muyunzhou.
Fan Lu, the bearded man, walked out in a hurry. After hearing that his lord was trapped, he originally wanted to save him, but Miao Tong, who came from the river, quickly stopped him.
"A personal letter from the little military advisor."
Fan Lu opened it nervously, and his reading was a little incomplete, but he finally understood it, turned around hurriedly, and ran in the direction of Arms Library.
When I opened it and saw dozens of dusty wooden kites, my face suddenly showed ecstasy.
"Quickly, let someone prepare winter clothes and food and grass! Even spicy food must be prepared! By the way, my lord has been trapped in the snake path for a long time. Do you want to ask a flower girl to send it in with a wooden kite?"
A captain next to him hurriedly spoke to dissuade him.
"Forget it, Hua Niang won't send it away for now. We will find a way to send the grain, grass and winter clothes in first. Also, look for some soldiers who are light and smart. When the time comes, we can join the Mu Yuan camp."
Fan Lu, who had always been downcast, finally felt happy this time. The little strategist said in the letter that as long as these things are sent in, there is no doubt that he can help his lord and turn defeat into victory.
…
"Winter is coming." Chang Sheng stood outside the walled city and spoke in silence for a long time. "In my impression, King Xu Shu is not someone who just sits there and waits for death. He will most likely come up with a solution."
"Commander, do you want to attack from a flank?"
Chang Sheng hesitated and asked, "How many days has it been?"
"Ten days have passed. Military advisor, with the increase in troops, the Beiyu army on both sides of the Snake Road has reached nearly 80,000. It is enough to kill King Xu Shu in a flanking attack."
"Wait a minute. Qingfeng hasn't come out, and King Xu Shu doesn't have enough ammunition and food. No matter what, we can't be impatient about this matter."
Chang Sheng kept his face steady and did not become arrogant at all because of his advantage. He knew very well that in this situation, his opponent was not only King Xu Shu, but also Qingfeng and even a lame man. As long as there is a slight flaw, it is impossible to say that all previous efforts will be wasted.
Under the current situation, the general trend of Beiyu seemed to be on his back at this moment.
Staying calm and taking advantage of the situation is what he has to do now.
"Yan Pi, the fog is getting thicker, it's really going to be winter."
