Fairy, please let me explain.

Chapter 643 Counterattack
The sudden deployment of the city defense formation inevitably caused Zhenxi City, a city that had not seen a battlefield for a long time, to fall into great chaos. However, as the generals in the city returned to their positions and orders were continuously issued, the efficient military control soon stabilized the situation in the city.

However, this is just the beginning of Xu Yuan's plan.

If the information provided by Mu Xingchen is correct, the other party will start attacking the city as early as two days later.

If one wants to hold on to the fortress of Zhenxi Prefecture City from under the hands of those saints, all resources in the city must be utilized to the utmost, whether it is the chivalrous groups and caravans stationed in the city, or the various war stocks of those aristocratic families, all must be requisitioned for military control.

And this is what really worries Xu Yuan.

Back in Beifeng City, the barbarian army was already at the gates of the city. The breast-bound princess, with the Beifeng Army completely loyal to her, suppressed everything with absolute violence, and it took her a lot of effort to unify everything in the city.

The current Zhenxi Prefecture City is nothing more than a pool of mud compared to the original Beifeng City.

The big families in the city have intricate ties with Zhenxi Prefecture, and even some middle-level generals come from these families. It is almost impossible to integrate everything within two days.

Fortunately, the staff of Zhenxi Prefecture had made contingency plans for the current situation long ago.

There are corresponding plans for how to requisition, how to dispatch, and how to compensate.

After learning this, Xu Yuan no longer had any intention of interfering.

Even though he had read a large number of similar cases in the internal references of the Prime Minister's Mansion and had the corresponding knowledge reserves, he still knew too little about Zhenxi Prefecture. Copying others could easily turn into empty talk, so professional matters should be left to professionals.

Therefore, at this most critical juncture, Xu Yuan became free and browsed some secrets of Zhenxi Prefecture alone in the Military Hall.

Li Junwu went to hold a pre-war meeting as planned.

Tian Ye ran to play with the dog. It seemed that she had a good relationship with the unicorn wolf in the past. He was also the only "old friend" of this evil woman left in this world.

As for Jia Yi, Xu Yuan would rather avoid seeing him for the time being.

It’s not because I was afraid of revenge from the waist-loving girl after tying her up for the whole day, but mainly because I felt there was no need to start a conflict.

But the tranquility before the war was soon broken.

Li Junwu is back.

Footsteps sounded in the quiet hall. Xu Yuan just raised his eyes to say hello, and saw the gloomy look on her face.

She looked at him, trying to maintain a gentle tone:
"I'm going to go to Xuanting Military Camp."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan's heart skipped a beat and he stood up subconsciously:
"Something went wrong at the pre-war meeting?"

Li Junwu turned around and said slowly:

"Lu Bozou, he didn't come at all."

Xuanting military camp.

After the Zhenxi Prefecture City was transformed from a military fortress into an economic hub, in order to prevent the soldiers from sparing the civilians, the military camps in the city were moved to the edge of the city, and high walls and pavilions were built to separate them from the residential areas.

According to usual custom, the fourth quarter of the morning should be the time for soldiers to enter the training ground for training. However, due to the sky defense curtain above the city, the entire military camp was filled with solemnity and was extremely quiet.

In the commander-in-chief's barracks, a gentle conversation passed over the sand table, passed the weapon racks, and softly sounded in the middle of the room.

"Mr. Wen, I need an explanation."

Lu Bozou, wearing heavy armor and a helmet, sat on the main seat and looked at the middle-aged man opposite him: "Why didn't I know that Zhan Xian'an was also one of yours before?"

The middle-aged man was wearing a black and white Confucian robe, holding a folding fan with a red lotus at the end, and chuckled calmly:
"Commander Lu, although the Marquis of Zhenxi is just a warrior, he is also a shrewd man. Let me tell you, what should we do if he finds out? Also, is it necessary to talk about this now?"

Hearing this, Lu Bozou lowered his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice:
"If he doesn't obey the imperial edict, the person behind that girl will definitely instigate him to attack me."

The middle-aged man surnamed Wen stared at the veteran behind the desk, still maintaining a tepid smile:

"Commander Lu, you don't think that if you go to the government office, the people who support the princess won't be able to see that you have betrayed the Marquis of Zhenxi, right?"

Lu Bozou frowned slightly, and his voice was filled with anger: "Boy, don't say anything careless. I have never surrendered to you, and I have never done anything to betray the Marquis."

The middle-aged man surnamed Wen sneered at this:

"Commander Lu, please stop lying to yourself. The fact that I am still alive and staying by your side is already your greatest betrayal of the Marquis of Zhenxi."

"boom!"

Lu Bozou smashed the table in front of him with his fist, stared at the middle-aged scholar who was no longer respectful, and said coldly:
"I have said from the beginning that as long as the Marquis is alive, I will not obey your orders."

The middle-aged scholar surnamed Wen suppressed the smile on his lips, walked forward slowly, and said in a low voice:
“I know that Commander Lu is unable to change the current situation in Zhenxi Prefecture and wants to leave a way out.

“But now this escape route has been cut off.

"You should have seen that the man who ordered the princess to kill was extremely cruel and murderous. He could kill the commander of a town, Zhan Xian'an, first and then report to him. If you accept the imperial edict and go, you will definitely be detained in the government office. Do you think your fate will be better than Zhan Xian'an's? I am saving your life."

Hearing this, Lu Bozou was silent for a long time. His old face was tired, and his calloused fingers tapped the back of the chair lightly:
"Since you are so resolute, isn't it the same as committing suicide? Although the girl's cultivation is still shallow, she can already strip away the power of my military formation."

The middle-aged man surnamed Wen smiled slightly:
"So you only have one way to go now."

Lu Bozou's eyes narrowed:
"what?"

The middle-aged man surnamed Wen showed a strange smile on his face:

"Raise the army, break the city defenses, and welcome the saint."

"Om-"

As soon as he finished speaking, in the sight of the middle-aged man surnamed Wen, the old general sitting in the main seat suddenly disappeared like a ghost.

The other party appeared again and was already in front of him.

The feeling of weightlessness and the suffocation caused by the tightening of his neck made the middle-aged man surnamed Wen instantly realize that he seemed to be being picked up by the veteran in front of him by the neck.

Lu Bozou's eyes were hidden in the shadow of his helmet, but the cold murderous intent had already permeated every corner of the barracks.

Seeing this change, the middle-aged man surnamed Wen's face gradually turned red, but the smile in the corners of his eyes remained unchanged, and he transmitted the message with his source energy:

"Commander Lu, a wise bird chooses a tree to rest in. Your loyalty to the Marquis of Zhenxi was shattered the moment you became jealous. Now this is just an opportunity given to you by Wen. Moreover, breaking the formation does not mean breaking the city. We just want the life of the princess."

"Boom!"

Lu Bozou threw the middle-aged man surnamed Wen to the ground, turned around and walked back to the main seat, and said coldly:
"I have guarded Zhenxi City for my entire life. If you mention it again, I will die."

The middle-aged scholar surnamed Wen rolled over ten feet on the ground, struggled to stand up, rubbed his swollen neck, and said with a chuckle:

"Wen knew you would say that, so I have prepared another plan for you."

Sitting back in the main seat, Lu Bozou stroked his wrist armor and stared at the other party without saying a word.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man surnamed Wen also said to himself:

"When you went to the government office to ask for an explanation, I had already spread a piece of news in the city that our princess had an affair with the Desert Goddess and was bewitched by her to welcome the wolf into the city."

As he said this, he pretended to look back at the sun corona in the yard outside the door, then said with a smile:

"According to the time, this news should have spread throughout the city, and the senior generals in your Zhenxi Prefecture should have also received this news."

"."

After listening carefully, Lu Bozou was silent for a while and asked:
"What do you want to say?"

The scholar surnamed Wen spread his hands, then clasped them together and bowed:
"That princess will surely come to your Xuanting military camp soon. I have summoned all the generals in the city in your name. When the time comes, you only need to question her in public and ask the princess to share the formation and activate the Soul Locking Formation to verify whether Linlang has entered the city!"
