Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 324 Hope
"My sister was worried that her husband would not be able to cope with it, so she sent her concubine to help her husband."

"Husband, this is the concubine sent by my sister, not me who sneaked out. Husband, you can't blame me!"

When Zhu Xiuyuan heard it, he believed it immediately.

At this time when the city of Jiangzhou was in danger, Dong Shuyu, regardless of his own safety, sent the only "war general" in the palace to support him. This actually makes sense.

Because Dong Shuyu is such a person!
He is very considerate of others, especially the Dong family and him.

"Well, madam, you stay here and hold down the battle for the soldiers defending the city."

"If there are any Yan soldiers who attack the city wall first, please be sure to kill them or bring down the city wall!"

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded in agreement and assigned Dong Shuzhen a task.

In fact, in the past two months, Dong Shuzhen and Na Yan Dashan have been practicing martial arts with the old beggar, and they have already achieved quite a result.

The Dong Shuzhen of today is no longer the Dong Shuzhen of two months ago.

The combat power is quite strong, even if he acts as a general guarding the city, he is fully capable of that.

"it is good!"

Dong Shuzhen was beaming with joy. She was wearing pink armor and had a petite but tall figure.

Wearing a black cloak, Hunter looked majestic. At this moment, she really looked like an indomitable general!
However, at this time, for some reason, Dong Cheng also climbed onto the tower.

From a distance, he shouted: "Wonderful son-in-law!"

It was Dong Cheng's voice, and Zhu Xiuyuan recognized it immediately.

At the same time, Dong Shuzhen also heard it clearly.

"Ah...husband, save me..."

Dong Shuzhen was frightened, like a mouse seeing a cat.

With just two words, Dong Cheng scared the majestic female general and hid behind Zhu Xiuyuan.

And she held his hand tightly, shrunk her neck, and stuck out half of her head.

She even cried out "Husband, save me" in a sweet voice.

There is no trace of an upright general!
She looked like an active young lady in a boudoir, but the armor looked inappropriate on her, it was too inconsistent.

Zhu Xiuyuan smiled and patted Dong Shuzhen's helmet twice.

Then he faced Dong Cheng and greeted him, cupping his hands and saying, "Why are your father-in-law here?"

Dong Cheng, as the governor of Jiangzhou, although he did not personally visit the battlefield in this battle to defend the city, he commanded the soldiers defending the city to resist the incoming Yan army.

But it won’t work without Dong Cheng.

Because Dong Cheng is in charge of logistics affairs.

Such as the supply of ordnance and weapons, the maintenance of stability in the city, the distribution of food and other living materials, as well as the posthumous affairs of the city defenders, state soldiers, government officials, and civilian husbands who died in the battle, the comfort and compensation of their families, etc.

Dong Cheng is required to make overall arrangements.

It means "Zhu Xiuyuan is in charge of the outside world, and Dong Cheng is in charge of the inside." In fact, Dong Cheng is also very busy.

But I don’t know why I boarded the tower at this time.

"Oh, virtuous son-in-law..."

Dong Cheng returned the gift and was about to speak when his eyes suddenly caught sight of Dong Shuzhen.

She was hiding behind Zhu Xiuyuan, petite and petite, her head drooped, as if she was a daughter accepting scolding.

It was extremely inconsistent with the pink armor she was wearing.

Dong Cheng only caught sight of it accidentally and looked away.

However, he felt something was wrong at the first moment, so he quickly took a closer look...

Who is this person if not his little daughter?
"Zhen'er?"

Dong Cheng immediately made a serious face, and his whole aura changed.

He became majestic and oppressive, his eyes were like lights, staring at Dong Shuzhen.

"Dad." Dong Shuzhen knew she couldn't hide, so she had to take small steps, turned around from behind Zhu Xiuyuan, and stood side by side with Zhu Xiuyuan.

"Zhen'er, if you don't stay well at home, why are you here? And you...where did you get this set of clothes?"

The corners of Dong Cheng's mouth trembled, and even the beard under his jaw moved.

Zhu Xiuyuan knew that Dong Shuzhen had always been afraid of Dong Cheng, so he helped explain: "Father-in-law, Shuyu was afraid that I didn't have enough manpower here and would be too busy, so he sent my wife out..."

"Father-in-law, please rest assured. My wife has been studying martial arts with her master for a long time. She will have no problem dealing with this situation."

Dong Cheng nodded and his face softened slightly: "Since the wise son-in-law said so, let's do it this way. Now that the city of Jiangzhou is in danger, Zhen'er should do something to help you."

"Got it, Daddy."

Dong Shuzhen was overjoyed, but she didn't dare to show it on her face.

He just silently retreated behind Zhu Xiuyuan, vaguely avoiding Dong Cheng's sight...

After dealing with Dong Shuzhen's matter, Dong Cheng just remembered his reason for coming: "My son-in-law, the Yan army is attacking the city from all sides, and our defenders and supplies are not much. This battle is related to the survival of Jiangzhou... "

"To be honest, I can't calm down. I can only feel at ease when I climb the tower and watch the movements of the Yan army with my own eyes."

"Hey, no matter what the final result is, whether it's the city being destroyed or the city being defended, I have to see it with my own eyes..."

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded and welcomed Dong Cheng into the tower.

He also told him that after the battle began, he must not stick his head out of the city wall and only hide behind the battlements...

After Dong Cheng was settled, Zhu Xiuyuan stood on the tower and looked at the Yan army three hundred steps away.

The battle drums are still thundering in the Yan army's position, and all the more than [-] Yan troops have not yet reached their destination...

Zhu Xiuyuan's expression tightened, and his brows narrowed slightly.

The battle, this was the most brutal battle that Jiangzhou City had ever encountered!
But at this moment, Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly thought of what he had said to coax Dong Shuzhen just now.

Travel around the world.

Take a panoramic view of the mountains and rivers.

Taste all the delicacies from all over the world.

See all things in time...

To grow old together.

Having a bunch of kids...

Although these words were just words he said casually in a momentary impulse, they were just to make his wife happy.

It can be considered as a "sweet talk".

However, when he faced more than [-] Yan troops, Zhu Xiuyuan thought in his heart: "If Jiangzhou City can be defended in the end and the Yan troops are defeated, then...it will be okay to turn those 'sweet words' into reality... …”

The more Zhu Xiuyuan thought about it, the more his heart moved.

If you can travel around the mountains and rivers without any worries, it means that the world is worry-free...

Traveling around the mountains and rivers without worries is such a simple sentence.

But for now, it can only be a hope, a beautiful hope...

After thinking about it, Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly became determined.

He thought in his heart: "Even if there is no reason, just for that hope, just to fulfill the promise I made to my wife, I will win!"

"Repulse the Yan army and restore peace to the world!"

……

Just as Zhu Xiuyuan was feeling excited and excited, the long-lasting thunder and thunder of the drums in the Yan army's position suddenly stopped.

"The drums of the Yan Army have stopped!"

"Lord Sima, Pegasus came to report from the east, south and west city gates. The Yan army has arrived [-] steps away from the three city gates. They are lined up in order and have prepared long siege ladders, battering rams, siege ladders, etc. About to attack the city!"
