I should marry the traitor

Chapter 74 What is Dong Bai planning next?

The sky was gloomy, it was drizzling, and it was cool.

The flags of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry fluttered in the wind, making people tremble with fear.

Three days later, the 100,000 Xiliang cavalry arrived as expected, a little later than An Xinlin had expected.

An Xinlin was not surprised by the 100,000 cavalrymen coming out in full force. After all, the total number of defenders in Zhongshan County exceeded 70,000, and it would be meaningless if the number of troops was smaller.

But she felt contempt for Dong Bai's marching speed. It took three days for all the cavalry to arrive. It seemed that the Xiliang Jiedushi's ability to command troops was not very good.

Of course, this is pure slander. It was because Emperor Fuyi's peerless magic weapon was too powerful that Lord Dong Bai had to lie on the table in the hall of Manhonglou for a whole day before starting the march.

Only a super large car like Lord Dong's can barely handle it. If it were a small person like Lord An, it would still be a question whether he could climb up.

If An Xinlin really wants to replace Queen Dong, then the seven and a half inches will be a common problem.

But An Xinlin didn't know that she felt that if she were allowed to lead the army, she would be able to attack Zhongshan County in two days at most.

Don't underestimate the time difference of one day. After all, An Xinlin has just taken over Zhongshan County City. It takes time to count supplies and arrange city defenses. Especially, most of the people in the city will not cooperate with him. One day less of rest and recuperation has a completely different concept.

But now, An Xinlin has already figured out everything about Zhongshan County City. She can be sure that her defenses are flawless. What do you, Dong Bai, plan to rely on to launch a storm?

Although An Xinlin cursed a lot when he first found out that he was tricked by Yuan Shao, after calming down, he realized that it was nothing to be afraid of.

It's nothing more than a case of "if enemies come, soldiers will stop them" and if water comes, earth will cover it. If Dong Bai really wants to attack the city, he will have to pay with human lives.

If she really used the army from her family to fill the gap, An Xinlin was very curious about what kind of trouble Dong Bai would face after losing his biggest trump card?
After all, the position Dong Bai was sitting in was much more dangerous than An Xinlin's. If he lost the military force he was proud of, he would probably be attacked by everyone.

It must be said that An Xinlin still has some expectations.

However, her expectations were destined to be dashed. The Xiliang army began to set up camp and rest outside the city of Zhongshan County, with no intention of launching a forceful attack.

On the first day, it is understandable that people were tired from the march and wanted to rest.

The next day, as you can understand, we rested and studied the city and its layout, and worked out a siege plan.

On the third day, no, is she sick? Will she fight?

An Xinlin didn't know whether he was crazy or the world was crazy. How could Dong Bai, a guy who knew nothing about military affairs, be the governor of Xiliang? And could he defeat the Western Barbarians?

Is this Western barbarian made of paper or clay?
"What is Dong Bai doing? Delaying time? Could she get reinforcements?" An Xinlin couldn't understand. She really didn't understand. This operation didn't seem like that of a seasoned governor. Instead, it seemed more like that of a rookie who was only good at talking about military strategy on paper.

The Origami King has been in charge of counting the population and wealth in the city these days. Under the threat of the Northern Di army, no one dares to disobey.

The statistical results are very good. Yuan Shao did not cause any damage to Zhongshan County City, and what was left behind was an extremely prosperous city.

So the Origami King was in a good mood and said comfortingly:

"Why should Lord An worry? We have a city to live in, and there are things to keep warm in the city. If Dong Bai wants to hold us back, we can hold her back."

"Why rush? Wait until the cold winter and freeze her Xiliang cavalry to death."

This is indeed the case, and this is also An Xinlin’s core strategic intention.

But that’s the problem. Even a fool like the Origami King can think of this problem, so can’t Dong Bai think of it?

The unknown is the most terrifying, just like Yuan Shao's 3,000 soldiers who looked like they were sending themselves to die, but actually dealt An Xinlin a heavy blow.

"Shi Ming?"

"The end will be here."

"Has the Xiliang Army's camping map been drawn?"

“It’s already been drawn.”

"Bring it up here so I can see it."

First of all, we must figure out Dong Bai’s strategic intentions. The former governor of Xiliang could not have been an incompetent fool. She must have had her own reasons for doing so.

Since there is a purpose, there will definitely be clues revealed.

The distance for setting up camp was well determined, showing his experience, which further proved that Dong Bai was not a mediocre person.
The layout was a classic one, with three sides surrounded and one side left, leaving An Xinlin a retreat in the north.

Why? An Xinlin didn't understand. Encircling three sides and leaving one behind was a way to prevent the remaining enemies from fighting desperately when they were in an advantageous position, so a way out was left for the defeated soldiers.

But now Zhongshan County has at least 70,000 troops, real 70,000 troops, not captured able-bodied peasants.

70,000 versus 100,000, and it’s a battle to defend the city. The advantage is on my side. Why is she acting like this?

An Xinlin couldn't understand. Of course, in fact, it wasn't just her who couldn't understand. Dong Bai couldn't understand either.

In the Xiliang army camp, even the guards of Dong Bai's central army camp were far away, and no one could enter or leave except Guo Shishi and Li Hexian.

The soldiers of Xiliang were no longer surprised, after all, Dong Bai also loved playing with women in the barracks before.

It’s just that in everyone’s mind, the women they played with were upgraded from ordinary beauties to General Guo and General Li.

After becoming the queen, the women Lord Dong plays with have become more sophisticated.

Of course, Lord Dong Bai is no longer the one who plays with women, he has become the one being played with.

After counting the military supplies, Dong Bai reported to Li Changge and expressed his doubts at the same time?

"Your Majesty, um, ah, I really don't understand."

"Huh, what don't you understand?"

"Hmm... That's why, Your Majesty, arranged it this way?"

"Of course, it is to leave a retreat route for the Northern Di Army, so that they can get out of Zhongshan County as soon as possible."

"Huh, but, um...it will be difficult for us to take over Zhongshan County City. An Xinlin is not a mediocre person."

"Phew, it's okay... they will leave on their own when the time comes."

"Hmm... Your Majesty, do you want to besiege the city until it runs out of food? But Zhongshan County doesn't look like it's short of food, and..."

Dong Bai felt a little weak. She could no longer speak and her voice was a little hoarse.

There's no way, counting the supplies is just too hard.

Li Changge let out a long sigh with a slightly tired look on his face. It seemed that the long journey had made him quite exhausted.

He looked up, and his gaze seemed to pass through the tent, looking far away at the Zhongshan County City.

"I know what you're worried about."

"The autumn harvest is over, and winter is coming soon. We didn't even bring winter clothes with us on the march."

"But it doesn't matter."

"They can't last that long."

"Soon, it will be over."

As if to confirm Li Changge's words, flames flickered in the Zhongshan County City at night and smoke filled the sky.

　Book title: If you don’t do it, the Tang Sect has plenty of monsters to do it!

　　【The Demon King】【Young Master of Tang Sect】

　　"In this world, what I, Tang Shaoqing, lack the least is monsters to do the work. If you don't do it, there are plenty of monsters to do it."

　　"Monsters are born to work for our Tang Sect. Monsters that cannot work for our Tang Sect have no value in existence."

　　"Don't worry about the sick monsters, just optimize them and replace them with new ones."

　　
　　You want me to tell you how to control the monsters like me, or you will destroy my Tang Sect if I don’t tell you?
　　Tang Shaoqing couldn't help but take a look at Tianji City, the monster forbidden area he had built between heaven and earth.

　　There is a demon-suppressing platform where one can improve their cultivation by working, a Nine Dragon Seal that can brainwash demon beasts, a demon-refining pot that can refine and strengthen demon beasts, a Kunlun Ranch that combines the bloodlines of demon beasts, and a magic weapon furnace that can produce magic weapons in an uninterrupted flow.
　　One by one, the monsters with amazing powers slowly put down their work and picked up their magic weapons that could destroy the world.

　　"Boy, you already have a way to die!"
