"Hehehe..." Baiguan couldn't help laughing.But then he became nervous because of Emperor Jiajing's words.

"But... Although the Tartars in Beicheng don't have siege engines and arrow towers, we don't have barbed wire either?"

Luo Xin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, at the beginning, I asked the Ministry of Industry and Weapons Supervision to make a lot of barbed wire fences. As long as I am willing, a barbed wire fence will be erected in Beicheng overnight. The grassland coalition forces have no siege vehicles and arrow towers. This barbed wire fence is their nightmare. The capital can be completely defended."

Emperor Jiajing was overjoyed when he heard the words, and Xu Jie and other officials were also happy. After worrying for more than ten days, they can finally feel relieved today.It was rare for Emperor Jiajing to pat Luo Xin on the shoulder affectionately and said:
"Luo Qing, you have great achievements and great Ming! When the grassland soldiers retreat, I will reward you heavily!"

Luo Xin shook his head slightly and said: "Your Majesty, I am not worried about the grassland coalition forces attacking the city, but I am worried that the grassland coalition forces will bypass the capital and go deep into the hinterland of Ming Dynasty to burn, kill and loot."

Emperor Jiajing's face changed, the faces of all the officials changed, and the faces of the surrounding soldiers changed.

At this moment, all sober people realized that Luo Xin's speculation was likely to happen!
Do not!
It must happen!
Because the grassland had no food for several days, the food was not enough for them to eat on the way back to the grassland.If they returned to the grassland like this, they would probably starve to death on the way before returning to the grassland.

They couldn't attack the capital, so they had only one way, the only way, and that was to bypass the capital, go deep into the hinterland of Ming Dynasty, burn, kill and loot.

This posed a difficult problem for Emperor Jiajing.

If you don't send troops, you will be reprimanded by the people of the world, and Emperor Jiajing will lose the hearts of the people in Daming.Maybe there will be uprisings everywhere in Daming.

Send troops, just because Ming's soldiers will be the opponents of the prairie Tartars in the field battle?I'm afraid that as many people go out, they will be wiped out.By that time, most of the troops in the capital had gone out to fight with the grassland coalition forces, and were finally annihilated by the grassland coalition forces.Will the capital without soldiers guard it?
At that time, the capital will definitely fall, and Emperor Jiajing and all the officials will be slaughtered.

Emperor Jiajing frowned deeply, and the resolute Emperor Jiajing couldn't help hesitating at this moment, looking at Luo Dao:
"Luo Qing, do you have a good plan?"

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded.

"Speak quickly!" Emperor Jiajing's expression brightened.

"The only way is to completely defeat the grassland coalition forces, so that they have no strength to dare to go deep into the hinterland of Ming Dynasty, and can only escape back to the grassland."

Emperor Jiajing's face was stunned, and all the officials looked at Luo Xin in shock, and each of them thought to themselves:

"Is this Luo Xin crazy? Relying on the high walls of the capital, it was almost broken by the grassland coalition forces, but Luo Xin wants to take the initiative to attack. Isn't this crazy?"

Emperor Jiajing also felt absurd in his heart at this time. He felt that Luo Xin had never been defeated before, and he was a little carried away, so he showed displeasure on his face and said:
"Luo Qing, war is no joke!"

Admiral Yu on the side scratched his head anxiously, he naturally knew what Luo Xin was up to, this was a great opportunity for him to make meritorious deeds.At this time, seeing the different eyes of the officials and the displeased expression of Emperor Jiajing, he couldn't help forgetting the concept of hierarchy, and said:

"Your Majesty, Master Luo is sure!"

Emperor Jiajing was stunned, and looked straight at Luo Dao: "Luo Qing, are you sure?"

"Not sure!" Luo Xin shook his head.

Admiral Yu's complexion was dark, all officials' complexions were dark, and Emperor Jiajing's complexion was even worse:

"I'm not sure, why mention it?"

Luo Xin was silent for a while and said, "I'm not sure."

Emperor Jiajing's breathing was stagnant, and he said dumbfoundedly, "How sure are you?"

Luo Xin said softly: "Your Majesty, if you compare the combat power of our army with that of the grassland coalition forces, I don't have the slightest confidence. In terms of combat capabilities, we are indeed no match for the grassland Tartars."

Admiral Yu's face turned even darker, but Luo Xin ignored him, but pointed at the Ming soldiers on the top of the city at this time and said:
"Your Majesty, I believe that if Huang Taiji wants to bypass the capital and go deep into the hinterland of Ming Dynasty, he will act tomorrow. That is to say, tonight is the last chance to take the initiative to attack. Your Majesty, these soldiers on the city still have fighting power ?"

Emperor Jiajing and all the officials looked at the soldiers on the top of the city, and saw that most of the soldiers were covered in blood at this time, lying on the top of the city and fell asleep. His face was full of exhaustion.The faces of all the officials showed sadness, and Emperor Jiajing's face was also very ugly and said:
"Soldiers in this state go out to fight, it is better to say that they are sent to death."

"That's right!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "Your Majesty, you saw the state of the Ming soldiers on the top of the city. At this time, the grassland Tartars outside the city should also be in the same state. Even if they are stronger than our soldiers, they are also stronger. Limited. That is to say, the Tartars on the grassland don't have much combat power tonight. This makes me [-]% sure."

"[-]% certainty?" Emperor Jiajing laughed anxiously, "The grassland Tartars are tired, but our army is also tired. How can we be [-]% sure?"

"Your Majesty, I have also prepared a team. This team has never participated in the defense battle above the city. They are a real new force."

"Huh?" Emperor Jiajing raised his eyebrows: "Where did the army come from?"

"Shenshu Battalion! Shenshu Battalion has [-] cavalry, and I have never let them participate in the defense battle. This day is what I prepared for. With the [-] Shenshu Battalion, I have [-]% more confidence, so I have [-]% confidence. "

"Is it only [-]% sure?"

When Emperor Jiajing heard that the Baqian Shenshu camp had not moved, he couldn't help but look forward to it. The eyes of the officials standing behind Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Xin differently, and each of them secretly said in their hearts:

"This Luo Xin is really ruthless, not only ruthless to the enemy, but also ruthless to himself. Even when the prairie Tartars attacked the top of the city, they still didn't use the Shenshu Camp."

"Only 4000%!" Luo Xin said with a wry smile: "After all, we have 4000 cavalry here, while the Tartars outside have [-] left. However, I also prepared more than [-] thunderbolt bullets for the [-] Shenshu cavalry. For the [-]-odd thunderbolts, I have [-]% more certainty, so now I have [-]% certainty."

Emperor Jiajing's eyes lit up: "Luo Qing, you dared to cross the grassland with only 2000 men at the beginning, but now you have [-] cavalry, plus thunderbolts, is it only [-]% sure to defeat the [-] tired soldiers outside?"

Luo Xin's face showed embarrassment, he glanced at Admiral Yu who was waiting beside him, and said with difficulty:
"Your Majesty, those [-] cavalry are strong soldiers who have been trained hard by Mr. Ma. I don't know how many times they have fought with Mr. Ma and the prairie Tartars before. And the Shenshu Battalion..."
