Chapter 569 Siege (2)

"How is it? Has the news been sent back?" The Eighth Prince asked in a deep voice.

It was already the fifth day, and Tartar was still fifty miles away with his usual speed of tortoise crawling. At this speed, it would take ten days and a half months to start the fight.

"No news at all!" Li Zeqi said depressedly, his cavalry!I don't know how much it has been damaged, and I just sacrificed in vain without returning.

"The food and grass can last for a few days!" The Eighth Prince turned to Wei Daxun.

Wei Daxun sighed, "If there is no supply, there will only be about five days left!"

The atmosphere became extremely dull for a moment, and no one spoke again.

At this moment, Ye Rui jumped up in a hurry, "We can't wait any longer! If they don't come, we will go!" She turned to the Eighth Prince and said, "The last general is willing to be the vanguard and lead the musket battalion to meet the enemy!"

At this time, everyone looked at the Eighth Prince in unison. Yes, what Ye Rui said is also a solution, but if you rush forward like this, it is easy to be attacked by the other party, but if you wait like this, you don't know what it will cost when.

Are you going forward?Or continue to try to contact the rear?Everyone is waiting for the Eighth Prince's decision!

Finally, the Eighth Prince let out a long sigh, and said in a deep voice: "The order will be passed on, today we will rest for a day, all the staff will rest, and we will move forward tomorrow!"

It can be seen that the Eighth Prince has made his own choice, and it is no longer possible to wait for work with ease, and they can only go head-to-head.

The battle was imminent, and everyone became a little nervous. Everyone got up and walked out of the camp, as if they wanted to make the final deployment.

Just as everyone was leaving, the Eighth Prince suddenly said: "Wei Daxun, please stay!"

Wei Daxun hurriedly turned around, bent down and said, "The last general is here!"

But the Eighth Prince sighed and said: "Tomorrow there will be a tough battle, so we must provide enough food today to ensure that everyone is full!"

When Wei Daxun heard it, the Eighth Prince planned to finish the journey that he took in five days in one day!Is this a hasty march?

He hurriedly took orders and said: "Yes, the humble official must urge you to continue!" After finishing speaking, he looked up at the Eighth Prince.

But he said with a tangled face: "Be sure to strengthen the defense tonight, especially the food and grass, and take strict precautions against sneak attacks!"

Wei Daxun looked up at the prince from the capital, he was actually a little nervous!Otherwise, it would not be so detailed.

That's right, I'm used to the kind of comfortable life in the capital, even if I read a few military books, I'll still be a little nervous when it comes to fighting in battle.

When Ye Rui opened the curtain and returned to the tent again, there was no one else in the room, but she saw the Eighth Prince standing alone in front of the sand table, frowning and looking at the rolling sand dunes, but the flag in his hand seemed to have no place to rest .

Finally, hearing his long sigh, as if he had made a great determination, he inserted the flag in his hand directly next to the opponent's flag, and the two small flags were blown by the wind and stuck together, flapping each other rustle.

This time, it was Ye Rui who walked beside him and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't worry, I'm here!"

"I don't know what's going on with Xuanfu?" Unexpectedly, the Eighth Prince was still worried about Xuanfu.

Ye Rui didn't worry so much, she shrugged her shoulders pretending to be relaxed and said: "It should be fine! Nian's family, my master, and the few battalions you asked for reinforcements, combined have more troops than ours, so it shouldn't be too late. Something will happen! And isn’t the enemy right in front of us? Why are you worried about them?”

"They cut off the connection with our rear, I'm afraid there is some purpose! The current Xuan Mansion may have already approached the city!" The Eighth Prince frowned.
