Chapter 349
General Rong walked up and down to observe the two of them, but he couldn't find any flaws.

In this era, it is rare to see such finely crafted things, how could it be impossible to see any flaws?
Li Chenggu didn't think about explaining Wenji's identity to General Rong in detail, he just said something given by his friend in general, and General Rong took him into the city together.

The gate of Fenglan County is guarded by many people, making it difficult for others to enter.

Li Chenggu and Qin Ya wore masks and followed General Rong inwardly.

When he walked to the entrance, he was stopped by the guards guarding the city.

"Wait, General Rong, who are these two?"

The guards kept looking at the two people behind General Rong. Xu Hua once explained that they should pay more attention to the people around General Rong, maybe they are what they are looking for.

General Rong's expression did not change: "I recruited a doorman."

"Why didn't I come with you before?"

General Rong snorted coldly: "I didn't think before that you bastards can't even defend Fenglan County!"

The guard seemed a little angry, but he didn't dare to lose his temper at General Rong, so he could only bear it.

"Newcomers to the city must register, and you first ask them to leave their information."

The person on the opposite side was more powerful than him. No matter what the guards were, he didn't dare to confront him head-on. He could only stick to his duty and do what was required by his superiors.

General Rong didn't intend to embarrass them at first, but he couldn't let himself down.

These low-level guards are just following Xu Hua's orders, and he doesn't need to embarrass these people too much.

As for the identities of Li Chenggu and Qin Ya, they have already considered the identities of them long ago, and now even if they have to register, they can handle it freely.

After entering Fenglan, the remaining things are much easier to handle.

General Rong took the two of them directly back to the barracks. The place where they were stationed was not far from Fenglan County.

Even though King Yongding ordered them to recover the area occupied by Zhao State, the people guarding the frontier were still retreating steadily.

After Li Chenggu and Qin Ya entered the city, they began to rejoice that they did not bring Li Xin'er with them and wanted to pass through the city.

General Rong brought two people with him, but if he really brought another one, it would not be easy to end.

At this time, Li Xin'er was waiting for their news in a county town away from Fenglan County.

When they arrived at the barracks, General Rong arranged separate tents for the two of them, and told the soldiers that these were the counselors he had invited, and asked them to treat them well.

"I see that the morale of everyone in this barracks is not high."

As soon as Li Chenggu entered the camp, he felt the gloomy atmosphere inside.

When he led troops to fight in the past, he rarely saw the soldiers' morale so low.

Rong Jianjun sighed and said, "Zhao State has [-] elite soldiers, but we have less than [-]. In addition, Zhao State has more military equipment than us. It's hard to win."

Only then did Li Chenggu know the difficult situation on the border, and the situation he expected was not as bad as General Rong described.

Xu Hua didn't seem like he wanted these people to defend his family and country at all, it was more like he wanted these people to die.

Li Cheng asked, "When did the war start?"

General Rong glanced at Qin Ya's direction, and was a little embarrassed to say: "We just had a fight two days ago, and we were forced to retreat, so we set up camp here."

If it weren't for the war with Zhao Guo, the place where they are now must be farther ahead than here.

"If this retreats again, Fenglan County will not be able to hold on."

After all, Li Chenggu has been stationed here for many years and knows the terrain very well. This place is only thirty miles away from the county seat. If they lose another game, they will have to retreat to the city.

General Rong sighed, but did not speak.

Why doesn't he know?But to put it bluntly, they have no chance of winning at all.

He asked the court to increase the army's memorial, all of which were sent back, and they could only guard this place by themselves.

Li Chenggu frowned, Xu Hua's behavior was nothing more than forcing him to take action, wanting to see his actions.

It's just that Xu Hua himself doesn't know that he has moved now.

"Let the people in the city retreat first. If you don't leave, once the war starts, the people will suffer sooner or later."

"No. The guards in the city have long been ordered to die, and the people will never be allowed to leave."

Li Chenggu was angry in his heart, no matter how the fight between him and Xu Hua was, he never wanted to involve innocent people in it.

General Rong didn't say anything for a long time. It wasn't that he didn't want the people to retreat, it was because the soldiers guarding the city wouldn't let them retreat.

This is an order from the people in the capital.Nor can he defy.

Qin Ya didn't speak all the time, and only now did she open her mouth to say: "What will happen if you let the people leave the city privately?"

"I will probably become a thorn in Xu Hua's side, a thorn in his flesh."

General Rong twitched the corners of his mouth, smiling ironically.

If he used to be lonely and courageous, for the sake of the people, he would leave if he let them go.

But now that he has a family and a wife, he can no longer act recklessly and let them all take their lives.

Li Chenggu understood his situation, but he couldn't think of any other better way.

The people do not retreat, and there is no way for them to fight this battle.

Fenglan County's own terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the people leave and retreat to the city, they may be able to defend Fenglan County and repel Zhao's army. Next, stop thinking about it.

Qin Ya looked up at the two people, and said: "If the people can't be forced to retreat at will, then how about we give them sufficient reasons?"

General Rong asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

"If you lose a battle and let Zhao's army approach, the people will have to leave."

Qin Ya narrowed her eyes. When the time comes, no matter how powerful the guards are, so what?

In the face of the flames of war, the people of the whole city will definitely break through the defense line of the city gate. If they don't give way, how can this be done in the whole country?

Li Chenggu looked at Qin Ya with a slight smile: "This is a good way, but it's a bit risky."

General Rong did not expect that Qin Ya would have such a proposal.

He hadn't thought of letting Zhao Guo's people force them to retreat.

In the current situation, they are going to lose a battle, but it is really too simple.

General Rong said: "If you are afraid, you are afraid. If you don't hold it, Zhao Guo will directly attack the city. The consequences of that matter are unpredictable."

"If it is decided to let Zhao Guo approach, then we must do a good job of defense, and we cannot let Zhao Guo really invade."

Qin Ya naturally also thought of this question, such a way of hurting herself must be fully prepared.
