There are 600,000 troops outside, and Hu Meilin is not Sun Shiwan.

Jiang Li nodded, obviously having made up his mind.

"If I can't come back, Zhenyuan City will be handed over to my eldest brother."

She hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

"If the city is breached, I hope that Senior Brother can return to the capital."

As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly and her voice became even lower.

"I'm sorry, I failed to live up to Senior Brother's expectations."

At first, she didn't understand what Li Lingge meant by the white hat.

But after her mother reminded her, she already knew.

The eldest brother had been planning for a long time just to help her ascend to the throne.

It’s a pity that she didn’t seize this opportunity.

Li Lingge did not consider his own retreat, but asked with some concern.

"Will it be too risky?"

As if he had thought of something, he asked again.

"Is the city running out of food and grass?"

Jiang Li naturally knew that this journey was dangerous, but she had no choice.

"Morale is more important than food and fodder."

Li Lingge was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

After all, he had never commanded troops, so he ignored things like morale.

The death of Zhao Desheng today boosted the morale of the soldiers at Gongbu Gate, but what about the other city gates?

Zhenyuan City has been defending for more than a month. Facing an army of 600,000, even if the psychological defense line has not collapsed, it has been stretched to the limit.

Jiang Li walked slowly to the window and whispered in a serious tone:

"The soldiers below are not fools. Even if I don't tell them, they can probably guess what the end of Zhenyuan City will be."

She sighed and continued.

"Now even among my personal soldiers there are people talking about the loss of Zhenyuan City. Who can guarantee that there won't be people who are thinking of rebelling and surrendering?"

After all, people are individuals. When the minds of most people in a group begin to get out of control, that is the beginning of the camp roar.

After all, people always have a sense of luck. What if they can survive?

Li Lingge spoke in a heavy tone, word by word.

"So, you want a victory to stabilize the morale of the troops?"

"It's not a wish, it's a necessity." Jiang Li stared into Li Lingge's starry eyes, "A night attack is our only chance."

After a moment of silence, Li Lingge reminded.

"But if the night attack fails, it will be counterproductive and Zhenyuan City will be finished."

This is a desperate move. If it fails, the morale of the army will be completely broken.

Jiang Li took a few breaths quietly, then suddenly smiled.

"My eldest brother has said today that he would die in battle in Zhenyuan City, so why should I not dare?"

As if she was recalling her childhood, her eyes became softer.

"If it weren't for my senior brother, I would have died in that cold palace."

Li Lingge looked at Jiang Li's smiling eyes and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Perhaps his father and brother were the same back then.

Even though he tried to stop them and warned them, they still went to the border battlefield without hesitation.

"Lingxi."

Following Li Lingge's call, Lingxi stepped out of the Seven Star Sword.

Even if Li Lingge didn't say anything, Lingxi knew what he was going to say.

"Can I not go?"

Li Lingge ignored Lingxi's words and gave the order directly.

"Follow her and bring her back safely."

Jiang Li's cultivation level was only at the second level, so he was still a step behind Hu Meilin.

The most important thing about the night attack is to defeat Hu Meilin’s main camp.

It is impossible to really expect a few thousand people to kill hundreds of thousands of people.

Back then, Zhang Babai also rushed into Sun Shiwan's central military camp and killed everyone indiscriminately.

The main attack is a surprise attack, the cavalry charge is unstoppable, and then they retreat after the charge.

It is impossible for hundreds of thousands of troops to be in one camp.

There are only about 10,000 people in Hu Meilin's central army camp. If we kill Hu Meilin in the chaos, we will be halfway to success.

Therefore, Lingxi must go with him.

Otherwise, Jiang Li would surely die.

"Big Brother, she can't go."

First level realm!

Jiang Li could tell at a glance that this was Li Lingge's last trump card, and if the city was broken, she could only rely on this sword spirit to take her senior brother away.

Li Lingge turned and looked at Lingxi.

"This is the master's order."

Jiang Li frowned slightly. The master's order?

Li Lingge took off the wristband and handed it to Jiang Li.

"Put on this armor."

As soon as Jiang Li picked up the wristband, he immediately felt the power contained in it.

“This is a Taoist weapon!”

The armor she was wearing was just a spiritual weapon, and the Taoist armor was a priceless treasure for those who led troops.

"No, I can't have it."

Li Lingge raised his hand to block Jiang Li's hand.

"I'm not giving it to you, I'm borrowing it."

Without giving Jiang Li a chance to refuse, he continued.

"You have to give it back in person."

Hu Meilin is best at archery. Only by wearing the Flame Dragon Armor can you possibly block Hu Meilin's arrows.

Jiang Li opened his mouth, not knowing how to refuse.

Looking at Li Lingge's determined eyes, she knew she couldn't refuse.

"it is good."

Li Lingge nodded with satisfaction, and then asked.

"When are you planning on leaving town?"

"In another two hours, before dawn, Xue Yue and I will each lead a thousand men and charge into the Nanyue and Xizhou camps respectively."

After saying that, Jiang Li stood where he was and showed no intention of leaving immediately.

Seeing her standing there in silence, Li Lingge became curious.

"Anything else?"

"I, actually, that."

Jiang Li knew that she might not be able to come back, so she wanted to tell Li Lingge her biggest secret.

But for a moment, she didn't know how to start.

Although she has secretly liked the senior brother for so many years, what if the senior brother has always treated her as just a brother? If she tells this secret, will the relationship between the two of them never be the same as before?

Moreover, the eldest senior brother has been carefully planning for so many years in order to help her ascend to the throne.

If the eldest senior brother knew that the person he wanted to support was a woman, would it be too hurtful to him?

Li Lingge: (O_o)??

"fine."

Jiang Li shook his head and turned away.

However, she just remembered that this was her own house when she walked out of the room.

She took a deep breath, turned around and walked back to the room.

At this time, Li Lingge was about to return to his room, but Jiang Li pushed the door open and almost bumped into him.

Their eyes met, and Jiang Li closed the door and took a step forward.

"Big Brother, I have a secret that has been buried in my heart for a long time."

Li Lingge took a half step back, probably having guessed what Jiang Li wanted to say.

"What secret?"

Jiang Li turned to look at Lingxi and Di Ying without saying anything.

Seeing this, the two of them immediately tactfully left the room.

The two people outside the door looked at each other, then walked to the window tacitly, and one of them poked a hole in the oil window paper.

The two men moved in unison, bending over the oil window paper and squinting into the room.

inside the house.

Li Lingge and Jiang Li's throats rolled at the same time. Jiang Li held the long knife tightly in her hand. If someone didn't know better, they would think she was going to kill someone.

The moment she held the knife, she inexplicably felt a surge of courage in her heart.

"Big Brother, I am actually a girl."

Li Lingge blinked his eyes, then pretended to be surprised when he realized what was happening.

He also didn't expect that even though Chu Feng had passed away, he would still have to act one day.

"What, you are!"

"Big Brother, I have liked you for four thousand eight hundred and fifty-two days."

Jiang Li mustered up his courage and said what had been buried deep in his heart for more than a decade.

"Junior brother, no, Junior sister."

Looking at Jiang Li's beautiful, burning eyes, Li Lingge was a little flustered for a moment.

Of course he knew that Jiang Li was a girl, but he didn't go so far as to treat Jiang Li as a brother. He just never thought that any ambiguous feelings would arise between the two of them.

After all, Jiang Li’s character has always been normal, unlike Lingxi and Lin Yao whose characters are so outrageous.

But now the other party actually confessed directly!

Jiang Li's grip on the knife became tighter and tighter.
