Chapter 221 Escape Again
"Master, there is a team of cavalry moving towards us quickly in front of us. Judging by the uniforms, they should be our soldiers. I guess the crown prince is coming to pick you up!"
Ye Fei looked excitedly at the team of dozens of people from far to near, and a cloud of dust was raised where they passed.
"Mother!"
Li Chengmu hurriedly stopped the horse, jumped off the horse and ran in front of Xia Jing, raised his head and looked at her excitedly: "Mother, why are you here? You didn't tell me first, did you want to surprise your son? "
Xia Jing looked at Li Chengmu's body once more, and he became darker and stronger, and finally her eyes stayed on his smiling face with big white teeth, and she said in a rather disgusted tone: "We haven't seen each other for so long, why are you so tired?" Or is this stupid?"
"In front of the mother, the son wants to keep this pure smile forever and be a filial son. Do you like the mother?" Li Chengmu didn't care at all, and asked for praise with a smile.
The smile on Xia Jing's face also couldn't help but widen, she nodded: "I like it, no matter how you change and grow, you are still my little five!"
Seeing this kid standing in front of her unharmed, Xia Jing felt relieved.
The generals following Li Chengmu saw that the interaction between mother and child was almost done, so they stepped forward to salute one after another.
"I will meet the Empress at the end!"
Xia Jing brushed across the faces of several generals, and said with a smile: "It's been hard these days, everyone, running around with Xiao Wu, you have worked hard to regain Yingchuan, you have worked hard!"
On behalf of everyone, Long Yutian stepped forward and clasped his fists and replied: "Leading troops to fight is the duty of the last general, and should not be praised by the empress!"
Several captains of the personal guards following Xia Jing also stepped forward to salute Li Chengmu, the two sides greeted each other for a while, and the team started again.
When they arrived at the camp outside Yuzhou City, it was already dusk.
This night Li Chengmu arranged a simple dinner, wanting to clean up Xia Jing, but she refused.
It must have been hard work to rush all the way here. Xia Jing just wanted to lie on the bed and didn't want to move. She ate dinner exhausted and went to bed early after washing.
At dawn the next day, Xia Jing was woken up by the sound of horseshoes, got up, washed and walked out of the tent.
"Mother, you woke up. How did you sleep last night? Are you used to staying in the barracks?" After Li Chengmu got up, he came over to see if Xia Jing was awake. He didn't expect to see Xia Jing just as he walked to the tent. walked out.
Xia Jing looked at him with a smile, and said, "A night without dreams!"
"That's good." Li Chengmu glanced at Ye Fei who was following Xia Jing, and found that the maid hadn't followed, so he solicited, "There are many places where it is inconvenient to come to the military camp. It must be inconvenient for the mother to come out without a maid. Do you need your son to buy two maids to serve you?"
Xia Jing looked down at the military uniform on her body, and refused: "No, do you think the queen mother needs a maid to wait on her in this outfit?"
Li Chengmu circled around Xia Jing in a very face-saving manner, and said loudly, "Tsk tsk, the queen mother is dressed in a military uniform, and she is heroic and heroic. She is not inferior to a man, and she is more beautiful than a man! It's just, you wear this military uniform There is no conflict with being served!"
The general who followed behind turned his head. He really didn't want to see His Royal Highness, who was usually majestic, looking like a middle-school boy in front of the queen.
Xia Jing didn't entangle him with this matter, but let him lead the way, and everyone went to Wang's account for breakfast.
After breakfast, Xia Jing had time to understand the current situation.
Long Yutian gave Xia Jing an overview of the current situation, and then he asked, "What do you think of the current stalemate between the enemy and us?"
"The rebels are waiting for work at leisure, and they have city defenses. It stands to reason that they should have the ability to fight us a few times. Now they are hiding in the city of Yuzhou. I think they have some scruples."
Xia Jing looked at the generals present as she spoke, and continued to analyze: "The rebels usually like to bluff, and if they have 30 or soldiers, they will boast that they have millions of elite soldiers, and they claim to have soldiers stationed in Yuzhou City. , I guess half and half, the maximum number in the city is no more than , so it makes sense for them to avoid the battle!"
After hearing this, Long Yutian thought for a while and asked: "Your Majesty's analysis is very correct, but judging from the current situation, it is not a long-term solution for us to besiege but not attack. If we keep besieging, the consumption of food and grass is an astronomical figure. Sorry."
Xia Jing looked at him and said, "We can't afford it, and the rebels can't afford it either. They should be more stressed than us!"
Long Yutian: "That's according to your mother's will."
Xia Jing raised her eyebrows at everyone, "Let's just encircle and not attack. The crops in the crop fields outside the city are almost ripe, and they can be harvested in a few days. We don't have to wait for these few days. From the afternoon onwards, we will send out part of the soldiers to harvest the rice and wheat in the fields."
Long Yutian suppressed the excitement in his heart, and looked at Xia Jing excitedly: "Your Majesty, what you mean is that there is not much food and grass in the city, and the rebels must be more anxious than anyone else to see the food that is about to mature being harvested by us. If they don’t leave the city, we’ll have the food for our next battle. If they leave the city, we’ll take the opportunity to beat the dog in the water and take Yuzhou City by the way.”
"Wonderful, wonderful, the empress's plan is very clever!"
-
Next, the rebels in Yuzhou City discovered that the "persuading surrender" operation had not stopped for the past few days. At noon, after a dozen or so riders returned, they never came to change shifts.
"How is this going?"
"Haha. What else can happen? They must have persuaded us in the city for a few days. Seeing that we are indifferent, they gave up!"
"Give up so easily?"
"That's right, after a few days, the voice should be hoarse, but we don't care about them, we just watch the show. If they can't hold on, of course they give up!"
Some rebels didn't believe it, thinking that the imperial soldiers and horses just went back to rest at noon, and they would definitely come to the city on time in the afternoon to talk about interesting and new things in the imperial barracks!
Only this time let them down!
The imperial soldiers did not come to the city again, and some sharp-eyed rebels noticed that there were many imperial soldiers busy in the farmland in the distance.
It took a long time for them to react when they saw the clearing that had been harvested.
"Zhuo! They gave up to persuade them to surrender, so they went to harvest grain!"
"Hurry up and report to the general, the soldiers and horses outside the city have gone to our rice fields to destroy food! Damn, there was not much food and grass in the city, but now the grain outside the city is about to mature, but let the enemy take the lead. What should I do?"
"Oh!"
In the government office of Yuzhou Prefecture, Lu Leshan punched the table, and the table moved a little bit due to the impact, and all the tea in the teacup on the table splashed out.
"Too deceiving!"
The staff asked anxiously: "General, what should we do now?"
Withdrawing from Jiankang to Yuzhou, I thought how I could enjoy a year of happy life, but I didn't want the autumn harvest to come, and the imperial soldiers and horses came after me again.
Hearing this, Lu Leshan turned his head abruptly, stared at him coldly, and asked, "Why didn't you remind me a few days ago to set up the wall to clear the field? As an aide, the general couldn't think of things, even you can't think of it? Or, are you a bloody idiot?"
After hearing what he said, the staff turned pale and pale. It was because he didn't think carefully about this matter, but is there a need to be so shameless?
Lu Leshan looked at the staff's pale and white faces, snorted coldly, pursed his lips and said nothing!
Really pissed him off!
Thinking of the vast farmland outside the city, and a large amount of food being robbed by the imperial soldiers and horses in such an open manner, he panicked!
"Damn it, who is more like a thief!"
His lieutenant asked at this moment: "General, shall we let them harvest the grain that should belong to us?"
The staff stood by and nodded desperately, yes, what is the difference between this and a robbery?
Lu Leshan calmed down his emotions: "How long can the grain and grass in our city last?"
The lieutenant and his staff looked at each other, and the lieutenant replied: "About ten days, at most half a month!"
Originally, the grain and grass in the city could last until the autumn harvest, but due to the sudden arrival of the imperial soldiers and horses, they were caught off guard, and the grain outside the city was too late to harvest.
Lu Leshan frowned: "Observe for two days first."
Even if the soldiers and horses of the imperial court are divided, half of them will go to the autumn harvest, and the remaining soldiers and horses are not something they can fight against.
After much deliberation, this is a dead end!
I don't know how to deal with it, or else, he also led the team to flee to Runan?
Although he turned around thousands of times, Lu Leshan didn't show any panic on his face, which made the lieutenant general and his staff unable to figure out what he was thinking for a while.
In the next few days, Lu Leshan had one more thing every day, and this one thing was to persist from morning to sunset.
As for what to do, it is natural to sit in the gate tower of the city gate every day, watching the autumn harvest outside the city.
Seeing the court soldiers and horses harvest one mound after another, Lu Leshan's heart was bleeding. Those were all food, life-saving food!
"When will the reinforcements from Wuping, Ningping, Nandun and Ruyang arrive?"
The deputy general was slightly taken aback when he heard the question, and looked at the extremely arrogant court soldiers and horses outside the city, and replied: "The following counties have heard about the situation in Yuzhou City, and they are all in urgent autumn harvest, waiting for the grain to be harvested. , may come to rescue Yuzhou City, but at present we can only save ourselves temporarily, and we will wait for a while."
After Lu Leshan heard this, no matter how angry he was, he was helpless. Now that he dared not even open the gate of Yuzhou City, how could he reprimand the officials in the county below?
Yuzhou city is thinking about how to save itself, and Xia Jing outside the city is also thinking about how to give the city a bottom line, speeding up or forcing them to go out of the city to fight!
After pondering for a long time, Xia Jing decided to explore the real situation in the advanced city before making any plans.
Autumn is crisp, and even at night the moon is bright and the stars are thin.
Xia Jing nimbly climbed up the city wall, turned into the city of Yuzhou, confirmed the approximate location of the government office, and ran towards the government office.
Trapped in Yuzhou City, Feng Zhang was bored, and at night it was even more lonely and sleepless. He was sitting on the roof watching the moon, but he never thought that someone was flying past the roof at a high speed in the distance.
Seeing the other party's agility, Feng Zhang's eyes lit up with interest, and he threw the flagon in his hand to the ground, and the man shot out like a sharp arrow.
After chasing for a while, Feng Zhang realized that he was not wearing night clothes. He was wearing a moon-white robe with wide sleeves, and he was speeding under the moonlight. If anyone looked up at the top of his head, he would think it was a fairy from the sky who came down to the mortal world. up.
Turning into the backyard of the government office again, Xia Jing found the study with ease.
This time was different from the last time she came, only Lu Leshan was drinking in the study.
From Xia Jing's point of view, Lu Leshan was already drunk, but he was still eating and drinking, and at the same time cursed from time to time.
As for who to scold, it must be the court soldiers and horses who caused the current predicament, as well as the generals of the court soldiers and horses, especially Li Chengmu, the commander-in-chief.
Xia Jing stood outside the house and picked her ears. She didn't expect a big man to have such a sharp mouth, and she felt ashamed.
"Do you like listening to men swearing?"
Although the abrupt male voice was very quiet, it still startled Xia Jing, she turned around abruptly, and saw the male god standing under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree coming down to save the catastrophe.
Xia Jing shook her head slightly, and quickly moved in front of him, sizing up the man's attire, which can only be described by the word coquettish.
"who are you?"
Feng Zhang raised his hands and smoothed the hair on both sides, and slightly raised his lips: "People who go to the theater under the moon!"
Xia Jing didn't expect him to answer like this, she glanced at him in surprise, folded her hands on her chest, thought for a while, and asked earnestly, "Are you Wu Gang who cut down trees in Guanghan Palace?"
"Wu Gang?"
Feng Zhang never expected Xia Jing to ask him this way, he glanced at Xia Jing's Miaoman figure, and then looked at the bright moon in the sky, with a charming smile on the corner of his mouth: "Why does the girl think that I am the daughter of Guanghan Palace?" people?"
Xia Jing's eyelids twitched, and she replied without thinking, "Because Fairy Chang'e came down to the mortal world today, you must have come here after Fairy Chang'e."
Hearing this, Feng Zhang's mouth twitched uncontrollably, this woman is really shameless, isn't this a disguised form of boasting that she is Chang'e Fairy?
"Why don't you speak, is it because I hit the spot!"
Xia Jing didn't let him go, as soon as this man opened his mouth, she knew that he was the mysterious man she met during the night of exploring the palace.
It's just that tonight he didn't wear night clothes or cover his face, letting her see his face, it's really awesome!
Feng Zhang followed her and nodded: "The girl is so smart, and you guessed this matter, but I have been chasing Fairy Chang'e, but she has never accepted me. Can the girl have a good plan to make the fairy accept me?"
Xia Jing sighed, flicked away the sweet-scented osmanthus that fell on his shoulder, and said with a bit of resentment: "Look at you, you take cutting down trees as a mission, but it's a pity that you are so respectful and loving, but fairies don't like to hear The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus, the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus that lingers around you will make the fairy away from you."
Feng Zhang glanced at Xia Jing a little uncertainly, looking at Xia Jing who was not in a good mood, he suspected that there was something wrong with her mind.
But he still stayed away from the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, standing in the upper air of the sweet-scented osmanthus, "Is that all right?"
Xia Jing nodded: "Well, yes, no matter how strong the wind is, I can fly you into the sky as a kite!"
Feng Zhang: "."
Xia Jing moved closer and asked in a low voice, "Hey, how old are you?"
Feng Zhang: ". I don't know!"
"Oh, you've been chopping trees for so many years, you must be too old, and you don't even have a good memory!" Xia Jing shook her head, and jumped onto the roof again.
Feng Zhang looked at the back of going away, and slapped his forehead suddenly, he still hadn't figured out who this woman was?What does it look like?
"She escaped again!"
