Chapter 1471: Insight
As the first ray of morning light fell on the city tower of Tongfang City, the army that had almost attacked all night long, finally rolled away like the tide of the sea. Wulin felt his legs sore and could no longer stand, and sat on the cold city wall. Until this time, he felt a little cold on his head. He reached out and touched it and immediately grinned in pain. Only then did he realize that the helmet disappeared at some point, and a large piece of his hair and scalp were missing. It must have been peeled away by a cold arrow during the fierce battle. Wulin couldn't help but sweat. If the arrow was lowered by a few points, he would have turned into a cold corpse now.
After sitting for a while, I finally had the strength to get up. Seeing the wisps of smoke coming out of the city, my stomach couldn't help but sounded a few times, and then I felt really hungry.
He threw the big knife that was still tightly held in his hand and almost turned into a serrated one side, and Wulin walked into the city tower.
When he stepped into the city gate, he saw Zhou Jiyun just lifting the quilt and sitting on the bed, rubbing his face hard, and throwing his armor and other things to the edge of the bed, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
"General, you, are you actually asleep?"
Zhou Jiyun looked at him with a very strange eye: "You are commanding the battle, and I have nothing to do, what else can I do without sleeping?"
"You can sleep after a night of fighting? Are you not afraid that I can't hold on?" Wu Lin widened his eyes.
As soon as he lifted the quilt, Zhou Jiyun jumped up and said while wearing clothes: "What did you think of the two days ago? What did you think of last night? I still have some predictions, why can't you sleep? Besides, you have been fighting all night, and you must have to make up for your sleep during the day. If I don't sleep well, how can I pick you up?"
Wu Lin gave a thumbs up in admiration: "The general is worthy of being the general, and he can still sleep like this!"
Zhou Jiyun smiled and pointed to the quilt, "It's still warm."
Wu Lin shook his head: "I'm hungry, I have to eat first before I can sleep."
"You can eat and sleep. You look pretty good in your energy. Are you injured?" Walking to Wulin, he glanced at the wound on his head, "Fortunately it's winter, I don't shed much blood. If you lower a few inches, you'll be done."
"The arrows were like rain, and I didn't feel it at that time." Wu Lin sucked in a sizzling breath," she beat her a bit unexpectedly fierce last night. Bian's men were crazy."
"Can't you be in a hurry?" Zhou Jiyun said lightly: "If you can't take Kunling County, it will become dumpling stuffing."
When Zhou Jiyun was wearing his armor, several personal soldiers also walked in with food boxes. Zhou Jiyun uncovered the lid, grabbed a bun from the inside, and walked out while gnawing, saying to Wulin: "Then you eat first, have a good sleep after eating. There is still something to fight in this battle."
"General, if we continue to fight like this, we will not be able to hold on. Although Jie Bao is crawling as a turtle, he will eventually crawl. There is also the Xiaoshi City, I am also worried!" Wu Lin looked at Zhou Jiyun's back and said.
"Don't worry, some people will worry more about the matter here than we do, so there will definitely be a way to solve this problem. Although I don't know how they solve it, I'm not worried at all." Zhou Jiyun laughed and brought the door with a bang.
Wu Lin was silent for a while and murmured: "No wonder you are a general. I can only be a general. I can't compare to this big heart alone. You have to eat first and then sleep, and you can't learn the best. It's better to learn face."
After eating voraciously, after thinking about it, he finally jumped onto the bed without taking off his armor, pulled the quilt and covered himself up.
I felt that I had just squinted for a while, and was heard by the sound of killing outside. Wu Lin suddenly jumped up in shock. When he looked up, he saw the hourglass on the table. It was already past noon. After sleeping for a long time, he rushed out of the city tower and saw the Shura battlefield shouting and killing the killing.
Before he stood firm, the linoline arrow rushed towards him. As soon as he shortened his body, several arrows flew past his head, snatching it and nailing it to the door panel on his body.
Wu Lin picked up a spear from the ground and rushed down. Zhou Jiyun sat in the middle of the city tower with a big golden sword. Several large shield soldiers held large shields and stared at everything in front of them vigilantly. One by one, the orders were issued from Zhou Jiyun's mouth. The flag-holding commanders next to him waved the flags and conveyed the orders.
Wu Lin glanced at him and saw that two messengers were already caught in arrows and fell to the ground.
"I fought all night yesterday, and after only half a day, I got into it again. I was really desperate!" Wu Lin looked at the soldiers of the Bian team climbing up the ladder like an ant, and took a breath.
Zhou Jiyun glanced at him and laughed: "I'm waking up now? It's good to be young."
Wu Lin said, "There is a general who can reach the door. You have been sleeping all night, but I can't fall asleep when there is a sound."
Zhou Jiyun laughed, shook his head, and watched the changes in the battle situation with all his attention.
Wu Lin looked aside for a while and suddenly said, "General, it's not right."
"What's wrong?"
"That was these troops attacking us last night. Why did it only take half a day? Are these troops still there? Do they have enough troops to rotate?"
Zhou Jiyun blinked, "Are you sure? Isn't the other party setting up a suspicion array?"
"How could it be?" Wu Lin shook his head and said, "The one who attacked us was the newly formed army of the Bian army, not the soldiers brought from Qin by the Bian army. Their appearances were quite different and their combat styles were also very different."
Zhou Jiyun stood up suddenly, turned his head and thought for a while, and suddenly burst into laughter: "I understand, I understand."
"General, what do you understand?" Wu Lin looked at Zhou Jiyun in confusion.
"Didn't I tell you in the morning that someone will be more anxious about the situation in Kunling County than us. Will he definitely find a way to solve the dilemma in front of us?"
"Yes, you said it."
"The other party has taken action." Zhou Jiyun said lightly: "I'm afraid the main force of the Bian tribe is leaving. Maybe at this time, one of them has already left."
Wu Lin's eyes lit up: "General, wouldn't that mean that if we invest our follow-up forces now, wouldn't we be able to defeat the enemy in front of us and launch a counterattack?"
Zhou Jiyun smiled faintly: "Why launch a counterattack? The main force of Bian's army left, leaving a part of us here to restrain us. The intensity of the battle will soon come down, but this is what I just want. Bian's army doesn't need us to deal with it, and we don't need to waste troops on them."
"General!" Wu Lin looked at Zhou Jiyun in confusion.
"Since we have seen through Bian Wushuang's methods, we don't need to prepare so many reserve teams in Tongfang next. I want to take these people to Xiaoshi City."
"There was nowhere in Xiaoshi City to ask for help. Obviously, Guan Ning and the others still had the extra effort. Although Xiaoshi City was small, it was always a military camp that the Chu army focused on. Later, we continued to strengthen it and kept it firmly there, and there was still no problem."
Zhou Jiyun was silent for a moment: "Do you still remember what Elder Wusu said to me last time?"
Wu Lin's face dimmed, "Elder Wusu asked us to launch a counterattack on Luzhou at the right time to attract the enemy in Luzhou. It would be better to involve more Qi troops in. It would be better if we could attract some of the Long Xiang army. But with our current situation, how can we launch a counterattack? Besides, don't you judge that the elders will be defeated? Since it is a situation of defeat, why bother to invest their troops in vain?"
"I don't know what the elders are planning, but one thing is clear. They did not place all their hopes on Cao Yun, and they obviously have a backup plan."
"Do they even believe the general and refuse to reveal the real situation?" Wu Lin was a little dissatisfied, "No matter what, if you let you know what they were thinking, wouldn't it be possible to give them more help?"
"The help we give them is limited, and now our actual situation is not worthy of their trust." Zhou Jiyun smiled bitterly: "Old Master Zhou is such a person, so he asked Elder Wusu to send a message to ask us to counterattack Luzhou at the right time, rather than ordering."
Wu Lin fell silent. "What did Mr. Zhou think?"
"This is also a kind of cutting!" Zhou Jiyun took a deep breath: "We have defected to the Ming people, and the Ming Kingdom cannot tolerate the noble families. Mr. Zhou's plan is to use generations of people to complete the re-rise of the aristocratic family. All our generation needs to do is pave the way."
"Maybe Mr. Zhou is also worried that we will reveal it to Mingren after we know the actual situation." Wu Lin was a little angry, "I don't trust us so much."
"It's not a question of trust or not." Zhou Jiyun said: "It's just that there is no need, because we can't help, so what can we do if we know? It doesn't matter whether we tell the Ming people or not. The bigger the matter, the happier the Ming people are. So for this matter, they can only watch on the wall and watch the tiger fight."
Wu Lin sighed. He could not understand the thoughts of the elderly.
"Since someone has taken action, Bian Wushuang will inevitably face a desperate situation. I can naturally free up my hands to lead my troops to Xiaoshi City to meet Guanning, and then launch a counterattack on Luzhou. It can be regarded as another effort for what I have planned for them as a child of aristocratic families." Zhou Jiyun murmured.
"General, is there any possibility of success in the elder?" Wulin asked with hope.
Zhou Jiyun was silent for a moment and said decisively: "No, if they are undefeated by Cao Tiancheng, they will be defeated by Cao Yun. If Cao Tiancheng wins, there is no need to say the consequences. Even if they really win by supporting Cao Yun, with my understanding of Cao Yun, they will still be dead."
"Walking around, it's dead end, why bother?" Wu Lin said in pain.
"If you don't leave, you will be dead!" Zhou Jiyun smiled bitterly: "This is fate, this is also momentum. The aristocratic family has been in full swing for more than a thousand years, and it is time for it to perish. This trend will end from the beginning and from the beginning to the end."
"It's just that the old aristocratic families are destroyed, and a new group of aristocratic families are beginning to rise."
