Shu Blossoms

Zheng Wei slept for a day and a night, and this time he did not bring a medical officer with him, if Zhao Mingzhi hadn't detected that Zheng Wei's pulse was still stable, Wu Ling'er looked at her paler face, wishing to try her best to wake her up.

Until the dawn of the day, Zhao Bei sent scouts back to deliver the letter. Wu Linger quickly opened it and scanned it, then handed it to Zhao Mingzhi with a solemn expression.

Zhao Mingzhi took a look at it, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In the letter, it was written that Han Shiying and Han Shichen brothers ordered the army to attack the city for two days without an inch of success. Last night, Han Shichen led a part of the troops to turn around and head north. About noon, he could collide with Zhao Bei's thousand or so people. Zhao Bei wrote to ask how to deal with it.

"Master Zhao, even if there is only half of the troops, Han Shichen's army is more than ten times larger than ours. Even if I try my best to put all the troops in, it is still not enough for the Han army. How should we deal with this battle!" Wu Linger worried. Looking back into the tent, "If Wei'er doesn't wake up, it will be too late!"

"It's true that you can't fight recklessly, but you can't just leave here. You have to find out why they returned. It must not be because they knew that we attacked Jiujiang before and came back to rescue them!" Zhao Mingzhi's words made Wu Linger ashamed. In people's eyes, there is no need for rescue.

"Since it's not to rescue Jiujiang, it's for it." Wu Ling'er followed Zhao Mingzhi's words and guessed, and the person behind her took her unfinished words, "Excuse me!"

Wu Ling'er jumped up happily when she heard the voice, "Wei'er, you're awake!"

She ran to Zheng Wei's side to support her, and asked with concern: "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

"Don't worry, I'm much better!" Zheng Wei shook her head to comfort her, and then asked Zhao Mingzhi, "Master, we can't fight recklessly, but we can't run away in a panic, otherwise we will be easily surrounded by the enemy, and I have to trouble you to send someone to senior brother Send a letter asking him to take a few scouts to follow the movement of Han Shichen's army at any time, so as to buy time for the army to withdraw."

"Let's just leave like this and let the Han family go east?" Wu Ling'er was unwilling to think of this.

In the past few days here, without an inch of success, but being forced to retreat steadily, it is really aggrieved.

"I'm more worried about one thing now!" Zheng Wei's expression was serious, she vaguely remembered that she had slept for a long time, she was worried that it would be too late, "How long has Xiao Yucheng been gone?"

Wu Linger thought for a while and replied, "Today is the fifth day."

"Five days. If everything goes well, he should be here soon. Maybe he will be on the river outside Jiujiang City at this time."

Zheng Wei looked at Zhao Mingzhi and Wu Ling'er, and they understood very well, "If Han Shichen is going east by water, judging from the distance, General Xiao is likely to meet Han Shichen and the others on a narrow road!"

"If the number of troops borrowed by General Xiao exceeds tens of thousands, we will have the strength to fight. If it is only a few thousand." Wu Ling'er didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but the three of them knew that the situation was not optimistic.

Zheng Wei suddenly thought of something, turned around and walked towards the tent, Wu Linger and Zhao Mingzhi followed in, saw that she removed all the things on the table, carefully laid out the map, then turned to ask Wu Linger, "Where is Han Shichen's army at this time?" where?"

Wu Linger took a closer look, stretched out her hand and tapped on a road, "According to the news that senior brother Zhao Bei sent just now, Han Shichen and the others should be here."

Zheng Wei's slender and somewhat rough fingers gently moved along the route from the place Wu Linger pointed, passed through Jiujiang City and stopped at the Jiangshui Pier in the east. The earliest here will be tomorrow evening.

Then her fingers came to the river again, all the way upstream along the river to the west and stopped at the black spot on the pier, and then her fingertips tapped on the black spot lightly, making the sound of "tuk tuk" .

Wu Ling'er understood and said for her: "Although we don't know where General Xiao is at this time, both of them will definitely board or disembark at this place. There is a great chance that they will meet!"

"That's right, although we don't know where Xiao Yucheng is at this time, we are here, if the whole army rushes at full speed, we will definitely be able to reach this pier at noon tomorrow." Zheng Wei pointed to their location again.

"But what's the point if we are the only ones with less than six thousand soldiers going there?" Wu Ling'er was still worried. If he was lucky enough to meet Xiao Yucheng and join forces, the soldiers he could borrow in just a few days would not be enough. There are too many meetings, so the chances of winning are still not great.

All of this depends on luck, it's too risky, Wu Linger used to just follow her father and brothers to charge forward, and she would fight wherever her father and brothers pointed her to, and rarely bothered to think about it.Today's situation immediately gave her a headache!
"It seems that although our chances of winning are not great, we may not have a chance!" Zheng Wei's eyes brightened as she looked at Wu Ling'er, her slender fingers slid across the cities that the river passed through, circling several large cities.

Zhao Mingzhi looked carefully back and forth on the map with her hand, and said hesitantly: "This waterway will pass through several large cities, and there are many troops stationed in the cities. If they unite to stop them with all their strength, Han Shichen's army will not be able to escape safely. Down.".
"The brothers of the Han family were wary from the very beginning, so they gave up this fastest waterway and chose to detour to Hongdu County. We can take advantage of this and pin Han Shichen here. Even force him to return to Jiujiang!"

The morning light shone through the gap and cast a blush on Zheng Wei's side face. Wu Ling'er couldn't help but look at it, only to find that Princess Danyang's eyes at this time no longer had the fragility and confusion when she just came back, only firmness remained. .

Wu Ling'er suddenly felt confident in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "What should we do?"

There was a smirk in Zheng Wei's eyes, and she asked Wu Linger, "Do you still remember the 'Empty City Strategy' that Mr. Xiao Han talked about in the Martial Arts Academy!"

"you want"

A light flashed in Wu Ling'er's eyes when she heard the words, and she moved forward.

Zhao Mingzhi looked at the two girls who were supposed to be delicate, put on a show, and huddled head to head together, muttering, with a smirk flashing in his eyes from time to time, and a smile could not help but appear on his pursed lips.

He finally understands, no wonder they can become good sisters, they both have the same bold decision, and the Liao's daughter, they both have the same thing in them, they will not be easily influenced by others.

Seeing Zheng Wei again this time, he hid behind intentionally or unintentionally, and let these children make their own decisions if the situation wasn't critical.Seeing them walking more and more steadily now, he was also relieved, as soon as the matter here was settled, he could take Fu Hong away.

After all, Fu Hong's background cannot be made public, and it is not suitable for him to stay by Zheng Wei's side.

Zheng Wei and Wu Ling'er discussed it, looked up and saw the master was looking at them smiling kindly, and after a closer look, he found that his eyes were in a trance, and the corner of his mouth was smiling, as if his mind was wandering too far.

Zheng Wei walked over, stretched out her hand in front of his eyes, and asked with concern: "Master, are you tired?"
