After the soul exchange, the powerful minister gave birth to twins for me

Chapter 84 Disagreements
"Okay, it's up to you, just remember to drink it." Mo Zhiyuan let out a long breath.

At this time, a subordinate came to look for Mo Zhiyuan, Mo Zhiyuan gave some instructions, and then went to work with his subordinates.

Xu Yisuan has already left.

Taking advantage of no one else getting up, Liu Ruyun took a look at the decoction on the table, picked up the decoction and poured it into the potted plant beside her.

Chun Shu was surprised, "Ma'am, what are you doing? This is the medicine that the general found with great difficulty. It is good for your health, Ma'am. You won't have to suffer so much after drinking it."

She really didn't understand why Liu Ruyun threw away the medicine.

Liu Ruyun didn't explain either, but just smiled wryly, "Chun Shu, you just need to remember that in the future, all the medicines they send should be poured out while no one else is there, and don't let others know."

Although Chunshu didn't understand Liu Ruyun's behavior, but Liu Ruyun was her master, she couldn't question Liu Ruyun's order, so she agreed.

As time passed day by day, there were more and more rebels guarding the city, and the troops led by Mo Zhiyuan became weaker and weaker, unable to resist the attack of the rebels.

Gritting his teeth like this for five days, there was still no sign of reinforcements, and the morale of the soldiers below gradually wavered.

Several generals who were in charge of guarding the city wall gathered together last night. They all knew the current situation well, and all of them looked solemn and worried when they gathered together.

Most of them have the same idea. It is nothing for them to die in the city, but there are still their wives and children in the city. If the city breaks down one day, won't their wives and children be trampled by the rebels?

This is also what they are most worried about. The current situation is really not optimistic.

"If this continues without reinforcements, the rebels will forcibly break through the city sooner or later. By that time, we people will be fine, but the old, weak, women and children in the city will suffer."

Once their line of defense is breached, everyone in the city will become lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and everyone knows this most clearly.

One of the generals finally couldn't bear it and spoke first, "If you want me to say, if you really can't fight, you can simply organize the people in the transfer city to retreat together, so that the green hills remain, and you don't have to worry about running out of firewood."

"It seems reasonable."

Someone mentioned it, and everyone thought about it one after another.

"But judging by the general's appearance, he has no intention of retreating at all. What we say will not be adopted by the general, right?"

One of them raised a question.

"Now that the reinforcements are not coming, we can't hold on any longer. Only retreat is the only way. Why don't we discuss it with the general."

Everyone felt that this made sense, some generals asked someone to drink some wine from the wine jar, and took advantage of the time when the wine was strong and cowardly, they went to look for Mo Zhiyuan.

Seeing several generals coming to him in unison, Mo Zhiyuan asked, "What's the matter, everyone?"

One of the generals took the initiative to say: "General, now that the number of rebels is increasing, we have become a turtle in the urn, and the reinforcements have not arrived for a long time. If this continues, the rebels will enter the city sooner or later. It is better to prepare for the worst and send someone to transfer secretly." The people in the city go to the nearby city, let's retreat."

"Yeah, there's no way around that."

Several other generals echoed.

But Mo Zhiyuan resolutely refused: "No, I know what you think, the current situation is indeed not good for us, but have you ever thought that the weather in the border town is harsh and the terrain is steep, and it is difficult for the people in the city to settle down in the border town and live an ordinary and peaceful life? On a peaceful day, once they retreat, they become refugees, displaced."

"Even if the nearby city is willing to take them in, they have to start again. If they want to live the life before, they have to fight for decades, but how many decades are there in a person's life? If we grit our teeth and persist, Perhaps we can wait for reinforcements to defend our homes, but if we retreat immediately, we will lose all chance of winning."

"The border town will also be completely occupied by the rebels, and the morale of the army will also be greatly reduced, which is not good for us, and even more bad for the people."

Several generals looked at each other in blank dismay, and the general who proposed to retreat was the first to speak.

"There is certainly some truth to what the general said, but it is too idealistic. If reinforcements do not come, there will be a big gap between our numbers and the number of rebels. Hands, sooner or later they won't be able to hold on."

"General, you don't know when the reinforcements will come. If the rebels suddenly break through the city one day, not only our lives will be lost, but the lives of the common people will also be lost."

"Even if the resettlement of the people becomes a problem after the retreat, one life can still be saved. Once they fall into the hands of the rebels, the people will be lost forever. So please think twice, general, and consider our suggestion."

"General, please think twice!"

Several other generals also unified their caliber.

Mo Zhiyuan closed his eyes, "Please believe me, the border town will never be destroyed."

The border town is their country's first line of defense, if it is breached, the consequences will be too serious, Mo Zhiyuan will never allow such a thing to happen.

If they retreat, this will undoubtedly bring a huge blow to the people.

Now, the people in the city all know that a great general has come to the border town, so even though the rebels attacked the border town, most of the people still believe that Mo Zhiyuan can guard the border town and their homeland where they have lived for decades.

If they really retreated, the people's trust in Mo Zhiyuan would be on the verge of collapse, and they would even feel dissatisfied with the border guards and Mo Zhiyuan.

Several generals saw that Mo Zhiyuan was unwilling to let go, and continued to persuade, "So the general believes that the reinforcements will definitely come?"

"Yes, it is impossible for His Majesty to give up the border town." Mo Zhiyuan affirmed.

"If the reinforcements don't come, what will the general do?"

"Take one step at a time, and we'll talk about it when the time comes." Mo Zhiyuan still looked calm and relaxed.

But these generals couldn't help but Mo Zhiyuan is a general, his mentality is much better than these junior generals, and his vision is much higher, the two sides naturally have different views.

"Excuse me, general, you are blindly optimistic. You are not responsible for the people in the city or the soldiers in the army."

The general who came to persuade him was a little excited, and Mo Zhiyuan was also a little annoyed, "Why don't you trust me once, I will definitely make the most appropriate decision to deal with it."

The views of the two parties were different, so friction occurred, and finally broke up unhappy.

Mo Zhiyuan was already in a bad mood, but now he became even more depressed. When his depression reached a certain level, he wanted to find the closest and most trusted person to confide in.

Mo Zhiyuan immediately thought of Liu Ruyun, so he came to Liu Ruyun's room.

At this time, the new medicine was ready, and Liu Ruyun was instructing Chunshu to pour the medicine into the potted plants.

Just as Chun Shu picked up the bowl, Mo Zhiyuan pushed the door open.

Chun Shu was startled, the bowl in his hand was unsteady and almost fell to the ground, "General, why are you here?"

"What are you doing?" Mo Zhiyuan was a little surprised to see Chun Shu holding the medicine in his hand.

Fortunately, Chunshu responded in a timely manner, "Madam said, let it cool down for a while before drinking." He put the medicine bowl on the table casually.
