195 Don't Take the Blame

Trading a luxurious water bag for a strategy that might capture a city, anyone with a normal head would know how to choose.Chen Xiansong took the water bag and looked at it over and over for a while. Not to mention the inlaid gold hazel silver, there are three rubies of the same size and shape embedded in the mouth of the bag. It is extremely precious at first glance. .

Chen Xiansong opened the water bag, there was a strong smell of wine in it, he took a sip, the wine was a bit choking, he couldn't help coughing a few times.Suoxi looked at the boy calmly. Although he was very excited, excited, and excited about winning a major victory, he was still able to remain calm.True peace is the ability to suppress one's inappropriate feelings.No one is indifferent to any emotion, even the Buddha has a heart of compassion, which is also a kind of emotion.

People who can control their emotions have always been able to do great things.Chen Xiansong looked at the other party for a while, and then smiled. He admired this kind of person who could control his spirit and emotions. After plugging the mouth of the water bag, he asked Suoxi to sit on the shaft of the car, and then smiled and said his thoughts After coming out, Suo Xi's eyes became higher and higher as he listened, and after a few minutes, he excitedly stepped forward.

After Suoxi left, Chen Xiansong smiled lightly, and he uncorked the water bag again, poured out all the wine inside from the car, then inflated the whole sheepskin bag, plugged it up again, and drank the noodles himself waist.The three mercenaries who were in charge of watching him didn't react too much when they saw his behavior, but they felt sorry for the good wine he poured away.

Leonardo was still on the city wall. Now that the archers had withdrawn, he looked at the unmoving Suoxi army below, and his expression became more and more annoyed and restless. He thought of a possibility that Suoxi wanted to attack the city.Thinking of this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then all the anger surged into his heart. [

"You think my place is Xiluo City, and you can attack if you want, and leave if you want?" Leonardo put his hands on the wall.The veins on the back of the hand were exposed.

Xiluo City was the royal city of a small country a few years ago. The country was small, so it was often bullied. Their royal city was often attacked by the Kate Kingdom. When they were in a bad mood, they went to attack the city.When you are in a good mood, you will also go to attack the city, plunder it on the spot and leave without encroaching.It has been like this for hundreds of years, the entire Xiluo Kingdom, up to the king.Down to the poor, all can't stand it, and finally the conditions are merged into Tachibana.

"Teacher, please calm down." Kasar looked down and said slowly: "They don't have siege equipment, and it is impossible for them to capture our Log City."

Leonardo gritted his teeth.He said slowly in a suppressed voice: "I know, but I can't swallow this breath. He Suoxi is just an ordinary soul thinker, why should he attack my city, just because there might be a soul thinker standing behind him? "

This time, Kasar did not try to persuade him any more. He knew that his teacher was always very face-saving, and the people he knew, who were underestimated by him before, were now blatant.It was obvious that he was going to attack his city. This was a blatant contempt. Leonardo felt ashamed, and then a little angry, and Casal could understand it.

It's a pity that Suoxi didn't know Kasar's anger, and the two were separated by hundreds of meters, such a long distance.I can't even recognize people, let alone expressions... Now that Suoxi is still in high spirits, he personally commanded more than 100 heavy armored soldiers to erect a shield wall on the left side of the mall, and then blocked the rejected horses that had been demolished earlier. Pass the exit of the city gate on the side of the commercial road.

After doing these things.Susi let more than 100 people down the embankment and began to cut down the almond trees.Among the mercenaries, a large part of them are good at using axes. These huge axes can split even a person and armor in half, and they can be used for logging. Naturally, it is a matter of minutes.

Watching a tree of apricots fall down, the branches and leaves were specially cut off, and a high pile of leaves was piled up every few meters on the edge of the river embankment. Leonardo saw it strangely on the city wall, they What is this doing.Not to mention him, many people on the city wall are wondering.Unknown things always make people feel frightened. Kasar looked more and more nervous, and then had the urge to attack.

"Teacher, I'm restless. I always feel that something big is about to happen." Kasar said, "Can we try to attack outside? It doesn't seem good to let them do things so comfortably."

"But how to get out in the current state." The cavalry team on standby on the hill to the right of Leonardo said: "If we dare to go out through the main entrance, those cavalry can kill us. Stop it, how do you let me get out."

"We still have a back gate."

"The back door is so far away from the battlefield, and we don't have cavalry, so how can we fight, panting and running over to the door to be killed." Leonardo frowned: "Son, you are not a war soul thinker, and neither am I, so Don’t come up with random ideas. I have some ability to judge, so I won’t use them casually. But if you are standing in front of some ordinary commanders, in case they believe your wrong suggestion, I don’t need to say more about the consequences.”

Kasar shivered, and seemed to have thought of the consequences. He sighed, and didn't want to say anything more, so as not to be reprimanded by the teacher, but his heart became more and more uneasy. He couldn't help but said: "Teacher, why don't we start with the teacher?" Let's leave at the back gate. You also said that Suoxi is very cautious. If he is not sure enough, he will never stay here. Maybe we really can't keep it. Instead of staying and being humiliated, it's better..."

Halfway through his words, he didn't dare to continue, because many soldiers around him were looking at him, and Leonardo was also looking at him, his eyes were already full of red threads.Kasar understood that as long as he said a few more words, he would definitely be punished, maybe even his life...Suddenly, he remembered a proverb in the Kingdom of Cathay: Those who disturb the morale of the army in front of the battle should be punished.

"Son, you are tired, go back and rest." Leonardo said slowly.

Kasar nodded in agreement, and slowly stepped back from the city wall, got into his carriage, and when he returned home, his beautiful wife greeted him, took off his coat gently, and served hot fruit wine, which he drank in one gulp. Then he sat on the plush bench: "Angela, I have a bad feeling, now you go upstairs and take Bruce and Liya to the underground passage, and let Old Fording go down together."

"Is the situation dangerous now?" Angela sat beside him, a little worried: "We'll be fine."

"I have the identity of a soul thinker. Even if the city is broken, ordinary mercenaries dare not do anything to me, but you are different." Kasar took his wife's hand and said slowly: "You are ordinary nobles, It stands to reason that they don't move you too much, but... I'm afraid that some mercenaries with bloodshot heads will not be able to control themselves, and it will be too late if anything happens. So you must go to a safe place first, and then come out after the incident."

Angela nodded, then went upstairs to find her children.As a young soul thinker, Casar is ambitious and capable, but he feels that he has no luck. When life is about to flourish, the association actually fights among itself.Regardless of which side wins or loses, it is certain that the vitality will be severely injured. At that time, the reputation of the association will definitely be hit hard, and every soul thinker will be more or less affected. [

This also involves the Temple of the Sun.Maybe it was a strategy formulated by the Temple of the Sun because it felt that the association was developing too fast. Don't those high-ranking elders understand, don't they know the consequences of doing so!Of course they understood, Casal laughed at himself, if he had sat in Riccardo's seat, he would definitely do the same.

Interest and power are always the greatest driving force for human behavior.As human beings, those who think deeply about the soul are naturally not exempt from common customs.

His wife was busy on it preparing supplies for the long-term residence of the secret room. Hearing her running around on it, Kasar was somewhat satisfied.His combination with Angela was the result of political interests, but he was very satisfied with her.She is not only beautiful, but also conservative, although there is no love between them.But with family affection, this is already a very good result for the nobles.

His ideal love, ideal woman, should be like Bai Min, who can work hard with him and know how to share his worries.It's just that there are very few women like this, and even if you see them, they may not belong to you.

"The war soul thinker behind Suoxi is most likely Chen Xiansong." Thinking of that unbelievably beautiful cold girl.He thought about what happened on the city wall again, and Kasar said to himself strangely: "It's strange, then, where did Bai Min go? It stands to reason that with her by his side, no one would dare to touch him. Could it be After Sun Temple supported Riccardo, did you let Bai Min leave Chen Xiansong?"

"Probably not, she doesn't look like that kind of person."

"Could it be that you went to rescue the soldiers?" Kasar suddenly thought of this possibility, and then his eyes lit up: "Chen Xiansong is very smart, he may also be trying to find a way to escape, if this is the case, I will find a way Send someone to watch quietly, if there is a chance to help him... well, that's the way to do it."

Cassar went to the study on the third floor, rang the bell, and soon a housekeeper came in. He directly ordered: "Order Goshawk and Lone Wolf to find a way to sneak out of Log City and get as close to Suoxi as possible. When it comes to Chen Xiansong, that is to say, if a young citizen of Zhendan is running away, he can help if he can, if he really can't help, forget it, their lives are also very important."

The butler bent down and backed out.

Outside the city wall and by the river embankment, Suoxi's army had already emptied a nearby apricot forest. They chopped the logs into pieces and threw them on the piles of leaves. There were more than 50 people Pull weeds everywhere, and throw a plant with small white flowers, including roots and stems, on the pile of leaves.

"What are they doing?" Leonardo's expression was already quite ugly.Unknown things will always make people feel uneasy, especially when the other party is very likely to threaten you.

But soon, his face became more ugly, even a little hideous.On the edge of the river embankment, the mercenaries tied the thickest, roundest, eight-meter-long apricot trees together with tough vines, and then used thinner branches to grow horizontally from the vines. After passing through, about ten people lifted the tied apricots against the trunk.

Seeing this scene, Leonardo's face turned green. The thing made like this is already a simple siege pestle.

"Damn it, as expected of being a carpenter, I know a lot about crooked things." Leonardo gritted his teeth with hatred: "It's actually possible to temporarily make siege weapons, but these things are going to attack my city gate , It will definitely take a very long time. I will shoot arrows and stones on the city wall, and I will die as soon as I let it go. Soxi, are you willing to use your soldiers to pile up my city gate? Even if you can attack my city gate , How many troops do you have left?"

Thinking of this, Leonardo felt a little relieved.What he didn't know was that these simple siege pestles were not Suoxi's idea, but Chen Xiansong's idea.Now Suoxi is standing by the river embankment, admiring Chen Xiansong's quick wit.

After waiting a little longer, Suoxi saw that he had completed everything according to what Chen Xiansong said, and he asked a few heavy armored soldiers to hold a shield and escort a longbowman to the bottom of the city wall. Leonardo was feeling strange. Then, with a whoosh, the longbowman shot an arrow onto the city wall.

This kind of behavior of shooting arrows at each other in front of the battle is very popular in the Kingdom of Zhendan, and everyone in the world regards it as elegant.

A soldier took down the book of arrows and handed it to Leonardo. After he glanced at it a few times, the fat on his face kept shaking with anger: "Damn Suoxi, how dare you insult me ​​like this, you shoot arrows, Shoot those bastards down there for me."

A rain of arrows fell, and a few shields were like small umbrellas in a rainstorm. Although they seemed dangerous, they stubbornly retreated slowly. After they retreated to a safe place and put down their shields, they realized that each of them had been hit by a bullet. Fortunately, the two arrows were both critical parts, and because they were protected by heavy armor, they only suffered some skin trauma that didn't even hurt.

"Sure enough, as His Excellency Chen Xiansong said, Leonardo became furious." Suoxi rewarded these brave soldiers, and then said with a smile: "He really deserves to be a deep thinker of the soul of war. He does things one by one. Now that the enemy general has almost lost his mind, he can start planning."

After the herald heard this, he immediately held up the command flag, and the mercenaries waiting in front of the piles of leaves immediately started to light a fire. There were already more than 40 piles of such things by the riverbank, lined up, and the fire was lit at the same time. Suddenly, the embankment was billowing with smoke.At this time, the wind was blowing from the opposite side of the river to Round Wood City.

Because the fuel is made of freshly cut leaves and branches, the fire is not big, but there is a lot of smoke. Besides, there is a big river several meters wide and several meters deep behind them. If the fire is too big, they will Immediately pour some water on it.The other most important point is that they throw into the haystacks, those herbs with small white flowers, this thing is everywhere in Kate Kingdom, it can neither be eaten nor used as medicine, but it comes out after burning The smoke is pungent and hot, as long as one is smoked a little, people will be unable to open their eyes, and the nostrils and respiratory tract can be so pungent that it is difficult to breathe. [

Leonardo stood on the city wall, watching the thick black smoke drift towards the city wall, his face was completely dark, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets with anger: "Sosi, you despicable villain, you Disgraceful person, if you have the ability to confront me head-on, what kind of nobles are you making these tricks..."

An angry voice came from the other side of the city wall, and Suoxi could barely hear it, and then he smiled: "Yes, it's a shame to think deeply about the soul of war, such a scheme can be thought of, Your Excellency Chen Xiansong is really despicable, casually It can drive people crazy. If I were Leonardo, I would go crazy in this situation."

"But I can't blame him for this matter, and I dare not. Once the soul thinker of war is exposed, how many of them will die well!" Suo Xi shook his head: "When the battle is won, enter the city, I have to publicize Your Excellency Chen’s strategy well, I don’t want to be assassinated one after another out of nowhere.” (To be continued.
