The king behind the empress

Chapter 391 Unlucky Internal Response

When Feng Jinxiong said this, Hu Ming's expression turned ugly. After the people in the city knew about Mo Zizai's attempt to flood the city, they might rush to escape from Yining City.

At that time, it would be a good thing if their soldiers guarding the city didn't stop them, but they didn't run with them.

"It seems that this battle, even if I don't want to fight, I can't do it."

Hu Ming's face was a bit bitter, he couldn't figure it out, why did he suddenly change after a good defense of the city?Obviously occupying the advantage of the city wall, why did he have to go out and fight Mo Zizai?
Looking at the patriarchs of these aristocratic families present, a trace of unwillingness flashed in Hu Ming's eyes. In fact, in his opinion, Mo Zizai would not use water attacks at all, because no matter how unscrupulous Mo Zizai was, he represented the imperial court after all. Well, if he really did this, the court's reputation would be completely ruined.

And even if he takes a step back, Mo Zizai really doesn't care about his reputation with the court at all, and choosing to flood Yining is a good thing for him.

Using the chess piece of Yining City to exchange the reputation of the imperial court is a bloody profit.

But it is a pity that he is willing to do this, but these patriarchs are not willing, not even willing to gamble, otherwise, with the control of these patriarchs over Yi Ning, how could it be possible for the Yuzhi army to dig fortifications outside the city? Pass it to the city.

What Feng Jinxiong said just now seems to be reminding himself, but in fact he is threatening himself with the people in the city. If he really insists on going his own way, I am afraid that the first ones to spread the news to the city will be those from these aristocratic families. Patriarch.

"Mr. Hu really understands righteousness."

Feng Jinxiong didn't take advantage of it and acted like a good boy. After getting Hu Ming's consent, he saluted Hu Ming respectfully, and then said: "In this case, the safety of Yining City is up to Mr. Hu."

"It's just a matter of duty."

Hu Ming shook his head expressionlessly, and said, "Go and block the news first, and it won't be too late for us to go out to fight after Mo Zizai's soldiers digging the fortification are far away."

"Mr. Hu's words are justified."

Feng Jinxiong nodded in agreement, but he asked casually in the next sentence: "However, how long will this take?"

After finishing speaking, Feng Jinxiong quickly added: "Mr. Hu, don't misunderstand, the main reason is that it is difficult to block the news. Please give me a specific date so that we can do things according to this time."

Hearing this, Hu Ming took a deep look at Feng Jinxiong, he knew that Feng Jinxiong was asking him for a time limit, in case he would procrastinate this matter for a long time.

"Patriarch Feng, don't worry, I will go out of the city to fight in ten days at most. I wonder if Patriarch Feng is satisfied at this time?"

"Mr. Hu misunderstood, what can I be satisfied with?"

Hearing Hu Ming's words with a bit of anger, Feng Jinxiong quickly explained with a sneer: "But in ten days, I think we can still block the news, and with our reputation in the city, even if there are any rumors in the city Get up, we can definitely suppress it."

"So much the better."

Hu Ming saw off the guest without any turmoil in his tone: "Hu is still going to inspect the city wall. If this person has nothing to do, please go back."

"Good, good, good..."

The patriarchs of these aristocratic families looked at Hu Ming's gloomy expression, and knew that he was obviously in a bad mood at the moment, and no one stayed to touch his bad luck at the moment, and immediately walked down from the city wall after he issued the order to expel the guests.

Hu Ming stood with his hands behind his back, watching their leaving figures, he couldn't help but clenched his fists behind his back. These wastes, who have done more than fail, were forced to make a good situation like this. If I had known that I had just come In Yining City, they should be eliminated first.

Hu Ming said cruel words in his heart, but in fact, deep down in his heart, there was more helplessness.

Knowing that the Chiyan Dragonrider is so strong, he insisted on taking the initiative to go out of the city to fight, to hit a stone with an egg, he, Hu Ming, had never fought such a stupid battle in his life.

"Damn things!!!"

Feeling aggrieved, Hu Ming kicked hard on the city wall, not knowing whether he was scolding Mo Zizai or the heads of the aristocratic families just now.

……

In the barracks of the Imperial Army.

"There's something wrong with this situation."

Mo Zizai stood in front of the camp, looked at the thousands of people in Yining City, and couldn't help but look a little dignified, "The Yuzhi army has been digging for several days, and there is still no movement in Yining City. If they don't leave the city, we will always Can’t really flood them with water?”

"My lord, don't worry, wait and see."

Yang Yanzhang was not too anxious, he opened his mouth and explained to Mo Zizai: "If you want to send troops in Yining City, you should wait until the group of Yuzhi troops who dig the river have dug far away before doing it. It's been a few days."

"If they don't leave the city these few days, then the city will be difficult to attack."

The reason why Yang Yanzhang said this was because if there were no troops in the city in the end, it would mean that Hu Ming could suppress the aristocratic families in the city, and the entire Yining city was monolithic.

And if this is the case, then the only way to attack Yi Ning City is to gnaw hard.

"Oh, that's right."

Mo Zizai nodded in a daze, thinking that what Yang Yanzhang said made sense, but after thinking about it for a while, he asked again: "If this is the case, should we call back those Yuzhi troops who were digging the river and set up an ambush? "

"No need."

Yang Yanzhang shook his head, and said: "These days, there have been spies in the city watching the Yuzhi army's digging, if they are withdrawn, they will be easily discovered, and it will be bad if they are too scared to come out. "

After explaining the reason, Yang Yanzhang said proudly again: "And as long as they dare to come out, our remaining troops are definitely more than enough to deal with them, and there is no need to bring back the five thousand Yuzhi troops."

In Yang Yanzhang's calculation, if the army of Yining City really dared to come out, then as long as [-] Red Flame Dragonriders would charge forward, and the remaining [-] Yuzhi Army would be enough to end the battle.

As for the remaining [-] recruits, they don't need to participate in the battle at all, just let them stay and clean the battlefield.

"Okay, as long as you're sure."

Seeing Yang Yanzhang's confident appearance, Mo Zizai stopped talking and commanding blindly, "If I need to take action at that time, just speak up, since I'm idle anyway."

"Well..."

Hearing Mo Zizai's words, Yang Yanzhang reluctantly agreed, and he still can't figure it out, isn't Mo Zizai an ignorant dude?Why did he suddenly become a top expert in physical training?Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger isn't the way it is, is it?

And Zhou Qi, he is clearly a true qi fighter. Just a few months ago, when I saw him fighting Xue Wanche on the street, he was still in the shadow state. Why did he suddenly become so strong, and he was still a gas Double cultivation, this is a bit outrageous, right?
As for Tang Weilu in the end, because she doesn't show up often and I don't know her well, she is a golden body warrior, which is a bit normal... a normal hammer! ! !
, Human Realm Qi Warrior plus Golden Body Realm Body Cultivation, do you understand this, Du Nima is outrageous!
Yang Yanzhang, who did not enjoy the benefits of Mo Zizai's new functions, suspected that he had to live for several days before accepting this fact. Anyway, it is a good thing to have a few more golden warriors, even if he did not intend to let Mo Zizai lead the army Charge into battle, but with these few golden bodies sitting in the army, he can be much bolder when marching.

While Mo Zizai and Yang Yanzhang were waiting outside the city for Hu Ming to take the initiative to send troops, Xu Boyuan in the city couldn't sit still.

Each of these aristocratic families is a local snake. With their joint efforts, the news that Mo Zizai was going to divert the Qianlang River to flood Yining City was tightly blocked by them. Although there were occasional rumors in the market, but in their Under the suppression of the government, it will basically disappear after a short period of time, so it will not reach Xu Boyuan's ears at all.

So in the past few days, Xu Boyuan was very confused. He obviously got the news that Mo Zizai's army was coming, but Mo Zizai's army had no intention of attacking the city at all. What's going on?

I have already instigated the rebellion of the civilians in the city, and I waited for the most intense battle to lead them to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, and stab Hu Ming fiercely in the back, but in the end the battle was not fought, isn't this a joke? .

Forced to do nothing, Xu Boyuan had no choice but to take the risk of contacting the internal response in the city again.

After the password was posted, Lu Dafu from Yu Zhisi rushed over panting in just half a day.

"Mr. Xu, you are in such a hurry to find him, but what happened?"

Lu Dafu stopped to take a few breaths, he thought Xu Boyuan was in some trouble, so he came in a hurry.

"Well, it's not a big deal."

Seeing that Lu Dafu had misunderstood, Xu Boyuan quickly spoke to comfort him: "I just don't understand one thing, why didn't the prince's army attack?"

"Um???"

Hearing this, Lu Dafu looked at Xu Boyuan with a strange expression. If he hadn't dealt with Xu Boyuan before and confirmed his identity, he now really doubted whether Xu Boyuan was sent by Mo Zizai.

You are an internal response who just came out of the army, but you don't know anything about it. Why didn't you attack the city, and you came to ask me, a person who has been lurking in Yining City for a long time? Isn't that a bit outrageous?

"Forehead……"

Looking at Lu Dafu's expression, Xu Boyuan was also a little embarrassed, and couldn't help explaining: "Before I set off, the prince didn't explain this matter, so I don't know very well."

"Didn't the prince send someone to contact you in the past few days?"

Hearing what Xu Boyuan said, Lu Dafu couldn't help but ask. You must know that Xu Boyuan and the others came in to serve as internal responses, not just to cause sabotage, so logically speaking, Mo Zizai would definitely send someone to contact them.

"That...that..."

Speaking of this matter, Xu Boyuan was even more embarrassed. He hesitated for a long time before saying, "A few days ago, there was an armed fight in Nancheng, did you know?"

"I know."

Lu Dafu nodded without hesitation. What he was doing in Yining City was intelligence work, so it was impossible to hide such news-like incidents from him. The old pawn who had passed, got into a fight with a group of drunk people."

"Those veterans are pretty strong..."

Speaking of this, Lu Dafu suddenly paused. He looked at Xu Boyuan incredulously, and asked, "Who are those people from you?"

"Um……"

Xu Boyuan nodded helplessly, "Those are the ones who are in charge of contacting the prince."

"Now that they're in jail, I can't hear from the prince at all."

"..."

Hearing what Xu Boyuan said, Lu Dafu couldn't help looking at Xu Boyuan with some sympathy. He was very clear about the whole story of that incident. Those old soldiers suffered from innocent disasters and were stopped by a group of drunken troublemakers to find fault.

The group of veterans backed down a few times, and found that the group of young masters had made an inch, without any sign of a hand, so they made an unambiguous move, and directly defeated those young masters and their guards with one enemy. .

As a result, as soon as this side made a move, the people from the city patrol over there came. Looking at the old soldiers who made the move, they couldn't help but put them in the prison.

Originally, there was a fight, but there were no casualties, and it was still in self-defense, so the matter was over after paying some money.

But now they are defending the city, and as soon as their strength is exposed, they are immediately followed by a general who is defending the city.

It's not that they doubt their identities, but they want to take them under their command to defend the city. In this way, although this group of people has not been exposed, it is basically impossible to pass on news.

"It's really a disaster."

Lu Dafu shook his head. He had checked this matter before, but found that it was indeed an accident, and those soldiers, from their accents to their habits, were also old soldiers, echoing their identities, so I didn't think about their internal response.

Knowing from Xu Boyuan at this moment that they are really insiders, this makes him feel funny.

But he didn't think too much about it, since it was confirmed that it was an accident, he didn't hide it, and directly told Xu Boyuan about Mo Zizai's plan outside the city.

"My lord is planning to flood Yining City?"

Xu Boyuan was not surprised when he heard the news, but the next moment he reacted, "No, no, if the prince really intends to do this, he will send someone to notify me anyway, so this matter It should not be determined yet."

After thinking for a while, Xu Boyuan quickly guessed Mo Zizai's intention, "It seems that the prince wants to force them to leave the city for a decisive battle."

"I said why the troops in the city have been rectified in the past few days. It turned out that they planned to leave the city."

Originally, Xu Boyuan felt a little strange when he saw that the city had been mobilizing soldiers and horses for the past few days. Now that he knew the news, he immediately understood the reason why they did this.

"Mr. Lu, please find a way to send news to the prince, saying that the city has begun to gather troops, and troops will definitely be sent in the next few days, so let him be careful."

After saying this request, Xu Boyuan thought for a while, and asked again: "Also, is Mr. Lu sure that he can get the current ordnance deployment map in the city?"

"It shouldn't be a problem to pass the news to the prince. As for the ordnance deployment map..."

Xu Boyuan pondered for a moment, and then said: "This thing, I can find someone to find a solution."
