A school lieutenant walked towards Li Yuheng quickly, "Wei Chen pays homage to His Royal Highness King Heng. General Wei is discussing military affairs with the generals in the conference hall. Let Wei Chen invite His Highness King Heng to come over and discuss together."
Since the emperor asked King Heng to come with him, Wei Ming would not treat him as an invisible person, even though he had never marched to fight.
There were eight generals sitting in the meeting hall, and the seat next to Wei Ming was specially reserved for Li Yuheng.
"The spies have received news that Usakana, the crown prince of the Snow Kingdom, has led an army of 200,000 troops and has already advanced on Yuebei City. There is only one day left. Wan Weixin is ready for a last-ditch battle. What we want to discuss now is Support Yuebei City or strictly guard the isolated city? "
Gucheng is very close to Yuebei City. If there is support, they will definitely enter the city before the Snow Country army arrives.
Li Yuheng sat on a chair and listened to them express their opinions.
Although he has never fought on the battlefield personally, he has read quite a lot of military books and can still understand the meaning of these generals' words.
Usakana brought a lot of people this time. If they were to support Yuebei City and were besieged by the opponent, Yuebei City would not be fully prepared in terms of defense facilities or food storage.
The transportation of grain and grass takes time, and there will be losses on the road.
They had never fought against the Snow Country army before, so they took this opportunity to understand the opponent's strength.
Ever since Wan Weixin led Xiwan's army into Yuebei City, the news of a war was spread, and the few people in the city had almost left at this moment.
Wei Ming's plan was to have Wan Weixin pretend to be defeated and abandon the city. After the Snow Kingdom's army entered the city, he would lead his troops out of the city to form a counter-siege.
Li Yuheng had no objection to Wei Ming's plan. What he was worried about was that although the two sides had similar military strength, their combat effectiveness might not be at the same level.
There is nothing wrong with letting Wan Weixin test the opponent's strength first.
The people Wen Jinhe sent to follow the cordon kept changing people all night long and rushed to Nancheng to bring back the news of the Snow Country sending troops.
After Lu Qi and Lu Jue learned about it, they immediately began to inspect Nancheng's military supplies and defense situation.
Mu Mingqian looked at the two people who were jumping up and down speechlessly, "This Snow Country army is still a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from Nancheng. It will take at least three months before they can fight over. No matter how strong they are, , General Zhenguo will also have to resist for a while."
Lu Qi and Lu Jue had nowhere to use their strength because they did not follow Li Junche to the battlefield. When they heard about the enemy, their blood immediately boiled.
Seeing that Song Zhiyuan was a little quiet, as if he was worried about something, Mu Mingqian couldn't help but ask, "Do you have no confidence in the princess?"
The current South City cannot be broken even if Usakana's 200,000 troops come, so there is no need to worry too much.
Song Zhiyuan raised his head slightly, looked at him and shook his head, "I'm not worried about Nancheng."
Mu Mingqian was a little confused, "Then what are you worried about?"
Song Zhiyuan gave Mu Mingqian a look and led him to his room, "There are eighteen cities between Nancheng and Yuebei City. When the Snow Country army really hits the wall of Nancheng, it means that these eighteen cities will All the cities were lost, the 200,000 troops in the isolated city were wiped out, and the people didn’t know how many people were going to die. How could you not worry about me?”
Mu Mingqian closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead with his hands. They were on King Che's side, and the princess had gunpowder in hand. Even if all eighteen cities were lost and the 200,000 troops were defeated, the threat to them would not be great.
But what Song Zhiyuan said was right. Do we really want to let these people die under the sword of the Snow Kingdom army in order to suppress King Heng?
"Do you want the princess to help General Wei?"
"As long as the princess sends someone to send some gunpowder, nothing will happen to the isolated city. It would be great if the general of Zhenguo could stand on King Che's side, quietly deal with King Heng, and blame Snow Country first. "Song Zhiyuan's voice became smaller and smaller, his eyes staring at the ground.
However, Wei Ming was only loyal to the emperor and would not attack Li Yuheng.
When the two left the room, they happened to see Fei Yi walking out of the room opposite.
And He Shi was waiting not far away, and the two left together. That was not the direction to the back hall.
The warehouse where the gunpowder was stored was opened by Fei Yi from the outside, and He Shi led people to put the gunpowder inside into boxes and carry them to the car.
Fei Yi stood aside and watched. Most of it was emptied at once, and he was about to get busy again. He warned cautiously: "Remember to be careful when transporting."
He Shi nodded in agreement.
On the sheepskin map hanging on the wall of the study room, the words "Yunbeicheng" are drawn in red circles.
The geographical location of Yunbei City is between Nancheng and Yuebei City. It is surrounded by water on three sides. With the convenience of waterways, it is considered to be a relatively good city in the north of Beidi Kingdom.
The main thing is that crossing the river passes to its south.
Taking the waterway, it only takes three days to go down the river from Nancheng to Yunbeicheng.
The next day, when Mu Mingqian and Song Zhiyuan came to report the matter to Wen Jinhe, they found that He Shi, who had always been guarding outside, was missing, leaving only Zhao Bi.
Thinking of the scene he saw yesterday, when leaving, Song Zhiyuan raised his head and stared into Zhao Bi's eyes and asked, "Did He Shi leave the city?"
Zhao Bi glanced at Wen Jinhe sitting in the hall, lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "The princess asked him to go to Yunbeicheng."
Song Zhiyuan's eyes flashed, and he immediately walked out quickly, found Fei Yi in the gunpowder manufacturing room, and asked him: "Did He Shi take away a lot of gunpowder yesterday?"
Fei Yi looked around at Western Zhou Dynasty and blinked warily, "Please keep your voice down. It was the princess's order to empty out most of the gunpowder in the warehouse."
Mu Mingqian asked Song Zhiyuan in a panic: "Why didn't the princess tell us such a big thing?"
He Shi brought gunpowder to Yunbeicheng. Could it be that he was going for the Snow Country army?
Song Zhiyuan had a faint smile on his face, "Trying to unite with the general to kill the eldest prince is not a small crime. It is normal for the princess not to let more people know, but when did King Che convince Wei Ringing?"
Song Zhiyuan was very puzzled by this point. He was a tough guy. If he wanted to stand in line, he would have stood up long ago. Why did he wait until now?
In the study, Wen Jinhe was considering whether to attack Snow Country.
Usakana led troops to go on an expedition. If Snow King Wu Saying was killed at this time, would Usakana withdraw his troops and return to inherit the throne before sending another person to go out?
Or should I insist on not going back and must defeat the Beidi Kingdom before going back?
Wen Jinhe opened the drawer and opened the letter sent by the secret guard yesterday. Archer meant to wait until Wei Ming asked her for help before helping him and taking the person under his command first.
If the other party lowers his head, coupled with the grace of saving his life, the power of gunpowder, and the combination of grace and power, Wei Ming will have to switch sides no matter how upright he is.
Moreover, in order to kill Li Yuheng or cripple him in Gucheng, Wen Jinhe or Wei Ming could not do it. Usakana could solve the problem with his own hands.
