Chapter 1845 Sand City
Chapter 1845 Sand City
The wind is rustling.
Dark clouds obscured the sun.
In the southwestern border of Dashang, [-] cavalry galloped past, leaving the Mobei camp, not knowing where they were going.
Half a day later, in front of the villages, Mobei's iron cavalry arrived and rushed directly into the villages. Except for children and the elderly who were already unable to walk, everyone who could be arrested was taken away, including those who had no hands to tie chickens. strong woman.
For three days in a row, dozens of villages were looted by the Mobei cavalry, and all people and food were looted.
The looted villages were all close to a relatively large city in the southwest border, Shadu City.
In the city, [-] defenders were standing by. After noticing the movement of the Mobei Iron Cavalry, they immediately seized the time to strengthen the fortifications.
At the same time, in the barracks of the army on the Mobei West Road, a cart drove away with siege equipment and headed for the next city.
In the camp, Li Ziye looked down at the siege equipment being pulled away by the cart.
No wonder the Mobei Eighth Division can march so fast. It turns out that their siege equipment has been fully assembled and disassembled, which is really amazing.
"How about it, I've learned Mobei Babu quickly enough, right?"
On the side, Lord Bai Di said calmly, "This is all your Central Plains skills. We took it and improved it, so we can achieve today's results."
"Where did the craftsman come from?"
Li Ziye said in a deep voice, "Without talents in this field, even if you learn it, you won't have the ability to improve."
"I'm going to ask Heavenly Maiden Tantai about that."
Maharaja Baidi replied truthfully, "In recent years, those craftsmen who you look down on in the Central Plains have been poached by her Tantai tribe. That woman is really powerful. After going south, those craftsmen and their research results have become the biggest weapon of our Mobei Eight Divisions against your Great Shang Dynasty."
Speaking of this, Lord Bai Di looked at the people beside him and asked, "There is one thing that I don't understand. Why do you Central Plains people look down on those skilled craftsmen so much?"
"Everything is low, but reading is high."
Li Ziye's face darkened, and he replied, "Scholars, peasants, businessmen, this is the class division that has never changed in our Central Plains. If you study and become an official, you are selected at the top. If you work in agriculture, you are selected at the top. Craftsmen are selected at the bottom. Merchants are only higher than slaves. , is the next choice."
"I don't understand."
Maharaja Bai Di sighed softly, and replied, "You have so many resources in your hands, but you put them there, wasting them for nothing, it's really incredible."
"Don't say it."
Li Ziye didn't want to talk more about this topic. He glanced across the barracks and asked in puzzlement, "Where's Tiannv Tantai? Why haven't I seen her today?"
"In your own account."
Maharaja Bai Di responded, "Tantai Tiannu still has a little injury on her body, she needs time to recuperate."
"I'll go see her."
Li Ziye frowned, turned around and walked towards the tent not far away.
Lord Bai Di followed behind without stopping.
Soon, the two came to Tantai Jingyue's tent. The guard outside the tent saw that Lord Bai Di had come in person, stepped forward to salute, and said respectfully, "I have seen the Lord."
Maharaja Bai Di nodded and asked, "Are your goddesses in the tent?"
"Yes." The guard replied truthfully.
"My Lord"
Just as Lord Bai Di was about to say something, Li Ziye opened the king's tent and walked in behind.
Seeing this, the guard's expression changed, and he was about to attack immediately.
Maharaja Baidi stretched out his hand, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, this is the doctor who treats Tiannv, and he has a bit of a temper."
When the guard heard Bai Di's response, his face softened a little.
Then, Lord Bai Di and the guards entered the tent one after another.
Inside the tent, Tantai Jingyue saw three people breaking in one after another, opened her eyes, and said calmly, "Is there something wrong?"
Li Ziye looked at Tantai Tiannv who was meditating and adjusting her breath on the bed, and frowned again, always feeling that something was wrong, but couldn't say it out.
"fine."
Li Ziye grinned and replied, "I was worried about the injury of the goddess, so I came here to take a look."
"My injury is not serious."
Tantai Jingyue got up, got off the bed, waved her hand, and signaled the guards to go out.
The guard understood his master's intention, and without hesitation, he turned and left the tent.
"Why, Mr. Li is so worried about my injury?"
After the guard left, Tantai Jingyue looked at the person in front of her and asked with a half-smile.
"Of course."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "After all, we are now allies who live together and die together."
"Don't worry, my injury will not affect the battle with Netherland 20 days later." Tantai Jingyue responded.
Li Ziye nodded, did not say any more, just found a reason and left.
The next day.
The army set out, and after a day's march, at sunset, they set up camp again.
Li Ziye finally judged Mobei's purpose based on Mobei's marching direction.
Satu City!
For the next three days, the army stopped and went, getting closer and closer to Shadu City.
And Tantai Jingyue, even when marching, always rides in a carriage and rarely appears in front of people.
Li Ziye always felt that something was wrong, so he went to find Tantai Jingyue several times in a row.
However, every time, Tantai Jingyue was in her tent or carriage, nothing unusual.
late at night.
In the handsome tent, Li Ziye tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
"What, can't sleep?"
On the bed not far away, Lord Bai Di opened his eyes and asked.
"Majesty, do you have any conspiracy?"
Li Ziye sat up and said sternly, "I'm so familiar, tell me, anyway, I can't leave the barracks now, and I can't reveal my secret."
"conspiracy?"
Maharaja Bai Di was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"
Li Ziye observed the rough expression of the big boss in front of him, and for a while, he didn't see anything unusual.
strangeness.
This big bastard doesn't seem to be lying, what is the problem?
at the same time.
Under the dark night, one after another silhouettes flitted past, and in front of a city, five silhouettes flitted to them without stopping, and jumped over the city wall one after another.
Half an hour later, blood flowed out silently from the mansions in the city, dyeing the night red.
At dawn, before dawn, when the army set off, a soldier came and handed over a secret letter.
Lord Bai Di opened the secret letter, and after reading it, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Great!
The army then set off, and the generals mounted their horses, speeding up their march.
"wrong."
On the horse, not long after following the Mobei Iron Cavalry Army, Li Ziye sensitively sensed the abnormality, looked at the sun in the sky, and his face sank.
The direction is wrong!
This direction is not Shadu City, but Pinan City!
The Mobei army changed its marching direction.
Trouble.
"You big businessmen, you have learned to be smart recently."
On the side, Bai Di Maharaja saw that the young people beside him were aware of their purpose, and said calmly, "Defend the city with all your strength, and don't leave the city anymore, and go to reinforce the besieged city, lest my Mobei Iron Rider be on the way to reinforcements Destroy the reinforcements, but in this way, the city you are attacking will be panicked and overly tense, because they know that no reinforcements will come."
At this point, Lord Bai Di glanced at the direction of Shaducheng, and said calmly, "On the battlefield, any mistake may lead to the defeat of the war. You big merchants are too nervous and have lost your calm judgment."
