492: Fire Attack (2 more)
As long as Mrs. Meng thinks about it in the position of the empress, if she is in the position of the queen and wants to perform the deep love between husband and wife in front of the emperor, Mrs. Meng will feel disgusted and want to vomit.
It's really not easy for the Empress.
Mrs. Meng looked up and wanted to talk to her son Meng Huaijin, but found that Meng Huaijin was distracted.
"Huai Jin, you..."
Meng Huaijin stood up, "My son is thinking about Xiao Yunting's illness. Logically, his son has already visited him personally. For some reason, he just can't fully trust Xiao Yunting."
All the troubles Xiao Yunting did were based on the premise that he could last until he was thirty years old?
If Xiao Yunting lives less than thirty years old, what will happen to Xiao Yunting!
Meng Huaijin thought this way and opened the note he received in the palace today.
The handwriting on the note was graceful and firm, and there was no earnest advice, just wrote "wait".
What are you waiting for?
Did he tell him not to be impatient and wait patiently?
Meng Huaijin burned the note.
He could wait. The situation in Huainan was so bad, how could Cheng Qing wait?
Thinking that Cheng Qing might have already run into Changqian Thief head-on at this time, Changqian Thief would not care whether Cheng Qing was the top scorer with the six-yuan ranking. He killed him as soon as he said he could kill him. Meng Huaijin's chest felt a little stuffy.
He left the hall and walked into the study alone, twisted the pen on the shelf to wash the ornaments. The bookshelf turned, revealing a black tunnel.
It was dark, as if there was something terrible monster hidden.
The Meng family’s house is very ordinary in the capital, but I didn’t expect that there was such a secret passage hidden in the secret passage of the mechanism!
The beautiful and beautiful Master Shaoqing was very familiar with this tale and walked in without hesitation.
...
Hong County.
The Long Scarf Thief just launched its third attack.
Cheng Qing led Hongxian to withstand the attack of Changqian Thief again. Changqian Thief did not get any benefits, and Hongxian did not gain much advantage.
Cheng Qing was also puzzled. The Changshuang Thief had been staying outside the city for two days and launched three attacks on Hong County... Was it completely exhausted Hong County?
I am not afraid of Huai'an sending reinforcements!
Cheng Qing was hoping that the Huai'an Association would send reinforcements. Now Hongxian and Changqian thieves are in a stalemate. Hongxian County has no troops to go out of the city to chase the Changqian thieves, and the Changqian thieves cannot attack the city for a while. Cheng Qing urgently needs a third party force to join in to break the deadlock, so that she can rob the Changqian thieves in turn!
Not only Cheng Qing, but also Lang Qianhu thought so.
The Changqian Thief attacked three times in the past two days, and Hongxian also defended three times. Lang Qianhu also had an estimate of the strength of the Changqian Thief.
The commander who commands the opponent's troops has limited ability, and after all, he only has the three tricks.
The thieves are not very military literacy. A group of mobs dare to be arrogant because of their large numbers. If Lang Qianhu has five thousand regular soldiers, he will definitely rush to the city to kill the long scarf thief without leaving any armor.
"Sir, this battle is too frustrating!"
Lang Qianhu chewed the jerky horse meat in his mouth and sat next to the fire and complained to Cheng Qing.
Cheng Qing also sat next to the fire.
It is October now, and it is cold at night. Cheng Qing asked someone to set up a fire on the city wall, which not only prevents the soldiers guarding the city from being cold, but also illuminates the surrounding walls of the fire, so as to prevent the spies from approaching Hong County in the night.
After hearing Lang Qianhu’s complaints, Cheng Qing laughed:
"Mr. Qianhu, our initial goal was to defend Hong County. This goal is now achieved. The county can be self-sufficient in food and water, and the army of Changshaozhe cannot always surround us."
The 20,000 s of disaster relief food that Cheng Qing brought was not used much. She allowed wealthy families in the countryside to come to the county to take refuge, so she naturally had to charge them for protection fees.
Landlords in the countryside will not be short of food. If they leave food in the countryside, they will be snatched away by long-scared thieves. Only by transporting the stored food into Hong County can they be retained.
Cheng Qing also encouraged them to pay for the city with food.
There are also large households in the county town who donated money and grain and left to defend the city. The Changwu Thief besieged Hong County for another ten days and a half months, and the people in the county would not starve to death.
But the long scarf thief cannot really stay outside the city for ten or half a month.
This place is still a distance from Huainan. The Changshaw Thief has no supplies and is too close to Huaian City. Huaian has freed up his hands and will send troops to catch up at any time... There is not much time left for the Changshaw Thief.
Cheng Qing stood up, "Lang Qianhu, be alert tonight. If I guess correctly, the thieves will launch another attack tonight. This should be the last attack before the thief evacuated."
After a long period of attack, the long scarf thief could only give up robbing Hong County.
Just hold on tonight.
Of course, the Changshaw Thieves lost a lot of troops and would not be willing to evacuate from Hong County empty-handedly. This last attack must be the most violent!
Lang Qianhu also knew it was amazing and did not dare to be too arrogant. He swallowed the dried horse meat in his mouth, Zheng Keyou.
Cheng Qing thought about it and met Mr. He alone.
"If the city is broken, you will take Miss He out of the city while it is in chaos."
Mr. He thought that Hong County could be defended, but Cheng Qing actually believed that this was the case. However, people would have immediate worries without long-term plans. If they could not defend, the He family's grandparents should have a way out.
After all, the He family's grandchildren came to take risks to help her, so Cheng Qing naturally worried about their safety. If something happened to the He family's grandchildren, Cheng Qing would feel guilty for the rest of his life even if he survived.
Before Mr. He could speak, He Wan walked in. She was wearing an apricot cloak, her shoulders were wet with night dew, and her forehead was covered with thin sweat.
"If you want to leave, go together. How can you just let me and my grandfather escape? Lord Cheng, do you look down on women? Is it true that only men have integrity and women should run away in shame?"
Cheng Qing was amused and crying, "Miss He, you are right, I am wrong."
Why is the little girl so stubborn? What kind of integrity can she be used as a food?
It’s true to save your life!
Even Cheng Qing tried her best to defend the city. If she really couldn't defend it, she wouldn't have hit her head and died in front of the long scarf thief... If she didn't keep her life, everything would be empty.
He Wan smiled brightly, and the corners of her eyes looked like crescent moons:
"Even if I want to escape from the city, the whole of Hong County now knows that I am Lord Cheng's fiancée. Maybe the thief of Changshao knows it too. How could they let me go?"
I can't afford to offend, I can't afford to offend.
He Wan was clever and Cheng Qing couldn't stand the beauty's jokes, so he could only escape in panic.
He Wan saliated softly.
A coward dares to fight with the long scarf thief, but he dares not marry her!
I am not a cannibalized mother Yasha, but I actually scared Cheng Qing so much.
He Wan laughed and hurt her stomach. Old Master He looked at her granddaughter with a doting look on her face, "You, why are you scaring Cheng Qing?"
At the third hour of the ugly moment, when the soldiers guarding the city were most sleepy, they heard the sound of horse hooves.
Fire lights cut through the night and fell into the city wall.
Cheng Qing looked cold.
The long scarf thief finally used this trick.
Fire attacks that harm others and do not benefit oneself can destroy the city, but also burn the food in the city.
The Changwu Thief felt that it would not be able to attack Hong County and did not want to leave the food to Cheng Qing, so he simply set a fire and burn everything!
