Princess Wan An
After understanding the reason, no one will question Zhao Xin's actions. The prefect abandoned the city and fled, and Princess Luohe took over Yangcheng in danger. Otherwise, people's hearts would be in chaos and no one would take charge of the overall situation. Yangcheng would be like opening the city gate to the Di people and letting the Di people plunder and massacre the people.
Princess Luohe is in charge of Yangcheng, and will ensure safety for at least a while. Just wait for the border guards to arrive as soon as possible to relieve the danger of Yangcheng.
Zhao Jin was both appreciating the emperor's actions of defending the city and worrying about her safety. He knew very well that the garrison in Yangcheng was only 2,000 at most, and it was just a drop in the bucket for the tens of thousands of Di people who detoured south to raid. Moreover, the Di people who were vicious against the border were cruel. The soldiers of Yangcheng had not been in battle for a long time, so it was too difficult to defend the city.
In the end, the concerns overwhelmed the praise, and in view of the suggestion of the two ministers of the cabinet, the order was ordered by the border guards Qi Lin and Quan Sheng to lead 20,000 troops to Yangcheng to protect the guards.
And give the Luohe Princess the ability to mobilize the troops below the throne.
Even the censors did not object because they knew very well that Princess Luohe might not be able to wait for the army to rescue the lord safely.
Yangcheng,
Perhaps because of the noble person like Princess Luohe who was surrounded by the cruel Di people, the officials in the government office felt much more at ease. Moreover, Princess Luohe did not show that she was not ignorant of the military guarding the city, but was much more competent than their previous prefects.
There has been no war on the border for a long time, and Yangcheng is not a military city. It is mainly famous for its business journey, so the prefect was appointed as the prefect to get a position that seemed bad but was actually lacking in wealth due to its family background.
The money was collected quickly and the exotic beauties he had raised were also abandoned.
Although time was urgent, Zhao Xin did not forget to clean up the Yangcheng Prefecture Office, eliminated all the officials who were mediocre and inaction, and even allowed people to watch, saving her trouble.
She also had people watching the Di caravan, but the staff was already nervous, and it was not clear whether other tribes and countries joined forces with the Di people. She simply asked the people of Yangcheng to watch all the caravans and personally came forward to comfort them.
There was nothing unusual in the caravan. Princess Daxi personally asked their little businessman that as long as she still wanted to do business with Daxi, she would not resist.
In terms of defending the city, Zhao Xin also built Yangcheng into a turtle shell in a short time. If the city wall is thin, it will be piled with sandbags and rice bags. It is not enough, and there is also a large amount of goods. Yangcheng is not short of this thing.
The guards of the important whistle were replaced with her guards, and the spears from the Yangcheng Armory were also moved out, and they were urgently made into simple giants, placed on the city wall, and ordered people to collect iron tools in the city and remade weapons.
After having no worries for the time being, Zhao Xin summoned the officials who were kept by her.
"The Di people detoured south and had captured one city and three counties. Now that the troops are coming to my Yangcheng, do you have any suggestions?"
Zhao Xin asked the officials of Yangcheng to gather ideas because they were more familiar with Yangcheng and borders than Zhao Xin, and they were more or less useful.
Some people proposed to defend Yangcheng to the death and wait for the arrival of the border troops, and there were many more people agreeing, especially because the strictness of the Luohe Princess defending the city made them feel at ease.
Zhao Xin's expression was light and he didn't say anything.
A young man in a small flag soldier uniform came out and bowed his head and said, "I have a plan to relieve the danger of Yangcheng."
Some people frowned, not understanding how to get a soldier to get married.
Zhao Xin looked at him with his jaw on his right hand, "You said."
When the young man finished his plan, everyone present was shocked. This plan was really vicious and hurt the enemy by one thousand and hurting himself by eight hundred.
Due to her identity, Cheng Yue did not dare to look directly at the princess's sage, but he hoped that the princess would agree to this plan, otherwise he would not have tried his best to get in. Princess Luohe's short-term measures to manage Yangcheng proved that she was definitely a person like Huang Taishou who was greedy for life and feared death and was not knowledgeable. On the contrary, she would know people and take responsibility for it, and would definitely pay attention to the safety of Yangcheng.
Although his strategy is risky, he can break the deadlock.
"This idea is good, but..." Hearing the pause in her tone, Cheng Yuexin also trembled slightly, couldn't help but raise her head and face the smiling face of Princess Luohe, "I think it can be done better."
Although there is not the heat of the desert, Hu Yan's mood is not much better, with a gloomy face.
I thought I could attack directly like Taicheng, but I didn't expect that Yangcheng suddenly became as solid as a rock, with tight defense. I had to attack several times but failed. It was five days before they entered Daxi. If they could not capture it, they would have to withdraw quickly according to the king's order to avoid Daxi's army coming. It would be difficult to retreat to the desert when the time came.
But Hu Yan was really unwilling to give up now. Moreover, because he knew that Princess Daxi was in Yangcheng, Hu Yan had given up the idea of looting other cities. The value of a Princess Daxi is more than that of looting several cities, and the significance is greater.
When Hu Yan thought of the rewards and titles he would receive, his heart was very excited and he had to conquer Yangcheng. He said firmly in his heart.
Suddenly his subordinates came to report, "Captain, we caught a man."
***
The war drums sounded,
When Zhao Xin arrived on the city wall, some people were worried about the safety of the princess. However, Zhao Xin now takes over Yangcheng, where she has the highest status, and no one can violate her orders.
