(38)Brother

Bai Yunqi woke up in time and everyone was relieved. Tian Lingzi almost killed Bai Yunqi with this palm. The happiest thing was Xue Feihong. In the crisis of trouble, the couple rushed to die for each other, just to fight for this point. The gap between the two was negligible.

Xue Feihong, Su Xiangyun and Xu Yuyan were excited around Bai Yun, and the low-key Qin Yushu quietly turned around and went out to the kitchen to make some hot wrinkles. Bai Nianqi, who had just woken up, must have been empty stomach and could not eat greasy food, so Qin Yushu made a bowl of millet porridge.

When the others saw Qin Yushu bringing porridge, they remembered that Bai Yunqi had not eaten yet. Xue Feihong was even more embarrassed. Bai Yunqi called for something to eat when she got up, and she forgot everything she was excited. How to be someone else's wife has to learn more from Qin Yushu.

Bai Yunqi fell asleep again after eating the porridge, but no one of the women wanted to leave. They could only do the same thing. Everyone stayed in the house and took turns to take care of Bai Yunqi.

Although everyone hopes that Bai Yunqi can rest for a few more days, the state crisis, as soon as the dawn, the two cabinet ministers entered Bai Yunqi's room. The situation was urgent. Early in the morning, Jiezhou again reported that the Huns Zhang Chu's coalition forces had already reached a large number of troops. This time the number of coalition forces reached 800,000, which was very meaningful to take Jiezhou in one fell swoop.

Although the women felt distressed, they could not block the door and not allow them to see each other. Bai Yunqi, who was leaning on the bed, was anxious after listening to the reports of the two ministers. His brows on his face were frowned sharply, and he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood and coughed constantly. Xu Yuyan, who was on the side, came up to greet him quickly. Fortunately, Bai Yunqi spit out a mouthful of blood and breathed out, and leaned on the bed to slow down. Bai Yunqi then said:

"From the performance of the Later Wei and Northern Qin, the strength of the Zhang and Chu and Xiongnu coalition forces this time can be predicted. Both countries should have the attitude of watching the fire from the other side of the river. They can take advantage of it when our country and the coalition forces fight to the death, so we can ignore them for the time being. The coalition forces are coming from afar, and their morale is in full swing, which is conducive to urgent wars. Our army cannot fight easily."

Bai Yunqi paused when he said this, his face pale and afraid of others. The two ministers wanted to persuade Bai Yunqi to take a break first, but Bai Yunqi signaled that it would not matter.

"The following things are about to be done now. The first is to mobilize the whole country immediately. Within one month, I will see that 500,000 troops can go to the battlefield. Second, I will notify the direction of Jiezhou and immediately let the local people move, strengthen the walls and clear the fields. Once the Dingbian is lost, I will defend Jiezhou to the death and use Panlong Mountain as a stronghold to continuously send small troops to harass the coalition's food route. Third, Jiezhou has a relationship with the overall situation and needs a serious official of the court to take charge. Who do you think of?"

This question is very sensitive. Although the information says that the coalition forces are just under the brink of troops, the fastest horse from Jiezhou to Beijing took five days to run continuously. The information we get is five days ago. The current real situation in Jiezhou is unclear, so the risks borne by the ministers sent are also huge.

After hearing Bai Yunqi's words, Kong Beihai hesitated for a moment and stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have experienced the past Jiezhou last time, and I know the situation. I'll go this time."

Bai Yunqi thought for a while and shook his head, "Mr. Kong, you can't go. The mobilization that will be carried out immediately cannot be separated from you. Please send someone else to you. You can teach you about the Minister of War Bai."

Bai Yunfan actually entered the palace early in the morning and is waiting outside now. In a short while, Bai Yunfan came in. When he saw Bai Yunqi want to salute, Bai Yunqi waved and said, "No need, brother, you are here to be a fool."

"His Majesty……"

Bai Yunfan saw Bai Yunqi's face look ugly. He was about to give me a condolence, but Bai Yunqi said first: "Brother, you should call me Lao Qi in private. I think you are clear about the current situation. Now in the Jiezhou crisis, I need someone to help me stare at that. Can you work hard?"

After Bai Yunqi ascended the throne, Bai Yunfan was always careful in being a person and acting very cautiously. He never dared to show off his identity as the king's brother. After all, he was still afraid of Bai Yunqi's suspicion. Now seeing Bai Yunqi like this, everything between the brothers has returned. When the country is in a dilemma, it seems that the two of them are back when they were together.

"Lao Qi, if you can trust me, your brother will sell you my life." Now going to Jiezhou is no different from dying. Bai Yunfan saw Bai Yunqi like this, and he was slightly moved when he spoke.

"Hehe, brothers fighting tigers, father and son soldiers, this time we join forces to play a beautiful game for the world." Bai Yunfan's attitude was very clear and his tone was firm.

"Okay, brother, I'll be relieved if you can go. This time I go to Jiezhou, I just need you to guard it for a month so that I can arrange everything calmly. Jiezhou originally had 80,000 defenders, but now I'll give you another 70,000 people. The faster you set off, the better." Bai Yunqi was a little worried, so he made the task clear first.

In fact, Bai Yunqi may not be ready for a counterattack in a month, but now I can only say that it is still unknown how long Bai Yunfan can stay in the state after he understands the situation.

Bai Yunfan, who received the mission, immediately left the palace. He went home and briefly explained it to the barracks. The 70,000 troops that had already been assembled were waiting for him. This time, Bai Yunqi gave Bai Yunfan's 70,000 troops were basically elite in the capital. The 10,000 Thunderbolt chariots had 50,000 Thunderbolt chariots, ten thousand strong crossbow soldiers equipped with five consecutive crossbows, and fifty thousand infantry. Considering that this time it was mainly defense, Bai Yunqi did not send cavalry to Bai Yunfan.

The army set off overnight. Bai Yunqi, who had arranged everything, suddenly softened. This time he was injured very much, and he forced himself to support them all out. As soon as the person relaxed, he was exhausted and spurted out blood again. Fortunately, the three old men were there, and they immediately came in to treat Bai Yunqi's luck. When Bai Yunqi felt better, Izumoko advised him to be anxious that he could not solve the problem. It would be better to rest more and recover as soon as possible.

The army had just left the capital, and the distant Dingbian City was already in danger.

The coalition's fierce attack has been going on for three days. Walking on the walls of Dingbian City, the guard general Gengzhicheng was anxious as if burning fire. After two days of fierce fighting, only 10,000 were left. Dingbian City is the focus of defense and the gateway to Jiezhou. It has done a solid job in daily combat preparations. Although the coalition came this time, Gengzhicheng still held on for three days. Fortunately, there are still two hundred thunderbolt cars and tens of thousands of thunderbolt bullets in the city, otherwise Gengzhicheng really didn't know what to use to defend the city.

Taking advantage of the darkness of the coalition forces, Gengzhicheng asked his brothers to rest quickly and sent out additional posts to prevent the coalition forces from attacking at night. After patrolling around, Gengzhicheng also found a corner and sat down. Gengzhicheng, who had not closed his eyes for three days, was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he sat down.

His upright sleep and almost broke, the Jiezhou Army General sent him an urgent report and ordered him to retreat to Jiezhou immediately. The current situation could only concentrate his troops to defend.

The tents of the coalition forces were brightly lit. Commander Zhang Chu and the commander of the Huns were discussing how to fight tomorrow's battle. To be honest, Mr. Ning Da did not agree with the alliance with the Huns. The repeated persuasion was ineffective. Li Hao was annoyed by him, so he simply asked Mr. Ning Da to take charge and lead the army of 500,000 to the war.

Duanmu Ming was able to go to the battlefield again this time, thanks to the help of Tian Lingzi. The Xiongnu, who had never been able to decide on the issue of the crown prince, after Tian Lingzi talked with Khan once, Tian Lingzi believed that the sluggish position of the crown prince was not good for the stability of the country. The Xiongnu Khan then made up his mind to establish the crown prince as soon as possible. This time, Duanmu Ming led his troops to fight again. Once he won, Duanmu Ming would not run away, so Duanmu Ming was also very busy and must fight beautifully.

The three-day attack failed to capture the side, which made Duanmu Ming a little depressed. The key was that the thunder chariot, which was so effective in intercepting infantry. The coalition forces had rushed up to the city wall several times, but were shot intensively by the thunder chariot, which bombed the subsequent troops in a mess. The vanguard who could not get support was destroyed by the opponent's counterattack on the city wall, making Duanmu Ming feel so distressed.

However, it is not all bad news after three days of shooting. At least today the launch density of the Pili chariot is much smaller. It is estimated that the bombs are almost used up, so Duanmu Ming came to find Mr. Ning Da, hoping that the two armies will cooperate closely tomorrow and take down Dingbiancheng in one fell swoop.

Mr. Ning Da was actually very dissatisfied with the battle in these three days. According to the intelligence city, there were only 30,000 defenders, but they didn't take them down after three days of fighting. Some of these were related to the long-term battle between the Huns and were not good at attacking the tough guys.

The two of them were kind to each other and soon got to the point.

"Mr. Ning Da, how sure is our army's determination to fight tomorrow?" Duanmu Ming was still very polite to Mr. Ning Da. Mr. Ning Da was a famous minister who assisted Zhang Chu and Chu for many years. He worked the most for Zhang Chu's strength and made the greatest contribution.

"The enemy's defensive weapons are so powerful. We have not yet figured out how that weapon was made. According to my opinion, we will attack at the same time tomorrow. Judging from the launch intensity of the opponent's Thunderbolt Car today, it is estimated that there are not many bombs."

When Mr. Ning Da and Duanmu Ming discussed, Geng Zhicheng had already ordered to start retreating. In order to confuse his opponent, Geng Zhicheng ordered more lights to hang on the city wall, make the illusion of being careful and preventing them, and then let the Pili Car go first. This thing is a treasure, and it can also be of great use to defend against Jiezhou.

At dawn, Bai Yunqi woke up. This time, he opened his eyes and saw a very unexpected person. Duanmu Xiu, the princess of the Huns, didn't know how she got in.
