The murderous look on Xin Ji's face disappeared without a trace, and he held the baby in his arms with a look of love on his face. While holding him up in the air with two arms, he carefully whispered:

"Oh, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry anymore."

"The bad guys were beaten away."

"Stop crying~"

The baby seemed to understand Xin Ji's words, his voice gradually became quieter, and he was still cheerful.

Who would have thought that the murderous deputy governor of Liaodong still had such a tender side. Although his movements in holding the baby were stiff, his expression looked extremely gentle.

"Come on, come on, go find some food for the child! Then ask the medical officer to check if there are any injuries on the child's body, and finally send him to my tent."

"promise!"

Xie Xiaolei said softly: "Xin Duhu, do you want to adopt this child yourself?"

"Um."

Xin Ji nodded calmly and murmured:

"I spent the first half of my life in Xinji under the siege and interception of Beijin, living a life where I didn't know if there would be a tomorrow even if I lived today, so I didn't have a wife and I had no children.

Since this baby is an orphan, I will keep it in my house so that I can have someone to rely on when I grow old."

Xie Xiaolei nodded, feeling a little bit lucky for the girl, it was better than dying in the ruins of this city.

"Okay, that's something to talk about later."

Xin Ji turned around behind his back and said in a deep voice: "Let's talk about the war. What do you think of the Yan army's entry from Chifeng City?"

Xie Xiaolei glanced at the broken limbs and broken arms around him. His eyes were full of blood, and he said coldly:

"The general's guess is correct. I am afraid that Pinghan Road has been controlled by the Yan people. Otherwise, tens of thousands of cavalry would have attacked without anyone noticing."

"I think so too."

Xin Ji nodded: "Not only did the Chang family not send any warning, but Wentiansi's spies hidden in Pinghan Road never sent any news.

It is obvious that the Yan army should have been attacking continuously since they entered Pinghan Road, so they were one step ahead of the intelligence."

"If Pinghan Dao is really completely controlled by the Yan people, what about the Chang family?" Xie Xiaolei frowned.

No one knows the situation of the Pinghandao defenders now, but Chang Jingan who stayed behind in Hanzhou City is likely to be in danger. According to Xinji's understanding of Chang Jingan, there is no way that he can leave the Chang family members and escape on his own.

If Pinghan Road falls completely, the Chang family's border troops who are marching south will be in danger. With hundreds of thousands of troops without logistics and military supplies, I can't even imagine the consequences.

"Alas~"

Xin Ji sighed heavily: "We don't have time to worry about the Chang family's situation now, we are in a mess too.

Although the Yan army has been temporarily repelled by us, it will come back soon. By then it will no longer be a silver falcon flag with a yellow background, and the Yan army may come with all its strength.

But we don't have many troops on hand.

Your galloping thunder cavalry fought fiercely all day and night, suffering heavy casualties. They are in urgent need of rest and replenishment. They cannot fight again in a short time. The thousands of cavalry I brought with me were improvised from various cities. They are fine for small battles, but they cannot be used as field troops.

Fighting against the Eight Banners of the Yan Army.

There are not many defenders in Shuntan Prefecture, and all the elite troops are gathered on the front line of Luoyun City. Where can we mobilize troops to block the Yan army? We can't mobilize the new soldiers who joined the army to Chifeng City, right?"

Xin Ji's brows furrowed. Liang Jun now had the impression that the Clay Bodhisattva would not be able to save himself when crossing the river.

Although Xin Ji is the Protector of Liaodong and holds the military power of the four states, in the entire Liaodong, Luoyun City must be defended, the Yunjin Defense Line must be defended, and Jianmen Pass must be defended. Soldiers and horses are needed everywhere, and now there is another Chifeng.

The city must be defended.

Chifeng City is different from Luoyun City. The city wall is neither tall nor strong, and it is not surrounded by mountains as a support. It is not an easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack place. How many troops and horses must be mobilized to firmly defend this place?

Sad, sad!

Xie Xiaolei said solemnly: "Whether we can hold it or not, we can't hesitate now. We must immediately mobilize troops and horses to rush to Chifeng City. It will be too late. As soon as Zhou Weiran's reinforcements arrive, there is a high probability that they will counterattack. We don't have much time."

.

I suggest that Ben Leiqi and the cavalry brought by the general should not move, and all the cavalry should be stationed in place. Another military order should be sent to Shuntan Prefecture, so that each of the two places should immediately dispatch 10,000 infantry troops to the front line, even if it is to take Tanzhou City,

The garrison of Anshun City can also be transferred.

It is best to send a message to the Infantry Commander of the Right Cavalry Army and ask the Right Cavalry Army to mobilize 10,000 elite cavalry and rush to Chifeng City immediately."

"Well, what you said makes sense." Xin Ji nodded. Although the right cavalry cannot be mobilized at will in normal times, but now that the Yan army has attacked, Chifeng City has been lost, and the current situation in Liaodong is extremely critical, Xin Ji has the right to mobilize the right cavalry.

Military campaign.

"By the way, there's one more thing."

Xie Xiaolei suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "When our army rushed to the aid of Chifeng City, we fought with the Yellow-backed Silver Falcon Banner outside the city. Then the Yan army was defeated and the main force fled into Chifeng City. However, there were probably two to three thousand people along the way.

The defeated troops fled in all directions, these Yan troops must be dealt with."

Xie Xiaolei had a little worry on his brows. Two or three thousand people would not have a big impact on the army's campaign, but for the rural people, these barbarians could wipe out their whole family.

"Don't worry, all cities have been strictly ordered to stay closed and pay attention to the movements of the Yan people. The crossbowmen have already gone to track these Yan thieves. Once their traces are found, their heads will be used to commemorate Chifeng City.

Dead people!"

A strong murderous intention flashed in Xin Ji's eyes, and the large group of soldiers fled, but these fleeing soldiers could not get out of Liaodong even if they had wings.

Hearing this, Xie Xiaolei felt relieved, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Di Jiang, pass my military order!"

"The end is here!"

"First: Immediately notify the entire territory of Liaodong that the Yan army is attacking. People throughout the territory need to be vigilant and are not allowed to go out at will. The defenders in each city will prepare for war immediately and be ready to send troops to annihilate the defeated troops of the Yan army entering the country.

Second: Send two 800-mile urgent military information, and quickly inform Beiliang Xue Duhu and the prince who is fighting on the front line of the border situation, and ask the prince to decide on the next border war arrangement.

Third: Send an order to the two prefectures of Shuntan. From now on, the two prefectures will each send additional reinforcements to Chifeng City. When the military order is issued, within three days, the troops must set off! Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy!

Fourth: Notify the Hulucheng infantry commander and hope that the right cavalry army will quickly send more troops to the front line. The towns along the way must provide military food supplies in a timely manner.

Fifth: Boss Boy and Leng Sicheng of the Department of Arms and Preparation, please report to Chifeng City day and night to allocate military supplies and supplies for the army to fight."

"promise!"

Military orders came out of Xin Ji's mouth one after another, and Di Jiang accepted the orders without hesitation, his eyes extremely solemn.

The sooner the reinforcements arrive at the front line, the sooner they can feel at ease.

Xin Ji, with a murderous look on his face, slowly turned his head to look eastward and said coldly:
Chapter completed!
