Ye Li looked up at the man in white standing on the city tower, and a faint smile slowly appeared on her lips. Her right hand raised slightly, and a soft voice spread throughout the battlefield, "Siege!"

On the city tower, Mo Xiuyao looked helplessly at the army that had already begun to attack the city. Yuan Pei, who was standing next to him, couldn't help laughing, and looked at Mo Xiuyao with a smile and said, "Prince, it seems that we have not finished this battle yet."

Mo Xiuyao smiled bitterly and said, "What the old general said is that I am so happy too early." If the exercise regulations are followed, it will naturally be the time when the city is broken and they will win. But since it is acting, it is naturally to train these new recruits to the maximum extent. Moreover, there is no regulation on the battlefield that the city cannot be regained after it is broken. So a vigorous siege battle kicked off again.

This time the siege battle was more difficult than Mo Xiuyao's previous siege. The soldiers and horses on both sides fought for seven days without a winner.

In the end, he could only declare a draw, because Mo Xiuyao's city had no military rations anymore. This was a completely lonely city. Although there was no people who needed to consume additional food, it also meant that there was absolutely no food in the city other than the military rations they brought. Yuan Pei "destroyed" the food that originally belonged to the defenders as early as the day the city was broken. Mo Xiuyao's subordinates did not stop losing their troops, but even had no food to defend the city. The army outside the city was not necessarily better. They were accidentally destroyed by the people sent by Mo Xiuyao for a moment.

In the end, no one was willing to admit defeat, and he was almost exhausted. The old general Yuan Pei had to come out and stop. In the end, the two sides agreed that the draw was a draw.

When the King Ding and Princess Ding on the city tower announced the end of the exercise, many soldiers couldn't help crying with joy. Of course, this was not because they felt that they had won, but because they could finally have a meal. There were still a large amount of food and grass piles inside and outside the city, but they had to watch the brothers who were "dead" who were so popular that they were so spicy that they had no food.

.This day is really ten times more sad than a real food outage. As soon as the exercise was over, everyone ignored everything and set up camps and cooked rice. The soldiers who were fighting fiercely just now were hello, and everyone was happy. Especially when they saw the other party's eyes turned green with hunger, a different kind of comrade-in-arms arose.

In the small town, the generals who had just eaten and drunk enough gathered together, because the siege between the two sides had lasted for too long, and even Lu Jinxian, who had already returned, ran back to watch the battle. Now that the battle has been completed, both sides have their own victory and defeat, and no one can stand up to the face, so they are still happy.

However, the young generals of the Eastern Army who followed Ye Li before looked at Ye Li, who was still dressed in white men's clothing, and his eyes were a little dazed. A few days ago, I was so busy that I was so busy that I had no intention of caring about it. Now that the young man remembered that he had been ignorant or unintentionally excluded and ridiculed by them before, and even led them to agree that General Lu's young man was the princess they had always admired. Such a strong impact made the group of young men feel bad.

"King...Princess..." Several young people pushed me and I pushed you and finally pushed an unlucky person. "Princess, my subordinates were blinded before, offended the princess, and asked the princess to sue him."

Zhang Qilan glanced at a few incompetent juniors and said, "You guys are so embarrassed to say it? I'm asking to be polite to the princess. What have you done?" Everyone stared at him silently. You said that Mr. Chu is not the princess? Looking at the aggrieved eyes of the young people, Zhang Qilan also became silent, and smiled at Ye Li and said, "Why... Princess, my subordinates didn't explain this to them clearly. Please don't be surprised by the princess."

Ye Li smiled and said, "General Zhang is so serious. This is what I mean by myself. Moreover, young people are inevitably young and energetic. General Zhang and all the generals have good teachings. These young generals are also good seedlings." After being praised by the princess, everyone only felt the corners of their mouths twitching. They are not wrong with being young, but most of them are older than the princess who are just twenty-one or two years old. When such princesses said to be young and energetic, everyone couldn't help but blush. Yun Ting, on the side, silently complained in his heart: What are you? The princess was only fifteen or sixteen years old when he met the princess.

When Ye Li praised this, the other generals also smiled. Although these young people followed Zhang Qilan this time, they were not all Zhang Qilan's generals. Among them were Lu Jinxian, Yuan Pei, and even Sun Yan, who was stationed in Feihong Pass. They were all elites in the younger generation, and they were praised for their superiors and felt faced.

When the young men heard that the princess said they would not blame him, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. The young people were curious, and even though they were far away, they all thought they had secretly looked at the princess. After all, they had heard about Princess Ding before they entered the Mo family army. They never thought that one day they would see her with their own eyes or even fight against Princess Ding? But they didn't know that their self-concealed behavior had long caused someone to be displeased. So when they returned to the army, they were thrown into a training camp and tossed for two or three months. They could only think that the generals were dissatisfied with their performance in their exercises.

After the exercise, Zhang Qilan and Lu Jinxian were left to clean up the aftermath, and Mo Xiuyao took Ye Li, Feng Zhiyao and others back to Licheng.

Before he could enter the study, he met Mr. Qingchen who was coming towards him. Just look at his face and knew that Mr. Qingchen was very dissatisfied with the act of throwing the government affairs of the northwest to him as soon as he had an irresponsible prince. He glanced calmly at Mo Xiuyao, who looked better than usual after nearly half a month of marching and fighting. Xu Qingchen asked indifferently: "It seems that the prince is doing well these days?"

Mo Xiuyao smiled happily and said, "I haven't moved for several years, and it's really good to have a rare activity." Xu Qingchen smiled indifferently, "What? Then congratulations to the prince, the prince can often move in the future."

Uh? What does it mean? Mo Xiuyao looked at Xu Qingchen in confusion. Xu Qingchen sighed and raised the war report he had just obtained: "The Great Chu army lost consecutive battles in the northern border, and in less than a month, it was defeated by the northern border army in four cities."

Mo Xiuyao was silent for a moment, raised his head and smiled faintly at Xu Qingchen, saying, "This has nothing to do with us." The Mo family army and Da Chu have long been ruthless, and it has nothing to do with them what the Da Chu fights.

Xu Qingchen nodded and said calmly: "Your Majesty knows it. In addition, news came from Beirong that the Beirong army was also ready to move. Once the Great Chu was not good for the war in the northern border, Beirong would definitely go south in the spring next year." Mo Xiuyao listened to Xu Qingchen's words and kept heading towards the study room, asking: "What is the news about Nanzhao?" Xu Qingchen said: "The prince of Zhennan led an army of 300,000 and has already deployed troops to the Nanzhao border. The two countries are in a confrontation, and it is still unknown when the battle will begin."

"Can the war start?" Mo Xiuyao turned around and asked.

Xu Qingchen was silent for a while and replied in a deep voice: "Yes."

Mo Xiuyao paused and said, "Okay, once the war starts in Xiling, I believe there will be no time to take care of him for a while."

Feng Zhiyao, who was following behind, frowned and asked, "Prince, should we prepare too?"

Mo Xiuyao thought for a while and nodded, "After the war between Nanzhao and Xiling, a conscription order was issued in the northwest territory." Feng Zhiyao should have said that Xu Qingchen received the look of Mo Xiuyao, shook his head and said, "I don't understand the marching and war, you can do it."

Mo Xiuyao nodded and said to Feng Zhiyao: "Go and prepare."

After the Dingwang Mansion ruled the northwest, the conscription system implemented after many explorations and reforms were somewhat different from the current military service system. All young people over 18 in the northwest need to serve two years of military service, and after two years of unarmed military service, they still have to undergo one month of military training every year. The most important thing is that the two-year military service is not only ordinary people, businessmen, and even scholars. However, scholars can shorten it to one year as appropriate. Therefore, among the students who are over 18, those who have already served in military service are now.

In addition, the Mo family army has a permanent army of 900,000. The soldiers in these troops are those who have served for more than five years and have a military service period of thirty years or even longer. They are the real combat power of the Northwest. Moreover, they are different from the two-year conscripts who have no military pay and most soldiers from various countries who have basically no military pay. They have a certain amount of military pay every month and have a certain pension after death. Although this Dingwang Mansion has caused certain financial pressure, the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the Mo family army on the other hand.

Although it is not enough to be compared to the other three countries that are often millions of soldiers and horses, the Mo family army is sandwiched between the Three Kingdoms. However, once the battle is really started and the conscription order is issued, the Ding Prince's Mansion can also organize a million formally trained army in an instant. Although the combat effectiveness may not be comparable to that of the real Mo family army, it is definitely not comparable to that of some troops who have just been pulled into the army and went to the battlefield. At least they have been trained by real Mo family generals.
