Chen Leng and Meng Chang'an walked side by side towards the camp, and the two of them discussed how to fight the enemy as they walked.

"Xin Fengyue's army has a large number of people, but it is only a large number of people."

Chen Leng said: "The most elite army of the Black Martial Arts is the South Courtyard Camp, all of which are in the hands of Sangburu. Sangburu brought 300,000 elite troops. The army left on Yeluyuan to resist General Wu Xinyu should not exceed 300,000. After the Black Martial Arts' North Courtyard Camp was destroyed, the black martial arts army outside the ancient city, plus the Yeluyuan side are already the limit that the Black Martial Arts can get together now, and more."

Chen Leng glanced at Meng Chang'an: "Besides, the 500,000 people in Xin Fengyue's hands are not considered a real army. Xin Fengyue claims that he can dispatch billions of believers under an order. He asked these billions of believers to donate money to him. I believe that he asked these billions of believers to fight with him. I don't believe that if he could bring one million people, Xin Fengyue would not bring five hundred thousand, since it would bring five hundred thousand."

Meng Changan nodded: "Since he brought 500,000 people, it means he can only dispatch 500,000 people, and there are 500,000 new recruits."

Chen Leng nodded: "So this battle is not the Sambrü who has few people, but the Xin Fengyue who has many people."

"I'll guard the south."

Meng Chang'an stepped forward: "You go to the north."

Chen Leng curled his lips: "Why?"

"Stone scissors?"

Meng Chang'an stopped and looked back at Chen Leng: "One game determines the outcome."

Chen Lenghehe: "I'm afraid of you?"

The two looked at each other, Meng Changan counted one, two or three, and the two attacked at the same time, Chen Leng gave out scissors and Meng Changan was a stone.

Chen Leng frowned: "This is a coincidence. To be fair, we should win two games in three games."

Meng Changan shook his head: "Can you be shameless?"

Chen Leng: "What if it can't?"

Meng Chang'an: "How many times do you lose? When did you win from childhood to big stone scissors? I can see what you will produce."

Chen Leng sighed: "Or who loses and goes to the south?"

Meng Changan waved his hand: "I said, I don't want to lose, no matter what I do, I don't want to lose."

Shen Leng curled her lips.

Meng Chang'an strode out towards the south of the city without looking back. His voice floated from a distance, and his tone was unparalleled confidence.

"You are not as familiar to me as the people in Heiwu South Courtyard Camp. Even if you are more familiar to me, you will not be better than me."

Chen Leng raised his middle finger to Meng Changan, as if he could see his movements. Meng Changan gestded in a circle behind him, and Chen Leng spat and cursed shamelessly.

In the north of the city, Chen Leng sat on the city wall and looked at the north. He seemed to feel that a war was about to happen and the sky began to cry in advance. The rain was sparse and not heavy but lasting. It started from Chen Leng to the city, and there was still no sign of stopping after an hour. For Ningren, a rain was a good thing. A rain would slow down the arrival of the Black Martial Army. Even if it was only a long time, it was good news for Ningjun.

A urn city was built outside the city gate. The Ning army soldiers on the urn city were adjusting and repairing heavy crossbows. The soldiers knew that a fierce battle would come. Everyone was very nervous. It was not because they were nervous, but because His Majesty was here.

Many trenches were dug outside the city, and it became difficult for the black warriors to charge. Chen Leng sat on the city wall not in a daze, but was in a position where the soldiers were digging trenches from a high place. The width of the trenches was about seven feet, and it was impossible to get through, and it was barely possible to jump. If there was enough time, it would be more wide. The trenches were not a whole but had partitions. There would be about one meter wide between the two trenches for people to pass through.

The defenders on the city wall are also adjusting heavy crossbows according to the trench, and the archers on the archery tower are using arrows to determine the range.

It looks quiet, it's really quiet.

But everyone knows that this tranquility won't last long.

"General."

Chen Ran ran up quickly: "Your Majesty let you go."

Chen Leng nodded, and told Chen Ran to continue staring at the city wall and go down to see the emperor. When he arrived at the center of the city, he found that His Majesty was asking someone to build a high tower. The tower had been completed by about one-third, and it would be completed in about three days. The wooden tower was thirteen or fourteen feet high. Standing on this wooden tower, you can look around the ancient city city, and you can see the enemy's dispatch on all sides.

The emperor stood under the tower and looked up at the soldiers tied up wooden stakes. Dai Fangzhou stood beside the emperor with an oil-paper umbrella. Chen Leng walked over, and the rain hit the black armor and made a sound of slapping.

The sky is ink-colored, and the iron armor is ink-colored, which looks like an ink painting.

The emperor pointed to the tower in front of him: "I stand here and use the sound of drums to inform you of the enemy's movements, and I will be in the middle to dispatch it."

Chen Leng lowered his head: "I would rather Your Majesty go back to Sanyan Hushan Pass."

"That's about starting over."

The emperor smiled: "There is not so much life to start over and start over again. It's a matter of losing after losing the bet. You haven't lost yet. Do you think I'm a gambler?"

Chen Leng shook his head: "A person has been a gambler since he was born, and everyone is a winner in life. When he was a child, he cried and laughed and bet on the attitude of adults to treat himself. Then he bet on youth, then on health, and finally on life and death. People bet on everything at all times, and life and big events in life are all bets. Chen Ran told his minister yesterday that he also bet on a bet on it. His stomach hurts, and that is a big deal. He won."

The emperor was stunned.

Chen Leng continued: "Because I won, I was arrogant, but the second one was not a fart."

He said expressionlessly, and the emperor could not bear it even though he could not hold it back: "Hahahaha, you young people."

Chen sneered: "Your Majesty is still young."

The emperor looked at him: "My children are as old as you, so how young are they?"

Chen Leng said: "A man is only as young as His Majesty's age."

Emperor: "Your skill in flattery is also self-taught?"

Chen Leng replied: "The main thing is that he has good talent."

The emperor thought to himself, would I flatter?

The emperor smiled and said, "You can still tell jokes to prove that you are not so frightened. The number of enemies does not make you afraid. I am very pleased."

Chen Leng said: "The main reason is that Your Majesty is here, I am embarrassed to run away."

The emperor sniffed and was amused by Chen Leng again: "Your mouth is so bad, sweet and sweet."

Chen Leng laughed.

The emperor pointed to the front: "Follow me."

Chen Leng lowered his head and said, "Abide by the order."

The emperor took the oil-paper umbrella in Dai Fangzhou's hand and supported himself. He walked in front and followed behind, and was half a step behind, not far or near, always like this.

The emperor said as he walked, "It suddenly rained this day, and I suddenly remembered that when you were a child, you grew up in Yulin Town. Is the weather there impermanent?"

"yes."

Chen Leng replied: "The sun shines brightly in the morning. I don't know where the clouds will rain. It's cloudy at noon. A gust of wind in the afternoon might blow away the clouds. Once, I picked up a lot of river clams in the shallow water by the river and roasted them. There was no ingredients, but it was meat at all. It was really no way to eat it. I would want to vomit if I eat too much. But I couldn't eat it yet. If I don't eat it, I wouldn't have the strength to bake it. That time, I baked a little bit more. Before I finished eating, I wrapped the remaining leaves and buried it in the sand by the river. I was afraid that I wouldn't find it, so I peed not far away and peeded a pit to mark it. As a result, it rained when I left. When I came back, I couldn't find the pit, but I didn't find it. I regretted it for a long time. I had known that the pit would be deeper."

The emperor laughed loudly, and his smile suddenly stiffened on his face. He stopped and looked at Chen Leng's eyes. Chen Leng was still laughing, but when His Majesty looked at him like this, he didn't dare to laugh anymore.

"You suffered when you were a kid."

The emperor reached out to touch Chen Leng's face. Chen Leng subconsciously hid back for a while. The emperor was stunned and finally just patted Chen Leng's shoulder.

"There is one thing I haven't told you, and it's been a few years."

The emperor walked forward again, and said as he walked, "I know you are an orphan, I know you suffered a lot of hardships and grievances when you were a child, you also know that you have received a lot of rewards for the country, and I can't even promote you too quickly when you are a official position and a title. So I asked Han Huanzhi to send someone to Yulin Town, Jiangnan Road to inquire about your childhood."

Chen Leng stopped subconsciously.

The emperor said, "I think that there should be many evil people in that place. Since there are many evil people, evil people will naturally be punished. I ordered the Tingwei Mansion to investigate thoroughly and all those who bullied you when you were a child will be imprisoned."

Chen Leng hurriedly said, "No, no, the villagers treat me well."

"It's not good, but there are some bad things after all. I've done all those who bully you."

The emperor glanced at Chen Leng and continued to walk forward: "The people from the Tingwei Mansion reported it to me and realized that it was not what I thought, so I didn't do all the people in Yulin Town."

As if he was afraid that Chen Leng would hear something was wrong, the emperor explained: "I am the emperor of Daning, and I do not allow young illegal people to exist."

It was okay to hear this from Chen Leng, but I was worried for the villagers of Yulin Town. If Meng Chang'an heard it, it would definitely shock Meng Chang'an was taken away by an old Taoist when he was a child and sent to Chang'an Yanta Academy. The old Taoist said something strange on the way. Meng Chang'an remembered some, for example, the old Taoist said that Longyou was trapped here in shallow water, and the people in Yulin Town would have great disasters, which was a punishment of heaven.

Your Majesty’s wrath is heaven’s punishment.

Fortunately, Chen Leng is treated well by most people after all.

The old Taoist also said that there are changes in appearance and destiny, and life and death are not up to heaven, but man.

What is by people?

Fight or not.

The emperor walked to a wooden building in the city and stopped, and looked at the wooden building: "You see, this wooden building is still in the style of Central Plains architecture."

Chen Leng nodded: "Although he has been reduced to the land of black martial arts for nearly a thousand years, there are still many things that cannot be changed."

"You're wrong."

The emperor said: "It cannot be changed because time is not long enough. Time can change everything. The only thing that remains unchanged is that time itself has changed again and again in just a few decades. In the past thousand years, things have changed, and people have changed, and their appearances are different. Chen Leng hopes that you will not change, and you are still like the young man who jumped into the Nanping River and wanted to save Chen Xiaosong."

Chen Leng was shocked, and his Majesty's words seemed to have some meaning.

"I have a saying that if the war is not good, I want you to live, don't rush to speak. I have a very important thing left to you. I have a world of people and hundreds of millions of subjects, but this matter can only be handed over to you."

Chen Leng lowered his head: "Your Majesty said first."

The emperor was silent for a moment, turned around and looked at Chen Leng and said word by word: "If I cannot be saved, don't save me. I need you to go back to Chang'an to assist the second prince Changye, do you understand?"

Chen Leng felt a little distressed and didn't want to answer.
