The maids who had been waiting outside the door filed in, brought the toiletries into the house one by one, and helped Feng Yu and Xin Moge wash up.
A servant came and asked Simoge to go to the hall.
Simoge goes.
Last night's raid, whether it was Yang Xufan sent by Fan Yinqing or King Xi's side, was very successful.
The two cities had to pretend to surrender before opening the city gates to let Cang Jingtian's army enter. General Xu left his soldiers and horses to control the two cities and rushed to leave the city. Although he did not quite believe the soldiers who opened the city gates and surrendered,
But there was no killing. After all, people's hearts needed to be won over. It was easy for the soldiers left in the city to cooperate with others and bite them back.
When the news came back, Cang Yueli and King Li asked Xin Moge to go to the hall to discuss what to do next.
In the hall, the feudal kings were also present.
"I have met the emperor." Some superficial work still needs to be done. After Xin Moge entered the hall, he first bowed to Cang Yue who was sitting in the front seat. Of course, he did not kneel down, just these four words.
Cang Yue nodded politely, said "no courtesy", and asked Xin Moge to sit down.
Xin Moge sat down first on the left, opposite King Li. Below King Li and below him were other vassal kings.
"The news just came back that the two cities have been recaptured and the city gates have been closed. Cang Jingtian's tens of thousands of troops are unable to fly. But it is not easy to really eat them. I wonder what Prince Xin has to do?" Li Li
Wang was the first to ask.
"Don't worry, just stay trapped. Their tens of thousands of troops are short of water and food. They can't hold on for a few days. If they break through, they will be killed directly."
"You also said that they are short of water and food and can't hold on for a few days. If they are really trapped, they will die anyway. We decided to overwhelm the entire army in a desperate battle. Although we are sure of winning, we will definitely lose our troops.
, the losses are serious, it will be more difficult to deal with Cang Jingtian in the future. What I mean is that it is better for us to find a way to come up with a method with less losses." King Li said again, this is the key point.
Xin Moge's expression did not change, and he already had an idea in his mind, "If they knew that they would die anyway, they would naturally make a desperate move, but if they knew that they still had hope, they would naturally become timid."
"Hope? I wonder if Prince Xin can explain it more clearly?" King Xi interjected.
"I have ordered someone to do it. Someone will go to General Xu in secret tonight. He is a person from Cang Jingtian. Of course, he is now mine. When the time comes, he will take General Xu to Cang Jingtian.
Heaven's order said that the reinforcements had already set off and were already on their way, so he was asked to continue to hold on so that he could cooperate with the incoming reinforcements internally and externally. By then, General Xu would naturally not dare to act rashly and would only hold on and wait for the reinforcements."
"Okay, this is a good idea." The prince of a feudal lord sitting below couldn't help but applaud.
The other feudal lords also nodded in agreement, not bad.
Cang Yueli and King Li also agreed. It was reinforcements, an order from Cang Jingtian, and a message sent personally by Cang Jingtian's people. No matter what, General Xu would not dare to disobey. And if it continues like this
If they persist, they will suffer from hunger and hardship, their military morale will naturally be weakened, and their combat effectiveness will be weakened exponentially. It will be easier to attack again, and they may even be able to defeat themselves without attacking and capture the tens of thousands of troops.
