After getting Long Bing'er's approval, Xin Honggao began to prepare.
Since we don’t know which courtyard the rebels’ tunnels will dig into, we might as well bring all the courtyards into shooting range. Then it will be like whack-a-mole. Wherever they appear, we will hit them with thunderbolts.
However, judging from the current progress, it should take another two days if they want to dig the tunnel.
Therefore, a major counterattack cannot be launched until at least two days.
Speaking of the counterattack, the most excited person is not Long Bing'er or Xin Honggao, but Xiao Ye.
Why did he take all the trouble to come here from Chu?
Of course it’s for the battlefield!
The defensive battle was too boring, and it was not in line with their Chu country's character. How could it be as interesting as taking the initiative to attack?
Compared with boring city defense battles, taking the initiative to attack is more in line with Xiao Ye's wishes.
And now it is obvious that the time to attack is almost here.
When Xu Qing came to Long Bing'er to check the room, Long Bing'er was taking a nap in the room. She seemed to have done very little in the past few days. In fact, after everyone put forward the plan, she was responsible for the deployment of materials and personnel, and
She also had to review documents, not only to take care of the people's livelihood in Shuzhou, but also to ensure the supply of materials and personnel for the army, especially the night battles in the past few days. Long Bing'er had not slept well for several days.
Sometimes Long Binger would even lead people to patrol the city to ensure that apart from the two tunnels controlled by the rebels, the enemy had not dug any other tunnels.
It can really be said that everything is meticulous.
Xu Qing walked up to Long Bing'er, took off her robe and put it on Long Bing'er and said, "If you feel sleepy, go and sleep for a while. I will do the rest."
Long Bing'er, who was taking a nap, was awakened by Xu Qing's words. He immediately shook his head and said, "No, I am the commander-in-chief of the rebel army. How can I say I am tired."
After saying that, Long Bing'er picked up the ink pen again. Xu Qing took the ink pen from Long Bing'er's hand and said, "Just sleep peacefully. Maybe after you wake up, the enemy troops outside will be beaten by us."
He's lying down."
Long Binger still stubbornly shook her head.
Xu Qing: "You don't listen to your husband, do you?"
Long Bing'er wore Xu Qing's robe, raised her chin and said, "You are your husband at home, but now I am your superior officer in the government office."
Xu Qing said: "So it's normal for the lower official to help the upper official handle things. Sometimes the upper official has to learn to be lazy to a certain extent."
Long Bing'er did not agree with Xu Qing's words, and forced herself to cheer up and said, "Then I will deal with it with you, and I will rest after all these things are dealt with."
Seeing Long Bing'er's stubbornness, Xu Qing finally sighed and let him go. Then Xu Qing moved another chair and placed it next to Long Bing'er, and started reviewing today's documents with Long Bing'er.
Long Bing'er's ability to review documents has also improved through the training of these days. Memorials that used to take a long time to think about can now be done easily.
Xu Qing was really impressed by Long Bing'er like this.
But this is understandable, after all, while Xu Qing was chasing fish and rabbit, Long Bing'er was chasing memorials.
After Xu Qing joined in, the memorials on Long Bing'er's desk disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye. Finally, after Long Bing'er's ink pen wrote the last word, Long Bing'er couldn't help feeling sleepy anymore and tilted her head.
He fell asleep leaning on Xu Qing's shoulder.
When Huo Wenshi came to collect the memorial, his eyes widened when he saw this scene. The daughter of General Long, the commander of the rebel army, actually fell asleep leaning on the military advisor's shoulder?
Xu Qing said softly: "Keep your voice down and move these prepared memorials away."
When Huo Wenshi heard Xu Qing's words, he did not dare to make too much noise. He quickly picked up the memorial and left lightly.
In this way, Xu Qing let Long Bing'er sleep on his shoulder. Long Bing'er also slept peacefully. It wasn't until it was time to leave the office that Long Bing'er rubbed her eyes with sleepiness. At this time, the sky outside had dimmed.
Already.
Long Bing'er looked at the sky outside and said in confusion, "Did I sleep for so long?"
Xu Qing stood up and said, "It's time for us to go home and eat. After eating, we can sleep as long as we want."
Long Bing'er shook his head and said: "The imperial army will definitely continue to attack the city at night to cover the tunnel excavation. I'm afraid we won't be able to sleep well tonight."
Xu Qing said: "Why don't you come over and sleep with us? Your sister Su's room has better sound insulation."
Long Bing'er suddenly blushed: "I don't want it!"
Since the sound insulation effect in Su Qian's room is better, Xiao Ruxue has moved to Su Qian's room to sleep these days. Of course, the roar can still be heard, but it will be much quieter than in other rooms.
In the past few days, Su Qian was also thinking about letting Long Bing'er move in and sleep with her. Anyway, the bed in her room was very big, and two more people could sleep there.
But Long Bing'er declined several times, saying it was good to sleep alone.
In fact, it was because Xu Qing was also there and she couldn't think of sleeping with four people together.
Xu Qing said: "Look, the idea is evil, isn't it? We are just resting, very innocent! If you don't believe me, ask Xue'er, are we simply resting?"
Long Bing'er hummed; "Xue'er wishes she could hang on to you every day and listen to you in everything, I don't believe it!"
If there were two or three women sleeping in a big bed, would Xu Qing do nothing and just rest?
I don’t even believe it!
Doesn't Long Bing'er understand Xu Qing yet? If she hadn't been on guard, Xu Qing would have been unable to hide his bad thoughts.
She would not be tricked by Xu Qing into sleeping in Sister Su’s room!
Xu Qing would definitely cry out if he heard Long Bing'er's words, because he really didn't do anything these nights!
Last time Su Qian and Xiao Ruxue got drunk together and slept with each other once.
Su Qian is much shyer than Xiao Ruxue. Without the courage to drink, she would not let Xu Qing touch her when there is another person in the room.
Xu Qing himself is obviously innocent.
While Long Bing'er was sleeping on Xu Qing's shoulder, Xin Honggao had already transferred several spare catapults. All the houses previously measured had been included in the catapult's range by Xin Honggao. As long as they rushed
The Thunderbolt that came out of the catapult would show no mercy.
the night two days later
The Zhao State is still fiercely attacking the city, and now their forces have been almost wiped out by the thunderbolts and city defense crossbows. Even if Xiao Ye leads his men out of the city, there is still a 60% chance of wiping out the Zhao State army.
But Xu Qing's suggestion is to wait and consume them for a while longer.
At this moment, there is a dark house overgrown with weeds.
Two Zhao soldiers holding pickaxes and shovels crawled out of the hole they had dug for several days.
