Chapter 3030 The Heart of a Villain
Zhao Shu planned to leave here.
He was very concerned about the situation over there in Canglan Town.
It's impossible for the Northern Qi army to make no moves after these days.
After discussing with Yun Dai, Zhao Shu decided to go back first to stabilize the situation in the army, and then come back to pick up her and the infant.
At night, he left quietly.
Who would have thought that as soon as he returned to the army and saw Muchen and his subordinates, a scout came running towards him with a pale face and said, "General, the enemy is attacking!"
Everyone stood up together.
Muchen said: "Did the King of Northern Qi already notice that the prince left?"
Zhao Shu shook his head: "Not so fast. It should be a planned action. How is Luo Qijun doing during this period?"
"Back to the general, Luo Qijun rarely shows up. It is his deputy general Mingcheng who leads the troops."
All the soldiers looked at him, waiting for his order.
Before, King Qin had been away, and they were in panic. Now that King Qin was back, they had a backbone, and they didn't care about enemy attacks at all.
Zhao Shu said: "They attacked at night, so they must have been fully prepared. Muchen, you lead the people to attack from the front, Fan Wu, you lead the people from the left, Chen Li, you lead the people from the right, Guo Yuanxing, you Cut off and outflank them. Remember to protect the city gate and don't let the other side enter the city and disturb the people."
"The last general takes command!"
All the officers and men took the order and got ready to set off.
They are all veterans who have followed King Qin for many years. Although they have different styles of marching and fighting, they can all cooperate with each other at critical moments.
Zhao Shu sat down and breathed out gently.
Military advisor Lang Yu ordered people to bring food and said, "The prince has suffered a lot during this time, and his income has been reduced a lot."
"The king is fine."
"Did the Queen Mother rescue the prince?"
"That's right."
"The Queen Mother...is still in the Northern Qi Palace?"
Zhao Shu glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, the King of Northern Qi will not do anything to the Queen Mother."
"But if the King of Northern Qi threatens the Queen Mother's life..."
"Won't."
"The King of Northern Qi even dared to plot and imprison the prince..."
"Can the relationship between me and the King of Northern Qi be compared to the relationship between the Queen Mother and the King of Northern Qi? At least in my opinion, the King of Northern Qi will never do anything to harm the Queen Mother. Let alone threaten her life."
Lang Yu said: "It's just the heart of a villain."
"I just said that the King of Northern Qi would not do anything to the Queen Mother. It does not mean that he does not have a villain's heart."
"That's right. If he were upright, he wouldn't plot against the prince."
"Let's go out and have a look."
Zhao Shu stood up and walked outside the military tent.
Fire was shining in the distance, and the sound of shouts, galloping horses, and fighting shook the sky.
Lang Yu slowly shook his fan and said: "My subordinates don't understand why the King of Northern Qi suddenly launched a surprise attack tonight when he has been holding back his troops these days. It seems a little hasty."
Zhao Shu said: "Because he didn't have time to prepare more fully."
"My subordinates don't understand."
"The Queen Mother made an agreement with him. He probably wanted to take action before I came back. Maybe even he didn't expect that this king would recover so quickly."
"The prince's safe return is a blessing to the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"Don't flatter me yet, bring me the map, and we'll discuss it later."
"good."
The two returned to the military tent and discussed in low voices around the map.
Soon a scout came to report that there were about 50,000 enemy troops ahead and they were attacking in three directions.
Another group of shooters made a sneak attack on the grain and grass depot. Fortunately, General Chen Li found and blocked it in time, so no major losses were caused.
