The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 478 A tacit gamble

The people below looked at each other, wondering if General Dou had gone crazy with hunger, and he actually uttered wild words about attacking Princess Changling on the opposite side.

Dou Wenshao smiled and then said: "Everyone, our turning point has come!"

"I think not long after, the army is coming, and this extremely rich Chang'an will be our world by then!"

The deputy general was also a little confused. What news made Dou Wenshao, who was originally anxious, suddenly become so confident.

Dou Wenzhao saw that the soldiers were confused, so he calmed down and said: "Let me tell you the bad news first. Our food route has been robbed. I am afraid we will have to support it for ten days, while we wait for the supplies from the army behind us!"

When the subordinates heard this, they all changed their colors. What a joke, the food road was robbed, and it took tens of thousands of people to support it for more than ten days. Even if the bark of the trees in this area was eaten away, it wouldn't be enough!
Dou Wenshao waved his hand and said: "Don't panic, the next good news is our turning point!"

"A few days ago, King Changling intended to annihilate the Jie Clan Royal Court in one fell swoop. He did not want to be stabbed in the back by King Hejian. He was seriously injured and now he does not know whether he is alive or dead!"

"King Hejian besieged King Changling. Even if he is lucky to be alive, he won't be able to come back to rescue Chang'an immediately. Isn't this our opportunity?"

"As long as I can break into Chang'an, I don't want anything!"

Everyone under his command was shocked by the news. They had to know that King Changling, who had never seen a defeat, could be seriously injured so easily.

Seeing that some of his subordinates did not believe it, Dou Wenshao snorted coldly: "So what can the so-called God of War do? He is also made of flesh and blood, and he is not invulnerable!"

The subordinates nodded one after another, that was the truth.

Jie people are brave and good at fighting, and they are not easy to deal with. Now here comes the King of Hejian to stab him in the back. Even if the King of Changling does not die, he will lose his skin.

In this case, this is not their opportunity.

Chen Liujun's main tent was filled with joy.

Jingli on the other side had already received the news without Dou Wenshao's messenger.

The person who came to deliver the letter was Mr. Chen. He climbed up the tower with his belly in his hands and sweating profusely.

Lord Chen was panting and said to Jing Li: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, I want you to mobilize the main forces in the city and send out as many troops as possible to rescue the prince!"

Bai Changhe looked confused: "When the news comes out that the prince is seriously injured, Chen Liu's army will definitely make some moves. Even the Bailian army in the grassland and Longxi will most likely counterattack!"

"At this time, the troops in Guankou City are self-defense. They are all struggling. How can we divide the troops for rescue!"

As the pass coach, facing the identity of King Changling as his master and his nephew and son-in-law, he naturally wanted to save him.

But Bai Changhe, who has experienced hundreds of battles, must first consider the overall situation, so that he can consider personal emotions.

He looked at Jingli worriedly. This young couple separated just after they got married. Their relationship had also gone through the test of life and death. At this time, he didn't know what choice the child would make.

Mr. Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "But the adults in the city want to save the prince first. As long as the prince is here, we can start all over again."

"If there is no prince, even if you are guarding this pass, you are also making wedding clothes for others!"

Bai Changhe naturally understood the thoughts of the courtiers in the city. They were all betting on the possibility of King Changling going further in the future.

Although King Changling has never said this, these old foxes have all determined that Tantai Lin is the best candidate and the one with the most strength to win the world.

Naturally, they have to embrace this thigh from the beginning and seek to achieve success in the future.

If Tantai Lin is gone, all their gambling funds will be in vain. If they change their master at this time, everything will have to start from scratch and they will have to be ostracized. This is why they are more worried about the life and death of King Changling than anyone else.

When Bai Changhe thought of this, Mr. Chen, the old fox in the officialdom, would naturally not think of it.Both of them looked at Jingli, waiting for her decision.

"You guys go down first and let me be alone for a while!" Jing Li said with a calm expression on her face.

Mr. Chen's heart palpitated. This princess was not even close to ten, and when she suddenly heard such bad news, she didn't show any emotion at all.

He must have an inexplicable feeling in his heart that something really happened to King Changling, and this princess might be able to win a share of the world as a woman in this competition.

After Bai Changhe and the others retreated, Jing Li picked up the wine in his hand and drank it in one gulp.

The hot wine burned her throat, and she couldn't help coughing for a while. She coughed so hard that her face was filled with tears before she stopped.

After this burst of burning, her mind became clearer than ever before, and she began to slowly review the truth and falsehood of this matter.

King Hejian has always regarded Tantai Lin as a close friend.

Tantai Yulie was cruel and cruel, with almost no sense of right and wrong. He wanted to kill all his uncles, nephews, and brothers. He had no so-called national justice at all.

If a person like him conspires with the Capricorn people, it is very possible.

But if it were said that Tantai Lin was surrounded and even seriously injured.

Jing Li was a little skeptical about this. He was wearing a vest that could resist zombies. Normal swords couldn't hurt him. There were also secret weapons prepared for him.

Under such circumstances, if he could still be blocked and seriously injured, wouldn't his so-called God of War's reputation be false?

But if he was not injured, knowing that the pass was now surrounded and enemy troops were watching from all sides, how confident was he that he could release such news?

If this news was released by him, what did he want to do?
Jing Li felt that she and Tantai Lin had fallen into a tacit gamble between husband and wife, and this gamble would inevitably affect the world.

If the bet is successful, it can buy Chang'an City nearly ten years of development, or even more.

But if she loses the bet, she will be destined to walk alone in this future!
Jingli returned to Chang'an City the next day, gathered officials of all sizes in Chang'an, and announced his decision.

"Currently, everything is focused on defense. We don't know whether the news is true or not. Chen Liu's army will come out in full force, but it is inevitable to attack Chang'an!"

"Therefore, all the troops in Chang'an now must be used to strengthen the deployment. Not only cannot they be divided into troops, but the civilians must be recruited to strengthen fortifications and defenses!"

All the ministers were in an uproar when they heard this.

The leader at the moment was Zhong Wennuo: "My Lady, as a woman, you control the entire army of Chang'an, which is against the rules."

"Because of the prince's repeated instructions, we suppressed our dissatisfaction and were willing to take a step back for the prince to preserve the stability of Chang'an."

"But now that the prince's life and death are unknown, the queen will not go to rescue him, but will stick to Chang'an. Such a big heart is simply shocking!"

Jing Li looked around and saw that not only Zhong Wennuo was like this, but the others, including Ma Shiyong, who was very protective of her, also disagreed.

In their view, women are subordinate to men, and they are given the honor they deserve. But now at the time of life and death, they are actually unwilling to send troops to rescue them.

Sure enough, this woman was unreliable, and it was a pity that King Changling valued her so much.

Zhong Wenuo said sternly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for offending me. If your Majesty refuses to send troops to rescue me, don't blame me for being rude!"
