There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 183 Secret Letter
The barbarians were defeated and did not give up.

On the fourth night, they led a small group of elite soldiers to attack the grain and grass of the Daxia military camp and the place where the two princes were imprisoned.

That night there was great chaos in the camp, the sound of soldiers fighting, horses neighing, and the sound of swords and swords intertwined, and the whole place was in chaos.

Fortunately, things were quickly suppressed, and the food and prisoners were kept.

As dawn approached, the barracks became quiet again, as quiet as if nothing had happened.

"Useless things are all useless things!"

A furious and suppressed sound came from somewhere in the tent.

"I've told them the location. They can't burn food and rescue the prisoners. They are really stupid and stupid, a group of people with strong limbs and simple minds!" Xia Houyan was so angry that his nose was smoking.

"My lord, I can't blame those savages entirely. You know, there is a crown prince in charge of the tent at the rear, and he guards it so tightly that not even a fly can fly in..."

Xia Houyan slammed his fist on the pillar of the tent, gnashing his teeth.

"Water does not leak, then find a way to tear a hole to let it leak. The food and grass have not been burned and the captives have not left. What should I take to sue the emperor? Huh?!"

Staff: "..."

"Hurry up and make arrangements!" Xia Houyan kicked several staff members to the ground.

"Your Highness, this..." Several staff members fell to the ground and their eyes turned black.

"You are in a dilemma. We don't have any soldiers in our hands. There is really nothing we can do!"

"Yes, the elite soldiers in our hands have been taken away by His Highness the Crown Prince. We are powerless, and there is really nothing we can do. Please punish us, Your Highness!"

Only then did Xia Houyan wake up, and he kicked again ferociously.

"Get out of here! Get out!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The staff members rolled away in a hurry, only Xia Houyan, who was thundering and furious, was left.

He turned around tremblingly and sat down on the chair again, grabbed the teacup and crushed it violently, the bright red blood flowed down between his fingers, staining his clothes drop by drop.

"Xia Houjue, you have a good plan and a good chess game!"

"First lure me to surrender my military power..."

He had already lost his mind, and completely forgot that the military power was obviously handed over by himself to show off his virtuousness.

This move was really unexpected by Xia Houjue.

In this regard, Xia Houjue said: I don't know that someone is so stupid, there is no way, you are so stupid, how can I not accept it?

……

After dawn, in Xia Houjue's camp, Tang Wanning was thinking about something with her chin resting on her hands.

"You said... how did the other party know the location of our granary and the cell where the prisoners were held?"

"Could it be that they have already secretly investigated it? It is unlikely that the military camp is important?"

"It's really impossible. No one can enter the lonely camp." Xia Houjue held a book of war in his hand, without raising his head, and spoke indifferently.

"Why is that? Why are you not in a hurry at all?" She was so anxious that she was sweating profusely.

When something like this happened in the barracks, you have to find out the reason. If there is an internal response, it will be really troublesome, and it is really a big taboo for military strategists.

"Now is not the time to talk about this, the plan for now is to win this battle first!" Xia Houjue said flatly again.

"Okay, Wan Wan, lie back on the bed and have a good rest, you haven't closed your eyes for a few days, and you didn't sleep well last night!"

While speaking, his slender arms crossed the coffee table, and his big and generous palms stroked her head several times, loving and pampering her like a small pet.

"Good, be obedient!"

"Huh!" Tang Wanning symbolically rubbed the goosebumps on her body, opened his hand, twisted and lay back on the bed.

"Sleep as soon as you sleep, anyway, you will know sooner or later, you must not hide it from me!"

"That's about the same!" Xia Houjue smiled, "I won't hide it from you!"

"Bah!" Someone in the bed buried his head in the quilt, his face flushed.

……

After both the plan of burning food and the rescue plan of going deep into the enemy's camp failed, the barbarian leader Tulu was a little distraught, and even chopped off dozens of defeated generals who had thrown away their helmets and armor, in order to relieve the anger in his heart.

"Da Xia Chao, let's wait and see, I won't admit defeat, and I won't make it easier for you!"

The stout Tulu is nine feet tall, with a hulking back and a hulking waist. He is dressed in wolf fur and wolf teeth. The scars on his face make him even more ferocious. His voice is deafening and loud.

"Khan, what should we do now?"

"Yeah, Khan, the two princes are still in the hands of each other, and we have the upper hand!"

Several subordinates were extremely anxious.

"It really doesn't work, we have to retreat, the cold winter is coming, we can't afford it, sweat!"

"Yes, I am also in favor of retreating. The gangsters of the Great Xia Dynasty are very cunning. They have built a high defense and will never give us a chance to attack again!"

"They have a saying in the Great Xia Dynasty called "striking the grass to scare the snake, we call it "striking the grass to scare the snake now, if we continue to consume it, we will only kill ourselves!"

"That doesn't work either!" Tulu took off the black wolf skin on his body, revealing his big and round muscles.

"I have never suffered such a humiliation in my life. This battle must be fought. Haven't you been studying the other party's military tactics? Don't we still have internal support?"

"I have raised you for so long, I didn't want you to be deserters, no matter how stupid you are, I will cut you off!"

"Yes yes yes..." Several subordinates wanted to cry but had no tears.

What is the saying?To advance is to die, to retreat is to die, to be in a dilemma is to die!
……

During the stalemate, the barbarian tribe suddenly received a secret letter.

The signature on the letter was Xia Houyan, King of the Great Xia Dynasty, and the content of the letter was only a few short sentences: Three days later, the Great Xia Dynasty will send troops to directly attack the barbarian barracks. Along the way, they will pass through a hilly Gobi.

The subordinates were very pleasantly surprised.

"We haven't heard the news for a long time, we thought the other party gave up the cooperation!"

"I didn't expect that His Royal Highness Chen Wang is still very trustworthy!"

They didn't doubt the authenticity of the letter at all, so they directly regarded it as genuine and dedicated it to their leader.

In fact, this is also due to the fact that they have investigated Xia Houyan's motives before.

Knowing that he was at odds with the warring prince and that the two had already fought to the point of life and death, they still had nothing to worry about.

What the other party wants is also very simple, which is to bring down the prince.

In this regard, everyone's interests are consistent, and cooperation can naturally be reached.

They don't believe in any enemy or friend, let alone faith, the only thing they can believe in is profit.

"Okay!" Tulu happily patted the table, and the table wobbled and fell apart.

"It's true that even the gods are helping me, hurry up and prepare to attack, I can't wait to capture that dog prince alive, when the time comes..."

Tulu thought of the beauties he had seen in Northwest City, it really made people salivate.

He heard that there are more beautiful beauties and more fertile land further south, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and they don't even need to face the cold wind to herd cattle and sheep.

He vowed to capture all of these in his life, he wanted to conquer them all!
