Chapter 673: Really good at choosing the right time

With their flocks and herds they could not move very fast.

Five days later, Yun Zhengcai led his troops back to Xing'an Fort.

On the way, some sheep failed to hold up, which happened to be their food rations.

Seeing them returning home with a full load, Xing'an Fort was also boiling.

Yun Zheng was also generous. With a wave of his hand, he had a thousand sheep slaughtered to reward everyone.

Both the soldiers and those who built the city had a share.

Everyone was even more happy to hear the news, and many even knelt down and shouted "Long live".

After arranging the sheep slaughtering, Yunzheng climbed onto the wall of Xing'anbao City to check the expansion progress of the surrounding wall.

After they had been away for so many days, the expansion project of Xing'an Fort was on track.

The foundations of the expanded city wall have been laid.

Next, it's just a matter of tamping the earth and laying rocks on top.

Just when Yunzheng was getting excited, a cold wind roared in, making Yunzheng shiver.

Winter is really here!

Yunzheng thought for a moment and then ordered the guards: "Go and call Li Wenzhou!"

Soon, Li Wenzhou trotted up to Yun Zheng and saluted respectfully.

Yunzheng called Li Wenzhou to the edge of the city wall, pointed at the people who were working hard to expand the city wall, and asked, "Where do these people live?"

"This……"

Li Wenzhou looked at Yunzheng cautiously and answered hesitantly: "They don't have a suitable place to live now. I want to wait until they build the city wall half a foot higher and let them build some sheds next to the city wall..." "

Build a shed?

Listening to Li Wenzhou's words, Yunzheng couldn't help but sigh secretly.

It's true that our own people are more ruthless than the enemy!

It’s already winter!

It will get colder in time.

Just build some broken shacks, and half of the people will die from the cold in one winter!

Yun Zheng glanced at Li Wenzhou lightly and ordered: "Let people stop building the city wall first, and build these people's residences first. It doesn't need to be too good, but at least it can't be ventilated everywhere!"

They will also need barracks for their later garrison.

Now it is equivalent to building the barracks in advance.

However, there must be hundreds of people crammed into one such barracks.

Now he can only prevent these people from freezing to death and starving to death. As for comfort, he is not considering it for the time being.

"Yes!"

Li Wenzhou quickly accepted the order.

"Okay, go and do your work!"

Yun Zheng waved Li Wenzhou to retreat, and called Tong Gang, "Send someone to send a message to Dugu Ce, asking him to bring over some supplies such as bedding! If the supplies are not enough, you can kill the rich and help the poor!"

"Yes!"

Tong Gang took the order.

After Tong Gang left, Miaoyin couldn't help but imitate Yun Zheng's tone and joke: "You are quite a good person!"

Yun Zheng put his arms around Miao Yin's waist, "How is it possible to let the horse run and not let it eat grass?"

Miaoyin smiled, leaned into Yunzheng's arms again and asked, "When will we go back?"

"Not yet."

Yun Zheng shook his head and said: "We can't go back until the Eighteen Ghost Riders confirm that the Moxi tribes have withdrawn their troops!"

If the Moxi tribes do not withdraw their troops, they will still have to fight even if winter comes.

Listening to Yunzheng's words, Miaoyin couldn't help but joke: "You are not the emperor, but you worry about the emperor's heart all day long."

"So, Rong Guogong is right, it's not that easy to be the emperor!" Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled bitterly.

what else can we do?

He didn't want to worry about it.

But he can’t help but worry!

If the Moxi tribes were allowed to break through Daqian's defenses, the people of Daqian would still die.

Well, if the Moxi tribes withdrew their troops, it would be time for me to go to my father to claim credit.

He doesn't really care now whether he is rewarded or not.

You have to find a way to get your father to send you some talents to manage the place!

I have to think carefully about this matter later.

Well, I still have to write a battle report to my father.

No matter what, we must let this old guy know that he has opened up a channel to attack the various tribes in Moxi. At least, this old guy will have some peace of mind, so as not to worry about this and that all day long.

……

Daqian, the imperial city.

"Good news! Good news from Shuobei..."

Several cavalrymen with eye-catching flags on their backs shouted and rushed into the gate of the imperial city.

"Look, our Sixth Highness has won another battle!"

"I heard that Guifang, Dayue and Qiuchi jointly attacked Shuobei this time. The battle was over so quickly?"

"Don't even look at who His Highness the Sixth is!"

"If the Holy Emperor sends the Sixth Prince to attack the tribes in Mosi, he will probably beat them to the point where they cry for father and mother..."

The soldiers on the city wall were talking a lot.

Although Shuobei's victory had nothing to do with them, they were still happy from the bottom of their hearts.

At the same time, Emperor Wen summoned several important officials in the court to discuss matters in his palace.

Xue Che and the others were discussing the war in Jiaolu and Northwest, but Emperor Wen was worried about Shuobei.

On the Shuobei side, even though Yunzheng was in charge, Emperor Wen was still a little worried.

It is said that the three countries combined a total of 200,000 to 300,000 troops, but Yunzheng only brought a hundred thousand people to fight.

I don’t know if this traitor was dazzled by the victory, or if he was confident.

I hope this traitor will not be defeated!

Now, the war in the southwest and northwest is very stalemate.

He also expected this traitor to send troops from Qiuchi to intimidate the tribes in Moxi!

"Father, father..."

Just when Emperor Wen was worried, Yun Li's voice sounded in his ears again.

Emperor Wen came to his senses and looked up at Yun Li, "What's the matter?"

Yun Li respectfully repeated the previous question: "Should we appease those noble families and clans?"

When Emperor Wen heard this, he immediately frowned and looked at Yun Li, "Why, is someone putting pressure on you, the prince?"

"No no."

Yun Li shook his head repeatedly, "My son just thinks that we have already beaten the clans and clans. Now that the troops of the Moxi tribes are pressing down on the border, we still have to deal with the Moxi tribes."

Someone indeed put pressure on Yun Li.

Moreover, Yunli himself also felt tremendous pressure.

He no longer wants to suppress the family and clan.

"Your Majesty, what the prince said makes sense."

Xu Shifu also echoed, "Now we still have to deal with the tribes in Moxi! The war ahead is stalemate at this time. If the clans and clans cause any trouble again, we will lose more than we gain!"

Southwest had lost two games in a row before, largely because of the sluggishness of family members and clans.

If it weren't for the prestige of Xiao Wanchou, the former Minister of the Ministry of War, Southwest would not have won a small victory, but would have been able to avoid a massive defeat.

"Yes! Your Majesty." Xue Che also persuaded, "Right now, dealing with foreign enemies is the most important thing!"

As the three of them opened their mouths, the others also followed suit.

At this moment, Emperor Wen felt unprecedented pressure.

It is easy to appease clans and clans.

But once he appeases these people, it means that he has compromised with the clan and clan.

In this way, I'm afraid it will only encourage these people's arrogance.

Damn the Moxi tribes!

They really know how to choose their time!

If there were no troops from various tribes in Moxi to suppress the territory, would the clans and clans dare to exert such pressure?

Thinking of the troops from the Moxi tribes pressing down on the territory, Emperor Wen began to waver in his heart.

If we continue to suppress the clans and clans at this time, there might really be trouble!

Just when Emperor Wen was suffering from a headache, Mu Shun suddenly hurried in and shouted with excitement: "Your Majesty, good news for Shuobei..."
