rson has many stories, but whether they are related to Xi'er is unknown. Du Gu Cheng suddenly felt uneasy in his heart. What secrets were hidden behind Xi'er and the Yao Clan There were so many things...Feng Ling Xi helped Dugu City back to the room, "You sit here for a while, I'll re-dress your wounds, and then we can spend some time together."

Dugu City watched her busy figure and, looking at Xiaoli beside her, asked, "Did the Princess have a good rest last night"

"Your Majesty, the Queen did not sleep all night. Because of Your Majesty's affairs, the Queen was busy all night. Last night, she even caught a group of people plotting against Your Majesty in the valley and had them imprisoned."

Seeing that the prince remained silent, Xiao Li whispered, "Your Highness, can you please persuade the princess to rest more I've told her, but she doesn't take it to heart. I'm worried that the princess's body won't be able to hold up."

"I understand. You may leave now."

Xiao Li responded and stepped back. Feng Ling Xi took the medicine box and walked over to see Du Gu Cheng's unbuttoned clothes. She went closer to treat his wounds, frowning at the redness and swelling. "It's a little inflamed, I need to apply anti-inflammatory medication," she said, taking out the self-developed anti-inflammatory pills from the box and giving them to Du Gu Cheng. "Take it."

Dugu Cheng was very obedient, swallowing the pill and watching her treat his wounds. Her serious expression, that made him ache with tenderness.

"Looking at me"

Feng Lingxi felt uneasy under his gaze. After bandaging his wound, she met his eyes, leaving her speechless.

Du Gu Cheng grasped her hand, softly saying, "I didn't sleep all night. This king will go himself later, you should rest well."

"Can't sleep."

Feng Lingxi rejected his arrangement, "Right now your injuries haven't healed, and Ye Xi is also injured. The enemy army is attacking, we shouldn't go to battle. Discuss with the other generals and see if there are any good strategies. We should only defend and not attack."

"This king has a plan, Xi'er needn't worry."

What can we do

Feng Lingxi asked hastily, her gaze fixed on the smile in his eyes, urging him, "Come on, tell me. If I think it's reasonable, then I'll follow you. But if you want to hide this from me and go into battle, I won't agree."

The smile in Dugu Cheng's eyes deepened, he lightly tapped her nose, and smiled indulgently, "This king has been fighting on the battlefield for so many years, if he can't even handle this, how can he defeat the armies of all countries and protect the Great Yuan Dynasty."

Wind Ling Xi looked at the confidence in his eyes and reminded him, "Dugu Cheng, I know you can fight, but don't forget, things are different now. The enemy country must have already known about your father's passing. With your current status, they will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to attack you, besiege the cities. For them, your current situation is the best time to attack the Great Yuan Dynasty. They wouldn't be stupid enough to miss such a good opportunity."

獨孤城 nodded, "You said what this king knows, but this king won't let them succeed. For Xi'er, this king will not lose."

Feng Lingxi shook her head, packing up her medicine box. "Thinking about it is one thing, but doing it is another. Our supplies are limited. Right now, we only have one country attacking us. Perhaps you can hold out, but what if several small countries attack together You wouldn't stand a chance against them."

She's not unaware, nor is she ignorant.

An army of half a million men, once short on water and food, would find it difficult to survive even without being attacked.

Moreover, they are now caught between a rock and a hard place.

"Xier sees things so clearly."

With a sigh, Dugu Cheng said, "Even Lian Xi'er can see through it, but unfortunately, Dugu Xiu and the Empress Dowager cannot. In their eyes, there is only power and status. For the sake of seizing power, they are willing to pay any price. This king only wants to protect the Jiangshan that his father built with his own hands."

Feng Ling Xi patted his shoulder, "I know, I'll be with you."

Du Gu Cheng responded, taking his military talisman. "Let's go, the generals who follow this king are waiting for me. This king cannot disappoint them."

Seeing the firmness in his eyes, Feng Lingxi followed him out. They arrived at the front hall and saw the generals waiting there. Following Dugu City, she entered inside.

Looking at Feng Lingxi's appearance, the soldiers' attitude towards her improved a lot. The events of last night spread throughout the camp, causing those who cared about women appearing in the camp to have a change of heart about Feng Lingxi.

After taking his seat, Dugu City looked at them and said, "Generals, have you determined which country's army is coming"

"Your Majesty, it's the 300,000 army of Gallo. It seems that Gallo has learned about Your Majesty's situation this time and wants to take Liu Xixian in one fell swoop."

"The Kingdom of Gallo."

Dugu Cheng raised an eyebrow, "Looks like the Gallo nation has been observing for so long, they're finally going to make a move."

"A small nation that takes advantage of others' misfortune, let the last general lead troops to kill them without leaving a single piece of armor."

General Li strode forward, his face contorted with rage. He had been pursuing Dugu City relentlessly. Now, he felt the most humiliated he ever had. Being a hot-tempered man, he couldn't stand the invasion of this small country.

"General Li, do not act impulsively. The Kingdom of Garlos dares to send troops because they have already figured out the current state of our kingdom. In our current situation, we can only win through strategy, not by force. We must also guard against other small countries taking advantage of the situation."

General Li gritted his teeth, "What are we to do then Shall we just let this little nation of Garlo run amok above our heads"

This emperor oppresses the princes, and now even these small countries dare to invade. A tiger fallen into a peaceful meadow is bullied by dogs. When has the prince ever been so humiliated

"We have a strategic advantage in terms of terrain. The food we brought back will sustain us for several months. We must ensure that while we capture the small nation, we also stock up on the next batch of supplies to guarantee a continuous food supply. Only then can we solidify our strength and stabilize the army's morale."

Du Guling's analysis left the soldiers silent. It was easy to say, but difficult to do.

This small country came to attack, while the emperor's side was still thinking of dealing with the prince. Betrayed from behind, how could it be as easy as they said

“The strategy for defending the city, I have already devised. Now we have one more thing that needs careful planning.”

Dugu City looked at the generals, "The Gallo Kingdom came to attack the city, they must have prepared a lot of food and supplies. This king wants this batch of grain for us. Do any of you have any good ideas on how to get the grain"

"This..."

Three hundred thousand soldiers, forcing their way in is definitely out of the question. But to strategically outwit them and seize their grain supply from under their very noses is no easy feat either. One slip up could cost lives.

"My lord, can't we burn this grain"

If we burn their grain stores, at worst, we bring a squad and risk it all to burn their grain. Let's go for an all-out war of attrition.

"No, if this food is burnt, it would be a waste."

Three hundred thousand soldiers' rations cannot simply be burned, especially since the court will not provide them with food now. The only way to maximize profit is to seize the grain for themselves.

"I have a way."

Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, and all eyes turned to her. The expectant looks made Feng Lingxi a little embarrassed.

"Xier, tell me what you think."

"Your Highness, please speak."

"Now the court ignores us, and small nations dare to attack us. If we spread the word that we are at odds with the Yuan Dynasty, who do you think those small nations will attack first"nts indirectly acknowledge that it was City Master who did it This would be harming him, surely Miss Luo knows this"Feng Lingxi's words made Luo Juzhou's eyes even colder. It seemed that Feng Lingxi h...
