Xie Li has been quite leisurely these days, almost the same as he had guessed. The Qin army showed no sign of siege recently, and the last failure hit them a bit big.

Morale is really a mysterious thing on this battlefield.

It is invisible and intangible and cannot provide any material assistance to both parties.

But in many cases, it can control a seemingly unsuspecting battle.

Look at the countless battles on the ancient battlefield, how many times have you won the more with fewer and weaker with strong ones. In these victories, morale has been involved without exception.

Even if the role of clever strategy is irreplaceable, if the soldiers lose their morale and the army is approaching, they will directly throw away their armor and flee one after another, even if the rebirth of Liu Hou and Jin Xuan will be reborn, they will have no choice but to do anything.

Of course, under normal circumstances, the strong side is more likely to accumulate morale, but this morale is based on the advantage of numerical power. The ancients said: If one fights, then declines, and then exhausts. When the battle situation is in a stalemate and the advantage of numerical power is not well reflected, the speed at which this morale disappears is also shocking.

This is obviously the case with the current Qin army.

"If there is no worries about food and grass in Xiangyang City now, the result of this offensive and defensive battle in Xiangyang is really hard to say." Xie Li looked at the Qin army camp outside the western city wall and murmured to himself softly.

"I hope that there will be better news."

Xie Li slowly walked down the city wall.

The statistics after the last war have been completed. If there is no war, I am just an idle person.

In the past few days, his figures have been scattered on the four walls of Xiangyang.

The river water on one side and the moat on three sides is a natural barrier, but it is difficult to go out without realizing it.

Before he knew it, he had already returned home. Grandma Zhao and his mother were talking in the room. Now that Xie Li comes back every day, Grandma Zhao naturally can't take Su Huixue with him when Grandma Zhao visits her.

So Xie Li hasn't seen her these days, but now he goes to the city wall to survey the terrain every day, so he doesn't care too much about it.

Reborn in such a tragic place and being surrounded by 100,000 enemy troops, accidents may happen at any time. Although the Qin army, under the constraints of Fu Jian and Wang Meng, was not as cruel and barbaric as the Shihu Army and Yan Army, after breaking the city, Xiangyang really gave them too much pressure and torture. No one can guarantee that they would not have any act of venting their emotions after breaking the city.

How to survive and how to survive better are the main things he needs to consider now.

After the mother and son sent Grandma Zhao away, they packed up the things at home, and then said to Xie Li: "I heard from the people on the street that the Qin army would not be able to attack the city this time, and the city should be safe for a long time. You are in the army now, and you are very leisurely. Why not just choose a date to ask for a date and marry the Su family's wife."

"It was Grandma Zhao who mentioned this to her mother again?" Xie Li walked up and said while helping her mother.

"Well, although she always mentioned it inadvertently these days, I can see that this is the main reason why she came here." Qin said with emotion. She is indeed quite agreeing with this matter now. After all, from these days, her son has a relatively safe and stable livelihood in the army. Putting aside the safety of Xiangyang in the end, after his son settles down, marrying and having children will naturally be put on the agenda.

Xie Li smiled and persuaded, "There are people in panic now, and many things are helpless actions in a hurry. When they are stable in the future and there is no such embarrassment, they will regret it and have a lot of conflicts and disputes. So, listen to me, now you can't be anxious. When Grandma Zhao mentions it again, just deal with it, don't take it too seriously."

The mother and son depend on each other for life. Xie Li said this, so Qin naturally would not be too demanding. He was just a little puzzled about him. Najib had been engaged and would always marry him in the future. What would be the difference between the time earlier and later?

Xie Li naturally understood this principle. Although it came from a "civilized society" more than 1,600 years later, it does not mean that he did not understand the marriage customs at this time.

The orders of parents and the words of the matchmaker have already agreed upon here. Children generally do not have the right to decide on their own. The most important thing is that under the background of this era, no one will think that children have the right to do so. Even themselves follow the rules and procedures set in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Although Xie Li came from later generations, he was not so arrogant that he could question this set of marriage rules. Even at this time, it had been running for almost a thousand years. Existence is reasonable, not to mention that it has existed safely for a thousand years, and it has to continue to operate safely for more than a thousand years.

However, Xie Li was not born in this era after all, and the concepts in later generations have taken root in his heart. Although he would not ask others to break this principle and tell them that this behavior is not "civilized", when things happen to him, he still hopes that both parties can make their own decisions after more in-depth understanding.

Moreover, the romance of "the moon rises to the willows, and people make an appointment after dusk." is always more realistic than the matchmaker's mouth.

After having dinner early and chatting with my mother, Xie Li lay on the bed, thinking about the waterways and terrain around the inner city over and over again.

Continuously make plans, deny them, and then make them again. Only after having a preliminary plan did you fall asleep.

In the military camp outside the West City Wall, Du Ba's body was still a little wet.

The Qin army was surrounded by the vigilant Qin army. Although this person kept saying that he had come to surrender, his strong aura made them nervous.

At the stalemate, the crowd ahead was divided into two sides. A gorgeously dressed young man walked up quickly and saw that he looked quite heroic. If he was on that battlefield, he should be a tiger general, but his figure was a little thin, and his expression also revealed a gentleness that was inconsistent with his appearance.

The young man looked at him and said eagerly: "Is it Du Ba and the Commander of Team Du?"

"It's Du!" Du Ba clasped his fists with his hands, and his voice was like a loud bell.

The young man took two steps forward and continued: "I heard about Du Jun's name for a long time. Fu Pi met today. It is a great blessing in life. This place is dark and dull. Please come to the tent to talk to him."

After hearing him, Du Ba was slightly stunned and thought that the person in front of him was Fu Jian’s eldest son! The Changle Gong of Qin! Unexpectedly, in order to soothe people, this person could condescend to meet him in person.
