"We must be cautious in this fashion. Although there are many brave workers who have been captured in the craftsman camp, they are not in the ranks. They will suddenly be pulled out, not to mention the problem of rebellion. They will easily cause trouble, but give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it." Le Yangfu, the captain of Jincheng Camp, said, "Our army has few soldiers. If these workers are not barbaric, they will not be able to subdue them after being released. Burning, killing, looting, and looting together inside and outside the city will probably be a disaster."

During the days when defending the city, the two camps of Jincheng Camp, which were originally in the army, were very close to each other. In addition, Xiao Jiu, who was left behind in Lanzhou, was originally from Shu, which made the Jincheng Camp quite close. These three camp lieutenants left behind in Lanzhou each had their own division of labor. Xiao Jiu took overall charge of the overall situation and was personally responsible for the city walls. Le Yangfu led the soldiers of Jincheng Camp to be responsible for the security of the city, while Li Jian was responsible for the management of the craftsmen as camp slaves, creating repair equipment, and distributing supplies and food. These days, they have been intimate in cooperation.

"This is easy. We only choose tribal warriors with family members in the craftsman camp. These people are thinking about the safety of their families and will not rebel dangerously." Li Jian retorted, feeling a little ashamed in his heart. He took charge of the craftsman camp, especially after enriching thousands of work slaves, his mind gradually became much darker. This is probably a common psychological illness in prison guards.

"Let's do this, the clan warriors who can be trusted in the camp will be selected and trained by 500 people. In the future, if the external forces are too tight, they will be supplemented with ten-person teams." Xiao Jiu said in contemplation. The three battalions' lieutenants were all Han people, and their defenses against the Hu clan were more than Xin Gu and Yu Furengui, and their ability to control tribal warriors was weaker. They could only first dismantle the warriors among the work slaves into ten-person teams.

"If the Captain Xin was here, he would probably form a camp of Hu people like the 'Yiluhe' under An Lushan's command as a sharp knife to launch a counterattack against the Song people." Xiao Jiu thought to himself, "There is another good news to tell the two. Lord Chen defeated the Song Dynasty and Dangxiang under the city of Liangzhou. The 30,000 Tubo coalition forces were besieging Lingzhou. He was following the conditions for Dingnan Li's family and the Zhe family surrendering the prefectures and prefectures to negotiate with the court." Xiao Jiu's words were a little regretful. Guasha Gansu's six states, Guasha Gansu, with thousands of elite soldiers, tens of thousands of horses, and the people dared to fight. In these chaotic times of the Five Dynasties, they were the foundation for becoming kings and emperors.

The lieutenants discussed in the city tower until late at night. Xiao Jiuyao looked at the daring lanterns in the Song army camp in the distance, sighed, and did not relieve his iron armor. He fell asleep on a wool blanket next to the commander's position. The cool night breeze filled with waves of golden juice and the stench of broken limbs. Every sound outside was even more pounding. He remembered that his forehead, which had wrinkled, would tremble twice, and he held his hand tightly on the hilt of the sword.

In Lanzhou City, a child's crying sound began to wake up countless people who were not sleeping. "Cry again, throw you into the military camp outside the city." With the mother's intimidation, the crying stopped abruptly.

"Mom, don't be afraid, Dad will definitely come back. With the bravest soldiers, he will kill these cowards outside the city to the point of falling water." Yu Fuhaishan raised his eyebrows. Although the fifteen-year-old military family still has some children on his face, he is about the same height as an ordinary male. He is wearing a short jacket made of Yu Furengui's old military robe. He is almost the same as the strong man guarding the city. He also holds a horizontal knife in his hand, trying to imitate Yu Furengui's expression to comfort his mother Ouyang.

"My mother is not afraid." Ouyang stroked his head, "Before your father came back, there were two men in the Yu Fu family to protect him." She said, while looking at her youngest son Yu Fuyanping who was sleeping soundly in the bedding.

"Mom, will Lord Chen lead his troops to defeat these Song people?" It seemed that he realized that he was always a child in his mother's eyes. Yu Fuhaishan became a little nervous, and even revealed his anxiety in his heart. This time, it was like the chaotic times of the Warring States Period, fighting for the city, killing people to fight for the city, fighting for the land, and killing people to fight for the world. Even a 14 or 15-year-old child, who has been influenced by his childhood, also knows the cruelty of war.

Ouyang smiled lovingly, gently opened the window a crack, and pointed to a high lantern on the flagpole of a large mansion in the distance, which looked particularly eye-catching on the roof. "Did you see that lantern?" Ouyang asked. "See." Yu Fuhaishan nodded. "That is the residence of the mistress, and the mistress is with us. Lord Chen will definitely return to the army to rescue Lanzhou." Ouyang replied affirmatively. Since Lanzhou City was besieged, Gao

The family members of the level officers knew that the main force of the army in the city was thousands of miles away, and it was almost impossible to return to the rescue smoothly, so they only rely on Chen De's own family members in the city, and everyone lived and died together. Since Chen De entered Lanzhou, he led everyone to do many earth-shaking events. Seeing that Huang Wen was also staying in the city, the family members of the soldiers were willing to believe that the Lanzhou army could also create miracles this time.

In a pavilion under the lantern, the baby was sleeping well on the bed. Huang Wen, who had just returned to the room, gently pulled her little finger out of the child's mouth and said softly: "If you bite your finger, you are afraid that the little girl's teeth will become crooked and you will not get married when you grow up." Zhou Hou hummed lowly: "My sister is such a virtuous person, that person can even be cruel and leave you mother and daughter in this dangerous place."

After Chen De attacked Hexi, he had the opportunity to take Huang Wen and others to Hexi, but he was worried that the soldiers' families were all in Lanzhou and there were no less than thousands of people. If Huang Wen and his daughter were taken away, what would the relatives of Xin Gu and Yu Fu Rengui? If the relatives of the officers were taken to Hexi, what would the relatives of the grassroots soldiers be? The Six Hexi Army had already absorbed a lot of fresh blood. It was the critical time for the old soldiers to assimilate the newly attached Guiyi Army and Uighur soldiers into the system.

Once the soldiers were resentful, they might not wait for the enemy to fight and their morale would disperse. Therefore, Chen De insisted that he did not take his relatives out of Lanzhou first. And escorted thousands of soldiers and relatives to move westward, and he had to nearly 10,000 troops. In the four battles in Hexi, he could not draw so many troops back to help for a while, so he had to make a bad move, attack Lingzhou and negotiate with the State of Song. Chen De explained these ins and outs in detail to Xiao Jiu, the left-behind Lanzhou, in the military letter, and Xiao Jiu also reported to Huang Wen through the mansion.

"Let my sister stay in Lanzhou, and my sister here will apologize to my sister on behalf of her husband." Huang Wen smiled slightly, and did not help Chen De defend anything, but made Zhou Hou difficult to continue. Since the Song army besieged the city and the two armies fought, more and more wounded soldiers and strong men, Huang Wen has freed up most of the commander's rooms to accept the wounded soldiers, so that she and Zhou Hou could only squeeze in a room. Not only that, she, as the lord of the mistress, personally led many officers and relatives and women in the city to wrap the wounded and change the dressings for these wounded numbers, and went to the craftsman camp.

Asking for various medicinal herbs, among the soldiers and civilians of Lanzhou who were besieging the city, although she could not fight on the city wall, she was like a centering stone in the minds of the big guys. The wounded and groaned because of the lack of doctors and medicines, she would grit her teeth and endure it when she was patrolling. The situation was originally panicked by the army, but because of the existence of this "miss mother". This situation made Xiao Jiu, who stayed in Lanzhou, feel a illusion that it was not her who stayed in Lanzhou but her wife, and she often reported the situation of the internal and external military and civilians.

Even Zhou Hou, who was arrogant in the past, has become increasingly felt that Huang Wen has a temperament that makes people feel friendly but not dared to invade. "Maybe, this is why the people of Lanzhou are willing to follow her here." Zhou Hou was also a proud woman in the past, but now she feels a little ashamed.

Compared with Lanzhou, which has been attacking and killing continuously, outside Lingzhou City is much more peaceful. Under the atmosphere of peace talks, whether it is the sparse Song army on the city wall or the Han army who runs out of Cao every day, it seems that there is no intention to fight. Every day when the Song army changes its guards, "Don't look at the barbarians of Hedong, the ranks are quite neat!" The bored Hujie soldiers on the city wall watched the Han army go out of Cao and joked with each other.

"You don't understand this. How much money is paid? Their military pay is twice ours. There are dozens of households serving him below. When the Chen surnamed sits in the Longting, everyone is ascending to heaven." He Ping, the commander of Hujie Army, said while wiping the crossbow machine lazily, and his eyes looked at the city were full of envy.

At first, the soldier named Su Ling was named Su Ling. He couldn't help but ask, "Old He, I heard that Lord Dong recommended that the surname Chen be the governor of Shuofang. If we were also under his command, we should at least be on par with the Hedong barbarians below the city."

He Ping thought seriously for a while, shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, if you come first and then arrive, I'll be content with half of them."

Although the reserves in Lingzhou were quite sufficient, there were always some lack of supplies. The forest offered advice to Dong Zunhui and asked the Han army to allow the Song army to send 300 people out of the city every day during the peace talks, and to purchase chicken, duck, vegetables, fruits, medicinal materials and other materials from nearby villages. Chen De understood and released them, and actively expanded the number of people who left the city to 500 people per day. Not only did the Song army in the city not want to fight the Han army to die, but many soldiers and relatives of the Han army were also in Lanzhou, hoping that the two families could negotiate peace. So the Song army and the Han army, who went out to the city to release the city in turn, also had a lot of contacts, and they understood each other's respective situations. As a result, the soldiers of the regular imperial guards, the Hujie army, and the Tongyuan army, who were honestly envious of the treatment of the Han army under Chen De.

The Song army was idle in the city, but the Han army outside the city was not idle. According to Chen De's instructions, the Han army began to check household registrations in various villages, and made orderly preparations to organize the loose Han people outside the city into a rich household.
