Chapter 243: One
The army is approaching, and the power disparity is huge.
In the face of absolute power, all clever means are like moths to a flame and are completely useless.
The only things that can work are the arrow feathers hiding in the dark on the city wall.
Fortunately, these people were carefully selected by Zhao Ji, so Su Qingqing didn't need to do any ideological work. After they received the task, they trained much harder than Su Qingqing had imagined.
Su Qingqing was used to seeing soldiers training to defend their country .
But this kind of training of ordinary people, practicing day and night, made her cry.
What made Su Qingqing cry even more was that among these people, there were actually talented ones who could pull the bow to its full length and shoot accurately at the heart in just one or two days.
Such talents were rare, so Su Qingqing immediately gave these people the bows and arrows specially made by the craftsmen, which were used by her and Rong Que, and asked them to continue training.
Zhao Ji informed all the people of Datong County about its current situation, but no one was willing to leave Datong County.
As long as the family is alive, the people are alive; when the family is destroyed, the people are dead.
It has to be said that Zhao Ji is truly a good official. Under his supervision, the entire Datong County is unprecedentedly united at this moment.
Su Qingqing deployed tasks according to the army's dispatch.
Those who dig ditches, those who repair city walls, those who make bows and arrows, those who purchase goods...
Each has his own duties.
Even the little girls in the city who could not lift anything took on tasks within their abilities, such as delivering meals, helping to carry the arrow feathers made by the craftsmen, and helping to transport the soil dug out of the city from the ditches.
A three-meter-wide ditch was dug in the city. Originally, when dealing with the bandits, there was not enough time, so the ditch was only dug at the city gate. Now, while the troops of Marquis Rong'an have not arrived yet, everyone in the city is united and working hard to dig the ditch around the city.
The excavated soil was transported out of the city gate and, according to Su Qingqing's deployment, was used to build a half-person-high protective dam. Behind the protective dam was a trench.
This is a total of three circles inside and outside.
On this day, many people who had been sent out sent back the news. At that time, Su Qingqing was directing the people to dig trenches at the city wall. The news was announced in front of all the people in the city.
"Marquis Rong'an's troops will reach Datong in about one day. In the counties they passed by, some surrendered directly, some were massacred, and some were rejected... The troops are at least 20,000."
Every word was like a thunderbolt, hitting the hearts of the people.
They all looked at Su Qingqing.
During the short few days they spent together, they had already gotten used to treating the Crown Princess as the pillar of the family.
Even Rong Que looked at Su Qingqing.
Su Qingqing looked calm, even the smile in the corners of her eyes was still there, as if she didn't take the 20,000 people seriously at all.
although……
Even if these 20,000 people were to surround the city alive, they might be able to collapse the city wall of Datong County.
Raising her hand, Su Qingqing said, "Since the enemy will arrive tomorrow, there is no need for us to sharpen our weapons before the battle. Go back to sleep, eat well and sleep well, and wait for my notice. If you can't sleep, lie down on the kang!
But it’s better to fall asleep, because I don’t know how many days it will take for you to fall asleep again after tomorrow!”
Military orders are as heavy as a mountain and cannot be questioned.
In the past few days, these people have long been accustomed to obeying Su Qingqing's orders under her high-intensity regulations. They even want to wait for an order before peeing. One, two, three: pee!
Wait until everyone leaves.
Zhao Ji followed Su Qingqing and Rong Que, wiping the sweat from his forehead anxiously, "Your Highness, Your Majesty, when will our troops arrive?"
Does Zhao Ji trust Su Qingqing?
trust!
But this trust has not yet reached the point of blindness.
Rong Que told the truth, "We don't know either."
Su Qingqing smiled at Zhao Ji and said, "Master Zhao, don't be too anxious. If you are too anxious, you will lose your rationality. If you really can't sleep, then I will give you a task. Go and prepare something for me."
Zhao Ji immediately responded, "Hey, what do you want?"
Su Qingqing said, "A strong horse, a bow and arrow, ten quivers, and also a box of ginseng slices."
Rong Que and Zhao Ji were both stunned.
Not to mention that Zhao Ji did not expect Su Qingqing to make such a request, Rong Que did not expect it either.
Jixiang followed beside him, grabbed Su Qingqing's arm and said, "Master, what are you going to do! A horse, why is it a horse!"
Su Qingqing rubbed her hair, and after her eyes swept across Jixiang and Zhao Ji's faces, she finally looked at Rong Que.
"Marquis Rong'an is not like those bandits. He knows my identity. He will definitely not send troops rashly, and he will not ignore Datong County. His caution is our chance. We only have one chance, and we must seize it."
Marquis Rong'an knew that Su Qingqing was Su Qingqing from the Su family army.
With Su Qingqing's reputation, he would never dare to act rashly and must consider a foolproof plan.
It just so happened that Rong'an Hou's concerns just happened to be the only loophole that Su Qingqing and the others could exploit.
After all, no matter how great your reputation is, you can't stop having no soldiers to use.
Su Qingqing took Rong Que's hand and kissed the back of his hand lightly in front of Zhao Ji and Jixiang.
"Your Highness should be familiar with light cavalry night raids. The Su family army is best at raids, not siege warfare. Who in the Su family army knows raids best?"
Rong Que's pupils trembled slightly, and his lips quivered. He parted his lips, but for a moment his chest felt full but he couldn't utter a word.
After the kiss, Su Qingqing turned to Zhao Ji and said, "Go and prepare. Don't tell ."
As long as Su Qingqing is here, people's hearts are here. If Su Qingqing leaves, I'm afraid people's hearts will disperse.
Even Rong Que, the crown prince, is indeed far inferior to Su Qingqing in terms of aura.
The power of the court and the battlefield are incomparable.
There is no other choice.
Again, there is no other choice.
Rong Que even hated himself at this moment.
If he were Wang Yu, if he were Zhao Jiekang... there were no ifs, he was just the prince who had been embroiled in court struggles for more than twenty years of his life.
Not as good as a general on the battlefield.
Zhao Ji quickly prepared everything Su Qingqing wanted. As the sun set, Su Qingqing mounted her horse and galloped away without even looking back.
Looking at Su Qingqing 's back, Zhao Ji couldn't help but ask Rong Que, "The Queen..."
Rong Que stared at the almost invisible black dot in the distance, "It's just what you think."
Zhao Ji's whole body trembled suddenly and his pupils dilated.
Surprisingly, it’s true!
This Crown Princess is actually really ... How is it possible!
How is it impossible!
Who among ordinary people has the courage to make the people of the whole city surrender and be convinced so quickly in such a chaotic and urgent situation?
Apart from General Su of the Su Family Army, who else has this personal charm!
