Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost
Chapter 265 Endless Waiting
Lu Xunhuan was walking alone on the street, thinking as he walked.
The soldiers ran back and forth past him, but he pretended not to see them.
The world is like a chess game, one move moves everything.
All four countries have taken action, what is Western Chu doing?
While he was thinking, he felt someone in front of him and was about to bump into him, so he stopped immediately.
But the next moment, before he could come to his senses, the fragrance hit him and he was hugged tightly by a woman.
The woman said excitedly.
"I knew you would come. I finally see you again."
Lu Xunhuan quickly separated her and turned to look at the soldiers coming and going, feeling quite embarrassed.
He never dreamed that he would meet his wife in this place.
At that time, the governor of Nanjun City Prefecture was demoted and said he was going back to his hometown.
Of course, he didn't know where the other person's hometown was, and he didn't ask.
The lady pulled him around and said, "Follow me."
The two of them hurried off the street and into the alley.
He ran more than twenty feet along the narrow alley.
The lady pushed open a small door and pulled him into a yard.
Then, he pulled him across the yard and straight into the room.
As soon as she entered the room, she hugged Lu Xunhuan tightly again.
"Chenglong..."
Lu Xunhuan asked quietly, "Is this where you live?"
The lady looked up.
"Yes, my house."
"That old thing died of depression not long after he came back. I gave that little concubine some money and told her to get out."
"Now, I am the master here."
Lu Xunhuan asked again, "Where's the child?"
The lady replied, "Before the Southern Liang army captured Nanjun City, I sent my maids and servants to take them to Qishui County, where my mother's family is from. I told them to take refuge at my grandparents' house and return after the war."
She went on to say, "Everyone persuaded me to go, but if I leave, I will have to see what happens to this house."
"Also, I guess you will come. I'm waiting for you."
Lu Xunhuan seemed to be thinking: "Wait..."
The lady looked at him infatuatedly: "Ride a dragon..."
Then, she kissed him passionately..."
"Chenglong..."
"I love you……"
The passion is like a volcano erupting, and it is out of control.
……
Half a month passed as both sides continued to receive reinforcements and deploy troops.
As reinforcements from various places continued to arrive, the small city of Tongcheng could no longer accommodate them.
After Yan Bei and Lu Xunhuan went south to scout the terrain several times, they ordered the entire army to leave the city and arrived ten miles north of Nanjun City.
Occupied two large mountains north of the city.
The army went up along the foot of the mountain and set up camp step by step.
The entire camp is divided into left and right, and between the two mountains is the main road leading to Tongcheng.
After the soldiers arrived at the designated location, in addition to setting up camp, they also dug trenches, built bunkers, and even dug caves.
Food and supplies continued to arrive from the rear and were hidden in the caves.
The Nanjun army naturally saw the Dongyan people setting up camp on the two large mountains in the north, but they did not attack.
Because there was strict protection in front of the Dongyan camp.
The outskirts of the camp were blocked by chariots, and behind the high wooden walls were heavy defenses.
Whether it was the cavalry, infantry, archers, or catapults of the Southern Liang people, they might not be able to smash through the chariots.
It would take a lot of effort to destroy the rows of chariots and attack the Eastern Yan soldiers who were camped there, and it was unknown how many people would die on the battlefield.
Therefore, the people of Southern Liang did not move.
They guarded Nanjun City tightly, waiting for the Dongyan people to attack.
After occupying the two mountains, the soldiers of Dong Yan worked hard on the mountains for five days before they were basically able to complete the task.
As long as the enemy doesn't attack, everyone can eat, drink and sleep well.
There is a protruding place on the East Mountain with a good view.
You can see the entire city wall of Nanjun City at a glance, and you can see all the movements below at a glance.
The second prince Yan Bei’s camp was located in that prominent place, so he could observe the overall situation.
The flanks of the two mountains, including the tops of the mountains, were also guarded by soldiers from Eastern Yan.
The people of Southern Liang wanted to bypass the front and attack the people of Eastern Yan. No matter which direction they left the city, they would be under the eyes of the people of Eastern Yan.
After Yan Bei occupied the protruding area, he ordered his soldiers to build some barriers on the spot.
Even if the enemy knew that the commander lived here, they would have to cross the barrier first if they wanted to launch a surprise attack.
It is not so easy to build those fortresses where one man can hold the fort against ten thousand men.
On the West Mountain, Lu Xunhuan lived in an open area halfway up the mountain.
There were caves dug there, filled with countless grains and supplies.
He was sitting at the entrance of the cave, looking at the moat outside the north gate of Nanjun, which was usually called Beihegou.
Although Beihegou is just called a ditch, it is actually quite wide.
In addition, the river is quite wide due to the rising water level in spring.
If the soldiers of Eastern Yan wanted to attack the city, they had to cross the river first.
But there is only one bridge.
A suspension bridge only ten feet wide.
And the bridge is in the hands of the other party.
How do you live?
If we force our way across the river and attack, there will inevitably be heavy casualties.
How can we attack the city without crossing the river?
You can't just put the catapult on the north bank and smash it endlessly, right?
To break the city, we must eventually land on the other side.
On the opposite bank is the high city wall of Nanjun City.
The only access is the suspension bridge outside the north city gate.
At this time, the Beihegou had become an insurmountable natural barrier for the army to attack the city.
Apart from a frontal attack, other options are not easy to think of.
The main reason was that there were too many Southern Liang soldiers in Nanjun City.
Even if we send a special force and march around to the east or west gate of Nanjun City late at night, we will not have the upper hand in terms of manpower. Not only will we fail to capture the city, but we may also suffer heavy losses.
In the past few days, Yan Bei has sent people from Dongshan Mountain to ask him several times.
His answer was just one word, "wait."
The northern part of Dongyan is a granary, and food is being delivered continuously. There is no need to rush. Just consume it slowly.
However, it was much more difficult to supply food to Southern Liang.
Their grain transport army had a long way to go on the Southern Liang side.
After going through untold hardships to cross Yuling Pass, it was still another five hundred miles from Yuling Pass to Nanjun City.
But after the people of Nanliang absorbed Lu Xunhuan's previous advanced ideas, the first thing they thought of wherever they went was to build roads.
These days, a lot of craftsmen have been transferred from Nanliang, crossing the Yuling Pass, and are rushing to widen the road from Yuling Pass to Nanjun City.
This will allow the army to reinforce or transport food more quickly.
A steady stream of intelligence is delivered to Yan Bei and Lu Xunhuan every day.
Therefore, Lu Xunhuan also knew that the people from Nanliang were building a road.
Yan Bei was very anxious.
Once the people of Southern Liang repair the road, it will be convenient to transport troops and food, and it will be more difficult to retake Nanjun.
But Lu Xunhuan delayed attacking the city on the grounds that the time was not ripe.
Yan Bei also knew that attacking the city now would inevitably come at a huge price.
So he was anxious, but there was nothing he could do but wait.
After watching on the mountain for two days, Lu Xunhuan took one night to secretly return to the Dragon Palace.
The next day, he rushed back.
Then he waited again.
