    ?

    Acknowledging a person's dedication and hard work is the greatest recognition of this person.

    "Marshal is serious!"

    Huo Xin said contentedly.

    "Marshal, this is something Zhou Heng gave you. I will send it to you at the end. I haven't opened it yet." Huo Xin put the wooden box in front of Zhu Houde.

    Judging from the box, the workmanship is very delicate.

    "Yeah?"

    Zhu Houde carefully looked at the wooden box in front of him.

    "Um."

    Huo Xin nodded.

    "Marshal!"

    Huo Xin and Zhu Houde were chatting, and Ji Ming and others also came in from the outside. Five or six people walked in a hurry, as if they had something important to do.

    "Everyone is here?" Zhu Houde looked at the crowd, but he didn't expect that everyone had already come.

    "The general is here too, so we can go find you later." Ji Ming glanced at Huo Xin and said, looking at Zhu Houde, "The water source in Marshal's city is cut off."

    Ji Ming said.

    What he was worried about finally happened. The Bai Zhan Army intercepted the water source upstream, and the water source in Shengli City has been cut off. Now many people have been cut off from water, and there is no water to drink.

    Once the water source is completely lacking, the army may only be slaughtered.

    "Cut off the water source?"

    Zhu Houde looked at Huo Xin, why didn't he know about this.

    "That's right, there is no water in the army." Ji Ming said, when Ji Ming proposed to send troops to stop the Bai Zhan Army from cutting off the water source, but was stopped by Huo Xin.

    Huo Xin felt that this was Zhou Heng's yin demon, as long as they left the city, Zhou Heng would fight back against them.

    Therefore, instead of blocking the water source, they chose to defend the city. Huo Xin was a general entrusted by Zhu Houde with important tasks, and Ji Ming and others had nothing to say.

    But now the water problem has appeared, everyone has cut off the water, and the situation has become serious. Under such circumstances, Ji Ming felt that they should not pay attention to Huo Xin, but came to ask Zhu Houde directly.

    So Ji Ming and others came to Zhu Houde's mansion.

    "what's up?"

    Zhu Houde asked Huo Xin.

    "The marshal is like this" Huo Xin told all the ins and outs of the incident, it wasn't that he didn't leave the city, it was a conspiracy at first sight.

    "So you're not out of town?"

    After listening to Huo Xin's words, Zhu Houde asked again.

    "That's right, the general thinks this must be Zhou Heng's conspiracy." Huo Xin can say with certainty that this matter is really too weird. Why would Zhou Heng's desire to cut off the water source be noticed by their people, and they even went to cut off the water source?  There are so few people in the water source.

    "Nothing is true, some things should not be too cautious."

    Zhu Houde felt that Huo Xin did something wrong in this matter.

    Going out may be dangerous, but there is also a ray of hope. You stick to the city and don't go out of the city. Now that the water source is cut off, there is only one dead end.

    Zhou Heng faction has few people. From Zhou Heng's point of view, these people are likely to be bait, and they want to use the water source to trick them out of the city, but for them, it is both a trap and an opportunity. The number of people who cut off the water source is small.  Can be easily defeated.

    If you don't see a problem, you can't look at one side, you have to start from the pros and cons.

    There is no absolute benefit in the world, as long as you feel that the profit of what you are doing outweighs the harm, then you can do it.

    "The marshal means we should leave the city?"

    Huo Xin seemed to have seen Zhu Houde's thoughts.

    "That's right."

    Zhu Houde nodded slowly. They should go out of the city. Zhou Heng sent troops to harass them, which is nothing.

    They can contain Zhou Heng and create opportunities for them.

    Zhu Houde said that he would stick to Shengli City, but this does not mean that he would stay in Shengli City without leaving the city. If so, they would be in a cocoon.

    They want to seek new breakthroughs in the process of defending the city.

    "Then what should we do now? Do we want to seize the water source?"

    Huo Xin asked Zhu Houde what he meant.

    "want."

    Zhu Houde said that the water problem has become more serious now, and they must find a way to solve it, otherwise they will really wait to die.

    "yes."

    Huo Xin nodded.

    "You restrain Zhou Heng and the Bai Zhan Army, and I will bring 5,000 people there!"

    Zhu Houde said seriously.

    "Marshal also?Let me go, let Ji Ming and the others contain Zhou Heng and the Bai Zhan Army.  After hearing Zhu Houde's words, Huo Xin stood up and decided to go by himself.

    Zhu Houde's situation has just improved now, there is no need to go out in person, if he is injured, it will make matters worse.

    "It's okay, I, Zhu Houde, have also marched and fought for half my life, and I am not so hypocritical. This matter has been decided in this way, and you just listen to me."

    Zhu Houde said seriously.

    It seems that there is no room for negotiation on this matter.

    "clear!"

    Seeing Zhu Houde's decision, everyone has no objection. After all, Zhu Houde is their marshal, and they, as generals, must obey the marshal's orders.

    "Open!"

    After everything was settled, Zhu Houde ordered someone to open Zhou Heng's gift.

    "yes."

    Pry open the copper lock on the top, slowly open the wooden box, the wooden box slowly opened Zhu Houde's eyes fell on the things inside the box.

    "Um?"

    Zhu Houde hummed, and took a step back suddenly, his complexion suddenly turned pale.

    "I'm angry too, Zhou Heng, I swear against you!" Zhu Houde's body trembled with anger, Zhu Houde clenched his fists, followed by an ugly face, and spit out a mouthful of blood directly on the gift Zhou Heng sent  .

    "Marshal!"

    Everyone immediately stepped forward to help.

    "Zhou Heng humiliated me, this hatred is irreconcilable." Zhu Houde wished he could get rid of Zhou Heng, wished he could cut Zhou Heng into pieces.

    "Marshal!"

    Huo Xin asked Zhu Houde to sit down and rest, turned around and glanced at the contents in the box, Huo Xin frowned, the contents in the box were familiar to Huo Xin.

    It is Zhu Houde's cloak, the cloak that Zhu Houde dropped from Zhou Heng's pursuit.

    At that time, Zhu Houde asked someone to wear his cloak to pretend to be himself.

    Now Zhou Heng sent Zhu Houde's cloak here, which is to say that Zhu Houde was greedy for life and afraid of death, and fled in embarrassment.

    Moreover, Huo Xin discovered that the cloak had been modified and changed into a woman's clothes. Zhou Heng wanted to use this to humiliate Zhu Houde.

    How vicious and insidious this is.

    A scholar can be killed but cannot be humiliated, but Zhou Heng dared to humiliate Zhu Houde like this.

    "Despicable!"

    Huo Xin gritted his teeth and said.

    "Hurry up and take the things down and burn them." Ji Ming waved his hand, and asked people to take down the clothes and burn them, out of sight and out of mind, so as not to be troubled by seeing them every day.

    "I didn't expect Zhou Heng to be so shameless and despicable."

    "This insidious villain, who has no hope of attacking the city, actually used such a vicious method, it is not the actions of a real man."

    Huo Xin, Ji Ming and the others felt that Zhou Heng's actions were disgraceful. Zhou Heng was humiliating others, especially Zhu Houde's identity.

    How could the Lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty, the Marshal of the Grand Army, endure such humiliation by Zhou Heng? Zhou Heng wanted to piss off Zhu Houde to death.

    "Wait a minute."

    With a weak tone, Zhu Houde stopped the person who took it to burn the clothes.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
