Chapter 1513 Small Attic
The Chilin Palace still had 300,000 soldiers. He didn't want the war between the two sides to harm the innocent people in the Chilin Imperial City. Seeing that the people had received the food, Xiao Changyi arranged for the people to leave the Imperial City.
After the war was over, he arranged for these people to come back.
The people were moved beyond words. Before leaving the Imperial City, they all kowtowed to Xiao Changyi and his team to thank them.
Before Qiao Shouye said a word for these people, Xiao Changyi had handled everything neatly. No one was harmed, and the people were properly resettled. Qiao Shouye felt that he had made no mistake in surrendering with the people of Shuangli City, and he became more loyal to Xiyun. He was not doing it for himself, he just wanted the people to live well, that's all.
When the people in the Imperial City were sent away, Xiao Changyi did not immediately lead his troops to attack the Chilin Palace.
Now it seems that all the secrets told by the man who was captured alive while spying on the enemy at night are really true, and Xiao Changyi and his team no longer have any doubts.
However, because they had just captured four gates, everyone was exhausted. Even if they attacked the Chilin Palace, they had to wait for everyone to rest.
What's more, Xiao Changyi had no intention of attacking the Chilin Palace. His plan was to wait for the people in the Chilin Palace to come out. Otherwise, let those people starve to death in the Chilin Palace. Anyway, they had more food and grass than them, and they could survive.
Before, he was worried that Chilin's 1.3 million soldiers would go out in full force, causing the situation to be uncontrollable, and they might lose the battle. But now, Chilin's soldiers have been killed by one million, leaving only 300,000, and they have not lost many soldiers and generals. There is no need to attack the palace. Just wait for the people in the palace to come out and catch the turtle in the jar.
Xiao Changyi asked the 50,000 soldiers who were originally stationed in the military camp to guard the Chilin Imperial City and patrol.
These 50,000 soldiers did not participate in the siege, and their physical strength was still very abundant. Now it is just right to guard the city and patrol.
As for the other soldiers, Xiao Changyi asked everyone to rest well.
However, because the palace is in the middle of the imperial city, and they are around the palace, in order to prevent people in the palace from suddenly rushing out, everyone must remain alert at all times even if they are resting, and be ready to fight at any time.
In the imperial city, in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and northeast, as long as there are houses, they are basically inhabited by Xiyun soldiers.
Even if the four gates were captured, everyone, like Xiao Changyi, did not dare to take it lightly. No one dared to take off their clothes when sleeping, for fear that the 300,000 people in the palace would rush out and they would not have time to kill the enemy.
An Jing and Xiao Changyi lived in a restaurant closest to the palace. This restaurant has three floors, and there is a small attic on the third floor. An Jing and Xiao Changyi lived in the small attic.
There was a window in the small attic. An Jing and Xiao Changyi always stood by the window and looked at the palace with a telescope.
Even though this restaurant is closest to the palace, it is actually quite far away, and the palace wall is also very high. In fact, An Jing and Xiao Changyi can't see the situation inside the palace at all, but they can see the situation in front of the main gate of the palace.
A thousand meters in front of the main gate of the palace, some Xiyun soldiers were guarding there to prevent people from rushing out of the palace, and they could stop them there at the first time.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the Xiyun army had already rested, but no one from the Chilin Palace came out.
That day, Ye Zhi came to find An Jing.
