Chapter 586: Entering the Prison (8)
Chapter 587: Entering the Prison (8)
The news of the assassination of the crown prince Yingdan quickly spread throughout the Yanzhou continent, and when Chen Hai and Dong Liang rushed to Tianying Cliff to meet Miao Fengshan, Tianshui County, Qinchuan County and other sect lords were the first to panic.
Now the coalition forces are still glued together based on inertia, and if it takes some time, I am afraid it will be difficult to clean up.
Wu En is in charge of the Huayang Sect, and he usually doesn't pay much attention to mundane affairs, while the military and political affairs of Tianshui County are in charge of Wu Cheng and Qu Xiyuan.
When the news came that the Hexi Iron Cavalry bypassed the Yandang City guarded by the Tiger Ben Army and directly took Tongkou City, Wu En, who was in the Guanghua Cave Mansion, no longer had the heart to insist on the unremitting daily morning class practice, but stood in front of a cliff with a frown, and the unspeakable sorrow and fear in his heart were unspeakable, but he didn't know how to solve it.
No one thought that in just a few days, his black hair would be a little frosty.
After all, no matter how big the brain hole was given to him, he didn't dare to think that in the end, Hexi and Long Xiangjun would be able to get together.
Although there is no intention of attacking Yandang and Hengshan for the time being, the mouth of the four or five million allied generals who retreated from the west of the Horse Ridge has been temporarily blocked.
On the one hand, Wu En was worried that the millions of coalition generals who had no leader would frantically flee from Yandang and Tianshui, leaving only the Huayang Sect and the Wu and Qu clans alone to face the attack of the Longxiang Army and the Hexi Wuwei Army from both sides, on the other hand, Wu En was even more worried that the millions of coalition troops without a leader would leave their pawns in Tianshui County in a mess, which would be a terrible disaster for Tianshui County.
The grain road borrowed from Jiyang County and came through Qimaling was cut off, and millions of generals asked for 70,000 or 80,000 catties of grain and grass every day when they opened their mouths. It takes 2.45 million stone grain and grass a month to ensure that the coalition army is not disturbed.
The annual tax burden collected by Tianshui County is only about 10 million stones, plus the family property of Wu, Qu and other large sects, there can be a harvest of 20 million stone of grain in Dingtian every year, but excluding the supply of 400,000 Tianshui County soldiers, the operation of the government and county official offices, and the cultivation of tens of thousands of disciples of Huayang Sect, the remaining grain can only supply millions of generals of the coalition army to support one month.
A month later, the coalition forces could not break out of the encirclement, and withdrew from Yuchengling and Chomaling, and millions of soldiers and horses were in chaos due to famine, and the first must have been Tianshui County and Huayangzong were looted by the coalition forces.
When Wu Enzheng was frowning, dozens of rainbow lights swept from afar.
After dozens of people fell in front of the gate of Huayang Sect, Wu Encai sensed that it was Tu Que, Rong Yan and the main generals of the rebel army sent by the lords, and rushed over to visit together.
Speaking of the Gyeonggi Six Valve, this time it was really unlucky.
Fortunately, the Tu clan is only a few people such as Tu Que who followed the prince to win Dan and went west, and the elite children are still in Jiyang County, east of Qimaling and Huangelk Plain, but the Rong clan, the Xiong clan, and the Zhao clan, hundreds of thousands of clansmen have moved into Yandang Plain with the 200,000 Xiyuan army.
The generals of the Xiyuan Army may still be able to pass through the gap between the Yucheng Mountains and escape back to Jiyang County, after all, Hexi has limited soldiers and horses invested in the northern front, and there is no way to completely seal the thousands of miles of Yucheng Ridge, and the main force of the Longxiang Army is still in Qintong Mountain or the Gyeonggi Plain east of Qintong Mountain, but how can hundreds of thousands of people of Rong, Xiong and other tribes escape from the eyes and noses of Hexi Iron Cavalry?
Sympathetic, Wu En rubbed his stiff cheeks, and forced himself to squeeze out a smile to meet him.
Rao is Wu En was mentally prepared, but when he saw Tu Que, Rong Yan and others, he was still a little apprehensive and contradictory in his heart.
On the one hand, he hoped that Tu Que and Rong Yan, who had served as a lieutenant in the imperial court, Zuo Cheng's important position, and the highest popularity, could stand up and turn the tide, and after the prince won Dan, they would become the new core soul of the allied forces of the lords, commanding millions of soldiers and horses, and fighting to the end with the Longxiang army and the Hexi Iron Cavalry, but on the other hand, he hoped that the coalition army could break out of the encirclement as soon as possible and escape from Tianshui County, so that Tianshui County might still be able to ensure that its vitality was not injured.
It's just that all this is just his own fantasy.
Letting Tu Que and the others into the Purple Qi Pavilion, looking at Tu Que and the others with sad faces, Wu En felt a little sad in his heart.
There was silence in the Purple Qi Pavilion for a while, and Tu Que slowly spoke: "Wu Valve, I don't know what you think of the book issued by Chen Hai to persuade the lords to be loyal to Emperor Ning to conquer the heavens and the earth?"
Wu En was stunned and said: "How long has it been since the incident, and Chen Hai, the thief, has already sent out a letter of persuasion to surrender, doesn't he treat the more than 3,000 raiding lords in the world as if they were nothing?
Tu Que sighed and said, "Lord Wu has never seen the letter of persuasion, and he may not know some new trends...... as he said and handed a piece of dragon pattern silk dragon to Wu En.
Wu En took it suspiciously, looked at it, his brows gradually furrowed, and asked with a miserable face after a long time: "Could it be that there is really a great catastrophe of heaven and earth in the northwest region, and the Taoist Zen Academy has really existed to protect Yanzhou and resist the catastrophe for thousands of years?"
Tu Que spread his hands and smiled sadly, and said, "Who knows? Maybe the text is just an excuse for Chen Hai to establish the status of Emperor Guining and re-establish the Taoist system for the Taoist Academy. ”
Wu En, Rong Yan and the others also looked at each other, on the one hand, they didn't believe in the so-called Heaven and Earth Tribulation, they didn't believe that the Dao Zen Academy had been inherited for more than ten generations, and it was only to resist the Great Tribulation, on the other hand, even if there was really a tragic Heaven and Earth Tribulation in the Northwest Regions, then they should move east to avoid disaster, but block the mouth of the eastward invasion of hundreds of millions of blood demons and send them to death.
The lights of the Purple Air Pavilion were not extinguished until dawn, and the result of everyone's deliberation was that the generals of the coalition army, the soldiers of Tianshui County, and the Musashi Army gathered on the front line of Hengshan as much as possible, and the military rations of Tianshui County and Qinchuan County were requisitioned for a month, and they fought to break out of the siege and withdraw from the east of Qima Ridge within a month.
Wu En and Hua Bo, the current lord of Qinchuan County, glanced at each other, neither of them said anything, but they could see the deep worry in each other's eyes.
If the soldiers and horses blocking Yuchengling in Hexi can be defeated, millions of allied generals will naturally be able to retreat eastward in a hurry, but the children of Huayang Sect and Wenqing Sect, as well as the soldiers of Tianshui County and Musashi Army, their millions of relatives will remain west of Qintong Mountain, will they be willing to abandon their relatives and nephews and retreat eastward?
Several passes in Qintong Mountain were blocked by the Longxiang army, and by the beginning of November, the northern region was already extremely cold, and millions of ordinary people of the ordinary nationality lacked food and clothing, and it was impossible to withdraw from the icy and snowy Choma Ridge.
Or maybe abandon the ordinary disciples and generals, and only lead more than a thousand elite disciples to retreat east?
However, in this case, what is the difference between them and the Helan Sword Sect where the lost dog evacuated from Hexiang County.
At the same time, there are worries, that is, Rong Yan, Fan Chun and others who have moved their clansmen into Yandang Plain.
They would rather believe that what Chen Hai said was a lie, so that they could be loyal to the new emperor without psychological pressure. The crown prince Yingdan has fallen into the hands of the Long Xiang army, and if no clan wants to establish himself as the emperor at this time, then Emperor Guining will naturally be the emperor......
Of course, there are also people who are in a fierce mood in their hearts, wanting to be a man as a horse leather shroud and die on the battlefield, in their opinion, it is always better to die vigorously in the bloody battle of the demon than to die in the chaotic battle of the sect lord.
***********************
The sunshine in the cold winter season can no longer dispel the severe cold, but that bit of light can always bring people a glimmer of hope.
In the Yuanhua Fortress City, Wei Ziya was pacing back and forth anxiously in the meditation room, since last night, tens of thousands of generals of the Fourth Town Division of the Longxiang Army have begun to assemble towards the Yuanhua Fortress.
Who would have thought that the Hexi Wuwei Army would conspire with the Long Xiang Army, and who would have thought that the crown prince Ying Dan, Ning Yongnian and other heroes would easily fall into the calculations of Chen Hai and Dong Liang?
Yu Zonghu has come to ask for advice many times, but what strategy can Wei Ziya have at this time?
The allied forces of the various sects west of Qintong Mountain, the dragons have no leader, and it is already a fluke that there is no immediate chaos, and it is no longer possible to launch an offensive against Qintong Mountain from Hengshan, from the western pass of Qintong Pass, and from the Tongnan Ancient Road, which means that the Longxiang army east of Qintong Mountain can free up their hands at this time and launch a desperate blow to Wusheng Pass.
And the fact that the Long Xiang army can fight out of Wusheng Pass means that it can establish a second line of defense outside the Yucheng Ridge to block the eastward escape of the coalition army.
The remnants of the 200,000 Su Guards and the 200,000 Xiyuan Army in turmoil can resist the determination of the Long Xiang Army to fight out of Wusheng Pass?
Wei Ziya didn't need to go out of the quiet room at this time—he didn't want to go out of the quiet room to watch Yu Zonghu, Zhao Zhong, and Chen Xuanzhen command and defend—he could sense that among the hundreds of thousands of Longxiang generals advancing north, a total of twenty-six super rifled crossbows were used, dragged by tractors, and crushed the rocky ground at the bottom of the valley.
Although the Yuanhua Plug is supported by the Eight Heavenly Capital Formations, under the continuous bombardment of the super rifled crossbow, how long can the Yuanhua Plug hold on, Wei Ziya really has no bottom, and he doesn't even know if Chen Hai and Cangyi, Huang Qiwei, Xie Jueyuan and others have returned to Yanjing after assassinating the crown prince Ying Dan.
The crown prince Yingdan was captured, and the coalition army finally failed, and Wei Ziya suddenly found that Long Xiang's army was so strong.
I don't know how long I sat there, but I heard a loud bang, and half of the hall here was shattered, Wei Ziya didn't need to look to know that the Eight Heavenly Capital Array was penetrated by the Long Xiang Army.
Immediately after that, there was a huge earthquake in Wei Ziya's quiet room, followed by a moxibustion fever, which should have been a violent heavy arrow falling near him, and in a few moments, half of the walls of the stone hall where he was located were burned red, almost melted through.
After a while, Chen Xuanzhen hurriedly stepped into the room and cried to Wei Ziya: "Master, let's go, the southern city wall has been knocked down, and the Long Xiang army is about to rush into the city." The soldiers and horses of the Xiyuan Army stationed in the North Third Pass are unstable, and we may be able to follow Senior Brother Yu's 50,000 elites to kill out of the North Third Pass!"
"Follow the army, the goal is so big, how can Chen Hai, a thief, let us go?" Wei Ziya said with a sad smile, "Let's go." ”
"Huh?" Chen Xuanzhen didn't expect that Shizun would have the idea of taking him to escape alone!
