Liang Changguo has been planning for a long time, and it is very likely that he will send someone to intercept Shan Yang City halfway. However, her father had a lot of experience in warfare, and if he didn't see a response from the imperial court, he would definitely be aware that there might be a problem with the urgent report, and her father would be more cautious in the future. However, for five months in a row, I still haven't received any news from Shan Yang City, why is this? To make an assumption, the urgent report arrived in Pingcheng, but the emperor didn't see it, if this is the case, there is another possibility, that is, there are other people in the court and Liangchang people secretly colluding.

Shu Qingyue didn't believe that her father would make mistakes again and again in expediting, so she was more inclined to the latter possibility.

Someone in the court stopped the rush of Shan Yang City.

But who could that person be?

With this ability in the court and hostility towards his father, Shu Qingyue thought of two people, one was Prime Minister Zhou Pingshen, and the other was Ning Sichen's sister Ning Feixue.

Thinking of Ning Feixue, Shu Qingyue couldn't help but look at Ning Sichen, at this time his face was calm, but his eyes were extremely deep, and he was also thinking seriously.

Combined with what Deng Chenglin and Ye Xiangquan said before, Ning Sichen already roughly understood the entire ins and outs of the battle in Danyang City. His sister colluded with the people of Liangchang and launched this war, but Liangchangguo underestimated Shu Shengxuan, the two armies fought for a long time, and Liangchangguo was even more negligent, so that the urgent report of Shanyang City was sent to Pingcheng, that is, the urgent report at the beginning, which almost broke the big thing, but fortunately, the emperor at that time was extremely fond of his sister, and his sister must have said something in front of the emperor, and the matter was finally closed. After that, Dan Danyang City's urgency was either intercepted by the Liangchang people, or his sister secretly stopped it. And the reason why the last letter was able to be sent to the emperor smoothly was because his sister felt that the time was ripe and it was his turn to appear.

Every step here is deliberate and calculated.

His sister?

Ning Feixue's actions, even Ning Sichen, who was his younger brother, were very shocking.

Hatred can make a person so terrible.

"What about the marshal and the second general?" Yue Rongfei didn't investigate what was wrong with the eight-hundred-mile expeditious, the top priority was the current battle situation, he asked again. The news of the arrival of reinforcements has spread in Shan Yang City, and they have stayed in the military tent for almost half an hour, but they still don't see Shu Shengxuan and Shu Zhenxuan, aren't they in the city? Knowing the battle situation in Shan Yang City, Yue Rongfei's heart was already very heavy, and suddenly, he had a very bad feeling.

Shu Qingyue also seemed to sense something, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

"The marshal and the second general have been trapped in the Limestone Valley for a month." Sure enough, Deng Chenglin's words verified the uneasiness in Yue Rongfei and Shu Qingyue's hearts.

"The marshal and the second general are trapped?" Yue Rongfei's face changed greatly.

Yue Rongfei and Shu Qingyue had their hands connected, and at the same time, he felt her whole body tremble violently.

"In the past few months, our army has suffered heavy casualties, and its strength is less than 50,000. On the side of Liangchang Kingdom, more than 200,000 people surrounded the city, and attacked the city every few days. The marshal thought twice, and after writing the last excerpt, he left 20,000 men to continue to defend the city, and he himself took 20,000 men out of the city, intending to break the enemy's offensive one by one. However, the difference in strength was too great, and the marshal and the others were finally forced into the Limestone Valley by the army of Liangchang State. Deng Chenglin said as he pointed to a location on the map. Here it is. The limestone valley is treacherous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but behind it is a cliff and there is no way back. The forces of Liangchangguo were divided into two, one part continued to attack the city, and more were besieged outside the limestone valley, it has been a month, I speculate that Liangchangguo wants to trap the marshal and them alive in the valley. ”

"Why don't you go to the rescue?" Yue Rongfei asked Deng Chenglin, but as soon as he thought about it, there were only 20,000 troops in Danyang City, and it was difficult to protect himself, so how could he save Shu Shengxuan and them. It's not that I don't want to save, but I can't do anything at all.

For a month, without water and food, the marshal should be almost at the limit.

"General Yue, it's good that you have arrived, hurry up and save the marshal." Deng Chenglin was also extremely worried about Shu Shengxuan's situation. "General Yue, how many people have you brought?"

"One hundred thousand." Yue Rongfei's voice was a little low.

plus 100,000 reinforcements, and the strength of Liangchang is still a cut away.

"Only 100,000?" Yue Rongfei's words were like an ice rain on Deng Chenglin, and the hope that arose was extinguished again, and Deng Chenglin's whole person suddenly felt a little powerless.

"Let's go and save the marshal first." Yue Rongfei said. No matter how difficult this battle is, he must also rescue Shu Shengxuan and them, absolutely can't, absolutely can't...... He looked at Shu Qingyue on the side, her face was already pale.

"Don't say 100,000 people, even if you add 20,000 in the city, it's still not enough." Deng Chenglin shook his head weakly, and the finger he landed on the map moved forward. "In front of the Limestone Valley is a forest, where the Liangchang Kingdom has 150,000 troops. The forest is surrounded by plains, and there is no shelter, so it is impossible for us to sneak close to the woods, so we can only take it by force, but with our current strength, it is difficult to succeed in the attack. ”

Besides, they can't all go out of the city, and some of them must stay in Shan Yang City.

The reinforcements arrived, but they couldn't save them, not only Deng Chenglin, but Yue Rongfei was also a little anxious.

Only, Ning Sichen calmly studied the map.

"300,000, it should be the strength of the whole country of Liangchang." Ning Sichen said as he pointed and scratched on the map. "This is Qiyang, the capital of Liangchang Kingdom, less than 100 miles away from Shanyang City."

"You want to take advantage of Qiyang's emptiness and break through it in one fell swoop." Yue Rongfei was the first to react.

"If our army goes to attack Qiyang, what will happen to Shan Yang City, and what will the marshal do?" Deng Chenglin's strategy was not as good as Ning Sichen's, and he didn't think far enough.

"Qiyang is in danger, does the enemy still have the strength to take care of this side?" Ning Sichen and Yue Rongfei glanced at each other.

"No." Yue Rongfei objected. What Ning Sichen said was certainly a good idea, but the risks they had to take were too great. It will take time to conquer Qiyang, and the situation in the Limestone Valley is unknown, if it can't be supported, or if the enemy army attacks first, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Compared with the victory of the war, Yue Rongfei cared more about the lives of Shu Shengxuan and Shu Zhenxuan.

"Marshal Shu is not here, General Ben is the commander of the army." Ning Sichen is a person who makes a decision on the spot, and since he has already decided, he will not change his mind because of Yue Rongfei's inappropriate words, he gave an order. "The whole army is reorganized, and after two hours, 50,000 horses will raid the capital of Liangchang with me, and the other 50,000 will cooperate with General Deng to defend the city in case of emergency."
