Chapter 225: A Desperate Shot

After this battle, the battle of Hongcheng's 300,000 troops to attack the camp of the southern army without much effort shocked the world again, and everyone did not understand how the king of the south was defeated, and it was obviously the same number of troops, how could the army of Hongcheng enter the camp without much effort, and even lost nearly 200,000 people to the king of the south.

200,000, such a huge number of troops, how can they be like flowing water in front of the Hongcheng army, saying that it is gone.

Yang Jinchen, who fled back to Yonglin, was black for a while, looking at the 300,000 troops in his hands for a few days with only 100,000 left, then he regretted that he didn't listen to the words of Jiang De, who was escorted back to Qishan, after this lesson, he was sure that there must be a master in Hongcheng to guide him, and it was definitely not that he thought that the previous battle was a fluke in Hongcheng.

He was really careless.

After thinking about it, he decided to investigate the affairs of Hongcheng first before making a decision, and never rushed to capture Hongcheng.

When he had made up his mind, he immediately ordered someone to investigate.

In Hongcheng, the people on both sides of the streets spontaneously hung up lanterns, cheered, and rushed to tell each other the good news.

Looking at this celebratory moment, Qiandai pulled the corners of her mouth slightly.

Then he sighed lowly.

"What's wrong?" Yu Xuan, who was standing beside him, heard Qian Dai's sigh and couldn't help but ask.

Qian Dai shook her head and looked at the empty place outside the city, where the Southern Army had been before.

Whispered, "Nothing." ”

Yu Xuan followed her gaze, but found that there was nothing, and frowned.

"Have you already shipped that batch of things?" At this time, Qian Dai spoke up.

Yu Xuan was stunned for a moment and nodded, "The second team is already on the way, presumably the day after tomorrow." ”

Qian Dai nodded, then glanced at the people in the city, and said softly: "The big battle is coming, let everyone try to recuperate as much as possible in the past two days, and in addition, order the two teams to secretly go to Fengcheng and pay close attention to Shilin City."

"Stone Forest City?" Yu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then frowned: "Although Stone Forest City is close to Fengcheng, it is just a lonely city, surrounded by mountains and forests, why should you pay attention to it." ”

"King Nan has been fighting with the emperor for so many years, how can he not rely on it, and now he is unprepared." Qiandai said in a low voice.

"Stone Forest City is surrounded by mountains and is a lonely city, Yu Xuan, where do you think it is best to do something?"

Stone Forest City, there is only one way in and out of Fengcheng, and few people go to it on weekdays, and it is surrounded by mountains and forests, what is the best thing to do, Yu Xuan thought quietly for a moment, and then his eyes were solemn, "Hide soldiers." ”

It is no wonder that the first cities to occupy forests in the north of Nanwangfu were Yonglin and Fengcheng.

Before, he was wondering why the Nanwang Mansion wanted to occupy Fengcheng, because Fengcheng was not big, and it was not as good as another Du'an City, which was known as a small granary, in any respect.

Moreover, he had carefully looked at the map before, and Du'an City had to occupy more than Fengcheng, and it was relatively close to Yonglin and Hongcheng.

But on the contrary, Nanwangfu is occupied, and Fengcheng has no role in his eyes.

At this time, it was explained that if the Nanwang Mansion hid soldiers in Shilin City, they would naturally have to control the entrance and exit of their place to hide the troops.

It's just that in this case, Hongcheng has another layer of threat, no wonder Qiandai wants to let the two teams squat to defend Fengcheng.

Realizing the importance of the matter, he immediately nodded in response.

As he spoke, he turned around to leave, and suddenly turned back again, "There are two other pieces of news to sue you." ”

It was rare to see Yu Xuan so strict, Qian Dai was slightly stunned, and said softly: "Let's talk about the good news first." ”

Yu Xuan nodded, he also had this intention, "The good news is that the Xiliang Dynasty has been purged under the joint efforts of the Western Emperor and the King of Xiaoyao, and several princes and old princes who provoked civil strife have been disposed of, and they will announce their withdrawal from the army in a few days." ”

"Good news indeed." Without Xiliang's army, the crisis in Gucheng was half solved at this time.

Yu Xuan nodded, then looked at Qian Dai and said, "Now let's talk about the bad news." ”

After a pause, "King Yi is gone." ”

Murong Yichen was gone, Qian Dai paused as she walked forward, and turned her head to look at Yu Xuan, "When?" Where is it missing. ”

"The news said that two days ago, as soon as King Yi left Gucheng, he was intercepted and killed by unknown people, and King Yi was injured and disappeared."

"Is he hurt?" Qiandai's eyes froze, and she looked up at the sky and asked softly.

"Yes." Yu Xuan replied in a heavy tone.

"What about the people around him, are they also missing?"

Yu Xuan nodded.

"He'll be fine." Qian Dai lowered her head and said softly.

"Aren't you worried about him?"

"What's the use of worrying." Qian Dai tugged at the corners of her mouth slightly, "I trust him more." ”

Three days later, the news that the Western Dynasty Bureau was shuffled spread all over the world, and at the same time, the Western Emperor announced his abdication to the prince of Xiliang, Nangong Haoyue.

On the second day of the following, Nangong Haoyue's enthronement ceremony was very lively.

After ascending the throne, Nangong Haoyue first announced an eternal alliance with Northern Xinjiang, and at the same time announced the withdrawal of the army from Great Chu, since then, the Western Liang army has withdrawn outside Jiayu Pass.

The pressure on Gucheng decreased sharply, but the 500,000 troops of the Northern King were still facing each other outside the city, and at the same time, the southern city increased its troops towards Fengcheng, and the 300,000 army immediately captured three cities within a radius of 100 miles in addition to Gucheng, and at the same time took Gucheng as the center, and approached Gucheng in a surrounding manner.

At the last moment, Xinyang, which was located behind Gucheng, took the lead to support, led by Xinyang Taishou himself, with an army of 200,000 all the way to fight, and took the lead in supporting the two cities of Xinfeng and Huangshi south of Gucheng, which were far away from Fengcheng, completely blocking the road of the Beiwang army to the south.

There was a huge disparity between the 800,000 and 500,000 armies, but they still trapped the northern army and prevented them from moving.

The northern army was stopped from advancing, and was completely enraged, and immediately launched a fierce offensive against Gucheng and Xinfeng, but every time they were about to succeed, they would be killed back outside the city by the soldiers defending the city.

In the past few days, the battles between Gucheng and Xinfeng have been frequent, and the city and the outside of the city are full of corpses and dried blood that have not had time to be cleaned up, the dazzling bright red and dark red are shocking, and the sound of rushing and killing and the sound of short soldiers are endless.

Under the fierce attack of the past few days and nights, the generals and soldiers defending the city were exhausted, the whites of their eyes were full of red silk, and sleepiness and exhaustion crawled all over their faces.

But it still can't hide the solemnity and perseverance between their eyebrows.

At this time, He Qizheng was dressed in silver-white armor, which was stained with dark red blood stains, and his eyes were red as he looked at the northern army that had just retreated.

After the baptism of the battlefield, his calm eyes became sharper and sharper.

Qin Feng, who led people to change shifts, came up, saw He Qizheng staring into the distance, and slowly stepped forward and patted his arm, "It's hard work, go down and rest for a while." ”
