Chapter 194: Siege of Xiangyang

On the same day, Jiang Mei, who was in Xinye, also received the news of Yicheng's victory, and when she heard that Xiao Moheng demoted Liu Ji to a concubine, she didn't know that this was Xiao Moheng's means, she stood in front of the window and looked at the direction of Xiangyang, and forced Beihe back to Xiangyang was the first step, and the second step was to take Xiangyang.

The first step was to catch Beihe off guard and make him defenseless, so these two steps were still fast, so fast that Beihe had not yet come out of the mood of defeat and had no time to make a careful military deployment, he would be trapped in Xiangyang. It's just that now, how can you quietly take down Shinno again?

Only when Beihe cleans up the remnants of the army and has no time to clone, it is good to take advantage of the situation to swallow Xinye. But fortunately, Xinye is a small city, and it shouldn't be difficult to take it. Jiang Mei was so worried in her heart.

At this time, Yue Hua walked in from outside the house and said, "Miss, there are many remnants of soldiers outside the city rushing towards Xinye!" ”

When Jiang Mei heard this, she had a flash of inspiration, "Yes! ”

So he hurriedly gathered his men and prepared to seize Xinye.

When the vitality of the Yan army was greatly injured and he was busy rectifying the soldiers and horses of various departments, Xiao Moheng had already taken all his troops north to Xiangyang. Now, Mu Xiaohe and Gao Chi joined forces and set up camp in the northwest corner of Dahong Mountain, near Guangchang, while Xiao Moheng was stationed in Yicheng with other soldiers and horses.

On the night Xiao Moheng arrived in Yicheng, he immediately summoned Mu Xiaohe, Gao Chi and Mu Bai to discuss the next operational deployment.

"Miss Jiang has already taken Nanyang, and the news has been blocked, Xiangyang has not known the truth, and when Beihe comes to his senses, he will definitely not be able to hide it." Xiao Moheng said with a hint of worry, no matter what. Jiangmei can be said to be a lone army, if once it is known by Beihe and sends people to besiege it, it is difficult to ensure that Nanyang will not fall into the hands of Beihe again.

Mu Bai and Gao Chi both nodded worriedly.

"Yes, so we need to act as soon as possible to take down Guangchang and Xinye in one fell swoop in order to trap Beihe in Xiangyang!" Mu Xiaohe answered.

"What's the plan for the three of you?" Xiao Moheng raised his eyebrows and asked.

Mu Bai pointed to the two small cities on the west side of Xiangyang on the map, and said unhurriedly: "Your Highness, give me 20,000 horses, and I will take Shangyong and Fangling." Attack Xiangyang from the upper reaches of the Han River! ”

"Good!" Xiao Moheng replied briskly.

"In order to keep Nanyang from being isolated, we must isolate Guangchang, cut off the connection between Xiangyang and Guangchang, and quickly capture Guangchang!" Mu Xiaohe pondered. "I will lead the troops to capture Guangchang!"

"Shizi is right. Miss Jiang wants to capture Xinye. We had to help her, and I led a group of soldiers and horses to guard the east side of Xiangyang and keep an eye on the Yan army coming out of Xiangyang. Come out one by one and fight one by one, and cover for Guangchang and Xinye! Gao Chi continued.

"That's very good, then I'll take the Chinese army to fight outside Xiangyang City to distract Beihe's attention!" Xiao Moheng smiled, "Without further ado, we have to catch Beihe off guard again!" ”

"Good!" The three of them said in unison.

Xiao Moheng saw that the arrangements were in place, and his heart was a little relieved, but he thought that he had just experienced a big battle, and he had to attack quickly, and he didn't know if the soldiers could eat it, so he worried: "I just fought the night before, I don't know how the combat effectiveness of the various departments is?" ”

"Your Highness, rest assured, Da Huan has never been able to beat the Yan army into a water dog like now, so the morale of the soldiers is high, and it just so happens that we can take advantage of the situation!" Gao Chi smiled.

"Great!" Xiao Moheng said with confidence, he looked at the three heroes galloping on the battlefield in front of him, even if he was as elegant as Mu Xiaohe, he also exuded a kind of courageous spirit at this moment, this is the military temperament cultivated in the smoke of gunpowder, but how can a hot-blooded man resist the charm of the field?

Xiao Moheng raised his glass to each other and said angrily: "The three meritorious ones are outstanding, needless to say, Mo Heng first salutes each other with wine!" ”

Hearing this, the three of them immediately got up and returned the salute with their wine glasses.

After drinking, Mu Xiaohe smiled lightly: "It is our duty as a citizen to protect Dahuan together, Your Highness is polite!" ”

Mu Xiaohe was a little alienated, and when he heard that Xiao Moheng had dismissed Liu Ji, he suddenly realized that although the two of them worked together to deal with Yan Jun, they were on different standpoints.

This sentence is nothing more than to tell Xiao Moheng that at this moment, he is fighting here, not because of Xiao Moheng, but for the stability of Dahuan.

As smart as Xiao Moheng, how could he not understand the faint detachment in his tone, he smiled elegantly: "The prince of the world is elegant and ambitious, Mo Heng admires!" ”

Gao Chi understood the joints, but pretended not to know, just looked at his coach quietly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, although he and Xiao Moheng did not have much personal relationship, but every time the two met, their eyes would reveal trust and respect, and the two of them knew it.

Only Mu Bai is indifferent, although he knows that Jiang Mei's secret master is Xiao Moheng, but he knows that Mu Xiao and Yun Lingbo's daughter have a marriage contract, General Yun cared for him more than his own son, so if he must make a choice emotionally, he seems to prefer Mu Xiao and more.

But he didn't want to go against Jiang Mei's intentions, so he could only ignore it and ignore the competition between the two at all.

Just as the four of them were silent, Qin Xin walked in from outside the door, "Your Highness, Prince Yunyan asks to see you!" ”

The four of them were stunned when they heard this, after Jiang Mei left, they left Yun Yan in Jingling, so Xiao Moheng had also seen him a few times, but he hadn't seen him in the past two days, and he came to ask for a meeting at this time, which couldn't help but make people feel strange.

When Mu Xiaohe heard this, his face was embarrassed, so he apologized and said: "Your Highness, Yun Yan is a person from my house, and I don't discipline him enough, let him bother him at this time, I must teach him a good lesson when I go back, Your Highness, I think he can do anything, let him go back first!" Mu Xiaohe was quite helpless, and estimated in his heart that Jiang Mei should be very fond of him, so he was so presumptuous in front of Xiao Moheng.

Although Gao Chi was not familiar with Yun Yan, seeing that Jiang Mei liked him so much, he knew that his request to see him at this time had something to do with Jiang Mei. Just as he was about to speak out to persuade him, someone was more anxious than him.

Mu Bai immediately caught Mu Xiaohe's words and said: "The prince is serious, although Yun Gongzi is young, he knows the rules very well, and he is by no means a person who has no words and deeds, he must have something important to do when he asks to see His Highness at this time!" ”

Mu Bai was originally a man of few words, but he was thoughtful in every way for Yun Yan, which really surprised Xiao Moheng and others.

Mu Xiaohe was very happy to see him defend Yun Yan like this. Then he smiled and said: "The general must not protect him, he can have important things, then it is strange, this kid looks elegant and stable on the surface, but in fact, he is a child, and Miss Jiang has also spoiled him!" ”

Mu Xiaohe's words made Xiao Moheng think of the relationship between Yun Yan and Jiang Mei, so he also chuckled, "Quick, go and let him in." Keep him waiting. His little aunt is going to show her face when she comes back! ”

As soon as Xiao Moheng's voice fell, several people couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere eased and relaxed.

At this time, Yun Yan, who was like a beautiful son, strode in. He bowed his hand and said, "Your Highness." Shizi. Two generals! ”

"Yun Gongzi, come and sit down!" Xiao Moheng said with a smile, but what made him hesitate was when Mu Bai saw him come in just now. actually got up to greet him. This made Mu Xiaohe and Gao Chi also surprised.

Since they saw Mu Bai, they all knew that Mu Bai was a cold-faced person, except for being close to Jiang Mei, he almost ignored other people, even Xiao Moheng, he didn't seem to take it to heart, but he was only taking care of Yun Yan, and he had to be surprised.

Mu Bai ignored everyone's slightly surprised faces, in his heart, this Xiao Yunyan was the legacy of his master, how could he not protect him.

"Your Highness, Shizi, Yun Yan has just returned from Xinye!"

"What?" All four were amazed.

Mu Xiaohe always thought that he was in Jingling, but now he came to Yicheng with the army, and Xiao Moheng thought the same, how could he actually come back from Xinye, then it means that he has seen Jiang Mei, and even came with Jiang Mei's news.

"What the hell is going on? Speak clearly! Mu Xiaohe said a little angrily, he had to complain a little about Jiang Mei at the moment, since Yun Yan followed her, it seemed that the young heart in his bones had been released, and he was not gentle and polite at all when he was in Mu Mansion. Now when the two armies are fighting, he is actually running around, and if there is an accident, he must not cause trouble for everyone.

Even Xiao Moheng frowned slightly, Yun Yan had already taken the looks of the two of them in his eyes, knowing that the two of them did not know the importance of their rights.

Then he smiled freely and said: "Your Highness, the prince, don't be angry, let me speak slowly!" ”

Mu Xiaohe glanced at him and turned his head away from him.

Yun Yan first took a sip of water, blinked his clear eyes and said, "Little aunt has already taken Xinye!" ”

"What?"

He once again gave everyone a bombshell news, Xiao Moheng and Mu Xiaohe didn't have time to swallow a sip of tea, and they coughed lightly in their throats for a while.

Even Gao Chi and Mu Bai widened their eyes, looking at Yun Yan in disbelief. This Jiang Mei's movements are too fast! It was already surprising that she was able to skillfully take Nanyang, and now she took Xinye without warning, and the words praise and worship could not describe the mood of the two at all.

"How is that possible? How could she have attacked Shinno so quickly? Isn't she afraid that Beihe Xingshi will come to attack? Mu Xiaohe said worriedly.

Xiao Moheng finally stabilized his mind and ordered: "You talk about it carefully!" ”

"Yes!" Yun Yan then said: "After my aunt took Nanyang, she has been blocking the news to the outside world, and even the letter from Nanyang Daily to Xiangyang was written by Nanyang Guard General Xiahou Qian himself, so Xiangyang has not been suspicious, on the 24th, the little aunt saw that there were many wounded soldiers and disabled generals outside Xinye City who came to Xinye, so the little aunt asked General Shangguan Xian to lead a team of men and horses to pretend to be wounded soldiers that night, and entered Xinye City, and then they occupied the city gate, killed the guards of Xinye, seized the talisman, and controlled the soldiers in the city, which was done quite secretly, Xiangyang is still unknown! ”

"Haha... This Jiang girl is really guts! Xiao Moheng praised, although he was overjoyed on his face, but he was really worried in his heart, he instantly raised his eyebrows and glanced at Gao Chi, who obviously understood what he meant.

Gao Chi then said: "Miss Jiang almost bloodlessly captured Xinye in order not to give Beihe any time to deploy, so we must quickly send troops to Guangchang, otherwise Beihe will quickly send troops to Xinye and Nanyang, and the girl is in danger." ”

"Okay, I'll capture Guangchang early tomorrow morning!" Mu Xiaohe said solemnly, he didn't understand Jiang Mei's situation, only by capturing Guangchang as soon as possible could the east of Xiangyang be connected.

Mu Bai wasn't too worried, because he knew Jiang Mei's details, she could not only outwit Nanyang and Xinye by surprise, but also proudly defend the two cities, because she hadn't fully used her military skills!

Mu Xiaohe suddenly said to Yun Yan: "Then what are you going to do in Xinye?" ”

"I went to Xinye with the people from Xiaoyue Tower last night to deliver medicine!" Yun Yan smiled lightly, not paying attention to his words at all, but the four of them were hung in their hearts.

"She's hurt?"

"She's hurt?"

Xiao Moheng and Mu Xiaohe asked out loud at the same time, which showed the anxiety of the two. Xiao Moheng completely forgot that he shouldn't care too much about Jiang Mei in front of Mu Xiaohe, but that moment just now was the most instinctive reaction in his heart.

Even Gao Chi and Mu Bai were worried about their hearts, she had been seriously injured in the battle of Jingzhou last time, if there was another mistake this time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Yun Yan was stared at by four pairs of eyes, stunned for a moment, and after being stunned for a moment, he understood, and said casually: "You misunderstood, we are sending medicine to those wounded soldiers, the little aunt is very good, she is not at all like a person who is commanding a war, besides, if she is injured, can I still be so relaxed?" After Yun Yan finished speaking, he laughed with a grin.

The four of them breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking about it, they were concerned and messy, so that they didn't have their brains. Therefore, Xiao Moheng and Mu Xiaohe are a little distant.

After a cup of tea, the few people finally discussed the matter of sending troops tomorrow, and then dispersed. When Mu Xiaohe left, he took Yun Yan away, and he decided to teach this child a good lesson in the attitude of an eldest brother, and he couldn't let him be so arrogant and presumptuous outside.

And Mu Bai looked at Yun Yan's back being pulled away, a little distracted, and there was a little imperceptible sadness in his eyes.

"General Mu, it's getting late, let's go and rest early!" Gao Chi saw him standing in front of the door, so he comforted.

"Okay, thank you General Gao, I hope the general can meet Mei'er sooner!" Mu Bai said gently.

Gao Chi smiled lightly, where did he need to command, and said with a smile: "This is natural, please rest assured, general!" ”

"Okay, Na Mu takes the first step!" Mu Bai arched his hand and strode away.

Gao Chi faintly looked at Mu Bai's distant back, under the illumination of the moonlight, he seemed to see the heaviness on Mu Bai's back, Gao Chi sighed slightly, and left from the opposite direction.

After the four of them left, Xiao Moheng didn't have time to rest, and now the military rations in the army were a little tight, so he asked Qin Xin to contact the people of Yiyun Pavilion to discuss the matter of transporting food. Soldiers only have to go to the battlefield, but the commander has to take care of both ends of the front army and the rear camp, and even, to a certain extent, whether there can be a stable supply of food determines the outcome of the war. Xiao Moheng knew this, and Jiang Mei understood this truth even more, so she created Yiyun Pavilion. (To be continued......)
