Chapter 208: The Battle of Ningyang

Ningyang is one of the six counties of Sichuan and Shu, due to geographical reasons, it can be regarded as easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the reason why Lian Xiao chose to confront the Qin army here has a certain reason.

Now he has almost 30,000 troops in his hands.

Hearing that Xiao Yuan personally led the army to attack, Lian Xiao was not afraid, but someone was afraid, that is, the Ningyang County Guard.

If Lian Xiao hadn't come here with his troops, I'm afraid he would have surrendered a long time ago!

At this time, his face was even more worried, and he said urgently: "This and this, the Qin army is coming, how can it be good, general." ”

"What are you panicking about!?" Lian Xiao glared at him fiercely and said, "The Qin army is coming to attack, and the battle is coming!" With the danger of Ningyang and the grain and grass in the county, we are enough to resist the Qin army! ”

His words were very direct, but when the Ningyang County Shou heard this, he couldn't help but grin secretly, and still said worriedly: "But the Qin army is brave and good at fighting, and now all the counties in Shuzhong have fallen into the hands of Xiao Yuan, and even the lord has surrendered, what is the point of me waiting to resist in Ningyang......

"Shut up!" Lian Xiao glared again: "You only need to be responsible for the supply of grain and grass, you don't have to worry about the war!" ”

He was a general in Shu, and under the scolding, the Ningyang County Guard couldn't help but shrink his neck, and he didn't dare to say anything more.

A few days later, Xiao Yuan arrived with his army, and then his troops descended on the city.

Outside the city pass, the 30,000 Qin troops lined up into several phalanxes, waving flags, black armor and red tassels, overwhelming, and the military appearance was extremely vigorous.

Looking at the Qin army camp full of murderous atmosphere, the Ningyang County Guard at the head of the city didn't mention how nervous he was, and he couldn't help but secretly look at Lian Xiao's face.

The latter's face was calm, without the slightest fear, and immediately gave the order, ready to switch to meet the enemy.

Under his military order, the tall city gate slowly opened, and then, Lian Xiao personally ran out with a large number of soldiers, and then rode alone, came to the front of the two armies, and began to raise guns and call for formation.

He is the main general, but every time he fights, he will inevitably go out to provoke and strengthen his prestige, which can also show the high level of his martial arts.

"Qin Jun, listen! With me even howling, you don't want to enter Ningyang! ”

"Who dares to come out and fight me!"

He tugged on the reins slightly, held a silver gun, and kept shouting, but at this moment, Xiao Yuan walked out unhurriedly with an old woman.

Seeing this scene, Lian Xiao's screams stopped abruptly, as if he couldn't believe it, and his eyes widened suddenly.

After Xiao Yuan stood still, he shouted: "Lian Xiao! Look who this is! ”

"Xiao'er......" the old woman also began to shout.

"Mother!!" Lian Xiao was shocked, first screamed, and then there was a raging rage!

His eyes were about to split, the silver gun in his hand pointed at Xiao Yuan, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Xiao Yuan! Traitor! What kind of hero is such a villain! ”

He couldn't help tugging on the reins slightly, and the war horse was stepping back and forth in place, with an expression on his face, more like he was going to eat Xiao Yuan alive, but his mother was in the other party's hands, and he dared to act rashly.

"Xiao thief! Shameless! Dare to duel me! ”

He continued to grit his teeth and drink, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

He is the master of the people, how can he go to a fierce general with Lian Xiao, in fact, he has no intention of threatening his mother at all, but his laughter, in Lian Xiao's eyes, undoubtedly made the latter more misunderstood.

"Thieves are abominable!!" The latter continued to glare and grit his teeth.

Xiao Yuan didn't explain, but retracted his gaze, looked at Lian Mu, and said with a slight smile: "I haven't been able to entertain thoughtful people these days, and I have wronged the old lady, so I won't send it in the future, please." ”

"Thank you." Lian Mu said sincerely, nodded, and walked towards Lian Xiao with a cane.

When the latter saw this, he immediately became nervous, and his eyes widened.

It wasn't until Lian Mu walked to the center of the two armies that he dared to step forward in a hurry, then turned over and dismounted, and knelt directly on the ground: "Mother! Children are not filial! ”

Don't look at what Lian Xiao battlefield is fierce, but he is extremely filial.

Seeing this, Lian Mu helped him up: "Get up quickly." ”

"Mother......" Lian Xiao shouted again, and said fearfully: "Are you okay?" Xiao thief, he ......"

"Huh? Mother is fine, you misunderstood Lord Qin. Lian Mu waved her hand slightly.

Hearing this, Lian Xiao was stunned at first, but now that the enemy is present, after receiving his mother, how dare he stay here, and can't help but say: "Mother, let's go back to the city first." ”

As he spoke, he hurriedly helped his old mother back to the city.

The city gate was closed again, and seeing this, Xiao Yuan also waved his hand: "Let's collect the troops first." ”

The Qin army retreated, in the city.

Lian Xiao still has palpitations, his mother was by Xiao Yuan's side before, he thought it was over, but now he is finally in danger and returns safely, his mood can be imagined.

In the hall, all the generals also gathered, and they all saluted the old lady, and Lian Xiao also began to ask about everything in between.

"It's Huang Songyuan who wants to kill me, but Lord Qin just saved me......"

Then, Lian Mu told the story one by one.

After hearing this, everyone was a little embarrassed, and Lian Xiao was even more dumbfounded, in his eyes, Xiao Yuan was a thief, how could he save his mother? And personally escorted his mother over?

He was stunned and said, "Mother, this, this ......"

"Hey." Lian Mu sighed lightly, and said quietly: "I have been in contact with the Lord of Qin for my mother before, don't say anything else, there is a sentence, he is very right, with the mediocrity of the Lord of Shu, even if Qin does not cut down Shu, Shu will also die, and when the time comes, it will be captured by other countries, maybe it will be a bloody killing." ”

What she said was the truth, this old woman was very knowledgeable, everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and Lian Xiao said, "But ......"

"Instead of perishing, it is better to let the Ming Lord govern, in this way, isn't it better for the people of Shudi?" Even the mother said.

Knowing what she meant, Lian Xiao was embarrassed: "But mother, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been in a dilemma, and my son is a general of the Shu army......

It's just that before he finished his words, Lian Mu raised her hand slightly: "This has nothing to do with loyalty and filial piety, son, haven't you always thought that there is no master, now what?" ”

"Mother mean, let me surrender Xiao Yuan?" Lian Xiao asked with a frown.

"Hey, come down, in this way, the war in Shuzhong is calm, and it is also what the people want to see the most, the ambition and actions of the Qin lord, there is no doubt that they are much higher than Huang Songyuan, which is a good thing for Shu." Even the mother's way.

"But!" Lian Xiao still couldn't pull his face.

At this time, the other generals couldn't help it.

Someone said, "General! The old lady is reasonable, now that Yizhou has surrendered, it is meaningless for us to trap Ningyang again, not to mention, the soldiers below don't know why they are fighting. ”

"Yes, general, and Huang Songyuan, but he wants to kill the old lady, he has regarded the general as a rebel, but he surrendered, what is this!"
