Chapter 409: Self-Inflicted Consequences

Due to the fact that the Liang army was besieged for many days, the previous battle situation of the allied forces was not sent in.

However, as soon as Shucheng Yan's army withdrew, King Liang's side also quickly received the news.

After learning about the current general battle situation outside, King Liang couldn't help but smile and said: "Okay, King Qin is really a person worthy of cooperation, now that the victory or defeat has been decided, Yanguo, it won't last long." ”

"But the king, about the retreat of the Huan army," someone couldn't help but say.

"Humph!" King Liang sneered, and said indifferently: "It's better to withdraw!" When the time comes, there will be one less person to divide the land, what is the difference between having him and not having him Huanwang! I don't need these supplies! ”

You must know that war is a spoil, according to King Liang's approach, every time the Liang army attacks a city, it has to be looted, where is it to rebel, it is more like an alien invasion.

Especially the slaughter of Shucheng, even if the history books record this incident, the people of the world accuse, and it is also burdened by the monarch of King Liang.

At this time, the strategist Cai Yan said: "At present, the battle situation is clear, and the next move of our army, the king can make two considerations, on the one hand, it is the same as the spirit army, continue to go deeper, and the soldiers of the second army of Liangling are in Yandu, and on the other hand, it is to respond to Qin Xuan." ”

"En" Hearing this, King Liang thought about it first, and then said: "Rao attack the rear of Yue Zheng, cooperate with Qin Xuan, and destroy Yue Zheng first, and then don't go to Yandu." ”

Saying that, he said: "He Lingwang could have approached the capital a long time ago and relieved me of the siege of Shucheng, but he deliberately moved, in order to preserve his strength, this time, let him face Zhang Xi alone, and he must be forced to fight a tough battle." ”

The Zhang Xi he was talking about was the chief general of the Yan army who besieged Shucheng before, with 180,000 troops in his hands, and at this time, he had rushed back to Yandu to support.

As for the spirit army, it only experienced the battle of Bishui Pass and the relatively easy siege later, so there are almost 160,000 troops.

The Spirit King wanted to lose only 40,000 troops and divide the Yandi, no matter how good the abacus was, it was obviously impossible.

King Liang's decision did not have any problem with the overall battle situation, and now that Yue Zheng was facing Qin Xuan's army, the decisive battle had been lost, and if the Liang army attacked again, he would be a dead end.

As soon as Yue Zheng is destroyed, there will be only Zhang Xi left in the Yan army, and at that time, the armies of the four countries will all come to Yandu.

After King Liang made up his mind, he also said that he would do it, after breaking through the Bishui Pass, he marched from the upper right, so now he needs to go south to join Xiao Yuan.

However, as soon as more than 90,000 Liang troops came out of Shucheng and passed through the next city, the officials in the city, when they heard about the massacre in Shucheng, they were so frightened that they took their families early and fled for their lives.

At the same time, the defense line near Yandu, the Flower Pavilion.

King Yan is personally going out of the city and inviting the Spirit King for a while.

Behind him was Zhang Xi's army of 180,000, and behind King Ling, there were 160,000 troops of Ling.

The fighting did not break out directly.

Now that the spirit army is about to march to the capital, before the war, King Yan came to him and said, it is really reasonable.

After all, the two have dealt with quite a few times before.

At this time, in the pavilion, the two sat opposite each other, and each had a case in front of them.

King Yan was dressed in the clothes of the Son of Heaven, but there was no trace of the emperor's appearance, and now, he said with a shy face:

"Brother Lingwang, the relationship between you and me has always been good, why is this today."

He asked for a meeting with himself, and the Spirit King knew what he would say with his eyes closed, and after hearing this, he also shook his head slightly, and sighed lightly:

"It's not that I want to attack the flames, but the edict of the Son of Heaven, proclaiming to the world, as a prince of China, I have to obey."

This is too high-sounding, but it is just a name to extinguish inflammation, and it is also the so-called famous teacher.

After hearing this, King Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Brother Lingwang, if the Lingjun is willing to retreat, with the relationship between you and me, whatever conditions are needed, you can speak." ”

"I'm afraid this won't work, the covenant is in my body, if I withdraw from the army, it will be a ruin of the alliance, and this king can't afford to bear this charge." The Spirit King is not the King of Huan, extinguishing the flame is the current national policy and grand strategy of the Spirit Kingdom.

"Then, the reason why the coalition army is like this is nothing more than trying to force me to step down from the throne, it's a big deal, I took off this imperial uniform." The Flame King continued to whirlwind.

King Ling glanced at the clothes on his body, sneered in his heart, but said on his face: "Brother Yanwang, the emperor, not anyone who wants to be the one who can be, you have usurped the throne, and now you say that you will abdicate the throne, this matter, I am afraid that I alone can decide, and I still need the nod of King Qin, after all, he holds the edict of the Son of Heaven, and also leads the general of the empire, commanding the king of the world, and is the initiator of the alliance, you have to find him." ”

"But this, but I don't know King Qin at all" King Yan's face was full of urgency.

"You can try." The Spirit King said with a smile, in fact, who thought that Xiao Yuan would agree, but he was just too lazy to pay attention to King Yan and kicked him to Xiao Yuan.

"Then I will send an envoy to meet the King of Qin, and ask Brother Lingwang not to launch an offensive against Yandu."

In this tone, there is already a tendency to surrender.

When the Spirit King heard this, he immediately nodded: "Of course, with the relationship between you and me, as long as the King of Qin nods, the Spirit Army will withdraw immediately." ”

"Okay, good" King Yan was still naΓ―ve with the last glimmer of hope.

After meeting with the Spirit King, he returned to the capital, and in the palace study, he couldn't help but scream sadly: "I really should have listened to Xie Liang's words."

But now I regret it, what's the use, the loyal minister Xie Liang, who accused him in public at the beginning, caused him to be angry, and he was already on death row, and the torture was not good.

Yan Guo came to this point, it was completely caused by him, and in the end, he had no choice but to send an envoy to Qin Xuan's side, ready to lobby one or two.

After receiving the order, he took the envoy's guard of honor and went through several days, first arrived in Xinxiang, met with Yue Zheng, and then went to the camp of Qin Xuan.

Xiao Yuan was not surprised at all when he learned of the arrival of the Yan Envoy, but after thinking about it, he did not receive him, but pushed him to King Xuan on the grounds that he was busy with military affairs and had no time to separate.

Before, the Xuan envoy was killed by Yan Guo, and Xiao Yuan was undoubtedly pushing the boat down the river by doing so.

After the Yan envoy learned about it, he didn't feel anything wrong, and when he met King Xuan, he also bowed down and gave a deep salute:

"The foreign envoy has seen His Royal Highness King Xuan."

King Xuan sat directly above him, stared at him coldly, and did not make any gestures, but shouted directly:

"Guard!"

"In!" The two guards immediately stepped in.

"Drag it down, cut it! Hang his head on a tree to pay tribute to Lord Gong Xing! ”

"No!"

In a word, it directly scared the Yan Envoy to the spine, but before he could speak, the guards were already dragging him out one from the left to the right.

The screams started, and the flame envoy soul was almost frightened, and he couldn't help but scream bitterly:

"I am a messenger, His Royal Highness King Xuan cannot kill me! You can't kill me."

But no one paid any attention to him anymore.

was prepared with a set of rhetoric, but who would have thought that he would be beheaded without saying a word.

This is a self-inflicted actuality.
