Chapter 576: The Empty City and the Good Situation
"General, the front is Wuzhou Mansion." Li Yanlong hurried away with a depressed heart, and finally arrived outside the city of Wuzhou Mansion, and the guards around him saw that Li Yanlong was depressed, and said softly with a flattering look.
"I want you to say it." When Li Yanlong heard the guard's voice, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the other party indifferently.
"What about Shen Yanren, did they disappear out of thin air?"
"General, the gate of Wuzhou Mansion is wide open, Shen Yan won't make any more mysteries, right?" A general beside him saw the gate of Wuzhou Mansion open, a flash of surprise and shock flashed in his eyes, and with a look of uncertainty, he said loudly.
"Hurry up and find out." Li Yanlong's face became even more gloomy, he was frightened by Shen Yan's use of an empty city plan, and he was delayed for almost half an hour, if this spread, what face would he have in front of the sect leader, and what qualifications would he have to be the first line under the sect master.
"General, the little one brought the official here." A low-level general walked up to Li Yanlong with several people in official uniforms and said flatteringly.
"Xiaguan has seen General Li." The man in the official uniform saw that the person who came was the first general under the sect leader, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"No need to be polite, tell me what this is all about." Li Yanlong pointed to the wide open city gate and said loudly.
At this time, the sky was still white, but it was not yet time for the city gate to open, besides, he had stood under the city wall for so long, and he had not seen a single White Lotus Sect soldier guarding the city, there must be something in it that he didn't know.
"General Li, here's the thing, when the sky was bright today, a group of soldiers came to the city, led by a soldier who wanted to defend the city to open the city gate, and said the secret signal to open the city gate, the soldier guarding the city said that the time had not come, but the leader scolded the soldiers guarding the city, who knew that the soldiers guarding the city opened the city gate with a hot head." The man in the official uniform showed a helpless look and said slowly.
"Who knows, after the city gate was opened, this army took down all the soldiers defending the city with lightning speed, and then occupied the prefect's yamen, and imprisoned all of us, but what I didn't expect was that almost a quarter of an hour later, all the people who were guarding us were gone, so I dared to try to go out."
"As a result, I walked all the way to the gate of the prefect's yamen, and the officers and soldiers who took the Wuzhou Mansion were all gone, so I was ready to turn around and let the people who were detained inside come out, who knew that as soon as I turned around, I saw the prefect's bloody head hanging in front of the gate of the prefect's yamen, which was called an infiltrating person, and my hairs stood up at that time."
"Don't tell me these trivial things, you go to Wen Xiang to talk about this, I just want to ask you, where are the officers and soldiers here?" Li Yanlong listened to it for a long time and didn't hear Shen Yan's thoughts, a gloomy look appeared in his eyes, he looked coldly at the person in the official uniform, and said without the slightest emotion.
"I really don't know about this, why don't I send someone to inquire?" Seeing Li Yanlong's deep face, a bad feeling appeared in the hearts of the people in official uniforms, and he hurriedly said.
"Since you know how to do it, why don't you go sooner." Li Yanlong's eyes could breathe fire, he looked at the other party coldly, and he couldn't wait to stretch out his right hand and slap the other party fiercely.
"Your Majesty, it's time for a while." Xu Sanyuan tiptoed to the side of the dragon bed and said softly.
"What time is it?" Xia Qi heard Xu Sanyuan's shout, opened his eyes slightly, and a pair of bloodshot eyes were exposed in front of Xu Sanyuan's eyes.
"It's almost a moment." Xu Sanyuan saw that the emperor's eyes were full of bloodshots, and immediately understood that the emperor had barely slept all night, and it was estimated that he lay down and took a nap when it was almost dawn, and sometimes he really couldn't bear to disturb the emperor's sleep.
"Two days have passed, I don't know how Shen Yan's kid is doing now?" Xia Qi sat up slowly, and simply made a few chest expansion movements to dispel the sleepiness, and an inexplicable look appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't help but say.
"Your Majesty, Lord Shen is a blessed person, nothing should happen." Xu Sanyuan didn't know how to pick up the stubble, his eyes rolled slightly, and he said softly.
"Yes, Shen Yan's kid is indeed blessed, in the face of the situation of nine deaths and one life, in addition to the relevant strategies and tactics, blessing is also a very important factor." Xia Qi followed Xu Sanyuan's words and said softly.
"Your Majesty, Gao Yong has sent a secret letter of the highest level." When Xia Qizheng was sighing, the voice of the ringer suddenly sounded in the dormitory.
"What's the news from Gao Yong?" Hearing the words of the ringman, a look of expectation flashed in Xia Qi's eyes, how many years, the ringman almost did not appear in front of him, and he has always been invisible, but yesterday morning, for a highest-level secret letter from Gao Yong, the ringman appeared in front of his eyes again, however, today the ringer brought Gao Yong's highest-level secret letter, could it be that Shen Yan had any accidents, or that Shen Yan brought me some surprises.
"Bring it in." Thinking of this, Xia Qi said a little impatiently.
"Good, good, good." Xia Qi quickly tore open Gao Yong's secret letter, and browsed through it at a glance, and then his eyes widened, his face was full of surprise and incredulity, and finally he said three good words in a row.
"Shen Yan deserves to be my Maxima, no, he is the minister of the humerus."
"Your Majesty, what great achievements has Lord Shen made?" Hearing Xia Qi's words, both Xu Sanyuan and Jiewen were full of curiosity.
"Shen Yan's kid launched an attack on the White Lotus Sect's granary at the time of last night, after some layout and fighting, although the Great Xia Royal Army suffered losses, it successfully burned down the thirty-six granaries of the White Lotus Sect, and killed nearly two thousand White Lotus Sect bandits on the spot, and other White Lotus Sect bandits became Shen Yan's prisoners, but considering the needs of the strategic level, Shen Yan still released these bandits like a sheep's intestine path." Xia Qi's eyes carried a strong excitement, sweeping away the previous tiredness.
"Your Majesty, the minions are stupid, since Lord Shen has captured these surrendered soldiers, why don't you kill them, but choose to release them?" A look of doubt appeared in the eyes of the ringman, and he asked softly.
"Ring Weng, it's not difficult to kill these surrendered soldiers, but the difficulty is that after Shen Yan's reputation for loving killing and surrendering spreads, he will encounter the fiercest resistance when he attacks the White Lotus Sect again, because these White Lotus Sect soldiers know that there is only one way to die if they surrender, and they may have a chance to fight to the end." A faint smile appeared in Xia Qi's eyes, and he immediately saw through Shen Yan's intention to release the captive.
"There is another layer of intention to release these White Lotus Sect troops, the next time they fight with Shen Yan again, these White Lotus Sect soldiers will not fight Shen Yan wholeheartedly, anyway, if they surrender to Shen Yan, there will be nothing at all, these soldiers will also have partners around them, and it will also affect the partners around them, such a force should not be underestimated."
"Of course, the high-level of the White Lotus Sect can separate these surrendered troops, but the high-level of the White Lotus Sect thinks that these people can still be used, and second, they can't be killed, once these surrendered troops are killed, the military spirit of the White Lotus Sect will be dispersed."
"Hearing the emperor say this, the slave suddenly opened, I really didn't expect Shen Yan to think so far-reaching at such a young age, even farther than the ordinary ministers and generals think, the slave congratulates the emperor on having a good courtier." When the ringer heard Xia Qi's explanation, a flash of realization appeared in his eyes, and then a congratulatory look appeared on his face, and he congratulated the emperor.
"Your Majesty, now that Lord Shen has burned the grain and grass of the White Lotus Sect, a food crisis will break out in the White Lotus Sect, and the morale and morale of the army will definitely be severely hit." Xu Sanyuan's eyes flashed with joy, and Shen Yan created a good situation.
