Chapter 1138: Embattled

Nanzhao is not big, the people who were made by Huo Jiuling before were not happy, and they finally settled down again, and before they recovered much, they were besieged by the four countries, and they were powerless to resist at all, even if they had the support of the Celestial Empire's troops, it was difficult to support, and they had lost three cities in the border pass, and now they have retreated to the pass.

At this time, more than half of the reinforcements of Nanzhao and the Celestial Empire were killed or wounded, and if the reinforcements could not arrive, I was afraid that the Nanzhao Kingdom would be destroyed.

After half a year of self-cultivation, although Nanzhao has recovered some life, he is powerless to deal with the strong soldiers of the country, if it is not for Xue Liang's timely support, I am afraid that the situation at this time will be even worse.

"General Xue, now the combined strength of our two sides is only 20,000, how long will it take for your country's reinforcements to arrive?"

Xue Liang took a sip of water, looked at the enemy camp, shook his head and said: "I don't know, I'm just afraid that it will take at least half a month, fortunately, we don't have to worry about the grain and grass, since the grain and grass have already come, the reinforcements will not be far away." ”

The two of them will have such a conversation at least ten or eight times a day, mainly because there are too many people in the enemy army, even if they use the tactics of crowds, they will consume the people on this side to death, and they are not able to resist tactics at all.

"Half a Month ......"

General Meng of Nanzhao muttered: "In half a month, the army of my Nanzhao Kingdom is only afraid that the whole army will be wiped out." ”

Xue Liang was also silent for a while, and now that this person can hold on for ten days, it can be regarded as optimistic. But whether it is the transfer of troops or the direct recruitment of troops in various places, half a month is the minimum, plus the itinerary on the road, it will take at least a month.

And that's not even counting the other accidents, so they had to hold out for a month, which was the minimum, otherwise even if reinforcements came, they would be left with corpses all over the ground.

General Meng naturally knew that the two of them had discussed these words many times, so he didn't plan to say more this time.

"Report!"

From a distance above the wall, they saw a man riding a horse, holding chicken feathers in his hand, and his face was uncontrollable joy.

Xue Liang and General Meng glanced at each other almost at the same time, and the joy in their eyes was beyond words.

"Looks like there's good news."

"I think that's it."

Xue Liang and the others got the good news, the army has set off from the Celestial Empire, and it only takes ten days at most to reach Shuzhou, and it only takes 12 days to reach the Nanzhao battlefield, and this news is still three days ago, and at most nine days, reinforcements can arrive.

That is to say, if they can hold this city for nine days, Nanzhao can keep it, and under the unity of the city, let alone nine days, it doesn't hurt to come for half a month.

Suddenly, the morale of the Nanzhao army was high, and they withstood wave after wave of attacks, and sure enough, hope was the best fuel.

Regarding the information that Nanzhao has reinforcements again, the Four-Nation Alliance Army also got it, but they were not worried at all.

In addition, they also got another piece of information, which was information about Yin Qingqi.

The leader of the team is Yin Qingqi, and she should have just given birth, and when she was weak, she was almost useless on the battlefield, at most she could only help the marching formation.

As far as the four-nation alliance is concerned, Yin Qingqi cannot go into battle, and it gives them many possibilities.

The commander of an army can't go into battle to confront the enemy, how much impact will it have on the soldiers below, this is a taboo for the army, they can already foresee their victory, and when the time comes, they will only use Yin Qingqi alive, and use her in exchange for the Celestial Empire's compromise and land reparation, maybe the Celestial Empire doesn't have to attack, they can divide and eat.

It's not wrong for them to think so, but only if they can catch Yin Qingqi.

The time of the 15th and the four-nation alliance is nothing more than a war, at most it is just a good news and a celebration.

As far as the Celestial Empire is concerned, it is the foundation for laying the foundation for hegemony and preparing to take down a great power.

Yin Qingqi landed from Liaodong County in Daliang, and it took only half a day to capture Liaodong County, and then by the lightning speed, along Liaodong to the east to take Bincheng, the capital of Daliang State, it took a total of fifteen days, and at this time the reinforcements of the Celestial Empire had arrived in Nanzhao and were launching a counterattack.

The Sui State to the west of the Great Liang was also ready to go, and directly issued a war letter to attack the Great Liang, leading the troops was Shen Tianyi, the third prince of the Sui State, and also captured three cities in a very short period of time, and contained the army west of the Great Liang.

The Great Liang Kingdom has 50,000 troops, but it is negligent in training, and it is not the opponent of the elite troops led by Yin Qingqi at all.

However, at this time, Yin Qingqi began to cultivate his body and mind, only besieged without attacking, and besieged for a month, and the Great Liang Junchen finally couldn't sit still, so he could only gather back a large number of troops from the front line to attack Nanzhao to solve the trapped situation in Bincheng.

At this point, the allied forces of the four countries broke up and fled, and the siege of Nanzhao was lifted, and it took less than two months.

"Retreat."

Originally, Bincheng could be taken directly, but Yin Qingqi ordered a return trip.

Qi Feiyan looked at Bincheng, which was so close to him, and asked with some puzzlement: "Why don't you take it down in one fell swoop?" ”

"Taking it down at this time will not benefit my Celestial Empire at all."

Yin Qingqi smiled and said to Qi Feiyan: "Our generals are already too tired, if they attack at this time, even if they can defeat them, they can't stand it, waiting for the hundreds of thousands of troops they withdrew from the front line to rescue, we can't go back, and now, the siege is also surrounded, and the dismount is also given, it's time to go back." ”

Qi Feiyan still didn't understand a little, but he didn't ask again.

He still didn't know much about fighting, but compared to not knowing anything before, he could understand a little bit now that the timing was wrong.

The 100,000 troops of the Celestial Empire took advantage of the victory to pursue the Daliang army in the hinterland, and Yin Qingqi retreated and fought with a small force, causing a lot of damage to the Daliang.

In Chifengling, the Celestial Empire army formed a joint encirclement and used the terrain to annihilate all the armies of Daliang.

The capital of the Great Liang Kingdom was temporarily saved, but the hundreds of thousands of troops sent out were annihilated by all counts, and the entire imperial court was suddenly depressed.

Yin Qingqi's small elite army still has less than 5,000 people left, and the Celestial Empire's 100,000 army still has 80,000 people left, almost unharmed, which can be regarded as a miracle.

And the Celestial Empire still has 80,000 strong divisions, stationed in Chifengling, so far more than three months have passed, and the Sui State has also taken the opportunity to encroach on seven or eight cities in the west of the Great Liang, and Yin Qingqi's army is far opposite, the Great Liang can be regarded as the enemy on the back of the belly, stealing chickens is not a loss of rice.

At this point, this battle can be regarded as a complete victory for the Celestial Empire. Now I am waiting for the big beam and sending an envoy to cut the land and sue for peace.

As for the other countries, they were also more or less threatened, and two months ago, they had already signed their credentials with the Celestial Empire, which could be regarded as submission.

Yin Qingqi occupied Chifeng Ridge, and at this time, the forces of the Celestial Empire did not consume much, they could attack, retreat and defend, and occupied a well-founded position, she was not afraid to be more patient with the Great Liang, just spend some more time, and let them belong to the Celestial Empire all the lands they occupied.
