In this year, the Wenhe era ended, Wuchang was at the beginning of the first year, and the Qin Emperor died only two months ago, but there was great turmoil at home and abroad in Great Qin. The local army has a tendency to focus on self-respecting troops, and it is eyeing the outer south and Chu. The Northern Qi Dynasty was even more Chen Bing Yancheng, waiting for an opportunity to launch an offensive.

At the head of Yancheng City, Gao Ling is leading people to inspect the city defense.

"It's been two months, and the army of Northern Qi still hasn't moved?"

"General Yu, according to the report, the Northern Qi troops have been encamped in Qiuye Mountain, and they have been practicing all day but there is no sign of attack!"

Xia Ba, who was accompanying him, replied.

"How many?"

"Investigate clearly, between the Autumn Leaf Mountain and the canyon of an unnamed mountain, because every late autumn, the fallen leaves on the Autumn Leaves Mountain are called the Fallen Leaves Valley at the border of this canyon, and the Qi army is stationed in the Fallen Leaves Valley, arranged in a line, stretching for at least fifty miles, so it is very good to count, full of 200,000!"

"Huh?"

Gao Ling glanced at Xia Ba suspiciously.

Xia Ba comprehended, and his huge head shook like a rattle.

"Why not?" Koling Road

"The general's meaning, the last general understands, but according to the scouts, the fallen leaves in the Fallen Leaf Valley have already been cleaned, and the Fallen Leaf Valley is in an east-west direction, and the cold air from the north does not affect the valley, so the temperature in the valley remains unchanged in all seasons, and the Mohe River flowing through it has never frozen in the valley, and the mountains and red leaves outside the valley are full of life, I think this is the reason why they are stationed in the Fallen Leaf Valley! The most important thing is that every grass and tree that has been derived from the Fallen Leaf Valley for nearly ten miles has been cleared by them and has become a pioneering area, and sentinels have been sent to patrol day and night. Not to mention, the people of the brigade passed"

Gao Ling touched his already unshaven chin with his hand, thoughtfully.

"I have heard that the commander of the Qi army, Bei Kuo, is a brave and unscrupulous stunned young man, it seems that this is not the case, and he is surrounded but not fought, what are you waiting for? If they continue to consume like this, they are destined to pay the price?! ”

"How long will it take for our reinforcements to arrive!"

Gao Ling rubbed his head in distress and sighed.

"The reinforcements from Los Angeles are still three days away, and the army in Yancheng can reach 50,000 by then!"

Gao Ling raised his head and looked in the direction of Akiba Mountain, his heart was faintly uneasy, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

At the foot of the Autumn Leaves Mountain, in the Fallen Leaves Valley, the Qi army is lined up, and the huge and magnificent marching tent is inside.

"We have an army of 200,000, but there are only 30,000 Qin troops in Yancheng, and we will be wiped out with a wave of our hands, it has been two months, and we are waiting here every day, and the grain and grass are almost exhausted! Three Princes! Let's fight! ”

Sitting on the top seat, a big man stood up and shouted angrily slapping the table. On the bare shoulder, a hideous scar is clearly visible.

On the lower left side of the seat, sat a young man dressed in a luxurious yellow dress with a bookish face, and his pale face reflected that this young man should be a weak and sick man. This person is the third prince of Qi State, Jing Hui.

"Beishuai, don't be anxious, although there are few soldiers in Yancheng, the city wall is high and thick, easy to defend and difficult to attack; And there was Gao Ling, the general of the Qin State, personally stationed there. If we attack strongly at this moment, even if we capture it, our army will inevitably suffer serious damage. So we have to force them out and annihilate them in one fell swoop!. ”

The same pale hand covered his mouth and coughed lightly.

"How forced, they cowered in that turtle's shell and didn't show their heads! We have to huddle in this broken canyon all the time, and the most important thing is that we only have enough food for five days, and some soldiers are already starting to worry and complain! ”

Bei Kuo, who had always been violent, seemed to be in awe of the young third prince and asked.

"Hehe, Bei Shuai rest assured, I will provide food for our army in the near future, and that is the day when Gaoling goes out of the city to fight with our army, as for what to do with those who disturb the morale of the army, I don't need to remind Bei Shuai what to do, right?"

In the end, Jinghui was already lying on the chair and leaning back, closing his eyes.

"Alright! ~”

Bei Kuo seemed to believe in the third prince very much, didn't ask anything, and didn't dare to slack off, and slowly walked out of the camp.

The capital of the Qin State, in the prison cell of the Imperial Forest Army in the capital.

Gao Jixing stood at the window of the cell, looking at the gray sky through the iron bar, and always felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Cell boss!"

Gao Jixing turned around and shouted outside.

"It's coming, it's coming, what does the young master command!"

The most difficult official in the entire Gangneung Mansion is probably the cell head in the Imperial Forest Army prison, and the criminals who come in are all either rich or noble, not to mention whether the person who is imprisoned is guilty or not, but it is said that the government is changing rapidly, and the front foot may still be a prisoner, and the back foot will enter the dignitary, so the prisoners who are imprisoned in not only can't be beaten and scolded, but also have to be careful to serve, otherwise the cell head today will turn around tomorrow.

This didn't just offend Han Li of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now he doesn't dare to provoke this gentleman who is "famous in Jiangling".

When the cell boss heard Gao Jixing's call, he crawled over with a roll, causing a burst of dust in the cell, and several jailers who were drinking with the cell head held back their laughter until their faces turned red.

"In the past few days, what has happened in Gangneung Mansion?" Gao Jixing asked.

"Young Master, the whole city is in mourning, and there is no movement!"

Gao Jixing nodded and waved his hand to signal that the cell boss could go.

As soon as the cell boss turned around, Gao Jixing suddenly thought of something: "Is there a war in the border army?" ”

"Yes, the evil Northern Qi Beikuo led 200,000 troops, and they have already forced into my Great Qin Yancheng, and General Gao has personally rushed to the battlefield! However, I heard from a few brothers who had retired from the army that there were not many soldiers stationed in Yancheng, and I am afraid that there would be fewer bad luck in Daqin this time. ”

The cell leader said in frustration, as if he suddenly thought of the identity in the cell, and then thought that this was not a curse to death, and then there was a burst of dust.

Falling in the haystack, the uneasiness in his heart became more and more aggravated, in the eyes of outsiders and even his mother, he never asked his father about his life and death in the frontier, but he was protected by the name of the general to do evil in Jiangling City, but Zhang Heng secretly sent every letter from the frontier was repeatedly kneaded by him in folds, more than fifty letters, all recorded his father's victory, but this time, for some reason, Gao Jixing always felt that something was wrong.

At night, the Prime Minister's Mansion is in a side hall.

Yan Mou had a stove in front of him, and in his hand he held a letter from the far northern frontier of the desert.

There is only one sentence in the letter: "Can there be a bright moon in Gangneung tonight?" ”

Yan Mou lay flat in the recliner, looking at the gray sky, just like Gaoling riding out of Jiangling that day, tightening the white hemp belt around his waist, and a line of turbid tears flowed down his cheeks.

That year, Yan Mou high school champion, specially approved to enter the palace face saint, before he walked to the front of the Wenwu Palace, he saw two teenagers lying on the top of the Wenwu Hall from a distance, by the moonlight, he only saw one person wearing brocade clothes, one person wearing armor, the two teenagers saw Yan Mou on the royal road, and quickly waved Yan Mou to go up, after all, in the palace, Yan Mou naturally did not dare, until the brocade boy shouted: I order you to come up! Yan Mou only then knew who the young man was, and he was already shouting when he climbed up with difficulty, but the two teenagers did not laugh at him, and the young man said a word to him.

"If you read a lot of sages, you should also look at the bright moon in the sky."

That night, there were no monarchs and ministers, and the three high-spirited Great Qin humerus lay in the Wenwu Hall and watched the moon all night.

Yan Mou just stared silently at the box in his hand, and after a while, he stood up and put the secret box into a hidden position on the bookshelf.

In the darkness, a vague gaze flashed.

Yancheng, inside the General's Palace.

Reinforcements from Los Angeles have arrived, and the strength of Yancheng has increased greatly, but the ensuing food shortage has also plagued Gaoling.

"General, the reinforcements are increasing, and the grain and grass in Yancheng are becoming more and more scarce, only enough for three days." Zhang Heng stood behind Gao Ling and said.

"It's okay, a letter from the court. There are still three days to go. Gao Ling continued to study the map on his desk.

Zhang Heng's eyes swayed from side to side, he wanted to speak and stopped, and finally just sighed.

Gao Ling turned around and said, "If you have something to say, say it!" ”

Zhang Heng hugged his fists and said: "General, the grain and grass in the rear are handled by Yan Mou!" The last general is worried about ......"

Gao Ling didn't say a word, his hand touched the point of Jiangling in the map, and muttered: "Great Qin! ”

Deciduous Valley, the camp of the Qi army, Bei Kuo walked around the camp in a hurry.

"Our food and grass are only enough to support three days, what are the three princes waiting for?"

"The third prince lay quietly on the chaise longue, covered with a cloak, and closed his eyes slightly."

"Report! A masked man in black outside, please meet the three princes! ”

Hmm~, the third prince lifted his cloak, opened his eyes and got up, his face was slightly pale, and there was some excitement at this time.

"Let him in!"

The man in black entered the camp tent, and in his hand was the black box beside Yan Mou that day.

"Jinghui, remember your promise!"

The man in black waved his hand, and the black box was thrown into the arms of the third prince.

"Presumptuous!" Bei Kuo saw the man in black move, and immediately said angrily.

"It doesn't matter." Jing Hui stretched out his hand to stop Bei Kuo.

"I swear to you as the prince of Great Qi, after the matter is completed, that thing will enter your hands!"

The man in black snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Bei Bracket's big axe picked it up and wanted to chase it out.

"Come back!"

Bei Kuo said: "No matter what military situation it is, it's best to let him shut up completely!"

Jing Hui shook his head helplessly: "General Bei, are you famous on the martial arts list?" ”

Bei Kuo scratched his head: "Naturally, it has never been on the list." ”

"He's on the list."

A bland sentence, with a loud bang in the military tent, was the sound of an axe hitting the ground.

Three days later, a sudden cold snap swept across Mobei, the cold wind howled, enveloping the heavy snow falling from the sky, raging on the Gobi Desert.

Yancheng, inside the city tower.

Three days have passed, although Gao Ling ordered the three armies to go up to the general and down to the horsemen to cut down on food and clothing, but they can't stand the large number of people and horses, and there is already little grain and grass left in Yancheng, and the grain and grass for logistics support have not responded for a long time!

"Report! Here comes the man who transports grain and grass! ”

Gao Ling hurriedly walked out of the general's mansion and prepared to greet him.

"General, General! Grain and grass have been robbed! Grain and grass have been robbed! ”

Outside the hall, a soldier covered in bloody clothes and ragged clothes ran in in embarrassment, knelt down in front of Gao Ling, and cried.

"Speak slowly! What the hell is going on. ”

Gao Ling grabbed the soldier's hand and said with concern

"We secretly transported grain and grass according to the route, and we were almost in the territory of Yancheng, but we encountered a group of robbers in Mangshan! Without saying anything, they came up and killed our people, and all the grain and grass were robbed! ”

"Dare to plunder the army's grain and grass without saying a word! By no means bandits. Zhang Heng said.

"Report !! The Qi army has already marched towards me in a closed circle, and it is now ten miles away from Yancheng! ”

A military situation resounded in the sky above the General's Mansion
