Chapter 104 Attempted Invitation

Yun Yichen and they fought bravely on the battlefield, and Brother Yu in the camp has been quietly staying in the barracks to recuperate from his injuries, and sincerely prayed for his father and Uncle Yang and many of his own senior brothers, hoping that they can return to their side as soon as possible.

A few days later, the news finally came that the army had won a great victory!

It is said that the army led by Yun Yichen drove the enemy army directly to the mouth of the Minhe River, hid in the city at the mouth of the Minhe River, and never dared to come out again!

The army led by Yun Yichen called the city gate outside the city gate for several days to let the enemy come out to fight, but the enemy did not even dare to open the city gate, and now Yun Yichen and the army are stationed under the city at the mouth of the Min River, and the enemy army is in a stalemate.

Although Wu Liang told how the army fought the enemy army and fled, what Brother Yu was most concerned about at the moment was not how many enemy soldiers they killed and how much loot they recaptured, what she wanted to know most at the moment was whether her father, Uncle Yang and many senior brothers could be safe?

As for winning or not, she doesn't think she cares much!

But Wu Liang didn't know how many people his army had injured, only that the wounded were about to be sent back, and Prince Rui was preparing to send another army to the mouth of the Min River to support Yun Yichen, who had already set up camp outside the mouth of the Min River at the moment, preparing to fight to the death with the enemy army of the Yan Clan outside the city gate.

Just because during this period of time, the city was either lost or sniped for reinforcements, so this battle was the first real victory for the soldiers of Lan Zhaoguo, and because of this, the morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted, so that the soldiers who went out to drive the enemy directly to the Minhe estuary, which was occupied not long ago, and Yun Yichen had to make a temporary decision to camp outside the city gate of the Minhe estuary, and make a posture to immediately recapture the Minhe estuary.

Regardless of whether this expedition can finally recapture the Minhe estuary in one fell swoop, it is also an unexpected gain that they did not expect to besiege the Minhe estuary at this moment, so Yun Yichen decided to camp directly outside the city gate of the Minhe estuary, not giving the enemy any chance to breathe!

Even if the mouth of the Min River cannot be recovered in the near future, as long as the enemy army is no longer ready to move, it is a victory to attack the hinterland of Lan Zhaoguo again!

For Yun Pengfei, the prince of Rui, who did not dare to think that he had just arrived in the Xizhi camp and had beaten away the besieging enemy, this was a great victory. Because he knew that in addition to himself, the few people that the emperor cared about the most had not made an inch of merit in this battle, and the emperor could not see the people who really made meritorious contributions, so it was better to take all the credit to himself, and when the emperor rewarded him with good things to share, it would not be in vain for his hard work!

When he arrived at Xu Yingcheng, although he didn't dare to detain him directly, he had already received a secret report from his son, telling his father the details of the war.

Xu Yingcheng was angry that Prince Rui did not use his son and grandson when he arrived at the frontier, and he was angry that Yun Yichen, the second prince who had never been in the climate, would be so brave and decisive, and as soon as he arrived at the Xizhi camp, he drove away those enemy troops, not to mention, at this moment he actually stationed his troops at the gate of the city occupied by the enemy, listening to his son's tone, he seemed to have decided to fight the enemy to the death at the mouth of the Min River, and he would not give up until he recovered the mouth of the Min River.

Xu Yingcheng also heard that Yun Yichen's partner was Wei Qinian, who had been squeezed by their father and son for many years, and with Wei Qinian's help, Yun Yichen's plan to recover the Minhe estuary should not be blocked!

Because the Minhe estuary is the nest that Wei Ying's father and son have guarded for many years, they are familiar with all the offensive and defensive facilities of the Minhe estuary, so as long as the time is ripe, it will be a matter of time before the Minhe estuary is recovered.

Although Xu Yingcheng was very angry with Yun Yichen's disrespect for his son, he couldn't care about that at the moment, because Yun Yichen's nature was notoriously stubborn in the palace, and it was impossible for him to bow down to anyone, even the emperor dared to contradict him, and it was understandable for him to speak disrespectfully to his son's grandson.

Even if he had a close relationship with Prince Rui, Prince Rui could not control him in some matters, so judging from his son's secret letter, the credit for chasing the enemy army to the mouth of the Min River this time was his. In the future, he will also have the final say in the barracks.

From this point of view, he, his son, and grandson can't offend him for the time being, because if they want to recapture the mouth of the Minhe River and even Xihai City, they may have to rely on him.

Whoever recaptured the two lost cities in the end, as long as they were on the same side as the person who recaptured the city, then all the credit goes to them, so ...... Xu Yingcheng exaggerated Prince Rui after handing over the report to the same emperor, and refuted the rumors that all the credit was taken from him, he said that it was actually the second prince King Huai'an who led the army to drive away the enemy army, not to mention, but also took advantage of the victory to pursue, and chased the enemy army directly to the city defense at the mouth of the Min River and did not dare to come out.

Prince Rui is just sitting in the Xizhi camp, without the slightest strength, and it is King Huai'an who really charges.

The reason why Yun Yichen was launched was because Xu Yingcheng felt that if Prince Rui took all the credit alone, the emperor would reward Prince Rui at that time, and Prince Rui, who originally had a solid family background, would be the icing on the cake in the future, and he would dare to sit on an equal footing with their Xu family in the court.

And the second prince has nothing but an empty title so far, even if he tells the emperor about his merits, the emperor will not give him any reward. In addition, he knows that the second prince has no background or any connections, even if the emperor gives him a little reward, it will be a drop in the bucket, and it will not help at all, and he will not pose any threat to anyone in the court. Therefore, Prince Rui still can't be too proud.

As Xu Yingcheng expected, when the emperor heard that the credit had nothing to do with Prince Rui, he really didn't mention any rewards, but only verbally commended several of them for leading the army and the soldiers, and ordered them to make persistent efforts in order to recapture the Minhe estuary in one go.

Xu Yingcheng was very satisfied with the emperor's decision, and also sent a secret report to his son, asking him not to get into trouble with Yun Yichen, because at this moment their opponent is Prince Rui, who has a fight with them in the court, not the King Huai'an, who has nothing, and in the future, some credit will be pushed to Yun Yichen, no one will get benefits, and no one will get harm, don't push all the credit to Prince Rui, he will be like a tiger, so as not to get the stumbling block that will eventually become their father and son monopolizing the court.

Yun Yichen has no way of knowing these things in the court, but Prince Rui got some gossip through his mother and eyeliner, saying that Xu Yingcheng said in front of the emperor that this victory had little to do with him, and it was King Huai'an who led the army, and it was his son and Prince Rui who were in command in the army.

One and other words pushed the rest of the people up, including his grandson Yun Yibai, who was not interested in anything except reading.

Prince Rui was very annoyed, but he had to endure them again and again, because he also knew that with his own strength, he would not dare to compete with the Xu family's father and son at this moment.

Because at this moment, the hot queen mother and the concubine in the harem are all daughters or sisters of other people, and Yun Pengfei can't do anything to others even if he is angry.

It's just that Yun Yichen is a little lost, obviously the emperor knows that he drove away the enemy army, and he didn't even give him a copper plate, and he didn't even mention a word, which is really pitiful.

Himself, it's just an attempt to invite credit, it doesn't matter, anyway, there will be a chance in the future, he doesn't believe that the emperor will always listen to Xu Yingcheng muttering in his ear, sooner or later the emperor will also annoy him, and when the time comes, he Yun Pengfei must report Xu Zekun's various behaviors on the front line to the emperor, and let his imperial brother think about what the consequences of such a person assisting him in the government will be!

You don't want me to be comfortable, and I won't make you comfortable! Yun Pengfei thought so after receiving the emperor's edict.

Just because the soldiers of the Yan clan hid back to the mouth of the Min River and did not dare to come out, Yun Yichen and the army had no choice but to deal with them for a while, no matter how they called the battle, they did not come out to fight, which also made Yun Yichen very helpless.

Fortunately, Wei Qinian told him that there was a place not far from here where he could control the water source in the Minhe Estuary City, and as long as he could give the water source to the soldiers in the city, he would be defeated.

It's just that autumn has begun at this moment, so the nearby herdsmen and farmers are about to harvest in autumn, and if the water source is forcibly cut off, it will affect many local people, so it is better to wait for a while.

What's more, the water source is still not far from here, if you are really forced to do so, you should not move that idea first.

Yun Yichen ordered people to build ditches and roads near the camp to prepare for the arrival of the army attacking the mouth of the Min River in the future.

Brother Yu's leg was finally completely healed, in addition to starting to practice, she also asked those soldiers who could ride horses how to ride horses, so when Yun Yichen returned to the Xizhi camp barracks a month later, he saw Brother Yu walking slowly on a horse.

Obviously, Brother Yu, who was dedicated to learning to ride, did not notice his arrival, and still carefully controlled the horse's reins on the horse's back and walked slowly.

Yun Yichen looked at the figure who was still thin, riding on such a tall horse, looking so petite.

Looking at his cautious appearance again, I can't help but be a little playful, since he didn't see himself, then make a joke with him, and see how he reacts when he sees himself?

He drove the horse quickly to her horse, and then secretly patted her on the back.

Brother Yu's heart was spent on the horse he was riding, and he didn't notice that someone had walked to his side at all, and she was startled after she was patted by him, and suddenly looked back at him!
