Chapter Ninety-Eight: Waiting
However, it was said that Wang Shilong had attacked Danzhou for a few days, and had successfully recovered Miyun County, and then divided his troops into two ways to attack Yanle County and Xingtang County.
Wang Shilong has always been worried about the situation of Zhang Shaohua's army on the middle road, and he is very anxious. It's just that he really has no time to scruple, if he wants to send troops from him to Guqiu, he must pass through Shunzhou, but Shunzhou is still in the hands of the Bohai Navy, if you detour to Youzhou and then go to Guqiu, you must cross the Gu River, and the Bohai defenders in Shunzhou will inevitably be dispatched to intercept on the way, so not only is it a waste of time, but it disperses the troops, so it is a dilemma. It wasn't until he received the news from Jiang Xing a few days ago that Yu Wenxuan had arrived at the border pass and rode alone into the mountain, so he relaxed a little.
"General, letter from Youzhou." The herald entered the account, although Wang Shilong was named deputy marshal this time, but he still asked his soldiers to call the general, which sounded accustomed to it.
"Bring it." Wang Shilong said, he took the letterhead, opened it and looked at it, laughed and said, "Okay!" ”
"The prince rode into the mountain alone, relieved the poison of the Hou Ye, and now the army in the middle has all returned to Youzhou." Wang Shilong explained to his colleagues.
"Great! Hou Ye has been poisoned, this is the best news I have heard these days. One of the generals said with a wave of his fist.
"Yes, as soon as the prince came, the siege of Guqiu could really be broken. Ha ha! Another general laughed.
"Alright." Wang Shilong interrupted everyone's discussion, "But this letter also said that the army in the middle route has consumed a lot this time, and we must rest in Youzhou for a while, so we have to capture Yanle and Xingtang as soon as possible." ”
"Yes!" After receiving such morale-boosting news, the whole army was naturally more full of fighting spirit.
The next day, the North Route Army launched another attack on Yanle County and Xingtang County, and in less than ten days, the entire territory of Danzhou was recovered, and the Bohai Navy retreated to Shunzhou. It is worth mentioning that when attacking Xingtang County, Wang Shilong can be described as three arrows. The two armies faced each other, and he showed his superb marksmanship in 100 steps. I saw him open his bow and arrows, and the three arrows were fired at the same time, and the arrow cluster was like having eyes, and he shot the three defenders of the enemy army steadily.
On the other hand, the middle road army also launched an offensive against Liaoxi County again after a few days of rest, this time with Yu Wenxuan and Zhang Shaohua at the same time, Shi Guangtong was naturally difficult to parry, plus the previous battle of Guqiu and Youzhou The Bohai Navy lost nearly 20,000 troops, so Liaoxi County was also recovered in one fell swoop.
As for Ningzhou, Bai Shan, Zhao Jinnian and Tian Boping arrived in Ningzhou before Shi Mu's 50,000 army, and before they had time to breathe, they threw themselves into the battle to defend Ningzhou. And Tian Boping also proved his innocence with practical actions, and he was not in the same league as Sima Rui.
Changan.
"Your Majesty, this is a military report sent back from Dongjiang today." Gonggong Han handed the excerpt to Yuwen Duan.
Yuwen Duan took it and looked at it, and after reading it, he immediately smiled and said, "Yes, it's only been two months that the Black Feather Army has driven away the Bohai Navy that invaded Danzhou and Youzhou, and now only Shun and Jizhou are occupied, it seems that this battle is about to end, and victory is in sight." ”
Taking a deep breath, Yuwenduan sighed again, "Xuan'er, this kid, it's best to finish the battle and come back to me unscathed." ”
"Your Majesty is blessed with the sky, and the prince is auspicious, and he will definitely be safe and triumphant." Gonggong Han said with relief.
Yuwenduan smiled and stopped talking.
In Jingren Palace, Yue'er sat in front of the window with her face propped up, it was already March, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard were beginning to sprout, and she had been staring at it like this every day since she left Yuwenxuan. When all the flowers in the garden are in full bloom, Brother Xuan will come back, Yue'er thought.
A lilac figure flashed out of the window, which was really as demure as a flower shining on the water, and the action was like the wind supporting the willows. The man stretched his neck and glanced at Yue'er secretly, covering his mouth and smiling secretly. Even if he is still holding the pipa and half-covering his face, he still has no color in the six palaces.
"Ning'er, come in, I've seen you a long time ago." Yue'er's voice came from inside the house.
"It's boring, I want to scare you." Yu Wenning walked into the dormitory and came to Yue'er's side, "Why are you so engrossed, isn't it...... Do you miss my brother again? ”
"What do you want him to do, I just want to see when the flowers in this garden will bloom." Yue'er smiled at Yu Wenning.
said he didn't want to, but in his mind and heart, he was full of the young man who liked to wear a blue robe and always held a folding fan in his hand.
"Duplicity." Yu Wenning picked up a piece of pastry from the table and said, "I don't want to, this is not my brother's favorite hazelnut cake." ”
"Can't I eat it myself?" Yue'er continued to quibble.
"Yes, of course." Yu Wenning said, "Sister-in-law, I heard today that my brother and they have won the battle again. ”
After leaving Yuwenxuan, Yuwenning changed her name to Yue'er in private, she said that no matter whether Yuwenxuan and Yue'er's wedding was held or not, anyway, Yue'er would be the princess of Prince Xi sooner or later, in this case, why not call her sister-in-law.
In fact, Yue'er knew that Yu Wenning was afraid that she would be sad, so she comforted her in this way, after all, the groom's official ran away the day before the wedding, which was still a big blow to the bride. Yu Wenning's sister-in-law, as well as the care of Yu Wenduan and Queen Ren, all made Yue'er feel very warm.
Moreover, Yu Wenxuan left a letter when he left, and Yue'er could naturally understand the embarrassment he had to do.
"Princess, please have tea." Xiaolan made tea for Yu Wenning and brought it over.
"yes, okay." Yu Wenning smiled sweetly and motioned for Xiaolan to put the tea on the table.
"Won again." Yue'er's mood at the moment is like the golden sunlight outside the window, and it is also like the watery flower buds in the courtyard, indescribably happy. The more victories are fought, the closer we are to goodbye.
"Did you write to you after my brother left?" Yu Wenning asked.
"No, the war on the front line is tight, how can he be so busy to write letters." Yue'er smiled indifferently, smiling distressingly.
Believe it? Yue'er couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart. Shaohua must have written a lot to Xin'er, but he never came.
You have the world in your heart, but I can only hold you in my heart.
Yu Wenning saw that Yue'er's face was different, and her brows tightened. secretly said that he had said the wrong thing again, and quickly changed the topic, "By the way, sister-in-law, let's go out of the palace to see Xin'er, she must be bored in the house alone, let's go and accompany her." ”
"Okay, let's go." Yue'er got up and took Yu Wenning's hand.
