In the blink of an eye, Wang Shiqing had already led the army for ten days, during this period, because the warships were not there, Jiang Huanyan's siege was not as active as before, and he would withdraw in less than two hours each time.

But Niu Qingyuan knew that it was not that Jiang Huanyan was not working hard, but that he was baiting Wang Shiqing. Once the Qi army attacks the city with all its might, Wang Shiqing will definitely attack from behind, but the final outcome is not that Wang Shiqing's sneak attack is successful, but that the Yan State Navy is completely annihilated.

Although he saw through all this, Niu Qingyuan couldn't warn him now, the vast sea, and there was no battlefield in the city, where could he go to find him?

Niu Qingyuan has already thought about it, once defeated, he will definitely not be able to escape back to Anyang, not to mention whether Zhu Tingxun will kill him because of the loss of Penglai, let's just say that Anyang is only half a day's journey from Penglai, if Penglai is really lost, Anyang will immediately have to be surrounded by the Qi army, so what is the point of going back by himself except waiting for death?

If you think about it, the only place you can go is Ryukyu. He and Shi Luosheng have some friendship, and Ni Yun, the second leader of Xiachuan Island, has been staying in Naha since he was merged into Changxing Island, and he can be regarded as having a foothold when he goes.

Besides, the Tianluo Sect attaches great importance to maritime trade, and a person like himself who is proficient in naval warfare will not worry that he will not be useful in the future.

"The commander is not good, Zeng Dong, the deputy leader of the Nujiao Gang, launched an attack on us with Qi warships and a large number of masters." The spies rushed in, interrupting Niu Qingyuan's train of thought.

"Is Zeng Dong leading the troops? Did you see Jiang Huanyan? Niu Qingyuan no longer cares about Penglai's defense.

"The flag hanging on the flagship is Zeng Dong's flag, and no trace of Jiang Huanyan has been found for the time being." The spy replied.

"It seems that he has already set up an ambush and is waiting for Wang Shiqing to throw himself into the net." Niu Qingyuan smiled bitterly: "You go and inform all the generals and let them all go to the dock, and you must block Zeng Dong." ”

Port cities are different from inland cities, inland cities can be surrounded on all sides to resist foreign invasions, but at least one side of the port city is near the sea, and it is very inconvenient to build a city wall, so the dock has become the focus of defense. As long as the dock is still there, the large warships of the Qi army will not be able to dock, and if they find a shoal to get on, it will easily run aground.

By the time Niu Qingyuan arrived at the dock, the two sides had already fought together. The two elders, Zhong and Mu, also led the Ghost Shadow Sect who were originally stationed in Penglai City to fight with the masters of the Angry Jiao Gang.

Although the Nujiao Gang is not as famous as the Tianqi Sect in the Qi State, there are not many masters in the gang, and they are all proficient in naval warfare.

"Commander, the situation is a little bad, this time the Qi army is really moving, even Zeng Dong personally rushed to the front line." One of the generals noticed that something was wrong with the situation in the field.

Niu Qingyuan looked in the direction of his finger and saw Zeng Dong fighting with Elder Ling. The martial arts of the Ghost Shadow Gate are known for their light skills, but on the battlefield, people and people are crowded together, and the advantages of light skills cannot be brought into play.

And Zeng Dong fights in the waves all the year round, and his martial arts are also known for his strong internal strength, and every move seems to have a thousand powers.

The two of them dismantled less than fifty moves, and Elder Ji was already in danger, and he was slapped in the left shoulder and right abdomen, and he was about to die on the spot. Elder Mu not far away wanted to come to the rescue, but was entangled by another elder of the Angry Jiao Gang and couldn't pull out.

Niu Qingyuan didn't have a good impression of these two people, if Penglai was lost, these two people would be the culprits, so he didn't bother to order the city defense army to save them, just silently looked at the sea level in the distance, and didn't even want to care about the battle in front of him.

In the direction of Niu Qingyuan's lookout, a large-scale battle was also being staged.

After Jiang Huanyan found out that Penglai's warships were all taken away by Wang Shiqing, she also smiled secretly in her heart: "Niu Qingyuan, Niu Qingyuan, you should have used this trick a long time ago, will it be a little too late to use it now?" ”

Many generals in the Qi army suggested that they first encircle and suppress Wang Shiqing's naval army, and then attack Penglai Wharf. But Jiang Huanyan felt that it was too time-consuming to encircle and suppress a naval army on the vast sea, and it was very likely that they would not be able to annihilate them all in the end, so it was better to find a way to let them fall into the net.

So Jiang Huanyan led the army to tentatively attack Penglai City several times, and during these attacks, he found that Wang Shiqing was wandering around with a warship. This made him even more decisive that Wang Shiqing did not want to escape with the warship, but to find an opportunity to sneak attack him.

Jiang Huanyan decided to make a plan, and let Zeng Dong first take half of his troops to storm Penglai City to lure them out, while he hid in the shadows, using the water army camp as bait, and prepared to completely annihilate the Yan State Naval Army.

Sure enough, not long after the siege of Penglai began, Wang Shiqing appeared with forty warships, he looked at the empty Qi army water village, thinking that Jiang Huanyan had taken them to attack the city, so he rushed in directly.

When the warships rushed into the camp gate, they found that the entire water village had burned by itself. Just when Wang Shiqing was puzzled, Jiang Huanyan appeared with fifty warships.

Wang Shiqing shouted that he was in the middle of the plan, and hurriedly ordered the bow of the ship to be turned around, wanting to break out. However, the water village is extremely small, and there are fires all around, how can it be so easy to rush out.

In an instant, Jiang Huanyan led his troops to the camp gate, and he did not attack directly, but ordered to block several camp gates and put rockets inside. The fire borrowed the wind, and the wind helped the fire, and soon all the Yan warships were burned.

"Hurry up and let the boat go, everyone let the boat go out." When Wang Shiqing saw that the warship was on fire, he wanted to escape in a small boat.

But on a warship of three or four hundred people, there are only two small boats with seven or eight people at most, so how can everyone divide it? When life is at stake, who cares about others.

As soon as a small boat was lowered into the sea, twenty or thirty people climbed on it, and some people kept jumping up, and finally the small boat could not bear the weight and capsized to the bottom of the sea.

The fire burned for an hour before it gradually weakened, Jiang Huanyan left twenty warships to clean up the battlefield, and by the way, he cleaned up the fish that slipped through the net, and then rushed to Penglai with the rest of the people to support Zeng Dong.

At this time, in Penglai Port, the wharf had been lost, Elder Ji was also killed by Zeng Dong, and Niu Qingyuan was organizing the Yan army to fight in the streets. Jiang Huanyan's arrival only hastened the end of this war.

"Third prince, Penglai City has been taken down by us, but Niu Qingyuan has not been found anywhere." After the war, Zeng Dong reported the casualties to Jiang Huanyan.

"Then you don't have to look for it anymore, even if the general of the defeated army escapes, Zhu Tingxun will not let him go. Let's hurry up and pack up, and this time we must capture Anyang City. Jiang Huanyan didn't care about Niu Qingyuan's life and death, anyway, the Yan State Navy had been wiped out, and the deputy commander Wang Shiqing was also buried in the fire, and the Yan Army was no longer a threat at sea.

"Your Majesty's big thing is not good, Penglai is lost, and the Qi army is about to come to the city." Ning Zefeng received the battle report and hurriedly reported to Zhu Tingxun.

Zhu Tingxun was shocked: "It's only been less than a month, and Penglai is lost?" What is Niu Qingyuan doing? His first reaction was that Niu Qingyuan was too incompetent.

Ning Zefeng already knew the whole story of the war, but he didn't dare to tell Zhu Tingxun, it was because of his distrust that Penglai was lost.

"Your Majesty, you better leave Anyang first, the Qi army will soon surround here." Ning Zefeng cautiously persuaded.

"Bastard, do you want me to learn Xiong Huan? I am the king of a country, if even I am afraid to flee, can I expect other soldiers to defend the city with all their hearts? Zhu Tingxun reprimanded angrily.

Every time he talked to others about the demise of the Chu State, he would always say that if he were Xiong Huan, he would never leave Shouchun City, but he didn't expect it to be his turn so soon.

"Your Majesty, now is not the time to be rash, you can't stay in Anyang, once you are surrounded, then our Dayan will be torn apart." Ning Zefeng was anxious in his heart, and he didn't care about the dignity and humility of the orderly.

"Don't persuade me anymore, I won't leave." Zhu Tingxun didn't care about his unreasonableness, thought about it and said, "But there is one thing I want to trouble Sect Master Ning to do it for me." ”

Ning Zefeng hurriedly knelt on the ground: "If Your Majesty has an order, how dare the minister not listen." ”

Zhu Tingxun took out a blank edict from the desk, quickly wrote it on it, and then stamped it with a big seal. He handed the letter to Ning Zefeng along with the big seal: "Sect Master Ning, you will take the crown prince Zhu Qitang to Jinxing City now, and announce my will when you arrive." ”

Ning Zefeng opened it and sat on the ground in fright. It turned out that Zhu Tingxun planned to abdicate himself, let the crown prince Zhu Qitang ascend the throne, and set the new capital as Jinxing.

"Your Majesty, you better go with me, Dayan can't live without you at the moment." Ning Zefeng cried bitterly.

Zhu Tingxun's nose was sour, and he forcibly held back his tears: "I am a sinner of Dayan, and I have no face to go to see my ancestors and ancestors again, if I die in Anyang, then tell the prince that I must not move into the Taimiao." Okay, Jiang Huanyan will be here soon, if you don't leave, you will be disloyal to the country. ”

Ning Zefeng was helpless, so he had to kneel down and kowtow three times, then turned around and left.

"Sect Master, after the loss of Penglai, Anyang has been surrounded by Jiang Huanyan's 50,000 troops, and the Qi country itself is also transporting troops from the sea one after another, or it won't be long before the Qi army under Anyang City will exceed 100,000." The Hidden Star Sect was responsible for the development of the Tianluo Sect in the Central Plains, so all information about the mainland would pass through Yang Yi's hands first, and then he would report it to Shi Luosheng.

"Niu Qingyuan won't be able to hold on for even a month? Could it be that the third brother is so powerful now? "Shi Luosheng is also very puzzled that Penglai will lose so quickly.

"That's not it, I just received a letter from the lord of Takenaka City, saying that Niu Qingyuan has fled to Naha, and he wants to join our Tianluo Sect, this is the whole story he wrote about the loss of Penglai." Yang Yi took out another letter and handed it to Shi Luosheng.
