November 23 of the first year of Fengtian, Nanyang war report, Nanzhao County lost, Ren Guang and Su Tong led troops to retreat south to Wancheng, Xingyang Wang He Ying led 10,000 troops into Wancheng, on the same day, Huangfu Nan issued an edict on behalf of Gongsun Ning, appointing He Ying as the governor of Wancheng, blocking the alliance between Yancen and Pi Tong, Ren Guang and Su Tong jointly managed the Wancheng war, Murong Guang led the army back to Nanyang to garrison, at this time, the Wancheng defenders totaled 30,000, the Nanyang defenders were originally 50,000, after a series of consumption, only 20,000 people remained; Han Chu, who was stationed in Xixia County, also retreated to Neixiang County on 19 November, and after more than a month of attrition, there were less than 20,000 people left, that is to say, there were still 70,000 troops in the Nanyang battalion.

The Han army alone had nearly 100,000 troops under Yancen and Pi Tong, and Dai Juncheng's troops in the south had also increased to 100,000 troops.

And Huangfu Nan has already arranged the little emperor Gongsun Ning into Changsha country, and now Gongsun Ning is in Changsha Wangxing, the capital of Changsha State, which is considered to have retreated to the rear, if Nanyang is lost, the only choice is to retreat to Changsha State, relying on the solidity of Fancheng, and once again block the footsteps of the Han army.

On the same day, Liu Jing ordered the general Du Yilong to supervise 50,000 troops and horses into Henan, preparing to attack Dengzhou by detouring through Xichuan, intending to attack from the rear of Nanyang, completely cutting off the retreat of the Nanyang defenders.

Liu Xuan knew very well in his heart that Huangfu Nan was the last pillar of the Cheng Dynasty after Shangguan Yin Feng left, as long as he could take Huangfu Nan in Nanyang, then the Cheng Dynasty would collapse with a bang, even if Changsha was a vast country, it would not be able to cause a powerful situation to it, and Jianghuai also had the Chu army of Liu Penzi, the king of Chu, who could completely control the remaining two princes of the Gongsun clan under his palm, and after the war in the Central Plains was calmed down, he would further eliminate the remnants of the Gongsun clan, of course, all of this was also facilitated by Prime Minister Zhao Meng.

On the 27th, Yan Cen led 50,000 troops to start an attack on Wancheng, and Pi Tong's army also joined the ranks of the siege later, the city wall of Wancheng was tall and strong, the city defense facilities were complete, the Han army besieging the city was repulsed by bows and arrows again and again, Yan Cen and Pi Tong, who suffered heavy casualties, gave up the attack under the order of Liu Xuan, and instead waited for the arrival of Dai Juncheng and Du Yilong's army, preparing to encircle Wancheng on three sides, which also caused pressure on Nanyang.

On November 28, in Shandong, Cheng Gongwu's eldest son, Dongping Wang Chengqingzhi, led 30,000 cavalry to repel Qian Menglong's department in the east of Liaohe, and surrounded Chen Xun's department at night, and Chen Xun's department had a fierce battle that night, Chen Xun's department suffered heavy casualties, and he himself was captured by Cheng Qingzhi's life in front of the chaotic army, and then escorted to Jinan.

Liaocheng, the county guard's house

Shangguan Yin Feng looked at Qian Menglong, Yuan Liang, and Yuan Han who were kneeling in front of him with a serious face, and shook his head helplessly, Chen Xun was completely unexpected, Chen Xun's department totaled more than 6,000 people, stationed outside Guanxian County, west of Liaocheng, as a response to the troops, but was broken by Cheng Qingzhi.

"Lord Wang, the last general has been defeated by Cheng Qing several times, and General Chen has been captured, the last general is guilty, and I ask the prince to punish him." Qian Menglong touched the ground with his head as he spoke, it is a great shame to fail several times as a soldier, if he is captured alive and then released, it is simply more annoying than killing himself.

Seeing this, Yuan Liang and Yuan Han also touched the ground with their heads, and said that Shangguan Yin Feng would punish them, but the two of them knew very well in their hearts that they were only deputy generals, and Qian Menglong was the main general, even if it was a punishment, the main general would suffer more.

"Chengqingzhi is really not simple, first attack Linqing, then take a detour and then attack the defeated troops of Qian Menglong's department, and then attack Guanxian County, its military action goals are very regular, it seems that he is well versed in the art of war, this person is by no means comparable to Yuan Shijie, not to be underestimated." Shangguan Yin Feng shook his head and said, he only now felt that he had despised Cheng Qingzhi before, and the main reason was that he still had the Shenwu cannon in his hand as a backing, but there was one point, the Shenwu cannon was too bulky, and the mobility was not strong, once he was led by the enemy's nose, he could only be beaten passively: "This guy's strategy and tactics are very much like sparrow warfare, but every time he attacks, he will succeed, what is he..."

Huang Wei was accustomed to hearing Shangguan Yin Feng's scolding novelty words, which was rare and not strange, but the three words 'sparrow war' made him feel very puzzled, but when he thought of asking and being scolded before, he didn't dare to say more: "Lord Wang, the spy came to report today, and Cheng Qingzhi has disappeared, and I don't know where he went." ”

Shangguan Yin Feng frowned and looked at Huang Wei, this was the first time he had encountered a situation where he didn't know where his opponent had gone since he founded Jinyiwei, and he was probably angry before: "It's a little interesting... The Han army led by Gai Yan on the Puyang side also entered the territory of Shandong, and its advance was no more than a hundred miles away from us, and according to this situation, Cheng Gongwu either surrendered to Liu Xuan, or made some deal with Liu Xuan. ”

"Lord Wang, the information from Nanyang has come..."As soon as Shangguan Yin Feng's words fell, a brocade-clothed guard walked into the lobby and bowed to Shangguan Yin Feng and said.

Seeing this, Shangguan Yin Feng first asked Qian Menglong and the other three to get up, ordered them to wear the crime and make meritorious contributions, and then asked the hundred households to summon the messenger in, and the person who came was dressed in brocade clothes, and at a clear glance, he knew that it was the regular clothes that Jinyi Wei usually wore, and the person who came knelt down on one knee towards Shangguan Yin Feng and said: "Zhao Ping, the chief flag officer of Zhang Baihu, the lowly Jinyi Weibei Town, see the prince..." He Ying, the king of Xingyang, was wounded by an arrow, General Su and General Murong, the Marquis of Yangcheng who came from Huaiyang, were slightly wounded, and the king of Xingyang led nearly 10,000 people to retreat to Nanyang; General Han was attacked by Du Yilong's department of the Han army in Zhenping, and almost all the troops were wiped out, and only a few dozen people were withdrawn to Nanyang City, and now there are 30,000 troops in Nanyang City, and the situation is not optimistic; It took a lot of hardships to come here. ”

Shangguan Yin Feng was shocked when he heard that Ren Guang had died in battle, and then he felt dizzy and swollen, and he couldn't stand up anymore, and fell backwards.

"Lord Wang..."

Shangguan Yin Feng just heard the shouts of the soldiers, and then fell into darkness in front of him.

That night, in the Liaocheng County Guard's Mansion, Shen Lihua was just about to wipe Shangguan Yin Feng's face, when she saw Shangguan Yin Feng open her eyes, and then she couldn't hide her joy, tears burst out of her eyes, and she threw herself on Shangguan Yin Feng's chest and cried, Shangguan Yin Feng wiped Shen Lihua's tears with his hands, and then sat up with difficulty, just about to speak, Shen Lihua couldn't help but feel nauseous, turned her head to the side and retched.

Shangguan Yin Feng's originally sad mood was good for a while, and he held Shen Lihua's hand and asked, "Lihua, are you pregnant?" ”

"Lord Wang, I've been feeling dizzy and weak lately, I'm very sleepy, and I often vomit more than once, and my subordinates have found Lang Zhong, it's Ximai..."

Shangguan Yin Feng is also a modern person no matter how he says it, so he naturally knows this, looked at Shen Lihua, and said happily: "This king is going to have a son, he is going to have a son, hahaha..."

"The prince knows that it is a son, what if it is a daughter?"

"It's the same with my daughter... Hahaha..."After a burst of joy, Shangguan Yin Feng let out a long sigh again, asked Shen Lihua to dress him completely, and then walked towards the hall of the county guard's mansion.
