Chapter Fifty-Eight: Besieged
In this way, the two sides fought for a month, and each side had casualties and a chance of victory.
Zhen Rong listened to them talk about the news of the battlefield, and some people were happy because they had won the battle, but they were not happy, after all, many people had died.
Actually, I know that some of the soldiers of the Lan Kingdom are quietly scolding me behind my back, saying that I am a disaster for the country and the people, which led the monarch of the Chen Kingdom to launch a war and attack the Lan country, otherwise they would still have a stable life. They didn't dare to talk about it openly, after all, it was a capital crime to talk about the princess of the dynasty.
A few days later, she heard that the second brother was going to attack the grain and grass transport trucks of the Chen army, and then cut off their food, so that they had no food supply in the city, and starved to death, even if they did not starve to death, it could weaken their combat effectiveness.
When Zhen Rong heard the news, she felt very bad, she always felt that things were not so simple, she had Beigong Yuliu's heart, he would not know the importance of grain and grass, if he heard any wind and grass, it was estimated that he had already been prepared, how could it be so quiet, quiet and unusual.
She wanted to stop the second brother from sneaking up on the grain and grass camp, but the second brother had already taken people and horses to intercept the grain and grass camp of Chen Kingdom.
In desperation, Zhen Rong hid from Mu Lingfeng and quietly left the camp to find his second brother.
When she went in the direction of the interception site, she walked to that place, and quietly observed in the dark, but there was no trace of people and horses.
She understands that it seems that the second brother has been fooled, and the second brother should have had an accident.
At this time, Sima Xunye on the other side, as Zhen Rong expected, did have an accident, he was trapped in a valley, he couldn't get out, and he couldn't escape. At this time, he realized that all this was just a trick by Beigong Yuliu to lure the enemy into the depths, wanting to completely solve himself.
Beigong Yuliu heard the news that Sima Xunye was besieged, and then, he personally went outside the valley and kept guarding, not letting them come out, he was ready to drag him and the remaining remnants to death.
Zhen Rong, who heard the news, knew that they were surrounded by the valley, and was full of anxiety, and rode to the valley non-stop.
Zhen Rong was thinking all the way, but how should she enter the valley and rescue the second brother, I heard that the valley is a place surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there is only one exit, and now it is guarded by Beigong Yuliu.
In the end, she decided to infiltrate the army of the Kingdom of Chen first, and waited for the opportunity to move.
So, Zhen Rong came to the valley, but she couldn't get in, she stood in the dark, looking at those Chen troops and camped at the mouth of the valley.
If she wants to go in, she must pass the Chen Jun pass, but they are guarding there and can't get in at all, even if she does, how can she rescue the second brother by herself.
It seemed that she needed people, so she hid in the mountains and sent a signal to let the people she arranged not far away come out.
Sure enough, after a while, a general in armor was none other than Wan Qin's younger brother, Wan Yu. He is the captain of the imperial guard's royal brother, everyone has excellent martial arts, and with more than 100 people like him, there is a slight chance of winning.
She was going to let them attack Beigong Yuliu's camp, and then lure away the soldiers guarding the valley mouth and take the opportunity to rescue the second brother.
So, after she finished her plan, she began to act, and when the time came, after successfully rescuing the emperor, she sent a signal to meet here and leave this place together.
Zhen Rong came to the valley with dozens of people, and at this time, Wan Yu on the other side took dozens of people to make trouble in Beigong Yuliu's camp and killed many people.
Wan Yu sent a signal flare, indicating that he had broken into Emperor Chen's camp. And the soldiers guarding the valley mouth here saw that someone came to report, "The emperor has been attacked, may I ask the general to go back to rescue the driver?" ”
At this time, the general still had a little brain, and his tone was majestic, "No, the emperor has said, no matter what happens, strictly guard against it, and not a single fly can be released, otherwise you will come to see you when you go out on business." ”
Zhen Rong originally wanted to lure these people away, but now she had no choice but to change her strategy and attack head-on, taking the opportunity to save Second Brother Chu.
So, Zhen Rong's calm and quiet voice, "Everyone listen, outflank them left and right, scatter them, and then, I will go into the valley to rescue the emperor, you must hold on to the time of half a pillar of incense, let me go in to rescue the emperor, and then join you as soon as possible." ”
The voices of the people were in unison, "Yes, the last general and others should be remembered." ”
Then they swarmed up.
I only heard the shouting, "Kill! The Chen army guard was full of disbelief, and when he calmed down, he immediately ordered in a cold voice, "All the generals will listen to the general's orders and all face the battle." ”
Everyone replied in unison, "Yes." ”
Then, the two sides fought together.
Zhen Rong took the opportunity to enter the valley with a few people, and those guards wanted to intercept them, but it was too late.
When she entered, after a few minutes, she saw the second brother and hundreds of trapped soldiers, his face was full of shock, as if he couldn't believe it, it was me.
Zhen Rong said eagerly: "Second brother, I'm here to save you, go quickly."
After Sima Xunye was sure that it was Zhen Rong, he immediately didn't say a word, got on the same horse with her, and then galloped away, and the rest of the hundreds of soldiers thought that they were going to die, but they didn't expect the princess to come like a god and save them.
Beigong Yuliu on the other side felt that something was wrong, these people seemed to be delaying time, what did he immediately think of?
The tone was cold but indifferent, "Someone! Follow me to the valley. ”
Then, after the soldiers had all stood up, they hurried towards the valley.
At this time, after half a pillar of incense, Zhen Rong, who came out, immediately ordered in a cold voice, "Everyone retreats immediately, and there is no fighting." ”
So, there were still more than a dozen guards left, those who had horses rode together, and those who did not have horses retreated while killing.
Zhen Rong and Sima Xunye fled the valley quickly, because she knew that once Beigong Yuliu reacted, she would immediately bring people to stop her, and at that time, these few people would not be enough to die.
Sure enough, when they left, Beigong Yuliu's soldiers divided into two routes, all the way to the valley, and all the way to the route they were going to pass through.
When he led people to the valley, he saw that Sima Xunye had been rescued, and he was furious.
I only heard him look at the general who was kneeling on the ground, his face was pale with fright, and his tone was cold and ruthless, "What did I say?" Do you remember? ”
The general's voice was in awe, and he replied in a frightened tone, "The last general remembers, the emperor, the emperor said that if you can't hold the valley, come and see you." ”
Beigong Yuliu sneered when he heard this, "Very good, just remember it." Tell me, should I kill you now, or should I let you pay for your crimes? The tone seemed to be inquiring, but his eyes narrowed coldly, and he immediately pulled out the knife of the guard next to him and sealed his throat with a knife.
I saw him squinting, and his tone was cold and ruthless, "If you are so incompetent like him in the future, I will not show mercy." ”
As he spoke, he threw the bloodied knife in his hand to the ground, took out the handkerchief in his arms, and slowly wiped the few drops of blood that had just been splashed in his hand. Then, after wiping it, he threw the handkerchief directly with disgust on his face.
I only listened to his cold voice and ordered, "Go after me immediately, if you can't chase them back, don't come back." ”
Everyone knelt down, "Yes!" ”
Then, everyone pursued in the direction of the camp that returned to Lankoku.
Another group of people from the Beigong Yuliu faction followed closely behind them non-stop.
Seeing that she was about to catch up, Zhen Rong had to order, "Everyone listen, protect the emperor, I will go to intercept them." ”
When Sima Xunye heard this, he immediately retorted, "Third sister, how can I let you put yourself in danger, it's better to send Wan Yu forward." ”
Wan Yu knelt down with a calm but respectful face, "The last general is willing to go and intercept, please don't put yourself in danger." ”
After this time, he understood why the eldest brother loved the woman in front of him so much, not only because she was peerless, but because of her intelligence and cleverness, as well as her tolerance and generosity towards people, and sincerity, so the eldest brother would fall in love with the princess!
Seeing this, Zhen Rong had no choice but to nod, after all, if the delay continued, the pursuers behind would catch up.
So, Zhen Rong and Sima Xunye rode away.
