Chapter 252: Threat
On the other side, seeing that the city wall had fallen, Dongfang Yi put on armor and led the troops to the gap, plus the defenders on the city wall, for a while, the soldiers of the South Vietnamese Kingdom still had no way to come in.
Just when the battle was stalemate, I saw shouts of killing in the distance, and another team of cavalry appeared.
After a while, another team appeared, although there were not many, but the troops of the South Vietnamese State were constantly harassed by the cavalry, and there was no way to attack, which reduced a lot of pressure on Dongfang Yi's side.
When Zhen Qingyun saw several groups of cavalry, he immediately panicked, and even gave up the catapult and led the rest of the people to break through in the direction of his city.
However, Mo Xun naturally would not let go of this opportunity, and immediately blew the horn, and the cavalry gathered one after another, chasing the remaining soldiers.
In the evening, everyone began to celebrate, and they all sighed at Dongfang Yi's strategy.
"Eastern Military, I really obeyed your strategy, I didn't expect to disperse the cavalry so effectively." Mo Xun said.
"Actually, that's just delaying time, plus Zhen Qingyun is suspicious, he must have thought that we had a lot of cavalry raids, so he went back." Dongfang Yi explained.
Seeing that there is a gap in the wall this time, it will be very troublesome if it can't be repaired, and it is even a question whether it can withstand the next attack.
Dongfang Yi also understood that this time it was completely done by a surprise attack, but it exposed all his strength, and next time it would not be so easy to deal with.
In the evening, the three of them discussed what happened next, and Mo Xun felt that the current soldiers were still recovering, and they were not suitable for fighting, and they needed to recuperate for a while.
However, Dongfang Yi didn't think so, he felt that he had to take the initiative to attack and attack the unprepared, so as to buy time for Mo Xuanyin's recovery.
For a while, Gu Xiqian couldn't make up her mind, so she had to go outside to relax.
At this time, he saw Qi Lan grinding medicine, so he walked over curiously.
"Divine doctor, will you blame us this time?" Gu Xiqian looked at her and asked.
"No, but I hope you can end this battle quickly, I really can't stand these images." Qi Lan said with some dissatisfaction.
During this time, Qi Lan was in the camp to heal the soldiers' wounds, sometimes the soldiers' wounds were ugly, and even the smell of blood made him a little uncomfortable after a long time, and he just wanted to go back as soon as possible.
Hearing Qi Lan complaining, Gu Xiqian had no choice but to come down.
Just as she was about to leave, Qi Lan stopped her.
"This is for you, take it and poison it to the other party, I believe it will be very useful." Qi Lan said.
Gu Xiqian opened the bottle and asked, only to feel that the thing was very familiar, like the smell of the epidemic that appeared in the soldiers last time.
"Divine doctor, what is this?" Gu Xiqian asked.
"This is a medicinal herb similar to the last epidemic, as long as you throw it into the water and let people drink it, they will be like those soldiers, within five days, they will vomit and diarrhea and collapse, and die."
Hearing that the epidemic was so severe last time, Gu Xiqian was a little hesitant, but thinking that the other party was ruthless with such a means and such a face, Gu Xiqian still decided to be ruthless.
"Divine doctor, thank you."
The next day, Gu Xiqian was about to take it out and told her plan, both of them agreed, and then arranged for spies to poison her, and on the other hand, they were actively preparing for war.
Sure enough, two days later, Zhen Qingyun's soldiers began to show the same symptoms as the previous epidemic, and all of them vomited and diarrhea, and their combat effectiveness decreased sharply.
Zhen Qingyun saw such a scene and immediately arranged an antidote, but at this time, there was a shout of killing, which was the coalition army taking the opportunity to attack his city.
"Everyone! Fall back! Zhen Qingyun said.
In the face of the menacing coalition army, Zhen Qingyun had no choice but to fight the soldiers to the nearest city, hoping to alleviate the symptoms.
After successfully taking the city, Dongfang Yi did not give Zhen Qingyun a chance to breathe, and the cavalry of the Three Kingdoms Alliance kept harassing Zhen Qingyun's troops, due to the spread of the epidemic, Zhen Qingyun's people had almost no power to fight back, and even almost died several times.
However, two days later, at the cost of losing tens of thousands of people, Zhen Qingyun still escaped.
Looking at such a result, everyone was also very satisfied, except that Zhen Qingyun was not eliminated at that time.
"So what do we do now?" Gu Xiqian said.
"Wait, rest and recuperate, for a while, our battle line has been stretched too long, let's wait for reinforcements to arrive and make plans." Dongfang Yi said.
After a period of time, Zhen Qingyun had already recovered, and seeing that he had lost a city in vain, and had lost tens of thousands of people, he was a little angry.
"Damn Gu Ye, if he hadn't said anything about the truce before, Lao Tzu would have destroyed them a long time ago."
At this time, everyone also missed Mu Chuan, facing people like Zhen Qingyun, so that everyone also lost confidence in him, and even the way was a waste of money and money, and many people thought that he was not suitable for leading troops.
"General, if not, let's get Lord Makikawa back." The adjutant general said on the side.
At this time, the surrounding generals also agreed with this opinion, and they all wanted Makikawa to come back and lead the troops.
However, now replacing himself with someone is simply an indication of his incompetence for Zhen Qingyun, and such a thing is something he does not want to see.
"Hearing you say this, do you mean that I am not as good as Makikawa?" Zhen Qingyun said.
At this time, everyone couldn't help but bow their heads, "General, we didn't mean that, it's just that Mu Chuan is more familiar with Mo Xuanyin, if there is a fight, his words can be used as a reference." ”
Zhen Qingyun felt that he had been insulted, but they were all Muchuan's old subordinates, and it would be impossible if they were really towards him.
"I understand, but now that he has broken tendons in his hands and feet, I will only arrange a position for him as a military advisor." After speaking, he sent someone to the capital, and Mu Chuan picked it up.
However, he was shocked to hear the news of the soldier's reply, and Makikawa had already gone to Sichuan at this time.
Thinking of this, Zhen Qingyun was a little puzzled, only to see that the soldier then said that two people came to look for him before, and then he packed his things and left the tomb of the first king.
Hearing this, Zhen Qingyun felt that something was wrong, could it be that someone said something to him to leave Nanyue Kingdom?
Moreover, the map of Sichuan is not far from Yunnan, so if you say this, it is very likely that someone from Yunnan will come to persuade him.
"You guys, remember this and this in a moment... Let's go to Makikawa. Zhen Qingyun said.
"But General, that's the case." The soldiers hesitated.
"Now are you a general or am I a general? I'll do what I tell you to do! Zhen Qingyun roared angrily.
The soldier had no choice but to do so.
A few days later, he lived a leisurely life with his children in Muchuan, Sichuan, and the farmland behind the former residence of Emperor Xiang also allowed him to grow crops, and he did not worry about eating and drinking.
One day at noon, when he returned to his home digging up the vegetables he had grown, he found that several people dressed as Yunnan soldiers had come in and taken his children away.
"Who are you?" Makikawa was surprised.
However, the soldiers at this time ignored Makikawa and immediately ran away with the child in his arms.
Makikawa didn't dare to swing his hoe for fear of hitting the children, so he could only chase them.
"Stop, give me back the baby!" Makikawa shouted.
Everyone still ran, but seeing that the child in their arms was also innocent, they held it more carefully.
When they came to the entrance of the village, Makikawa watched them ride their horses and leave, and suddenly knelt down helplessly.
"Give me back my child..."
Remembering that the armor worn by the soldier was from Yunnan Kingdom, Mu Chuan felt that something was wrong, so he inquired about the news and went to Nanyue Kingdom.
A few days later, Mu Chuan finally returned, and he was a little surprised to see that the flag erected in the city was actually from Yunnan.
"What's going on?" Makikawa looked at the flag in front of him and even suspected that he had come to the wrong place.
At this time, Mo Xuanyin had just gotten out of bed, and when he was preparing for the event, the next person came to tell him that Mu Chuan was coming.
"Makikawa? What is he doing here? Mo Xuanyin asked in surprise.
When I came to the main hall, I saw Mu Chuan sitting alone, his face a little anxious.
"Makikawa? How did you get back? Is Sichuan having a bad time? Or you're..."
I saw Mu Chuan interrupt him, "Mo Xuanyin, I really can't imagine that you are such a person, let me and my child go to Sichuan, and arrest my child and threaten me within a few days of idle life?" ”
Facing Mu Chuan's questioning, Mo Xuanyin didn't reflect for a long time.
"What did you say? I've been injured and lying in bed for almost a month, how can I do such a thing? Have I offended you? Or do you want to go back and help Zhen Qingyun? If not, what am I going to do with your child? Mo Xuanyin asked rhetorically.
Mu Chuan had no choice but to say what happened at that time, but Mo Xuanyin said that he had been at war with the South Vietnamese State during this time, and if someone came to impersonate them to take his child away, such an idea would not be impossible.
"Tell me, it's possible that someone from South Vietnam took my child?" Makikawa said.
"I think they want you to help them deal with me, that's why they use this method, if I'm not mistaken, there are a lot of soldiers in South Vietnam now who are yours." Mo Xuanyin guessed.
"Alas, I didn't expect to stay away from Hongchen, but I found that I still couldn't hide in the end." Makikawa sighed.
Mo Xuanyin was also a little helpless, but the child was innocent, if Mu Chuan didn't save him, he didn't know how Zhen Qingyun would embarrass the child.
"I know, you can go, if you really meet it then, then you can rely on your ability." Mo Xuanyin said helplessly.
Makikawa was a little surprised, why didn't he arrest himself? Wouldn't that be one less enemy?
Prepare food and water for him, Mo Xuanyin found someone to leave Mu Chuan safely.
"I hope that when the time comes, we won't meet on the battlefield, after all, you are already half a waste." Mo Xuanyin said.
