Two days later, thousands of miles away, Quyang Town.

At this time, after rectifying the Su Mansion and repeatedly persuading Shen Wenjun to relocate the Su Mansion and go to Beiliang to no avail, Ye Liang, temporarily dispatched 10,000 Beiliang soldiers to temporarily protect the Su Mansion.

also said goodbye to Shen Wenjun and others, and continued to rush to the front line non-stop.

Of course, this is not that he only cares about the front-line war, and does not care enough about Shen Wenjun and others, and does not persuade them to leave for Beiliang, but he knows that in Shen Wenjun's ideology, there is a deep-rooted idea of ancestral inheritance.

Therefore, it is impossible for her to leave this so-called root, the so-called ancestral Su Mansion.

And if she doesn't leave, the people of the Su Mansion will naturally not leave, so all he can do is to temporarily transfer 10,000 soldiers to temporarily protect the safety of Shen Wenjun and others.

As for Geng Tianjin, the promise was completed, and after a little conversation with Ye Liang, he did not hesitate and hurriedly returned to the imperial city.

A few hours later, a wilderness not far from Ciyan Mountain.

At this moment, there are two large armies facing each other here, one is encamped in front of the mountain of Ciyan Mountain, and the other is encamped quite a distance away from it.

If you look closely, you can easily see that the camp in front of Ciyan Mountain seems to be deliberately located here to block the way of the opposite army to the south and cross Ciyan Mountain.

Don't let it go south.

When Ye Liang hurried at this time, he could see such a scene, which made his heart feel uneasy instantly, and he hurriedly went to the central camp.

Sure enough, when Ye Liang entered the camp tent, he didn't see that he should be in the same place with the generals, but in the camp of the Chinese army, his sister Ye Yuning, his second uncle Ye Hongwen, and Qi Tianzheng, Yin Shenghai and others.

On the contrary, I heard that the people in the camp were arguing about whether to force the army or wait for Ye Liang to return.

Until Mei Jiuweng, who was standing in the center, caressing his beard, frowning and contemplating, and Ji Yuheng, who also listened to the opinions of both sides and frowned and pondered, was the first to discover the entry Ye Liang.

and got up in unison, and after shouting respectfully to Ye Liang, the noisy crowd reacted, and stopped and saluted Ye Liang respectfully: "Meet the general (pavilion master)." ”

In the face of their shouts, Ye Liang nodded slightly, he stepped to the central seat and sat down, looked at the people present, frowned slightly, and said: "You are either a general of the first army, or a strong man who can stand up and dominate one side." ”

"But now you are in the tent, and you are disputing, even outside the tent, and you are hearing your disputing. ”

His face was slightly displeased: "What do you think about such an act, let the soldiers below?"

"What the general (pavilion master) said is reasonable, and I know that I am wrong. ”

Those soldiers turned red, knelt down with a little guilt, and arched their hands at Ye Liang: "Please also ask the general (pavilion master) to punish." ”

"In this matter, the old decay is also to blame, please punish the cabinet master. Mei Jiuweng also bowed respectfully and pleaded guilty.

"Alright, get up. ”

Seeing that everyone, and even that Ji Yuheng began to plead guilty, Ye Liang slightly restrained his displeasure and asked, "Why are you arguing like this?"

Yu Ye Liang asked, and after Ji Yuheng, who stood up like everyone else, exchanged glances with Mei Jiuweng, he subconsciously walked out and arched his hand at Ye Liang: "Presumably, the general has found out." ”

"We have not joined the army of the second master. ”

"So, the second uncle's army has entered Ciyan Mountain and entered the territory under the jurisdiction of King Huaixiang?" Ye Liang said.

"Yes. ”

Ji Yuheng said: "At that time, although we sent people to stop the second master, the second master did not listen to the messenger's opinion, and still insisted on continuing to march down. ”

"But alas, it's too late. ”

He looked stunned: "Now the second master has entered Ciyan Mountain." ”

"So that means that the second uncle is very likely to have fallen into the trap now and been besieged by the combined forces such as the Nanyun Palace?" Ye Liang said.

If it is not bad, it should be. ”

Ji Yuheng nodded.

"That being the case, why haven't you sent troops until now?" Ye Liang endured the slight anger in his heart.

Thinking about it, if he hadn't trusted Ji Yuheng and Mei Jiuweng, he would have been furious now.

After all, knowing that the people of our army were trapped, and among the trapped people, there were also descendants of the Yefu royal family, and if they didn't send troops to rescue them, this normal person would be furious.

Anyone will even suspect that the leader of the army has a different heart.

Being able to feel Ye Liang's trust in him, so he didn't get angry, Ji Yuheng showed guilt on his face, and said: "Because, the army of King Huaixiang on the other side takes thousands of Beiliang soldiers as hostages. ”

"Therefore, the subordinates really dare not send troops easily. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty to Ye Liang: "Yuheng is useless, please also ask the general to punish him." ”

"Take my Beiliang soldiers as hostages?" Ye Liang frowned slightly.

"Yes, General. ”

A general who seemed to be quite young, with a handsome face and a little strong blood, took a step forward and said angrily: "The old thief of King Huaixiang, the Beiliang soldiers he captured are imprisoned in the camp. ”

"Whenever there is the slightest change in our army, or even half a step forward, he will take out a group of soldiers and put them in the plains and wilderness, and behead them in public, so as to warn and threaten our army, and prevent our army from acting rashly. ”

"You mean, whenever our army wants to attack the army of King Huaixiang, they will pull out a group of soldiers to behead the public?" Ye Liang's eyes revealed a few wisps of murderous intent.

"Yes. ”

The general nodded and said: "King Huaixiang said that as long as our army dares to move once, he will pull out a group of soldiers and behead them once until they are all killed." ”

"And..."

He was angry: "Today, Dong Chengtai, the king of Huaixiang, also sent a message to me, asking me to immediately retreat thirty miles, otherwise, he will continue to kill my Beiliang soldiers today." ”

"Dong Chengtai!"

Ye Liang's fists clenched, Teng Tao's killing intent rolled up in his body, and he said word by word: "You deceive people too much!"

"The subordinates (old decay) are incompetent, they have not been able to stop the second master's army in time, and they have not been able to solve the current dilemma, and they have failed to save the Beiliang soldiers, and they also ask the general (pavilion master) to punish them. ”

Ji Yuheng and Mei Jiuweng saw Ye Liang's angry state, looked at each other, and said in unison.

"I don't blame you for this, it's my own inconsiderate and negligent thoughts. ”

Ye Liang was restrained and angry, and said calmly to the two of them: "You guys get up." ”

Indeed, he knew that Mei Jiuweng and Ji Yuheng were both calm and cautious, but they lacked courage, and the reason why he let the two of them command the army was because the two of them were stable, and there would never be a big problem.

In this way, the calmness of the two of them, combined with his now somewhat impulsive second uncle Ye Hongwen, is the best combination that can complement each other.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and they failed to join forces with Ye Hongwen after all, so the cautious Mei Jiuweng and the two, under the threat of King Huaixiang and Beiliang soldiers, naturally did not dare to rush into battle at will.

After all, although the two of them are Ye Liang's subordinates, one of them is from Xuantian Pavilion, and the other is from the former Zhongzhou Palace, so it can be said that neither of them was born in the Beiliang military camp.

In this case, they commanded the Beiliang army, and when dealing with the enemy army that controlled the lives of the Beiliang prisoners of war, they would naturally have more worries and more elbows.

Because once an order is not good and something goes wrong, it will lead to the death of the people, and it is likely to make the Beiliang soldiers feel that they do not take the lives of the Beiliang soldiers as their lives, and there will be estrangement, causing an impact on people's hearts.

It was a disadvantage to themselves and the entire army, so it was completely understandable for them to do this.

It seems that Ye Liang not only did not blame himself, but also took the initiative to take responsibility for himself, after Ji Yuheng and Mei Jiuweng were slightly moved, Ji Yuheng knelt down and arched his hand: "General..."

"Well, now is not the time to talk about that, get up. ”

Interrupting a word, Ye Liang said with a solemn expression: "Dong Chengtai said, when is the final time limit for me to withdraw from the army?"

Is this to retire the army and save the lives of those Beiliang soldiers?

Just when everyone in the camp tent was a little surprised by Ye Liang's words, a shouting voice suddenly came from outside the camp tent: "Hey, have you thought about it, whether you will retreat or not." ”

Immediately afterwards, a young man dressed in a luxurious robe and with a strong scholarly spirit directly broke into the camp tent and said to everyone arrogantly: "Consider telling me the answer quickly, so that I can reply to my king." ”

Facing his domineering attitude, Ye Liang's deep dark eyes fell on him, and said, "You are the person sent by Dong Chengtai to spread the message?"

"Not bad. ”

The man raised his head high, looked at Ye Liang, who seemed to be a little young, with a contemptuous expression, and said, "Who are you?"

As he spoke, he raised his head, some nostrils were facing the sky, and he looked at Ye Liang and said, "Ben will never talk to low-level people." ”

Scold... Are you embarrassed to call yourself a general?

Ye Liang sneered in his heart, and was about to speak, but Cao Feng took the lead in taking a step forward, pulled out his sword from the sheath, and said: "Bold, this is the commander of my army, the grandson of the King of Beiliang, Major General Ye Liang!"

"Oh?"

After the man glanced at Ye Liang a few times with a little interest, he looked a little more disappointed, shook his head and said, "I thought that I could make my lord 'value', and how strong the person who wanted to kill was." ”

"It turns out that it's just a yellow-mouthed child who hasn't grown a dime. ”

"Bold!"

Cao Feng and other generals who were bursting with temperament took a step forward in unison and shouted: "Dare to be rude to the general, don't kneel down yet!"

"Do you really want me to kneel?" the man raised his head proudly and threatened with some arrogance: "I can tell you, as soon as I kneel, more people will die in your Beiliang soldiers, so you can think about it and decide whether I want to kneel or not." ”

"You!"

The anger of Cao Feng, Guan Yong and others rose, but they didn't know how to speak.

"You don't have to kneel, I'll tell you now, we've thought about the answer, and you're good to go. Ye Liang's expression was cold.

The man didn't hear the deep meaning of Ye Liang's words, and thought that he was saying, tell him the answer, and he can go back to the camp on King Huaixiang's side.

Therefore, instead of restraining his attitude, he felt that Ye Liang was afraid of his threat, and nodded at Ye Liang even more arrogantly and 'appreciated': "Yes, you are a kid who knows current affairs." ”

"Know how to speak. ”

Nodding his head 'appreciation', he looked at Ye Liang and said arrogantly: "Then you say, what is the answer for you, tell Ben General, Ben will return for you." ”

Ye Liang looked at the man who looked like a superior person, and didn't put him and everyone in his eyes at all, and sneered: "Then I'll tell you, my answer is to..."

Swish...

After a pause in the words, a light sword suddenly appeared in his hand, and suddenly swung out, wrapped in the cold sword light, instantly slashing the man's neck, and said: "Soldiers send Huaixiang, step on your army, let Huaixiang King three words..."

"I'm going to disappear from the world!

He took a step forward, looked at the man with blood from his neck, his eyes wide open, and his face full of disbelief, and said word by word: "Destroy your whole house!"

"Kill you chickens and dogs!"

Swish... Tear pull...

As soon as these words fell, the light sword in Ye Liang's hand swept out again, and a sword light was swung out, splitting the man who was gradually dissipating and revealing his frightened and unwilling state from the middle.

The light sword in his hand shook, shaking off the little beads of blood, his eyes were full of red gold, and he said in shock: "The whole army listens to the order and sends troops to destroy Huaixiang!"
