Shangguan Xiu and the others were stationed in Wanyuan Valley for ten days, and the main force of the Zhenjun army finally arrived in Wanyuan Valley. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Ningnan army stationed on the east side of the Wanyuan Valley also planned to resist, after all, the valley was narrow, and the wind army could not pass through, and the Ningnan army had a chance to drag the wind army here.

However, to the surprise of the Ningnan Army, a wind army suddenly came behind them, the tenth army of the Wind Country led by Nie Zhen.

Nie Zhen led the army out of the customs, but he did not inform the imperial court of his unauthorized actions. Since Shangguan Xiu led the army into Ningnan, Nie Zhen and Ziyi Lingjiang Leopard have been paying attention to the situation in Ningnan.

The successes of the Zhenjun army in the early stage made them happy, but the passivity in the later stage was surrounded and intercepted by the Ningnan army, which made them worried.

Knowing that Shangguan Xiu had been trapped in Wanyuan Valley for many days, and his life and death were unknown, Nie Zhen couldn't hold back any longer, led the Tenth Legion, resolutely went out of the pass, and inserted into Ansai County in Ningnan with lightning speed, and suddenly appeared from behind the Ningnan Army.

The 10th Army Corps is a light cavalry corps, 100,000 cavalry, as if falling from the sky, with a thunderous momentum, tore through the defense line of the Ningnan Army's camp, and almost flattened the Ningnan Army's camp of 40,000 people in a moment's time.

How could the Zhenjun army miss this opportunity, the army took the opportunity to pass through the Wanyuan Valley and besiege the remnants of the Ningnan Army that were scattered by the 10th Army.

In the front and rear of the 10th Army and the main force of the Zhenjun Army, the Ningnan Army, which was only about 40,000 people, was defeated, and Chiheng saw that he was powerless to return to the sky, and there was no possibility of reversing the overall situation, so he led a remnant of the army, fled in a hurry, and finally picked up a life. heiyaпge

When the soldiers of the Wind Army climbed the peaks on both sides of the Wanyuan Valley, they saw the sight of white bones everywhere.

It was only ten days, and it was impossible for the corpse to decompose to such an extent, and the only explanation was that the flesh and skin of the corpse had been cut off. There is no need to inquire carefully, just look at this situation and this scene, and people can understand it in their hearts.

Seeing Meng Qiuchen climbing up from Nanling, Shangguan Xiu hadn't spoken yet, Xiao Jue had already strode forward from behind him, and without saying a word, he punched him in the face.

Meng Qiuchen was beaten to the ground on the spot, Xiao refused to return his hand and was about to draw the knife, Shangguan Xiu stepped forward, grabbed his wrist, and shook his head slightly.

Xiao Jue really hated Meng Qiuchen to the extreme at this time, he said that it would be three days, but it turned out that it would take ten days to arrive, and the torment they suffered during this period was unimaginable to others, just thinking about it, he felt his scalp tingle. Xiao Jue was so angry that his body trembled, his teeth rattled, and the fierce light in his eyes seemed to eat people.

He said in a condensed voice: "Brother Xiu, don't stop me, I'll kill this Ningnan villain!"

At this time, Luo Ren Zhan Xiong, Hu Chong, An Yifu, and the generals also ran forward one after another, and helped Meng Qiuchen, who was sitting on the ground, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, up, and then everyone bowed to Shangguan Xiu in unison.

Luo Ren explained: "Brother Xiu, the reason why we failed to arrive in Wanyuan Valley as promised this time is really not the responsibility of the military division. Soon after Brother Xiu led the army to leave, the main force of our army was caught up by the Third and Fifth Army Corps in Ningnan, and he could only be forced to fight with one of them...... "He told Shangguan Xiu about the battles that happened during this time.

Shangguan Xiu's expression was calm, and after listening, he only nodded slightly, didn't say anything more, his eyes turned, he looked at Meng Qiuchen, and asked softly: "Is the military advisor okay?" ”

His words were polite, but distant.

Although he had been tormented in Wanyuan Valley for ten days, he had never blamed Meng Qiuchen. Shangguan Xiu knew in his heart that his army had not arrived for a long time, and he must have been dragged back, if it was really Meng Qiuchen who wanted to secretly make trouble and deliberately harm him, Luo Ren Zhan Xiong and other brothers would not agree.

In the Zhenjun Army, although Meng Qiuchen is a military advisor, he is far from reaching the point of covering the sky with one hand, and the generals of Luo Ren Zhan Xiong cannot trust and convince him, as long as there is a slight deviation in his command, it will inevitably attract the dissatisfaction of the soldiers, and even murderous intentions.

Meng Qiuchen smiled bitterly, he first licked the blood at the corner of his mouth, then put his finger into his mouth, pulled it out violently, and pinched out a broken tooth between his fingers. He spat out two mouthfuls of blood, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth indiscriminately, bowed to Shangguan Xiu, and said: "General Xiao's punch is what I deserve! Putting the adult in danger for ten days is not only my miscalculation, but also my dereliction of duty, and I ask the adult to condemn the crime!"

Shangguan Xiu didn't blame Meng Qiuchen, but now he really doesn't like him. He glanced at Meng Qiuchen deeply, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "The military advisor is right, ensuring the safety of the main army is more important than ensuring my safety." Wanyuan Valley only has 6,000 lives, which is insignificant compared to the lives of more than 200,000 brothers. ”

At present, the total strength of the Zhenjun army is less than 300,000, including many seriously wounded and lightly wounded soldiers, and the combat strength is at best 200,000. From the outbreak of the Second National War to the present, more than 100,000 soldiers of the Zhenjun Army have been buried in Ningnan.

Shangguan Xiu's words were serious and righteous, but in the ears of everyone present, everyone was red-faced and red-eared, and they hung their heads one after another.

Meng Qiuchen knew in his heart that Shangguan Xiu's appreciation at this time was not a reproach, even if he didn't say it, he would definitely have a mustard in his heart.

However, he didn't explain much, if Shangguan Xiu was an open-minded person, the mustard would naturally disappear slowly, and if Shangguan Xiu was narrow-minded, it would be useless to explain more.

Just when the atmosphere at the scene was paradoxical and embarrassing, Nie Zhen, who was dressed in golden helmets and golden armor, strode up from the hillside, and when he saw Shangguan Xiu, he called out loudly in surprise and joy: "Ah Xiu!"

Seeing Nie Zhen, the smile on Shangguan Xiu's face deepened, and he became much more sincere. He asked in surprise, "Ah Zhen, why are you here? Did the imperial court send you?"

He did send a letter to the imperial court and asked Ying to go to war, but after the song was sent out, it sank into the sea, and there was no response. He came to Shangguan Xiu's approach, grinned, and said with a smile: "I sent myself to pick you up!"

His understatement moved Shangguan Xiu's heart.

Without the instructions of the imperial court, leading the army to go out without authorization is a capital crime of losing the head. If you leave your post without permission and don't listen to the dispatch to lead your troops to collaborate with the enemy, the court will place a crime at will, which is enough to make the Nie family beheaded.

What a risk did Nie Zhen take when he came to pick him up, and how could Shangguan Xiu not be moved?

Looking at Nie Zhen with a smile on his face, Shangguan Xiu didn't know whether he should scold him or hug him. He took a deep breath and punched Nie Zhen the shoulder, and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Stupid." ”

Nie Zhen laughed out loud nonchalantly, hugged Shangguan Xiu, and said word by word: "Ah Xiu, I'll pick you up and return to China!"

Shangguan Xiu, who had been trapped in Wanyuan Valley for ten days, and thousands of soldiers under his command finally got out of trouble, and the Zhenjun Army and the Tenth Army gathered together and returned to the Wind Country together.

On the way home, from time to time, groups of Fengguo rebels joined the ranks of the army, carrying the looted booty, and happily followed the army back to the country.

In the barracks, in order to celebrate the safe return of Shangguan Xiu and others, the generals of Zhenjun County also specially arranged a sumptuous banquet for Shangguan Xiu and others.

Looking at the delicacies on the table and smelling the smell of meat, Guangfang Duan Qiyue Xiao Jue Wu Yufei and others all reacted in the same way, covering their mouths, and rushed to the outside of the camp tent together, and the sound of vomiting from everyone came back from time to time.

Shangguan Xiu was as steady as Mount Tai in his seat, holding chopsticks and eating unhurriedly. If you look closely, you can see that his face is slightly pale, and his chopsticks only go to pick up the greens, and he doesn't touch the meat dishes.

Five days later, the Zhenjun Army and the 10th Army withdrew to the territory of the Wind Country, and with the return of the Zhenjun Army, the second national war between the two countries of Fengning was basically over, and then, the civil rebels of the Wind Country withdrew to the country one after another.

This national war can be said to be a long march of the Zhenjun army in Ningnan. The Zhenjun army entered from the southeast of Ningnan, moved to the west of Ningnan, and went north from the west of Ningnan, and finally returned to China from the northeast of Ningnan, passing through more than ten counties in Ningnan, and successively fought with the eighth, sixteenth, sixteenth, thirteenth, fifth, seventh, and ninth legions of the Ningnan Central Army, and killed more than 100,000 soldiers and tens of thousands of lightly and seriously wounded soldiers, and the record was to completely annihilate the enemy's eighth and eleventh legions, severely damage the sixth legion, scare away the thirteenth legion, repel the third and fifth legions, and defeat the front army of the seventh and ninth legions. In addition, there are a series of glorious achievements such as destroying the newly discovered spiritual spring in Ningnan, sacking the treasury set up in Amy City in Ningnan, and killing the light cavalry outside Tianjing City.

In the Second National War, the Zhenjun Army became a well-deserved protagonist, in the territory of Ningnan, as if in a no-man's land, come and go freely, showing extraordinary military quality and combat effectiveness.

This battle is also a battle to change the national strength of the Wind Country and Ningnan. In the second national war, the central army in Ningnan suffered a lot of losses, but it did not hurt the vitality, what really hurt the vitality of Ningnan was the destruction of the Zhenjun army in Ningnan, as well as the looting of the treasury in the western part of Ningnan, as well as the large-scale invasion of the rebel army of the Feng people, these three points left an indelible wound on Ningnan.

If it is said that before the Second National War, Ningnan's national strength was slightly stronger than that of the Wind Country, then after the Second National War, Ningnan's national strength has been greatly consumed, and it will lag behind the Wind Country, and more importantly, the Second National War made the Ningnan Imperial Court see a little clearly, Ningnan wants to destroy the Wind Country, which is far more difficult than the Wind Country to destroy Ningnan.

Ningnan and Fengguo are like snakes and elephants, when the elephants are weak, the snakes can bite the elephants proudly, but if they want to swallow the elephants, it is impossible, they will only burst their belly first.

This battle made both the Ningnan people and the Ningnan court deeply remember the Zhenjun Army, and even more deeply remember the name of Shangguanxiu. Shangguan Xiu went from being a nobody to becoming the number one national enemy in Ningnan, and the people of Ningnan were even more afraid of Shangguan Xiu than they were against Tang Ling.

The nickname 'Wind Ghost' also spread in Ningnan, and most of the descriptions of Shangguan Xiu were too tall, with white hair and red eyes, and a fierce appearance, like a ghost, and a good cannibal......
