Three days later, as Ma Yu expected, the Li Yuan army on the side of Yanzhao Pass sent someone to send back the exact news, saying that under the personal leadership of Li Yuan, the leader of the Tongtian Sect, the two major armies of the blue wolf and grizzly bear finally succeeded in capturing Yanzhao Pass on the seventeenth day after launching the general attack.

Xiahou Feiyang fled back to Black Dragon City in panic with the remnants of the defeated army after the loss of Yanzhao Pass, and Li Yuan's two major armies only rested for one day at Yanzhao Pass, and then continued to wave their troops north, it seems that they want to take advantage of the victory to pursue, hoping to sweep the entire north in one fell swoop.

After the news came, all the generals of the Songhu Legion admired Ma Yu for being like a god, and at the same time, they were also a little worried that since Yan Zhaoguan had fallen into Li Yuan's hands, even if Shi Ziling immediately led the army to rush there, I was afraid that it would be too late. Yanzhao Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, although Shiziling's Songhu Army is brave, but it is extremely difficult to capture Yanzhao Pass in a short period of time to rescue Xiahou Yuan.

Ma Yu was not worried about this, he said to everyone: "Don't worry, what we have to do now is to take a good rest and make every effort to block the news of the loss of Mijing City." Although Li Yuan captured Yanzhao Pass this time, the price paid must be very heavy, and a large amount of supplies and support will be needed. ”

"As long as we change the banner of the defenders of Mijing City and pretend to be reinforcements to the front line to deliver supplies, I believe it will be easy to infiltrate Yanzhao Pass. At that time, Li Yuan had already led a large group of men and horses to pursue Xiahou Feiyang, and Yan Zhao Pass would be relatively empty in the future, and it should not be difficult for us to take the opportunity to take Yan Zhao Pass. ”

The generals were all in high spirits when they heard Ma Yu say this, and Yu Wei shouted: "It would be nice if it was as easy as you said, I'm afraid that the news of our capture of Mijing City will eventually spread to the front, if Li Yuan has been prepared, with our little strength, I am afraid that it will be very difficult to storm Yanzhao Pass." ”

Ma Yu said: "I heard General Yin Qi say that he had already closed the north gate, and Li Yan, the city guard here, thought that it was only a small group of bandits who entered the city to make trouble, and did not send a messenger to report to Li Yuan in time. ”

After Ziling took Mijing City, in addition to completely blocking the road to the north, the Lenglong and Lenghu brothers immediately killed all the carrier pigeons in the military camp and the official office in the city. Under multiple controls, I believe that the news of our takeover of Mijing City has not been leaked out for the time being. ”

Yu Wei muttered: "We have let go of so many defenders from the East Gate in the past few days, it is difficult to guarantee that there are no diehards of Li Yuan among these people, maybe they will try their best to inform Li Yuan of the news of the loss of Mijing City, according to me, it will be relieved to kill them all." ”

It was Shi Ziling's decision to let go of this group of defenders, although many generals in the Songhu Army felt that something was wrong, but no one dared to disobey Shi Ziling's order, and only Yu Wei dared to complain in front of Shi Ziling, while Yin Qi and other generals frowned when they heard it.

Shi Ziling lowered his face and said to Yu Wei: "You just know that you can kill and kill those 30,000 defenders to ensure that the news will not leak out? Don't forget that this is Mijing City, Li Yuan's lair, so many people in the city must also be killed? Blindly killing can only arouse more hatred and fear, and it is impossible to win the heartfelt support of the people!"

Yu Wei just complained casually because he was worried about leaking the news, but he was not really a murderer, and when he saw Shi Ziling's face reprimanding, he immediately lowered his head and stopped talking.

Ma Yu knocked on Yu Wei's shoulder with the paper fan in his hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there must be a tough battle to fight next, and you have the opportunity to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions." ”

Yu Wei said in a low voice: "I'm just worried that leaking the news will not be conducive to our next move, and I don't really want to kill, and I can't just talk about it?"

Shi Ziling Zhengse said: "Some things are not enough to say casually! Our Songhu Legion does not have many troops, and if we want to stand undefeated in this troubled era, we must not only have outstanding tactical and martial arts strength, but also rely on a righteous spirit to condense and maintain the combat strength of the legion, and we must not use bloodthirsty slaughter to show off our prestige, otherwise it will inevitably attract the resistance and condemnation of the people of the world." ”

The generals were all thoughtful when they heard Shi Ziling's words, and most of them also felt a little inappropriate to let go of the 30,000 defenders, feeling that Shi Ziling was a little too merciful to the enemy and not ruthless enough.

Now that they heard Shi Ziling's words, everyone's hearts were touched, and they realized that Shi Ziling's decision to release people was not just a woman's kindness, but actually more beneficial than disadvantageous to maintaining the prestige and combat strength of the legion. Everyone couldn't help nodding secretly, and they sincerely admired the coach Shi Ziling.

Shi Ziling said to Yu Wei: "If you like to kill people so much, when we capture Yanzhao Pass, I will send you to be the vanguard officer of the main attack on Li Yuan's army, and let you kill it when the time comes!"

Yu Wei was taken aback, although he wanted to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, he also knew that he had a few catties and taels, and if he was to be the vanguard officer of the main attack on Li Yuan's army, he was afraid that it would be more than lucky, so he immediately waved his hand again and again:

"I ...... I'm just worried about leaking the news and complaining, and I don't really want to go on a killing spree, I can't do it if I'm wrong! The vanguard officer who mainly attacked Li Yuan's army, you still let Ma Yu do it, I don't have that ability!"

Ma Yu was so angry that he raised the fan in his hand and knocked it heavily on Yu Wei's head, and said, "How can I be a pioneer officer as a chief counselor and military advisor?

Yu Wei hugged his big head and screamed: "I think you are more capable than me to be kind enough to recommend you! If you don't do it, you won't do it well, can you hit me on the head so hard? It hurts me to death......

Most of the people in the legion knew that Yu Wei was a living treasure, and when they saw him embarrassed, they all laughed, and the atmosphere was quite lively for a while. At this moment, a subordinate came in and told him that a large group of men and horses were advancing towards the east gate.

Ma Yu slapped the folding fan into his hand and said happily: "It should be Nangong Xia's Narcissus Legion that has arrived! This old fox, his men and horses should have arrived in Mijing City before us, but it turned out to be three days later than us! Nangong Xia must have wanted our Songhu Legion to fight a vicious battle with the defenders of Mijing City before coming out to pick up the cheap, so as to preserve the strength of their Narcissus Legion." ”

Shi Ziling said with a smile: "Everyone is an ally now, so don't worry so much." Nangong Xia is willing to let us take advantage of the sneak attack this time, and he also personally led 50,000 elite soldiers to help later, it is already very good, he wants to save a little strength and let us take the lead, anyway, we don't have many casualties when we take Mijing City this time. ”

Yu Wei shouted: "It's okay now! As soon as Nangong Xia's people arrive, our Songhu Legion can rest assured that they will go to Yanzhao Pass! As long as we are on the road, we don't have to worry about the news of the capture of Mijing City leaking all day long, if we can successfully take Yanzhao Pass, this expedition will be half successful......

All the generals are in good spirits, as Yu Wei said, as long as they embark on the road to Yanzhao Pass, it is not so important whether the news of the capture of Mijing City leaks or not. Everyone believed that with the marching speed of the Songhu Legion, coupled with Ma Yu's clever plan to change his disguise, he would definitely be able to attack the defenders of Yanzhao Pass by surprise.

The defenders of Yanzhao Pass may not receive the news first, and even if they receive the news, I believe they will not have much time to take precautions.

Besides, after these three days of rest, the fatigue of the Songhu Army has been fully relieved, the morale is extremely high, and all the officers and men are full of eagerness for the next move......

Nangong Xia's Narcissus Legion came to Mijing City, although two days ago, he had learned from the fast detective that the Songhu Legion had successfully captured Mijing City, but seeing the banner of the Songhu Legion fluttering at the head of the city from a distance, Nangong Xia couldn't help but praise again and again.

Nangong Jin, the head of the Nangong family, also went out with Nangong Xia with the army this time, and he said to Nangong Xia: "Lord, look at this city tower, there is no trace of a vicious battle at all, and the city gate is also intact, I really don't understand how Shiziling took Mijing City this time?"

"I heard that the spies reported that the casualties of their Songhu Legion this time were very small, and they also subdued a large number of surrendered troops, and peace had already been restored in Mijing City, Shi Ziling is really a person with unfathomable abilities!"

Nangong Xia nodded and said, "It seems that we are betting right to join forces with Shi Ziling to deal with Li Yuan this time! Shi Ziling can take Li Yuan's old nest Mijing City so easily, and the decisive battle with Li Yuan in the future has a few more chances of winning." This guy really doesn't know where Lu Dao came from, not only is he a martial arts wizard, but he is also so powerful at leading troops to fight, Li Yuan is afraid that he will be unlucky when he encounters him!"

In the midst of the conversation between the two of them, the east gate of Mijing City was opened, and Shi Ziling led his generals to welcome them.

Nangong Xia stepped forward and laughed loudly: "Good boy, I really convinced you! Your movements are really fast enough, not only did you arrive before me, but you also captured Mijing City so smoothly, you have to tell me honestly how you did it!"

Shi Ziling said with a smile: "Probably because of my luck, when I came, the city gate was wide open, and the defenders here didn't expect that anyone would dare to sneak attack Li Yuan's lair, so I easily succeeded in it." If they had been prepared, I believe that this siege would have been very difficult. ”

Although Shi Ziling said it lightly, there were sixty or seventy thousand defenders in Nangong Xia Zhilu Dao Mijing City, and Li Yuan's third brother Li Yan was stationed, even if he was not well prepared, he could capture and control the whole city so easily, and he must have experienced several vicious battles.

Nangong Xia couldn't wait to ask Shi Ziling about the siege of the city, and the two rode together and chatted while walking, and went to the city guard mansion in the city. When he heard Shi Ziling say that Xiahou Feiyang's Yan Zhao Pass had been lost, Nangong Xia was taken aback, reined in his horse and asked, "Yan Zhao Pass was lost so quickly?"
