Chapter 643: Incredible (2nd Update)
Southern Chu suffered heavy casualties, and Great Wei was not far behind this time, and also suffered heavy casualties.
Nangong Zheng led people to retreat to the rear, and after being bandaged by others, he knelt on one knee and pleaded guilty to Yuan Zhao, the prince of Great Wei. He assured Yuan Zhao that he must protect the four siege guns today, but he didn't do it, and let people destroy the siege artillery, although the last two siege guns were destroyed by the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the hands of Dawei's own people, but he also has a responsibility that he can't shirk.
Helan decided not to target Nangong Zheng this time, but knelt down with him with a white face and pleaded guilty, "Please punish His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
He is inferior to Nangong Zheng today, he has long been affected by the sound of the piano torn apart on the wall of Heiya Pass, and he has a splitting headache, so he can only be stronger than ordinary soldiers, and he barely stands firm with a knife, but he doesn't even have the strength to kill the enemy. As soon as he moved, the sound of the piano penetrated his eardrums, making his eardrums seem to be torn apart.
Nangong Zheng can still take the secret guards of the Nangong family to fight, but he is a general, but he can't do it, he can keep himself from falling, and he has exhausted all his strength.
If someone told him before, Qin Yin could kill people, he didn't believe it, but he didn't expect that now he has really seen it.
Xie Yuan's music, although it can't kill people, it makes people hurt their minds.
Yuan Zhao looked at the two of them for a long time, and raised his hand to let the two of them get up, "You get up, this king doesn't blame you." ”
Nangong Zheng raised his head and looked at Yuan Zhao.
Yuan Zhao said with a calm face: "Even if this king leads people to attack the city today, he can't do better than you." Rise up! ”
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie." Nangong Zheng stood up.
Helan was very ashamed, "Your Highness, the ministers are incompetent, and today's battlefield has no effect at all." ”
"Get up, this king said it's not to blame, it's just not to blame." Yuan Zhao waved his hand.
Helan also thanked him and stood up.
Yuan Zhao motioned for the two of them to sit, "This king didn't expect that in the Southern Chu military camp, there were several people who could play this unheard of song like Xie Yuan, and they could use it for us a second time." I didn't expect that a large number of masters suddenly came to Nanchu to join the battle, and also tried in vain to seize the king's siege artillery. ”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Nangong Zheng with appreciation, "I was able to receive this king's order in time, and I did an excellent job of destroying the siege artillery with people without hesitation." ”
Nangong Zheng also expressed regret, "It's a pity that His Highness's six siege cannons were all destroyed." ”
"It's a pity to destroy it, it can be rebuilt, if it falls into the hands of Su Rong and is taken by Nan Chu for research, it will be over." Although Yuan Zhao was also very heartbroken, thinking about the situation at that time, he didn't feel a pity, at least he didn't get it for Nan Chu.
Helan asked, "Who are those people who suddenly came to save Su Rong today?" Could it be the master sent by the Great Liang Prince Yan Echo? ”
"No, it's someone from the Daliang Qinghe Cui family." Yuan Zhao said: "One of them, this king has seen his portrait, and he is the most respected grandson of the Cui family in Qinghe, called Cui Xingzhi. ”
"It turns out that he is Cui Xingzhi, I know him." Nangong Zheng said: "Grandfather once mentioned it to me, but I didn't expect him to come to Nanchu. ”
"Well, I really didn't expect that the patriarch of the Qinghe Cui clan would make such a determination, and in order to support Su Rong, he sent his most valued and promising grandson to Nanchu to help." Yuan Zhao said: "It can be seen that Cui Gong of the Cui clan in Qinghe attaches great importance to his own grandson Zhou Gu. ”
Nangong Zheng pondered for a moment and pursed his lips, "Qinghe Cui's family has been going downhill over the years, even if Cui Gong is quite talented, but it is difficult for one person to save the decline of Qinghe Cui's family, he has not been camped in the court in recent years, but has kept a low profile with the Protector's Mansion, it is said that the plan is to wait for the prince of Daliang to ascend the throne, and through Zhou Gu, pull up the Cui family that has a tendency to fall, but now Zhou Gu is chasing Su Rong to Nanchu to be the prince, so his plan is difficult to guarantee that it will not be changed to let the Qinghe Cui family settle in Nanchu to break into the world. ”
Helan was incredulous, "This can't be, right?" Who in the world doesn't know the Cui family? Hundreds of years of family members, big trees with deep roots, how can they easily move? That is, to help Zhou Gu and Su Rong. ”
Yuan Zhao glanced at Helan and shook his head, "There is nothing immutable in the world, if the Qinghe Cui clan is divided, although it is incredible, it is not impossible to do." This king never underestimates anyone, and Cui Gong of the Cui clan in Qinghe is a person with such courage. ”
Helan froze, still thinking it was incredible.
Nangong Zheng saw that Yuan Zhao admitted his statement, and continued: "If it is true as I guessed, then we must take the Black Cliff Pass as soon as possible, once the war is deadlocked, it will be most disadvantageous to us. Cui Gong has such courage, so what about the Protector Mansion of Daliang? If the old protector knew the current situation in Nanchu, would he send a large number of help for his grandson? There is also the echo of the Great Liang Prince Yan, who will definitely not let Nanchu fall into our hands, and may send reinforcements. ”
Yuan Zhao nodded, "That's the truth." ”
He raised his eyebrows, "Rest today, tomorrow Luo Yan should also wake up and continue to attack the city." ”
If it weren't for Luo Yan's serious injuries and coma yesterday, and with her today, she would have been able to kill Su Rong a long time ago, and she would not have waited for someone to save her.
Cui Xingzhi, who was discussed by Yuan Zhao, Nangong Zheng, and Helan Duel, was busy with his feet not touching the ground at this time, as Zhou Gu said, in the Black Cliff Pass, there is no one who can stand in charge of the general. In addition to Su Rong, Zhou Gu, Ye Guixue, Xie Yuan, Feng Ling, Jiang Zhu and others who were unconscious, Zhang Mao and Ning Ze were also injured in the inner mansion and had already fainted after vomiting blood. There is only one Zhang Yun, who has lost too much blood and has a pale face, and he is still supporting, making people look at him as if he is about to fall down at any time.
Cui Xingyi took over such a heavy burden when he was one, no matter how talented he was, he had never dealt with military affairs, he learned the hundred schools of thought, the six arts of the gentleman, Mr. taught the strategy of governing the country, the people's livelihood to help the world, in the face of such a post-war deployment, there was a feeling of no way to start, Zhang Yun swallowed a large handful of medicine, supported, and explained everything to him.
Cui Xing's people were smart, and after an hour, they had already started and hurriedly ordered someone to send Zhang Yun back to treat his injuries and rest.
Zhang Yun also knew that he couldn't hold it anymore, so he no longer insisted, fainted relaxedly, and was sent back.
Cui Xingzhi was busy until late at night, and then he was busy with everything, and the close guard Moshu reminded him, "Childe, here send someone to keep an eye on the city, you go back to the house to drink saliva, have a mouthful of food, and rest,"
Cui Xingzhi shook his head and rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, "Just find a place nearby, and I'll rest for a while." ”
He really didn't expect that the situation in Nanchu had reached this point, and he had thought of the worst plan, but the princess and her cousin were forced by the Nangong family to be constrained everywhere, and they were frequently assassinated. Who would have thought that Great Wei would quietly mobilize 800,000 soldiers and horses to attack Southern Chu, or the prince of Great Wei Yuan Zhao personally led the troops.
