Chapter 233

Of course Tang Yin would not torture Cai Youling again like Su Yelei said, and now that he thought about it, what he had just done was indeed a bit too much. He felt sorry in his heart, but he felt that there was no need to express these thoughts to Su Ye Read the full text of Lei's explanation. He frowned and said, "You leave, but she stays. This is an order!"

"If you don't let me take her away, I won't leave either!" Su Yelei said forcefully without giving in.

"You dare to resist the order?" Tang Yin frowned, took a step forward, and approached Su Yelei.

Su Yelei showed no fear at all. Instead of retreating, she straightened her chest, met Tang Yin's sharp gaze, and said, "No matter what, I will never leave her here alone!"

Tang Yin gritted his teeth in anger, but he had nothing to do with the stubborn Su Yelei. The two of them had an argument when they first met. At that time, Tang Yin was already aware of her stubbornness. Now that they were facing each other again, Tang Yin really didn't know what to do with her.

Just when he and Su Yelei were facing each other tit for tat, and no one was willing to give in, Cai Youling, who accidentally turned behind Su Yelei, twitched the corner of his mouth. Tang Yin was so smart, even one of his eyelashes was empty when he saw it. She realized that Cai Youling was not as weak as she appeared on the surface. Maybe she was enjoying the quarrel between herself and Su Yelei over her with the mentality of watching a good show!

Cai Youling's reaction was also very fast. When she saw Tang Yin staring at her with naked eyes, she immediately showed a pitiful look and grabbed Su Yelei's clothes tighter.

This woman is very cunning, and her ability to put on pretense is superb! Tang Yin saw this and sneered in his heart. He nodded towards Su Yelei and said, "Okay! You can take her away, but I don't worry about her being alone with you. She must be followed by guards!"

Su Yelei did not see the subtle change in Cai Youling's expression. Now she was only thinking about saving her from the tiger's mouth. When Tang Yin softened his words, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart and nodded: "Of course!"

Tang Yin called the guard captain closer and asked him to lead his guards to follow Su Yelei and Cai Youling, and to strictly monitor the latter. After the explanation, he looked at Cai Youling again, raised the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Don't make any crooked ideas. Jinhua City is now an iron wall. Even if you put on wings, you can't fly out!"

Under his sharp gaze, Cai Youling could not help but tremble.

She was born into a noble family and had met many dignitaries, princes and ministers, but no one had ever given her the feeling of fear, including Prince Ning, and Tang Yin was the first one. In front of Tang Yin, it seemed that every detail of his thoughts could be seen through by him. It was as if he was standing naked in front of him, but he was not aware of Tang Yin's thoughts at all. He only felt that he was moody and his temperament was unpredictable. It’s hard to fathom.

At this time, she had a vague premonition that Tang Yin, the first man in her life, would definitely become Ning Guo's biggest enemy in the future.

Su Yelei took Cai Youling away with "I felt sorry for him", and a large number of guards followed. The entire tent suddenly became empty and unusually quiet.

Tang Yin sighed softly and lay on the bed fully clothed. Although Cai Youling had left, her fragrance still lingered between the quilts. She couldn't figure out Tang Yin, and in fact Tang Yin couldn't figure her out either. He had never seen a woman as smart and scheming as Cai Youling, nor had he seen a woman as fickle as her.

Tang Yin was also full of interest and curiosity about Cai Youling.

The next day, early in the morning, the south gate of Jinhua City opened, and a horse galloped out from inside. The wind soldier on the horse was holding a spear, with two bloody human heads attached to the end of the spear. He urged the horse forward, and soon he As they approached the gate of the south camp of the Ning Army, they felt that they would be shot by the opponent's arrows if they moved forward. The Feng soldiers pulled back the reins, reined in the horses, slammed the spears in their hands to the ground, and then charged at the Ning Army. The camp shouted loudly: "Listen, Ning Bing, you, general, have broken your word. This is a gift from my master to your general. If you don't keep your promise, prepare to take the heads of the other two!"

After speaking, the wind soldier didn't stop for a moment, turned his horse's head and galloped back to his city.

After he left, the camp gate of Ning camp opened, and a group of men and horses rushed out from it. They quickly ran to the front of the two armies. When they looked at the spears stuck on the ground, the faces of the Ning soldiers also changed, and they did not dare to delay. , someone hurriedly stepped forward, pulled out the spear, and ran back holding two human heads.

Soon, the two heads of Feng Yuze and Jin Lei were delivered to Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Wudi.

Seeing these two heads and having their subordinates confirm their identities, Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Wudi were dumbfounded. Jin Lei was the son of Lieutenant General Jin Huan, and Feng Yuze was the nobler son of Taifu Feng Cheng. These two were killed. There were no corpses and only two heads were sent. If this news was spread back to Liangzhou , the repercussions can be imagined.

The two Zhan brothers sat on the mat and were speechless for a long time. The soldiers below who came to report the news bravely said: "General...general, the person who came...said that if the general continues to break his promise, they...they will send him again." Take the heads of the other two prisoners..."

"Snapped!"

Before the soldier could finish his words, Zhan Wudi slammed the table with such force that he even broke the wooden table into two pieces. The things on the table were scattered all over the floor. He stood up and roared: "Tang Yin It's too much to bully, and it makes me angry!" As he said that, he turned to look at Zhan Wushuang and asked, "Brother, what should I do now?"

what to do? What else can be done? Zhan Wushuang rubbed his aching forehead and smiled, but his smile was full of bitterness. He shook his head and said: "Withdraw... withdraw the troops!"

"Brother!"

"The sons of two ministers have already died. This matter is no small matter. If Miss Youling and Cuiling are killed again, then the career path of you and me, brothers..." has come to an end! It's just that he couldn't say the next half of the sentence in public, so he just shook his head slightly.

There was no more fighting between the two armies. The delivery of the two heads completely destroyed Zhan Wushuang's confidence in continuing the confrontation. In desperation, he ordered the entire army to withdraw from Jinguang County and retreat to Lehu County before setting up camp. .

The Ning army packed up their camp and made great efforts all night. It was originally just to show off and confuse the Feng army, but their efforts really came in handy. The retreat of the 400,000-strong army was completed in just one morning. Under the command of Zhan Wushuang, they retreated southward in an orderly and orderly manner.

Seeing a large number of Ning troops evacuating the camp, the huge circular camp was empty, leaving only the fences outside the camp and some scattered debris. The Feng Jun on guard on the tower jumped up in excitement and hurriedly ran down the tower. While delivering a message to the city, he shouted excitedly: "Ning's army has withdrawn! Ning's army has really withdrawn!"

After hearing the shouts, the Fengjun soldiers put down their work and rushed to the top of the city. They lay on the arrow stacks and looked outside. The Ningjun camp outside the city was almost evacuated. Suddenly, the top of Jinhua City burst into cheers. Countless wind troops stood on the arrow stacks, waving their weapons and shouting at Ning Ying.

Soon, the news also reached Tang Yin. When he heard that Ning's army had really withdrawn, Tang Yin was extremely excited. He didn't even wear armor and ran to the top of the city in casual clothes. Seeing Tang Yin coming, the soldiers of the Feng Army, who were excited and excited, stood in line and shouted in unison: "My lord is mighty, the wind is mighty! My lord is mighty, the wind is mighty -"

The shouts were loud and continuous, echoing in the air for a long time.

Tang Yin suppressed the excitement in his heart, walked through the crowd, and quickly arrived in front of the city. He looked around at the enemy camp outside, and his face finally showed joy. He looked up to the sky with a long smile, and proudly said: "Ning of four hundred thousand." The army is nothing more than that. In my eyes, it’s just a piece of trash!”

Hearing Tang Yin's words, the morale of the surrounding soldiers became even higher. They all pulled their necks and shouted: "My lord is mighty, your lord is mighty -"

In fact, the battle in Jinhua City was only relatively difficult in the first two days. There were basically no large-scale battles in the following days. Even in the first two most difficult days, the Ning army did not use its full strength. One time, 100,000 people attacked. The city was attacked by 200,000 people at a time. It was not that the Ning army underestimated the enemy, but that the Ning army was unable to launch a fierce attack with the entire army.

In order to destroy Ning's army's siege equipment, Tang Yin destroyed Ning's logistics troops in one fell swoop. This had a great impact on the entire war situation. Not only did Ning's army lose its weapon for siege, but it also caused the Ning army's camp to be short of food and grass. One point was the most fatal to Ning's army. There was not enough food and grass, so Zhan Wushuang was worried and did not dare to use all his strength easily. He was unable to mobilize the entire army to attack the city, which also resulted in limited siege manpower and the delay in capturing the city. This became the main reason why Ning Jun finally had no choice but to retreat.

As the saying goes, the cause of unintentional intervention was Tang Yin's original risky move, which became the key to the success or failure of both parties.

Until now, Tang Yin believed that the retreat of the Ning Army was due to the hostage Cai Youling in his hands, but he did not expect that another main reason for the retreat of the Ning Army was the lack of food and grass.

At this point, the battle in Jinhua City between the Tianyuan Army headed by Tang Yin and the Ning Army headed by Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Wudi came to an end.

Both sides suffered casualties in this battle. The Tianyuan Army's casualties were more than 30,000, while the Ning Army's casualties were close to 40,000. Both sides were evenly matched, and no one took advantage. However, the Ning Army's path to reinforce Zhong Wen was blocked by Tang Yin. The group was tightly sealed, which was a devastating blow to the Central Army headed by Zhong Wen.

The Tianyuan Army of more than 300,000 people trapped the Central Army of more than 100,000 people in the camp. It was okay for a short time, but as time went by, not only food and grass were in short supply, but the mood of the soldiers below also became increasingly anxious, and the panic was like the plague. It spread rapidly and could not be suppressed even if they wanted to. People became increasingly dissatisfied with Zhong Wen's strategy of only defending but not attacking and waiting for death.
