Chapter 583

Changsun Yuanhong besieged Qingyuan and rounded off the encirclement. Tang Yin urgently recalled Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi to Jianxing.

After meeting the two of them, Tang Yin asked Ziying to tell Xiao and Liang his strategy again, and then asked them what their opinions were.

Both Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi thought Ziying's idea was a good one, but the risk was too great. Tang Yin was the monarch and the core of the Feng Kingdom. If an accident happened, the entire Feng Kingdom would be shaken. It would take several Hedong regions to make up for it. Can't. The matter was so important that Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi did not dare to express their opinions easily. Instead, they asked Tang Yindao smartly: "I wonder if the king thinks General Ziying's plan is feasible?"

The two wanted to see what Tang Yin's attitude was.

Tang Yin glanced sideways at Ziying, smiled leisurely, and said, "I haven't paid much attention to Changsun Yuanhong and the 300,000 Ningyue coalition forces."

After hearing this, Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi basically understood what Tang Yin meant. The former rolled his eyes and said: "Mo Ma Qi is extremely fast and can be called the best in the world. With Mo Ma Qi assisting the king, I don't think Ning Jun can catch up even if he wants to."

Liang Qi nodded repeatedly and responded: "What General Xiao said makes sense!"

At this time, Ziying shook his head and said hurriedly: "No! If the king and the Ning army did not fight a battle and ran away as soon as they met, wouldn't the Ning army be suspicious? And if there was a head-on confrontation with so many Ning army, the light cavalry would not only If it cannot exert its lethality, there is a risk of annihilation of the whole army, so the king must not bring light cavalry to lure the enemy. "

"General Ziying means..."

"Our army has five thousand Besa's Pabuma. Your Majesty can command five thousand heavy cavalry to fight the enemy, and then pretend to be defeated and retreat to the place where our army ambush."

Xiao Muqing said worriedly: "Your Majesty, commanding the heavy cavalry into battle, can certainly minimize losses, but Pabuma's speed is too slow..."

At this time, Tang Yin continued with a smile: "No matter how slow the Pabuma is, it will always be much faster than the infantry! And my purpose is to lure the enemy, so it is not suitable to run too fast."

Xiao Muqing still felt that Tang Yin's heavy cavalry was much more risky than light cavalry in luring the enemy, but seeing Tang Yin's insistence, he didn't say anything more.

After discussions with Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi, Tang Yin finally decided to adopt Ziying's advice and personally act as bait to lure the enemy into taking the bait. Ziying's plan cannot be said to be bad, but he made a fatal mistake on the question of whether Tang Yin should lead light cavalry or heavy cavalry, which led to chaos in the battle in Hedong and also put Tang Yin in an irreversible danger.

The place where Ziying said it was easy to set up an ambush was located one hundred and twenty miles north of Qingyuan. It was indeed covered with large and small ditches, some deep and some shallow, some wide and some narrow. Such a large open area, Let alone ambushing hundreds of thousands of people without being discovered, even if there are millions of people ambushed, nothing can be seen with a cold look.

According to Ziying's plan, he and Guyue commanded the Tianying Army and the Directly Affiliated Army to ambush here first. The five thousand heavy cavalry led by Tang Yin attacked from the west of the Ning Army. Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi commanded the Pingyuan Army and the Sanshui Army from the Ning Army. Attack on the south side, forming a pincer attack. The Ning Army will definitely use its main force to deal with Tang Yin's side. When Tang Yin feigns defeat again and retreats north, the Ning Army will definitely not give up and will pursue them with all their strength. At this time, the Pingyuan Army and the Sanshui Army will follow, and so on. Introducing the main force of the Ning Army into its own ambush circle, the Tianying Army and the Directly Affiliated Army suddenly rushed out, catching the Ning Army off guard. The Ning Army was unprepared and could only retreat. At this time, the Pingyuan Army and the Sanshui Army followed suit. Being able to cut off the Ning Army's retreat and attack the Ning Army from behind with the ambush Tianying Army and the Directly Affiliated Army, even if Changsun Yuanhong is extremely powerful, he can only end up with the entire army being annihilated.

Regarding Ziying's precise and meticulous deployment, Tang Yin, Xiao Muqing, and Liang Qi all nodded, secretly praising Ziying for his extraordinary strategy and ingenious strategy.

Everyone had no objections and acted separately according to Ziying's plan.

Ziying and Guyue took the lead and commanded the Tianying Army and the Directly Affiliated Army to detour to the north of Qingyuan to set up an ambush. Then, Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi commanded the Pingyuan Army and the Sanshui Army and marched straight to Qingyuan with great fanfare. After the main force of the entire army had left, Tang Yin began to summon 5,000 heavy cavalry to prepare to march towards Qingyuan. .

Now, there are very few generals left by Tang Yin's side. Wu Guang, Jiang Fan, and Zhan Hu have all been assigned to various armies. Letian and Ai Jia have also gone out with the army, personally commanding their spies to pass information between the armies. At this time, Tang Yin only had the Shangguan brothers and the elusive secret assassins on his side.

Tang Yin led five thousand heavy cavalry to slowly drive out of Jianxing according to the agreed time. As soon as he left the city, Tang Yin saw a large group of Fengjun soldiers gathered at the city gate. The two leaders were none other than Shangguan Yuanrang and Wuying.

Originally, Tang Yin asked Wuying to escort Shangguan Yuanrang to retreat to Xiaoxia. After all, now that his main force is out, Jianxing has no troops to defend. If he keeps the seriously injured Shangguan Yuanrang here, he is afraid of danger. Wuying did not expect that He did not take Shangguan Yuanrang away, but stayed outside the city gate waiting for him.

Shangguan Yuanrang's original arrow wound was very serious, but he is physically strong and has profound spiritual martial arts skills. In addition, after nearly two months of careful nursing, although he has not fully recovered, he has recovered to 50% to 60%. He did not ride a horse, but lay on a soft bed carried by Feng soldiers.

Seeing them, Tang Yin was stunned, urged his horse forward, and asked, "Yuan Rang, Xiaoying, why haven't you left yet?"

Wuying lowered his head and said nothing. Shangguan Yuanrang, who was lying on his side on the couch, smiled and said: "I heard that the king is going to lead five thousand brothers to attack the Ning army of 300,000. How can such a feat be possible without me, Shangguan Yuanrang?" ? I want to go on the expedition with the king!"

Tang Yin frowned immediately after hearing this. Now Yuan Rang couldn't even ride a war horse, so why would he go with him? He walked up to Shangguan Yuan Rang and whispered, "Yuan Rang, this battle is dangerous, and you are injured, so it's not appropriate for you to go with me." After that, he turned his head to look at Wu Ying and said in a deep voice, "Xiao Ying, quickly escort Yuan Rang back to Xiao Xia."

Wu Ying rode on the horse without moving, but whispered, "Wherever the king goes, I will go."

Tang Yin wondered if he had heard it wrong. Wu Ying, who always obeyed orders, actually disobeyed his orders in public. Before Tang Yin could speak, Shangguan Yuanrang burst into laughter and said, "General Wu is as brave as a man! Even General Wuying dared to follow the king to fight, how can I, Shangguan Yuanrang, be a coward hiding behind others?" After a pause, he sat up and said, "Does the king think Yuanrang can't fight? Come on, bring the horse over!"

As Shangguan Yuanrang shouted, the wind soldiers immediately led Shangguan Yuanrang's warhorse. The latter turned over on the soft couch and rolled down directly, just sitting on the saddle. Then, he picked up the three-pointed double-edged sword from the victory hook on the side of the horse, waved it casually, and smiled at Tang Yin: "Do you think I can still fight?"

Wow - seeing Shangguan Yuanrang riding a horse with a wheeled sword, the surrounding wind soldiers were all surprised and happy, and exclaimed. Shangguan Yuanrang had such power in the army. As long as people saw that he could still fight, they would have a bottom line in their hearts. This was also the prestige that Shangguan Yuanrang had won by his own efforts.

However, Tang Yin was frightened when he saw this. He hurried forward and snatched Shangguan Yuanrang's three-pointed double-edged sword. Then he said coldly, "Are you crazy?! Your wounds haven't healed yet, and you use swords and guns. What if the wounds burst?" Although Tang Yin was scolding Shangguan Yuanrang, he could also hear his love and care for Shangguan Yuanrang.

If someone else had taken his sword, Shangguan Yuanrang would have turned hostile long ago, but it was Tang Yin who took the sword. Shangguan Yuanrang just grinned, revealing two rows of small white teeth on his dark face, and said, "My king, I just proved that I can still fight!"

Alas! Tang Yin sighed secretly. It seemed that he would not give up unless he took Shangguan Yuanrang with him. After thinking for a while, he nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, Yuanrang, you will fight with me, but you don't need to do anything, just watch the battle, understand?"

Hearing that Tang Yin agreed to take him with him, Shangguan Yuanrang was overjoyed, how could he object, nodded repeatedly, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my king, Yuanrang will definitely listen to you this time." As he said that, he stepped on the stirrups with both feet, stood up on the horse, and climbed back to the soft couch.

Watching Shangguan Yuanrang return to the soft couch, Tang Yin felt a little relieved, and then his eyes fell on Wuying again, raised his head and said: "Xiaoying, Yuanrang will fight with me, you go back to Xiaoxia by yourself."

"I won't go back."

"What?" Tang Yin raised his eyebrows.

"I won't go back, I also want to fight with the king!" Wuying said firmly.

"You must go to Xiaoxia, this is an order." Tang Yin said word by word. He dared to take Shangguan Yuanrang with him, but he really didn't dare to take Wuying with him. Fighting with so many enemy troops, he couldn't protect himself, so how could he have the energy to take care of her? What if Wuying got lost? When he returned to Yancheng, how could he face Wumei?

This time, Wuying's attitude was surprisingly firm. She met Tang Yin's sharp eyes without fear and said, "Even if the king executes me for disobeying the king's order, I will not leave. The king either kills me or takes me to fight!"

Tang Yin was speechless. He stared at Wuying for a long time, then waved his hand in annoyance, and said in a cold tone, "You can go if you want, but I have to remind you that life and death on the battlefield is determined by God. I don't have time to take care of you!" After speaking, he urged the warhorse and walked out.

Looking at Tang Yin's back as he urged his horse to go, Wuying felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart, and her eyes gradually became red. At this time, Shangguan Yuanrang ordered the soldiers to carry the soft couch next to Wuying, then stretched his neck and said with a smile: "General Wuying, don't take the king's words seriously, he is just talking, if you don't believe it, you can try it on the battlefield."

"Try what?" Wuying asked subconsciously.

Shangguan Yuanrang leaned on his head with one hand and held his nose with the other, and said calmly: "If you are in danger, the king will definitely save you faster than anyone else."

Puff! After hearing this, Wuying couldn't help laughing, and the haze on her face instantly disappeared a lot.
