Chapter 596
Tang Yin's secret envoys sent to the west of Ning State in advance were effective. When they arrived at the countries surrounding Yue State, they met with the kings of each country. They first presented the prepared meeting gifts, and then explained that the Yue State cavalry had entered Hedong to fight. Requesting the monarchs of various countries to send troops to the Yue Kingdom, the envoys also promised that as long as they could recapture the territory occupied by the Yue Kingdom, Tang Yin, the monarch of the Feng Kingdom, would also give them more gold and silver jewelry TXT download.
The territory of the Yue Kingdom was originally obtained from the neighboring countries. All countries hated the Yue Kingdom. It was just that they were afraid of the bravery of the Yue Kingdom's cavalry, so they did not dare to go to war rashly. Now I heard that the Yue Kingdom The cavalry has penetrated deep into the territory of Ning State and helped Ning State fight the war. They have no worries. What's more, they have legitimately regained the lost territory, and they have the funding of Feng State. This is simply a pie falling from the sky.
The envoys from Feng State went to the five countries surrounding Yue State separately. The monarchs of the five countries, without exception, all agreed to send troops to Yue State. None of these five countries is a powerful country, and each country has a small army. However, if the five countries send troops at the same time, their strength cannot be underestimated. In addition, the cavalry of the Yue Kingdom is abroad, so their combat effectiveness is sharply reduced, and they are unprepared for the sudden attack of the five countries. , as soon as the war started, the Yue Kingdom lost several cities and retreated steadily. When the war was tense and forced to do nothing, the Yue Kingdom could only order the callback of the Yue Kingdom cavalry that was fighting in Hedong.
Soon, the transfer order from the King of Yue was passed to Hamel. After reading this transfer order, Hamel couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh. He had already made up his mind when he went on the expedition. This time he would assist Changsun Yuanhong. He defeated the invading Feng army in order to repay his kindness to the Yue Kingdom, but the outcome was not as good as fate. But at the most critical moment of the battle between the Feng and Ning armies, the king's order came. He knew very well that at this time, his own side Once they withdraw, it will be a huge blow to the Ning army, and the Ning army will no longer be able to compete with the Feng army. This is no different from adding fuel to the fire and adding fuel to the fire. How can I open this mouth to Changsun Yuanhong?
But he had to obey the king's order, not to mention that the situation in the country was tense, and it was impossible for him not to rescue him. In the end, Hamel had no choice but to bite the bullet and find the seriously injured eldest son Yuanhong. The current situation in the country was told to him.
Changsun Yuanhong was very smart. As soon as he heard this, he understood the purpose of Hamel's visit. well! He climbed on the bed, sighed secretly in his heart, and said quietly: "The five countries suddenly launched an attack at the same time. This must be the Feng Kingdom secretly doing it. In fact, I had guessed that the Feng Kingdom would do this, but I didn't expect the war to drag on for so long. ... Hamel, you are in trouble in your country. You should not stay in the east of Hedong anymore. Go back to your country quickly! There is a Feng army blocking you in the south. Don't be careless. You need to head eastward with your cavalry to avoid the Feng army. "
When Hamel heard this, he was very moved, and his eye circles became red. He lifted up his military robe, knelt on one knee in front of Changsun Yuanhong's bed, and said in a trembling voice: "Hamel failed to help the general to defeat the wind thief. Now, But to return in vain, really... It really fails the general's expectations, and it is also unworthy of the general's great trust..."
Changsun Yuanhong smiled, waved his hand slowly, and said: "Hamel, don't say that, you have done a good job. Go back to your country!"
"General..."
The sudden withdrawal of the Yue cavalry can be said to have greatly weakened the combat effectiveness of the Ning army, and directly led to the imbalance of strength between Feng and Ning. Without the assistance of the Yue cavalry, and the commander-in-chief Sun Yuanhong was seriously injured, Wei Zheng stayed at the Ning Army camp and did not go north for reinforcements. At this time, the Ning Army had completely lost the ability to take the initiative and could only defend passively.
Ning's army is currently in an extremely embarrassing situation. They want to withdraw, but they are unwilling to lose the opportunity to kill Tang Yin. If they don't withdraw, they will be trapped by Feng's army. Once the opponent stops feinting and attacks with all his strength, Ning's army has all the options. The army is in danger of being destroyed.
At this time, Changsun Yuanhong could only order someone to send an order to Wei Zheng again, explaining that he was injured, so that he must lead his army to rescue him no matter what. If Wei Zheng was still unmoved this time, the messenger could go directly to the soldiers below. General, captured Wei Zheng and took over the command of the entire army.
This time Changsun Yuanhong was cruel. He was afraid that the courier would have an accident on the way and his orders would not be conveyed to his own camp, so he specially arranged for several couriers to go out to deliver the message at the same time.
Since the south road has been blocked by Feng Jun, Ning Jun's messenger can only take a detour to Qingyuan.
This was how the Yue cavalry took a detour before. When the Pingyuan Army and the Sanshui Army got the news, the Yue cavalry had already run far away. Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi didn't understand why the Yue cavalry suddenly went south, but they agreed that they would remain unchanged in the face of changes to see what the enemy was going to do.
After the Yue cavalry withdrew, Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi also became more careful and placed a large number of hidden sentries on the east side of their camp to prevent sudden enemy attacks and to observe the enemy's movements immediately. As a result, the secret sentry was rewarded as soon as it was deployed. The seven messengers sent by Changsun Yuanhong were intercepted and killed by the Feng Army secret sentry, and two of them were captured alive.
Soon, the Feng Army's secret sentry brought the captured messenger and the captured letters back to the Pingyuan Army and Sanshui Army camps. After listening to the report of the soldiers below, and then reading the letter found from the courier, Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi took a breath in unison. According to the letter, the Yue cavalry had returned to the country for rescue, and the eldest son Yuanhong was talking to the king again. He was seriously injured during the fight. Is this true or false? Is it true or is it a trick by Changsun Yuanhong?
The two men immediately ordered Ning Guo's messenger to be brought to the Chinese army's tent, where they interrogated him personally. Under severe torture and intimidation, the two Ningguo messengers confessed everything they knew without much effort, confirming that the Yueguo cavalry had indeed returned to the country of Yue, and that Changsun Yuanhong was indeed seriously injured. It will no longer be possible to fight on the battlefield for a short period of time.
When the Feng generals below heard this, they were all overjoyed and clenched their fists in excitement. Without the Yue cavalry, the Ning army was no match for their own army. The leader, Sun Yuanhong, was injured and could no longer fight, and there was no one in the Ning army who could compete with our own army. If a powerful general doesn't attack now, how long will he wait?
However, there was no trace of happiness on the faces of Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi. Instead, they were full of solemnity. It's simple. Both of them were a little uncomfortable with this sudden advantage, and they felt it was too incredible.
We sent envoys to the neighboring countries of Yue, asking them to attack Yue and force the Vietnamese army to retreat. However, as soon as the Vietnamese army withdrew, Changsun Yuanhong was injured. Isn't this a coincidence? Furthermore, both of them have seen Changsun Yuanhong's ability. Tang Yin's spiritual martial arts is not weak, but it is unrealistic for Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi to want to defeat Changsun Yuanhong and even seriously injure him. If all this is true, then the Ning army in front of them has less than 100,000 people. Under the encirclement of more than 200,000 troops, they still dare to hold on and not retreat. This is too contrary to common sense.
Due to various considerations, the more the two of them thought about it, the more they felt that there was something deceitful about it. They suspected that the messenger and the letter were probably bait deliberately thrown out by Changsun Yuanhong, with the purpose of luring his own soldiers to attack in large numbers. Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi are both extremely smart people, but the smarter they are, the easier it is for them to complicate simple things. If they were replaced by an upright person like Shangguan Yuanrang at this time, would they worry about anything else and immediately do it? You have to lead the entire army to attack.
Changsun Yuanhong's messenger was intercepted by Feng Jun, but Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi did not believe the content of the letter, nor did they attack the Ning Jun camp with all their strength. The battle between the two sides continued to drag on.
In the valley.
Ning's army had not launched an attack for several days, and the hundreds of soldiers under Tang Yinhe did not dare to relax at all. In these few days, everyone built the stone wall high and strong, and prepared for it.
On this day, after having lunch with his soldiers, Tang Yin walked into the valley alone, walking slowly and casually while thinking about the next response. If the Ning army launches another fierce attack like the last time, it will be impossible to resist it with the current manpower. There is no other choice now, either to break out of the encirclement, or to stay in the valley and wait for death.
But Ning Yue has so many troops, how can we break out?
At this time, even Tang Yin, who was so adaptable and adaptable, was at a loss and had no countermeasures. The only thing he could be thankful for now was that Changsun Yuanhong was seriously injured and could not participate in the battle for a short time, which reduced his own side from a huge threat.
Unknowingly, Tang Yin had reached the depths of the valley. When he came to his senses, he found himself stopped in front of a pile of rocks. He was no stranger to this pile of rocks. Behind the rocks was the cave where Yan Lie's corpse was. When the Ning army attacked, he had a chance to escape by hiding here. Could it be that he had to hide here again this time? ?
Thinking of this, Tang Yin couldn't help but smile bitterly, stretched out his hand, and patted the stone surface gently. At this time, footsteps came from behind. Tang Yin turned around and saw that it was Wuying walking over. Tang Yin put away the bitterness on his face, showed a calm and confident smile, and asked: "Xiaoying, is something wrong?"
Wuying shook her head, looked at Tang Yin, and asked: "The king is here because..."
Tang Yin smiled and said, "I was just walking around casually."
"Oh!" Wuying breathed a sigh of relief. She knew in her heart that the towering cliffs around the valley could block her, but they couldn't block Tang Yin. If he wanted to leave, he could climb out at any time. There was no need to Stay and suffer in Death Valley. Soon, she frowned again and said: "Your Majesty, there are only a few hundred soldiers left in our army now. If Ning's army launches another attack, our army will definitely not be able to resist it. Your Majesty... it's better to leave first. With Your Majesty's cultivation, Because, the mere Death Valley will definitely not be able to trap the king."
Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, then smiled, raised his head, looked up at the top of the mountain, and said, "I will not leave. As long as one of our soldiers remains in the valley, I will accompany him to fight to the death with Ning Ren!"
Wuying's heart felt warm, and she couldn't help but take two steps forward, approached Tang Yin, lowered her head, and called softly: "Your Majesty..."
Tang Yin stretched out his hand to hold Wuying's shoulder armor, narrowed his eyes and said quietly: "Don't worry, since I was the one who brought you to Hedong, I have the responsibility and must bring you back to Yancheng!"
