Qingzhou, in the barracks.
"Lord Ye, I heard that you ordered to attack the city tomorrow?" Jin Lou walked in from the outside and asked Ye Yiqing who was turning his back on him.
Ye Yiqing was looking at the map of Xiliang, and when he heard Jin Lou's question, he just nodded slightly, "Yes, we will attack the city tomorrow."
Jin Lou had a big smile on his face, "There is still a war-free flag hanging on the gate of Donglai."
"Since Xiliang started the war, the war-free flag has no meaning at all." Ye Yiqing turned around, with a cold smile on his gentle and refined face.
"No, that's what I thought too. Those old men in Qingzhou still beeped saying that the flag of exempting from war is a rule. Fuck his rules. What rules are there after the war has started." Jin Lou said with a smile, Xiliang is a big fart. The country dares to go to war with Jin Guo, and if they don't beat them to pieces, they will treat Jin Guo as a sick cat.
Ye Yiqing didn't think so much like Jin Lou. He wanted to save Yaoyao as quickly as possible when attacking the city. He didn't want to waste all his time here. When he learned that his daughter was captured by the Xiliang Witch King, he only had one thought at that time. , beat up Murong Zhan, and then leveled Xiliang.
"I heard that there are 200,000 troops in Anhe City." Ye Yiqing asked in a low voice.
The smile on Jin Lou's face froze slightly, "Yes, I have heard that Beiming Kingdom has concentrated all its troops in Anhe City."
"It seems that I have known for a long time that your emperor will go to Xiazhou." Ye Yiqing said, he looked down at the map on the desktop, which is the big map of the whole world. Now except for Qi, the other four countries have already gone to war. It's not far from chaos.
"Wan Ziliang is in the wasteland." Jin Lou said, "What is Bei Ming trying to do?"
Ye Yiqing lowered his eyes and fell silent for a moment, "Jin has 50,000 elite soldiers, and Beiming has 200,000...Who do you think has a better chance of winning?"
Jin Lou really wanted to say that their emperor was invincible, but the difference between 50,000 and 200,000 was too great, and he couldn't confidently say, "As long as we can hold on for a while, Jin's reinforcements will arrive in Xiazhou." , Beiming Kingdom will definitely be defeated."
"That depends on whether Murong Zhan can hold on." Ye Yiqing whispered, he did not underestimate Murong Zhan, nor did he expect too much, after all, the gap between 50,000 and 200,000 is really too big.
"Lord Ye, can we capture Donglai tomorrow?" Jin Lou asked.
Ye Yiqing looked at Jin Lou sharply, "Donglai must be captured."
…
…
In Xiazhou, wars are raging.
The wounded soldier was carried back to Xiazhou City, Mo Rongzhan's black armor was stained with blood, even he didn't know whether it was his own or someone else's.
"Your Majesty, we have burned the grain storehouse of Beiming Kingdom, and they will not fight again for at least five days." Wang Cuo came running from the other side, panting and said to Murong Zhan.
Mo Rongzhan nodded, "Well done!"
He asked Sima Jian and the others to lead troops to intercept the grain depot of the Beiming army in order to delay the time. Today he led tens of thousands of elite soldiers to fight the 200,000 army. Although 5,000 soldiers were lost, at least Beiming The country still retreated.
The reason for Beiming Kingdom's retreat is also very simple. After receiving the news that the grain and grass depot was intercepted, they thought that Jin Kingdom sent troops to attack from the rear, so they hurried back to defend.
In Murong Zhan's deliberate construction, Hai Gang, the coach of Anhe City, didn't know the actual strength of Xiazhou. Afraid of falling into Mo Rongzhan's trap.
"Reorganize the team and count the number of people." Murong Zhan said to Wang Cuo, "Today, reward the soldiers well."
Wang Cuo said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Murong Zhan returned to the temporary commander-in-chief's mansion. As soon as he entered the house, Eunuch Fu had already greeted him, "Your Majesty, quickly wipe your face with a hot towel."
"Mmm." Murong Zhan took the hot towel from Eunuch Fu, and put it on his face directly. The heat warmed his frozen skin.
"Your Majesty." Wu Chong ran over with big strides and bowed to Murong Zhan.
"Is there any news from Xiliang?" Mo Rongzhan took off the towel, and glanced at Wu Chong with sharp eyes.
Wu Chong was wounded by Wuming when he was in the capital, his injury was not as serious as Xue Lin's, and when he could walk around, he came to Murong Zhan's side to do errands.
"Your Majesty, it was the news from the wilderness that Lu Lingzhi left the barracks and rushed to Donglai." Wu Chong said, "It was only reported from the Xiliang side that the empress had been to the palace, and that the prisoner was imprisoned. Wan Yanxi has brought it back to the Priest Hall."
Mo Rongzhan nodded lightly, and asked Eunuch Fu to come and take off his armor. At least he knew that Ye Zhen was safe now. With Huangfuchen in the priest's hall, Qi Ruoshui didn't dare to do anything to her, "Wanyanxi is dead?"
Wu Chong said, "It seems... was saved by the empress."
"Is there no news about Shen Yi?" Mo Rongzhan asked with a frown.
"Not yet." Wu Chong said.
Mo Rongzhan frowned slightly, Shen Yi and others have been looking for Ye Zhen's trace, Hongying and Jian Jia also rushed to Xiliang to join him, why is there no news at all
"I see, let's go down." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice, and then he remembered about Lu Lingzhi, "Don't pay attention to Lu Lingzhi, let him go to Donglai."
There is Ye Yiqing in Qingzhou, he will never let Lu Lingzhi go.
He failed to go to Xiliang to rescue Ye Zhen himself, he had to resist the 200,000 army of Beiming Kingdom here, now he only hoped that Ye Yiqing could capture Donglai as soon as possible.
Donglai is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is still the most important hurdle in Xiliang. As long as Donglai is captured, it will be much easier to take the capital of Xiliang directly.
As for Shen Yi and the others, let's talk about going back to Xiliang.
Jian Jia and Hongying were ordered to feel that Qingzhou and Shen Yi were meeting, and after changing their appearance, they sneaked into Donglai respectively, and rushed all the way to the king's capital. It was only when they reached the priest's hall that it was not easy to save people, so they had to find ways to wait quietly around the priest's hall. Yes, even if they can enter the priest's hall, they can only worship the witch god in the front hall.
They waited for a long time and exhausted all means to finally be able to become the maids of the priest's hall. Before they could find the empress, the priest's hall suddenly caught fire.
"Hongying, did you see that person looks like Miss Jin!" Jian Jia said while holding Hongying's hand.
"It's her!" Hongying looked at the woman who was running this way, and at a glance she was the Jin Shanshan she had seen before.
Jian Jia said, "Why is she here? Now that the hall of priests is in chaos, we have to find the empress quickly, maybe Miss Jin knows the whereabouts of the empress."
Seeing Jin Shanshan being pursued by soldiers, Hongying said, "I'll go and lure those people away, and you get Miss Jin out first."
"Okay!" Jian Jia nodded, "I don't know where Mr. Shen is, he should be able to find your wife."
"Be careful, don't let people discover our identities." Hongying said.
