Cries of killing resounded across the sky, blood accompanied by the bloody setting sun, and the bleak autumn wind rolled up the darkness of the night. Under Lanling City, blood and fire were constantly burning.
"Your Majesty, I think it's better to let the sons come back to rest first. I'm afraid they won't be able to capture Lanling City for a while."
When all the generals did not dare to speak, Lu Shantang spoke in a deep voice. Liu Ji, who had his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes and turned to face Zhao Kang beside him, "Blow the drum and withdraw the troops."
Although Liu Ji wants to destroy Lanling City more than anyone else and realize the dream that his ancestors have never realized, Liu Ji also understands that he cannot force it. Lanling City was built based on danger. Although Daiyan and Xiyun are said to be the gateway to Lanling City It is a land location, but this passage is easy to defend and easy to attack.
Because this passage is connected to Lanling City by high bridges, and after Sun Mofei was defeated at Daiyan and returned to Lanling City, those high bridges were destroyed. Therefore, Lanling City is now surrounded by water. To attack the city, you must cross the weak river in front of you.
But at this point, it has to be said that Liu Feng got it right and asked Li Yun and Li Yun to attack the Western Han Dynasty warships on the Lanjiang River. I am afraid that in a short time, no ships will be able to enter the Ruoshui River.
Therefore, continuing to attack the city is just a waste of soldiers. Liu Ji is obviously unwilling to do such an unwise thing.
Everyone dispersed, Liu Ji turned around and asked the guard standing by, "Diao Li, is there anything your master can do?"
The guard had a look of embarrassment on his face, "Your Majesty, I forgive you. The master was exhausted yesterday and will need to recuperate for a few more days. The shortest time is probably two or three days."
Hearing this, Liu Ji sighed secretly in his heart. It was indeed the case. Even if his cultivation level was not high, he still understood the consumption of the teleportation technique, not to mention that the technique he used was not an authentic secret of the Li family.
Fortunately, Liu Ji was decisive enough. When the pursuers came from behind, he threw down his army to block them and teleported to Daiyan City with a few people.
Liu Ji waved away Diao Li and stared at the lights in the room. Suddenly a look of anger flashed across his face. Damn Xuan Pavilion. If it hadn't existed, Dong Yu would have been captured long ago!
During the expedition, he also brought many masters with him, and even invited ancestors from the palace who had devoted themselves to training for many years. However, because of the unknown Xuan Ge, no one was willing to take the initiative.
There are many masters in the Sun family. It seems that the only way is to wait for the other party to jump over the wall. Thinking of this, Liu Ji slammed his fist on the table next to him. The plan he had been planning for many years was about to be realized, but he couldn't let it go yet. How annoying!
"Jade shepherd, there is news about Uncle Qing and the others!"
Han Jie's voice made Liu Feng and others in the room look over. Shangrao County was safe and sound these days, and they would inevitably have to worry about Liu Qing and others.
"How is Uncle Qing's situation? Junsheng, hurry up and talk to everyone!"
The most impatient one is of course Zhang Miao. Putting aside the uncle-like-father relationship between Liu Feng and Liu Qing, he also respects Liu Qing in his heart and regards him as his uncle.
Knowing that everyone was worried about this matter, Han Jie did not hold back and directly told the news he had received, "Uncle Qing led his troops ashore in Jiangying County, Lingshuang City. He divided his troops into two groups and unexpectedly destroyed Liu Jiliu in one fell swoop. The ships and defenders in Lingshuang took only two days to recover Lingshuang City, and now they are really planning to attack Zhenjiang City."
Han Jie's words made Liu Feng breathe a sigh of relief. When Liu Qing and others were asked to cut off Liu Ji's escape route, they just wanted to annihilate all the people in the Western Han Dynasty. However, as the routes were divided, he would always worry about them. a bit.
"Uncle Qing really has a sword that is not old yet. Wherever he goes, there are such strong winds blowing down leaves. It's really satisfying!"
Zhang Miao said with a smile, Lin Ruoxian also agreed, and Han Jie winked at Liu Feng, "Yu Guan, do you know how many people Uncle Qing has now?"
Seeing Han Jie's appearance, I'm afraid there should be a lot of them. When they parted, they only gave 30,000 troops, but when the country is broken and the people's hearts are reunited, it will be at least twice as many.
"One hundred twenty thousand!"
Unable to hold back the joy in his heart, Han Jie told Liu Feng the result before he could answer. Looking at the surprised face in front of him, he took out the letter in his arms and said, "Don't be dazed. This is absolutely true, Qing." My uncle¡¯s letter made it very clear.¡±
"Jun Sheng, you guy, why didn't you take out Uncle Qing's letter earlier!"
Zhang Miao glanced at Han Jie with disdain, but the latter didn't take it seriously. He handed the letter to Liu Feng, picked up a cup of tea, sat on a chair and hummed a tune, completely ignoring the person over there who was still gritting his teeth.
If so, Liu Qing's letter describes what he did along the Luan River to Lingshuang and his next plans. Of course, there are also words of concern for Liu Feng and others.
Pass the letter to Zhang Miao and wait for it to be circulatedAfterwards, Lin Ruoxian was full of admiration, "Uncle Qing is indeed a famous general on the battlefield. He is calm and calm, and he has the style of a general."
"You are right for the people. In this case, Uncle Qing will follow Liu Ji's rear to regain the city, and also kill the army that Liu Ji left behind!"
Zhang Miao's words made Liu Feng remain silent. This was the most optimistic thing. At present, including the cavalry, there were only more than 10,000 people in Shangrao County. If Liu Ji's troops were to be surrounded, there would still be many difficulties to be solved.
" Later, after continuing to chat for a while, the group of people dispersed. Sensing Liu Feng's mood swings, Lin Ruoxian wanted to follow behind and say a few words of comfort, but was stopped by Zhang Miao.
Sometimes, it might be better to be alone for a while.
Walking in Shangrao's camp, the original soldiers were pulled to the west of the city, and this became Liu Feng's temporary residence.
But Liu Feng felt a little upset in his heart, which was inexplicable, and Liu Feng didn't know why. I walked to a crooked-necked tree that had lost its leaves, leaned half against the trunk, and stared at the vast starry sky.
"What, are you bored?"
When Liu Feng was lost in thought, a familiar voice came from behind him. When he turned around, he saw Wu Yong walking towards him. The hint of loneliness between his brows made Liu Feng see it very clearly.
But even if he understood the reason, Liu Feng was unwilling to reveal it and just pretended that he didn't know. "It's late at night, why didn't my father-in-law take a rest earlier?"
Without speaking, Wu Yong just sighed. Wu Yong took a few steps forward. Like Liu Feng, he looked up at the sky under the night sky. After a while, he sighed again, "The Yu Dynasty is coming to an end."
There was loneliness in his voice, and Liu Feng didn't know how to express this feeling. Even though Emperor Yuxing chilled Wu Yong's heart, he saw that the dynasty he had been loyal to for his whole life was overthrown. As a man who once fought on the battlefield, these days, It¡¯s also very uncomfortable to be afraid.
"Are you really not willing to help the Sun family?" Suddenly, Wu Yong turned his head and looked at Liu Feng. Although he was asking, it was more of expectation.
Guessing Wu Yong's thoughts, Liu Feng smiled and shook his head, "What do you think? Can Liu Feng control the current situation? In the end, we are all just players in the game. The boy is also very confused now. This battle I can¡¯t afford to lose, but how can I continue to fight?¡±
It is rare to have such a heart-to-heart talk with Wu Yong. The last time was in front of Wu Ma's grave. Since he was dismissed from office by Dong Yu's court, his temperament has become silent, and it is rare for a son-in-law and a son-in-law to open their hearts like this.
Liu Feng's words flashed a trace of disappointment in Wu Yong's eyes. In fact, as a veteran who has been on the battlefield for half his life, how could Wu Yong not understand the current situation? The Western Han army swept across the territory of Dong Yu with overwhelming arrogance. Even for Liu Feng, it was a great disadvantage. .
"When will we take action?"
After being silent, Wu Yong asked another question that Liu Feng didn't know how to answer. The latter smiled bitterly again, "Liu Feng really hasn't planned this. Maybe it will be tomorrow, or maybe it will be the next moment."
"Are you waiting for the master to fight?"
Liu Feng's advantage was not that his surprise troops appeared unexpectedly and caught the Western Han Dynasty off guard. Even if all Lu Ming's elite troops were mobilized, it would be impossible to completely annihilate Liu Ji's army of more than 700,000.
Therefore, Wu Yong understood that Liu Feng was waiting for Dong Yu's final struggle. Liu Jiying must also have masters from the Western Han Dynasty. As soon as Dong Yu made a move, a battle among the masters would begin.
But Liu Feng¡¯s advantage lies here. At that time, with the help of several ancient schools, conquering cities and villages was only within his grasp.
"Haha, my father-in-law has a good eye. Senior Xuanji is afraid that it will come in the next two days, but whether it will be as Liu Feng thinks depends on God's will."
Liu Feng readily admitted his plan without denying it. It would not be a wise move to cover up in front of smart people, not to mention that Wu Yong is still one of his own.
"I hope you can succeed." After giving Liu Feng a deep look, Wu Yong turned around and walked back, but after walking a few steps, he turned back and opened his mouth, but in the end he did not say anything.
Seeing Wu Yong acting like this, Liu Feng knew that he wanted Liu Feng to save the Sun family. Even if he could not save Dayu's kingdom, as an old minister, he still wanted to protect the old master's life.
As for not saying anything, Wu Yong has seen through the current situation and knows that there are some things that Liu Feng cannot control. Of course, he does not want to put pressure on Liu Feng, so as not to affect his judgment.
In late autumn, the wind picked up, and the few remaining yellow leaves on the trees swayed a few times, falling to Liu Feng's feet, while he leaned against the tree trunk and continued to stare at the sky.
Lanling City, Imperial Palace, Chengtian Hall.
"Yiqing, what are you doing!"
In front of the bed, Princess Xianhua looked at Sun Mofei who was slowly waking up with tears in her eyes. Fortunately, her ancestors took action?Otherwise, the lineage of the Sun family of Dayu may really be ruined.
Opening his eyes with difficulty, Sun Mofei felt some pain. When he saw Princess Xianhua, he stretched out his hand tremblingly and held her cuffs. Tears welled up uncontrollably, "Auntie, Yiqing really can't bear it anymore" "
Seeing Sun Mofei like this, Princess Xianhua felt even more uncomfortable. Over the years, the crying child had turned into an emperor.
But it was the position of emperor that changed his life.
With the sound of pain, Sun Mofei vented the pain that he had suppressed in his heart. However, how could his too weak body withstand such emotional fluctuations? As a last resort, Princess Xianhua could only use medical skills to make her suffer again. Entering into a state of lethargy.
After covering Sun Mofei's quilt carefully and saying a few words to the tearful Queen Xiang, Princess Xianhua walked out. At this moment, no matter what, she had to find Liu Feng.
