When the news that Prince Daliang led his troops into Longde Mansion reached Xiangyuan, the soldiers and horses in the city suddenly panicked. Previously, the soldiers and horses in the city were able to block the soldiers and horses of Daliang, but they only relied on the mountains in the east of the river to spread suspicion, so that the soldiers and horses of Daliang did not dare to march straight in. In dangerous places, every inch of land must be fought for, and human lives must be used to block the main beams of soldiers and horses.
However, after blocking the Daliang soldiers and horses in Xiangyuan for more than ten days, they have reached their limit. The Daliang soldiers and horses have pushed the front army outside Xiangyuan City.
Yesterday, Qin Ming sent his troops to attack Xiangyuan City, but Qiong Ying might as well lead his troops out of the city. Qin Ming was knocked off his horse by flying stones and captured alive into the city. After losing a captain of ten thousand men, the Daliang army and horse offensive stopped.
The guard at the south gate of Xiangyuan was Ye Qing, the supervisor of Qiongying's family when she was young. There were originally three generals guarding the city in Xiangyuan City, the chief general Xu Wei, and the deputy generals Ye Qing and Sheng Ben.
When Daliang soldiers and horses defeated Zezhou, Wei Sheng Tian Hu sent his uncle Wu Li to lead troops to help.
When Ye Qing learned that Prince Daliang had led his troops, he brought his wife An to Qiongying's mansion.
Everyone in the city knew that Ye Qing was the supervisor of Qiongying's family when she was young, so it was not surprising that the two families had contacts. Even Wu Li only knew that Ye Qing and Qiong Ying had such a relationship, but did not know that Qiong Ying's biological parents were killed by Tian Hu.
Qiongying was practicing martial arts in the courtyard. When she saw Ye Qing and his wife arriving, she hurriedly asked them to go back to the back house to talk.
When the three of them entered the back house, Ye Qing watched Qiong Ying send the servants away.
Qiong Ying found an excuse and sent the servants away, saying, "Does Uncle Ye have any instructions?"
Ye Qingdao: "Little master, did you hear that Prince Daliang led his troops to Longde Mansion?"
Qiong Ying said: "I have been practicing martial arts in the courtyard today, but I didn't get any news. Yesterday, there was news from Wei Sheng that the Prince of Liang brought 10,000 soldiers and horses to capture Xizhou, and the three kings of Jinzhou brought 20,000 soldiers and horses to stop them. , but was defeated by the Prince of Daliang. Tian Bao sent the palace commander Sun An with 20,000 troops to reinforce, hoping to block the troops of Daliang in Xiangyuan. Unexpectedly, the Prince of Daliang came so quickly, and he was indeed wiped out. Elite soldiers of Xixia."
Ye Qing nodded and said: "The soldiers and horses of Daliang are brave, and the prince has always been prestigious. I am afraid that just the prince's presence on the front line can improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of Daliang. What's more, the prince also brought 10,000 elite soldiers, and Xiangyuan City was defeated in the near future. No matter what, Tian Hu cannot escape the catastrophe. To avenge his master, he must surrender to Prince Daliang."
Qiong Ying frowned and said: "I was thinking about this a few days ago. I only injured the soldiers of Daliang, but I didn't kill them. I just knocked Qin Ming off his horse yesterday, but the tooth general in front of my uncle snatched him out and captured Qin Ming. Qin Ming fell because of me, and we went to take the lead."
Ye Qingdao: "Qin Ming was just imprisoned in the city. My little master just protects him well."
Qiong Ying said: "Uncle Ye, what's your plan?"
"We have surrendered to Daliang. We can send Daliang's soldiers and horses into the city from the south gate that I guard. The young master can find a way to enter the prison and protect Qin Ming. We have surrendered Xiangyuan. It is natural that the young master injured the general of Daliang before. That's it. If you follow Prince Daliang, it won't be difficult to kill the enemy."
Qiongying thought for a while and said: "The Daliang camp has been forced outside the city, and they won't have much trouble breaking Xiangyuan. It's better to wait for Sun An's reinforcements to arrive. If we offer the city again, it will also show our sincerity."
Ye Qingdao: "What the young master said is true, but we can send people to contact Daliang soldiers and horses first, and wait until Sun An enters the city to offer Xiangyuan."
Qiongying nodded and said: "Then I'll bother Uncle Ye. Thanks to Uncle Ye, I know that the enemy who killed my parents also learned martial arts. Otherwise, I can only live a confused life."
??Speaking of emotional aspects. I couldn't help but have tears in my eyes.
Ye Qing said: "My master treated me well before, so I naturally want to protect my little master's safety. God pitied me and let me know the reason for my master's death, so he asked me to help him get revenge. This is what a villain should do." What's the use of the little master?"
Ye Qing¡¯s wife An Shi couldn¡¯t help but hold Qiongying in her arms and shed tears when she thought of the misfortune of her old master and his wife.
Qiongying also inherited her mother's appearance and was born extremely beautiful. However, a woman who is born too beautiful is not a blessing most of the time. If Qiong Ying's mother had not been so beautiful, Tian Hu would not have killed her father and wanted to capture her mother and take her back to be the wife of Yazhai. If Qiong Ying's mother had been born ordinary, Tian Hu would have probably just robbed property and would not kill people at will. Although the couple lost money, they did not lose their lives.
After Qiongying grew up, there were a lot of people asking for marriage, including Tian Hu, a powerful figure in the pseudo-Jin Kingdom, so Wu Li had to prepare to choose a son-in-law. However, Qiong Ying threatened to die, and Wu Li was reluctant to part with Qiong Ying's martial arts skills, so she rejected everyone.
Ye Qing saw the two of them hugging each other and crying, and said: "I will avenge my master soon. Don't show your emotions, lest anyone discover anything unusual."
? ?Hearing this, the man wiped his tears.
Ye Qing and his wife did not dare to stay too long. They lingered for a while and then left.
Chao Yong and others rested for a day in Longde Mansion, and then led their troops to the front camp of Xiangyuan.
The terrain along the way was difficult, and we often walked through mountains.
The four troops of Qianfan Hua Rong spent most of their time on the road.
Wu Liguang set up suspicious troops, and everyone was afraid of being ambushed, so they could only camp step by step, so the progress was extremely slow. Qiong Ying also led the troops to fight for a while, which slowed down the progress of the army.
However, after many days, the army has advanced to the foot of Xiangyuan City, and has controlled all important places along the way.
There was no need to worry about an ambush. Chao Yong's 10,000 men marched very quickly. In just one day, they reached the camp at the foot of Xiangyuan City.
When the group arrived outside the camp, Guan Sheng, who had rushed back to the front line one day in advance, took Choujun Ma Xuanzan, Jingmuyan Hao Siwen, Baodushan Tang Bin, Wen Zhongrong, and Cui Ye who were staying at the camp out of the camp to greet them. .
After everyone saw the ceremony, they came to the main tent of the Chinese army.
As Chao Yong walked away, he asked, "Did any of the city's defenders come to harass us yesterday?"
Guan Sheng smiled and said: "No, a few days ago, the Jin soldiers sniped at us along the way. Although they slowed down the army, the Jin soldiers also suffered a lot of casualties. We also used fire and thunder several times, and now they dare to fight us. But there are not many left. There was another person who came to surrender the night before, claiming to be a confidant of Xiangyuan Lieutenant General Ye Qing, but I don¡¯t know whether it is true or not. "
Chao Yong said: "Let him come to see me."
When everyone arrived at the Chinese army's tent, Xuan Zan had already brought a capable man.
The man entered the tent and paid his respects: "Young man Ye San pays homage to the prince."
Chao Yong waved his hand and said, "Please tell me your purpose of coming."
"The villain is a personal attendant of Ye Qing, the deputy general of Xiangyuan, and he came to present Xiangyuan on General Ye's order."
¡°As he spoke, he told Qiong Ying¡¯s life experience again.
Shi Wengong wondered: "Since Qiong Ying and Tian Hu have a bloody feud, how can we help him and injure many of my soldiers?"
Hua Rong also nodded and said: "This matter is indeed a bit strange."
Chao Yong said: "This is true."
Hearing this, everyone couldn¡¯t help but look at Chao Yong with confusion.
Chao Yong had no intention of explaining, and asked: "Is Qin Ming safe that Ye Qing can protect?"
Nahan said: "When the army enters the city, Qiongying will protect General Qin."
Chao Yong nodded and said: "In this way, this matter can be done. Then go back and tell General Ye that as long as you sacrifice Xiangyuan, let's forget the past. Any Tian Hu captured in the future can also be killed by Qiongying."
The man cupped his hands and said, "You must report the truth to my general."
Xuanzan took the man out of the tent and ordered the soldiers to take him out of the camp.
Li Kui couldn't help but said: "How does the prince know that what he said is true?"
Chao Yong naturally couldn¡¯t say that he saw it in the book, so he smiled and said, ¡°It can¡¯t be said, it can¡¯t be said.¡±
When everyone thought about Chao Yong¡¯s many mysterious things before, they thought they had guessed it.
Shi Wengong said: "Since Ye Qing has come to surrender, it will be easy for us to break Xiangyuan."
Chao Yong nodded and said: "Then we will try to capture all the soldiers and horses in the city."
After Ye Qing and Qiong Ying decided on their plan, they did not hesitate. However, he was responsible for guarding the south gate, but he could not leave for too long, so he sent a personal follower out of the city.
However, Sun An's reinforcements sent by Tian Hu arrived half a day earlier than Chao Yong's troops. They only had to rest for half a day before leaving the city to defeat the enemy the next day.
It wasn¡¯t until the sky turned dark that Prince Daliang, who was scouted by spies outside the city, entered the camp. Ye Qing waited for him to return to the city in person.
The personal entourage came back pretending to be sentries outside the city. Ye Qing heard that Prince Daliang agreed to exempt them from the crime of resisting the army, so he did not dare to ask for anything. He immediately sent his personal entourage out of the city to make an appointment with the Prince of Daliang on the time for the dedication of the city, and at the same time sent his wife to inform Qiong Ying.
