Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In Xudu City, Xin Ping was walking slowly at the top of the city, inspecting the city defenses.

    A few days ago, the news of Yan Liang's large-scale invasion quickly put the soldiers and civilians in a state of nervousness.

    Not long ago, Yan Liang's Qingqi attacked Xu Du in a surprise attack and killed two generals of the Lu family. It is still like a lingering haze, always engraved in the hearts of Xu Du people, making them dream about this tragic event.  The memory wakes me up.

    Now, Yan Liang has killed Liu Qi and defeated Jiangdong. He has come with the power of Jingzhou. Now he can not frighten the people of Xudu.

    But this time, although the hearts of Xudu's soldiers and people were nervous, the defenders from Jiang Qi on down remained calm.

    The credit lies in Xin Ping.

    Since the previous defeat, Xin Ping suggested that Yuan Tan build and reinforce Kunyang City as a barrier to Xudu. At the same time, he sent detailed troops to go deep into Jingzhou to closely monitor Yan Jun's every move.

    Therefore, when Yan Liang's army was still gathering, Xin Ping had obtained the information in advance, and he quickly reminded the guard Jiang Qi, so that he could deploy the defense from the air.

    Now, Kunyang City has enough food and grass for a year, Mu Yuanjin's 5,000 garrison is ready, and Xu Ducheng's 10,000 soldiers are also in place. Xin Ping believes that as long as they can't hold on, even if Yan Liang has 100,000 troops  Come, don't be afraid.

    Time passed day by day, and the agents continued to send Yan Liang¡¯s latest information to Xudu.

    Yan Jun has passed through Xinye

    Yan Jun has passed Wancheng

    Yan Jun arrived in Ye County

    Yan Jun began to encircle Kunyang

    The enemy army starts from raising troops.  All developments were within Xin Ping's expectations.

    "Yan Liang, you relied on others to underestimate you and won a few battles. Then you became arrogant and dared to besiege Kunyang City with a mere 40,000 people. Hmm, I want to see how you failed in Jiancheng.  It¡¯s probably below¡­¡±

    When Xin Ping is thinking deeply.  A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

    The second number one counselor under Prince Yuan was in a very relaxed mood at the moment. All he had to do was to guard Xu Du and Kunyang and wait for Yuan Tan's army to return for reinforcements.

    Or perhaps, Yuan Tan did not need to return reinforcements at all, and Yan Liang attacked with no results.  He had no choice but to retreat.

    Just at this moment, footsteps sounded.  Xin Ping looked back.  But he saw Jiang Qizheng coming in a hurry, with such a solemn expression, as if he had received some bad news.

    Xin Ping frowned secretly, with a vague feeling of bad premonition.

    "Mr. Xin, the latest information sent by Kunyang seems to be a little bad." Jiang Qi's tone was quite solemn, and he handed over a silk letter.

    "What? Could it be that something happened in Kunyang?" Xin Ping was shocked and quickly took over the information and took a closer look.

    In the blink of an eye.  Xin Ping's originally leisurely expression was shrouded in gloom.

    Kunyang is still as stable as a rock.  But what was written in the intelligence shocked Xin Ping even more than Kunyang's mistake.

    The intelligence claimed that Yan Liang left Huang Zhong behind and led an army of 15,000 to continue the siege of Kunyang. However, he led an army of 30,000 to the northwest and attacked Luyang City.

    How could Xin Ping not know this place like Luyang?

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from Luyang, the fierce tiger Sun Jian from the east of the Yangtze River, first conquered Liang County, then went to Yangren City, and then broke through Taigu Pass, one of the eight passes, and invaded Luoyang City in one fell swoop.

    "This guy Yan Liangis this guy going to attack Luoyang?" Xin Ping said in shock.

    "Look at this situation, it's probably true. Yan Liang, a thief, marched into Xudu with great fanfare, but suddenly he attacked Luoyang instead. We have fallen into his trap again." Jiang Qi gritted his teeth angrily.

    A big bead of sweat dropped from Xin Ping's forehead, his face became more and more serious, and he murmured: "If this is really the case, then the situation in Luoyang is critical"

    The guard of Luoyang City is Han Meng. Although this man is from Hebei, he became an important general of the Yuan family through the recommendation of Yuan Tan.

    Han Meng has about 10,000 troops. Since Xudu is guarding the south, Han Meng's troops are mainly used to guard against Cao Cao in the west and Yuan Shang and Guo Yuan's troops in Hanoi County on the other side of the Yellow River.

    Half of these 10,000 troops were deployed by Han Meng in Hongnong County, west of Luoyang. Coupled with the dangerous location of Hangu Pass, 5,000 troops were enough to resist the threat from Guanzhong.

    Of the other five thousand soldiers and horses, Han Meng deployed most of them on the south bank of the Yellow River, at the crossings of Mengjin and Heyin. However, the defenders on the Taigu line in the south were less than a thousand people.

    "The Taigu passes in the south are not steep and they are Luoyang's weak point. Now Yan Liang's 30,000 troops are marching north, how can they resist it? If Luoyang loses¡­¡±

    Xin Ping didn¡¯t dare to think about it any more, as a layer of cold sweat formed on his back.

    "Master Xin, Luoyang is in danger and we must not ignore it. Why not send people to Hebei quickly and ask the king to return to the army immediately for rescue." Jiang Qi added.

    Xin Ping shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is far away in Yecheng. When his army comes back for reinforcements, Luoyang may have been captured. Furthermore, if it causes your Majesty to withdraw his troops in a hurry and Yuan Shang takes advantage of the opportunity to counterattack, then we will be guilty even more."  ¡±

    Xin Ping rejected Jiang Qi¡¯s proposal.

    Jiang Qi¡¯s face became more and more anxious, ¡°That¡¯s what I say, but if we don¡¯t ask your Majesty to come back for help, are we going to just sit back and watch Luoyang fall and ignore it?¡±

    Xin Ping fell into silence, his eyebrows serious, thinking about how to deal with it.

    After a while, Xin Ping¡¯s frown relaxed, and a hint of confidence reappeared in the corner of his mouth.

    "The reason why Yan Liang dared to attack Luoyang was because Kunyang was besieged. If we can defeat the enemy in Kunyang, we can cut off Yan Liang's food road in one fell swoop. At that time, Yan Liang will have to retreat, and he will even be killed because of the food road.  was cut off and the whole army was disbanded."

    Hearing this, Jiang Qi's expression perked up, "Master Xin, could it be that you want to send troops to attack from Xudu, join forces with General Mu, and cooperate with the inside and outside to defeat the enemies besieging Kunyang in one fell swoop?"

    Xin commented: "The enemy in Kunyang is no more than 10,000, so General Jiang will lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack one enemy camp with 10,000 soldiers. We will definitely win in one battle. We only need to defeat one enemy camp, and it is expected that the enemy will be defeated."  The morale of the army will inevitably be in chaos, and the siege of Kunyang will be solved. When General Chiang succeeds in this great achievement, it will be strange that the King of Wei does not give him a generous reward. "

    Jiang Qi was very excited when he heard these words, and his anxious face was replaced by a high-spirited fighting spirit in the blink of an eye.

    "Master Xin has a good plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao. Well, Jiang will lead his troops to attack immediately. He will definitely crush Yan Liang's conspiracy and make this traitor pay a heavy price for his arrogance!"

    Xin Ping's face was also filled with pride, and he sneered secretly, "Yan Liang, Yan Liang, you humiliated my Xin Ping's intelligence during the previous surprise attack on Xudu. Today I will ask you to repay double"

    Luyang City.

    It has been three days since Yan Liang captured the city.

    Over the past three days, his nearly 20,000 infantry troops have successively started from Luyang and continued northward, heading towards the next city leading to Luoyang.

    There were only 6,000 soldiers and horses, but Yan Liang never used them.

    It was getting late, and in the Chinese military tent, Yan Liang was looking down at the map on the table, thinking about the military strategy.

    Ma Yunlu was by his side, looking at Yan Liang for a while, and then looking at the map, with a smile on his pretty face from time to time.

    This time, his concubine still insisted on going with the army, so Yan Liang simply made her his army commander just like he did when he attacked Chaisang.

    Footsteps sounded, the curtains were raised, and the aroma of meat floated in, but it was Lu Lingqi who entered with a bowl of hot soup.

    "Brother, I see that you have been working hard these past few days, so I let you endure it"

    When Lu Lingqi looked up, she found that Ma Yunlu was also in the tent. She stopped talking in the middle of the conversation, and a look of surprise flashed across her eyes.

    "Sister-in-lawsister-in-law, you are here too."

    Lu Lingqi's "sister-in-law" was very stiff and obviously not as cordial as when she called Huang Yueying.

    "It's no wonder that Huang Yueying was Yan Liang's wife as early as when she became sworn friends. Huang Yueying's temperament is also gentle and approachable, so Lu Lingqi has always regarded her as a sister.

    Ma Yunlu is about the same age as her. One of them is Ma Chao's sister, and the other is Lu Bu's daughter. Both of them are fierce men with outstanding martial arts skills in the world. They are both somewhat arrogant in their hearts, but they don't like each other very much.

    No matter how famous Ma Chao is, he cannot be as powerful as Lu Bu. Lu Lingqi feels that she is one level higher than Ma Yunlu, but Ma Yunlu's identity is so important that she has to call her "sister-in-law."

    When Ma Yunlu saw Lu Lingqi coming in with soup, a strange color flashed between his brows, but immediately a smile appeared on his face as white as jade.

    "It's rare that sister Lingqi cares so much about your adopted brother. It's really hard on you. Leave it to me."

    Ma Yunlu stepped forward with a smile and took the soup bowl from Lu Lingqi's hand.

    Although Lu Lingqi was reluctant, she could only force a smile and give away the soup she had made with her own hands.

    "Husband, let me feed you."

    Ma Yunlu is deeply influenced by Hu Feng, and he is not so rigid. He will not take it seriously when Lu Lingqi is present. He is actually very considerate and feeds Yan Liang with a spoon.

    Yan Liang is the kind of person who goes his own way and doesn¡¯t care about other people¡¯s opinions.?My woman was gentle and caring, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about, so she calmly drank the soup that Ma Yunlu personally fed into her mouth.

    Lu Lingqi saw this and slightly flattened the corners of her mouth, secretly showing her displeasure.

    "Lingqi, you made this soup well. Brother Wei likes it very much."

    Yan Liang couldn't see what his adopted sister was thinking, so he didn't forget to praise her.

    This was an understatement of praise, but Lu Lingqi was so happy when she heard it. The displeasure on her face disappeared, and a happy smile suddenly bloomed on her pretty face.

    While feeling secretly happy in her heart, Lu Lingqi suddenly remembered something and said: "Brother, all the generals were sent by you to attack Luoyang, but my little sister stayed here and did nothing. She also wants to go into battle to kill the enemy. I beg you."  The sworn brother agreed."

    As soon as he finished speaking, the warehouse outside the tent hurriedly entered.

    "My lord, this is an urgent message from General Huang of Kunyang."

    Yan Liang's expression was shocked, and he quickly folded the silk book and took a look. A sneer with murderous intent emerged from the corner of his mouth, which was still slightly stained by soup.

    "Qiqi, do you know why my brother wants to keep you?" Yan Liang put down the book and asked.

    Lu Lingqi was startled and shook her head blankly.

    Yan Liang stood up abruptly, with murderous intent surging in his blade-like eyes, and sneered: "Because you are a hidden sharp blade under Brother Wei's command. Brother Wei wants to save you to deliver the most fatal blow to the enemy."  (To be continued)
