Many people didn't care, "what can the army of Dongchu do to us? What's the use of a few ordinary people?"
Zhennan king said in a deep voice: "in short, without the king's command, it is not allowed to kill the people of Eastern Chu at will."
"Report to the king, Yuan Pei broke out with tens of thousands of Mohist troops and went to Jiangxia."
Smell speech, Zhennan Wang frowned, "how to return a responsibility?"
"The people sent by Shizi to block Yuan Pei were ambushed and the whole army was destroyed. Moreover, Yuan Pei seemed to be very clear about our army's layout and terrain. He took his men and soldiers and went through the cracks of our army in several ways. Although he lost some men and horses, the main force of the Mohist army did not suffer much damage. "
"Report to the king, I just received the news from the South Route Army. Three days ago, the son of a son was attacked and seriously injured."
Zhennan Wang suddenly rose, "how's Tengfeng?"
"The son of God is no longer in danger, but he is seriously injured. I'm afraid he can't lead the army for a short time."
The king of Zhennan bowed his head and pondered for a long time. On the other hand, he slowly suppressed his anger in his heart. He waved his hand and said, "I know. Go down first."
Originally a big account of jubilant, because of this one after another news atmosphere depressed. For a long time, I heard the king of Zhennan laugh and say, "well, the king's house is really a high man. This time, the king did not win."
"Lord?"
"Well, send someone to tell Tengfeng that the king of the South Route Army will send someone else to accept it, so that he can feel Xinyang coming as soon as possible." Zhennan Wang waved his hand and said calmly, "anyway, Xinyang is ours after all. Let him take charge of the overall situation. The king will not believe that they can fly. They must still be in the city
"Yes."
On the road after the heavy rain, Ye Li rode his horse in front of the army, but his eyebrows were tight and he was silent. Nan Hou and others followed her and asked, "what's wrong with the princess?" Ye Li shook his head and said, "nothing. I'm worried about the situation in Xinyang." South Hou puzzling pick eyebrows, Xinyang city lost is a foregone conclusion, what else to worry about? Ye Li frowned and looked at the side of the road, because he didn't walk in an official way. All the way, there was a steady stream of people fleeing from the northwest. Looking at the dishevelled appearance of these people, Ye Li only feels that there are five flavors in his heart. As a matter of fact, the present situation of the war is mostly due to the open and covert fighting in the court. If we had prepared early and sent reinforcements in time, what would have happened. In any era, people will always be the most injured in the war. Ye Li was a little trance and thought of a sentence that the teacher had taught in his previous life – Xing, the common people are suffering. People suffer when they die.
"Princess." Zhuo Jing drove his horse to catch up with him from behind, and rode to Ye Li, half a horse behind him in a low voice.
Ye Li pulled the reins a little, slowed down, and looked at Zhuo Jing. Zhuo Jing said in a deep voice: "just came the news, Xinyang broke."
Ye Li nodded and looked as usual. Xinyang lost this is what everyone expected. He pondered for a moment and asked, "how about general yuan?"
"General yuan has taken people back to Jiangxia. But… " Zhuo Jing hesitated for a moment, "just received the news. Xiling Army The city of Xinyang has been slaughtered! "
"What?" Ye Li's face sank, and her originally graceful eyebrows were instantly infected with a layer of cold frost. Nanhou, who was nearest to them, obviously heard Zhuo Jing's words. The reins in his hand shook and soon stabilized. He just looked at Zhuo Jing and did not speak. Zhuo Jing said in a low voice: "after the Xiling army entered the city, there was a conflict with the people in the city. After that, the general Zheng Bian, who took the lead in attacking the city, ordered the slaughter of Xinyang."
"What do you mean by the southern king of Xiling town?"
"Zhennan king didn't go to the front line. It was too late for him to stop him. Xinyang At least two-thirds of the people died. " Zhuo Jing's voice is a little dry and dumb. It is the first time that a city has been slaughtered since the founding of the great Chu state. This is unacceptable to many officers and men.
Ye Li sneered and ran forward with the reins. South Hou Leng for a moment, some do not understand to look at one side of Zhuo Jing. Zhuo Jing hesitated for a moment, followed up. Ye Li did not go far, but stopped at the roadside and looked at the fleeing people passing by in silence. Zhuo Jing whispered: "princess." Ye Li looked back at him and casually played with the whip. He said, "someone once said to me that it is a shame for soldiers and the country to let ordinary people experience the war in person."
Zhuo Jing advised: "this is not the princess's fault."
Ye Li shook his head and said with a cold smile, "is Zheng Bian His head is fixed, and the palace is set. My concubine wants his head to sacrifice the spirit of the people in Xinyang City! "
"I understand that Zheng Bian's head will be hung on the wall of Xinyang City within ten days."
Seven days later, when the king of Zhennan came to Jiangxia, Lei Tengfeng, who stayed in Xinyang, sent a secret letter. Zheng Bian, who also stayed in Xinyang City, was killed in his room, but his head was hung on the head of Xinyang City. Beside his head, there was a fixed character of flying dragon and Phoenix. It clearly shows that the murderer is the palace of Dingguo. After receiving Lei Tengfeng's secret letter, Zhennan Wang's face was as deep as water. After pondering for a moment, he returned a letter from Lei Tengfeng, and then ordered to step up the attack on Jiangxia.Jiangxia small town is only 200 li away from Xinyang. The area of the city is less than one-third of that of the belief, and the area is narrow on three sides surrounded by mountains. However, for this small city, the military force expended by Xiling is equivalent to the sum of several cities conquered before. The Xiling army, which had been invincible all the way, finally saw the real strength of the great Chu army in front of such a small city. The king of Zhennan, who even conquered a big city like Xinyang, did not personally come to the battlefield. This time, he stood behind the army, stood on the hillock, and watched the soldiers of the two armies keep pestering and killing each other. The soldiers in black on the tower seem to be indefatigable and keep beating down the enemies who want to climb the wall.
"Wang Ye, I didn't expect that a small town of 50000 people would be so difficult. Should we do something about it? " The general standing behind him asked in a low voice, and his eyes were full of frustration and shadow when he looked at the black figure on the tower. This is the mark of the countless blood and life of Mohist army deeply engraved in the heart of every enemy in the past 100 years.
The king of Zhennan sighed: "fortunately, the emperor of Chu didn't trust dingguowangfu very much."
None of the generals behind him asked why, because they were just as happy. If the great Chu monarchs and ministers know each other and trust each other, why worry about the world's injustice?
"Day and night, step up the attack. We must take Jiangxia before the reinforcements of dingwangfu arrive! " Zhennan Wang Li voice way.
"The last general will take orders!"
On the distant city wall, a gray haired Veteran General Yuan Pei was staring at the enemy's sword eyebrows that never seemed to retreat under the city. A pair of insight into the world's eyes are full of red blood and fatigue, but his back is straight, staring at the eyes of the city is full of determination to live and die with Jiang Xia.
