Yuan Shu was so angry that he almost vomited blood again.

He never expected that Yan Xiang not only did not beg for mercy, but instead died generously, and before he died, he dared to count him down openly in front of his ministers.

"Give me 10,000 pieces of his corpse! Break him to pieces! Yuan Shuxi roared and screamed at the bottom, and his lungs were about to explode.

In the main hall, the ministers trembled, and they didn't dare to take a breath of the atmosphere.

Yuan Shu sat down on the dragon seat, gasping for breath for a long time before he gradually calmed down his anger.

Then, he glared at the ministers and shouted: "The country has reached such an autumn of survival, are you all dumb, why don't you come up with an idea, what is the use of raising you!" ”

None of the ministers dared to squeak, the 50,000 army was defeated by Su Zhe, who of them could have the courage to fight against Su Zhe.

At this time, the general Ji Ling stood up and said resolutely: "The minister failed to defend Ruyin before, and the crime deserves death, and the minister is willing to defend Fengtai City to the death, and block Su Zhe's troops for His Majesty." ”

At the critical moment, it was Ji Ling, the most trusted general of Yuan Shu, who stood up to provoke the beam.

Yuan Shu was overjoyed, and immediately dragged his fat figure up and down the steps, helped Ji Ling up with both hands, stroked his shoulders and said: "Ji Ling, you are worthy of following me for decades, and you are my most reliable person, and my life and death are all entrusted to your shoulders." ”

Ji Ling's eyes filled with tears, and he arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers will live and die with Fengtai City, the city is in the people, and the city is dead!" ”

"Good, good." Yuan Shu nodded with satisfaction, "I will give you 10,000 soldiers and horses, you set off quickly to defend Fengtai City for me and block the attack of the Su thief." ”

Ji Ling didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately led the troops away.

Seeing Ji Ling go away, Yuan Shu breathed a sigh of relief a little, and calmed down a little from Fang Cai's anger.

At this time, Prime Minister Yang Hong, who had been silent, rolled his eyes a few times, suddenly stepped forward, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has the courage to remind me, I only have less than 20,000 soldiers and horses left in Shouchun, and Ji Ling alone will take half of them, in case he sees that the situation is not good and surrenders to the Su thief, won't everything be over!" ”

"Surrender? You say it's possible for Ji Ling to betray me? Yuan Shu looked shocked, but shook his head again and said, "Ji Ling has followed me for decades and has always been loyal, I don't believe that he will betray me. ”

Yang Hong sighed: "People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, I heard that the Yingkou fell a few days ago, Su Zhe's raft passed from Ruyin City, from under Ji Ling's nose, it was hundreds of rafts, Ji Ling didn't notice it at all, and he didn't send a warning to His Royal Highness the Prince, didn't Your Majesty realize that this matter is a little strange?" ”

Yuan Shu's body shook suddenly, a trace of horror swept up in his eyes, and he asked, "You mean, Ji Ling secretly communicated with the Su thief and deliberately released water?" ”

Yang Hong was relieved again: "The minister is just worried, after all, this is just a superficial guess, there is no conclusive evidence, but after all, you have to be careful." ”

Yuan Shu's eyes became more and more suspicious, he paced back and forth a few steps, and said in a deep voice: "What you said is extremely true, Ji Ling must be guarded, I will call him back and send others to Fengtai." ”

"Not really." Yang Hong said again: "Ji Ling is the number one general under His Majesty, and only he can resist Su Zhe, and he still has to use him, but he has to send a powerful minister trusted by His Majesty to monitor him in case he has different intentions." ”

Yuan Shu nodded again and again, pondered for a moment, and suddenly his eyes flashed, and he looked at Yang Hong: "Since this is the case, then you will have Prime Minister Lao to go and go to Fengtai to monitor Ji Ling for me." ”

A hint of joy flashed in Yang Hong's eyes, but he hurriedly arched his hand, and said: "Your Majesty trusts the minister so much, please rest assured that Your Majesty will definitely monitor Ji Ling well, and tell him to guard the city for Your Majesty, and dare not have the slightest dissent." ”

Yuan Shu nodded with satisfaction, brushed his hand and said, "Without further ado, the prime minister should hurry up." ”

Yang Hong retreated, and the hall was quiet again.

Yuan Shuchang exhaled a breath and looked back at the beauties who were serving on the side, the previous shock and the pain of losing a child were forgotten in a blink of an eye.

"Anyway, as long as I am the emperor for one day, I must enjoy the taste of the emperor, if there is wine today and drunk first tomorrow, he will be flooded tomorrow!"

After Yuan Shu naturally comforted him, he opened his arms and pounced on the beauties, and laughed: "Concubines, I'm here, don't run~~"

In the main hall, the sound of laughter sounded again.

……

A day later, forty miles west of Shouchun, Fengtai City.

Ji Ling was stationed at the west gate of Fengtai, looking at the Soviet army outside the city from afar, his brows were tightly locked, and his expression was solemn.

I saw that outside the West Gate, tens of thousands of Soviet troops were pressed together, and there was no end in sight, just under his nose, calmly forcing the city to go down.

Obviously, the Soviet army was fearless, and they were not afraid that he would go out of the city and destroy the camp.

Of course, Ji Ling didn't have the guts, after the previous defeat, he had deeply understood Su Zhe's resourcefulness, and now he didn't dare to take the initiative to attack if he was given ten guts, who could know if Su Zhe had set a trap again, waiting for him to jump into the pit.

"It seems that the future will not be easy......" Ji Ling sighed, and there seemed to be a bit of lack of confidence in his tone.

Yang Hong glanced at Ji Ling, and seemed to hear a hint from his words, so he sighed: "Who said no, right now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has died in battle, the people are disheartened, the morale of the soldiers is low, and they want to resist Su Zhe's attack, but I am afraid that it will be more auspicious and less auspicious, has General Ji carefully considered the future future." ”

"Back road, what back road can there be!" Ji Ling's face swelled with determination in a blink of an eye, his fist hit the battlements, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty treats me like a mountain, I will repay me with death, even if I fight to the last person, I will live and die with Fengtai!" ”

Looking at Ji Ling's posture, he actually made up his mind to die.

Yang Hong wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them hard.

As soon as the words turned, generosity swelled up on his face, and he resolutely said: "What General Ji said is extremely true, I, Yang Hongding, should work together with General Ji to defend the city and live and die with Fengtai to repay Your Majesty's kindness." ”

When he said these generous words, Yang Hong quietly glanced at Ji Ling, but there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.

At night, outside the city, the Soviet army camp.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, all the generals gathered to discuss the plan to break the city.

The veteran Huang Zhong advocated that taking advantage of the aftermath of the victory in Yingkou, the whole army would immediately attack the city tomorrow and take Fengtai in one go.

Another veteran, Huangfu Song, did not advocate a strong attack

His reason was that after the defeat of the Yingkou army, the rest of the Huainan army was in turmoil, and Liu Bei and Sun Ce took this opportunity to make some progress.

This means that the final outcome of this battle against Yuan Shu is likely to be that the three-way soldiers and horses will meet under Shouchun City.

At that time, the key was not to break Shouchun, but to destroy Yuan Shu and the confrontation with Liu Bei and Sun Ce.

Therefore, Huangfu Song advocated that it was necessary to capture Fengtai at the lowest cost, and even break Shouchun, so as to preserve his strength to deal with Liu Bei and Sun Ce.

For a time, there was a dispute in the account.

At this moment, the soldiers outside the tent hurriedly entered and enshrined a secret letter to Su Zhe.

Su Zhe opened the letter and couldn't help but smile.
