Zhen Ming smiled bitterly and said: "Then when I didn't say it, even if I overestimated the king, thinking that the king was a hero who dared to act and was decisive and brave, but I didn't think that he was a coward who cowered and didn't dare to act. ”

Sun Xuanya looked at him and said with a smile: "I have heard that the general of the secret guard is treacherous and cunning, scheming, good at winning more with less, sowing discord, when I see it today, it is really better to be famous than to meet, if you provoke me and Brother Zhang like this, are you not afraid that I will really kill you?" ”

Zhen Mingku's face was not afraid: "I'm not worried about this, if the king is a lard and arrogant fool, my words, the king may not be able to see through me to sow discord, if the king is a smart person who knows everything, he should know that what I said sounds like provocation on the surface, but in fact it is also a fact, whether the king kills me or not, it is difficult to change this fait accompli, Zhang Jin said that if he is arrested by Yang Shanhui, it is the luck of the king, if he escapes back, the king has made such a great achievement, he will be suspicious, as the so-called one mountain does not tolerate two tigers." , the king either handed over his military power and returned to the field, or he fought with him, and there was no other way. ”

Sun Xuanya said coldly: "No matter how reasonable you say, it has nothing to do with whether I kill you or not, if you don't want to die, give me a reason not to kill you." ”

"Don't hide it from the king, Qinghe City County Shou Yang Shanhui used to be my subordinate, as long as I repair a book, Zhang Jin said that he will immediately die in Qinghe City, when the king takes me hostage, attacking Qinghe City will be able to get twice the result with half the effort, maybe you can also not fight the soldiers of the Qu people, and then the next city, you must know that Qinghe City is not comparable to this Ping'en City, with a large population, sufficient grain and grass, prosperous and rich, with it as the national capital, left and right, become a party overlord, it is not difficult, and so even if the world is decided, the city will take refuge in the Ming Lord, and you can also be crowned king and worship the prime minister, Therefore, leaving me alive will only benefit the king and do no harm. ”

Sun Xuanya's eyes flashed with a hint of heartbeat, but her mouth said, "How can this king fall for you", called left and right, took Zhen Mingbitter down, sat on the chair and pondered for a long time, suddenly gritted his teeth, passed the order, and revoked Zhang Jin's order to slaughter all the people in Ping'en City.

……

Thousands of miles away under the city of Wei County, Yang Shanhui rode on his horse, looking at the dense defenders on the wall of Wei County, and his brows furrowed deeply.

Half a month has passed, according to Zhen's plan, most of the defenders of Wei County at this time have been led away by the army of Xingyang, and the garrison in the city is empty, he led the army to attack at this time, but he did not expect that the garrison in Wei County was tens of thousands of people, and there was no sign of emptiness at all.

The 50,000 soldiers he brought to attack day and night, originally planned to capture Wei County within half a month, but he didn't expect that it would be a stalemate so far.

The Xingyang reinforcements he had been looking forward to for a long time were also nowhere to be seen at this time, Zhen Mingbitter said that he had sent someone to inform the Xingyang guards, according to the plan, there would be no such mistakes, unless Yu Wenhua and his men still had 50,000, but according to the intelligence, Yu Wenhua and anxious like a lost dog, most of the belongings had already been lost along the way, and even more than 100,000 soldiers had escaped to less than 30,000.

"Qinghe Urgent!"

Yang Shanhui's expression was dazed, and he hurriedly shouted: "Express it!" ”

A scarred messenger ran in from outside the tent and fell to the ground, Yang Shanhui was taken aback, hurriedly caught up with him, and helped him to ask, "What's wrong!" What happened? ”

The messenger took out a bloodstained letterhead from his bosom and said weakly: "Dou Jiande of Qizhou took advantage of the emptiness in Qinghe City and led an army of 100,000 to besiege Qinghe City!" The queen sent her subordinates to break out of the city at night to report to the general, asking the general to return to help quickly! ”

"What!" Yang Shanhui was shocked and hurriedly asked, "How is the queen mother now?" ”

"The subordinates don't know, when the subordinates went out of the barracks, a group of thieves rushed into the barracks in the dark, trying to kidnap the queen's mother, and then the camp was on fire, and the subordinates had the order of the mother, and did not dare to delay, and went out of the city to fight out of the siege to ventilate and report the news......"

Not long after this man finished speaking, a stream of blood foamed from the arrow wound on his back, and he couldn't support it anymore, opened his mouth wide, his eyes were blank, and he was killed violently.

Yang Shanhui got up angrily and paced back and forth in the tent, asking people to gather all the generals in the tent to discuss countermeasures, and they all felt that this attack on Wei County would not be able to be overcome for a while and a half, and they all advocated withdrawing the army and returning to defense.

After some discussion, Yang Shanhui ordered the withdrawal of the army.

As soon as the military order was delivered, the besieging army immediately retreated three miles, reorganized its armaments, set up a break, and withdrew in an orderly manner.

……

The defenders of Yu Culture and the city saw Yang Shanhui's troops evacuate from the city tower, and hurriedly reported to Pei Qiantong, Pei Qiantong went upstairs to find out the truth and determined that Yang Shanhui was withdrawing, he was also a battle-hardened figure, without the slightest hesitation, and immediately ordered 20,000 soldiers and horses to go out of the city to pursue.

The two armies moved in the direction of Qinghe City while fighting, and two days later, when they approached a hundred miles of Qinghe City, Yang Shanhui's army suffered heavy casualties.

Yang Shan saw that it was not a way to fight while fleeing like this, and if it went on like this, before the army entered Qinghe City, it had already been divided by the pursuers, scattered and fled, and was preparing to camp in place, but the sentry in front came with news that there was a cavalry of 5,000 people intercepted ten miles ahead.

It is foreseeable that under the attack of the two sides, the army of the other side has no danger to defend, and there is no way to escape, and it will eventually end up defeated and killed.

In the place of death, Yang Shanhui calmed down instead, deployed all armies and battalions, and resisted desperately.

Yang Shanhui's army resisted stubbornly for ten days, and the enemy was at the end, Pei Qiantong learned that Dou Jiande, the king of Xia, was attacking Qinghe City with all his might, and Yang Shanhui was stubbornly resisting in front of him, and he became more and more anxious, and the frequency of attacks became more and more frequent.

……

On the fifteenth day, Yang Shanhui found that the attack from the west had dropped sharply, and sent spies to investigate, but found that Pei Qiantong's army was secretly retreating.

"What's going on? Pei Qiantong should know that Qinghe City is being attacked by Dou Jiande, I can't return to the city, and the food and grass in the army are also exhausted, it is a good time to attack, how can I suddenly retreat? ”

"Yes, it must be that the army of Xingyang has arrived and is attacking Wei County......"

Yang Shanhui guessed the reason, but smiled bitterly, "Even so, what's the point, originally planned to lead Yu Wenhua and the army to the direction of Liyang, wait for Wei County to be empty, and then lead the army to fight a quick battle, capture Wei County within three days, and gallop to aid Ping'en City, but now it is a thousand miles away, I am afraid that Qinghe City is in danger...... General Zhen, I just hope that you can learn as soon as possible and respond in time. ”

As soon as Pei Qiantong retreated, Yang Shanhui concentrated his forces, turned the defense into an attack, and caught the cavalry sent by Dou Jiande to intercept him by surprise and retreated in defeat.

Yang Shanhui was able to bring more than 10,000 weak Qinghe troops into Qinghe City, but at this time, Qinghe City was empty because of its defenses, and Zhang Jin said that the rogues lurking in the city set fire everywhere, and the Qinghe East City Tower had been broken by Dou Jiande's army.
