Chapter 68: The Tragic Sound of the Five Watches (2)


The battle did not last long, and the five thousand vanguards quickly withdrew.

Just when the people in the city breathed a sigh of relief, another wave of people came up like a tide, continuing the unfinished siege mission just now.

But it didn't last long either, and he withdrew again.

This was repeated for several rounds, and by the end of the day all the forbidden troops in the city were exhausted.

That night, in the Chinese army's tent, a man in a wheelchair looked at the generals walking from outside the tent, raised the corners of his lips and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your hard work, generals."

Meng Jue said puzzledly: "I don't understand why Mr.

Gu asked us to attack the city with great force every time, and repeated it many times, and then hastily withdraw the troops before the sun goes down."

Gu Mingxuan smiled understandingly and asked without answering: "How are the casualties of our army?"

"There were very few casualties.

Because we had emphasized the need to preserve combat power before the war, and the time was short, it did not constitute major casualties."

He narrowed his clear eyes, coughed and asked, "Chen Ye, what do you think?"

The handsome and slender young man was now wearing a black armor, with a palm-width heavy sword on his waist.

The whole person looked bright, restrained, calm and iron-blooded.

There is no trace of the open air that he used to have when he was wearing a toga.

Chenye came out and said: "Students believe that the massive attack in turns is to disturb the enemy's morale and make the local area tired of defense and expose its weaknesses.

General Meng has served as the commander of the Forbidden Army for a long time, and the 80,000 Forbidden Army can be considered his old department.

The general's role as the vanguard can serve as a deterrent.

Furthermore, the imperial capital's defense capability is weak and its weapon inventory is very small.

If it is not replenished in time after a day's consumption, our Shen Yu army will inevitably be unable to survive.

With a large amount of combat power, we will definitely be able to fight to the death.”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of applause from outside the tent, and a cold voice came in: "Well said."

The person who came was none other than Ning Yan, wearing a light robe slowly and walking leisurely, as if a stream of clear water flowed into the tent filled with an iron-blooded killing aura.

"See the eldest princess."

All the generals bowed down one after another.

"Pingshen."

There was a soft smile on her lips, and her voice was neither sad nor happy but had a hint of calming power.

She looked around and her eyes fell on the white-robed man in the wheelchair, her cold eyes a little warmer.

She stepped forward, leaned over and twirled the blanket covering his legs.

"Thank you for your hard work, A-Xuan."

The red lips parted lightly, smiling lightly.

After saying that, she turned back to everyone in Shen Yujun and said loudly: "First of all, Ning Yan would like to thank you all in advance.

Shen Yujun can be said to be a strong army that Ning Yan has single-handedly supported, and everyone here has learned from it.

Each of the warriors selected from the 300,000-strong army is a famous Donghe general who can stand alone.

Ning Yan is very grateful that you can spare no effort to help Ning Yan. " Meng Jue said respectfully: "The princess has made a serious statement.

All my subordinates will follow her wholeheartedly and are willing to do everything for the princess."

Everyone behind him also said: "I am willing to die for the princess."

"But everyone knows that if you embark on this road, you will be named a rebel.

It can be said that there is no way out.

If you want to quit now, you can still stand up.

I will not touch you at all.

You are retreating to the mountains and forests.

I don’t care whether you join me in the imperial capital or do something shameful behind the scenes, or if you turn against me on the battlefield, you should understand my methods."

Her voice became colder, and she glanced sharply around the sand table.

All the generals of Shen Yu's army standing there.

Most people were silent as usual, but some people's faces were already pale, and their hands unconsciously reached the hilt of their swords.

Gu Mingxuan, who had been sitting silently at the back, suddenly tapped his palm twice, and two black figures rushed in from outside the tent, one on the left and one on the right, holding up a trembling body.

Meng Jue was shocked and said: "Zhaowu you" This man has a long and narrow face, deep outlines, and a slightly raised nose.

He looks quite handsome.

But now his face was pale and his eyes were dull.

At the same time as he was restrained, the hand holding the sword hilt was weakly released.

"What else do you have to say?"

There was a trace of sadness in the glazed eyes.

This is the person she personally promoted, but now she has to deal with it herself.

Qin Zhaowu slowly broke away, walked to Ning Yan, took off his helmet, knelt down and kowtowed heavily.

"The crime will be speechless before the princess," his voice trembled.

"What did you do or what did he ask you to do?"

Ning Yan took a deep breath.

"He asked General Sin to poison him.

General Sin had no choice but to replace the poison with laxatives."

Everyone in the tent gasped, Gu Mingxuan clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It's really not poisonous and not a husband."

For a moment, the tent was as silent as death.

Until the burning oil lamp suddenly exploded, waking everyone up.

Qin Zhaowu still kept his prone posture and did not get up for a long time.

Ning Yan said: "Tell me the reason."

"The guilty minister is willing to die to apologize, just asking the eldest princess to rescue the guilty minister's family who is trapped in the imperial capital.

The guilty minister will also be grateful for the princess's kindness and virtue.

In the next life, he will wear a grass ring and work as a cow or a horse.

To repay the princess for her kindness."

After that, he kowtowed three times, then took out the long sword from his waist and tried to wipe it off his neck.

Everyone hurriedly stopped him, but they were completely powerless.

At the same time, something came through the air and hit the sword blade with a clear sound.

The force was so great that the sword in Qin Zhaowu's hand flew out and he fell to the ground.

Ning Yan looked at a jade chess piece that was broken on the ground, and then looked back at Gu Mingxuan helplessly.

"I can't find anything else."

Gu Mingxuan smiled, his eyes bright.

Ning Yan turned around and said in a serious voice: "Come here, take him down and imprison him.

No one is allowed to see him without my order."

"Yes."

Two soldiers outside the tent came in, helped Qin Zhaowu up and took him down.

He lowered his head and walked on the edge of the knife every step of the way.

Ning Yan let out a long sigh.

She had to give everyone an explanation when it came to the life and death of all the soldiers.

There are too many alternatives in this world, too many for her to take care of them all.

But in the end, all the blame lies with her.

It was she who started the war in Donghe, who made so many people homeless, and who ignored the common people for her own selfish interests.

Now the whole Donghe is at war with those who support her and those who oppose her.

The Xiliang army quietly Silently stationed troops at the border, just waiting for any disturbance here before sending the army eastward.

Unconsciously, he became a sinner for the ages.

Sure enough, many soldiers began to suffer from mild diarrhea during the night.

There was a lot of diarrhea, but fortunately the weight was relatively light.

Ning Yan took Meng Jue to inspect each camp and sent people to gather all the soldiers with diarrhea.

He also sent people to invite He Mu who was placed in the village.

He sighed secretly in his heart, thankful that Qin Zhaowu had replaced the poison with laxatives, otherwise this hilltop would have turned into a tomb tomorrow.

Yun Xiu recited the name silently in her heart, and turned her gaze to the majestic imperial city on the west side of Lancui Mountain
