It is better to attack His Royal Highness than to compete in the world

The main force of Xijing was placed on Bei Mo, and the army of Nanzhou did not encounter much resistance.Chu Luo also understands that Nanzhou can mainly support supplies such as food and grass. The actual combat effectiveness of the army is not strong, so the marching speed is not fast. The main purpose is to escort food and grass to ensure safety.

Ye Lingkuang was not so relaxed. Ever since he received the news that Nanzhou would send troops to support him, Ye Lingkuang felt the pressure. Xijing's army attacked desperately.In the Xijingduo Plain, the cavalry were waiting for work in the city. Once they found the Beimo army stronghold, they would attack immediately.Although Beimo has vigorously developed horse breeding under the instruction of Ren Chengqing for so many years, and the horses from Pingshan City have been sent to the battlefield in a steady stream, but one is limited by time, and the other is limited by region. The losing streak has demoralized the entire army

After finally waiting for the Nanzhou army, the morale suddenly increased. The Nanzhou army has a large number of people. Although the overall quality is not strong, the number sometimes represents vitality, which still gives great hope to the Beimo army. A large amount of food and grass has been brought to Zhouzhou, and there is no need to worry about food, which is indeed gratifying.

A small reception banquet was held for Chu Luo, and the two sides immediately threw themselves into the busy military affairs.The Nanzhou army has been here for more than three days, but they have not taken the initiative to go to the battlefield. Even Chu Luo is a little embarrassed. In this meeting, Chu Luo took the initiative to invite Ying to attack the city.

Ye Lingkuang has other plans: "Princess, don't worry, the Xijing army has been abnormally strong these past few days. This commander feels that something is abnormal. I suspect that the Emperor Xijing is coming."

"How is this possible?" Chu Luo couldn't believe it. There were very few kings in Nanzhou who were personally conquered. What's more, Xijing was in a mess and they took the opportunity to attack. How could Xijing calm the chaos so quickly.

"The princess does not know that Xijing is a martial artist. If Jingyuan can defeat our two countries in one fell swoop at this time, he will definitely be admired by the whole country. Then those rebellions in the country will not be a problem. Moreover, Xijing's laws are not so strict. Compared with any imperial edict, Yuxi, the army is the best guarantee for the throne. I see that in the past few days, there have been frequent messengers coming and going in Xijing City, and their ranks are not low. Moreover, my lord has also informed that Xijing's army has been greatly mobilized and has the intention to come to the border. , is almost the soldier of the whole country."

"Then, what is General Ye going to do?"

"I don't think too much. If Jingyuan is really the imperial conquest, I'm afraid we won't be able to defend here. The princess brought a lot of food and grass to support us this time. If Jingyuan comes, he will definitely take a fancy to this batch of supplies. Once he With this batch of supplies, we not only lost our soldiers, but also lost our wife. Therefore, I dared to leave only [-] days of rations, and the remaining food was divided into three batches and transported to my North Desert, and put into Yanhui City , Qingdai City, back to the city. These three cities have convenient transportation and strong defenses. Once we are defeated, we still have a way to retreat. If we capture it, it will not take too much effort to transport some food and grass. How about this move."

"The general is very cunning, don't you know this escort?"

"I would like to invite the princess and the prince to complete it together. At the same time, I suspect that the enemy's raids will be intensified, so our patrols must also be strengthened. I will also incorporate soldiers from Nanzhou into the patrol team. I don't know what the princess wants. .”

"Of course I have no objection." Incorporating Nanzhou soldiers into patrols is an expression of trust; letting Nanzhou soldiers escort food and grass, the risk factor is relatively low, and it is also an expression of care, but I am here to fight.

"Princess, don't misunderstand me. Long before the princess came, your lord told me that you should not avoid relatives and estrangements. They are all family members, and they are only suitable. In my opinion, Nanzhou does not fight all the year round. The combat effectiveness of the army, with all due respect , not high, against Shangxijing, there is absolutely no chance of winning, I don’t think there is any need to make such a meaningless sacrifice. As for the escort of grain and grass, Nanzhou has a lot of grain, not to mention that this batch of grain and grass are all brought by Nanzhou brothers, familiar, I think this task belongs to the princess. As for the patrol, we are going to the outside world together, as it should be."

"It's Chu Luo who thinks too much, and I hope General Haihan." After hearing Ye Lingkuang's words, Chu Luo realized that this young general was not as brave and resourceful as she thought. Seeing Chu Luo looking up at him, Ye Ling Kuang also smiled at Chu Luo. To be honest, he was so busy these three days that he didn't have much contact with the princess of Nanzhou except for a glance at the princess of Nanzhou on the first day. No one can compare to our queen, but I contacted her today and found that this Nanzhou princess is actually not bad.

"Then please take good care of the princess." At this time, Ren Chengzhuo stood up to speak, and Chu Luo's gaze shifted from Ye Lingkuang to Ren Chengzhuo.Beimo is really a strange country, a prince's posture can be so low, and a courtier's momentum dares to overwhelm the prince.The three discussed the specific details and prepared separately.

The next day, Chu Luo and Ren Chengzhuo escorted the first batch of grain and grass to Yanhui City. In addition to grain, they also filled a large amount of straw and left the camp with a high profile, making a feeling of taking away all the grain. The army is also excellent.Ye Lingkuang sent someone to spread the word in private, and received a secret report that the Emperor Xijing wanted to conquest in person, and took the opportunity of escorting food and grass to send the prince of Beimo and Princess Nanzhou to take refuge in Beimo City.

Ren Chengzhuo and Chu Luo were also happy to put on a leisurely tour. Anyway, apart from some troops from Nanzhou, Ye Lingkuang also sent troops in private.

Yanhui City was originally only three days away, so if you hurry up, you can reach it in one day.On the first day, the scouts who explored the road found many spies from Xijing. Chu Luo and Ren Chengzhuo looked at each other and smiled, and they were still fooled.The two deliberately slowed down their marching speed, intending to hold back Xijing's army as much as possible.The day before yesterday, the three of them made a plan. Xijing's army attacked the grain and grass. If there were few people, Ren Chengzhuo would set off a flame bomb. If the army has a large number of people, they will release two flame bombs to burn the food and grass, and the two will retreat to Yanhui City. Ye Lingkuang will attack the city when there are few troops in Xijing City.All three of them expected that Xijing would not attack the grain and grass so quickly, and it was better to make a move in the middle of the journey, so as to have time to attack and prevent being flanked.

The next day was almost noon, and the two of them had finished washing, and the army started to set off. Not long after they set off, the sound of trampling horseshoes broke the calm, and the whole army was on alert. It was indeed a bloody Beimo army that came. "Your Highness, Xijing attacked the barracks in the early hours of this morning, and the Emperor Xijing has already arrived at the front line."

Chu Luo wanted to lead troops back to support immediately, but was held back by Ren Chengzhuo. "Take all the cavalry back to support, and the Nanzhou infantry will continue to escort the grain and grass." Ren Chengzhuo quickly ordered, the cavalry was taken away, and the remaining soldiers threw away unnecessary camouflage, and the group speeded up to Yanhui City.

"His Royal Highness, this?"

"You and I have no effect on this battle, and going back will only increase the burden. Similarly, the infantry is not very useful to the cavalry in Shangxijing, and it will only increase the killing. I don't know why, but it must be The plan went wrong, since Xijing has already attacked the barracks, the food must not be kept, so only ours are left here, and we will complete the original task."

"Your Highness is sensible, beyond my expectation."

"No, but before leaving, the imperial sister told me that only by cherishing life and my own life can the family rule the country; cherishing the lives of soldiers can be invincible; cherishing the lives of the people can make the world return to one's heart." Chu Luoruo thought Thinking, the army headed in the direction of Yanhui City.

Not long after Ren Chengzhuo and his group arrived in Yanhui City, Ye Lingkuang arrived with the rest of the troops.After the rendezvous, Ye Lingkuang speculated that Jingyuan must have arrived, and deliberately sent messengers in and out, creating the illusion that he was about to arrive, and confused Ye Lingkuang.Ye Lingkuang's main force lost one-third, and also lost a lot of food and supplies.The sneak attack from Jingyuan was ferocious, and Xijing's troops descended like tigers. Ye Lingkuang didn't even have time to burn the supplies, so he had to escape in a hurry, which made Xijing easy.

At this time, Xijing's fighting spirit is high, and a large amount of supplies has been seized, so he will definitely take advantage of the victory and pursue it.This time the war of the Three Kingdoms is different from the previous ones which were only plundering, but involved the life and death of the country. Jingyuan will never bypass Yanhui City and let the army and Ren Chengzhuo in Ye Lingkuang's hands go in vain.Ye Lingkuang made a prompt decision and asked a team of soldiers to escort Ren Chengzhuo back to Desert Sand City, and reported the result of the battle.Originally, he planned to have someone escort Chu Luo back to the country, but Chu Luo refused: "The general can dedicate his life to Beimo, and there is no one in Nanzhou who is afraid of death. Beimo and Nanzhou have dead lips and teeth. If the general can't defend here, I, Chu Luo, have no face to go back to Nanzhou."
