Liu Jingxuan curled up his lips and said: "Jinnu, but even including my vanguard, there are only five thousand soldiers and horses, and including your thousand elite soldiers, it is only six thousand. Can this force really capture Yecheng?"
?”
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "It depends on whether God will favor us. Murong Chui didn't set up an army here to attack us, which means he has been fooled. The whole army is rushing forward. The target is Yecheng!"
Yecheng, Imperial Palace.
After a short period of time, she was walking back and forth like an ant in a hot nest. In front of her, Murong Bao's head was covered in sweat. Although he was dressed in military uniform, the hand holding the sword was trembling slightly.
Xiaoqi's spies came back and forth like a revolving door, constantly reporting in front of them, and almost every piece of news would make the mother and son further despair.
"The Jin army has assembled at Liyang Ferry, with a number of about 8,000 to 10,000 people. They are flying the banner of the Beifu Army. They have set off within half an hour."
"Sun Jiuzhao, who was guarding Liyang, was breached by the Jin army. Our guard Sun Duwei died in the battle. The Jin army continued to advance here without stopping."
"The leader of the Jin Army seems to be Liu Yu, and the vanguard general is Liu Jingxuan. The famous military academy of the Beifu Army is Wuji, Tan Pingzhi, Wei Yongzhi and others have all arrived. They are well-equipped and have sharp armor. Our army is completely unable to resist the troops guarding it along the way.
!”
"Report, the troops and horses from the four surrounding states and counties all refused to come, saying that it takes time to assemble the troops!"
Murong Bao was upset and yelled: "Stop talking, stop fucking talking!"
Little Duan bit her lip and said in a deep voice: "Where is His Majesty's army?"
The spy who was kneeling on the ground said quickly: "Your Majesty has come all the way from Cizhou Pass, but..."
Murong Bao jumped forward, picked up the spy's collar, lifted him up from the ground, and said sternly: "Just what? Say it quickly!"
The spy stammered: "It's just that we were blocked by Ding Ling and Zhai Zhao on the way, and it was hard to get there for a while. Your Majesty is leading his armored cavalry to break through the enemy's obstruction and come at full speed. We can't do it no matter what."
If you abandon Yecheng, you must hold on!"
Murong Bao's hand weakly loosened the collar of the spy. The spy quickly saluted and ran away as if he was receiving an amnesty. Murong Bao fell weakly to the ground, his eyes were empty: "It's over, it's really over now, the elite soldiers in the city
All the sharp soldiers have been taken away by the emperor, and only a thousand old and weak people are left behind. How can we defend Ye City?"
When he said this, he turned around and cried to Xiao Duan: "Queen mother, it is absolutely impossible to defend this city. Before the Jin army arrives, let's escape quickly to join our father and come back to recapture Ye City.
It’s not too late.”
A trace of hesitation flashed in Xiao Duan's eyes: "But your father made it clear that we are not allowed to abandon the defense and must hold on tightly. Abao, you must not disobey your father's will."
Murong Bao stamped his foot fiercely: "What time has it been? My father is a hundred miles away and beyond our reach. How could he know the situation here? Yecheng is so big that a thousand soldiers can't take care of all aspects. How can we defend it?"
As long as we withdraw first with Yuxi, what's the use of Liu Yu occupying the empty city here? Let's leave quickly, otherwise it will be too late!"
A cold voice sounded, with incomparable perseverance and determination: "Prince Murong Bao of Dayan, do you know what you are saying and doing now?"
Murong Bao froze on the spot for a moment, turned around and looked back, and a look of surprise flashed across Xiao Duan's face, and he stepped forward to hold the visitor's hand: "Alan, you are finally back, I knew it, I
I know that you will not abandon our Dayan and your people."
Murong Bao reluctantly raised his hand to Murong Lan, who was wearing black soft armor and had a heroic appearance, and curtly saluted: "Auntie, the situation is urgent now. It can't be solved by talking big. There are no soldiers or generals in the city, how can we defend it?
Then Liu Yu used trickery to deceive the emperor this time, and you, my aunt, know his abilities best. Are you planning to rely on your relationship as husband and wife with him to stop Liu Yu?"
At this point, little Duan's eyes flashed with excitement: "Alan, Liu Yu is your husband, and he has children with you. Go and beg him, and he will definitely let us go this time. Sister-in-law, I beg you this time."
Yes, for the sake of Dayan and your people, please beg him for once."
Murong Lan shook his head: "I know Liu Yu very well. All his life, what he has been thinking about is the Northern Expedition. This is what he dreams about. My relationship with him is not as good as his idea.
, I begged him not to attack Dayan when I was in Jiangjun, but he refused, and he will not stop now. However, I will go to meet Liu Yu to buy time for us."
As she spoke, she turned to look at Murong Bao: "This is Yecheng, the old capital of Dayan, which was built by our ancestors after decades of hard work and hundreds of years of bloodshed.
As a descendant, even if you risk your life, you have to hold on to it. Why should you give up so easily? You are the crown prince of Dayan, the crown prince of the country, and the future emperor. You want to lead our whole family to survive in this troubled world. How can you?
How can you be so cowardly that you abandon your subjects, civilians, and soldiers before seeing the enemy, and just run for your life?"
Murong Bao's forehead was covered with sweat. As he wiped it, he kept saying: "What my aunt taught me is that my nephew was negligent just now and asked my aunt to take charge of the overall situation."
Murong Lan gritted her teeth, turned to look at Murong Feng, who was standing silently in a corner of the hall, and said, "King Yidu, we meet again."
Murong Feng nodded: "Princess Lan, it is great blessing for Yan to have you back to take charge of the overall situation at this time. Is there anything the general can do for you?"
Murong Lan glanced at Murong Bao and said: "Prince Renxiao needs to protect the safety of the Queen and Yuxi, so the city defense is entrusted to the King of Yidu. How many soldiers and horses are there in the city now?"
Murong Feng said seriously: "The last general is the central leader in charge of the imperial army. There are 800 soldiers, horses, and ceremonial guards in the palace. There are about 800 garrison outside the city. Including the servants from various prefectures in the city, there are still three to five hundred.
people, the total strength is about two thousand."
Murong Lan said in a deep voice: "There are 647 members of the intelligence organization I have set up in the city. Now I have summoned them all, and handed them over to the general to unify the armed forces, organize and organize them outside the palace.
In addition to the city team, the queen and the prince are also asked to summon all the civil and military officials in the city, including everyone's servants and servants, as long as they are adult men, to go to the city to defend."
Murong Feng looked happy, then frowned: "But even so, there are only four to five thousand people. Ye City is too big, and the Beifu Army is very good at attacking and defending the city. I'm afraid..."
Murong Lan said seriously: "Abandon the outer city and directly defend the palace city. I will do everything I can to delay Liu Yu's attack speed and buy time for my elder brother to return to defense. The rest will be left to you. Remember, you
We are the descendants of the Murong family. The heroic spirits of our ancestors are watching us from all over the world. When the city is here and people are there, when the city is gone, people are going to perish!"
