The Sang Army's attack throughout the afternoon had no positive significance. Not only did it fail to snatch back the places that Ning Army had occupied, but the Ning Army took advantage of the situation to attack and seize more places.

The guard of Yingcheng, He Mujiu, who was known as one of the two major gate warriors of Sang Kingdom, vomited blood and fainted. That night, the Ning army continued to attack. After a night of fierce fighting, the entire outer city of Yingcheng was captured by the Ning army.

The next morning, Ning Jun traveled around the city wall and shouted, giving Sang Guo soldiers a day to surrender. Within one day, those who have equipment can leave Yingcheng freely. Ning Jun will never stop him. If they are willing to serve Ning Jun, they can even get rewards.

But this period is only one day.

In other words, after capturing all the outer cities of Yingcheng, the Ning army planned to rest for a day, and gave the Sang people a day to consider, surrender those who were willing to surrender, those who were willing to leave, and those who were willing to fight to the death.

As a result, a strange atmosphere began to spread in the entire Sang** camp. Originally, Hemujiuyi personally supervised the battle. Although the Sang army lags behind the Ning army in terms of weapons, equipment and combat power, the fighting spirit is still there.

The news of Hemujiuyi fainting spread like wildfire. The entire Sangjun camp was talking about this. Some people also said that General Hemujiuyi had been vomiting blood and died of death by Ning Jun's anger.

In order to deal with this situation, He Mujiuyi personally inspected the camp, speaking loudly while walking to inspire morale.

However, if the war is fought like this, morale cannot be inspired so easily.

"General"

He Mujiu, a subordinate of the staff officer, Guandemu Qin, walked behind him and said softly as he walked: "Last night, the Ning army had occupied a circle of walls in the outer city, and the four gates were lost. Yesterday afternoon, after the general fainted, the messenger from the north happened to enter the city."

He Mujiu stopped step by step: "Whose messenger?"

"General Demomohirokawa."

Demu Qin looked at He Mujiu with some embarrassment, and he wanted to speak but stopped.

"Tell me."

He Mujiu sighed: "There is no bad news that can affect my mood anymore. I hope General Demukawa can fight smoothly, but now it seems that Ning Jun's weapons and equipment are so powerful and combat power is so fierce, I'm afraid it's not easy for him to fight."

"yes"

German Mu Qin said: "But, General German Mu Chuan did not fail head-on. The messenger sent a message saying that Ning Jun had not launched an attack on them before he came."

He Mujiu's expression changed, and he could vaguely hear some unusual meaning from the words of German Mu Qin.

"There is no head-on fight but there is a problem?"

"yes"

Gemu Qin sighed: "General Demuchuan sent someone to remind the general, be careful of Ningren's tricks. He blocked Ningmen's army's southward journey on the south bank of Chunye River. Ningmen had no warships, so it was not easy to cross the Chunye River. General Demuchuan set a tactic to stick to it. Ningmen's food and grass supply is insufficient, so they will be eager to attack and look for opportunities to break the enemy when Ningmen attacks."

He Mujiu nodded: "This is the most correct response tactic. Demuchuan has a good idea. Ning Jun's only retreat is to retreat to Beizhou Island. However, they cannot collect much food and supplies in the remote areas of Beizhou Island."

Demuhe Qin said: "It's right, but the Ning army has many tricks. They captured a large number of people and sang our folk songs every day on the north bank of Chunye River. The song of the Holy King was sang four or five days later, many people in General Demuhe River's camp escaped."

He Mujiu stopped step by step, and his heart seemed to be blocked with a big stone.

"he"

He Mujiu opened his mouth, and he couldn't say anything behind him.

In fact, he was exactly the same as Demokigawa. Both of them were powerful generals under the former emperor of the Sang Kingdom, Eyejota. Eyejota attached great importance to them and would be rewarded every once in a while.

It can be said that Yingzhaotai was able to conquer the country, and Demuchuan and Hemujiuyi and two others made great contributions.

However, the disagreement arose after Eyejota became emperor.

After the founding of the country, Eyejota rewarded his ministers, of which the most meritorious ones were of course Hemu Kuichi and Demuikawa. The rewards of the two were almost the same, but Demuikawa was more obvious than Hemu Kuichi, that is, Eyejota betrothed his niece to Demuikawa's son Demui Mitsui.

It was when Hemuji was so proud that he was different from Demujikawa. The Demujikawa family was powerful and he was a wandering samurai. Before Eyejota betrothed his niece to Demuji Mitsui, he had proposed to his son, but was rejected by Eyejota.

This incident became a thorn in He Mujiu's heart.

Shortly after that, Yingzhaotai promoted another big family in the Sang Kingdom, the Langqing family.

Lang Qingyi did not have any military achievements, but because of his huge family strength, he contributed a lot of gold, silver and treasures to Ying Tiaotai, he was named Marquis. Although his official position was lower than that of Hemujiujiu, because of his high title, Hemujiu had to pay tribute when he saw him.

Another thing that reuses the power of the big family is that shortly after Yashi Yashiheng returned to the country, he was appointed as the general of the Navy by Etsuota, but He Muji asked him twice for the position of Etsuota.

It’s just because Shimiyoung’s mother is also a member of the Langqing family, and Shimiyoung is also Yingzhao Liuan’s personal bodyguard.

A man with no achievements even fled back from Ningguo in a panic. Not only was he not punished but entrusted with important tasks. He Mujiuyi was extremely disappointed with Yingzhaotai.

Because of this, he was the first person to win over after Takaihara's rebellion, and he was appointed as a marquis, asked him to open a palace, and handed over the military power of the entire Zuozhongzhou Island to him.

Hemu Kuichi immediately became Takaihara's person. He thought that a person like Tokumaikawa would not be the same as him, and the two of them would even have a fierce battle. Unexpectedly, Tokumaikawa became Takaihara's person so soon.

The German Shepherd family and the Lang Qing family both received a lot of favors from Eitoto Tai, but in an instant, both families chose to surrender to Takaihara Ningjun took advantage of the opportunity of Eitoto Liuan to sing mulberry songs on the north bank of the Haruno River, which really hit the morale too much.

Many people choose to leave because they dare not fight, so they escape, but choose to defect to Yingtiao Liuan.

After listening to the words of German Mu Qin, He Mujiu let out a long sigh: "If Your Majesty is rational enough at this time, he will not have launched troops against Yingzhai Liuan."

German Mu Qin looked at him and sighed: "But Your Majesty will not allow Yingtiao Liuan to divide the country with him. Besides, Yingtiao Liuan returns at this time, obviously it is Ning Ren's plan."

He Mujiu said: "If Your Majesty sends troops to attack Yingtiao Liu'an at this time, our Sang Kingdom will be defeated in the war with Ning Kingdom, and there will be even danger of destroying the country, perhaps the danger of extermination of the clan."

Demu Qin said: "I hope Your Majesty will not do anything wrong."

Meanwhile, Kyoto.

Emperor Takaihara, the emperor of the Sang Kingdom, kicked the table in front of him, his face pale with anger.

"What is Yingzhang Liu'an? He dared to write to me at this time to abdicate me, and said that as long as he surrenders to him, he can be forgiven and exempt me from the crime of the entire clan. What qualifications does he have!"

The ministers under him were so scared that they were bloodless and no one dared to speak.

"I want to order a siege to attack him!"

Takaihara turned around and looked at the courtier: "I will order the army to be summoned to attack him now!"

A court official quickly leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, no, now is the time when the Ning army is attacking our country. If we cannot unite and instead have civil strife, the one who benefits will be Ning people."

Another courtier fell to his knees and said, "Your Majesty, Yingzhang Liu'an's doing this is indeed infuriating. Not only did he not summon people to resist the Ning army, he caused trouble at this time. It was not really necessary, but Your Majesty thought twice and should still be the focus of the outside world."

"How can we resist foreign enemies?"

Takaihara asked: "What's the battle in Sakura Castle now?"

A general bowed his head and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, there is no news from Yingcheng yet, but the navy has just been defeated, and the war in Yingcheng must be very tight."

Takaihara was silent for a moment and said, "What's the battle in Haruno River?"

The military general replied: "The military yamen just received the news that the Ning army had not yet launched an attack on General Demuchuan's army, and the two sides were still confronting each other."

"That's good."

Takaihara was walking in the hall and said, "The Ning army in the north has only about 100,000 people, and there is insufficient food and grass. You don't need to pay too much attention. As long as they can't cross the Haruno River, they can starve them to death even if they don't fight. I will pass the order."

Takaihara turned around and ordered, "Long Qingyi, you go to Haruno River to replace General Demuichuan immediately. I will grant you the General Zhenbei and lead 200,000 troops to block the Ning army. Remember, if the Ning army attacks, you just need to defend it immediately. Ning army can't hold on for long. After you arrive at Haruno River, you will replace Demuichuan and let him divide 200,000 troops back to attack Yingzhao Liuan."

Some civil servants had to say something, but Takaihara became furious: "No one is allowed to persuade him again. Yingtiao Liuan just wanted to destroy my Dasang Empire before he came back. Ningren sent him back. Can't you see clearly? If he lets him do anything wrong, the Dasang Empire will not be far from being destroyed."

The civil servant who was the first to speak fell to the ground and kowtowed constantly, and soon a layer of blood appeared on his forehead.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, if you attack Yingzhang Liuan at this time, you will lose the people's hearts. Your Majesty only needs to reply to him and tell him that as long as he is willing to submit to him, your Majesty will not blame him for his past. Why do you have to know him like him? General Demuchuan is in the north and General Hemujiuyi is in the south. This is the two major barriers of the empire. If General Demuchuan is transferred back to attack Yingzhang Liuan, the northern border will be in danger."

Lang Qingyi, who was standing on one side, changed his expression. He snorted and said, "Mr. Sakai means that your Majesty can't send me to the Northern Xinjiang to replace General Demukawa? Is it that I will lose to Ningren immediately after I arrive in Northern Xinjiang?"

He walked to the civil servant and said with a pale face: "Do you say I will ruin the Dasang Empire? Or are you questioning Your Majesty? I think Your Majesty wants to ruin the Dasang Empire?"

The civil servant shouted: "You will not lead troops at all! Your high-ranking officials and outstanding titles are all bought with money. Does anyone in the court know that? If you go to the northern border to lead troops, it will be a real disaster for the empire!"

He turned to Takaihara and kept kowtowing: "Your Majesty think twice, this person must not lead the army."

Lang Qingyi shouted: "Your Majesty, I am willing to issue a military order. If I cannot defend the Haruno River to the death, Your Majesty can kill me all over my family!"

Takaihara slowed down for a while and waved his hand: "Send Lord Sakai back home and let him reflect on what he was talking nonsense. Lang Qingyi, you can prepare now and set off tomorrow morning."

Lang Qingyi smiled and leaned over: "I obey the order."
