Although there were only 40,000 defenders, Lin Haoming was not worried at all with the pass fortress. It was originally a fortress to guard the pass into Baopen County, so as long as it was held, Lin Haoming also made sufficient preparations.
When the army set up its formation and rushed over, Lin Haoming even placed the cannons on the top of the city and bombed the siege car that had been prepared in the morning.
Such an offensive defensive battle has never been seen by the Qing Kingdom army, and I didn't know what to do for a moment.
Hesitating here, Wei Kang's army had already gone south. Everyone thought that Wei Kang could only defend the city and not attack. Because of this, the General of Qing Kingdom, who attacked the pass, only sent 30,000 people to form a defense line to resist Wei Kang's going south and form a clamping force with the troops in the pass.
Knowing Wei Kang's situation, Lin Haoming was also planning to eat 150,000 people. Because of the attack between the north and the south, and other passes may dispatch troops, these people really cannot attack, so it is very likely that they choose to leave. At present, it is not to resist, but not to let the other party leave.
For this reason, Lin Haoming also re-arranged his troops. When the enemy attacked again, Lin Haoming saw at a glance that the other party seemed to be fierce, but in fact he had no confidence.
So, Lin Haoming even prepared the army. When the enemy attacking the city came quickly and was defeated quickly, he saw the city gate suddenly open and the cavalry rushed out directly, and behind him were even more crowded.
At this time, Lin Haoming actually gave up simply defending the city, and instead took the initiative to attack after the enemy failed to siege the city. Lin Haoming wanted to entangle the enemy.
The commander of Qing Kingdom obviously did not expect Lin Haoming's army to be dispatched in full swing. He thought that at most he would just send cavalry to chase after him for a while and would retreat. Who would have thought that he would be so desperate?
Just as Lin Haoming was out in full swing, Wei Kang also led an army of 80,000 to start rushing.
After Lin Haoming's troops rushed out, he quickly broke through the cavalry behind him, and then the two armies fought directly.
The two sides fought each other in close combat, with one side having a large number of people and the other having a high morale, and it was hard to tell the difference between the two sides for a while.
Just outside this pass with the sound of killing sounds, the sound of iron horses suddenly came. Wei Kang, a general who was rumored to be in command of the city and could not attack, easily crushed the defense line arranged by the 30,000 Qing army as if he was chopping tofu. Then he rushed over and even retreated to report the news. The defeated soldiers of the Qing Kingdom, who were defeated, were still fast.
When the reinforcements of Wei State arrived, the Qing State army completely collapsed. Although the two sides actually had similar forces at this time, their morale was completely incomparable. Under the attacks between the two sides, they completely defeated 150,000 troops in Qing State. Nearly 80,000 surrendered on the spot, and only a small number of defeated soldiers fled.
This battle was thrilling, and Wei Kang, who was just over 40 years old, became famous in the entire Fengyun Continent.
The destruction of these 150,000 troops can be said to have completely lost hope to Daqing Kingdom. After the war, Lin Haoming stayed to clean up the battlefield and allowed Wei Kang to continue to lead the army into Baopen County. When Wei Kang's army arrived, I believe the situation would be settled.
When Wei Kang entered Baopin County, he soon began to completely wipe out Baopin County's resistance army with Ning Lin. Some of them collapsed directly, while others hid in the mountains and forests as much as possible and dared not come out.
In this way, the army could siege the capital without any scruples. What made Qing Kingdom even more terrible was that after knowing that the 150,000 troops of Qing Kingdom had been destroyed, Dai Kingdom immediately changed its idea of ​​saving Qing Kingdom after entering Qing Kingdom and directly rescuing the rescue turned into occupation. The 150,000 Dai Kingdom's army dispersed like a wolve and directly occupied the three counties of Chongshan, Fengshui and Maoling of Qing Kingdom.
When the news reached the capital of King Qing, the capital began to become panic.
At this time, even Shu Yan knew that Qingguo had finished, and it was finished at a speed that she could not understand.
A few months ago, the army of Qing State occupied the territory of Wei State, but in the blink of an eye, the troops were already at the gate.
In the palace hall, everyone's face was extremely ugly at this time. Whether it was those who praise merits on weekdays, pretending to be idle, or even those who played against them, they were silent.
In fact, although there is no words on his lips, who knows what he is thinking? But sitting next to his son Ende Shuyan knows that there is no one here willing to live and die with Qingguo.
No one spoke, and Shu Yan knew that when someone spoke again, he might have been tied up and even cut off his head and sent it outside the city. Since he was going to surrender, it would be better to take the initiative. Even in a desperate situation, Shu Yan did not admit defeat. No matter how bad his situation was, could he be even worse than being a maid in Shu's family back then?
His eyes swept across everyone present, and finally swept over her own father's face. Shu Yan said directly: "Sir, the Ai family knows the current situation. If the walls of the capital were not thick and the other party's artillery could not be opened, I'm afraid we would have been defeated. There is a complete defeat in front of us. Since that is the case, there is only one way to seek peace. I wonder what you all think?"
"How does the Empress Dowager plan to seek peace?" The person who spoke was Han Rui, the younger brother of the former king, and now the main official of the Qing Kingdom.
Before, Han Rui could be said to be Shu Yan's biggest ally in the royal family. He became the master of this sect because of his cooperation, but his tone changed a little at this time.
"How about cede the two counties connected to Wei?" Shu Yan asked.
Hearing this, the civil and military officials in the court looked at each other for a few times and stopped talking.
"Are the Empress Dowager joking? Now that Wei is coming in a fierce manner, the Empress Dowager thinks that the two counties can satisfy each other's appetite?" Han Rui mocked.
"What do you think about the sect?" Shu Yan asked back.
Han Rui knew that the other party's ambition was destroying the country, and there was no room for maneuver. At present, the king could still hold on for a while, but when the food and grass were exhausted, the city would be destroyed even if it was not destroyed.
"I don't know what the Prime Minister means?" Han Rui kicked the ball to Shu Huaian.
"No matter what, you have to talk to the other party. You might as well talk to the other party based on the conditions of the Queen Mother. Although the other party will probably refuse, at least you can test the other party's words." Shu Huaian said as he looked at everyone.
As soon as he said this, everyone felt much more relieved. At present, the king didn't seem to be anxious, nor was he in a hurry. If he could reach a good result, it would be the best. If it didn't work, he could find another solution.
"The Prime Minister is indeed very thoughtful, so the matter is decided like this. The specific negotiation personnel will be decided by the Prime Minister." Seeing this, Shu Yan simply agreed.
