It was not easy to fight back from Yingdu to Jinxi Kyoto. Although the people were not as comfortable as Nangong Ling's reign, they were unwilling to start a war. After all, the people were the ones who suffered in the end.
However, Nangong Ling's purging of the court made officials and the people live in misery. In order to install his own people in important positions, he did not care about the consequences and insisted on killing and killing the genocide. He was involved in a lot of time, including Kyoto.
At this moment, the verbal sternness was so strict that it would be a search that would keep every household from leaving. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a complaint.
The city in the neighboring country is not much better than Kyoto. All the generals guarding the city were stationed by Nangong Ling. The war was about to begin. Relying on the three fires of the new official, the generals guarding the city made a lot of money in the city, and all the taxes were raised.
Many people wanted to leave and go to other places, but because the city gates were tight, they could not get out at all.
It also gave Nangong Yu an excuse to send troops to attack. Although it is not legitimate, it can be used.
In the entire Jinxi territory, except for the ten cities and northern counties in Yingdu’s fiefdom and the north and south counties, many cities and counties were treated the same.[
Although the people knew that King Yu wanted to rebel first, they learned that King Yu was under the jurisdiction of King Yu and his wife lived a mediocre life, they stopped complaining and wished they could put wings and fly over immediately.
The war began like this.
The first battle was Lingko County. The general who guarded Lingko County was once Yu Dehai, a soldier under Jiao Guanghai. He was later promoted to the general who protected the country and rehabilitated the country. This man Kong Wu was powerful and had two nine-ring swords.
It appears vividly, but is very witty but extremely ordinary.
Five days later, Nangong Yu personally led a large army of 200,000, and rushed to Lingkou County and set up camp thirty miles away.
In the tent of the commander's camp, Nangong Yu and the commander of the Iron Cavalry, Chime, Liang Yuan, the commander and deputy commander of the Infantry Battalion, Li Kui, and Zhao Ming were discussing the next move.
According to the information inquired by the spy, Akame said: "The prince, the last general believes that the Nangong Ling Sect Yu Dehai defended the Lingkou County, and this behavior is absolutely not simple. Yu Dehai is stupid. If he guards the city, wouldn't he be a general for nothing.
Lingko County gave it to the prince. Moreover, there is a river embankment ten feet wide in front of Lingko County. I am afraid he will do his tricks on the river embankment."
Nangong Yu nodded and did not say anything. He stared at the topographic map of Lingko County carefully with his eyes deep.
Suddenly, Zhao Ming, deputy general of the infantry battalion, said: "If Nangong Ling's intention is, it is probably as Chime said. The last general once heard the soldiers below say that the river embankment is called the turbulent river. In the summer, it will
Like the waves, huge waves surged. It is winter now, and the river surface has already frozen. If Yu Dehai is doing his tricks on this ice surface, then we must be careful."
"If you do something on the ice, you must use an ice hammer to break it in advance and disguise it as it is intact. Once our army passes, we can wipe out us without any effort. Zhao Ming, what you want to say is this"? Li Kui
He looked at Zhao Ming and asked.
Zhao Ming nodded and looked at Nangong Yu. Seeing that he had not spoken, he didn't know what the prince meant.
"Looking below, it's not necessarily like this." At this moment, Qing Niao walked in from outside the tent with dust, her whole face was frozen purple and purple. He walked to the charcoal basin and wanted to insert his finger into the charcoal.
.
Everyone looked at Qingniao, and Chie-eyed asked in confusion: "Qingniao, what do you mean?"
Qingniao was about to speak, but suddenly sneezes. At this time, Nangong Yu walked to the table, poured a cup of hot water and handed it to him. Qingniao smiled slightly and held the warm water cup. Everyone knew that King Yu was It is not uncommon to cherish generals, so I have long been accustomed to it.
Qingniao took a sip of hot water and then said, "There is a talented man around Yu Dehai. The reason why Nangong Ling sent Yu Dehai to Lingko County was just a cover-up. The real person who spoke was actually It's that talented man."
"What did you say?" Everyone was stunned.
"It's true as I expected." At this time, Nangong Yu said in a deep voice, then looked at Qingniao and asked, "Can you know the identity of that capable man?"
Qingniao nodded and said, "It is Nangong Ling's new cabinet minister. Because the man is very cautious, the house he lives in is also very cautious and never leaves the house. He only knows that Yu Dehai calls that man Lord Yan on weekdays."
"Master Yan"? Nangong Yu half-squinted his eyes and searched for memories of Yan's surname in his mind. After a long time, he really reminded him of it. His voice became colder and said, "I remember someone, named Yan Jiu was the new top scorer in the previous year, but because he had no family and background, he was neglected soon and went to a remote county to become a county magistrate. If it were him, I would be looking forward to this battle very much. What is the result”.
Everyone didn't quite understand what King Yu said meant, but Qing Niu knew very well, so he explained to the prince: "Although the prince had never had contact with Yan Jiu, he learned from others that Yan Jiu's test papers were called The latecomer of the ancients was comparable to his literary talent in Jin Xi's court. Although his literary talent was extraordinary, the theory of governing the country had no precedent. Therefore, Nangong Ling only nominated him as the new top scholar in his literary talent and was in his official position. He was not taken care of."[
Only then did everyone understand that Nangong Yu continued to say Qing Niao's words: "Yan Jiu's theory of governing the country is indeed very strange. Not to mention Nangong Ling, even this king has never heard of it. It is not an exaggeration to Nangong Ling not adopt it."
Zhao Ming was stunned at first, and then asked, "Then, what the prince meant is that Yan Jiu is a man with great ambitions and extraordinary wisdom"?
Nangong Yu smiled slightly, but spoke again. For a moment, there was no one in the commander's tent.
At night, the wind was cold and Nangong Yu was not asleep all night. He ordered Liang Yuan, a cavalry camp, to send 500 troops to the shore of the sky and investigate the enemy's situation overnight.
Everyone gathered in the head coach's tent, waiting for news.
As minute by minute passed, the charcoal furnace kept adding new charcoal, and the atmosphere seemed a bit heavy.
"Report", suddenly, with a loud shout, a soldier ran into the tent quickly. Before he could speak, he was interrupted by Liang Yuan who was following behind him.
Liang Yuan was covered in blood and had signs of burns. He had many wounds on his face, his armor on his head disappeared, and his temples were messy. "All five hundred soldiers of the Prince's Pioneer Team were sacrificed."
"What"? When everyone heard the news, they stood up. Nangong Yu walked to Liang Yuan a few steps, helped him up, with a deep brow locked, and asked in a deep voice: "What the hell is going on?"
Liang Yuan said one by one: "When our vanguard successfully arrived at the surging river, he found that there were traces of cracks on the river. He wanted to cross the river first to explore, but if there was an accident, he would order people to repay him. The army would push forward, but he would not be able to do so. I thought that oil was poured on the ice on the river surface, and our horses began to slip as soon as they stepped up. Just as the last general ordered people to retreat, two enemy troops rushed out from both sides of the river bank, about two About a hundred people threw the lit wine jar onto the river surface, causing the oil on the river surface to burn. It can be said that this time, the enemy wiped out the five hundred cavalry soldiers of our army without any effort."
As soon as Liang Yuan finished speaking, he couldn't help but burst into tears. Those five hundred soldiers were the flesh in his palms. He felt deeply distressed when he lost one person, let alone the five hundred soldiers.
