The day after Wang Gang met with Uesugi Tiger, a grain transport team arrived outside the Northern Qi military camp.
The 200,000-strong army consumes a lot of food every day. The Northern Qi army has long been short of food. The soldiers cannot eat enough at every meal. When they see the vast food transport team, they all swallowed their saliva unconsciously.
After receiving the news, Tora Uesugi and Sean immediately rushed out of the camp and contacted the grain transport team in person.
It was naturally impossible for Wang Gang to transport the grain himself, so a captain named Jibuha came.
"General Uesugi, I have been ordered by the Great Khan to transport fifty carts of grain and grass. The remaining grain and grass will arrive in the afternoon." Jibuha said to Uesugi Tiger and Sean, neither humble nor arrogant.
Uesugi Tiger was overjoyed and said happily: "As expected, Canglang Khan is a trustworthy person. General Jibuha will let someone receive the food and grass later."
Jibuha waved people to unload the grain and grass and handed it over to the Northern Qi soldiers.
Uesugi Tiger and Sean watched the carts of grain and grass being moved into the military camp, and they rubbed their hands happily.
"General Jibuha, please go to the army tent and rest. I will prepare a small amount of wine to entertain you." Uesugi Tiger said.
Jibuha did not show any pretense and recruited several subordinates to enter the military tent together.
Half an hour later, a burst of loud shouting suddenly came from the military tent.
"Here comes someone! General Uesugi is under attack."
The soldiers of the Northern Qi Dynasty quickly rushed into the camp, and then saw Tiger Uesugi lying on the ground with five arrow feathers stuck in his body. Sean was seriously injured and vomiting blood. He was next to Tiger Uesugi, and his life and death were unknown.
Jibuha and others disappeared without a trace.
Before the Northern Qi soldiers could react, shouts of killing came from outside the camp, and a large number of Nanqing soldiers attacked the military camp.
Uesugi Hu was killed, and the Northern Qi army was leaderless. There was chaos and chaos, and they were killed by Nanqing soldiers and abandoned their armor.
Ku He, the Imperial Advisor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, was ordered to temporarily take charge of the military as a supervisor and organize a counterattack.
Later, Wang Gang led the Yuan and Mongolian armies to support him, and together with Ku He, defeated the Nanqing army, and finally kept the main force of the Northern Qi army intact.
After the war, Kuhe sent people to investigate and found that Jibuha and the grain transport team were disguised as Nanqing troops. What they transported was not grain and grass, but soil, sand and gravel.
The person who killed Uesugi Tiger was Yan Xiaoyi, the ninth-level Archery God of Nanqing.
After the investigation was completed, Ku He immediately wrote to Zhan Doudou, asking him to send another general to take over the army. Until he arrived, the Northern Qi army was temporarily under Wang Gang's charge.
Xiao En was seriously injured and suffered in the military camp for seven days. Before his death, he returned to his former glory and summoned Wang Gang and Ku He.
"Why do you want to kill me and Uesugi Tiger?" Sean shouted when he saw Wang Gang and Ku He.
Wang Gang and Ku He looked at each other and smiled: "Sean, are you confused? The person who assassinated Uesugi Tiger was Nan Qingyan Xiaoyi."
Sean was so excited that he spit out a mouthful of blood and stared at Wang Gang's face and said: "Yan Xiaoyi followed Li Yunrui in rebellion and was killed by Emperor Qing long ago! That group of Nanqing soldiers that day must have been disguised as Yuanmeng people!"
Wang Gang chuckled and said: "He is indeed the king of spies in the great Wei Kingdom."
Sean said angrily: "I'm ready to give in, why?"
Wang Gang and Ku He didn't say anything, they just looked at the door of the camp.
Zhan Doudou slowly walked in from outside the camp.
The moment he saw Zhan Doudou, Sean understood everything.
"You and Yuan Meng have been in secret for a long time!" Sean gritted his teeth.
Zhan Doudou stood next to Wang Gang and said with a smile: "Everyone knows that Northern Qi and Yuan Meng formed an alliance, how can it be called a secret communication?"
Sean clutched his chest and asked in confusion: "Why?"
Seeing that Sean was about to die, Zhan Doudou simply treated him like a fool.
"Tora Uesugi controls more than 100,000 elite soldiers of the Northern Qi Dynasty. If he doesn't die, how can I feel at ease? Not only will he die, but he can't die in my hands."
Sean smiled bitterly and said: "I should have thought that you would not let us go so easily! In Hu'er's position, if you don't advance, you will die.
But I don’t understand why Canglang Khan helped you? Wouldn’t it be more beneficial to Yuan Meng if Northern Qi split?”
Wang Gang raised the corner of his mouth and did not tell Xiao En the truth.
Xiao En was very smart, and he could only calculate that Zhan Doudou was a woman, and Wang Gang's woman. If he gave birth to an heir in the future, Wang Gang's son would definitely inherit the Northern Qi Dynasty.
No matter how stupid Wang Gang is, he still knows how to choose between his wife and son and Sean.
"I once advised you to take your grandson and live overseas, but it's a pity that you didn't listen." Wang Gang shook his head.
Sean asked: "Can you let my grandson go? He never knows his true identity."
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "Yan Bingyun has been severely controlled. Although he does not know his life experience, he is too loyal to Nan Qing and must die."
Sean's face gradually turned gray, and his vitality was rapidly passing away.
"It seems that God has destroyed our Xiao family." Sean looked up to the sky and spat out a mouthful of old blood, completely losing his breath.
Ku He lowered his head and sighed, and then said to Zhan Doudou: "Your Majesty, please give Sean a decent funeral so that I can get to know him."
Zhan Doudou promised: "Of course there is no problem. This time I can successfully take over the military power from Tora Uesugi, thanks to the help of the national counselor. I will arrange this small matter."
Ku He glanced at Zhan Doudou and Wang Gang, said nothing, and left the camp directly.
Wang Gang suddenly hugged Zhan Doudou's waist and said with a smile: "I helped you take back your military power, how should you thank me?"
Zhan Doudou rolled his eyes at Wang Gang, pushed him away, and said, "This is the Northern Qi military camp. People come and go. Don't make trouble."
Wang Gang didn't care and continued to hug Zhan Doudou and said, "What are you afraid of? Without your order, no one would dare to break in."
Zhan Doudou blushed, pointed at Sean's body and said, "It doesn't work here, let's find another place."
Wang Gang laughed, pulled Zhan Doudou and ran out.
…………
Three days later, Zhan Doudou basically took over the Northern Qi army, and then joined forces with the Yuan and Mongolian troops to attack the capital of Nanqing in a mighty manner.
After receiving the news, Emperor Qing prepared to go on a personal expedition and led an army of 300,000 to resist. However, when allocating large military supplies, some die-hard factions interfered, causing the coalition forces to almost reach the gates of Kyoto, and Emperor Qing had not yet set off from the capital.
The Yuanmeng and Northern Qi coalition forces were able to reach the capital of Kyoto so quickly only because of the help of Chen Pingping's dark network.
Every time the coalition forces arrive in a city, they will contact the dark network and assassinate the generals defending the city. This shows the influence of martial arts masters on the war.
When Emperor Qing received the news, he was shocked to find that the Qing Kingdom had lost most of its territory, and the coalition forces could reach Kyoto in seven days at most.
Fortunately, there are 300,000 troops in the Kyoto area, and there is enough food in the city. If you focus on defense, you can last for more than half a year.
Emperor Qing urgently summoned his ministers to prepare to personally defend the city and boost the morale of the army.
But at this time, Prime Minister Lin actually proposed to abandon Kyoto, retreat to the old capital, and then send envoys to sue for peace.
Emperor Qing directly rejected Lin Xiang's request, and then put his sword on Lin Xiang's neck.
"Do you want me to be the king of a subjugated country?"
Prime Minister Lin begged bitterly: "Your Majesty, the Qing Kingdom has lost most of its territory, and the people in Kyoto are panic-stricken. If we continue to fight, we will be in danger of losing the country."
"If I were the king of a subjugated country, you would also be a minister of a subjugated country. I really thought that Yuanmeng and Northern Qi would let you go." Emperor Qing said cruelly.
Prime Minister Lin had his own small thoughts. Lin Waner was now in the hands of Wang Gang. As Lin Waner's father, he was his father-in-law after all. There should be no problem in saving his life, so he persuaded Emperor Qing to seek peace.
When the war started, the soldiers were fierce and dangerous, and the Yuanmeng soldiers did not know who the father-in-law of Canglang Khan was.
"No need to persuade anymore. Tomorrow I will lead all the civil and military officials to go to the city in person to defend the city and show my determination to fight decisively." Emperor Qing thrust his sword in front of Prime Minister Lin, not giving him a chance to refuse.
In the palace, Emperor Qing even summoned all the eunuchs, and all those who could go to the battlefield were recruited to defend the city.
With people's hearts fluctuating, a group of people sneaked into the Kyoto Imperial Palace through a secret passage.
Emperor Qing suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart, subconsciously picked up the sword, and then felt three powerful auras rushing into the palace.
Wang Gang, Ku He, Si Gu Jian, the three great masters stood in front of Emperor Qing.
