Chapter 312: Xinyang Breaks Down (1)

Everyone changed their colors slightly. If they said that food was short of food, they could barely last for a while, but there was nothing to say about water. However, Xinyang was located in the northwest and the water source was originally scarce. It was almost destined to have a lack of water after being besieged by Xiling.

"No matter how fast we can, the King of Zhennan will definitely wait for us in Jiangxia." Ye Li sighed.

Mu Yang frowned and asked, "What if Jiang Xia is also broken?"

Lu Jinxian raised his sword eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, Prince Mu, although there are only tens of thousands of troops under the command of General Pei of Jiangxia, Jiangxia is completely different from Xinyang, which is flat. It is absolutely no problem to defend for ten days and half a month. Even if the King of Zhennan is really in a big army, as long as Jiangxia has one soldier and one soldier, the people of Xiling will never let the people of Xiling take a step!" Hearing this, Nanhou and Mu Yang couldn't help but feel hot. The Mo family army has guarded the border for a hundred years and has never allowed the enemy country to step into the territory of Great Chu. Now, because the emperor is afraid that the soldiers of the Mo family army have idle in the Ding Palace, less than a month after the war started, the Xiling army has stepped several cities and advanced three or four hundred miles forward.

Nanhou nodded and said, "It's good if the princess knows it."

Ye Li smiled and said, "I know that the Marquis is also worried about the war. Don't worry, General Sun Yan has sent the Heiyun Cavalry to the Starry Night to travel to Jiangxia first."

"Princess." Zhuo Jing had already translated the letter and came over to Ye Li's hand. Ye Li looked down for a while, frowned and handed the letter to Nanhou and said, "Hello, Marquis, what do you think, generals?"

Nanhou looked at it, and looked at Zhuo Jing, who was standing beside Ye Li in surprise, frowned and said, "The King of Zhennan suddenly accelerated the attack. Do you want to take Jiangxia before we arrive? No! Princess, I'm afraid that something is wrong!" Seeing that Nanhou changed his face, Lu Jinxian and Feng Zhiyao quickly picked up the letter and didn't care about looking at it one after another. The more they looked, the deeper the brows were frowning. While the King of Zhennan sent people to attack Xinyang, he divided his troops and detoured. Even the Nanlu Army, which was not far from them, divided a team and came north...

"Princess..." Feng Zhiyao frowned.

Nanhou said in a deep voice: "While King Zhennan attacking Xinyang fiercely, he divided his troops to detour, probably because he wanted to cut off General Yuan's retreat."

Ye Li looked deep and said after a while: "Catch the map." At this time, the disadvantages of poor information were reflected. No matter what they analyzed now, they could not immediately pass it to the generals in front. They could only hope that the generals on the front would also see the other party's intentions like them and make possible responses. Fortunately, this disadvantage is often mutual.

Zhuo Jing turned around and took out a folded piece of paper from the shape behind him. He slowly unfolded the paper and showed winding lines marking mountains, rivers and rivers. The border of Da Chu was clear from south to north. Ye Li picked up the pen on the desk and marked the marching routes of various troops from Xiling mentioned in the letter. He frowned and looked up and said, "Have you sent the detailed map of the northwest back?" Zhuo Jing turned around and pulled out another piece from his luggage and said, "I arrived this morning and was planning to show it to the princess." Ye Li vacated the table to spread the map, and said, "What's the use of showing it to me? I haven't been to the northwest either. Marquis, General Lu, come and take a look."

Everyone was a little curious about the map in front of them, and immediately surrounded them after hearing Ye Li's words. There were two maps of similar size on the table, one of which was obviously a map of all border areas in the west of Great Chu, while the other one was much more detailed, but only in the northwest. However, it was a specific area they had never seen before. Lu Jinxian praised: "Good thing, I was in the northwest at the age of 20. I have been there for nearly twenty years but I dare not say that I can know clearly than this picture." Nan Hou nodded and pointed to a place on the map and said: "General Lu said it well. This marquis had been to the northwest several times back then. The princess's map was drawn... very detailed."

Ye Li smiled with satisfaction, how could she not be detailed? All the people who had just been trained were sent out. In addition to the original maps, if they still couldn't get to know the people in the northwest, it would be a waste of learning.

Ye Li stared at the two maps for a long time, took the pen and drew a heavy painting somewhere on the map, and said in a deep voice: "Immediately, order the troops in the south to get close to the Xiling South Army to gather westwards. Intercept the troops assigned by the South Army!"

Zhuo Jing nodded, Ye Li raised her eyebrows and thought for a while, smiled faintly. She lowered her head and pulled out a piece of paper and wrote a line of characters on the paper and handed it to Zhuo Jing and asked, "Where is Qin Feng?"

Zhuo Jing lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said, "Near Lingguan, you should be ready to go north and join us." Ye Li looked down at the location of Lingguan and said, "Let him not come back, give this to him, the next plan."

Zhuo Jing put away the note, walked out without even looking.

"What are the plans for the princess?" Mu Yang asked with a raised eyebrows.

Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "It's not a plan, I'm just making some arrangements in advance. Just in case."

Knowing that she had made it unintentionally, Mu Yang just looked at her with a complicated look and didn't look at it. The Mo family army has been following the dispatch of the Ding King's Mansion for a hundred years, and has no good feelings for the emperor in recent years. The family he, the emperor, was still the emperor's confidant, naturally had an awkward identity. Fortunately, Mu Yang himself was also a very tactful person.

Nanhou looked at Ye Li and Mu Yang again, as if he didn't notice the undercurrent between the two. He stroked his beard and smiled: "It's good that the princess has a plan. Now we are hundreds of miles away and want to do nothing. It's better to rush to the battlefield to support it as soon as possible." Ye Li and Mu Yang nodded in agreement. Nanhou then smiled and discussed with Ye Li and others for a while before getting up and saying goodbye to his account to rest. Mu Yang left Nanhou, and even if he wanted to stay and continue listening to the audience, he had to get up and say goodbye.

Xinyang City

On the city wall, Leng Qingyu looked at the flags in the distance with a calm face. Xinyang has been surrounded by the army for more than ten days. If he cannot escape the siege, he will soon collapse from the inside even if he is not attacked by the Xiling army. In addition, most of the people who have just arrived at the border were injured as soon as they arrived at the border. As the deputy general, Nanhou Shizi disappeared on the battlefield, which made the morale of the soldiers guarding the city depressed. If it weren't for the death of the defender of Xinyang City, Xinyang would have no one to take charge of the overall situation, it would be unknown whether he could still stand on the city wall.

"General Leng, when will the troops supported by the imperial court arrive?!" A general with a tired face hurriedly came and asked Leng Qingyu without hesitation. Originally, these soldiers were very dissatisfied with this general who was at the age of a high commander of the first army. What's more, others were beaten by the King of Zhennan of Xiling before they arrived, which made everyone look down on him even more. But he was the son of the general of the country and the general personally appointed by the emperor. The guard of Xinyang City was killed, and he was the highest in Xinyang.

He was commanding. Although everyone was respectful on the surface, no one knew what they were thinking. As for the senior generals of Xinyang City, they were too lazy to even do superficial skills. A hint of embarrassment and anger flashed across Leng Qingyu's cold face. He had been smooth sailing since he was a child. With his own ability, he became the commander of the Imperial Guard in the capital and one of the top young heroes in Chujing. However, when he became, he encountered a series of walls, which made him feel a little hesitant and suspicious.
