Ronghua Town is a good time for grass to grow and birds to fly, but at this moment, Ronghua Town is extremely nervous. The people are staying away from home, and soldiers patrolling the streets. The entire Ronghua Town is full of war atmosphere.

Gu Ning stood on the head of Ronghua Town with a serious look, but he was not nervous. His experience in Dahuangshan made him calm.

"Marty, we are already surrounded and have negotiated with Ning Jun to let the people in the town leave first, but Xiao Zhan disagreed, grandma!" Gu Ning's deputy general Li Chong cursed.

After hearing this, Gu Ning's expression did not change at all. He seemed to have known this was the result early in the morning. He said lightly: "Most of the people here are family members of the army. There is no problem, they will not cause trouble."

"Mr. Marquis, we only have ten thousand people, and the army is changing clothes in Ma County. Who would have thought that Xiao Zhan was so shameless and came over without even saying hello!"

Gu Ning could not tell Li Chong that it was a established strategy to withdraw from Luoshan County, but Xiao Zhan was indeed unexpected to siege Ronghua Camp, but the geographical location of Ronghua Town is extremely important, and Gu Ning would not be willing to give up no matter what.

"More than three thousand years ago, Xiahou Demeng, the head of the Xiahou family, went south to conquer Jiangnan and was defeated by Wuhou with a trick. Xiahou Demeng was trapped in Ronghua Town by General Yunyu in Ronghua Town. If General Yunyu had not been grateful for his old love, Xiahou Demeng would have died long ago. We are not much different from Xiahou Demeng now, but Xiao Zhan is not General Yunyu. He is trying to avenge his capture back then." Gu Ning said with a smile.

"Mr. Marquis, you're still laughing? I know about Xiahou Demeng from both houses. You should think about what to do." Li Chong was very dissatisfied with Gu Ning's attitude.

Gu Ning just curled his lips to Li Chong. He was also from both houses, so the virtues of both houses are all like this. As long as you take the right path, you don’t care whether you are a Shangguan or not. You are very arrogant.

"What can I do? The soldiers come to block the water and cover the soil!" Gu Gu Ning stretched and said slowly.

Li Chong saw that Gu Ning was about to explode when he saw that he was not interested. Gu Ning was the Shangguan and the commander. What could he do? He could only throw the whip in his hand unwillingly and leave, leaving Gu Ning alone to watch the scenery at the top of the city.

Gu Ning looked at Li Chong's back and saw the busy soldiers. He did not think of a way to break through, but he felt much more at ease when he looked at the figures of the soldiers. The soldiers of Daxuan all had their own pride. Betrayal and surrender were impossible. Death in battle was a kind of honor. When the remains of the soldiers who died in battle were sent back to their hometown, his mother cried and asked the person who sent the remains: "Is my son brave?"

Who dares to say that the southerners are not as brave as the northerners? This old mother has been worshipped by Shutai until today.

Twenty miles from the east gate of Ronghua Town is the Xuan Army camp. Xiao Zhan had just arranged the encirclement to sit alone in the big tent.

Although he declared war on Meng Yan, the emperor's brother scolded himself in his private documents and took the initiative to provoke the border provocation and almost broke the emperor's plan. However, Xiao Zhan did not think anything was wrong. As long as he ate Gu Ning and others, he would be confident that he could fight to Hanyang City and kill Meng Yan.

The shame of being captured back then is vivid in my mind. The humiliation of being ignored has made Xiao Zhan often wake up in the middle of the night for so many years. The hatred towards Meng Yan became stronger and stronger in his heart. During the "April 1st Agreement", he secretly wrote a letter to intercept Meng Yan on the way back, but was strictly prohibited by his royal brother.

"Come!" Xiao Zhan is now furious, but try to restrain himself from keeping his clear mind.

The guards outside the tent came in tremblingly. Since the declaration of war, Prince Ji's face has not looked good for a day. A brother was killed by Prince Ji's stick just because of a trivial matter. Now the brothers who are accompanying him are reminded every day.

"Let all the Huoshan garrisons come over and give them five days. If I come after I seize Ronghua Town, let Huoshan Duke wipe his neck!"

After hearing this, the guards burst into cold sweat all over, praying in his heart that Captain Huoshan was careful, and King Ji was bleeding all over the ground!

Meng Yan in Hanyang City was as calm as Gu Ning, and smiled and said, "Gu Ning is going to send himself to the tiger's mouth! This kid has always been a maverick."

"Your Majesty, Gu Ning is reckless!" Gu Yanfeng said in a tone of guilt.

"It's okay! The situation today is much better than when it was in Dahuangshan at that time. I believe Gu Ning can lead the soldiers to break through."

"Your Majesty, will you increase your troops? Or should I go there in person?" Zheng Xi was recalled to learn about the frontline.

Zheng Xi just returned to Hanyang City and heard that Gu Ning was surrounded. He was a little nervous at first, but then he became calm. He also believed that Gu Ning could leave Ronghua Town safely, but for safety reasons, he could not watch Gu Ning stay in the encirclement and had to do something to interfere with Ning's siege.

"There is no need to increase troops. Zheng Xi, summoning you back is not just to ask for the frontline battle situation, but there is a task to hand over to you, but maybe you will be scolded by the people of the world once, are you willing?" Meng Yan looked at Zheng Xi and asked.

Zheng Xi was stunned, and then he probably knew what kind of mission it would be. It didn't matter to him. The Daxuan military had two leading generals with a fierce temper and killed people like a slaughter. One was Luping, Liangguo, and the other was Zheng Xi.

"Your Majesty, I am a soldier of Daxuan. Soldiers have their own responsibilities. There is no saying that they dare not refuse!"

Meng Yan shook his head and was helpless to Zheng Xi. Everyone said that Zheng Xi looked the most like Lu Ping, but what they didn't know was that Lu Ping did everything with purpose, and Zheng Xi was all about his passion. The court treated him unfairly over the years, but this time, I was afraid that he would still treat him unfairly, and what he wanted to do was not good.

"Zheng Xi, I ordered you to lead 8,000 Bai Zewei to secretly cross Xishan and occupy the Xishan Ferry of Ningjun, regardless of life or death!"

Such secret orders did not avoid the intention of Gu Yanfeng. Meng Yanyan knew that Gu Yanfeng had always complained about a fierce general like Zheng Xi. This time, he wanted Gu Yanfeng to know that these things were his orders, and he would also stand up and say something about Zheng Xi in the future.

There are 5,000 Xuan troops at the Xishan Ferry. The secret marching and occupation of Xishan Ferry must be silent. Therefore, the five thousand Xuan troops have only one ending, that is, they are all killed, which is the safest thing.

Once the Xishan Ferry Crossing is taken down, Xuan Song's army will be able to penetrate the hinterland of Luzhou without any obstacles. This time, the plan is that Shucheng County under Luzhou is the purpose of Da Xuan. If you take Shucheng, you will not be afraid that Xiao Zhan will not return to the army. Of course, Shucheng's strategic position is equally important. As long as Shucheng is taken down, Xiao Zhan must give up Xizhou.

"Marty Yue, if you can, it's better not to kill too much." Gu Yanfeng suddenly said to Zheng Xi.

Gu Yanfeng understood Meng Yan's meaning. He was also a soldier. Some things were forced to do. Now that Gu Ning is surrounded, he can only throw himself into a quarrel. He also participated in the formulation of Shucheng and Xizhou's strategic plans.

Zheng Xi grinned and said to Gu Yanfeng: "Duke of Qi, I will do my best. If there is something I can't do, please show mercy to the Duke of Qi." As he said that, the murderous aura in Zheng Xi's eyes became more and more blatant.

Gu Yanfeng closed his eyes helplessly. He knew that a massacre was coming again, and the Central Plains must obtain real peace as soon as possible, otherwise when will the killing like Zheng Xi stop?

That night, Ronghua Town returned to its former quietness, but Gu Ning was wearing a full body in the camp, and Li Chong was also the same.

"Li Chong, tell your brothers to turn around and go to the waterway southeast of Ronghua Town after breaking through. There is a floating bridge there. Quickly pass the floating bridge to rush to Xiao Zhan's camp. Remember, you can only hit once, and the flag must be held under the "Xuan" flag!" Gu Ning ordered with a solemn expression, his voice was not loud, but he was very determined.

"Abide by the military order!" Li Chong stepped out of the camp without looking back, and after walking out, he breathed, thinking: "I finally have to fight with real swords and guns!"

Li Chong didn't know that he took away the 5,000 strongest of the 10,000 people, leaving only 5,000 new troops to Gu Ning.

"How is the authentic tunnel digging?" Gu Ning didn't seem relaxed after Li Chong left. Li Chong's hand-held flag was just to confuse Xiao Zhan, making Xiao Zhan mistakenly think that it was Xuan Song's army that was supporting him.

"Marty, it only takes three days to access Song'an Village in the southwest corner. There are not many people there and are not strategic locations, so Xiao Zhan doesn't care about it. The brothers in Song'an Village are also stepping up digging day and night." Gu Ning's staff officer Ling Yi reported in a low voice.

The team of men in Song'an Village was deliberately left by Gu Ning when he was implementing the strategy, but he was worried that Xiao Zhan would not play according to common sense to surround Ronghua Camp. Sure enough, the brothers in Song'an Village had already started working on the first day after Ronghua Camp was surrounded.

"Let the brothers in the city be quicker. After Li Chong and the others sneak out of the city, the secret passage will be blocked. With Xiao Zhan's ability, at most, we can block all our gaps the day after tomorrow. Then we will become a turtle in the jar!" Gu Ning was a little anxious at first. He didn't want to have another memory of heavy losses.

"Abide by the order! Go and notify them immediately after you get out, and the military families in the city can also help." Ling Yi suggested.

Gu Ning nodded and said, "Let the people in charge of the warehouse take out all the things for everyone to use. We can't stay in Ronghua Town for a few days. After the tunnel is dug, let the military and the people go out first, and then you come and report to me! These Japanese marquises live on the top of the city."

Ling Yigong bowed out of the camp and then quickly walked to the southwest corner. He understood that although Gu Ning did not scold him, he must have been anxious and the progress was too slow. Perhaps Xiao Zhan forced him too much to make Gu Ning have such a situation.

Ling Yi hoped that the two colonels Fu Can and Lan Xiao who were outside would lead troops to rescue him, but Gu Ning never asked for help from them. Fu Can and Lan Xiao were Gu Ning's iron subordinates. What are they doing now?

"Old Lan! Don't be impulsive! The Marquis specifically told us that we must not move without His Majesty or the military orders of the Shutai!" Fu Can pulled Lan Xiao's arm hard and persuaded.

"The Marquis is surrounded! Is it reasonable for us to do this?!" Lan Xiao roared angrily.

"But we cannot violate the order of the Marquis!" Fu Can shouted.

After Lan Xiao patted Fu Can away, he said, "Old Fu, you plan to do nothing!"

Fu Can was about to reply, when someone suddenly stepped into the tent and said loudly: "It's not that you're not doing anything! I'm here, you'll have something to do!"

Liang Ran looked at it and it turned out that it was Zheng Xi who arrived.

Zheng Xi sat in the main seat with a big golden sword, poured himself a glass of water and drank it all, and said, "Fu Can led most of his troops to stay here, waiting to receive Gu Hou! Lan Xiao, you and this Hou will act!"

Zheng Xi's army was full of powerful generals and did not have the ability to lead the army alone. Lan Xiao and Fu Can were both smart generals. They insisted on and led small-scale combat was not a problem. After taking the Xishan Ferry Crossing, he had to arrange most of his troops to march towards Xizhou. Someone needed to stick to the ferry. Lan Xiao was the most suitable. If Fu Can could not do some things, but Lan Xiao didn't care.

"Uh, does the Marquis want it?" Fu Can asked first.

"Your Majesty has an order to secretly march to seize the Xishan Ferry and to receive the Huaihou army to attack Shucheng County. No mistakes are allowed!" Zheng Xi said briefly, there are some things that need to be said. The Daxuan army does not hide their own personal information. Most of his troops are now on board the Meixian Ferry.

On April 27th, on the third day of Xiao Zhan's fierce attack on Ronghua Town, he was confident that he had already lost the surrounding Ronghua Town and could not even fly a bird. However, he still admired Gu Ning in his heart. He also heard about Gu Ning's affairs in the Great Wilderness Mountain. He still insisted on it after three days of fighting. And according to his judgment, Gu Ning's troops did not lose much, but there should be many serious injuries.

"Prince! Ronghua Town suddenly became dark!" His subordinates rushed to report.

Xiao Zhan was stunned and hurried out to see that Ronghua Town was like a dead place, with no movement at all. He was still fighting to the death in the afternoon, but there was no sound at night. This was abnormal and a bad feeling surged in his heart.

"Call up everyone! Attack Ronghua Town at night!" Xiao Zhan could not judge what happened for a moment, so he must speed up his capture of Ronghua Town now.

Ning Jun was not good at night battles. When everyone slowly approached Ronghua Town, they found that the gate of Ronghua Town was half-closed. He pushed it open with courage and was completely stunned. The entire Ronghua Town had no vitality at all.
Chapter completed!
