Tongkai City was lost. Next, after Ye Qing stabilized Tongkai City, Mo Xiaobao and Monk Chen encountered no resistance when they continued to advance to Xianping Prefecture. At the same time, Yelu Yixue, Yelu Shibei, Wanyan Xielie, Qishilie Baishan and others were also advancing towards Xianping Prefecture.

When the three armies arrived at the city of Xianping Prefecture, they were not waiting for the spies from the Song army and the scouts to find out the troops and defensive arrangements of the Xianping Prefecture, the prefect of Xianping Prefecture led the remaining officials in the city to raise white flags and open the city gates. A group of dozens of people slowly walked out of the city gate to surrender.

This scene even scared the scouts and spies who had just arrived at Xianping Prefecture. Some scouts' first reaction was to retreat quickly and report to the camp behind them.

After receiving the news, Ye Qing was also confused and frowned for almost a cup of tea. Because Xianping Prefecture was abandoned by the Jin army, it was something he had never expected.

In just half an hour, Chen Qi, the prefect of Xianping Prefecture, was taken to the camp by Mo Xiaobao, and behind the two were the other surrendered officials of Xianping Prefecture.

When he saw the calm expression of Chen Qi, the prefect of Xianping Prefecture, and the scene where other officials were not depressed at all, Ye Qing's brows instantly frowned even tighter. This situation made him feel more and more unusual.

Thinking of the prefect of Tongkai City, Tan Zhiwang, who was almost indifferent to the failure after the city was broken, Ye Qing felt vaguely whether he had missed something.

So when he was asking Chen Qi and other officials of Xianping Prefecture, Ye Qing secretly asked Mo Xiaobao to investigate the situation around Xianping Prefecture to see if the Jin army wanted to lure the enemy deeper and trap them in Xianping Prefecture.

When the sun sets west again, Mo Xiaobao, who personally led people to investigate around him, shook his head at Ye Qing after returning to the camp, signaling that he had never found that even a Jin army had never met a scout of the Jin army.

Such an abnormal situation made Ye Qing frown even more deeply. When Mo Xiaobao led people to investigate around him, he had already asked Chen Qi and others one by one, and the answers they gave were the same, that is: for some reason, suddenly, the Jin army retreated overnight last night.

Mo Xiaobao looked at the worried Ye Qing, thought for a while and guessed: "Can it be that Qi Shilie's Gods slaves have taken action, so the army here has to give up Xianping, so that they can mobilize troops to defend Huining Mansion?"

"It shouldn't be." Ye Qing shook his head and said, "The slaves of the gods outside Huining Mansion have not yet fully entered the jurisdiction of Huining Mansion. The reason for this is that they are afraid that the Jin people will shrink from the enemy's sides and thus hold a certain city, no longer engage in large-scale battles with us, but will fight against our soldiers and fight against our generals in a head-on battle. It makes us cruising and it is difficult to play the speed of being unpredictable."

"If this is the case, then there are still masters in the Jin army." Mo Xiaobao frowned and continued, "The army gathered together and gave up other cities. This is... This is to fight a protracted war with us, and it is to use time to delay us until the arrival of winter, right?" "Yes, if this is the case, the Xianping Mansion was abandoned and could be explained. But where would they choose to stand stalemate with us? The Battle of Goryeo seems to have given the imperial guards a lot of enlightenment, making them realize that the war does not have to be won, but as long as the stalemate is not over, they may be able to laugh to the end." Ye Qing sneered a sneer.

"If we send troops to search for their main force right now, and break them up before they have gained a foothold..." Mo Xiaobao thought for a while, and still hoped to find the enemy and annihilate the enemy through their mobility of surpassing any army.

"It's very difficult, almost no feasibility." Ye Qing sighed, and then said: "The Jin army withdrew from Xianping Prefecture. Although the Xianping Prefect Chen Qi said that he didn't know the reason, he just said that the retreat was a bit hasty. No matter what he said was credible or not, at least it could be confirmed that abandoning Xianping Prefecture was obviously their choice to plan and then act, and it was definitely not because of the pressure we put on them. After all, no matter what, after Tongkai lost, they had time to re-set defense in Xianping Prefecture."

"What should we do now? This city... or not?" Mo Xiaobao asked.

Ye Qing looked at Mo Xiaobao, and then said, "Monkey Wanyan Chen has gone to investigate Xianping City. Calculate the time. It's time to come back at this time."

As soon as Ye Qing finished speaking, the voice of Monk Wanyan Chen sounded outside. Looking at Monk Wanyan Chen's expression, Ye Qing and Mo Xiaobao couldn't help but look at each other, and both realized that the news brought back by Monk Wanyan Chen may not necessarily be good news.

"Even if there is no soldier in the Xianping Prefecture, although the people are in a panic, there are not many people leaving the city. The officials of the government are all in the camp. Now burning, killing, looting and looting happens frequently in the city, and there are also people who kill and set fire. In the end, they have already seen several places of fire and some mobs who robbed some shops. So they hurriedly sent people to investigate several granaries in Xianping City, which were already crowded with people robbing food. Then they heard that the grain in the granary had been taken away long ago, leaving only a small part of the food..." Monk Wanyan Chen said.

"Leaving a very small part of the food is nothing more than asking the people in the city to grab it, so as to cause trouble for us to enter Xianping Prefecture

, let the people face us." Mo Xiaobao analyzed.

"Are there any soldiers left in the city to maintain order?" Ye Qing did not care about food, because if the Jin army took the initiative to abandon it, it would have to take away all the food and grass.

"A lot of soldiers have been left, and they have begun to patrol along the street. As long as they encounter burning, killing, smashing, looting, they will stop my life immediately. But I am afraid that the gourd will rise again. I am afraid that the army will not enter the city, and it will be difficult for Xianping to completely restore peace. So..." Monk Wanyan Chen said with a puzzled look on his face.

Ye Qing sighed slightly, walked out of the camp with his hands behind his back, and watched the last sunset disappear, and said, "No matter what, it seems that we must enter the city. I know that now, officials like Chen Qi and others need to help us maintain order in the city. Mo Xiaobao... go and talk to them."

"I will understand." Mo Xiaobao nodded, and then immediately walked into the tent where Chen Qi and dozens of Xianping Prefecture officials were located.

Monk Wanyan Chen began to command the Huahua Army and Zhongxiao Army to prepare to enter Xianping City at night, while Ye Qing returned to his central army tent and began to think about what the purpose of the Jin army's voluntary retreat was for.

It was not until late at night that Ye Qing led his army into Xianping City. But even late at night, even though Monk Wanyan Chen had sent soldiers to patrol along the street, after Ye Qing and the others entered the city, they could still see some places in the city from time to time. Although the doors of the shops on the street were closed, when they entered the city, they still saw many people forcibly smashing the doors of the shops and then plundering them.

Mo Xiaobao and Wanyan Chen had to increase their troops to patrol the streets again under Ye Qing's gloomy face, while escorting Ye Qing and others to the government office of Xianping Prefecture.

Zhao Paner, who had been following Ye Qing, was still shocking at everything they saw in Xianping City since they entered the city. At this moment, she once again realized the cruel side that war would bring to the people.

Unlike when he entered Tongkai City, the people hid at home and did not dare to go out due to the siege. Therefore, when the Song Dynasty army entered, there would be some people who took advantage of this opportunity to do evil, but fortunately the riots lasted very short, and Tan Zhiwang spared no effort to maintain order, so although Tongkai City was in chaos, fortunately the order was still there.

Since Chen Qi and others left the city, the entire Xianping City seemed to have returned to the barbaric era. Li Shi'er even saw several women in a corner surrounded by several sweats.

If Jia She and the others had not stepped forward to stop it in time, Zhao Pan'er knew very well that everything that happened next might have completely destroyed the women, even the family behind them.

It was precisely because when entering Xianping City, he saw too many scenes of committing crimes, burning, killing, looting, that Zhao Paner unconsciously blamed all of these charges on Ye Qing.

In her opinion, if Ye Qing did not attack Xianping, then Xianping would not be like this. If Ye Qing did not attack the entire Jin Kingdom, then... the entire Jin Kingdom would not become like this. Therefore, the culprit of all this was entirely because Ye Qing launched a war against the Jin Kingdom.

At this time, Ye Qing had no mind to follow him, and he would take his eyes on Zhao Paner from time to time.

After entering the government office of Xianping Prefecture, Ye Qing began to issue various orders, and even gave death orders to Mo Xiaobao. In any case, before dawn, the entire Xianping City must be restored to its original order.

After Mo Xiaobao settled Chen Qi and other original Xianping Prefecture officials, after receiving Ye Qing's order, he whispered in Ye Qing's ear: "King Yan, Chen Qi has offered conditions."

"I have surrendered, how dare I negotiate with me?" Ye Qing asked frowned.

Mo Xiaobao nodded, and said with a serious expression: "Chen Qi's condition is that as long as you can ensure that the people of Xianping Prefecture have enough food and give them food, then they are willing to surrender to us and help us maintain order in Xianping Prefecture."

"Is this what Chen Qi said?" Ye Qing's heart moved. He heard this sound familiar. It seemed that he had just heard Tan Zhiwang say it in Tongkai City two days ago.

"Although it's not a word, it means that. In short, it means to ask for food. As long as there is food, they are willing to surrender." Mo Xiaobao said with certainty.

At this time, Ye Qing began to feel a little strange in his heart. At the same time, he missed Master Liu Ke even more because he wanted to know how Master Liu Ke did these comforting matters every time after he conquered the city in front?

How could he use the original officials smoothly at that time? Why did he have to make requirements with him first when he got here!

Ye Qing was silent for a while, then said to Mo Xiaobao: "You go and do it first, I'll think about it, and then... I'll go and talk to Chen Qi in person."

Mo Xiaobao nodded and left. Ye Qing sat alone in the chair and thought, without notice at all. Zhao Paner, who had arrived at the yamen office, was always depressed and rolled his eyes at him from time to time.

Is it a coincidence? Or is it a premeditated? Ye Qing sat on the chair and thought about it. Tan Zhiwang and Chen Qi, the two offered the same conditions for themselves, so is this a coincidence? Or... the officials who loved the people as much as their children happened to be

Have you encountered it? Are the officials who had encountered in the Jin Kingdom who were careless and fed their own pockets still officials of the Jin Kingdom?

Zhao Paner looked at Ye Qing in contemplation and felt even more angry for a moment, but she obviously knew that Ye Qing could not be provoked at this time, otherwise, it would be as simple as being knocked on his forehead again.

So when he looked at Zhao Paner who had not noticed his emotions at all, he stood up and snorted, stomped his feet. Seeing that Ye Qing still had no reaction, he walked out of the hall where only Ye Qing was there unhappily.

When he walked to the door of the hall, he looked up at the deviant crescent moon. When he let his thoughts fly aimlessly, Jia She's voice sounded behind him: "Miss Pan'er, it's cold outside, why don't you accompany King Yan inside?" Zhao Pan'er, who was shocked to look back, looked at Jia She with concern, and naturally, he regarded Jia She as a bird of a feather with Ye Qing, so his eyes were instantly filled with disgust, and he snorted heavily with his nostrils to express her dissatisfaction.

Jia She was a little confused, but thought that she might have been scolded by King Yan again, or that King Yan had teased her again, so she smiled and planned to continue to inspect the guards of the entire yamen office. Zhao Paner couldn't help but say to Jia She: "Executioner!"

"What?" Jia She said in confusion.

"Tell me that the person inside is the executioner!" Zhao Paner was worried that he had no place to vent his dissatisfaction and depression, so he said to Jia She.

Jia She looked around him and there was no one except a few torches. It was obvious that Zhao Paner was talking about him.

"Am I? Why did I become an executioner?" Jia She asked curiously.

"Why did you become an executioner? Haven't you seen everything happening in the city along the way? He pretended not to see it, but didn't you see it either?" Zhao Paner's heart was so unfair and nameless that Jia Shejiu rushed towards his forehead.

She even forgot that when she saw the two women surrounded by a few big sweats, it was Jia She who came forward to drive them away to help them rescue the two women.

Jia She finally understood why Zhao Paner was outside, and finally understood Zhao Paner in a bad mood.

After listening to Zhao Paner criticizing their crimes after attacking Xianping Prefecture, Jia She couldn't help but roll his eyes and sighed: "Then why don't you say that the Jin Kingdom caused the harm caused to me by the Song Dynasty? If everything happened in Xianping Prefecture is now, you can only blame them. What's more, compared to their atrocities against us back then, what's going on? If it weren't for the kindness of the King of Yan, I'm afraid the Xianping Prefecture would have been a ghost town. There was no need to make a scheming to occupy Liaoyang, but to attack with troops from Yuguan. Think about it, how many people in the Jin Kingdom would have suffered with each other? Now the King of Yan has controlled the impact on the people to the lowest point. Do you still complain? Besides, even if you want to complain, you should complain about the prefect of Xianping Chen Qi and others. If they weren't for leaving irresponsible..."

When he said this, Jia She was suddenly stunned, as if she had realized something suddenly. She ignored Zhao Paner, whose anger had been mostly relieved, and suddenly turned her head and ran into the hall, causing Zhao Paner who was left behind to look puzzled. She didn't know what Jia She suddenly thought of.

At this time, Ye Qing in the hall had almost determined that Tan Zhiwang from Tongkai City and Chen Qi from Xianping Prefecture had all offered him the conditions he had made in advance, and their purpose... was obviously to rely on the city to consume their food and grass, and eventually dragged down himself with food and grass, making him unable to continue to attack gold.

"King of Yan..." Jia She rushed in and looked at Ye Qing frowned, and couldn't help but pause.

"What's the matter?" Ye Qing asked, staring at him. Behind Jia She, Zhao Paner followed him silently again.

"Chen Qi deliberately left the city today. If he really cared about the people, then he should know that once he led other officials from Xianping to surrender and leave the empty city behind him, it would inevitably cause chaos in the city, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil. In addition, when the Jin army retreated, there was a little food left in the granary. Finally, he thought that this was probably the intentional act of the Jin people, to cause chaos in Xianping Prefecture and prevent us from cleaning up the mess." Jia She said everything he had just thought of.

"Yes, it was indeed their intentional." Ye Qing sighed slightly, stood up and paced back and forth, "Chen Qi stayed intentionally, and Tan Zhiwang also stayed intentionally. They used the guise of caring about the people, and their purpose was mainly to consume our food and grass with the help of the people waiting to eat, so as to achieve the goal of retreating without fighting. As for Chen Qi surrendering today and leaving Xianping Mansion, as you have guessed, it is to allow us to use the chaos of the people to cause chaos to us, thus disrupting our plans and giving them time to consolidate the line of defense."

Speaking of this, Ye Qing raised his head and looked directly at Zhao Paner, with sharp eyes and solemn expressions. He suddenly said to Zhao Paner, "Summon Liu Ke to Xianping immediately. No matter what, you must be fast. Give him three days to no one, and then you will be engaged in military law!"

Zhao Paner, who was thinking about it, was shocked by the sudden name. However, after hearing Ye Qing's order, he immediately sent someone to send a letter to Yanjing without hesitation.
