In Lingzhou City, Nangong Yu rarely had a fierce quarrel with Xiao Qiu. Since Xiao Qiu came to Lingzhou, Nangong Yu had been holding his breath, and today it completely broke out.

"Where are the reinforcements! Where are the reinforcements promised by King Fu! And why are your Fuzhou troops missing? Just watching my 50,000 elite soldiers die outside the city!" Nangong Yu slapped the table and cursed angrily.

They had not received news of the defeat of the reinforcements, so in Nangong Yu's opinion, it was simply that King Fu did not send reinforcements and simply wanted to rely on the strength of the Nangong family to consume Liangzhou's military strength.

Now that I have the capital to establish myself, there are only seven or eight thousand defeated soldiers left in Nangong's original fifty or sixty thousand soldiers. With the addition of a few people left behind in the city, it is worth over ten thousand.

This is all the wealth that the Nangong family has accumulated through so many years of hard work, and it was all lost in one day.

Nangong Yu originally counted on these elite soldiers to find a good future for himself, but now he has tens of thousands of soldiers in his hands and feels more at ease. Now everything has become empty talk.

"General Nangong!" A trace of anger appeared on Xiao Qiu's face. A surrendered general dared to yell at him: "Prince Fu cannot deliberately put you in a dangerous situation. Something must have happened that we don't know about."

, before the battle situation is clear, please don’t slander anyone!”

"What about you! Where are your cavalry!" Nangong Yuzhi shouted there.

"Asshole! Go and see the corpses of my Fuzhou cavalry outside the west gate! Five thousand of them were all killed! What are you yelling about here?" Xiao Qiu couldn't hold back any longer, and he also slapped the table and started to curse.

Nangong Yu suddenly choked and sat in his seat without talking.

Seeing that the two leaders finally stopped arguing, the generals on both sides in the room finally breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't care about the dead people outside. What they cared about was whether they could survive in the future.

On top of the city, the captain Deng Wen, who had been slapped twice by Xiao Qiu, stood up cautiously and asked: "Two generals, the top priority is what should we do next. There is Liangzhou outside the city.

The army is watching with eager eyes."

Hearing someone ask what they wanted to ask, the generals in the room all looked at Deng Wen gratefully.

Xiao Qiu raised his eyelids and said: "There is nothing to discuss. The entire army will stick to Lingzhou. No soldier will leave the city without the order from King Fu!"

Everyone looked at each other and didn't dare to say a word.

"No!" Nangong Yu said in a deep voice: "There are only fifteen thousand soldiers in Lingzhou City. How can we face the Liangzhou soldiers outside the city? Are you willing to have all these people die?"

Nangong Yu finally said what everyone in the room was thinking, who still wants to stay in this ghost place like Lingzhou now.

They want to live, and Nangong Yu also wants to live.

"Let's see who dares!" Xiao Qiu suddenly became angry again: "Without King Fu's order, I will kill anyone who dares to leave the city!"

Xiao Qiu was also famous for his bad temper under Prince Fu. After saying this, he slapped the sword in his waist on the table and looked at Nangong Yu angrily.

In the silent hall, looking at Xiao Qiu with an angry face, Nangong Yuli ignored Xiao Qiu and walked away. Xiao Qiu gave a cold shout and walked out of the hall, leaving behind a bunch of dejected generals.

The good news from Lingzhou reached the Liuzhou camp, and Yu Wencheng Huale in the city beamed with joy. Unexpectedly, Chenyue's army had won a great victory less than a month after arriving in Lingzhou.

Yuwen Chenghua had attacked Donghai City several times in the past few days, but all failed, losing troops and generals. He was disgraced and had no choice but to retreat to Liuzhou.

"Come here!" Yuwen Chenghua shouted: "Report victory to the capital!"

After many days of expedition, there was no good news. He, the Minister of War, had already attracted criticism. If there were no more achievements, Yu Wen Hongru in the capital might not be able to bear it. It was time to report some good news to the capital.

King Fu's account

A captain who escaped from the ambush was reporting the military situation with his whole body trembling.

After hearing what he said, Zhou Weiran on the side became extremely angry and stepped forward and kicked the captain to the ground.

"What! The entire army has been wiped out. How can the Liangzhou Army still have extra strength to ambush you while dealing with the Lingzhou War? You have 35,000 people. To kill you, you will have to send at least 50,000 to 60,000 people."

"General, we don't know. Our infantry was marching all the way, and then General Deng's cavalry in front was blocked in front of a large armored formation, and was about to let us go into battle. On the hillsides on both sides, large groups of cavalry came out, going back and forth.

We were unprepared for the charge and were caught off guard. Our brothers suffered heavy casualties." The captain who was kicked to the ground said with a sad face.

Zhou Weiran became furious and turned to look at his father.

Prince Fu Zhou Tongfu, who had been silent all this time, asked calmly: "Where is Deng Jian'an?"

The captain did not dare to raise his head: "I heard from a soldier who escaped together that Deng, General Deng was killed on the spot."

Zhou Tongfu frowned and clenched his left hand tightly into a fist.

Looking at King Fu who fell into silence again, Zhou Weiran waved his hand, and the captain who was kneeling on the ground exited the tent as if he had received an amnesty, his head already covered with sweat.

Zhou Weiran stood with his hands behind his back, standing quietly beside Zhou Tongfu without disturbing his father's thoughts.

After a long time, Zhou Tongfu's slightly hoarse voice sounded again: "How is Chenyue's intelligence collection going?"

Zhou Weiran was stunned for a moment and then answered: "Chen Yue was born in a small mountain village in Liangzhou. He climbed up the ladder step by step during the Zhou Yan War a year ago. He was promoted from a pawn to the deputy general of Liangzhou by virtue of his military exploits. Later, he was promoted to deputy general of Liangzhou.

With the recommendation of Xiao Zhengye, he was appointed as the general of Liangzhou, especially in the battle outside Wuguan where he killed the sixth prince of Yanrong, which made him famous all over the world."

"You came from a poor family? You climbed to where you are today in just two or three years?" Zhou Tongfu was a little surprised. The opponents he had always paid attention to were mainly the three big families, the Yuwen family, the Chang family, and the Nangong family. For a rising star like Chenyue

Really don't pay much attention to it.

Zhou Weiran continued: "Yes, so we don't know anything about this person's character. But judging from several major battles, this person has always used troops unconventionally. He often uses weak troops to gain an advantage in local battlefields. It is said that

Whenever there is a war, I am always at the forefront."

"Okay, let's not talk about him anymore. Alas, it's a pity that Deng Jian'an has been with me for so many years." Zhou Tongfu stopped asking about Chenyue's situation, stood up slowly, and sighed.

Zhou Weiran naturally knew Deng Jianan's position in his father's heart and quickly comforted him with a few words.

"Let the army withdraw to Hefu County first, and ignore Wuzhou for the time being." Zhou Tongfu said lightly.

Before Zhou Weiran could answer, Zhou Tongfu continued: "In addition, send a message back to Fuzhou and call Ouyang Jing over."

"Okay!" Zhou Weiran's steps trembled when he heard the name, but he nodded in agreement, turned around and walked out of the barracks to deliver the order.
