At this moment, Nangong Tianheng held the battle report in his hand and said with an excited smile, and then saw him hand it to Sima Qing.
Sima Qing took one look and frowned involuntarily.
"Wang Qiushan actually came back alive?"
Sima Qing asked rhetorically.
"His boy is lucky. He has just informed someone that he is coming this afternoon to discuss a major military matter. Why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of this guy."
Nangong Tianheng said.
"No, no."
Sima Qing frowned and said.[
"What's wrong?"
"Liu Xia's cultivation is extremely high. Our family leader died in his hands. If he wanted to kill Wang Qiu Shan, how could he let Wang Qiu Shan live? I think there must be a fraud in this!"
Sima Qing said.
"Perhaps Liu Xia was careless."
"I can't. Although I have never fought against Liu Xia, this person is extremely thoughtful and will never make such a mistake. Go and inquire about the movements of Liu Xia's army."
Sima Qing ordered.
Immediately, Nangong Tianheng also reacted and rushed out without any explanation.
After a while, Nangong Tianheng returned to the main tent and said: "According to the reports from our spies, Liu Xia's army has not made any moves. Are we too worried?"
"Maybe."
Sima Qing said.
"Report, the company general has an urgent report."
Immediately, a soldier handed the urgent message to Nangong Tianheng.
After Nangong Tianheng took a look, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Lian Peiyun wrote that he was going to come to Maoping today to discuss future plans. Haha, it seems that Wang Qiushan did not surrender successfully, but Lian Peiyun also gave up on Zhao'an.
.In this way, our military morale will be stable and we can still fight against Liu Xia."
"Why are these all so strange?"
Sima Qing always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out where the problem was.[
"Mr. Sima, you may be too tired recently. Anyway, there is no movement from Liu Xia, so we might as well make two preparations. If they come alone, we will rest assured. If they come with troops, we will take advantage of the opportunity.
Get rid of them. Then make plans."
Nangong Tianheng said.
"That's all it can do."
Sima Qing said.
————————————————————————
At ten o'clock at noon, spring is blooming outside Maoping City.
Wang Qiushan arrived with more than thirty soldiers, followed closely by Lian Peiyun.
After a brief communication, they headed towards the Chinese army camp.
On the way, Wang Qiushan kept wiping his sweat, obviously a little nervous.
Lian Peiyun, on the other hand, remained calm and composed.
And among the two soldiers, there was a young man with his head lowered, that was Liu Xia.
"Your Highness, are you completely sure?"
Wang Qiushan asked still a little worried.
"Don't worry, as long as we follow our plan, Maoping must be destroyed. As long as Maoping is destroyed, the main force of the Nangong family will be completely destroyed. There is no need to worry."
Liu Xia said.
"Yes yes yes."
Wang Qiushan wiped the sweat from his forehead and followed Lian Peiyun towards the Chinese army's tent.
As soon as they arrived outside the big tent, they saw Sima Qing and Nangong Tianheng waiting outside.
"See Overseer."
Immediately, Wang Qiushan and Lian Peiyun knelt on the ground and saluted with clasped fists.
"You two have come from afar, please get up quickly."
Immediately, Nangong Tianheng helped them up and moved them into the hall.
After the guests and hosts took their seats, Nangong Tianheng said: "You two came to Maoping this time for our counterattack?"
"To be honest with the governor, this is indeed the reason. As the monsoon season is approaching, it is time for the southeastern pirates to send troops. In this way, the imperial army will be attacked from both sides. We will have the opportunity to separate them and defeat them one by one.
In this way, our Nangong family still has a chance to benefit from it."
Lian Peiyun smiled.
"Hahahaha. Mr. Sima and I have been discussing in the past few days. Now that we have two people joining us, we have a greater chance of winning."
Nangong Tianheng said with a smile.
"It's just that I have something to report to the warlord."
At this moment, Wang Qiushan suddenly said.
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
Nangong Tianheng said.
"I'm afraid it's not very convenient here."
Wang Qiushan glanced around and smiled lightly.
"You all, please step back."
Nangong Tianheng saw that they had only brought a few soldiers with them, and they were all blocked outside the tent at the moment. There was nothing to worry about.
When the guards around him had just retreated, Nangong Tianheng asked impatiently: "I wonder what General Wang is going to say?"
"Haha, easy. Do it!"
Wang Qiushan shouted loudly, and a figure immediately rushed into the Chinese army's tent.
Suddenly, a bloody sword energy spread across the sky. In an instant, Nangong Tianheng was hit, and his whole body was immediately thrown away. However, Liu Xia grabbed him and pushed him directly to the ground.
Just as Sima Qing was about to scream, Wang Qiushan and Lian Peiyun immediately pounced on him and pushed him to the ground without any explanation.
Immediately, Peiyun killed Sima Qing without even giving him a chance.
Immediately, Nangong Tianheng and Sima Qing were both killed.
The commotion inside still attracted the attention of the guards outside. After hearing the footsteps, Liu Xia picked up Nangong Tianheng from the ground, hurriedly took out a human skin mask and put it on him, and then put Nangong Tianheng's human skin mask on him.
Put it on yourself.
Then, he covered up the blood stains on the ground and quickly returned to his original appearance.
At this moment, the door of the Chinese army's tent was opened with a bang.
"presumptuous!'
Liu Xia drank it immediately.
The soldier looked up and saw Nangong Tianheng sitting on the commander's seat with a livid face. He did not dare to speak, so he hurriedly clasped his fists and retreated.
All three people breathed a sigh of relief.
"Immediately execute according to our established plan. Hurry."
Liu Xia shouted.
Wang Qiushan and Lian Peiyun hurriedly left the Chinese army's tent and conveyed orders to the soldiers.
Liu Xia, on the other hand, was sitting in the Chinese army's tent and issued an order to mobilize Wang Qiushan's and Lian Peiyun's troops to gather in Maoping.
After the order was issued, natural persons blocked it.
That night, Wang Qiushan's army and Lian Peiyun's army entered Maoping City.
Immediately, there was a burst of fighting sounds in Maoping City, and then Wang Qiushan led his people towards the city wall, while Lian Peiyun led his men and horses straight to the military camp in the city.
The poor Maoping defenders were unprepared and were immediately caught off guard.
Sitting in the Chinese army camp, Liu Xia heard the sound of fighting outside, and the last stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
At this time, Wang Qiushan, who occupied the city wall, sent a signal to the southern expedition army outside the city. Song Tianyou rushed in with his troops and captured Maoping almost effortlessly.
The Nangong family's army, which had fled, encountered a fierce blockade from the Southern Expedition army outside Maoping City, resulting in numerous casualties.
By early morning, the fighting was over.
Throughout Maoping City, corpses lay everywhere and blood flowed like rivers.
Groups of Nangong family soldiers were captured, and Wang Qiushan and Lian Peiyun also took the time to clean up the battlefield.
The Southern Expedition Army began to set off to wipe out the defeated Nangong family soldiers around Maoping.
Liu Xia stood on the city wall of Maoping and looked into the city. He saw the smoke billowing in the distance and the fire burning non-stop. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Your Highness, after last night's battle with more than 40,000 people from the Nangong family stationed in Maoping City, more than half were killed or injured. We captured about 6,000 soldiers. Less than 4,000 people broke out. Now the army is chasing. I believe that by tomorrow, we will definitely
I can annihilate your entire army."
Song Tianyou happily walked to Liu Xia's side and smiled.
"knew."
Liu Xia put her hands behind her back and said calmly.
"Your Highness, I have something that I don't understand, and I would like your Highness to give you some advice."
Song Tianyou was about to turn around and leave, but he hesitated and then stopped and asked.
"Haha, that's it."
"When Weichen drew lots, he specifically selected a coastal village. The head of the Zhang family and I are a little confused, and we would like to ask Your Highness to make it clear."
Song Tianyou smiled awkwardly.
Originally, Liu Xia had tampered with the drawing of lots as a reward, and Song Tianyou knew it well.
However, after winning the lottery, it is inevitable to be disappointed.
It was originally the most difficult place in the Nangong family's territory, and it was also the first place where pirates would log in after arriving.
Therefore, the people there are sparsely populated and the economy is very backward.
I can't help but feel a little aggrieved.
It's just that he has been busy in the past few days, and now that the Nangong family's army has been completely destroyed, he can't help but ask after all.
"Haha, Mr. Song, I have already seen that tidal flat. The winding coastline is a natural port. After the pirates are completely eliminated, we can build there. By then, your Song family and Zhang family will have
Port to sea.”
"That's it. Thank you, Your Highness."
Song Tianyou immediately clasped his fists and said.
At this time, Liu Xia looked up and saw the flags of the Southern Expedition that were roaring, and slowly changed its direction.
"What day is today?"
Liu Xia asked.
"Back to Your Highness, today is the Spring Equinox."
Song Tianyou said.
"It looks like the monsoon season is coming."
Liu Xia said calmly.
Song Tianyou knew that after the Nangong family was wiped out, he would immediately face the pirates.
After much calculation, now that the wind direction has changed, I am afraid that in another seven or eight days, the first batch of pirates will arrive.
"Go ahead with the order and pursue the Nangong family's defeated army with all your strength. Three days later, the army will set off southward. It's time to put an end to the last concern of the imperial court."
"As commanded."
After Song Tianyou finished speaking, he hurriedly turned around and left.
In recent years, pirates have gathered in groups during the monsoon. In the past few years, they only caused trouble at sea. In recent years, they have become more and more courageous.
Zaiye is closely related to the Nangong family's attitude towards pirates.
Now that the Nangong family has been destroyed and the pirates have no foothold in Dragon Soul Continent, it is easier to deal with them.
However, dealing with them this time is more than just encircling and repelling them.
What is needed is to permanently eliminate the troubles here.
Liu Xia already had a rough plan in mind, and Yang Fan's overseas days were coming soon.
