After the war, Duyang City entered a relatively peaceful period, and Su Yan also took advantage of this time to train troops or build equipment to prepare for the future war.
The battle situation in Liaozhou is still stable. Li Tianyang's ability to reach his current position is beyond doubt. In his hands, the battle situation gradually stabilizes and no longer suffers defeat. Some lost territory is gradually taken back. .
Although the overall situation is positive and positive, Gu Yu is still at a disadvantage, and bad news is naturally inevitable, such as the problems facing Su Yan now.
"Qingqiu City," Su Yan held the letter in his hand and his brows gradually frowned.
"Yes," Zhao Dachui and Su Yang both stood in front of Su Yan, paused, and Zhao Dachui spoke again: "Qingqiu City is in our northeast direction, slightly closer to Kongsang's sphere of influence than us, so we first meet When Kongsang attacked, the opponent had not yet formed a siege. However, he sent troops from time to time to attack and then retreated back to the city. However, despite this, it also put a lot of pressure on Qingqiu City."
"Then why would the other party ask us for help? We are just a small town," Su Yan was holding a letter of help from Qingqiu City, which surprised Su Yan.
"The general may not know that we are famous now. Since the war started, there have been few big victories like us, so other places naturally think that we are very strong. Moreover, Qingqiu City is far away from Liaozhou City. There is also Kong Sang's sphere of influence in the middle, so it is almost impossible to ask for help from Liaozhou City, so he turned his attention to us who are not far from them."
Zhao Dahui was clearer about the situation around him and explained it to Su Yan.
Su Yan pondered his hands behind his back, then turned his head to look at the map, his fingers swept over it, and his brows frowned.
"What do you think," Su Yan didn't turn around and asked.
"I think that I should send troops. After all, the other party is our friendly army and has asked us for help. If we leave it alone, it may be inappropriate," Zhao Dachui thought for a while and then said.
"I think so too, and Qingqiu City is not far from us. If we go to rescue this time, then there will be a strong ally in the north of us, which will be beneficial to us," Su Yang also Tell your own opinion.
"Then let's answer him," Su Yan thought for a moment and agreed. He also agreed with what Su Yang said. The battle situation was chaotic and it was impossible to keep it alone. If the other party conquers Qingqiu City, it will threaten To many surrounding cities.
"Where is their messenger," Su Yan asked casually.
"I've arranged it in the inn," Su Yang said.
"Kongsang has not yet formed a siege against Qingqiu, right?"
"Yes,"
"It's good, let's go and see the situation first, there is no need to lead troops. Make arrangements after reading the follow-up matters." Since the other party did not siege the city, it's useless for Su Yan to lead troops there now. Why not go and see it first? Depend on the situation and decide what happens next.
"You two come with me and just bring twenty good players with you. If you go too much, it will be a burden. Let's go now,"
"yes,"
Su Yan changed his clothes and explained some things. He brought the troops from Su Yang to pick them up. The group first arrived at the inn, took the messenger from that side, and left the city.
Qingqiu City is not far from Duyang City, and it is less than half a day's journey. In addition, Su Yan has few people, so he quickly arrived at his destination.
The size of Qingqiu City is similar to that of Duyang City, and is a little larger than Jiangling City. The defenders are about two or three thousand, and it is also considered a strong city in this border.
But facing the surging Kongsang army, even the strongest city was useless. Although the other party was siege, the pressure had almost suffocated the people in the city.
After Su Yan entered the city, he truly felt this depressing atmosphere. There were very few pedestrians in the street, and some shops were closed with their doors. Occasionally, pedestrians passed by, and they looked hurried, as if they were dull before the heavy rain came.
After entering the city, the group slowed down, and Su Yan pulled the reins and looked around.
Suddenly, a noise came from afar, mixed with some loud shouts and scoldings. Later, there were people screaming.
"What's going on," Su Yan frowned and asked.
"It must be someone making trouble," the messenger who led Su Yan all the way said with some bitterness.
"Making trouble," Su Yan was puzzled and took action on the street market. The chaotic troublemaker was a bit too brave.
"Oh, I must have seen the situation in this city. Since the other party attacked the city, the people in the city have been in panic. Some gangsters and gangsters can't leave the city, so they started to cause trouble, which has become more and more intense. Now the government cannot suppress them. Lived because there are so many,"
"So that's the case. Why don't the government let the army quell the chaos? If this continues, there will be a big mess," Su Yan nodded thoughtfully. He could understand what the messenger said. The city was trapped in the city. The people are under too much pressure, and such things are inevitable.
"Sometimes, they will come out to quell the chaos, but such things are too always there. The soldiers can't run around for these things all day long," the messenger looked bitter and shook his head. The situation in Qingqiu City can be imagined.
"It makes sense, okay, let's go and have a look first."
Su Yan took the lead in waving the whip and ran towards the place where the sound came.
When Su Yan and his group arrived, the first thing that caught their eye was a crazy melee, with forty or fifty people divided into two groups, roaring and fighting together, and many people even held sticks in their hands. A kind of weapon, without mercy.
As the sticks fell, there were continuous howlings, and people fell to the ground one after another, with blood all over their faces, and the scene was extremely bloody.
"stop,"
Su Yan shouted loudly, trying to stop the melee, but his roar only made the people stumble, and then they wrestled again, with a mad look on their eyes.
"Pull them apart,"
Su Yan's eyes were cold, and he ordered the guards behind him. Then the group turned over and dismounted and broke into the middle of them.
Those who followed Su Yan were all good players in the army, so naturally these gangsters could not match them. They subdued one person in just a few seconds and then pressed it to the ground.
However, there were many people fighting, with forty or fifty people. Although Su Yan's guards were powerful, they could not hold back so many people.
Su Yan couldn't bear to see it anymore, so he turned over and dismounted, came to their front, and kept slapped his palms. Each palm fell down, and a man flew out far away like a rolling gourd, falling to the ground and wailing.
Su Yan had a sense of responsibility in his hand, just sending the other party out so that he could no longer stand up and thus control the situation.
Su Yan was taking action when he suddenly felt a strong wind coming from behind, which scared him and slapped him with a palm.
"Bang…"
Su Yan turned around and saw that what was coming was a whip shadow. Su Yan was caught off guard, so he shook him back.
After Su Yan stood firm, he looked over there, his eyes narrowed slightly, and anger couldn't help but surged.
But when he saw the visitor, he was stunned. The other party sat upright on a maroon horse, with beautiful eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and wearing a white long skirt. He turned out to be a woman.
"Who are you and why you attacked me?" But I still have to ask.
"The person who comes to get you," the woman's eyes were cold, and she felt a chill when she spoke.
"What a joke. I'm still so arrogant when I attack me for no reason."
Even if Su Yan has a good temper, he is still a little angry at this moment.
"I'm going to take you today, what can you do?"
The woman looked as usual, and then the whip in her hand suddenly shook in the air and rushed towards Su Yan like a spirit snake.
"snort,"
Su Yan snorted coldly, raised his palm and slapped at the whip shadow. The Yuanli rolled, causing a sound of sonic boom.
"Bang…"
Su Yan had used his strength to slap the opponent's whip away. At the same time, the power of Yuanli made the opponent's war horse neigh and raised its upper body high.
The woman also looked cold and was about to take action, but the messenger suddenly ran over and stopped her between them.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, stop it quickly,"
"Why are you here?"
The woman obviously knew the messenger, and when she saw him coming, she took back her long whip and asked with a frown.
"You misunderstood. He is not the person who makes trouble, but the distinguished guest invited by Lord Sun, General Su Yansu of Duyang City." Seeing the woman stopping, the messenger sighed softly and stepped forward to explain.
"Well, he is Su Yan, it turns out to be a little white man," the woman suddenly sneered when she heard the messenger's words, obviously a little disdainful.
Su Yan still had to speak, but after hearing the woman's comment, he suddenly became shocked and couldn't help but touch his face. Why did he become a little white-faced?
"Hey, it's okay if you attack me for no reason. You dare to hurt people like this. It's a bit too much,"
"General, don't be angry, this is also a misunderstanding," the messenger saw that Su Yan was a little angry and hurried forward to persuade him.
"Hmph, who made you meddle in other people's business? You deserve it?"
The woman said casually without any apology, then waved her hand, and a group of people rushed over from behind, arresting the troublemakers who fell to the ground one by one.
"drive…"
Su Yan was angry when he looked at the woman's ignorance and was about to scold him twice, but the woman didn't expect that the woman turned her head and turned her head away. The reins shook, and then left to stand on the original. Su Yan with a surprised expression.
"Who is she? She is so domineering. Do she think she is the princess of the dynasty?" Su Yan shivered in anger, and came back to his senses and asked at the messenger.
"This... she has this personality, please don't be surprised by the general," the messenger was also embarrassed and hurriedly smiled.
Su Yang and Zhao Dahui, who were standing beside him, couldn't help laughing when they saw Su Yan being defeated, but they didn't dare to laugh loudly in front of him. They could only hold back their smiles, but the corners of their eyes that kept twitching still revealed their emotions .
"Why are you laughing at? Let's go," Su Yan's mouth twitched, and he shouted in anger, then turned around and continued to move.
