Chapter 230 Mr. Book Writer is Mr. Book Writer After All
"Your Majesty, the person leading the army is not the Prince of Guangping County. According to reports from spies, it seems that he is a newly recruited guard general from Ruyang!"
Hearing this, the scout bowed and replied.
"Isn't it Cheng Ruobing?"
Yang Guozhong couldn't help but let out a sigh.
It was said that when he accidentally learned that Cheng Ruobing, the king of Guangping County, had defected to Ruyang Li Mo, he was surprised for a while.
After all, Cheng Ruobing is the successor to former Tang Dynasty famous general Cheng Yaojin, so he must have some abilities.
If he leads troops there, he might be able to defeat the weak against the strong. After all, King Li Feng of Xiangyang has no strong generals under his command, which is quite satisfactory. But what does it mean if Ruyang sends an unknown general to fight now?
Could it be that this general is stronger than Cheng Ruobing?
"Then is there any other news from Li Mo?"
After thinking for a moment, Yang Guozhong asked again.
"Your Majesty, there has been no movement in Ruyang since the army left the city. Everything is as usual, except that Ruyang Pass looks much more heavily guarded than before."
"Ruyang Pass? Brother Huang, I understand!"
At this moment, Yang Guoxiao in the main hall suddenly realized something and said hurriedly.
Since the founding of Jiannan, Yang Guoxiao has gotten rid of his identity as the leader of Tianyin Sect and has become the one-word king of the Southern Kingdom. His status is only a little lower than Yang Guozhong.
"Oh? Emperor brother, come and listen!"
Yang Guozhong couldn't help but look at Yang Guoxiao.
"Brother Imperial, this Li Mo should be trying to protect Ruyang, and rushing to aid Nanyang is just a show-off."
Standing up, Yang Guoxiao waved his hand to indicate to the scouts that they could retreat.
"Protect Ruyang?"
Yang Guozhong's expression changed, and he instantly understood what Yang Guoxiao meant.
Ruyang is easy to defend but difficult to attack, as we all know!
If Ruyang's 30,000-strong army sticks to Ruyang Pass, Li Feng's 70,000-strong army may not be able to capture Ruyang easily, but once Li Mo's army leaves Ruyang, it will be another matter.
"I have to say that a book writer is a book writer, and he will never become a big deal! If Nanyang, Pingyang and Luoyang are lost, what can we do if we can keep Ruyang?
Once Li Feng cuts off the grain route to Ruyang, he can trap Li Mo to death in Ruyang alive."
After coming back to his senses, Yang Guozhong shook his head slightly and said.
"Brother Emperor, that's exactly what happened. I have to say that Li Feng's strategy was quite clever. He defeated Ruyang directly. We in the Southern Kingdom will have to be careful about this person in the future."
"Hmph! It's just Li Feng, so what if we capture Ruyang?
Anyone can easily win against an opponent like Li Mo."
"That's right, even if Li Feng annexes Li Mo's territory, he can't be a match for my 300,000-sword southern army!"
"Um!"
.......
In fact, after receiving the news that King Xiangyang and Li Mo were going to war, not only Yang Guozhong of the Southern Kingdom thought so, but also Anlu Mountain in Chang'an, Li Xuan, the King of Liang, and Shi Siming of the Great Zhou Dynasty all expressed the same emotion.
A book writer is a book writer after all, he cannot create a climate, there is no big picture!
It is understandable that the King of Xiangyang took advantage of him.
at the same time,
Xiangyang, Wangfu,
After listening to the spy's report, Li Feng frowned.
"What? Ten thousand troops?"
"Yes, Lord! At the same time, Ruyang also released news that these 10,000 troops have brought Master Li Juan and Master Wang. If our Xiangyang army dares to step into Nanyang, they will directly kill Master Li."
In front of the battle."
The secret agent spoke again.
"Threatening me?"
Li Feng's face turned cold instantly.
In fact, he had already predicted the result of Li Juan's mission to Ruyang, so he had no hope that Li Juan could directly persuade Li Mo to attach himself to Xiangyang.
All he wanted was to lure Li Mo's 30,000 troops out of Ruyang.
The results are so good now,
Li Mo not only didn't follow the routine and captured his envoy, but only 10,000 troops came out without telling him. How could he not be angry?
In this way, there are still 20,000 troops in Ruyang, and it may take a lot of effort for them to hold on to Ruyang.
"Then who is the leading general in Ruyang?"
After a pause, Li Feng asked again.
"Lord, I have never heard of this general and rarely appears in Ruyang. He should be a newly recruited general. It seems that the Lord of Ruyang wants to protect Ruyang."
The secret agent whispered.
"Protect Ruyang? Can he protect it? Send an order and order General Qi Xuan to kill all of Ruyang's 10,000 troops in Nanyang. At that time, we will surround Ruyang and defeat the tortoise!"
With a cold snort, Li Feng gave the order almost without thinking.
Qi Xuan is the number one general under his command, and he has peak sixth-grade strength. Taking down Ruyang's 10,000-strong army will definitely not be a problem.
"Lord, that brother-in-law..."
At this moment, Li Yuan, the eldest of the five kings of the Li family, hurriedly stood up after hearing the military order.
Now his brother is still in the hands of Li Mo's 10,000-strong army.
If the war started directly, wouldn't Li Juan... If he had known this, he should not have sent his younger brother to Ruyang as an envoy.
"Master Li, this matter is of great importance. General Qi Xuan will definitely find a way to rescue my brother. But if he really can't be rescued, then he will have to finally wipe out Ruyang to avenge his brother! I, the Gale Kingdom, will always remember my brother's contribution."
Li Feng narrowed his eyes and stared at Li Yuan.
Capturing Ruyang involves a major matter of founding the country. How could we give up so easily just because of Li Juan?
"Ah...this..."
Being stared at by Li Feng, Li Yuan and the other three brothers suddenly felt a chill in their backs.
That look in his eyes...actually, he had no intention of saving Li Juan at all.
After all, Li Juan is also his brother, so why...is it that once he becomes the emperor, the last bit of racial affection will be gone?
In vain, they immediately took refuge in Li Feng, thinking that Li Feng was a member of the Li clan and would protect them.
Now it seems that Li Feng's behavior is not even comparable to that of Li Mo.
"Okay, it's settled! Send the order!"
Before Li Yuan could speak again, Li Feng flicked his sleeves and said without hesitation.
"yes!"
.........
Time flies and half a day passes in the blink of an eye.
The sun sets,
Nanyang, county government,
County Magistrate Zhang Ze was pacing back and forth in the lobby like an ant on a hot pot, unable to stop at all.
"What should I do? What should I do? Why did my lord only send an army of 10,000 troops? How can these 10,000 troops be the opponent of King Xiangyang's 70,000 troops?"
He muttered to himself, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Ever since he learned that King Xiangyang's 70,000-strong army was approaching Nanyang, he was so frightened that he didn't know what to do.
There are no troops stationed here in Nanyang. Once an army of 70,000 besieges the city, neither the people nor the merchants will be able to escape.
Later, I finally got the news that reinforcements were sent from Ruyang, and I became even more anxious.
Zhang Ze really didn't understand why his lord would send a military commander whose name he had never heard of. When he met with Li Mo that day, there were obviously many masters in the hall.
"Is it true that the lord just wants to protect Ruyang, as rumored by the outside world?"
Talking to himself, Zhang Ze sighed deeply but quickly shook his head.
"No! No! How could it be possible that the lord, with top talents like Master Zeng and Dan Qiusheng beside him, doesn't know the importance of Nanyang? There must be something else that he didn't expect."
