Chapter 343: Subduing the enemy without fighting 1
"you?!"
Qing Lei raised her hand and was about to scratch Huang Ying's ear, but she still held back, retracted her hand, turned around and walked outside.
Looking at her hurried away figure, Huang Ying couldn't help but sigh, and sat back down to drink tea.
He reached out and slowly picked up the brocade silk that he had just thrown to Yi Lingshang, and smiled bitterly. Why didn't he take a second look at it at that time?
Why don't you take a look at what's written on it?
'The Queen of Hades is critically ill, the Emperor of Hades abandoned his army and ignored him, and the enemy's morale was low.'
This is the original text, and Huang Ying only said half of it just now.

Outside Ye City, the situation is very urgent. As the second prince of Yi Kingdom, Yi Lingshang has led Dai Jun to surround the city gate.
In Ye City, Ming Yi was in charge of everything. Hearing the news from the defenders, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in anger.
"You want to go?"
Cai'er had just woken up and was exhausted, but she was worried about her husband.
"Well, I am the only one left to control the situation at this moment. Brother Huang did not explain the reason for his departure. Even if he explained the reason to the three armies, it will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the generals in the army. It was Brother Huang who wanted to step down in the first place.
In the Pingyi Kingdom, the generals and soldiers abandon their wives and come to the battlefield, and whether family affairs or state affairs are more important, the emperor brother will not be unaware of them."
Mingyi sighed, not blaming him. If he heard that something happened to Cai'er in the Imperial Capital, he would do the same without hesitation.
"Okay, then I'll go too and face it together!"
Cai'er smiled, stood up from her feet, and walked out without waiting for Ming Yi's permission.
There was no time to delay, so Mingyi had no choice but to acquiesce.
It was already the end of April, but it was unexpectedly cold in spring in Yecheng. As soon as they went up to the city tower, there was a refreshing chill. Cai'er and Mingyi walked up side by side, looking down at the army below the city.
At this moment, Yi Lingshang was wearing a silver mask and riding on a similarly silver horse. He was holding a spear in his hand and giving orders to the three armies.
But I could only hear the three armies howling in the same place, but no movement was seen.
The underworld army was already ready to attack, just waiting for the order from underworld wing.
However, when Mingyi called for bows and arrows and gave an order to open the city gate, the Yiguo army suddenly turned around and walked back.
"what the hell?!"
Mingyi has experienced hundreds of battles, but this is the first time for him to deal with the recent situation.
Fighting in ancient times was different from modern times. In ancient times, people were influenced by the concept of "ritual". Generally, the generals of the two armies fought against each other first. When the fight was in full swing, their soldiers then fought against each other.
In a situation like today's siege of a city, the attacker usually tries to persuade them to surrender first, and then attacks the city if they fail to do so.
As the saying goes, a war never tires of deceit.
Today, there are too few people who can fight according to the "etiquette".
Unless he is a fool!
The Ming Army opened the city gate and chased out with the deputy general, but they were called back by Ming Yi halfway.
"Why don't you keep chasing?"
Cai'er was a little confused. She didn't understand the matter of fighting, but this was the first time she had seen the enemy retreat before fighting.
"I'm afraid that was Yi Lingshang's trick. He deliberately wanted to lure our army out, and then fell into his ambush!"
Ming Yi's eyebrows were deeply knitted. Even though he said this, he felt quite strange in his heart.
"It seems we can't go back to the inn tonight. I have a hunch that Yi Lingshang will come again."
With a determined look, Ming Yi took Cai'er's hand and looked in the other direction of the tower.
"Did you see it? It's a green place where birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. That's the legendary pure land of Yi Kingdom. When we finish this battle, no matter what the outcome is, I will take you there."
Narrowing his eyes together, Ming Yi smiled and looked back at Cai'er seriously.
