The next day, a few people rushed back to Shuofang.
As soon as Yun Zheng returned to Shuofang, he received news from Du Guiyuan. Another group of the four groups sent by Yun Zheng had returned!
He was fine, but he was tired and sleepy, so he needed to rest for a while.
To Yunzheng, these eight people are all great contributors, and it doesn’t matter how much they rest!
It should!
Now, only the last group of people is left!
If that group of people came back safely, the battle in Death Valley would be truly perfect.
However, Yun Zheng couldn't find that group of people right now.
Beihuan is likely to start risking his life, and he must be prepared.
Although the victory in Death Valley can no longer be replicated, casualties must be reduced as much as possible.
They only have so much wealth, they can't let it all go to waste.
In the next few days, Yunzheng became busy again.
During this period, the last group of people also came back.
This also means that Yunzheng severely damaged tens of thousands of people in Beihuan with zero casualties.
Unfortunately, the specific details of this battle cannot be announced to the public.
Otherwise, this glorious battle will surely go down in history and become a miracle in the history of war.
But even if the details cannot be announced to the public, Yunzheng and the others are very happy.
After all, they had zero casualties!
Welcoming the New Year with such a great victory makes the New Year even more festive.
Three days before the end of the new year, Yunzheng returned to his house from Beidaying and followed his family members to make dumplings at home.
There were already many people in his house, and including the guards and servants, there were almost eighty people.
With so many people celebrating the New Year together, we need to make more dumplings.
However, Yun Zheng's hands are indeed a bit clumsy.
The dumplings he made looked nondescript.
Fortunately, there are two cripples like Shen Luoyan and Zhang Xu as foils, so his dumplings are not the worst.
Compared with them, Ye Zi is more ingenious.
The dumplings she made were well-proportioned in size and looked good.
Even while talking to them, Ye Zi's hands didn't stop.
Looking at Ye Zi's flexible hands, Yunzheng couldn't help but have an evil thought flashing through his mind.
dumpling?
sister in law?
On New Year's Eve, eat dumplings...
"What other random things are you thinking about in your head?"
Shen Luoyan slapped the dumpling wrapper directly on Yunzheng's face.
Yunzheng took off the dumpling wrapper on his face and said seriously: "I'm thinking about important events in the army!"
"Bah! It's weird if I believe you!"
Shen Luoyan glared at Yunzheng fiercely, "You were staring at my sister-in-law's hand just now, and you were smiling so obscenely that I'm embarrassed to call you that!"
"Yeah, I saw it too!" Zhang Xu immediately nodded in agreement.
Ye Zi's pretty face turned red and she glared at the two of them in shame, "You can make trouble as long as you want, but don't take me with you!"
"You have all these random things in your mind all day long!" Yun Zheng bit back at the two of them, "I am learning my sister-in-law's craftsmanship, and I wish I could have as flexible hands as my sister-in-law's... "
Listening to Yunzheng's words, Shen Luoyan and Zhang Xu looked disbelieving at the same time.
Yun Zheng smiled so obscenely just now, he definitely didn't mean anything good!
Just when Shen Luoyan was about to carry out a just trial against Yunzheng, a rapid and loud voice suddenly came from outside.
"Quick, take us to see His Highness! Hurry, the military situation is urgent!"
Listening to this voice, Ye Zi's hands trembled, and the dumplings that were about to be made suddenly fell down.
Military emergency!
Something must have happened over there in Beihuan!
On their first New Year's Eve in Shuobei, they might not be able to have a reunion dinner.
Under the leadership of the guards in the mansion, Yu Shizhong hurried in with a messenger.
"See you, my lord!"
When the messenger saw Yun Zheng, he quickly saluted.
Yun Zheng waved his hand and quickly stepped forward, "Don't do these false courtesy, tell me, what's the military situation?"
The messenger immediately took out a token and said seriously: "Beihuan's 150,000 troops crossed the Baishui River shoal at dawn yesterday and raided our army guarding the shoal. Now the troops are divided into three groups and surround the Suining Guard! The general has orders, all the troops in Shuobei are on standby at any time! The generals in charge of each division should return to camp immediately! Anyone who dares to neglect will be killed!"
After listening to the messenger's words, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Beihuan really attacked!
Directly attacked the defenders at the front of Beiyuan!
An army of 150,000 people surrounded Suining Guard!
An army of 150,000!
Where did Beihuan come from so many troops?
"Yunzheng takes the order!"
Yunzheng quickly took the order and immediately asked the messenger sternly: "How is Beihuan's 150,000-strong army deployed? What are the casualties at the front of our army?"
The messenger immediately replied: "More than half of my 30,000 troops defending Beiyuan Shoal were lost in battle, and Beihuan also suffered heavy casualties..."
The casualties paid by Beihuan were only a lot more than those of Daqian.
However, Beihuan's troops were numerous and powerful, and all of them were brave and unafraid of death. Before the reinforcements from Suining Guard and Jing'an Guard arrived, the 30,000 people were defeated and defeated.
Afterwards, reinforcements from the Suining Guard and the Jing'an Guard arrived, trying to regain control of the Beiyuan Ford, and started a fierce battle with the Beihuan cavalry in the Beiyuan.
However, Beihuan's army was too brave, and Beihuan's follow-up reinforcements came through Beiyuan Shoal in a steady stream, and finally successfully defeated the two reinforcements.
In the end, the two lines of reinforcements totaled 40,000 troops. After losing more than half, they were forced to withdraw to the Suining Guards for defense.
Now, Beihuan's army defended in three directions.
Two armies were stationed on the east and south sides of Suining Guard, and another army was stationed twenty miles northwest of Jing'an Guard.
The three armies directly cut off the connection between Suining Guard and other ministries, turning Suining Guard into an isolated city.
"Garrison?"
Yun Zheng frowned, "The Beihuan army didn't attack in other directions?"
"No!"
The messenger replied: "Beihuan's three armies are all camping in place and holding on!"
Yun Zheng's brows furrowed even more, and he asked again: "Where is General Wei? How did he arrange it?"
The messenger shook his head and said: "The younger one is only responsible for delivering orders, and I don't know the specific situation."
"What about Qin Qihu? Is he okay?" Yun Zheng asked again.
The messenger replied: "I heard that General Qin was slightly injured and has led his troops to retreat to Suining Guards."
"That's good! Go back and recover first!"
Yun Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief and immediately called to Shen Luoyan, "Quick, go to Beida Camp!"
With that said, Yunzheng walked out quickly.
Shen Luoyan didn't even bother to wash his hands and ran out quickly.
"Let me go and have a look too!"
Miaoyin sighed softly and said to Ye Zi: "I leave the affairs of the house to you!"
"Um!"
Ye Zi suppressed the panic in her heart and nodded gently.
Although she is not as knowledgeable about marching and fighting as Yun Zheng, some clues can be seen from the layout of the Beihuan Third Army.
Especially Beihuan's army deployed on the south side of Suining Guard can attack Shuofang at any time!
This year is definitely not going to be a good time at the end of the year!
Zhang Xu shrank his neck and looked at Ye Zi with a sad face, "Sister-in-law, will our Shuofang become Beihuan's next target?"
"What are you afraid of?"
Mingyue glared at Zhang Xu angrily, "Even if Beihuan comes, no one will ask you to go to the battlefield! Look at how cowardly you are, you are still thinking about making achievements all day long!"
"I……"
Zhang Xu choked slightly, then immediately rubbed his neck and said, "Who said I'm afraid? I...I'm worried about our workshops! Yes, I'm worried about the workshops!"
Mingyue was too lazy to pay attention to him and looked at the door worriedly...
