Liaodong Army camp.
"What do you think His Highness, Prince Yan, thought about?"
Wei Gong and a group of foreign barbarian leaders gathered together. Seeing that there was no one around, he asked in a low voice.
In the past few days, the Liaodong Allied Forces were harassed by the Wei Army and suffered terribly.
Although the losses were not large, morale in the army was low and people were panicked.
This also made Wei Gong and others extremely confused.
It is obvious that the Wei army can be surrounded in the city and dragged to death.
Why did Gongsun Yuan order the troops to retreat and give the Wei army the opportunity to harass them like this?
"Who knows?"
Mayu, the king of Buyeo Kingdom, couldn't help but sigh.
Mingluo, the king of Dongyi Kingdom, couldn't hold his breath and said,
"We might as well ask His Highness King Yan to find out clearly. We can't continue to be so passive, right?"
When he spoke like this, many people agreed.
"yes!"
"Walk!"
"Let's go together!"
At the suggestion of King Mingluo of Dongyi Kingdom, a group of foreign leaders got up and went to Gongsun Yuan's camp.
Gongsun Yuan was originally upset because of the loss of Xiangping City.
At this time, when I heard that Wei Gong and others were coming, I felt even more headache.
But he couldn't avoid it, so he could only let Wei Gong and the others in.
"I have met His Highness King Yan!"
As soon as everyone had saluted, King Mingluo couldn't wait to say,
"Your Highness King Yan, why should we withdraw our troops and give the Wei army the opportunity to harass us all the time?"
"Yes, wouldn't it be nice to block them in that new city?"
"I hope His Highness King Yan will make it clear!"
Faced with numerous inquiries from everyone, Gongsun Yuan hesitated for a moment and finally decided to tell the whole story.
"To tell you the truth, Xiangping City...is lost!"
As soon as these words came out, the foreign leaders present were all shocked!
"Xiangping City...how could it be lost?"
"Is there a rebellion?"
Gongsun Yuan shook his head and said with a bitter smile,
"It was captured by the Wei army. I haven't found out how exactly it was captured!"
Everyone was stunned again.
The main force of the Wei army was in the Liaodong vassal state. How did they arrive at Xiangping?
After being surprised, other thoughts suddenly came into their minds.
Although these foreigners all live in Liaodong, they still understand the situation in the Central Plains quite well.
When the Han Dynasty was strong in the early years, they often sent people to worship.
It was only the Yellow Turban Rebellion that led to the decline of the Han Dynasty's national power that these foreign barbarians had the courage to resist.
Now that the Wei State has replaced the Han Dynasty, its national power is booming.
Even Gongsun Yuan's lair was captured, so how could they be the opponents of Wei!
Should I consider my options?
All the foreign leaders had ulterior motives, and for a while the camp fell into a dead silence.
Gongsun Yuan was aware of this instinctively, frowned, and forced himself to smile calmly,
"Don't panic, I already have a way to deal with it."
"In a few days, we can retake Xiangping!"
After hearing what he said, everyone stopped saying anything and stood up to leave.
After they left, Gongsun Yuan's face turned gloomy and he said to Sun Zong beside him,
"Does the military advisor have a good plan to solve the current predicament?"
Sun Zong frowned and thought for a long time before slowly saying,
"Our army has twice the strength of the Wei army. It is better to leave half of the troops and continue the stalemate with the Wei army."
"The other half of the troops, rush to Xiangping quickly!"
It is a taboo for military strategists to choose to divide their forces when they have superior strength.
But the situation was so urgent that Gongsun Yuan really had no choice but to nod and say,
"So good!"
After some discussion, Gongsun Yuan decided to take his people back to Xiangping in person and let Bei Yan take charge here on his behalf.
After it was taken care of, he breathed a sigh of relief.
That night.
The Wei army did not harass the Liaodong Allied Forces, which also gave the camp of the Liaodong Allied Forces a rare quiet moment.
As the night got darker and darker, even the soldiers on guard were dozing off when they saw a few dark things suddenly floating in the distant night sky.
When it floated closer, it was discovered that it was Wei Jun's hot air balloon.
Dozens of densely packed hot air balloons followed the direction of the wind and arrived over the camp of the Liaodong Allied Forces.
If someone raised his head, he would definitely be able to see it.
But the soldiers of the Liaodong Allied Forces never expected that the Wei army would attack from the sky.
Seeing that they had reached the predetermined position, the Wei soldiers did not hesitate and began to throw the clay pots downwards as much as they wanted.
These clay pots are called kerosene bombs, and they are weapons developed by craftsmen's workshops.
Everything inside is black oil.
After being ignited, it fell into the camp of the Liaodong Allied Forces and exploded in an instant, igniting a large area of the camp.
Densely packed clay pots almost covered the entire camp.
But in the blink of an eye, the camp of the Liaodong Allied Forces was plunged into a sea of fire!
Gongsun Yuan, who was sleeping, was awakened by the huge movement and jumped up quickly.
When he walked out of the camp, what he saw was an extremely shocking scene.
The entire camp was engulfed in fire, and countless soldiers who were ignited into pyromen were screaming and running back and forth.
"What the hell is going on?"
Gongsun Yuan was dumbfounded.
Even if the Wei army attacks, it won't set the entire camp on fire, right?
Before he could react, Bei Yan and others ran over in a panic.
"Your Highness King Yan, something bad has happened. Wei Jun...Wei Jun is coming to kill us!"
Gongsun Yuan was stunned for a moment and listened carefully. As expected, he could faintly hear shouts of killing.
His heart immediately sank, knowing that he would definitely lose tonight!
"Bei Yan, Yang Zuo, hurry up and reorganize your troops. Let's retreat!"
"okay!"
The two responded and left in a hurry.
However, as soon as the two of them left, Gongsun Yuan on the back ordered the soldiers around him,
"Pack your bags quickly, let's go!"
"Ah? Your Highness, can't we wait for the two generals?"
The commander of the soldiers asked stupidly.
"What a fart!"
As far as the current situation is concerned, if you stay for a while, it will be a bit more dangerous.
Gongsun Yuan is not that stupid!
Bei Yan and Yang Zuo on the other side had no idea that they had been betrayed by Gongsun Yuan!
The two returned to the camp and tried to reorganize their troops.
However, at this moment, Wei Jun came over and killed him!
"The thief will die!"
Hearing a sharp shout, Guanqiu Jian leaped on his horse with his sword drawn, and charged towards him to kill him!
Yang Zuo was startled and quickly raised his weapon to resist.
It's just that Guan Qiujian's attack was not only powerful and heavy, but also extremely fast!
A cold light flashed across Yang Zuo's neck, and he lost consciousness instantly!
Seeing his head separated on the spot, Bei Yan had no intention of avenging him, but was frightened to death.
Just as he was about to retreat, he heard another angry shout,
"The thief... will leave!"
Deng Ai clenched his spear and stabbed him, hitting Beiyan's armor hard.
Bei Yan only felt a huge force coming from him and was knocked away!
When he came to his senses, he was captured alive by Wei soldiers!
