Just when Emperor Liang adopted the plan to surround Yanzhou without attacking, the news that Ling Ning defeated Huang Yuanzhang's army spread like a hurricane throughout the world.
Everyone thought that Ling Ning would definitely die. After all, how could one state compete with the power of a country?
Although there are 100,000 Beiyou troops, they are guarding four passes. Each pass has limited available troops. How can they stop the mighty imperial army?
Therefore, the fall of Yanzhou is only a matter of time.
It depends on how long Ling Ning can hold on.
Some people who were watching the joke even set up stalls in the gambling houses, with options of ten days, twenty days, and thirty days.
But now, Ling Ning slapped those who were laughing hard, kicked them down, and peed on them, especially on their faces.
Ling Ning only needed ten days to defeat Huang Yuanzhang's army instead of being destroyed.
It is said that the total casualties of Huang Yuanzhang's twenty-five troops exceeded half!
The joke didn't work, and those who saw the joke started talking about Huang Yuanzhang, which almost broke Huang Yuanzhang's spine.
"What a bullshit Hundred-Warlord, what a veteran of hundreds of battles, who can't even beat an eighteen-year-old kid."
"Hundred Warlords should die to apologize!"
"I heard that Bai Zhanhou was flanked twice, and they were exactly the same twice!"
"The Lord Bai Zhan has no butt... He lost it twice..."
"The Lord Bai Zhan still has the honor to live, why don't you die to apologize?"
"If Bai Zhanhou also died in Ling Ning's hands, then half of the four great princes in Liang would have died in his hands. Hey, this Ling Ning is really not simple."
"Not only is it not simple, but now it seems that it is very powerful. Don't forget, the person who died in Ling Ning's hands was also a prince."
"..."
There are countless comments like this.
Of course, this is all talk in the market.
The dignitaries are curious about where Ling Ning's reinforcements are coming from, but there is no news at all. This is the most terrifying thing.
Dachen Kingdom to the north of Cangchen Pass.
Chen Huang also learned the news.
Chen Huang lamented: "After Huang Yuanzhang's defeat, Ling Ning has already dispatched 30,000 troops to support Cangchen Pass. I think it is no longer possible for the fisherman to make a profit."
He dispatched 80,000 soldiers and horses to the Cangchen Pass, just to make a profit from the competition between the crane and the clam, but it seems impossible now.
Later, Emperor Chen issued an order: "Send an order to Tuoba Mountain to stop attacking Cangchen Pass and retreat to Beiyuan Fortress."
Tuoba Shan, the famous and powerful general of the Chen Kingdom, was the commander-in-chief of the army that attacked Cangchen Pass this time. This person had no defeat in Da Chen's country, but was defeated steadily by Ling Xingshuang.
I thought I could avenge my shame this time, but now it seems I have no chance.
As for Beiyuan Fortress, it is a fortress eighty miles north of Cangchen Pass. The terrain there is higher, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is the first frontier fortress in the south of Dachen Kingdom, guarding Daliang.
"Father, if Ling Ning wins this time, he is a wild horse and must take revenge on Daliang. I think I can help Ling Ning." At this moment, a cold female voice sounded in the hall.
I saw a woman with a cold temperament and beautiful appearance, like an iceberg fairy standing in the hall.
Judging from the title, we know that this girl is the daughter of Emperor Chen and the current princess of the Chen Kingdom.
Her name was Yelu Jingyi, Emperor Chen's favorite daughter, and she was even more favored than all his children.
The people of Dachen Kingdom often say that if Yelu Jingyi is a boy, he must be a prince.
Others say that it was because Yelu Jingyi was born as a girl and Emperor Chen was unwilling to accept it that he delayed establishing the crown prince position.
After hearing his daughter's suggestion, Chen Huang became interested and said with a smile, "Do you have any clever ideas in mind?"
Yelu Jingyi nodded.
…
At this time, Ling Ning had returned to Yanzhou City.
There are more than 60,000 troops in Lishuiguan and a large number of wounded soldiers. Even if Huang Yuanzhang makes a comeback, he can rest easy.
There are 16,000 people in Guangyu Pass and Heiya Pass each, so there won't be any problem.
There are nearly 60,000 people in Cangchen Pass, which is enough to resist the attack of Da Chen State, and judging from the current situation, Da Chen State will retreat soon.
With the four levels stable, Ling Ning naturally returned to Yanzhou City to take charge.
During this period of time, Ling Ning was extremely busy and was finally able to take a rest.
That night, when Ling Ning returned to the palace, she favored her concubines Ye Youran and Zhou Xuerou. Although the two women were good sisters, they were still shy about serving Ling Ning together.
So Ling Ning had to work hard. After finishing this room, go to another room.
So much so that Ling Ning complained about who was serving whom.
But for the sake of spreading the branches and the system rewards, Ling Ning didn't feel it was hard.
He was too busy before and had no time to work hard. Now that he is free, he must branch out as soon as possible. He urgently needs the help of the system treasure chest. Ling Ning wants to make progress too much.
While Ling Ning was lingering over Ye Youran and Zhou Xuerou, Yang Huanhuan was hiding in the dark, gnashing her teeth with hatred.
She was obviously the second person to be favored, so why was she only favored once and then left alone?
She can do everything Zhou Xuerou can do, and she can also do what Zhou Xuerou can't do.
I am no worse than Zhou Xuerou, and is Zhou Xuerou herself sexy?
So Yang Huanhuan was very jealous.
Jealousy makes people distorted. In addition, Yang Huanhuan hated Ling Ning and came to the Ling family with a purpose. Therefore, under such circumstances, Yang Huanhuan was unwilling to wait any longer.
If you can't get something, destroy it.
The next morning, Yang Huanhuan went shopping on the pretext of shopping and came back with a lot of things.
Ling Ning slept until three o'clock in the morning, then practiced the Ling family's marksmanship in the yard.
Mr. Sun watched from the sidelines, seeing Ling Ning's figure becoming more and more like Ling Xingshuang. Mr. Sun couldn't help but moisten the corners of his eyes, and said in his heart: Master, don't worry, the young master has grown up and is fully capable of handling all difficulties on his own. Please rest assured that your soul is in heaven.
At this time, Ling Ning drew up his weapons and raised his spear.
Ling Ning is still not satisfied with his marksmanship. His current martial arts can only be regarded as average in the world.
It is no problem to kill the enemy normally, but if you encounter an expert, you will only lose.
This world is a world of low martial arts. There is no such thing as breaking mountains with one sword or opening rivers with one sword. But there are also powerful masters who can kill everyone. For example, if a master of marksmanship has a long spear in his hand, it will be difficult for a dozen or twenty people to get close to him.
Although Ling Ning has an army of hundreds of thousands, he lacks the protection of experts around him. Now he can only make up for it with numbers, so there are guards inside and outside the palace.
But this is not safe.
"Mr. Sun, let's find out if there are any masters with strong martial arts skills." Ling Ning said.
Mr. Sun immediately sent a hot towel and said at the same time: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will arrange for someone to inquire about this matter immediately. By the way, Your Majesty, Yang Huanhuan left the palace early this morning and went to Caiyifang."
"It is now confirmed that the person who colluded with Yang Huanhuan is named Duan Feng, and it was he who opened Caiyi Fang."
"As for Duan Feng's origin, we haven't found out yet."
Ling Ning nodded and asked: "Yang Huanhuan was a reward from Emperor Liang. There is a high chance that she is a chess piece planted by Emperor Liang. Now that you have determined that there is something wrong with Duan Feng, instruct Zhang Quan to capture this person. By the way. , Capture them secretly, don’t scare off the enemy.”
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty." Mr. Sun immediately went to make arrangements.
Ling Ning went to the study room, where Jia Huaiying and Pang Ju were already waiting.
