Observing the changes in the situation ahead, Chen Yannian, who was in charge of the Chinese army like Ye Mingsheng, immediately reported: "Your Majesty, the enemy general's personal soldiers have been dispatched. As long as these people are defeated, the camp in the east of the city can be defeated!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Mingsheng nodded and immediately gave the order. The thousand soldiers left as a reserve team immediately entered the battle under the leadership of Chen Yannian. With the support of this new force, the Zhou army immediately launched another charge.
Under this wave of offensive, the troops entrenched in the Chinese army camp were at the end of their strength, and the army in Gongdu, which relied on a bloody courage to support them, was quickly overwhelmed without any suspense.
For a moment, the army was defeated like a mountain. The soldiers of Gongdu wailed and fled back for their lives. The Zhou army followed the trend and killed them. At this point, all the camp in the east of the city fell. Most of the three thousand soldiers of Gongdu were annihilated. Those who were lucky enough to survive In a short period of time, it was difficult to gather together and pose no threat to Ye Mingsheng's next actions.
"Congratulations, young master, for winning the first battle!" Seeing that the camp in the east of the city had been taken, Ye Tie, who was guarding the surroundings, immediately congratulated Ye Mingsheng:
Facing Ye Tie's congratulations, Ye Mingsheng, who was in a very good mood, nodded with a smile, and then led Ye Tie and others into the camp.
At this time, the Zhou army was taking a short rest in the camp. After Ye Mingsheng saw Chen Yannian, he immediately asked: "Master Chen, can our army still fight?"
For Ye Mingsheng and the Zhou army under his command, although they captured the east camp of the city where most of the Liujing Palace Army gathered, this was not the end, it was just a good beginning. Next, he had to clear out the The remaining Gongdu troops in the city finally bit off the hardest bone - Gongdu Royal City.
Therefore, we must use our troops quickly and quickly. While the Gongdu army has not yet reacted and their command system is in chaos, we must try to annihilate their effective forces as much as possible. There must be no delay.
Chen Yannian was also very clear about Ye Mingsheng's thoughts. He cupped his hands and said in a deep voice:
"No problem. I, Wang Xian, and Lin Huaiwu will divide our troops into three groups to clear out the remaining palace troops in the city, and strive to surround the royal city before dawn!"
"Very good!" Ye Mingsheng nodded with satisfaction.
After bidding farewell to Chen Yannian, Ye Mingsheng, who was in charge of supervising the army in the rear, welcomed Liu Shilin and his party who returned.
"Fortunately, you live up to your fate!"
Liu Shilin, who couldn't hide his pride when he saw Ye Mingsheng, said happily. At this time, he was covered in gunpowder smoke, and he was completely different from the elegant young master in Ye Mingsheng's impression.
Seeing Liu Shilin so happy, Ye Mingsheng did not dampen his interest and complimented him casually: "Brother Shilin should be the first to break the camp in the east of the city. But it is a pity that brother Shilin is in the Supervision Department. I'm afraid I can’t take credit for you!”
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I prefer to be a businessman than to become an official in the court!" Liu Shilin said nonchalantly:
After a few exchanges of business blows, Liu Shilin pulled a stocky and strong Gongdu military general in front of him and introduced him to Ye Mingsheng: "This is the General Pu Yongzhe I told Mr. Ye. This time we can It's done, but thanks to him being able to turn from darkness to light!"
Upon hearing what Liu Shilin said, Ye Mingsheng immediately understood who this Park Yongzhe was, and looked at him with interest. A quick glance at this person could see his pair of extremely eye-catching triangular eyes, which was very impressive. profound.
I have to say that this Pu Yongzhe is still very knowledgeable. Although he is higher than Ye Mingsheng in terms of official position, after all, he is the one who takes refuge, so his posture is still very low, and he takes the initiative to say hello in a not very standard Zhou Mandarin. :
"Hello, Mr. Ye!"
"Hello General Park!"
After greeting each other, Ye Mingsheng invited them to sit down, and then exchanged a few polite greetings. Seeing that the greetings were almost done, Ye Mingsheng pondered for a while, then looked at Pu Yongzhe and said:
"Our troops will launch a three-pronged attack. If nothing unexpected happens, we can clear out the enemies outside the royal city at dawn. However, the royal city is strong and guarded by the Red Tiger Army. It is really a hard nut to crack. I wonder what General Park can teach you." I?"
As soon as Liu Shilin said this, he also stared at Park Yongzhe, waiting for his answer.
Regarding this issue, Pu Yongzhe was very confident. He said without any hesitation: "Although the royal city is strong, Master Ye, you don't have to worry, this city will be broken without attacking!"
"Master Park, how do you say this?"
Ye Mingsheng was a little surprised when he heard this, narrowed his eyes slightly and asked:
"The camp in the east of the city has been breached by Mr. Ye. The defenders in the city can now gather no more than 1,500 people, and they are unable to counterattack. The fall of Liujing has become an established fact. The conflict between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the palace capital, It’s also inevitable.”
"Although Li Zaiyuan is old and fatuous, he is not unable to see this clearly. Based on my understanding of him, he will not choose to sit still and wait for death. He will definitely choose to break out!" Park Yongzhe analyzed very calmly:
Hearing Park Yongzhe's analysis, Ye Mingsheng was a little surprised. After thinking for a while, he continued to ask:
"Then from Mr. Park's point of view, if Li Zaiyuan breaks out, in which direction will he most likely break out?"
"I don't know about this..."
Regarding Ye Mingsheng's question, Pu Yongzhe, who was originally very confident, had a slightly embarrassed expression on his face, but he did not pretend to understand, but he hesitated and said:
"It is rumored that there is a secret underground passage leading outside the city in the palace capital. However, no one knows where this secret passage leads except the kings of the past dynasties."
When Ye Mingsheng heard this, his eyes flickered. After a while, Pu Yongzhe went down to rest. Only Liu Shilin and Ye Mingsheng were left in the room. Neither of them spoke first, and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a while.
Seeing that Ye Mingsheng had no intention of speaking first, Liu Shilin could only break the silence first, looking at Ye Mingsheng and saying word by word: "The higher-ups don't want to, what kind of clues will be brought down!"
