Qilu, Licheng
The Tongren Inn, which used to be bustling with business and filled with guests, was now not only deserted, but also blocked by hundreds of heavily armed Qi army soldiers...
Unless you have special permission, these Qi army soldiers will not allow you to enter the inn at all. They have received orders to shoot and kill anyone who dares to break into the inn!
In addition to being so strict on the outside, there are also almost three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry inside the inn. They try their best to prevent accidents!
The reason why Tongren Inn has undergone such a huge change is entirely because of an assassination that happened here more than half a month ago!
At this time, in a room deep in the inn, an old doctor with white hair and beard, with the help of three apprentices, examined the wounds of the young man sitting on the bed in front of him. The young man looked pale at this time. , he couldn't hide the feeling of sickness and weakness all over his body, and there was a thick layer of gauze wrapped around the vital parts of his chest, telling the story of the horror he had encountered.
Standing next to the young man and the old doctor was a middle-aged man wearing an official robe. He was staring at the young man and the old doctor meticulously. The corner of his eye kept moving towards the young man, as if he was It was as if he wanted to find out some secret from this young man.
After about a cup of tea, the old doctor checked the young man’s wound, applied a new layer of medicine and said to the young man with a smile:
"Mr. Su, your injury is basically safe, but you can continue to cultivate well. Remember not to drink alcohol or eat spicy food. I will leave you some medicine for internal and external use. Remember to take medicine on time. Change dressing······················"
After hearing the doctor's instructions, Su Yi finally felt relieved with a sigh of relief in her heart. She bowed deeply to the old doctor in front of her and said sincerely:
"Thank you very much, doctor, for saving your life. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. Su will definitely repay you in the future!"
"Mr. Su, you are serious. I am a doctor and it is my duty to treat illnesses and save people!"
Yu Rui stroked his white beard and said with a smile, he is the most famous trauma doctor in Qilu. Because he is old, he no longer practices medicine. The affairs of the medical clinic are also left to a few apprentices to take care of, but for most of the month Previously, the government personally invited him out to treat the deputy director of the Foreign Affairs Department from Youyan.
When he first came, even though he was experienced, he was shocked by Su Yi's injuries. He had been stabbed thirteen times and his life was on the line. But fortunately, he came quickly enough, and Except for the one on the chest that was the most dangerous, the other twelve knives were not fatal. In the end, with his full treatment, Director Su was finally rescued from the hands of the Lord of Hell.
Listening to the conversation between Yu Rui and Su Yi, the official standing behind them coughed slightly. Seeing that this man was mature, Yu Rui immediately took his apprentice and left with a very sensible farewell. Although he He didn’t know the inside story of this, but his decades of experience told him that the things involved must be of great importance, and he was not something that a doctor could participate in. It was enough for him as a doctor to treat illnesses and save people, and he was not involved in other matters at all. Not interested in···················
After Yu Rui left, Su Yi said lightly with a sneer on her face:
"Master Liu, if my guess is correct, our army should have captured Jiyu by now, right?"
Although Su Yi's words were very plain, Liu Hui's words were full of pride and ridicule. However, facing Su Yi's ridicule, he had no way to reply, because Su Yi said It's a fact. The Fengwu Army has indeed captured Jiyu.
Feeling the anger in Liu Hui's eyes, Su Yi snorted with disdain, and then said lightly:
"If you want to seek peace, you must have an attitude of seeking peace. Don't treat yourself like an uncle. No one will spoil you!"
Su Yi's sharp words undoubtedly made Liu Hui even more furious. He looked at Su Yi and said bitterly:
"Su, don't be too arrogant! You are in Licheng now, not in Yijing, so don't be too arrogant!"
As soon as these words came out, a disdainful smile appeared on Su Yi's face. He stood up, walked to Liu Hui and said with a half-smile:
"I've died once before, so what should I be afraid of?"
At this point, he raised his finger and pointed at Liu Hui's face and said disdainfully:
"I'm so arrogant today! You bitch, you're so smart, why don't you kill me?"
"Liu Hui, don't believe it. If I, Su Yi, die in Licheng today, your whole family will be buried with me!"
"you·············"
Liu Hui trembled all over as soon as he said these words. He was so angry that he immediately wanted to order the sergeant around him to chop Su Yi to death. However, the remaining reason in his heart told him that what Su Yi said was true. Sometimes when it is difficult to get off the tiger, a man quickly walked into the room, acted as a peacemaker and pulled the two apart and said:
"Everyone has something to say! It's better to make enemies than to dissolve them!"
Seeing that Sun Jing'an's appearance allowed him to step down, Liu Hui immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but he still said very forcefully and viciously:
"Master Sun, let me give you some face! You don't have the same experience as this bold maniac."
After speaking, Liu Hui turned around and left. Liu Hui's little care could not escape Su Yi's eyes. Su Yi, who was still upset, said to Liu Hui's back:
"Master Liu, I, Su Yi, am here. If you want my life that day, come and take it!"
Facing Su Yi's provocation, Liu Hui pretended not to hear and walked out of the inn. Seeing this scene, Su Yi felt extremely happy. He, Su Yi, was a scholar and shouldn't be as aggressive and aggressive as a street gangster, but this time He had been holding his breath for a long time!
This Liu Hui was Cao Changping's confidant, and he was also sent by Cao Changping to monitor him. During the more than half a month he was recuperating in the Tongren Inn, this Liu Hui always put on a condescending air and treated him like a prisoner, except for routine inspections and changes. Liu Hui never allowed him to have contact with other people, including Yu Rui, the medicine doctor, and his beloved, the person who delivered food and emptied the toilet.
Su Yi had long wanted to meet Liu Hui, but he couldn't decide the timing. Now that he realized that the Fengwu Army had the upper hand on the battlefield and that the Qi Army wanted something from him, Su Yi had the confidence to burst out and express his feelings. Resentment·····················
Seeing Su Yi's happy expression, Sun Jing'an patted Su Yi on the shoulder and said:
"Brother Su, let's stop this! Liu Hui is our commander's confidant, and those who offend him in Qilu Realm will not get anything good!"
Su Yi heard this and asked without thinking:
"Brother Sun, you are the brother-in-law of your Marshal Cao. Are you still afraid of this bastard?"
Sun Jing'an said calmly without changing his expression:
"No one else knows that I am a brother-in-law. Brother Su, don't you know?"
Su Yi didn't say anything after hearing what Sun Jingan said, but she had a new understanding of Sun Jingan's status in the Qi army.
Seeing that Su Yi was not talking, Sun Jing'an glanced at the gauze on Su Yi's chest and asked with some concern:
"Brother Su, how are you recovering from your injuries?"
Su Yi said calmly after hearing this:
"Dr. Yu's superb medical skills saved my life!"
"That's good! If Doctor Yu treats this sword wound, if he is ranked second, he will not dare to be ranked first!" Sun Jing applauded and applauded:
After saying this, Sun Jing'an paid more attention to Su Yi's health and asked his men to bring some supplements to Su Yi. After enough preparation, he changed his voice and said:
"Our Marshal Cao wants to see you tomorrow!"
As soon as these words came out, Su Yi turned to Sun Jing'an and asked:
"The Qi army suffered a disastrous defeat?"
"Brother Su, don't you know? Doesn't your Fengwu Army Coordination Office claim to be all-pervasive?" Sun Jing'an did not answer but asked:
Su Yi said somewhat depressedly:
"Liu Hui, this bitch, almost locked me in a cage. What should I know..."
After receiving Su Yi's answer, Sun Jing'an said with some surprise:
"You don't know what's going on outside, how dare you do this to Liu Hui? You are the deputy director of the Foreign Affairs Department of the Fengwu Army. You should know that this Liu Hui is a famous ruthless official, a ruthless character who kills people without blinking an eye!"
Su Yi shook her head and said:
"I really don't know what happened outside, but the situation outside for such a long time should have an outcome. And if your Qi army had the advantage, Zhao Hui would definitely be sarcastic towards me, and he would not be so quiet!"
Listening to Su Yi's analysis, Sun Jing'an was silent for a while and said:
"Your Fengwu Army has indeed fought well during this period. The next battle in Yujing City destroyed the Henan Army's last hope. The Gao family and his son
Already surrendered! "
"After you were assassinated by the assassins sent by Xu Zhaojie, our Qi army was forced to send troops to Jiyu. Originally, the war in Jiyu was at a stalemate. The commander's original idea was to occupy the city in Jiyu and Xutuzhi, and the Henan people in Yujing City The armies are like horns to each other, but with the fall of Yujing, this strategy completely came to nothing, more than half of our elite army was lost, and the casualties were very heavy!"
Although he was talking about Qi Jun, Sun Jing'an's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
Although there was no certification but only testimony five days ago, Duan Yanfeng felt that his generals would not dare to lie to him about this matter, so after realizing that Yujing had been captured by the Fengwu Army, Yuan Song was leading the most elite troops of the Fengwu Army. After the first army came to surround them day and night, Duan Yanfeng made a prompt decision to break out of the encirclement at night and withdraw his soldiers to Qilu... ·····
Although Duan Yanfeng made precise arrangements for the breakout and left behind troops to block the attack, this did not change the gap between the Qi Army and the Fengwu Army. The reason why the Qi Army was able to withstand the Fengwu Army's torrential attack before was because That was based on the establishment of fortifications. Under the protection of camps and city walls, the Qi army under Duan Yanfeng indeed caused a lot of trouble to the Fengwu army!
But once out of the protection of the camp and the city wall, the Fengwu Army's artillery burst out with powerful power, coupled with the strong mobility of the cavalry, forcing the veteran Duan Yanfeng to constantly break his arms to survive. In the end, although he got his wish With the help of the army, he fled back to Qilu territory.
But when this originally 30,000-strong team came back, not only were they left with just over 13,000 horses, they also lost almost all their baggage. The loss of more than 17,000 horses was not caused by the Fengwu Army. The prisoners were completely annihilated. Even among the more than 13,000 people who returned, most of them were wounded.
You must know that the 30,000 troops sent out were the elite troops of the Qi army. In order to enable them to deal with the Fengwu army, Cao Changping even provided them with the few firearms in his hands, but even so they were beaten so hard. Tragic, this undoubtedly made Cao Changping's heart bleed.
Although he was very reluctant to see the Fengwu Army annexing Jiyu, Cao Changping had to admit that it was a fait accompli that Jiyu became the territory of the Fengwu Army, and it was not something he could change, so he really couldn't defeat it. Feng Wujun, Cao Changping could only ask for peace from Ye Mingsheng, hoping that Ye Mingsheng would not care about the faults of villains and would not be like him...
Because of this, Su Yi is particularly important at this critical juncture!
··························
··························
Zhuo County, the governor's residence.
In the study, Ye Kui handed a report to Ye Mingsheng and said:
"Commander, this is from the staff department. Casualty estimates for this Hebei-Henan battle!"
After Ye Mingsheng heard this, he immediately put the memorial in his hand aside, took the report from Ye Kui and read it carefully. With the capture of Yujing and the defeat of the Qi army in Wuhe County, the war in Jiyu can be It was over for now, and Ye Mingsheng asked the staff to count the number of casualties this time.
The Fengwu Army sent troops to Hebei Province this time, using a total of Yuan Song's First Army, Guo Zhiping's Third Division, Peng Ce's Fourth Division, and Zhang Meng's Seventh Division, with a total strength of more than 100,000, plus transportation The civilians supplying supplies are young and strong, and the total number has exceeded 150,000. Therefore, counting the casualties of these people is a huge task that will take half a month or even longer to complete.
However, because Ye Mingsheng was a little urgent and asked the Financial Secretary to prepare pensions for the dead and injured soldiers, the staff department came up with an estimate and gave it to Ye Mingsheng.
Ye Mingsheng opened the report and read the content carefully. Although the Fengwu Army successfully forced the landing of the Gao family and his son in the crucial Battle of Yujing, avoiding the huge casualties of the storming of Yujing, but in the previous Battle of Yecheng, because The Fengwu Army forcibly attacked the city and suffered a lot of casualties. Later, in the battle with the Qi Army and the Anqing Army, although the Fengwu Army had the upper hand, it also suffered a lot of casualties!
Therefore, although he was mentally prepared, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but feel heavy when looking at the shocking estimated figures reported above...
