Zhong Niangzi Wanfu

Chapter 74 I, Wen Yi, will never retreat until I die
一
After the dam was destroyed, Shen Yan sent someone to send Zhong Yan back to the capital safely.

He originally planned to bring people back to aid Wen Yi, but the emperor of the capital came with a decree and ordered Shen Feng to immediately go to Xiliang as an envoy to negotiate peace with Xiliang together with Li Bingguang, the Minister of Rites, who had already arrived in Xiliang.

Considering the current situation in Danzhou, Shen Feng was afraid that Wen Yi would not be able to resist, so he planned to resign and continue to stay in Danzhou to assist Wen Yi.

After Wen Yi learned about it, he sent a letter to Shen Feng, saying that Mr. Zhangjue died in Xiliang under mysterious circumstances. Shen Feng could use this opportunity to make a thorough investigation. It was not worth mentioning to the southern barbarians, so he persuaded Shen Feng to accept the order and send an envoy.

When Shen Feng went to Xiliang as an envoy, Wen Yi finally lacked a helper. Zhang Yan had not yet returned help, and he did not dare to trust You Hanting easily, so he became extra cautious when marching and fighting.

Nan'an was born with a life-threatening ruthlessness. Even without backup, Wen Yi was still beaten hard and had no time to worry about finding the traitor in the camp.

As for Zhang Yan, Dongchang's reinforcements arrived in time, and he led his troops to recapture Nanguan with great difficulty.

However, after Nan'an's backup was blocked, they quickly gathered reinforcements from Xiliang in an attempt to break through Nanguan again, which restrained Zhang Yan and made him unable to return reinforcements.

Nan'an's military tactics were cunning, and it was obvious that the terrain of Danzhou had been known for a long time. Wen Yi knew that the lost map had fallen into the hands of the enemy.

The battle to retake Danzhou continued directly into the second year.

Just after the first month, there was a defeat, and Wen Yi was forced to retreat into Qin Lin City.

Just returned to the city from the battlefield, Wen Yi's silver armor was stained with blood. He sat down on a chair tiredly, punched the table with his fist, and said solemnly: "They have restrained them to death in the past few months. They have absolutely nothing in their hands." There’s more than just one map.”

"Finding the traitor is the top priority now."

Yun Chi followed closely and brought the military doctor in, and ordered the military doctor to bandage Wen Yi's wounds: "Sir, the eldest lady sent someone to say that the matter in Dongchang has been dealt with, and they will bring people to support you within three days."

When Wen Yi heard this, he became anxious: "The battlefield is dangerous, what is eldest sister doing here? Send someone quickly to stop eldest sister, don't let her come."

Yun Chi hesitated: "The eldest lady is afraid that the Lord will make a mistake. If Danzhou cannot hold on, the eldest lady will give the Lord a way out."

"Absurd! According to the laws of Beizhao, deserters must be beheaded. Are you confused, eldest sister?" Wen Yi asked back, "Besides, I, Wen Yi, am a minister, and I have no intention of escaping from battle because I am loyal to the emperor and eats his salary!"

Wen Yi looked at Yun Chi and said sternly: "Go and tell my eldest sister that I have made up my mind and no one can dissuade her. Let her not come to Danzhou to waste her words and bear the responsibility of delaying the military plane."

Yunchi understood: "I understand, little one." After saying that, he withdrew.

After bandaging, the military doctor also exited the tent, leaving only Wen Yi in the tent.

Wen Yi closed his eyes, clasped his hands in front of his forehead, forced himself to calm down, and sorted out his thoughts little by little. After a long while, his eyes became stern, he raised his head and called out: "Yun Lang!"

Yun Lang heard the sound and entered the door: "What's your order?"

Wen Yi narrowed his eyes: "Go and rectify the whole army, and three days later, we will fight to the death with the southern bandits!"

Yunlang was obviously stunned when he heard what Wen Yi said: "Sir, but we have just lost the battle with Nan'an and have retreated to the city. Now the morale of the soldiers and people in the city is low. It is really not a good time for a decisive battle. I thought, Hang a no-war sign at the city gate and rest and recuperate..."

Wen Yi sneered: "Recuperate and recuperate? Whose recuperate? Do you recuperate and fight against the southern thieves and the traitors in my camp?"

Yun Lang still hesitated: "But..."

"No buts, I will issue a military order, and I, Wen Yi, will live and die with all the soldiers!" Wen Yi interrupted Yun Lang decisively, "Just do as I say."

Yun Lang had no choice but to retreat: "Yes."

Hearing that Wen Yi was going to have a decisive battle with Nan'an, You Hanting was also shocked and quickly asked Wen Yi about his plan.

Looking at You Hanting's earnest persuasion, Wen Yi waved his hand impatiently: "Supervisor, I have my own plans." "But as a supervisor, I can't just watch the deputy commander bring down the entire city's soldiers and civilians. The people are ignored." You Hanting frowned and said solemnly, emphasizing the word "deputy commander", as if to remind Wen Yi that he is just the deputy commander, and important military matters cannot be decided by him alone.

"If the deputy commander has other strategies, he can speak out to persuade the subordinate, and the subordinate will not say much."

When Wen Yi heard this, he became alert and glanced at You Hanting: "This is a plan that I and the Soviet military advisor have thought up hard. The duty of supervising the army is not to question and investigate the military commander's military plans, right?"

After Shen Feng resigned as military advisor and went to Xiliang as envoy, the royal capital appointed Zhang Yan's protégé Su Kuo as military advisor. However, Su Kuo was cautious and cowardly by nature, and relied entirely on Wen Yi to make the decision in the war. Therefore, Wen Yi was behind this incident. The idea came from one person, and there was no way for him to know about it from anywhere else.

You Hanting was choked by Wen Yi and did not speak.

Wen Yi smiled slightly when he saw this: "Three days later, the supervisor army will lead people out of the west gate of Qin Lin to clear out the enemy forces on the west flank of Nan'an. There are many hills in the western suburbs, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. This matter may not be difficult for the supervisor army. .”

You Hanting lowered his head and nodded: "Yes."

"At that time, the cleaning of the west wing will be completed. If the supervising army has spare capacity, please go around and support the main force." Wen Yi said the words in an incomprehensible way, while looking at You Hanting's expression, as if he was testing.

There was a hint of gloom in You Hanting's eyes, but he still bowed his head and responded: "Yes."

Before setting off for the expedition three days later, Wen Yi sent a letter of warning to the people in the city, passionately expressing his determination to never retreat.

He was originally the magistrate of Qin Lin County. He was well-loved for his benevolent policies before. Now he has to live and die with the people of Qin Lin. The people in the city couldn't help but be moved and gradually united together. Women, children, old and young were summoned to the almshouse in the city, and every house was closed. At the gate, the young man picked the weapon he had at his disposal and stood guard inside the city gate to make the final plan.

Wen Yi was dazzling in silver armor, and he still looked handsome and carefree, but he lost the youthful spirit of the past and became more composed and steady.

He stood on the tower of Qin Lin, looked at the soldiers below the tower, took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "It has been more than half a year since the southern thieves invaded our Danzhou. If Qin Lin is lost, the southern thieves will attack Nanguan again, and fight with If the interior of Nan'an in Xiliang should be united with the outside, then Yong'an will be in danger and Danzhou will be in danger! As the Danzhou army, most of you are Danzhou people. I am even more from Danzhou. My ancestors are also in Danzhou. We must not let Danzhou fall. adversary."

Wen Yi pulled out his long sword and pointed it at the sky, Zhuang Su said: "I will never retreat from Tan Lin, and I will live and die with Tan Lin!"

The soldiers downstairs also received encouragement, and they all raised their arms and shouted: "Shi and Tan Lin will live and die together!"

Wen Yi got off the tower and jumped on his horse: "Go to war!"

You Hanting, who was also wearing armor, watched Wen Yi lead his troops out of the city on the tower and remained silent.

Sleepy on the side stepped forward hesitantly: "Sir, I don't know what Vice Admiral Wen has planned now. Over in Shengzhou..."

"Shut up, I know." You Hanting stopped thinking.

Seeing that there was no one around, You Hanting was slightly absent-minded: "Kang Jia's death was not hidden from Wen Yi in the past few days. In the past few days, Wen Yi has begun to secretly investigate the theft of the map, thinking that it will not be long before he is traced to me. "

"My lord, don't be afraid. My lord is someone who pities Lord Ping. Now that the map is in Nan'an's hands, Marshal Gao of Nan'an has probably figured out Wen Yi's military strategy. No matter what great strategy he has, he will definitely lose this battle. By then, he will lose this battle. If I have done my best to show my mercy to you, I will not treat you badly." Kunsi persuaded me.

"What do you know, you slave?" You Hanting glanced at Han Si, frightened him and immediately bowed his head and fell silent.

"Even if it happens, it will be You Hankang who gets the favor with Lord Minping, not me, You Hanting. If it doesn't happen, they will just push me out to take the blame."

Sleepy was surprised for a moment: "What do you mean, sir?"

"Mao Xun, who is with Mr. Minping, came to see me secretly a few days ago. Go and tell him..." You Hanting whispered a few words in Kangsi's ear.

"Yes." Hansi retreated knowingly.

You Hanting looked at the soldiers leaving the city with a ruthless look in his eyes: "Do you all think that I, You Hanting, have always been a coward who only knows how to submit? Now I want to show you what it means to follow the dragon and what it means to kill an adulterer. "
