Chapter 209

"Hey, this is the only plan for the present. If we fight head-on with them, even if we win, our army will suffer heavy casualties. Wouldn't it be fat in the eyes of others?" Hong Yu sighed and comforted, " My lord, my subordinates once said that the land of Anzhou is not a good place to establish a foundation. The only way to get the land of Huazhou is to sit on the three rivers and five passes, and to take advantage of the geographical advantages; It is the capital of the struggle for hegemony. As long as the lord can conquer the Jishan pass and take control of Huazhou, what is there to fear in the mere land of Anzhou and Hengshan's enemies?"

"Sir, you are talented, yes, our strategy is the land of Huazhou in the south, and we must not lose the big because of small things." Li Yuan suddenly realized, and agreed, "This time, we will temporarily stabilize the Hengshan Army and let them retreat first. Buy time for us to attack Huazhou."

"My lord is wise, that's exactly the case." Hong Yu was secretly relieved, and quickly complimented her.

At this moment, the Hengshan army under the city moved, and a young general with a white horse and a silver robe rushed out from the city, with a spear standing upside down, and charged towards Jing'an City on horseback.

Immediately, there was a commotion at the top of the city, and the archers drew their bows and set their arrows, ready to fight.

When Hong Yu saw it, he quickly stopped him and said, "Everyone stay still, the other party is here to deliver a message."

Li Yuan took a closer look, and found that the other party had only one man and one horse, and he really didn't look like a siege man. He also said, "Let him come closer and talk."

The young general reined in his horse less than 20 meters away from the city wall, looked at the countless arrows pointing at him on the wall without fear, and shouted loudly: "Listen, people in the city, my lord asked me to speak , Our Hengshan Army fulfilled our promise and brought all [-] war horses. Now it's up to you to fulfill your promise and let us go."

The young general's words were so loud that everyone at the top of the city could hear them clearly. When they heard this, everyone couldn't help but itch their teeth. Do you think we are fools? I'm ashamed to say that I'm here to make a deal, who are I lying to?

At this moment, Li Yuan felt his face was burning hot. He took hostages to force the Hengshan army to exchange the [-] war horses, but he never expected that the Hengshan army would actually threaten him in this way.Morally, he was at a disadvantage.Tens of thousands of troops are approaching the city. If they exchange the hostages, it may be time for them to attack the city.At that time, the [-] war horses will be theirs again before they warm up on their side.

"Ahem, listen to the generals in the city. I am Li Yuan, the leader of the Li family army." Li Yuan shouted in embarrassment, "The exchange of ten thousand horses was added by Jiang Yunchuan on his own initiative. I don’t know. I would like to ask this little general to go back and inform your lord that I, Li Yuan, have no selfish intentions to covet the horses of the Hengshan Army. I also did not take the deployment of your army as a hostage. Please rest your lord’s anger temporarily. I will give your family an explanation."

"Hmph, is that really the case?" The young general sneered, "Okay, I'll report to my lord right now, and you bring Zheng Han and others up, and we have to make sure that what you're telling is not telling the truth."

"Naturally, I will order someone to bring them here." Li Yuan quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said hastily.

After the young general left, Jiang Yunchuan, who was standing not far away, fell to his knees with a plop, and looked at Li Yuan in horror, "My lord, my lord, those ten thousand horses..."

"Shut up, you damn thing, who told you to ask for a horse?" Before he finished speaking, Li Yuan interrupted him, with a look of embarrassment flashing in his eyes, and shouted, "Come on, get him Detain me."

Immediately, the guards restrained Jiang Yunchuan and dragged him down the wall, leaving only his voice crying for mercy and howling mournfully.

Everyone watched Jiang Yunchuan being dragged to the city with the sadness of a rabbit dead and a fox, and their hearts trembled slightly.Mr. Hongyu looked at Li Yuan, opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, his face suddenly became much darker.

Li Yuan didn't notice the expressions of his subordinates, and hurriedly ordered Zheng Han and others to be invited to the top of the city wall, preparing to negotiate with the Hengshan Army.

After a while, a group of people appeared on the top of the city, and under the surveillance of Li's army officers and soldiers, they walked slowly towards Li Yuan.The leader of this group of people is Zheng Han himself, but now he is no longer the look of the day, his eyes are dull, and his face is decadent.And beside him, there was a young girl timidly hiding behind him, with big eyes fluttering, looking at the people around with a little fear.

When they came, Li Yuan immediately went up to meet them, looked at them with concern, and said apologetically, "Oh, General Zheng, please forgive me for my negligence. From today onwards, you are free."

Hearing this, Zheng Han's dull eyes suddenly lit up, and his indifferent face showed surprise, "You, you want to let us go?"

"That's right, I value you very much, General. I wanted to recruit you to join us, but the General already has his own heart and has been unwilling to agree. Then I have no choice but to let you go." Li Yuan showed a look of sympathy and sighed. , "Right now, the Hengshan Army is under the city, after a while, you all go out of the city to join them."

"What, the Hengshan army is here?" Zheng Han was taken aback, and immediately rushed out of the crowd, went up to the battlements, and looked around, and saw the blackness below the city, like a black tide of soldiers and horses. "This, is this the Hengshan Army?"

"That's right, General Zheng. Because of my love, I forced you to stay for a while. I didn't want to make Mr. Lin of Hengshan misunderstand that I was holding you as hostages to threaten Hengshan." Li Yuan smiled wryly, "It seems General Zheng is indeed Lord Lin's confidant general, who thinks highly of you, and even summoned tens of thousands of troops to go south, regardless of the danger in the rear, and surrounded the city of Jing'an along the way. This fact is a big misunderstanding, in order to prevent the two armies You have hurt harmony and caused unnecessary casualties, so General Zheng and the Hengshan Army should talk it over, peace is the most important thing in everything."

Zheng Han didn't listen to Li Yuan's nagging at all, and stared blankly at the army under the city, moved to tears.My lord has not forgotten us, he still misses us very much, for us, he even took risks himself, just to save everyone.

"Brother Zheng, what's the matter with you?" At this moment, a timid voice came from the side, it was the girl who had been hiding behind him.

"Miss, look, those people on the opposite side are all your brother's men, they are here to rescue us." Zheng Han wiped away his tears, pointed at the Hengshan Army under the city, and said excitedly.

"Ah? My brother Fan is so powerful?" The girl looked at the people and horses below with her toes on her toes, and let out an exclamation.

"Yeah, your brother is amazing, we'll see him soon." Zheng Han patted her head dotingly and smiled.

Li Yuan stood there in embarrassment, listening to their unscrupulous opponent, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Fortunately, at this time, the young general in white robe on the opposite side reappeared with someone, and immediately shot down the city, raised his head and shouted: "Did you bring someone?"

"The one below is the brother of the Hengshan Army? This is Zheng Han." Zheng Han had seen him a long time ago, and immediately shouted at him.

The white-robed young general Luo Feng took a closer look, turned around and asked the people around him, and after getting affirmation, he raised his head and shouted: "This is Luo Feng, the commander of the Hengshan Army's light cavalry, who has met Brother Zheng."

"Are you Luo Feng, the son of County Captain Luo?" Zheng Han shouted excitedly, "Great, this is your lord's cousin, Miss Lin Shuwan, and I brought her to Hengshan." "

As he spoke, he pulled the girl behind him to the crenellation of the wall, pointed at her and said.

A beautiful little face was exposed on the top of the wall, looking curiously towards Luo Feng, blinking at the silver-robed young general below, suddenly showing a shy blush, only glanced twice, then retracted his head.

Luo Feng froze the moment she appeared, and stared at her until she disappeared again.

"Luo Feng, Luo Feng, what's wrong with you?" Seeing him staying there, Zheng Han couldn't help shouting in confusion.

"Oh, it's okay." Luo Feng came back to his senses and quickly replied, "Brother Zheng, your lord has led an army of [-] from Hengshan, and you will be saved soon."
