Chapter 233: War Begins



Along the way, Yan Feiqiao held Shang Yangyang in her arms while Shang Qingan led the horse.

But Shang Yangyang was so anxious. She was about to leave the capital, but her second brother didn't say a word.

[What is my silly second brother thinking about? ]

Shang Qingan remained silent until they reached the outskirts of the capital. Then he said, "Have a safe journey."

Yan Feiqiao nodded, and she rubbed Shang Yangyang's little head again. "Yangyang, wait until your sister comes back to Beijing to play with you."

"OK."

Yan Feiqiao handed Shang Yangyang in her arms to Shang Qingan. She looked at Shang Qingan before swinging the whip. "Second brother, your memory is too bad. I hope you don't forget me when I come back next time."

“I won’t forget it.”

After she finished speaking, Yan Feiqiao rode her horse farther and farther away, until they could no longer see her figure.

Shang Yangyang looked up at Shang Qingan. She couldn’t understand what Shang Qingan was thinking?

"Alas~ The adult world is hard to understand."

"Yangyang, you don't understand. Anyway, I will wait for her."

Shang Yangyang didn't understand at all and turned back to the capital. Shang Qingan, who was standing in the same place, also chased after him. "Yangyang, wait for your second brother."

The capital city was still the prosperous capital city, but Guanggu City was in chaos at this time.

"General, it's bad. More people from the Southern Frontier Kingdom have passed through Qiyun Mountain. The Fifth Team is fighting them now."

Yan Lei's brows were knitted tightly, and he said sternly and urgently: "Deputy General Li, set out immediately to check the situation of the formation."

"Yes, sir."

As soon as Yan Lei finished speaking, another voice was heard: "General, something is wrong. The army of Southern Xinjiang has advanced one kilometer!" A scout rushed into the tent panting, his face full of anxiety.

Yan Lei's body shook, and he quickly walked out of the tent, like a flash of lightning breaking through the night sky, his steps were firm and fast, and he ran straight to the city wall. Standing on the city wall, his eyes were like torches, staring at the Nanjiang army opposite.

"Pass the order down, strengthen the city's defense and prepare for battle." Yan Lei's voice sounded again.

Yan Lei ordered again: "Report the battle situation to the capital immediately."

"Yes, sir." After a brief and powerful response, several figures in Guanggu City jumped on their horses like arrows and galloped away. The sound of horse hooves echoed in the quiet streets like the prelude to war drums.

It was not until nightfall that the city of Guanggu was filled with smoke and the battle began.

The opposite Nanjiang Kingdom was like holding the layout of Qiyun Mountain in their hands, and broke through Qiyun Mountain's formations one by one. If it weren't for Lieutenant General Li who was adjusting the formations and deploying the troops in front, Qiyun Mountain would have become a breakthrough point for Nanjiang Kingdom.

Guanggu City was also facing the pressure from the army of Southern Xinjiang Kingdom.

Yan Lei led his troops into battle, and it was not until the sun rose the next day that the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom called off the battle. Yan Lei returned to the city with his exhausted soldiers.

"Father, Lieutenant General Li is over at Qiyun Mountain, so they are holding on for now."

Yan Lei took the water bag beside him and drank it in big gulps. "Take your men to Ancheng immediately and ask Master Wuyun to come and re-set up the formation."

"But father..."

Yan Lei interrupted Yan Jing'an before he finished speaking. "Obey military orders."

"Yes, sir."

Yan Lei looked at Yan Jing'an and continued, "Go quickly and come back soon. Believe in me, your father, I will definitely be able to defend Guanggu City."

"Okay, Dad." Yan Jing'an said nothing and took his men away from Guanggu City.

At this time, in the Nanjiang army camp, a man in green stood in the tent. "Great wizard, why don't you just attack Guanggu City?"

Jiang Binqing: "King Kang, the formation diagram and layout you gave me are slightly inconsistent with the situation in Guanggu City. I can't gamble with the lives of my Nanjiang soldiers."

"Besides, this all happened too suddenly, and our Southern Border Country is not ready yet."

The person standing opposite him at this moment was Lu Mubai, who disappeared in the prison the day before. After the golden light dissipated, he went directly to the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom. At that moment, a voice in his mind told him to let the two countries fight and kill more people, so that he still had a chance to turn things around.

That was why he immediately sought out the great wizard and drew out the layout map of Mount Qiyun that he had seen after he ascended the throne, as well as the military defense map of Guanggu City.

There will indeed be some errors due to some circumstances, but the errors are not large. As long as the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom goes to war, at most more people will die. In the end, the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom will definitely win. He does not care about these results at all. What he cares about is his chance to turn things around.

He wants to trample Shang Yuanshan's family under his feet.

Lu Mubai said anxiously: "Great Wizard, I have nothing to hide from you. As long as you use the map I gave you, the Xiling Kingdom will definitely lose."

Jiang Binqing picked up the tea beside him and looked at Lu Mubai with a smile: "King Kang, you really hate Xiling Kingdom, but I can't joke with the soldiers of Nanjiang Kingdom, and I have a better plan."

"What's the plan?"

The corners of Jiang Binqing's mouth rose more and more. He told Lu Mubai his plan, which made Lu Mubai shudder, but also very happy. If Jiang Binqing did it, more people in Xiling Kingdom would die.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news, Great Wizard."

Jiang Binqing nodded. "Please look forward to it."

For several days, the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom kept trying to send troops, which made Yan Lei and his men exhausted.

At the same time, today the capital finally received the news coming from Guanggu City.

When Emperor Yuan Ming received the news from Guanggu City, he felt even more uneasy.

Shang Yuanshan: "Your Majesty, Lu Mubai has not already arrived in Southern Xinjiang, right?"

Emperor Yuan Ming frowned, thinking. "It's very possible, but even if it's him, how could he know the formation arrangement of Qiyun Mountain?"

"If it's Lu Mubai, then everything is possible."

After listening to Shang Yuanshan's words, Emperor Yuan Ming nodded.

Emperor Yuan Ming looked at Shang Yuanshan and said, "If he is here, Guanggu City will be in danger."

Shang Yuanshan knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I will lead the troops to support you."

“But you….”

Shang Yuanshan interrupted Emperor Yuan Ming and said, "Your Majesty, I cannot remain unscathed in this matter."

Emperor Yuan Ming nodded. "Okay, lead 100,000 troops to support Guanggu City."

"Yes, sir~"

Shang Yuanshan went out of the city to inspect the troops with the imperial edict issued by Emperor Yuan Ming.

"Dad, I'll go with you." Shang Yuanshan turned around and saw that the person coming was Shang Qingan, who had an anxious look on his face.

"Okay, let's go to the battlefield together, father and son."

Then another carriage arrived. "Uncle Shang, I want to go with you too."

The people who got off the carriage were Jiang Peixuan, Shang Yangyang and Shang Qian'an.

"No, if they find you, you will be dragged back into the war in Southern Border Country."

Jiang Peixuan looked at Shang Yuanshan very firmly: "Uncle Shang, I can't hide behind you anymore. I must go back with you this time. I must avenge my mother."

"Are you sure?" Shang Yuanshan's face was full of worry. After spending so much time together, he had completely treated Jiang Peixuan as his own child. He no longer wanted to use this child as he did when he first came. He didn't want him to be in danger, but he had to support his decision.

Jiang Peixuan nodded firmly and forcefully. "Uncle Shang, I am sure that I must go back with you. I can definitely help you, and this is also a good opportunity."
