Chapter 575 Regret
Thirty-Six Stratagems?
I don’t know which plan it is…
Lu Yuncheng looked at Lu Yuntao and He Yanxiu, and after thinking for a long time, he suddenly clapped his head and said, "It's a good idea, let's do it!"
Everyone nodded.
After returning to Seorak Palace, everyone started to go about their business.
Meanwhile, Tuoba Duan soon received news that two places had been attacked.
As for the matter of the magic soldiers being abducted, none of the subordinates gave any explanation. They only said that the Qin army came suddenly, and fortunately, they had the magic water, which enabled the magic soldiers to turn the situation around and successfully drive away the Qin army.
After hearing this, Tuoba Duan's face was full of smiles, "This Great Qin is really interesting. This sneak attack was carried out with such fanfare, probably just to see if the rumors outside are true."
"Seeing is believing. Those incompetent idiots from the Qin side not only believed it completely, but I'm afraid they are also afraid. I guess they are discussing how to deal with it right now."
Someone on the side sneered, "However, no matter how they discuss, I'm afraid they don't have any countermeasures. They can only watch our Xijinyun army flatten their Great Qin territory!"
These words touched Tuoba Duan's heart, and his face was full of pride and satisfaction. "Of course it is so."
By then, other tribes in the country will also see the benefits of invading and destroying the Qin State!
Give a good slap to those who are clamoring for a ceasefire and even want to welcome Tuoba Yu back!
When thinking of Tuoba Yu, Tuoba Duan's expression became uglier and he clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves.
At the beginning, he personally slashed Tuoba Yu several times, thinking that he must have died, but he never thought that he would retain his life and even have such great ambitions! At the beginning, he should have cut him into pieces and thrown his body into the mountains to feed the wolves, and it would not have come to this point today.
"Is there no one available in Daqin?" Tuoba Duan asked.
If there is still someone available, we can get rid of that annoying bastard Tuoba Yu.
"There is no use for it."
When this matter was mentioned, the people below also felt a little regretful.
The original County Magistrate Sun had already been captured by Princess Ping'an and He Yanxiu. It was said that he had been sentenced to immediate execution and his head had probably already fallen to the ground.
There was also He Liangyi, who was the deputy general. He was able to do a lot of things and play a huge role in daily life. However, he was seriously injured in that battle and died.
The former was fine, as he was discovered by others and was hard to guard against. Besides, he was just a county magistrate, so it was no pity if he was gone.
But He Liangyi, who holds an important position and knows a lot of things, was injured by the soldiers of Xijinyun State...
Tuoba Duan thought of this, sighed, and said angrily, "This He Liangyi really has no sense of propriety. When it came to that, why would he care about Lu Yunyue's life? In the end, he ended up sacrificing his own life!"
"If the king calms down, then He Liangyi is out of options." The subordinate explained, "Since he is in that position, he is likely to be suspected by others. He can only resort to the self-torture strategy to protect himself and to serve the king. However, on the battlefield, swords have no eyes and the situation is difficult to discern. It is possible that he will make mistakes."
But this momentary mistake caused him to lose such a powerful arm in vain, and he was unable to obtain a lot of information, which was really disadvantageous to the war.
"Speaking of He Liangyi, the king had previously rewarded him with a lot of gold and silver. According to the people who worked for him, they were all hidden in one place. Now that he is gone, these gold, silver and other valuables..."
Do you want to take it back?
The people below wanted to talk but stopped themselves.
Tuoba Duan curled his lips and said, "Since this man is dead, the gold and silver treasures cannot be put into the coffin. If they are kept for nothing, who will benefit from them? So we should send them all back as rewards to the soldiers who fought hard against the enemy."
"This can be considered as the last time that He Liangyi will be loyal to me and serve me." Tuoba Duan added.
Furthermore, He Liangyi was originally a Han Chinese from the Qin Dynasty, but for the sake of gold and silver, he was willing to act as an insider for the Western Jinyun Kingdom, and even betrayed the people who appreciated and promoted him.
Since such a person dared to betray the Great Qin State for money, he would naturally dare to betray him, the ruler of Xijinyun State, for money. He was not worthy of enjoying these properties.
"Yes." The subordinate responded, his eyes were dark and unclear. After a moment, he asked again, "The generals in several places are also waiting for the king's instructions. I just want to ask whether we will send troops according to the original plan in two days."
"Of course." Tuoba Duan nodded.
The current situation of the entire Xijinyun Kingdom can no longer be delayed.
We must start the war as soon as possible and end it quickly.
"Yes." The subordinates responded again and passed on the message according to Tuoba Duan's instructions.
The night gradually fades away, the morning light appears in the east, and a new day arrives.
In the evening, the sun sets and dusk falls.
Two days passed quickly, and the troops from several parts of Xijinyun State arrived near Zhuchuan County according to the established plan.
They set up camp, made fires and cooked, allowing the entire army to take a short rest.
The leading general was the eldest son of the Dugu clan in the Tuoba tribe, named Dugu Yingfei, and his deputy general was Pu Anjue, who was also from the Tuoba tribe.
"General," Pu Anjue said, "It's still a long way to night, so you should take a rest and get enough rest."
"At night?" Dugu Yingfei pulled the corner of his mouth, "Why do we have to wait until night?"
Pu Anjue was stunned for a moment, "Didn't the general plan to attack the city tonight?"
"Usually, sieges are usually carried out at night, in order to take advantage of the cover of darkness to attack the city. But now that our Xijinyun Kingdom has the help of divine soldiers, are we still afraid of the Great Qin Kingdom?"
Dugu Yingfei smiled and said, "Moreover, this general has heard today that the soldiers of the Great Qin State are very afraid because they know about the magic soldiers of our Xijinyun State. Many soldiers who guard the city have deserted, and the guards are not strict."
"Who knows, once we beat the drums of war, those Qin losers will be so scared that they will give us Zhuchuan County for nothing."
"General, you are absolutely right." Pu Anjue also nodded with a smile.
"So we don't have to wait until night. We can start attacking the city after noon when the sun starts to set. We can set up a banquet in the county government office of Zhuchuan County to reward the soldiers!"
Dugu Yingfei waved his hand, "Pass on this general's order. At the beginning of the 3:00 pm period, the entire army will attack. We must capture Zhuchuan County within an hour!"
"Yes!" Pu Anjue agreed and ordered someone to pass on the message according to Dugu Yingfei's wishes.
After receiving the military order, the soldiers of Xijinyun State were eager to try. After lunch, they wiped the swords, hammers and other tools in their hands again and again.
As soon as the afternoon arrived, the sound of war drums began.
