Chapter 345: A Melee
Northern Xinjiang
After learning of unusual movements in southern Xinjiang, General Zhang and other border generals imposed martial law.
They did not detect any Northern Rong troops gathering.
But before they could relax, troops gathered and marched from Nanling, which had lost its territory and owned sixteen states.
This news quickly spread back to the fourteen states of Nanling.
It was unusual for Yu Chang of the pseudo-court to choose this time to send troops.
If he had wanted to side with Zong Zheng Ruijin, the two of them could have joined forces and merged Nanling long ago.
But it was no coincidence that Yuchang took action just as something unexpected happened in southern Xinjiang.
As soon as he learned the news, General Zhang sent a rescue message to other states.
Let other states dispatch troops to support.
And this was the general that he and Xie Xuan had contacted.
In order to avoid generals who were unaware of the truth from causing trouble when they were cleaning up their own house, they communicated secretly.
It was also to prevent the Northern Rong from launching an attack when they took the imperial capital.
Therefore, combined with previous exercises and drills, this wave of linkage was quite smooth.
An unknown number of troops emerged from the Sixteen Lost States and marched down the road to attack the northern border. When each state sent reinforcements first,
at the same time
The imperial capital looked on coldly at Zong Zheng Ruijin, who was in the fire in the southern border's backyard, but was shocked. "What did you say? Yu Chang sent troops to launch a surprise attack?"
Qin Qi and several other cabinet ministers all had scorched faces.
The generals of the northern border heard the news and took action, no longer obeying the orders from the imperial capital. Their intentions were obvious.
However, it was completely different from what the emperor expected. Beirong did not move at all, but the other half of Nanling moved.
Zong Zheng Ruijin's eyes flashed with disbelief, suspicion, incomprehension and many other emotions.
The imperial capital was silent and still, like an empty city.
A long time passed before Zong Zheng Ruijin fell into the dragon throne with a dazed look on his face. "The Beirong's target is me..."
But this time, he wouldn't have time to figure it out. If the two countries of Nanling came to blows, it would be a fight to the death...
And the Northern Rong will also benefit from it.
General Zhang did not sit idly by, but took the initiative to attack and disrupt the momentum of the coalition forces of the Sixteen States.
They sent a large number of scouts from the sky to specifically pick out their food and military supplies.
As long as they have no food, I wonder how arrogant they can be.
Although the hot air balloon cannot go too deep, this time it is Nanling's other half that comes to the door.
But they had no idea that the land and air of Nanling were now connected into a network.
Whether it is large-scale defense or small-scale, sporadic attacks, the general who has lost the land can be confused.
The results of the long-term training were applied to the generals who lost the territory, but General Zhang and his men did not feel the joy of victory.
That night, both Nanling in the north and south stayed awake all night.
Su Shengsheng, who had been tossing and turning all night, heard the news as soon as she woke up.
I just feel heavy-hearted.
If Yu Chang took action at this time, he must have had contact with the Jun family.
But before this, they had not learned from Zong Zheng Ruijin that he had contact with Yu Chang.
Beirong allowed Yu Chang's troops to pass through his jurisdiction, which must have been a pre-planned move, or he was trying to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
At this moment, the only one who did not move was Bai Shangguo.
While Su Shengsheng and her grandfather were anxiously waiting for news, they heard that Northern Rong troops were attacking from the southeast.
It is not the imperial capital, but the direction of the Thirteen Passes in Southern Xinjiang.
Of course, it is still a long way for their main force to arrive in southern Xinjiang.
The generals of the Eastern Territory who learned the news along the way took the initiative to attack without asking Zong Zhengrui for an imperial decree.
At the same time, all the imperial guards were assembled.
Zong Zheng Ruijin's trusted generals also rushed to the imperial capital to provide assistance.
But in such a chaotic moment, Xie Xuan disappeared from the public eye.
No one knew where he went, including Su Shengsheng.
The person who greets me every morning and evening is now silent.
This made Su Shengsheng feel uneasy.
The fire at Tianqian Pass has been completely extinguished and martial law has been imposed everywhere.
The Northern Rong troops surrounded them, but were still far away.
The imperial capital was sealed off and all the imperial guards were dispatched.
At the same time, they also lost news of Ning Jie.
Prince Jingyuan and Prince Wenrui were also silent.
But Yunzhou fought all night long.
"How can they have so many troops?" Even Bai Ping, who had retreated from outside, felt suspicious.
The situation in the imperial capital is unclear, why is it the same in Yunzhou?
Su Ruilin said solemnly, "The movement of Baishang Country at this moment is the key."
The moment the Northern Rong soldiers showed up after taking a detour, the generals along the border attacked them spontaneously.
Even if they could reach this natural barrier, they would be exhausted.
But their intentions were unclear to everyone.
Even though Jun Yao hated her to the core, she allied with the Nanzhao Kingdom.
Even if Zong Zheng Ruijin joined forces with Beirong and conspired to eliminate the Qilin Army.
But why did the Sixteen States get involved?
Do they still want to swallow this half of Nanling alive?
If that's the case, how could Zong Zheng Ruijin be willing to give in?
If Beirong really had this ability, he would have let the coward Yu Chang lead the troops and become a sinner for all eternity.
Then he could have swallowed Zong Zhengrui before that.
Besides, doesn’t Zong Zheng Ruijin have any brains at all?
How dare you make such a big request and ruin your own future just to get rid of a Qilin Army?
This matter seems weird no matter how you look at it.
But there is no doubt that Beirong’s target is the Qilin Army.
Then this place is not very safe.
Duke Ningguo acted decisively and ordered the Su family and the people to retreat to the safe state capital.
However, when the people heard about this, they were afraid of the fate of Baishang Kingdom, so they joined forces with Beirong to attack the Thirteen Passes, indicating that they would advance and retreat with the Qilin Army until death and would not retreat.
The last time Yunzhou rebelled, there were numerous bloody incidents at Tianqian Pass.
This time, they will live and die together with the Tianqian Pass.
No matter whether it is Nanzhao Kingdom, Beirong or Baishang Kingdom, whoever comes will be made to come without returning.
The women in the nursing team even gathered spontaneously.
Rush directly to the front line to rescue the injured Qilin Army soldiers.
The other people set up pots and stoves in the rear to provide food for the soldiers.
Although there were some unexpected situations this time, the situation is still favorable.
As long as the Baishang Kingdom does not surrender, the Qilin Army should be able to overcome the difficulties safely.
After all, those who discovered the Northern Rong soldiers along the way had already led their troops to attack and dealt a heavy blow to the Northern Rong soldiers.
But Yunzhou is a bit too weak.
A morning passed and the situation was still in chaos.
Duke Ningguo's troops have arrived and are encircling and suppressing the Nanzhao soldiers who want to take advantage of the chaos to invade Yunzhou.
However, there were still many chaotic battles inside Yunzhou.
A morning passed, and just when the Yunzhou defense network was about to be successfully encircled, the scouts in the air suddenly discovered that Beirong soldiers were coming.
"Hurry into the city, the Northern Rong soldiers are coming to attack us?"
The air force conveyed the message to the land force.
The elite Qilin Army soldiers below, who had not yet completely eliminated the Nanzhao soldiers, immediately gave up fighting and retreated to Yunzhou City.
"Fuck, where did the Northern Rong soldiers come from? Did they pop out from between the rocks?"
As they retreated, they cursed in frustration.
I thought that this time with the two magical objects, the telescope and the clairaudient, I would definitely have the upper hand.
But who knew that the people from Beirong also came quietly.
"They don't look like they've been in battle, and they don't have any food or supplies. They must be the vanguard generals. Don't dawdle, hurry into the city."
"I think you should come down and try. The people of Nanzhao Kingdom are desperate."
Even in desperate moments, they can still make jokes.
"Crow's Mouth, someone is really shooting arrows at me, make room for me quickly."
The soldiers who had just fought their way into the city looked up and saw the same air soldiers as them, and they shot arrows at the air soldiers.
"Damn it!"
