Lian Gui continued to explain what happened last night. Everyone looked at him and listened carefully, wanting to know what happened.
Lian Gui cleared his throat.
The story was told vividly.
"General Liu and General Sun were originally wandering outside with 50,000 troops! But because Jiang Lan was watching, it was difficult for them to come back openly!"
"The two generals are afraid of ruining His Royal Highness Prince Yan's plan!"
"Guess what?"
Hua Lingyi is curious!
"What?"
"If you want me to, I'll just kill that Jiang Lan."
Lian Gui stretched out a finger and shook it. Then he said with a smile.
"Our prince is really smart! Jiang Lan is in trouble!"
"That's perfect! Jiang Lan actually promised the Jin people that he would secretly set fire to our food supplies."
"In this way, he can't monitor General Liu and General Sun wholeheartedly. He only sent two small soldiers and crab generals!"
"They were dealt with directly by the two generals."
General Sun and General Liu heard that they were being talked about. They smiled. "It's mainly because Jiang Lan is greedy and wants everything."
Everyone nodded.
Lian Gui continued to talk about what happened later.
"That was later! General Liu and General Sun brought more than 50,000 people and quietly returned to the vicinity of the military camp, waiting for the next order from the prince."
Hua Lingjian frowned, "What about Jiang Lan? She really went to burn the food and grass."
After the battle, they came directly to the military camp of Prince Yan, and they really didn't know whether the food and grass were damaged.
Seeing that many people were getting nervous, Lian Gui quickly shook his head and waved his hands.
"Don't worry, everyone! The food and fodder are plenty!"
"Jiang Lan took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and sneaked back into the military camp with dozens of people, attempting to set fire to the food and grass."
"But General Qiu has already sent people to guard it! How could he succeed?"
When Lian Gui recounted this experience, a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.
"Not only that, I also sent a secret letter to General Suo Wuyan of the Great Jin Dynasty on behalf of Jiang Lan, falsely claiming that there were only 70,000 people left in our military camp. I also successfully burned a large amount of food and grass."
"Just like that, the Tuowuyan side finally couldn't hold back and sent out their last 200,000 elite troops to encircle and suppress them."
"Maybe you don't know, but these 200,000 troops are all the wealth that the Jin Dynasty has at its bottom of the chest."
"This Tenn Wuyan is also very cunning. He was afraid of a trick, so he tried many ways. In the end, he was convinced that there were only 70,000 troops left in our camp."
"He just summoned all the Jin soldiers and surrounded the entire camp, trying to catch us all in one fell swoop!
Lian Gui became very excited when he said this.
"Hehe, this just happened to fall into the trap we carefully designed."
"The 50,000 people who were hiding before and the other 50,000 people led by General Sun and General Liu make a total of 110,000 people!"
"As soon as we saw our prince's signal, we quickly took action and surrounded the Jin army from the outside."
"In this way, we can attack from both inside and outside, catching the Jin soldiers off guard."
"As the saying goes, 'the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind'. This victory is entirely due to our prince's wisdom and strategy."
Lian Gui bowed deeply to the King of Yan with a flattering look on his face, and took the opportunity to flatter him fiercely: "Long live the King! You are so wise and powerful, and your power is feared by the world!"
Seeing this, the other generals were all beaming with joy, and they all stood up and saluted the King of Yan: "Your Majesty is extremely wise! Live a thousand years, a thousand thousand years!"
The King of Yan smiled slightly, secretly pleased with himself, but pretended to be calm on the surface. He glanced at Lian Gui indifferently, thinking that although this guy was a little too flattering, he was loyal after all, so he did not argue with him.
Then, the King of Yan raised his hand and waved, signaling: "Okay, no need to be polite, everyone, please sit down."
Upon hearing this, everyone returned to their original seats.
At this time, King Yan frowned and asked everyone seriously: "I believe everyone must have some doubts in their hearts. Why did I let Suo Wuyan go?"
Everyone nodded, indicating that they were indeed puzzled by the matter.
Lian Gui couldn't wait to interrupt and said, "Could it be that Your Majesty thinks that the mortise-stained rock still has some value?" After saying that, he squinted his eyes in a self-righteous manner.
King Yan nodded slightly to show his agreement, and then turned his gaze to Wen Xin who was standing on the side.
Wen Xin understood and quickly walked to the side, picked up a wooden box, and respectfully presented it to King Yan.
However, the King of Yan did not take over, but just shook his head and said: "It's okay, let you all take a look together."
Wen Xin nodded slightly when she heard that, then walked down the stairs holding the box.
Upon seeing this, several generals stepped forward and took the mysterious box from him.
When they carefully opened the lid, they were surprised to find the box was filled with a lot of letter paper.
King Yan opened his mouth to explain at the right time.
"It is precisely because of these letters that I had to leave the Mortise Rock behind!"
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned and looked puzzled.
So they began to pass the letters around, and after reading the contents, their faces became extremely ugly and their moods became increasingly heavy.
"This... this is really..."
General Sun's face turned pale and his lips trembled, but he was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to express his shock and anger.
It turned out that these letters were the secret correspondence between the emperor and Jiang Lan in the past two years.
This was something that King Yan specifically instructed Wen Xin to obtain secretly from Jiang Lan.
These letters only contain a few words, but they all contain murderous intent.
Most of them asked Jiang Lan to do everything possible to stop Prince Yan from attacking Dajin.
It would be best if the King of Yan could return defeated.
Especially the recent few letters, the tone became more and more urgent, even ordering Jiang Lan to defeat King Yan at any cost.
Even if it means sacrificing 300,000 soldiers, it would be worth it.
Seeing this, many soldiers felt extremely chilled.
At this moment, King Yan suddenly spoke.
"I guess there are still some of you who don't know yet."
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene fell into dead silence, and everyone turned their eyes to King Yan.
The King of Yan said solemnly, "Then this new emperor has murdered the King of Qi and the King of Liang!"
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like throwing a stone into the water, causing a thousand waves. Those who knew nothing about this matter before were filled with astonishment and spoke in disbelief.
"This... the new emperor actually..."
"Prince Liang and Prince Qi are the emperor's uncles..."
The King of Yan sighed deeply, as if his heart was filled with endless sadness and helplessness, and then he continued slowly.
"There is no doubt that this king is his next target."
"He is afraid that I will seize power and usurp the throne, so he wants to kill me and my brothers."
