Chapter 327



Hanging on the top of Guangning City Wall is the tablet of Emperor Taizu, the founder of Dasheng.

Everyone knew that the tablet consisted of just a few words written on a piece of rag, but what was written on it was the posthumous title of the Chen family's ancestor after all. How could Chen Mi dare to go up to it and invite arrows and cannonballs in front of tens of thousands of people?

Chen Yu's hands holding the reins suddenly tightened, his knuckles crackled, his eyes became sinister and cruel, and finally, he actually laughed.

Shen Hexuan looked at the top of the city wall expressionlessly and said coldly, "Yan Sikong just loves to use these sneaky and cunning schemes."

Fu Zhanqing's eyes were shining with light, and he asked softly: "Teacher, do you have a way to crack it?"

"Not yet. However, Guangning's food and grass won't last for a few days, so there's no need to attack." Shen Hexuan said, "Your Highness, why not divide the troops to pursue Que Wang."

"It's too late." Chen Yu said coldly, "If he had led the troops, he would have succeeded by now."

"We can't just ignore it. It might help our army break out. Yan Sikong's move proves that there are indeed no soldiers left in the city. We don't have to worry about Feng Ye escaping."

Chen Yu was silent for a moment, then ordered his general to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to rush towards Huangshui.

On the top of the city wall, Xu Feng shouted, "The Chu army has divided its forces, divided its forces."

Yan Sikong said in a deep voice: "He will not attack the city for the time being, but he has sent troops to pursue General Que."

Liang Huiyong shook his head, his expression still solemn.

Feng Ye said: "At this time, it might be too late for them to go."

Yan Sikong nodded: "As long as he can capture the Chu army, he can return safely."

Everyone watched as Chen Wei gave the order and the Chu army withdrew.

Even though the enemy was repelled temporarily, no one dared to relax. After all, it was just a delaying tactic. The food and grass in Guangning City were not enough for even a month, and Chen Yu and Shen Hexuan must have known this.

——

At dusk, Yuan Nanyu returned. This battle was a great victory beyond everyone's expectations. With only 10,000 soldiers, he captured 3,000 Chu troops and 50,000 Jin soldiers in one fell swoop!

He suddenly attacked when both armies were badly hurt. The Chu army was attacked from both sides and was defeated instantly. The Jin soldiers were attacked by the Chu army when they were halfway across the river. Only a few of them escaped to the other side. Most of them died in the freezing water or were killed by the Huangshui River. The army lost its morale and fled thousands of miles. Tens of thousands of soldiers became like headless flies, fleeing separately and finally being defeated one by one.

Zhuoletai committed suicide by slashing his throat at the bank of the Huang River in hatred. This barbarian who had ambitioned to plunder the Central Plains all his life eventually defeated an army of 200,000 and died in a foreign land.

Feng Ye ordered his men to prepare a table of wine and food to welcome Yuan Nanyu. She Jun, who had just arranged for the martial arts people who would come to help in the battle, was also at the table.

Yan Sikong held Yuan Nanyu's shoulders, his eyes full of pride and admiration: "I knew that with you, this battle will be victorious!"

Yuan Nanyu said happily: "Fortunately, I have lived up to the expectations of the Wolf King and my second brother."

She Jun laughed and said, "For this victory, I will not go home until I am drunk tonight."

Feng Ye praised: "Quewang, you fought beautifully in this battle. Tell me about it in detail." He was really frustrated because his injuries had not healed yet and he couldn't even ride a horse.

Yuan Nanyu could not hide his pride when he spoke, "Fighting with swords and spears, killing enemies on the battlefield, what a thrill it is!"

"Good, good fight!" Yan Sikong couldn't help but clap his hands.

"Second brother, your brilliant plan on the city wall was also amazing." Yuan Nanyu said with great relief, "Chen Yi will definitely be so angry that he will jump to his feet."

"The plan to delay the troops is over." Yan Sikong poured wine for everyone one by one, "Come, let's drink today."

The four of them raised their glasses and drank together.

Feng Ye took the wine jug and filled it again.

At this time, there was a knock on the door from behind: "Wolf King, it's me, Xu Feng."

"Come in."

Xu Feng pushed the door open and walked in, bowing to each of them, and then said, "Wolf King, I'm here to ask for instructions on how to deal with the captives."

Feng Ye glanced at Yan Sikong and signaled him to make the decision.

Yuan Nanyu and She Jun also looked at Yan Sikong.

Yan Sikong stared at the golden jade wine cup that he was playing with between his fingers and said, "Keep an eye on the Chu army, they are still useful."

"yes."

"As for the Jin soldiers..." Yan Sikong's eyes turned cold, "There is no surplus food in the city, how can we feed the thieves...kill them." After saying that, he drank the wine in the cup.

"yes."

In one word, 50,000 Jin soldiers were killed and captured overnight.

After 21 years, the Guangning Defense War ended in victory again, but the few records in history books may be as blood-stained as rivers.

——

Three days later, Feng Ye, along with Yan Sikong and Yuan Nanyu, will meet Chen Yi and Shen Hexuan at the foot of Guangning City.

The king will eventually see the king.

And this side is destined to change the entire country.

The city gates were wide open, and Feng Ye rode the fiery red Tianshan Horse King and stepped out first, followed closely by Yan Sikong and Yuan Nanyu. The Feng family army marched out in an orderly manner and deployed their troops under the city of Guangning.

Chen Yu and Shen Hexuan also slowly approached surrounded by the army. After sending the two men to the outside of Guangning City, they retreated in a well-trained manner.

Feng Ye and his two companions rode their horses forward and came in front of Chen Yu and Shen Hexuan.

Finally, they finally met!

The five people had different expressions and each had their own hidden agenda. They stood facing each other, and no one spoke for a while.

Looking back over the past ten years, the number of grievances between them is too numerous to count and can never be resolved.

Finally, it was Chen Yu who spoke first. He scanned Feng Ye, Yan Sikong, and Yuan Nanyu one by one with his sharp and deep eyes, and finally stopped at Feng Ye's face: "I heard that the Wolf King was seriously injured by an arrow. Now it seems that he will not die for the time being."

Feng Ye said in a deep voice: "I was born to change the world. King Yanluo didn't dare to accept me, which disappointed King Chu."

Chen Yu smiled coldly and looked at Yan Sikong again: "Sir, how are you?"

Yan Sikong said calmly: "I dare not say that he is fine, but the King of Chu is getting more and more proud."

"I also want to thank you for the last lesson you gave me, sir." Chen Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of vicious hatred, "You put me in a desperate situation and I will survive."

"Once a teacher, always a teacher." Yan Sikong looked at Chen Yu, trying to find a trace of the young man who relied on and trusted him in the past on that handsome face, but to no avail.

"I am soft-hearted towards you." Chen Yu said coldly, "Everything you taught me is enough for me to benefit from for the rest of my life."

Yan Sikong nodded slightly. He couldn't help sighing in his heart, but he didn't regret it.

Finally, Chen Yi's gaze fell on Yuan Nanyu's face.

The two of them looked at each other from a distance. Yuan Nanyu's eyes were cold and murderous, but Chen Yi smiled complacently and contemptuously, and there was a hint of cruelty in the curve of his lips.

Shen Hexuan said, "I think there is no need to talk about the past." He glanced at Yan Sikong and said, "You wrote to request this meeting. Are you here to surrender?"

Yan Sikong smiled slightly: "Does Lord Shen like the painting I gave you?"

"I like it." Shen Hexuan replied, "Thank you."

"Lord Shen has a good student, who I envy." Yan Sikong said again.

"I'm not here to tell you this." Shen Hexuan said coldly.

Yan Sikong smiled and shook his head: "This may be the last time we meet in this life. It's rare to meet a chess master. I am really reluctant to let you go."

Shen Hexuan was stunned and remained silent for a moment.

Yan Sikong took a deep breath and looked at Feng Ye.

Feng Ye obviously didn't intend to say any more nonsense. He looked at Chen Yi arrogantly, not hiding the disgust and murderous intent in his eyes: "Chen Yi, from the moment I decided to stay in Liaodong, you won. You can get what you want, but you have to give me what I want first."

"What do you want?" Chen Yu held the reins tightly.

"From the northwest to the northeast, from Qianzhou, Datong, Xuanhua to Liaoning." Feng Ye said without hesitation, "I want the entire northern border!"
