"Sir! A letter from Duzhou!"
Another report came from outside, and Ye Yunfeng's heart moved, "Let me see it."
The soldiers hurriedly handed over the letter, on which was clearly written "From Feng Cheng himself".
The soldiers defending the city all knew that Feng Cheng was in Duzhou. This letter...
Ye Yunfeng had a guess in his mind, and when he opened it and saw the handwriting on it for the first time, he laughed.
"It's a handwritten letter from General Feng."
Feng Cheng was experienced. When he saw the battle situation in Pingshui Bay that day, although he had not met Ye Yunfeng, he had already guessed that it was him.
At the beginning of this letter, it was clearly written - Afeng!
Feng Cheng first asked him if he was okay and how he was feeling, and then told him all about the recent situation in Duzhou to reassure him.
After reading the letter, Ye Yunfeng's heart finally settled down.
"The Nanhu group of stragglers who were responsible for diverting attention have also been completely wiped out. General Feng has returned to Duzhou and re-strengthened the defense line."
Ye Yunfeng saw the end and raised his eyebrows.
"Besides, he has already contacted King Yannan."
"real!?"
Several soldiers became excited when they heard this.
"Doesn't that mean that reinforcements will arrive soon?"
Although they inflicted heavy damage on Nanhu in Pingshui Bay, this action was bound to provoke a more intense counterattack.
If Nan Hu Ju goes all out for revenge and his army approaches the border, the current border defense forces will be far from enough.
Ye Yunfeng had told them before that they were able to win the battle of Pingshui Bay easily because they had the advantage of time, place and people.
But this trick can only be used once.
If we fight again in the future, we will still have to fight head-on.
"That should be it." Ye Yunfeng read the letter again from beginning to end and thought for a moment. "It would be best if they could come, but we also need to be on standby at all times. The Nanhu side should respond soon. Even if we can't wait for reinforcements, we have to hold on."
The soldiers looked solemn.
"yes!"
…
"General, how do you think Nan Hu will deal with Shui Xingqiu this time?"
Feng Chengzheng led a group of trusted generals to gather in front of the sand table to review the situation. They had just deduced the general situation of the Pingshui Bay Battle. While everyone was sighing, they also remembered the source of this disaster.
"He caused Nanhu to suffer a huge loss this time. Tuoba Shan will definitely not let him off easily, right? Otherwise, how can we explain it?"
"That's right! If he hadn't secretly instigated it, how could so many things happen?"
"It's hard to say. Shui Xingqiu has always been eloquent and cunning, otherwise he wouldn't have reached his current position in such a short time. If Tuoba Shan falls for his tricks again, then..."
Feng Cheng listened and fell into deep thought.
Although he has contacted King Yan Nan and Ye Yunfeng, the situation is still not optimistic.
Needless to say, it was already difficult for Ye Yunfeng to defend Xicheng, and it was impossible for him to dispatch troops for support.
King Nan of Yan was also locked in a fierce battle with the rebels. Even if he could spare some troops, he would have to stay in the army and it was impossible for him to come in person.
The biggest destabilizing factor is indeed Shui Xingqiu.
If it were someone else, he wouldn't take it to heart, but this Shui Xingqiu...
Just as everyone was arguing, soldiers suddenly knocked on the door.
"General, we have a visitor!"
guest?
Everyone was stunned and looked at Feng Cheng.
How could there be guests coming at this time?
Feng Cheng was also stunned. His first reaction was that Ye Yunfeng had arrived! But the next second he shook his head.
It's impossible. Ye Yunfeng is now guarding Xicheng. No matter how you think about it, it is impossible for him to choose to come here at this time.
He stood up, "Who—"
"Uncle Feng!"
A clear voice was heard, and Princess Qinyang strode in.
"Qinyang?!" Feng Cheng was surprised and delighted, "Why are you here?"
Princess Qinyang tilted her head and smiled, "Why can't I come? I heard that the southwest has been very lively recently, and I was itching to go, so I asked His Majesty for permission and came here!"
Feng Cheng hurried to greet her, with countless guesses in his mind, but the first question he asked was -
"Does your father know?"
Feng Cheng was not surprised that Xiao Chengqi let her come, but at such a critical juncture, King Yannan might not be willing to let her take risks again.
As expected, Princess Qinyang coughed, looking a little guilty, "I was just planning to borrow your pen and ink to write a letter to my father."
Feng Cheng: “…”
He was suddenly overwhelmed.
"The border is dangerous, and you just came here alone?! This—"
"How could that be?" Princess Qinyang said firmly, "Uncle Feng, do you think I'm still as impulsive as before? I came here with Master Xun this time!"
"Master Xun?" Feng Cheng was stunned for a moment, a little bit unbelieving, "You mean..."
"Of course it's Master Xun who helped save Longcheng." Princess Qinyang turned around and said with a smile, "Why don't you invite him in?"
From her words, it seemed as if she had already treated this place as her territory.
Everyone looked out the door.
Others may not know who this Master Xun is, but they have been at the border for a long time, and after the Battle of Longcheng, they naturally heard of his name.
Feng Cheng was also very happy.
"Seriously? Come on!"
He and Ye Yunfeng have a very close relationship, so naturally he knows more about Xun Cheng's key role in this.
Originally, he was just an ordinary, unknown person, but everything that happened later revealed that he was extraordinary.
Soon, Long Jiu pushed Xun Cheng in.
Feng Cheng stepped forward immediately, "Master Xun, I have long heard of your great name!"
Xun Cheng smiled and said, "I am in poor health. If I have been disrespectful, I hope General Feng will forgive me."
"where!"
Feng Cheng laughed heartily.
"Master Xun is such a great man! We are so delighted to have you here!"
His words were generous and polite, without any awkwardness or restraint of a first meeting.
Xun Cheng's gaze fell on the sand table behind him. "Everyone, this is... it seems I am disturbing you."
"Ah—no!" Xun Cheng shook his head, but turned sideways to let him see more clearly. "We were just reviewing the battle of Pingshui Bay. We are also planning to adjust the city defenses to resist foreign enemies."
He paused, "I heard that Master Xun is quite familiar with these border cities. Could you please give me some pointers?"
Everyone was shocked, "General?"
How could such a secret be told to an outsider so easily?
Feng Cheng had his own plans.
Before Ye Yunfeng led his troops to Longcheng, he showed him the city defense map.
As expected, that thing came from the hand of the person in front of me!
How could a person with disabled legs get such a thing if he didn't have some real skills?
Feng Cheng didn't care how Xun Cheng did it, what he wanted was Xun Cheng's help!
There was also a hint of surprise in Xun Cheng's eyes.
"I?"
"good!"
Feng Cheng nodded with a sincere expression.
Xun Cheng paused, his eyes falling to the side.
"Speaking of which, Princess Qinyang probably knows much more about this than I do. Why don't you just ask her directly, General Feng?" (End of this chapter)
