The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding
Chapter 274: Victory from Tianyun City, Sima Cuo withdraws his troops
"There are 80,000 soldiers outside. You can select suitable soldiers by yourself and form 20,000 archers. What do you think?" Ye Feng looked at Huang Tong and continued to ask.
He knew very well that the 80,000 soldiers left behind by the three Wu brothers had good combat effectiveness. After disbanding these soldiers and reorganizing them, if the time was right and they could destroy the King of Nanyu or the King of Pingxi during the next inspection, then the Song Dynasty would have gotten rid of another worry.
"Thank you, Lord Zhenguo!"
Huang Tong's face was filled with excitement, and he could no longer contain his excitement. He had been living in hiding in Liuchang County for so many years, just waiting for this day to come.
"You go and choose. I'm looking forward to seeing your archers shine." Ye Feng waved at Huang Tong. He could naturally see Huang Tong's excitement, and signaled to him that he could go down and choose the soldiers.
"Thank you, Lord Zhen Guo!"
Huang Tong turned and walked towards the camp outside.
……
Tianyun City.
A smile spread across Zhang Tai's old face. He looked at Sima Cuo's army in the distance, which did not come to attack the city but instead retreated towards the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty.
"General Zhang... General Zhang, the Great Jin Dynasty has withdrawn its troops."
"The Great Jin Dynasty has withdrawn its troops. We have won a great victory."
"I never thought that Sima Cuo, the Minister of War of the Great Jin Dynasty, was so arrogant and claimed that he would take over our Tianyun City, but now he has run away in disgrace."
"It's all thanks to the Nine-Star Crossbow invented by Zhenguo Jun. It's so powerful that Sima Cuo couldn't make any progress for such a long time."
The many soldiers on the city wall cheered when they saw Sima Cuo leading tens of thousands of troops to support them and retreating towards the territory of the Jin Dynasty.
"General, I really don't want to accept this. If they didn't occupy the advantageous terrain and I don't know where they got the bows and crossbows from, the Song Dynasty's soldiers with their ugly heads would not be our opponents."
Sima Cuo rode on a warhorse, his expression somewhat embarrassed. When he left the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, he vowed to take back Tianyun City within half a month.
Now three months have passed, and not only has Tianyun City not been recaptured, but the 100,000-strong army they brought with them has been completely wiped out, and they have not even approached the gate of Tianyun City.
When Sima Cuo heard the deputy general's complaint, he said with a firm look, "We are not as skilled as them. If we lose, we will fight back in the future."
"I, Sima Cuo, have fought in countless wars, both large and small, throughout my life. I will surely flee twice as far as I can from today's humiliation."
The deputy general was puzzled and asked, "General, why did the court suddenly order us to withdraw?"
Sima Cuo hesitated for a moment, then said, "We, the Great Jin Dynasty, the Great Wei Dynasty, and the Western Shu Dynasty have reached an alliance. In the spring of next year, the Three Kingdoms will be divided into Song!"
"what!"
Upon hearing this, the deputy generals around were filled with joy. They also understood why the general was unwilling to withdraw his troops before, but now suddenly obeyed the court's order to withdraw his troops.
The three great dynasties attacked the Song Dynasty at the same time, and the beginning of spring of the following year would be the time when the Song Dynasty would be destroyed.
……
The Mansion of the Governor of Yanyun County.
Chang Sun Ji was sitting at his desk. When he heard his subordinates come to report that the army led by Sima Cuo had retreated and Tianyun City had won a great victory, his eyes narrowed slightly and he said, "Sima Cuo has always fought a war and will not stop until he wins. Why did he leave suddenly?"
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Tell General Zhangtai of Tianyun City and General Sun Biao of Dongyun City to come to the County Governor's Office for the meeting. If I am right, the enemy may have a conspiracy."
"You should also send someone to report the victory to the court and commend General Zhang and his soldiers. They defeated the army of Sima Cuo, the Minister of War of the Great Jin Dynasty, who had 100,000 soldiers and killed many enemies."
Although Chang Sunji was a civil servant, he arranged everything in an orderly manner. He was now the governor of Yanyun County. Ye Feng had entrusted him with such an important place, so he naturally could not disappoint Ye Feng's expectations.
"As ordered!"
The subordinate turned and left.
……
Jinling City.
"Good news from eight hundred miles away!"
"Good news from eight hundred miles away!"
"General Zhangtai has defeated Sima Cuo's army of 100,000 men from the Jin Dynasty. The enemy has retreated and our army has won a great victory!"
Along with the spy who brought the news, his voice echoed throughout the city of Jinling.
At that moment, countless people cheered and rejoiced.
They never expected that General Zhangtai would be able to defeat Sima Cuo, the Minister of War of the Jin Dynasty, and not only defend Tianyun City but also repel the enemy. It was truly a pleasant surprise.
In the court, Yu Shouren, the Minister of War, received the victory report, and his face was filled with smiles. He was not surprised. He knew in his heart that Zhangtai was able to defeat Sima Cuo because of the power of the Nine Star Crossbow, and the state king Ye Feng had already made arrangements.
As long as Zhang Tai does not act rashly and aggressively and defends Tianyun City with the Nine-Star Crossbow, the Song Dynasty can fight to support the war, while the Jin Dynasty is constantly consuming losses.
"General Zhangtai has made great contributions in defending the city and will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold. The rest of the soldiers will be rewarded according to the awards from the Ministry of War." Yu Shouren was also very clear that rewards would naturally be given for victories on the front line. He did not hesitate and directly conveyed the rewards from the Ministry of War and ordered the spy who brought the good news to take it back.
Li Linpu sat in the armchair, but his face looked unhappy. He was not interested in the good news from Zhangtai. He had been worried recently.
Judging from the time, Ye Feng should have inspected Xiaohe County by now. He has sent many people to investigate what the situation is, but has received no news.
"Report! Repay!"
At this time, a message came from outside the palace. It was sent by Ye Feng from Xiaohe County. Most of the officials in Xiaohe County were the confidants of the three Wu brothers, and most of them were killed.
Xiaohe County urgently needed dozens of officials before it could operate, so he naturally sent people to the court and asked the Ministry of Personnel to select officials for promotion.
As the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard, Xue Gui ordered his men to bring the messenger to the court. When the messenger arrived at the court, he shrank his neck slightly and was still a little nervous.
"I have been ordered to deliver the order of the King of the State: The three brothers including Wu Xiao, the governor of Xiaohe County, formed a clique for personal gain and intended to rebel. They have been executed!"
"All officials implicated in the case have been killed by me. Please ask the Ministry of Personnel to select knowledgeable people from all over the Song Dynasty and promote them to become the governor of Xiaohe County, as well as the mayor of Guiyun City and Baiyun City, and have them take up their posts immediately!"
Yue Teng walked forward and took the scroll from the person who brought the news. There was a flash of horror in his eyes, for he was very clear about Wu Xiao's strength.
Ye Feng was the sixth Grandmaster on the Divine Machine List of the Great Song Dynasty. It had only been a few days since he went to Xiaohe County, but he had already killed all of Wu Xiao and the others, uprooting them all. Isn't this speed too fast?
Click!
When Li Linpu heard this, he stood up with a gloomy face, and the teacup in his hand was crushed to pieces with a snap. That was his son-in-law, but now Ye Feng killed him without mercy.
He looked at the person who reported the news and said, "Since you came from Xiaohe County, Wu Xiao intends to rebel, but what about his wife Li Xiulian?"
