Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 75 Who is Meng Jiangnu crying for? 26

Now that they were in the wine shop, who could just sit there and listen to storytelling? They would definitely order some food, such as rice wine or white wine, side dishes, dried fruits, dried meat, etc., which were served one dish after another. The waiter ran so fast that his shoes hit the back of his head.

With the experience of the first time, Qi Dashan was much more at ease when he appeared on stage again.

He stood in front of the screen, smiled and bowed to everyone, "Thank you all for coming, thank you, thank you! Without further ado, I will start my speech right away!"

Just when the soldiers felt that Zhou was running out of steam and were retreating back to their old nests, Zhou joined forces with Canglan to suddenly attack Qin.

Canglan State is a very small country that has been trying to survive in the gap between the two major countries of Zhou and Qin.

But for some reason they were persuaded by the State of Zhou and they joined forces to capture Taiyin Mountain and get a share of the pie.

This time the attack was very fierce. The Canglan Kingdom, which had always been ignored by the Qin State, was like a cunning rabbit. Under the cover of the Zhou State’s army, it broke through our country’s defense line and hid in the Taiyin Mountain covered with thick snow.

The Qin army was trapped by the Zhou soldiers and was unable to pursue the Canglan Army that broke through the first line of defense and hid in Taiyin Mountain.

As soon as the Cang Lan Army disappeared completely, the Zhou soldiers retreated immediately.

General Xiao sent people to guard the foot of Taiyin Mountain. The mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and he did not want to waste extra troops to search the mountain.

But two days had passed, and not a single Blue Army soldier had come down the mountain. Something was wrong.

The Zhou army went to great lengths to cover the Canglan Army as they broke through their defenses, but they only hid in Taiyin Mountain, instead of pursuing the victory to break through their second line of defense and head straight for Taiyin Town?

This is very wrong.

Taiyin Mountain is not a single mountain, but a series of rolling mountains. The road to the mountain has been covered by heavy snow for several days.

Why did so many people hide in there without food or water?

Just when General Xiao was at a loss, someone came running from behind.

They are the defenders of Taiyin City.

The blood-covered soldier fell off his horse before he could get close to General Xiao's chariot. He brought very bad news.

Some people set fires in various places in the city at night, and when their people were dispersed to put out the fires, a group of people ambushed the guards at the city gates.

The city gate was lost and an elite army was let in.

The city gates were occupied by the enemy, who began to massacre people inside the city.

"General, please return to the city and save the people. The massacre started last night. In order for me to escape and report to the general, all my soldiers were killed."

Captain Meng, who was standing next to General Xiao, took a step forward and discovered that this man was none other than the seriously injured centurion who had led his troops to Taiyin Mountain to suppress bandits and in the end was the only one alive.

At this moment, the centurion died completely in front of him.

"General?" Captain Meng clasped his fists and asked for instructions. The enemy was too cunning.

Should they withdraw their troops to rescue the people in the city or stay at the border to resist the invasion of the Zhou State?

Qi Dashan paused for a moment, smiled bitterly and shook his head, as if he was thinking of the tragic battle. Qi Dashan picked up the small teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it in one gulp like drinking wine.

He suppressed the emotions in his heart, and when he looked up, he saw many pairs of eyes looking straight at him.

They were waiting for him to continue, but they didn't rush him.

Qi Dashan put down his teacup and continued speaking.

General Xiao closed the centurion's eyes, stood up and ordered a retreat back to the city.

The situation on the front line, which was originally about to advance, was suddenly reversed. General Xiao ordered a withdrawal. The morale of the Zhou army soared, and their strategy began to work.

This was the first time that General Xiao gave up the Taiyin Mountain where he was stationed since he became the general guarding the border. Captain Meng was unwilling to accept this, and he asked the general again whether he really wanted to withdraw his troops.

If they could take advantage of the pursuit to defeat the retreating Zhou army, then the small group of rebellious enemy troops that broke into Taiyin City from behind would naturally be overwhelmed and would not be able to escape the fate of being killed.

Only one or two out of ten people in the city may survive.

This is the result that Zhou and Canglan wanted by attacking from both sides.

General Xiao said: "Our duty as a border guard is to protect the people in the rear. If we ignore the people for the sake of immediate victory, what will be left for us in the end is just an empty city. What is the meaning of our victory?"

Captain Meng was silent.

Before General Xiao led his troops back to support Taiyin City, Captain Meng received another secret order. He left the team alone and returned to the East Camp.

General Xiao's vanguard arrived at the gate of Taiyin City, and what greeted them was the tightly closed tall city gate and a dense rain of arrows!

The enemy occupied the gates and used their weapons against them.

Taiyin City is the last city on the border closest to the Zhou State. Years of war have made the city walls and gates particularly solid.

Fearing the innocent people in the city, they were unable to attack by force. For a moment, General Xiao's army was unable to move forward.

At this time, news came from the rear of the army that the Zhou army had crossed the Taiyin Mountain area and was approaching Taiyin City in a pincer attack.

General Xiao gripped the sword tighter in his hand. He had anticipated the situation at this moment since he gave the order to retreat.

I just didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Who would believe that this was not premeditated?

General Xiao secretly vowed to cut these moles, who were always thinking about the food and land of other countries, into pieces, so that they would die in a foreign country and would not be able to return home.

Captain Meng returned ahead of the Zhou army. His horse was stopped in front of General Xiao, and a skinny soldier was thrown off the horse's back.

The man's arm was still bleeding, and he was thrown from the horse to the ground without making a sound.

Captain Meng dismounted, walked up to the man, bent down and grabbed the man's hair, forcing him to raise his head.

It turned out to be a long-haired woman wearing ill-fitting soldier uniform.

Several people around General Xiao recognized her.

It’s Cai Qing.

"Take her to the city gate and let her bleed. When the city gate is opened, we will kill her."

"Yes!" Captain Meng angrily dragged the man and handed him over to his subordinates.

Captain Meng returned to General Xiao and reported everything he saw when he returned to the East Camp.

Captain Meng responded to General Xiao's secret order and went back to bring Cai Qing to the front of the battle. Although he didn't quite understand why the two sides had to capture a woman for the battle, he intuitively felt that there was something wrong with Cai Qing because of his absolute trust and understanding of General Xiao.

When he returned to the East Camp, he looked around but couldn't find Cai Qing, who usually liked to hang around the big tent. Finally, he caught Cai Qing, who was wearing a soldier's uniform and acting sneakily, in the grain camp.

Cai Qing, who was discovered, wanted to argue at first, but Captain Meng was not the kind of person who would easily believe what others said. No one's words were as effective as General Xiao's orders.

Cai Qing tried to resist but was mercilessly slashed by Captain Meng. Captain Meng had confirmed that Cai Qing was a spy, so he knocked her unconscious and threw her on his horse before heading back.
