Chapter 109 The ever-changing situation
…
Compared with the fierce fighting on the battlefield over there, Ji Yan and Haihun's army were at peace with each other. Ji Yan led an army of 200,000 on the border of Haihun, and although Haihun's army also gathered 20
Wan Dajun confronted them, but neither army had the intention to take the lead.
In the Chinese army's tent, Ji Yan and Xiahou Wenyuan were also playing chess calmly. Looking at the situation on the chessboard, Xiahou Wenyuan's white piece had the advantage. However, the shapes of the two were completely opposite. The white piece had already
Xiahou Wenyuan, who was completely in the upper hand, had a frown on his face. Ji Yan, who was already showing signs of decline, looked relaxed.
With a "pop", Ji Yan dropped a chess piece, looked at Xiahou Wenyuan and laughed loudly: "Slay the dragon, sir, you lost."
"Master Hou is very skilled in chess, but Xiahou Gan was defeated." Xiahou Wenyuan said, cupping his hands.
"Where... I was just lucky. I took advantage of my husband's unpreparedness and secretly planned to slay the dragon..." Ji Yan said with a smile while picking up the chess pieces.
Seeing that Xiahou Wenyuan didn't respond to her, Ji Yan couldn't help but be startled. She raised her head and saw Xiahou Wenyuan's expression. Ji Yan couldn't help but be puzzled and asked: "Sir, he just played the game, as if he was absent-minded. Could it be that Mr.
What's on your mind?"
Xiahou Wenyuan looked at Ji Yan and said, "I don't know why? Thinking about the war ahead, I feel a little uneasy..."
"What did I think? It turns out to be this." Ji Yan said with a smile: "Sir, you are worrying too much. We are blocking Haihun's army here. If Liu Yiyong was not a fool? He would never send troops at this time.
.And the spies have just come to report that there is no movement in the two armies of the Blood Phoenix and the Mad Tiger on the Beiyu Army side. Although the Nanzhao Army plus the Miaojiang Army have 900,000 people, I, Xilie, Xuanping, and Wei Qi
, my second uncle has gathered a total of 800,000 troops this time. No matter how you look at it, we are bound to win this time. I don't think there will be good news from my second uncle in a few days..."
"I hope so!" Xiahou Wenyuan whispered, but the sadness on his brows did not disappear.
At this moment, a messenger came in and reported: "Report... to the Marquis, the marshal has sent a messenger."
"Oh. It seems that the good news will come sooner than I expected..." Ji Yan said with a smile.
After Xiahou Wenyuan heard the news, his brows furrowed even more.
Soon, there was the sound of rapid footsteps. Then a messenger rushed into the camp.
Seeing his appearance, Ji Yan's expression also changed suddenly. It was all just because the messenger was not as brightly dressed and energetic as he imagined. Let's not say that he was dusty. Instead, he was in ragged clothes and there were blood stains on his body.
"Report, report to the Marquis, the marshal is asking for help urgently..." The messenger only had time to say these words before he fainted.
Fortunately, he carried Ji Wan's autographed letter. After reading the letter, Ji Yan's face changed suddenly and she almost lost her balance. Upon seeing this, Xiahou Wenyuan quickly took the letter from Ji Yan's hand and waited for him
After reading it, his expression suddenly changed. Because, the battle that I thought was a sure win turned out to be reversed. It turned out that just when the Xi Lie Army was waiting in great interest, and Wei Qi Army flanked the Nan Zhao Army on both sides.
However, Wei Qijun's 300,000-strong army defected on the battlefield and fought towards the Xilie Army... With Wei Qijun's defection, the overall strength of Nanzhao Army increased from 600,000 to 900,000 in an instant. On the contrary, I thought there would be
The Xi Lie Army, which had an army of 800,000, dropped sharply to 500,000.
, the Xi Lie army also instantly changed from hunters to prey. At this time, the half million Xi Lie army was actually in prison. They had to struggle to support themselves and turned to Ji Yuan for help.
"Wrong, we were all wrong. It turns out that the old thief Wu Kuang relies on not the Hai Hun Army we thought, but the Wei Qi Army we thought was the most unlikely..." Ji Yan said in a daze, and couldn't help but feel aroused on her face.
With a hint of deep resentment, he cursed: "This old man Wei Qihou deceived me so hard. In order to gain my trust, he was even willing to sacrifice his own daughter..."
"Master Marquis, this is not the time to talk about this. Now all our troops in Xi Lie are in trouble. The most urgent task is, should we save them or not?" Xiahou Wenyuan said calmly.
"Sir, what do you mean? Those are all my sons, Xi Lie, how can I not save them?" Ji Yan turned her head and said angrily.
"Master Hou, calm down, please listen to Xiahou finish his words first." Xiahou Wenyuan said.
"Say." Ji Yan scolded angrily.
Hearing this, Xia Hou glanced at Ji Yan and said quickly: "Wu Kuang, this old thief, is really good at calculating... But right now, Nan Zhao's military strength has soared to 900,000. If we want to save us, we must have an army of 400,000. Just
With the current army of 200,000, even if we go to rescue it, it will be like a wolf entering the tiger's mouth..."
"The Beiyu Army... turn to the Beiyu Army for help." Ji Yan said in a messy tone: "Based on time, Mu Qiuhuang should have captured Fengling City by now, and he needs to get the antidote for the little sister. Not to mention
He said that the old thief Wu Kuang threatened him, but given the current situation, he would never watch the Nanzhao army destroy Xi Lie and then become the sole leader of the family..."
"Master Marquis, calm down." Xiahou Wenyuan shouted to stop Ji Yan, and then said: "Even if the Beiyu Army is willing to come to the rescue, water from far away can't quench the thirst for near..."
"Then what do you mean? Are you saying that if you don't save me, let the hundreds of thousands of Xi Lie troops in front of me be wiped out?" Ji Yan retorted angrily.
"Right now, it seems that this is the only way." Xiahou Wenyuan's eyes showed a trace of sternness.
Before Ji Yan could get angry, Xiahou Wenyuan quickly explained: "At the moment, the situation ahead cannot be reversed without an army of 400,000 people. And we only have the 200,000 Xuanping troops in our hands now. The most urgent task at the moment is to take advantage of Gongyang.
Before Tian'a knew about this, he removed Gongyang Tian'a and took the 200,000 troops as his own. Then we returned to Xilie in order to seek a comeback. Judging from the current situation, the Beiyu Army and the Nanzhao Army will next
There must be a battle between them. As long as they fight together, Beiyu will definitely seek our help. At that time, we will have a chance. Even if we will eventually miss the position of the Nine-Five Supreme, but with these 200,000 troops,
As well as the marriage relationship between the Marquis and Mu Qiuhuang, it should not be a problem to find a good future..."
"In-law relationship? Nowadays, the most unreliable relationship in the world is this fucking in-law relationship..." When Ji Yan heard Xiahou Wenyuan mention this, he couldn't help but curse. Because, he also thought of the relationship between him and Wei Qihou.
relationship between marriages.
"Master Hou, please calm down." Xiahou Wenyuan looked at him and said, "This is the only choice at the moment. From the fact that Mu Qiuhuang is willing to commit regicide for Miss Ji, we can see that he is different from Wei Qihou..."
"Four hundred thousand! Including the 100,000 Wei Qi's army, it's a total of 500,000 troops! Not to mention, my uncle is still inside, do you want me to watch them die?"
"Please, Lord Marquis, please don't act out of anger." Xia Hou Wenyuan said again.
The second time persuaded: "I still said what I just said, if you want to rescue, you must have an army of 400,000. If I only have 200,000, even if I go, it will be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth..."
After Ji Yan heard this, she fell into deep thought. After the expression on her face changed several times, reason finally defeated impulse. She looked at Xiahou Wenyuan and said with great difficulty: "Just as you said..."
"Report, Haihun Marquis Liu Yiyong is asking for an audience alone." At this moment, another messenger came quickly to report.
"What is he doing here?" Ji Yan asked suspiciously.
When Xiahou Wenyuan heard this, his face lit up, and he rushed to the ordering soldiers and said: "Please come quickly."
Then, he looked at Ji Yan and said, "Master Hou, it's better to meet him first. Maybe there will be a turn for the better."
Not long after, Liu Yiyong walked in alone, looked at Ji Yan and said, "I've met Brother Ji."
"Brother Liu, are you okay?" Ji Yan also returned the greeting.
Liu Yiyong smiled and said: "Brother Ji, this 200,000-strong army is at the door of my house, but I can't eat or sleep..."
"I'm afraid Brother Liu has misunderstood." Ji Yan looked at Liu Yiyong and said, "I'm not targeting Brother Liu. However, since Brother Liu has come here because of this matter, I am willing to have a good sleep for Brother Liu. Immediately
Retreat."
Liu Yiyong looked at Ji Yan and said with a half-smile, "What? I came here to visit Brother Ji on purpose, but Brother Ji didn't even greet me with a drink?"
Ji Yan smiled slightly and said, "I was negligent. Brother Liu, please sit down."
"Come here, serve tea." Ji Yan ordered.
Looking at the tea in front of him, Liu Yiyong smiled slightly and said: "Brother Ji is so elegant and courageous. The battle ahead is so anxious, how can Brother Ji still be in such a mood? I really admire you."
When Ji Yan heard this, her expression changed, she looked at Liu Yiyong and said, "What is Mr. Liu doing here? You might as well open the skylight and speak frankly!"
"Okay, since Brother Ji is quick to talk, I won't hide it anymore." Liu Yiyong looked at Ji Yan and said with a smile: "I have eyes and ears in the front, and I know that the Xi Lie army in front of Brother Ji is deep.
Trapped in jail. If we want to rescue him, we must have an army of 400,000..."
"If Brother Liu wants to come and ridicule me, I don't think it's necessary." Ji Yan said angrily and dissatisfied.
"Brother Ji is joking. If I wanted to come and ridicule Brother Ji, I wouldn't come alone." Liu Yiyong said.
"What do you mean?" Ji Yan asked.
"If I say, I came here specifically to deliver carbon in the snow. I wonder what Brother Ji thinks?" Liu Yiyong looked at Ji Yan and said with a smile: "Brother Ji has an army of 200,000 here, plus me
Haihun has an army of 200,000, which is exactly 400,000. We can easily break the siege in front of us."
Ji Yan's expression changed when she heard this, she glanced at Xiahou Wenyuan, then turned to Liu Yiyong and said, "What do you want?"
"Okay. Brother Ji is happy, so I will make it clear." Liu Yiyong looked at Ji Yan and said: "I, the Marquis of Haihun, know that I have no chance to win the supreme position. Therefore, I am willing to put my hope in Brother Ji.
.I only hope that after Brother Ji aspires to the supreme position in the future, our Haihunhou Mansion can still maintain its current situation..."
