Chapter 648: I leave, you surrender
Xiang Ying sat in the yard blankly.
Floating snowflakes fell from the sky, turning the green tiles, red walls, and green mountains into white, but the small courtyard was still the same as before, with no trace of snowflakes. No stains are visible.
Because the snowflakes were floating down, they seemed to encounter some obstacles when they reached the sky above the small courtyard, and flew to both sides, making the snow outside the small courtyard extra thick than elsewhere.
No one can step into this small courtyard,
Once you get close, it's like a small forest beast intruding into the territory of the beast king. The shiver from deep in your heart subconsciously prevents you from taking another step forward.
When you step into the small courtyard, you are bound to be in danger of being shattered into pieces.
Xiang Wu died in battle.
The leader and backbone of the next generation of the Xiang family, Xiang Wu of the ninth grade of Xuanyuan, died on the battlefield. The enemy general who killed him was unknown.
Outside the small courtyard, Yan Cheng, who had turned into a snowman, looked anxious, pacing back and forth. His body was covered with snow, and a black circle was dripping from him on the ground.
Erdao Bridge, Qili Pagoda, and Sanlipu were all lost. Tens of thousands of enemy troops under the command of Kang Zhen were surrounding them from all directions. Tong'an County had become a turtle among men.
What worries Yan Cheng even more is that Kang Zhen also drove countless people from Tong'an County to come here.
After Xiang Ying formulated the strategy of defending Tong'an, in order to save strategic resources such as food, he expelled all except the useful young people. Now these people are back.
Yan Cheng could not imagine what kind of changes would occur when the soldiers in the city saw these people when they arrived outside Tong'an County.
Because those people outside the city are their relatives.
It's not impossible for Kang Zhen to drive these people to attack the city first.
In war, there is never any mercy.
The enemy's vanguard, Tan Ma, even arrogantly approached Tong'an County City.
What to do next?
Yan Cheng is extremely pessimistic.
That kind of despair was something Yan Cheng had never felt before during the decisive battle with He Qiku many years ago.
Because at that time, everyone in Dachu was united,
but now, they are divided.
The navy was defeated,
Danyang fell into Na Wei's hands,
Want to send reinforcements?
He just hates Xiang Ying for not dying, right?
There was a sudden coughing sound in the yard.
Yan Cheng was shaken, stopped and looked up into the courtyard.
Floating snowflakes fell into the yard.
Yan Cheng felt slightly relieved and quickly walked into the courtyard. Xiang Ying lowered his head and coughed, and snowflakes fell on his body. His body that looked a little rickety before was now straight again.
"General!" Yan Cheng bowed: "Please forgive me and accept the change!"
"If the earthen jar is not broken without leaving the well, the general will inevitably die on the battlefield, Wu'er and others Wrapped in horse leather and killed on the battlefield, this is not a disgrace to the Xiang family!" Xiang Ying said. "Send someone to find Kang Zhen and bring back Wu'er's body!"
"Yes!"
"Look at you, they have already arrived at the city?"
"The scouts on horseback have already arrived at the city. The vanguard is only more than thirty miles away from Tong'an County. The reason why they have not arrived is because their team which drove a large number of old Weak women and children!" Yan Cheng raised his head and looked at Xiang Ying: "General, the soldiers in the city are brave, and there are many relatives outside. If the enemy is allowed to arrive like this, I am afraid that the morale of the troops in the city will collapse immediately!"
"You! Do you think you can't hold on any longer?" Xiang Ying asked.
Yan Cheng swallowed with some difficulty, looked at Xiang Ying's face as calm as an ancient well, and said softly: "There are no troops outside that must be reinforced, and there is no city that must be defended inside. General, at home, at present The situation is tense , the chief assistant was already struggling in Danyang. Compared with the capital, Tong'an County was no longer important. Yan Cheng boldly asked the general to break out of the encirclement and abandon Tong'an County. "
Xiang Ying remained silent. .
"General, among the thirty-six counties of Chu, even without Tong'an, Yong'an, and Ruyin, there are still thirty-three counties left. Now the battle for hegemony between Ling Huye and Li Dachui in the Qin State is about to begin. Even though Jiang Qian the demon girl Occupying the land south of the Yangtze River, but unable to do anything to me "Can't we cause more harm to the DPRK?"
"General, as long as we can stabilize the situation in the DPRK and prevent chaos in the country, the fence will be strong. Wild dogs can't get in!" Yan Cheng said. "As long as you return to Danyang and join forces with the chief assistant, no matter whether it is literary or military, Danyang is not a place in the southwest after all. Even if Na Wei has soldiers and horses, it is not impossible to solve it."
"I would have known earlier. So, why bother in the first place? "Xiang Ying sighed: "I was wrong. Chen Yan was defeated at first, so I should have withdrawn immediately, and there would have been no tragic casualties!"
Thinking of Xiang Wu who died in battle, my nose felt sore and my eyes couldn't help but feel tired. Blurred.
But where does the medicine of regret come from in this world?
“It’s not the general’s fault!” Yan Cheng sighed: “Who would have thought that Li Dachui and Jiang Qian could give up Nanyang so resolutely, and who would have thought that Na Wei would be so frantic and brazenly withdraw his troops and return home for his own selfish gain. What? "It's powerful after all." Xiang Ying said, "I'm old!" General, a small setback cannot shake the overall situation, Li Da Hammer and the Witch have won this round, but they have only gained a foothold in this corner. They will wait until the general returns to Danyang to regain their strength and start over again."
Xiang Ying. After a moment of silence, he stood up, took a deep breath, raised his arms, and walked The snowflakes in the sky suddenly rolled up, forming a snow dragon in the air. I don't know how far above the sky, it exploded with a bang: "Even though I am very old, I still don't lack the courage to start all over again." Yan Cheng, I’m leaving!”
"I'm going to arrange a breakout immediately, right? General?" Yan Cheng said the words before he realized that the meaning of Xiang Ying's words seemed to be somewhat different from his own thoughts.
"I am leaving, not you!" Xiang Ying shook his head and said: "The large army cannot get out. Li Dachui will definitely keep you. He deliberately let Na Wei leave and surrounded me. In Tong'an County, they want to turn me into a loner so that I can't easily win the battle with Na Wei."
"Then what should we do?" Yan Cheng looked pale.
Xiang Ying put a hand on Yan Cheng's shoulder and said: "I can only wrong you. After I leave, you can lead the entire Anjun city to surrender to Kang Zhen!"
"What?" Yan Cheng exclaimed.
"If we can't hold on, we can't break out, so why bother struggling anymore? Let's wait until we can be useful and recover one day!" Xiang Ying patted Yan Cheng's shoulder, "Didn't you just persuade me to do it?" Do you have the courage to start over? Do you have the courage to endure the humiliation?"
Yan Cheng remained silent.
“Don’t worry about the slight reputation.” Xiang Ying said: “Even the military god Han Xin had his crotch humiliation in the past!”
