Chapter 248 The father-in-law looks at his son-in-law, and the more he looks at him, the more he likes him!
On a local battlefield where thousands of troops can only be deployed on a small scale, there is no battle formation that a strong general with dozens of elite soldiers cannot break!
If so, add one more person!
Even though this Chu army is composed of the most elite palace guards, even though there are many members of the Chu royal family in this Chu army, they have practiced martial arts since childhood, are good at fighting, and their combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the clan soldiers.
But who are their opponents?
Under the protection of hundreds of soldiers, Ying Chengyu broke through the Chu army's formation from the weak point on the side and drove straight in along the gap.
After the Chu army's formation was pulled out of the gap by Ying Chenglong, Su Jiao led his troops to attack without hesitation.
Two elite soldiers, led by two fierce generals, fiercely penetrated the Chu army's formation from the front and side.
In just a quarter of an hour, this elite soldier that Li Yuan had placed high hopes on collapsed!
Looking at the guards whose formation collapsed and were slaughtered by the Qin army, Li Yuan’s hands were trembling: “How could this be! How could this be so!”
This elite soldier is the family property left by King Chu Kaolie to King Han of Chu.
This is also the trump card that allowed King Chu Han to protect himself when surrounded by clans.
In the end, he was defeated just like that? !
Li Yuan cannot accept it!
But Li Yuan had to accept it.
Taking a deep breath, suppressing the fear in his heart, Li Yuan shouted loudly: "Order!"
"Jing's troops rushed to the east city to stop the enemy, and the guards retreated to regroup!"
>At the same time, the northern wall of Shouchun City.
Jingli and Jingpo did not command their soldiers to resist the Qin army, but looked at the city with their hands behind their backs like old men walking around, smiling.
There, Ying Chengyu holds a halberd in his hand, his blood-stained armor is unstoppable!
Jing Li couldn't help but nodded repeatedly: "Da Shan! This thrust was as sharp and sharp as thunder!"
"Cai! Even in the depths of the enemy formation, he was observing the battle situation and ordering all units to cooperate at any time. He was worthy of being a great general in the world! "
"This... roll over and sweep your legs with your halberd, although it may seem unsightly, but it solves an urgent need! This is what a wise general should do!"
During the battle of Anling City, the people of the Jing clan wished they could kill Ying Chengyu.
But now, the people of the Jing clan’s mentality towards Ying Chengyu has changed.
Since you can't beat him, let's get relatives!
As long as the relationship is good, you will never be showered with gold again!
Jingpo also had an aunt's smile on his face: "The patriarch has done a good thing after all."
"Such a general will be the Jing family's son-in-law!"
Jingli said enviously: "Brother Po is so lucky!"
Jingpo is Jingchou's eldest son.
Although I haven’t decided which Jingpo daughter I want to marry, since I want to marry my granddaughter, I have to choose one of Jingpo’s daughters.
Jing Po laughed heartily: "Where is it?"
"The future of my daughter depends on her own destiny!"
Although Jing's daughter only went to give Ying Chengyu became a concubine, but no one in the Jing clan paid attention to these details.
When Queen Mother Huayang first married into Da Qin, she was just a concubine of Lord An Guo.
But with Chu Nu's skill, Queen Mother Huayang won the love of Lord An Guo.
As King An Guo succeeded to the throne as King Xiaowen, Queen Mother Huayang also became the Queen of Qin.
Today, Jing’s daughter is just Ying Chengyun’s concubine, maybe she will become Ying Chengyun’s wife tomorrow!
So many members of the Jing clan are looking forward to the day when Ying Chengxuan will officially become the Jing clan’s son-in-law!
Just when Jingli and Jingpo were looking at Ying Chengyu like they were looking at their son-in-law, the messengers galloped over on their horses: "Send your order, Yin Ling!"
"Jing's troops immediately rushed to the east city to stop the enemy. There must be no Wrong!"
Jing Li frowned: "Please report back to Ling Yin, Jing is incompetent!"
"Even if Jing goes to the city to resist, he can't stop the Qin army!"
The Jing family has reached a cooperation with Ying Chengyu, but Jing Li is really unwilling to break the contract and let the Jing family's private soldiers fight to the death for King Chu.
Jingli is still waiting to become Ying Chengyu’s relative!
The voice of the messenger was still solemn: "This is the general's order!"
"Commanders, please obey the order immediately!"
Jingpo bent down to pick it up from the ground. He picked up a Qin Army crossbow arrow, silently stepped forward, suddenly raised it, and pierced the neck of the ordering soldier with the arrow in his hand!
"You..."
The messenger was shocked and frightened and wanted to shout, but Jingpo covered his mouth with his hand.
"Shh~" Jingpo said warmly: "It won't hurt soon."
At the same time as Jingpo took action, Jingpo's soldiers also took action together, killing the remaining four order soldiers. Assassinate together!
When he could no longer feel the messenger's breath, Jingpo threw the corpse of the messenger down the city wall.
Jing Li whispered in shock: "Brother Po, are you crazy?"
"Killing the messenger is a capital crime!"
Jing Po glanced at Jing Li in surprise: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"What the messenger? Brother didn't see it at all! "
"Maybe he was killed by the Qin army's arrows on the road. After all, the Qin army was so brave!"
Jing Li was slightly startled, then smiled and nodded: "Not bad, what? Messenger? ”
"We didn't even see it!"
"But there may be messengers coming to convey the general's orders later. How should we respond?"
Jingli's meaning was very clear.
You killed this batch of messengers, but what about the next batch?
If two batches of messengers died in a row, Li Yuan would definitely come in person.
How should we explain it then?
Jingpo did not answer Jingli, but shouted loudly: "People! Soldiers!"
"The Qin army has broken through the city wall, Shouchun City is in danger."
"Shouchun may fall, but the king must not make any mistakes!"
"Jing's Paoze, follow this general to kill Shouchun Palace, and escort the king out of the city!"
Jingpo stepped on the city wall, raised his sword high, and roared at the top of his lungs: "Fight to the death for the king!"
Before the war began, King Chu bravely captured the king with a heavy reward and his promise to reward him regardless of his status and merit. The hearts of all Jing's private soldiers.
At the current stage, King Chu Han's status in the hearts of Jing's private soldiers can be described as supreme!
So Jingpo's words completely penetrated into the hearts of the private soldiers.
So what if Shouchun City fell?
Anyway, Shouchun City has only been designated as the national capital for four years, so it would not hurt at all to change it.
But such a good king is the only one in hundreds of years.
Such a great king must not make any mistakes.
Otherwise, who will fulfill the pre-war promise?
Who will help these people stand up?
More than ten thousand private soldiers of the Jing family shouted together: "Fight to the death for the king!"
There is no need for the generals to urge them.
All Jing's private soldiers ran down the city wall as fast as they could and rushed towards Shouchun Palace.
Looking at the private soldiers who were full of fighting spirit, Jingli’s face was not pretty: “A bunch of ungrateful pariahs!”
“If the king really fulfills the reward before the war, these common people will How can you be willing to be exploited by me in the future? ”
"Your Majesty, this is touching the roots of my Jing family, and even more so the roots of all the nobles!"
Jingpo jumped off the city wall and said quietly: "Now is not the time to think about this matter." "Let's go. , return to the Shouchun Palace!"
As he spoke, Jingpo got on his horse, rode along the city climbing road into the city, and ran towards the Shouchun Palace.
Looking at the private soldiers of the Jing family running towards the city, Li Yuan felt paralyzed, and even his scolding voice was quite feeble: "Rebellious ministers, all rebel ministers!"
"It is because of these rebellious ministers that our country, Chu, is trapped between the mountains in the south and unable to seize the Central Plains in the north!"
With the Jing family's "return to aid" Shouchun Palace, the three walls of Shouchun City in the east, west and north The garrison strength was reduced by more than half.
The number of troops that can be mobilized by Li Yuan is now less than 8,000!
With the city wall lost, Li Yuan had no idea how to resist the 60,000 Qin army with eight thousand soldiers and horses!
Li Yuan could only reluctantly order: "Send an order to the county soldiers to use the streets and lanes of Shouchun City to resist the Qin army."
"Send orders to the main army, guards and other troops to retreat to Shouchun Palace!"
After saying that, Li Yuan also rode down to the city and led the remaining soldiers to rush into the city.
The city wall system of Shouchun City was completely lost.
Wang Bo quickly led his troops along the gap in the east city wall and stepped onto the north city wall, then opened the north city gate!
Meng Nan and Xifeng, who had been waiting outside the city for a long time, immediately rushed into the north city on horseback.
"Coach!"
Seeing a large banner in the distance, Meng Nan shouted loudly: "Where is the coach?!"
A figure laughed loudly: "Lieutenant Meng Du? This general We finally have reinforcements!”
At this moment, Ying Chengyu looks the same as his soldiers.
The iconic general's armor with red stripes on a black background has been completely covered with blood, and the handsome face is also covered in blood.
It wasn't until he heard Ying Chengyu's voice that Meng Nan finally identified who it was, and immediately ordered: "Give up your horse for the commander!"
More than a hundred knights immediately dismounted and gave up their horses.
Ying Chengyu was not polite. He got on his horse and ordered in a deep voice: "Order!"
"Meng Nan's troops replaced Su Jiao's troops and served as the vanguard."
< br>"Xifeng's troops, drive into the battle!"
Xi Feng excitedly raised his hands and said: "Wei!"
"Line up and charge!"
...
Two quarters of an hour later, Shouchun Palace.
On the palace wall, King Chu Han's face was very ugly: "Is this the reason why the Jing family abandoned the city and fled?!"
Jing Po said sincerely: "Your Majesty, this cannot be called a reason, but a reason!"
"The King gives all the people the opportunity to be promoted. I, the private soldier of the Jing family, are very grateful to Wang Shangming." Within five years. "
"After the city was broken, Jing's private soldiers wanted to return to Shouchun Palace, but the general could not control it at all, and could not stop the good intentions of the soldiers."
" That’s why the last general decided to lead his army back to Shouchun Palace to protect the king from escaping Shouchun City!”
King Han of Chu asked coldly: “So, this belongs to me, isn’t it?”
< br>
Jing Po raised his hands in fear: "Please, Your Majesty, please don't say that."
"It was the Jing family's private soldiers who were too loyal and patriotic, and the general was incompetent and unable to control the soldiers, which caused such a situation."
Chu King Han shouted angrily: "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking!"
Jing Po wanted to explain, but Jing Chou stretched out his hand to stop Chu King Han, and handed over his hand. He said: "May I ask Your Majesty, I, the Jing family, are patriotic and private soldiers are loyal to the emperor. What else do we think?"
"What is wrong with what we did!"
Li Yuan, who hurried back, replied loudly: "My fault is that I disobeyed the general's order!"
"The general ordered you to defend the city, why did you wait to withdraw your troops!"
Jing Po said in confusion: "The last general has not listened to the general's orders!"
Li Yuan angrily shouted: "How dare you deceive the king!"
Jingchou said seriously: "Li Lingyin, I, the Jing family, respect Shangguan, Li Lingyin But you can’t slander me, Jing, at will.”
"Li Lingyin said that our army was disobedient, where is the evidence?"
Li Yuan was speechless.
Evidence?
The messengers have all been killed, how can there be any evidence!
Li Yuan had no choice but to change the direction of attack: "Jing's withdrawal was because he wanted to return to aid Shouchun Palace."
"What about the Zhao family?"
Zhao Cen said helplessly: "All of our Zhao family's private soldiers are in the Shangzhu army. The additional troops sent for this battle are all the servants of Weichen."
“They have never experienced a battle, and they only know what they should do depending on the command of their generals.”
“However, I, Captain Zhao, was seriously injured when I charged into the battle, and I am still unconscious. "
"The Zhao family servants didn't know what to do, so they roared to withdraw their troops."
"This is my fault."
Li Yuan was laughed out of anger: "Does Zhao Zuoyin believe such clumsy words?"
Zhao Cen did not want to answer.
The kings and dignitaries of Chu State have used blood and death to test out the rules and hidden rules in hundreds of years of fighting.
If they act outside the rules, even the three tribes of Qu, Jing, and Zhao will be like the Wei (wěi) tribe in the past, and only three or two kittens will be killed from one of the four major tribes.
But as long as you do things within the rules, it doesn't matter even if you poison King Chu!
So it doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not.
As long as what Zhaoshi does is within the rules, Zhaoshi is safe.
Li Yuan still wanted to scold him, but King Han of Chu suddenly spoke: "Now that we are facing a formidable enemy, all of you beloved ministers are still arguing endlessly. How can it be unworthy of you!"
"Ai Qing Zhao, Jing Jing" My dear, I would rather die than leave Shouchun Palace.”
"Are you two dear friends willing to defend Shouchun Palace to the death for me?"
Jingchou and Zhaocen were slightly startled, and then they handed over their hands with ugly expressions: "You are willing to fight to the death for the king!"
So clear. Jingchou and Zhaocen could not refuse the escort order, and had no reason to refuse.
Jingchou and Zhaocen could not just sit back and watch King Han of Chu being openly killed by the Qin army and remain indifferent.
This is also a rule!
King Chu Han nodded slightly: "That's good!"
Striding forward, King Chu Han walked to the female wall and looked at the Qin army rushing towards him.
The Qin army’s chariot was stationed two hundred feet in front of Shouchun Palace, and a passage was opened.
Ying Chengyu, who was covered in blood, led a hundred soldiers along this passage to a stone's throw outside Shouchun Palace.
With a bow, Ying Chengxuan shouted loudly: "Jun Chang'an of Qin, Young Master Chengxuan, please pay homage to the King of Chu!"
After shaking off the sticky blood on his hands and wiping the blood off his face, Ying Chengyu's face was finally revealed in front of King Chu Han.
Showing a sunny smile, Ying Chengyu smiled and said: "It is not easy to meet the King of Chu!"
