Chapter 298 Reinforcement
The king of Jin returned to the mansion three days later, his face was full of exhaustion, "The five villages connected outside the pass were looted. According to the survivors, it was the bravery of the soldiers of the State of Di. Now the army of the State of Di has surrounded Xining City."

"The battle report was sent by the Xining guard?" Jiang Changning asked.

"Send it with all your might, Xining is at stake." King Jin said with a serious voice.

Jiang Changning bit the corner of his lower lip, "Are you going to lead troops out?"

King Jin looked at her, and after Jiang Changning looked at him for a moment, he lowered his head and said sullenly, "I, I'll go and pack your luggage for you."

"Why are you crying?" King Jin stretched out his hand to lift her chin, and found that her eyes were red and sparkling in her eyes.

"Who cried? I didn't." Jiang Changning refused to admit it, and she didn't know why her eyes were sore and tears.

The King of Jin changed his words in an obedient manner, and coaxed her: "Yes, yes, yes, you didn't cry, I read it wrong."

"Let go, I'm going to pack your luggage for you." Jiang Changning kept a straight face, enduring the pain and not letting tears fall.

"No charge."

"I'll just try to persuade you, it won't tire me."

King Jin laughed, "I won't go, there are others leading the army."

Jiang Changning was taken aback, "Aren't you going?"

"I dont go."

"You are so annoying, it's all like this, and you still tease me." Jiang Changning reacted, and was so angry that he clenched his fists and wanted to hit him.

King Jin grabbed her fist, "Talk and laugh to be happy."

When he first entered the door, he saw Jiang Changning sitting there, looking lost, which made him feel distressed.

"I thought you would lead troops out." Jiang Changning sat down beside him.

Jin Wang is both civil and military, and now he is in charge of the Ministry of War. It is a matter of course for him to lead the troops to the expedition.

"I am the regent, and I have a high position and authority. It is better not to put myself in danger, so as not to cause turmoil in the court." King Jin said while stroking her belly.

Jiang Changning was pregnant and stupid for three years, but he didn't think this statement was reasonable, "Who will the court send to lead the troops to break the siege of Xining?"

"Jiujiang King is the main general, Xu Jiajie and Gu Junfeng are partial generals, and Qin Zhaoxi is the supervising army. He will lead 50 troops to set off today."

Jiang Changning curled his lips, "Will the King of Jiujiang lead the army?"

"Xu Jiajie and Gu Junfeng will meet."

Jiang Changning snorted coldly, "Ganqing is to grab the credit, he is not afraid that the sword has no eyes, if he is not careful, the credit is not taken, and his life is gone."

"In order to seize the military power, I don't care about so much." Jin Wang laughed mockingly, "He believes that he has a great fortune."

"Let's not talk about that, you're tired too, I'll get you some water, take a bath to get tired, and then go to bed to rest." Jiang Changning said, got up and told the maid to do something.

After Jin Wang took a bath, he pulled Jiang Changning, "Come, sleep with me."

"I've only been up for less than half an hour, I'm not sleepy." Jiang Changning resisted.

King Jin didn't care if she was sleepy or not, he hugged her and put her on the bed.

Jiang Changning could only sleep with her, but she was restless when she slept with her, and she was not counting her handcuffs, and her hands were playing tricks on King Jin.

"Ningning, light the fire, I won't let you go." King Jin pressed her hand. Although he was very tired now, he had been empty for two or three months, and he desperately wanted to eat meat.

Jiang Changning gave him a belly bump, "My lord, I have an amulet."

"Mistake." Jin Wang was annoyed.

Jiang Changning smiled smugly, and King Jin continued: "Remember the account, we will settle the account when you are confinement."

Jiang Changning's expression froze, forgetting that her amulet has a time limit, "My lord, between husband and wife, keep accounts, okay?"

"Don't keep other accounts, but this account must be kept." Jin Wang kissed her on the cheek, "Be good and sleep."

Jiang Changning was obedient, snuggled into his arms obediently, and closed his eyes.

People who are not sleepy fall asleep earlier than sleepy people.

King Jin looked at her sleeping face, laughed dumbfounded, kissed her on the forehead, and embraced her to sleep.

Two days later, 50 soldiers and horses were assembled, and the three regents personally sent the Lord Jiujiang King and others out of the city.

On the second day after the soldiers and horses set off, the urgent battle report of eight hundred miles came: Xining fell, the defender of Xining died heroically, and the army of Di Kingdom drove straight in, marching towards Lanzhou City.

There are [-] troops in Xining, and they only defended it for six or seven days. Lanzhou City has only [-] troops stationed there.

Those who knew this situation couldn't help but worry and say: "Lanzhou City is in danger."

Everyone felt that in a few days, they should receive the report of the fall of Lanzhou City.

Due to the war, Beijing has become much quieter, and the banquets of all the prefectures have stopped.

"The Di army is so aggressive, they won't directly attack the capital, right?" Fu Cui said.

Shu Fei glared at her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, the 50 army is vegetarian?"

"If you charge over 50 pigs, it will take a long time to kill them, let alone 50 well-trained soldiers. Don't worry, the army of Di Kingdom will not be able to attack the capital." Jiang Changning laughed.

Lanzhou's guards used their troops like gods, and led the people in the city to resist the Di army, but the strength of the troops was very different.

Ten days later, the city of Lanzhou was destroyed, and only the youngest son of the guard's family escaped under the escort of the general. The rest of them all died in the country.

The imperial reinforcements were still three days away from Lanzhou City.

Along with the battle report of the destruction of Lanzhou City, there was also a secret letter sent by Gu Junfeng's confidants to King Jin.

King Jin, who read the secret letter, almost fainted, and slapped it down, knocking off a piece of the table corner, and said in a hateful voice: "Helian Lijiang really deserves to die."

Lanzhou City could have been defended, but the King of Jiujiang was greedy for flowers and lust, and accepted beauties from local officials along the way, delaying the itinerary of the army.

The arrival of reinforcements was delayed, and Lanzhou City was short of food and medicine. It was trapped for ten days, with more and more casualties, and it couldn't hold on anymore.

The guard was not allowed to arrange for people to retreat, but he led the remaining [-] elite soldiers to besiege the city and die heroically.

It is a secret that Gu Junfeng belongs to the king of Jin. The king of Jin cannot impeach the king of Jiujiang based on his secret report.

It is a taboo to use troops to change generals before the battle.

Gu Junfeng's secret report cannot be used, but the official document submitted by the military supervisor Qin Zhaoxi can be used.

"Your Majesty, the King of Jiujiang is the general recommended by Uncle Qing, but what he has done along the way, he is in a state of leading troops to rush to help." King Jin said angrily.

It is okay to fight for power, but you cannot disregard the lives of soldiers and border residents.

The city of Xining was destroyed, and the army of Di State slaughtered tens of thousands of border residents and burned half of the city.

The city of Lanzhou was destroyed, and tens of thousands of border people died under the butcher knife of the Di army.

The tragedy in Xining is not to be blamed on the King of Jiujiang, but the King of Jiujiang cannot escape responsibility for the incident in Lanzhou.

Seeing the things written in the official document, King Qing scolded the King of Jiujiang secretly. The mud could not support the wall, but he still had to speak for him, "The King of Jiujiang was entrusted by His Majesty, and he led the troops to rescue. It is impossible to do such a thing. Please Your Majesty be aware of such an unwise thing."

He said again: "This is because the words of the Qin Supervisor Army are not credible."

The King of Jin did not argue with him, and directly suggested: "Your Majesty can send the censor to accompany the officers and soldiers escorting the grain and grass to the northwest, and check along the way."
