Help!Master Chief Assistant's Jiaojiao is a black widow

Chapter 217

"retreat?"

Ye Chengwei and Qi Feng looked at each other in disbelief.

Qi Feng kept shaking his head: "How is it possible, now that the Tatars want to put the commander and I to death, how can they easily retreat?"

Ye Chengwei picked up his saber and went straight to the top of the city. When he got to the top of the city and looked around, he saw that the army outside the city had retreated in a hurry.

"Why is this?"

Qi Feng was very confused.

Ye Chengwei sent many people out of the city to inquire, only then did he learn that Tongzhou was recaptured by the Daye Dynasty army.

Although he still doesn't know the reason, this is undoubtedly great news.

After leaving 8000 people to stick to the city, he immediately reorganized the army and led the rest of the troops to Tongzhou.

On the way, I met Han Wei who came to meet him.

Knowing that Xinzhou City was still there and that Ye Chengwei and Qi Feng were fine, Han Wei was so excited that tears filled his eyes, and he knelt down to pay homage and said: "The last general will meet Ye Shuai, General Qi, and the last general will finally welcome you back."

"Han Wei, what's going on?"

Qi Feng knew this person, and knew better that he was Zhang Xian's subordinate, he frowned while helping him up and asked, "Why is Zhang Xian willing to send troops to attack Tongzhou all of a sudden?"

While speaking, his eyes were full of sarcasm: "That guy can't even conquer a small Shuozhou, how can he take back Tongzhou?"

Han Wei told the two the ins and outs of the matter, Ye Chengwei learned that Hua Rujin had come to the border, but his face gradually became ugly after being happy.

"King Ning asked you to lead everyone to attack Tongzhou?"

Ye Chengwei's heart was pounding.

"Yes, the last general lived up to his mission and took this city within three days."

Han Wei smiled smugly: "The last general has ordered his confidants to stick to Tongzhou, and we haven't met Tartar reinforcements along the way."

"Confused."

Ye Chengwei frowned slightly: "Now there are only [-] remnants in Fenzhou City, and a living Daye Dynasty prince sticks to the isolated city. They are naturally willing to abandon Tongzhou."

"Could it be that the commander-in-chief thinks that the Tartars have gone straight to Fenzhou?"

Qi Feng also had some bad premonition.

Ye Chengwei clenched his fists and said coldly, "Who gave His Highness such a bad idea?"

Han Wei replied anxiously: "It's Miss Hua, your highness' staff, she originally wanted to use the method of besieging Wei and saving Zhao to rescue Ye Shuai. Wan Dajun took Tongzhou within three days."

Ye Chengwei didn't speak any more, just sighed softly.

Although Hua Rujin's strategy was good, but being tampered with by King Ning, the risk in it was aggravated. He was risking his life and putting all his eggs in one basket.

"Pass down our military order, ordering the generals of Tongzhou and Xinzhou to hold out, and the rest of the troops discard all their belongings and go straight to Fenzhou."

After issuing the military order, he whipped his horse and headed straight for Fenzhou.

Qi Feng watched his haggard figure quickly disappear from sight, and wanted to persuade him to eat some food first, but thinking of the safety of the eldest lady and King Ning, he didn't care too much, and hurriedly led the army to chase after him.

In the city of Fenzhou, King Ning was full of joy when he received the victory report from Tongzhou. He paced back and forth with the battle report and said to himself: "Han Wei really did not disappoint the king. He did it and really took back the Tongzhou .”

Hua Rujin couldn't be happy anyway.

Because at the same time the good news arrived in the city, the messengers sent by her and Old Wei had also returned one after another, and a large number of Tartar legions were constantly gathering towards Fenzhou City.

Before everyone could catch their breath, the city guard rushed to report: "His Royal Highness, 10 vanguard troops of the Tazi Legion have arrived at the city of Fenzhou and are attacking the gates of various cities."

"Ah, so fast?"

Although Zhu Zhiye expected this catastrophe, it came too soon: "At least let this king be happy first, damned tartar."

Seeing that King Ning was burning like a child, the guard was not in a hurry, and frowned even deeper: "Your Highness, the enemy army is attacking the North City Gate. Once the North City Gate falls, the entire Fenzhou City will fall. gone."

"Order all the soldiers to defend the city against the enemy."

Zhu Zhiye didn't dare to be careless anymore, and said with a firm expression: "This king is in the city."

A group of people hurried to the north city gate, and saw that the sky was densely covered with arrows, pouring down like a torrential rain.

When the sergeants saw King Ning ascending the city in person, they held up their shields and came over to protect him.

"Don't worry about me, you must guard the city gate, and don't let a tartar enter Fenzhou City."

Zhu Zhiye showed no fear, took out his sword and charged towards the top of the wall.

"I go."

Hua Rujin was so frightened that her scalp tingled for a while, she remembered that King Ning was not very good at martial arts, if the enemy army rushed to the top of the wall, he would be the first one to be chopped into pieces.

"Protect Your Highness."

Wei Shuhan yelled at the soldiers while avoiding the sharp arrows shot at the top of the city.

On the edge of the city, you can only see densely packed enemy troops climbing up the city as if they were desperate.

Hua Rujin helped the soldiers move the stones and awls to the edge of the city, and threw them down the city.

I was so tired that my arms were sore and weak, but the enemy army below the city was like a flood, and they couldn't retreat no matter how they blocked them.

The enemy's offensive did not stop until nightfall.

Looking around at the exhausted sergeants, she and Wu Mushuang followed the medical officer and the logistics officers in the kitchen to personally inspect and comfort the sergeants defending the city.

Seeing a sergeant suffering unbearably pain from an arrow wound, Hua Rujin couldn't help but think of the scene where her cousin Ruya died in battle.

How desolate it must be for such a well-mannered man to be pierced to death by thousands of arrows in the end.

Now, she only hoped that Ye Chengwei would not make the same mistakes again and come out of Xinzhou City safely.

"It's cold at night, help the wounded soldiers to the camp to rest."

It was also the first time for Wu Muning to witness such a tragic battle, so she couldn't bear to tell the logistics staff.

But as soon as she finished speaking, several soldiers leaning against the wall said in unison: "Miss Wu, let us stay at the top of the city. As long as we are alive, we will defend Fenzhou City with Your Highness to the death."

King Ning brought people over, and was quite moved when he heard the voices of the soldiers: "Good job, you are all warriors of my Daye dynasty, but now the enemy army is so powerful, I don't know when we can wait for the reinforcements, bring them The wounded soldiers go down to rest and wait for the battle tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, he forced the medical officers to help the seriously injured sergeant to go down the city.

After calming down the soldiers, Zhu Zhiye, Hua Rujin, and Wu Muning found a place at the base of the wall and sat down.

Thinking of Hua Rujin's entry into Beijing without fear of hardships, Zhu Zhiye is now filled with emotion: "Little Hua'er, I finally understand why you risk your life to bring down King Fu and King Yun, and why you have to advise your father to let me come to the border gone."

"It seems that His Highness has grown a lot these days."

Hua Rujin smiled slightly.

"of course."

Zhu Zhiye also responded with a warm smile: "It's not easy for the emperor and the ancestors to take down this country, how can they be ruined in the hands of traitors, so this time, no matter what, I have to defend Fenzhou City."
