Chapter 144: The Mayor of Wuping Town
The atmosphere in Xiguan City was tense and solemn.
Youyue was dressed in a gorgeous silver battle armor, standing upright like a pine tree, standing firmly on the ancient city wall. The sunlight shone down, reflecting her resolute and courageous face and heroic demeanor.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, and her sharp gaze, like that of an eagle, quickly swept across the huge clock on the city wall.
Every second that passed made her heart beat faster, because this was the critical moment to decide the outcome! Time was running out, and she had to seize this fleeting opportunity to launch an attack!
Without any hesitation, Youyue immediately turned around and shouted loudly to gather the well-trained and battle-hardened elite soldiers under his command. They moved at the command and quickly gathered behind Youyue, all of them in high spirits and ready for battle.
The life and death of the commander of the Northern Yan camp was uncertain, and the entire camp was now leaderless. This was undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. She had to act quickly and decisively to deal a fatal blow to the Northern Yan army.
As she gave the order, the sound of war drums in the city rang out, signaling an attack. The city gate slowly opened, and the elite cavalry rushed out first, crossing the battlefield like lightning and heading straight for the Northern Yan camp.
Immediately afterwards, the infantry phalanx followed closely behind, with firm steps and high morale, as if they were an unstoppable torrent rushing towards the Northern Yan camp.
"Soldiers of Dabai, tonight we will all be heroes of Dabai, follow me and charge!"
Youyue rode her horse to the front line, her battle flag fluttering in the wind. The bright flag was like a flame of victory, burning brightly on the battlefield. Her eyes were firm and resolute, as if to say: "Today is the day when the Northern Yan army will be destroyed!"
Thousands and thousands of cavalrymen, surging like a tide, rushed into the Northern Yan camp at lightning speed. Their figures were like a violent whirlwind, sweeping in with endless murderous intent and determination!
"Where is General Lu?! General Li is nowhere to be seen!" The soldiers in the Beiyan camp were panicked and terrified by the sudden attack. They looked around with wide eyes for their generals but found nothing, and were filled with fear and confusion.
In the chaos, the Northern Yan soldiers hastily organized a fragile defense line in an attempt to resist the enemy's fierce and fierce attack. However, without a backbone, they were like a group of headless flies running around, unable to condense into an organic whole, let alone build an effective tactical system.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The shouts and cries of killing resounded throughout heaven and earth, exploding like thunder and surging like raging waves, echoing one after another in the sky above the entire Beiyan camp, as if tearing the sky apart!
This passionate and high-pitched slogan was like a war drum, inspiring every soldier in our army. They rode on their horses, brandished their weapons, and rushed towards the enemy like tigers descending from the mountains. At the same time, these roars were like sharp swords, piercing the hearts of the Northern Yan soldiers, making them terrified and their morale greatly reduced.
Under such a strong pressure, the army of Beiyan began to become chaotic, and the defense line was defeated. In less than an hour, the army of Beiyan was defeated, leaving their armor and weapons behind, and fled in panic.
The battlefield was littered with broken limbs and scarlet blood. The balance of victory had completely tilted towards our side, and the outcome of this battle seemed to have been predetermined.
The grand ceremony was held in the palace.
Nan Rongxi was sitting on the dragon throne. The system was telling Nan Rongxi about the situation of the battle at Xiguan, and all the officials were listening quietly below.
Nan Rongxi: [Great! Youyue is indeed excellent. She defeated the Beiyan army in one fell swoop! ]
System: [Xizi, your letter was really powerful. It broke their commander's defense in one fell swoop!]
At this moment, a scout hurried into the hall. He knelt on one knee, holding up a heavy battle report in both hands, and reported in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, there is a victory report from Xiguan! This is a detailed battle report, please take a look!"
Nan Rongxi's eyes flashed with anticipation, and she quickly took the battle report and read it carefully. As time went by, a satisfied smile gradually appeared on her face, and finally she couldn't help laughing.
"My dear ministers, the battle of Xiguan was a great victory, and our army's morale was greatly boosted! This is all thanks to the heroic efforts of the soldiers who fought bravely and sacrificed their lives!"
Nan Rongxi stood up and spoke excitedly to the ministers.
There was a sudden burst of cheers and applause in the court, and everyone congratulated Nan Rongxi.
"We should press on with our victory this time. We must let Beiyan know that we are not easy to bully!"
Nan Rongxi's eyes flickered with determination, and he was ready to fight.
At this time, Da Congming stepped forward, clasped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the next step is to concentrate our forces to attack Wuping Town, an important town in Northern Yan! As long as we can capture this place, we can march straight in and defeat the eastern defense line of Northern Yan in one fell swoop!"
Nan Rongxi frowned slightly, thought for a moment and nodded, feeling that what Dacongming said made a lot of sense.
She thought to herself: [Tongzi, oh Tongzi, please let me taste the melon from Wuping Town! Let's see if there is any strategy to defeat the enemy hidden in it.]
As soon as the voice fell, the system replied: [About the gossip of Wuping Town, of course there is! ]
As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials present pricked up their ears instantly, afraid of missing any details.
The system then said: [The mayor of Wuping Town, Long Yang, has a unique hobby! ]
Nan Rongxi couldn't help but laugh secretly when he heard this: [Oh? Tongzi, tell me more about it! Just hearing the name makes me feel that this person is not simple! ]
The system smiled slightly, as if it was intentionally trying to whet everyone's appetite, and after arousing everyone's curiosity, it slowly said: [In fact, Long Yang has always had a special liking for the son of Wuping garrison commander Yu Sheng! ]
This sentence was like a thunderbolt that split the sky and exploded in the hearts of all the officials. They stared with wide eyes, their faces full of astonishment, as if they could not believe what they heard.
Is there such a thing? !
Da Congming and Nan Rongjie were dumbfounded and stood there in shock. This news was so shocking that they couldn't recover for a while.
But the system did not stop, and continued: [Yu Sheng's son Yu Wen is the only son in his family for nine generations! The relationship between the two has been buried deep in their hearts, and even the closest people have never noticed it. ]
Nan Rongxi: [Then I understand. If I let Yu Sheng know about this, it will be easy to take over Wuping Town! ]
After hearing this, all the officials felt that it made sense.
