"General, there is no one in the city!" The soldier who explored the path in front came back to report.

"Bastard!" The leader was furious, and he didn't know if the soldier who was really scolding Chu was still scolding himself.After cursing a few words, he could only send someone to report to the king of Zhennan who had not yet entered the city.

"What's that?" Xianfeng frowned and asked, pointing to something that didn't seem to be very noticeable somewhere on the corner.The soldier standing in front of his horse checked his face, and after a while, he came back with some doubts and told him, "General Qi, it seems that it is some tung oil and stone fat water. It was about the time when the Dongchu people fled. "Xianfeng frowned, feeling that something was wrong.I looked around carefully, and found that there were not a few of them, and there seemed to be a strong smell of wine in the air.There were several wine shops along the street where they had just entered the city, so they didn't pay attention. But now, after careful observation, they found that even outside the wine shop, the taste of the wine is too strong.Before I came to think about it, the window upstairs next to the street was suddenly pushed aside from inside.A black-clothed man took a cold look at the person underneath, swiftly opened his bow and arrows, and then disappeared into the window.These actions were only completed in an instant, and the man had disappeared from the window when everyone reacted to the window.

"It's on fire!" Suddenly someone screamed, and a cluster of sparks suddenly appeared on both sides of the street and spread in an extreme time.

"There is an ambush! Get out!"

At the same time, the city of Xinyang became noisy again, "The city gate is also on fire!" There was a loud noise from the city gate, and then they saw the fire rising into the sky. Even if they were in the city, they could clearly see that day. The red light, you can imagine how fierce the fire is.

"Quick! Fight the fire!" Xiling's army suddenly became a mess.It is not easy to put out the fire. Xiling City was originally dry and lacking water, and the few wells were either blocked or buried.The only liquid that can be found in Second City at this time is wine.As if deliberately, these were placed outside the wine shops, and some were even placed on the side of the street. If someone accidentally broke the jar, it would cause a bigger fire.Xinyang City, which should have been singing of triumph, was now full of fire and wailing.

On a mountain a few miles away in Xinyang City, Ye Li looked at Xinyang City, which had been woven into a sea of ​​fire in the distance, and sighed softly: "Xinyang is destroyed." Standing behind Ye Li, Qin Feng put a thin cloak on her. One side said: "The princess does not have to worry. Actually, Xinyang City is mostly earth and stone buildings. Even if most of the houses are burned down, it will not be too much trouble to rebuild in the future. Moreover, we can wipe out at least 50,000 Xiling without a single soldier. People and horses. Rather than leaving Xinyang to live in Xiling, it’s better to burn it.” Ye Li smiled faintly, and turned around with his cloak close up: “Let’s go, I’m afraid that the anger of Zhennan King after this battle is not small. , Let's get to Hongzhou as soon as possible."

"Yes, Princess."

Xinyang City is indeed mostly earth-rock structure as Qin Feng said, and it is not a very good fuel.But even so, everyone missed a whole day and night.Because the city gate was blocked by fire, people in the city could not get out and people outside could not get in.When the fire finally weakened the next day and the troops outside the city could enter the city, the people in the city were almost wiped out.Even people who weren't burned to death by the fire would have suffocated to death because of the billowing smoke.The originally magnificent and heroic Xinyang City was already dark and lifeless.

The face of Zhennan King when he stepped into Xinyang City was no longer simply gloomy to describe, it was simply gloomy.Looking at the ruined walls in front of him, the thick smoke on both sides of the street that has not yet been completely extinguished, and the nasty smell in the air, the king of Zhennan looked savage and sinister, and gritted his teeth and said: "Ye Li..." The general who came in with the king of Zhennan They all looked trembling, for fear of saying or doing something wrong to anger the gloomy King of Zhennan.For a long time, I just listened to the king of Zhennan suddenly looking up to the sky with a long smile: "Okay! I didn't expect that this king will still meet an opponent in ten years! Mo Liufang, your good daughter-in-law! Ye Li...don't catch you alive Swear not to be human! According to this king's order, the king and concubines will be captured alive, and the gold will be rewarded with thousands of gold!" After hearing this, everyone explained that this kind of reward is almost comparable to the reward for the kings of the past. .Zhennan Wang turned around and glanced around, and sneered: "Leave people stationed in Xinyang, and the rest will set off for Hongzhou!"

"Yes."

Hongzhou City

Hongzhou is not the largest city in the northwest, nor is it the strongest city in the northwest. However, due to geographical constraints, the Xiling army has been blocked by the Mohist army and has not been able to get close to Hongzhou City.Although the northwest has been raging for war, the people and businesses in Hongzhou City are still very happy.Because they were backed by the only way to enter the Central Plains from the northwest, even if Hongzhou City was broken by the Xiling army, they came and fled into the Central Plains.What's more, the fighting area in Da Chu is not only in the northwest, so there are fewer people fleeing.

"Weichen Sun Xingzhi, governor of the northwest, led Hongzhou city officials and merchants to welcome the king and concubine." At the gate of the city, the Hongzhou prefect and officials came to welcome Ye Li and his party.

Feng Zhiyao glanced at the smiling middle-aged man in front of him. This person is considered to be a family of princes. He fled from Xinyang to Hongzhou at the beginning of the war. He always ignored the Mojia army near Hongzhou and even tried every means. Delay the supply of food and grass that should have been provided.At this time, he still had the courage to stand at the gate of the city to greet the princess.Ye Li wore plain Tsing Yi, not as graceful or gorgeous as the famous ladies in Chu Jing, and the clothes were frilled.The extremely ordinary and concise style makes people unable to produce the slightest disrespect and contempt.Holding Zhuo Jing's men on their horseback, Ye Li looked at the two rows of people respectfully standing in front of him with a calm expression, nodded slightly and said, "Master Sun is exempt."

Sun Xing stepped forward and smiled diligently: "The princess has worked hard all the way. Please enter the city for a cup of tea first, and wait for the subordinates to hold a banquet for the princess to wash the dust in the evening."

Ye Li's eyebrows raised lightly, so anxious to announce the relationship between the host and the guest?

"I'm afraid Master Sun's goodwill will be blown away. The Xiling army is raging in the territory of Hongzhou. Is there a solution for Master Unknown?"

Sun Xingzhi laughed and said, "With the Mo family army, how can there be places where the Xiling people are presumptuous. Like the people of Hongzhou, we are very relieved and relieved!" Feng Zhiyao raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Master Sun Do the people of Hongzhou that I think only refer to the people of Hongzhou City? Would you remember that Lord Sun is the governor of the northwest instead of the prefect of Hongzhou? In addition... What Sun said just now seems to be that the people of Xiling are now raiding the northwest, which is the fault of the Mohist army. That's it?" Sun Xingzhi's face became stiff, and he soon said with a smile: "I don't dare to be an official." I didn't dare rather than not, Feng Zhiyao snorted and ignored him.
