570. Advanced: Empress (16)

When the materials and troops in the city were getting more and more difficult, and reinforcements could not break through the enemy's siege and arrive at the battlefield, I didn't know that the atmosphere in the Beiliang military camp was actually not much better.

Bad news comes one by one.

“No reinforcements.”

Long before attacking the Wengcheng, the empress had already requested the empress to send reinforcements, but it has been delayed until today, and there has been no news of reinforcements.

"The food and grass are about to be exhausted."

Without reinforcements, there is naturally no supply of food and grass.

The Empress of Beiliang seemed to be very opposed to Lianyin taking the third city in the Sui realm, and there was nothing to do if she wanted.

In addition to the above two, Lianyin also received a secret letter, which was a message from the imperial city.

The content is: "The eldest princess congratulates Ruoyuan and returns to the court."

Although it is just a few words, it contains countless contents.

Lianyin twisted a thin piece of paper and fell into deep thought.

Around her, several generals were waiting for her to make an idea. How to fight the next battle? Will the Wengcheng still attack?

The camp was quiet.

When the waiting time grew longer and the general had not yet wanted to return to his senses, several generals looked at each other, and without exception, they all saw anxiety in their eyes.

After a while, the public representative Chen Fang first spoke: "General, what should I do now?"

Lianyin finally came to her senses.

Put away the tissue paper in his hand, Lian Yin glanced at the people standing around him.

He said slowly: "The city must be taken down!"

"But..., food, grass and reinforcements?" Some generals were worried.

Unlike several generals who looked worried, they looked like they were not worried at all.

Under his faint face, there was the momentum in the planning: "Call another defender from the border and Wacheng. As for food and grass, he would first collect it from both places, and then send a letter to General Cai, and ask General Cai to quickly dispatch an elite guarding troops to come overnight."

After saying this, she stood up, took two steps towards the entrance of the tent, and emphasized: "I am determined to win the urn city. Moreover, I must win it as quickly as possible!"

Although several generals were suspicious, Lianyin said so strongly that they had nothing else to say.

The generals are outside, everything is followed by the commander!

After talking about the military situation, Lianyin waved away everyone, and the generals quickly followed Lianyin's instructions to work hard, while Chen Fang was kept by Lianyin.

After only two people were left in the big tent, Lianyin handed him the secret letter he received.

Chen Fang was stunned for a moment, then hesitated to take the secret letter and read it.

After reading the contents of the secret letter, Chen Fang stacked the thin paper and returned it to Lianyin as it was, waiting for Lianyin's instructions.

Lianyin took back the secret letter: "I want you to write to the Chen family in the Imperial City. No matter what method is used, we are optimistic about He Ruoyuanjia before we return to the court."

Chen Fang clasped his fists with both hands and his eyebrows were closed: "Yes!"

With no strange expression, my heart moved.

She just said "we".

Lianyin didn't pay attention to Chen Fang's thoughts. Her mind was suddenly returning to He Ruoyuanjia.

She knew that the empress loved the eldest princess He Ruoyuanjia, and even if He Ruoyuanjia had abandoned all his identities, he still wanted to pursue love. The empress was so angry that she was unwilling to mention this person again, but how long after, the empress agreed to the other party to return to Beiliang again.

This shows that without anyone knowing, the eldest princess had already obtained the empress's forgiveness, and the empress agreed to her return.

It may not only be the return of people, but also the return of identity.

It would be fine if it was placed elsewhere, but in Lianyin's mission, there is the position of the Empress.

In any case, she could not easily hand over this position to someone.

When the Beiliang Army was secretly busy dispatching troops, it did not relax at all on the surface of the attack on the Wengcheng.

The two reinforcements were still blocked by the left and right sides. After several rounds, the head coaches of the two routes finally considered changing the method and prepared to divide them into a whole. The two armies merged and chose one route together.

After the Beiliang Army knew the plans of the two Sui Army, Lianyin retreated to one of them and transferred the other route to the place where the Sui Army must pass and then set up a checkpoint. This time, it mainly focuses on disrupting trouble and delaying time.

On the other hand, the reinforcements from Wacheng came first with food and grass to join the army.

Lianyin took the opportunity to rest for a day, then redeployed the manpower and attacked the Wengcheng at night.

The strong attack was noon the next day, and reinforcements from the border arrived and directly joined the strong attacking army.

By midnight, the city was finally broken.

As soon as the Wengcheng was broken, Lianyinhuo quickly led his army to occupy all the walls of Wengcheng. While cleaning the city, he also increased his troops to deal with the two integrated reinforcements of the Sui army.

Five days later, the defenders from the Beiliang border also arrived.

The Sui reinforcements retreated and did not dare to move forward rashly.

Seeing that the defense line had been completed, Lianyin breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, it’s about the deployment of the defense.

The military information here is handed over to the courts of both countries, so naturally there are two styles of painting.

It is reported that the Emperor of Sui was so angry that he almost smashed the imperial study room.

On the Beiliang side, the empress did not look too happy. After saying something neither salty nor light, she exposed the matter.

Even the three cities in the Sui area were of course also reported to the ears of neighboring countries. Compared with the two parties involved, other countries mostly wait and see about this situation.

The only person who did not have a wait-and-see attitude was probably Chengguo.

The reason is that He Ruoyuanjia came from the prime minister and also brought a letter of covenant from the king of the prime minister.

The Chengguo wanted to form an alliance with Beiliang, but this alliance also had a subordinate relationship.

The main ally is naturally the prime minister.

He Ruoyuanjia's sweetheart was in the Chengguo and was a noble son of the Chengguo family. Now he is an important official in the Chengguo court.

For the sake of his sweetheart and love, He Ruoyuanjia can abandon his national identity, or come back to persuade the empress to accept the covenant for his sweetheart and a better life in the future.

Although the empress was not satisfied with the subordinate relationship required by the prime minister, she was moved by the alliance.

Martial warfare was not what the empress liked. Building diplomatic relations, peace and happiness of the whole country are what she wanted.

The empress was inexplicably confident. Only by doing so could she be famous in history.

In the future, he will also become a wise emperor who is comparable to Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong.

The envoys from the prime minister came with He Ruoyuanjia.

In order to give He Ruoyuanjia face, the empress specially set up a banquet to entertain envoys. At the banquet, almost all the important officials in the Beiliang country and aristocratic families attended.

At the banquet, the empress did not care about having a good chat with the eldest princess, and even treated the envoys of the prime minister differently.

This made the officials and families who had supported He Ruoyuanjia in the past revived their minds. If the eldest princess rejoined the ranks of heirs, then their interests would have hope.

Those who support He Ruolianyin remained silent throughout the whole process. In the eyes of the other party, they had the intention of being a human being with their tails in their hands.

This made the officials of the other camp smile slightly.
