Chapter 290 The turmoil is coming
Things did not develop as the leader in black had hoped.
With the timely arrival of our own reinforcements, the morale of the Wei Palace guards who had been resisting the offensive of the dead soldiers was immediately boosted.
On the other hand, for the black-clad soldiers, not only was the front offensive blocked, but the enemies in the rear were also approaching step by step.
Suffering attacks from two sides and with their morale ebbing and flowing, the dead men in black had no chance of winning.
"Destroy all enemy forces."
"kill!"
Amidst the shouts of killing, the balance of victory in this battle began to gradually tilt towards the Wei army, and the offensive and defensive momentum also reversed at this moment.
Having lost their numerical advantage, the dead soldiers in black could not even maintain their own formation and could only retreat step by step.
In the end, under the joint attack of Wei's soldiers, the remaining dozens of dead men in black were heavily surrounded.
Their eyes swept across the increasingly smaller encirclement around them, and these dead soldiers knew very well that they and others had lost the possibility of escaping.
Subconsciously, they glanced at the companions around them, and these people raised their swords.
They did not stab the approaching Wei army with their sharp blades, but placed them on their own necks.
Along with the sound of the sword clanging to the ground, streams of blood slowly flowed on the ground of the battlefield.
These people have pledged their loyalty through their actions.
After a few breaths, an opening suddenly opened up in the heavily blocked Wei army formation, and Anyi General Zhai Liang arrived here with his sword in hand.
Looking at the corpses of the dead soldiers lying on the ground in front of him, and looking at the long swords stained with his own blood around them, Zhai Liang couldn't help but frown.
"Bury these people."
"Here."
…
While Wei's soldiers were busy dealing with the battlefield, Zhai Liang, who was leading an army to help, came to the carriage where Wei Feng was riding.
Looking at the two figures standing in front of the carriage, Zhai Liang quickly stepped forward and bowed: "General Zhai Liang, I pay my respects to you, your Majesty, the Prime Minister."
"General Zhai Liang, please get up quickly."
As soon as Zhai Liang's voice fell, Wei Feng stepped forward and grabbed him.
"If General Zhai Liang hadn't rescued us in time today, I'm afraid this battle wouldn't have ended so quickly."
"Your Majesty has given you great honor." Zhai Liang responded solemnly, "Thanks to Gongsun Situ for this matter."
"If he hadn't thought that the situation inside and outside Anyi City was complicated and asked the general to send more scouts to investigate, I'm afraid the general would not have been able to arrive in time."
After listening to Zhai Liang's report, Wei Feng and Gongsun Qi looked at each other, and a look of satisfaction appeared on their faces at the same time.
After years of hard work in the local area, Gongsun Yang has gradually matured and handled matters very comprehensively.
After a few more years of experience in high positions in the court, Gongsun Yang's future will be very exciting.
Putting Gongsun Yang aside again, Wei Feng's heart sank again.
Just as Gongsun Yang judged, the situation in Anyi at this moment, whether inside or outside the city, can be said to be complicated and abnormal.
Zhai Liang led his troops to rescue him. Has anyone with intentions already heard about it? Will they take advantage of this opportunity to take action again?
The answer to this question probably doesn't have much suspense.
Wei Feng quickly raised his gaze and looked at Zhai Liang in front of him, "General Zhai Liang, how many soldiers are there in Anyi City now?"
"Your Majesty, the last general has brought half of the soldiers this time. At this moment, there are still 4,000 soldiers in Anyi City who have returned to Gongsun Situ Jie."
Nodding slightly, Wei Feng's eyes shifted slightly and looked in the direction of Anyi.
"Maybe some people really can't sit still."
…
"Lord, Lord, Lord..."
Panic shouts mixed with hurried footsteps rushed into the study of Zongbo Wei Zhi's mansion.
Wei Zhi, who was lying behind several cases, immediately raised his head. At this moment, the ink pen in his right hand was still writing something on the bamboo slips.
Looking at the panting and frightened confidants in front of him, Wei Zhi immediately showed a bit of displeasure on his face.
"Why are you so alarmed?"
After asking this question, Wei Zhi withdrew his gaze again, acting as if the mountain had collapsed but his expression remained unchanged.
However, his appearance did not last long before he was completely broken by the retainer's next words.
"The Lord is in trouble, Zhai Liang has led his army out of the city." Facing Wei Zhi in front, the retainer's face could be said to be full of anxiety.
In his opinion, if Zhai Liang, the Anyi general, would leave the city at this moment, something important must have happened.
Perhaps it has something to do with what his master has been planning these days. Doesn't the current movement of the Wei army mean that the operation is likely to fail?
"What!"
After Wei Zhi heard what the retainer said, he immediately stood up from his seat in shock.
However, what was somewhat unexpected for the retainers in front of him was that after the shock, a smile appeared on Wei Zhi's face.
That smile was so abrupt and completely incompatible with our situation at the moment.
Just when the retainer was puzzled, Wei Zhi looked at him with a smile on his lips, "Is this serious?"
"Seriously." He replied, and as if to be more convincing, the retainer added, "This matter was witnessed by this villain."
"good, very good, excellent!"
After saying hello three times in a row, Wei Zhi gradually faded the smile on his face, and a heart-stopping cruelty appeared in his eyes.
"Send someone to report it immediately so that something big can start."
"Here."
A few breaths later, Wei Zhi's face was once again filled with a smile as he saw the retainer's figure disappear from sight.
Zhai Liang's departure with his army undoubtedly made Anyi a little empty at this moment, and also allowed him to see the opportunities that existed at this moment.
If he seizes this opportunity decisively, he may not be able to achieve some big things before Wei Feng returns to the city.
Compared with these major events, what are the lives of hundreds of dead soldiers?
Isn't the fate of a dead soldier just death?
Thinking of the changes that would happen in Anyi City soon, the smile on Wei Zhi's face couldn't help but brighten.
"Hahaha……"
In the study room of the mansion, there was only a smile that sounded a little crazy.
…
Between the palace rooms and the main hall, Zhao Yizheng, the wife of the Marquis of Wei, was pacing back and forth anxiously.
As her steps continued, her beautiful face was filled with worry.
"May I ask Situ, will your Majesty be safe during this trip?"
Gongsun Yang, who had been in the palace for a long time, immediately bowed and answered, "Mrs. Qi, the guards around you are all elites who can be selected from a hundred, and they are enough to deal with enemies several times larger than yourself."
"In addition, General Zhai Liang has already led his troops to rush there, so I believe that your Majesty's safety should be safe."
