1348 The general trend of the world

The army under the city tower was ready for battle, and a large number of siege tools slowly advanced forward on the muddy ground that was cleared out. At some point, the snowflakes that had already stopped in the middle of the night began to slowly fall in the gray sky.

The shouts of soldiers from the army began to sound over the Huining Mansion. The city tower of Huining Mansion was also on the verge of waiting. From time to time, some generals were hoarsely dispatched to the soldiers.

Everything is ready. Now, after Ye Qing gives the order, the next siege that will surely be extremely fierce is about to begin.

Ye Qing in the central army tent wore armor again. With his majestic appearance and awesomeness, Li Shi'er couldn't help but feel a little intoxicated when looking up.

Similarly, when Li Shier looked at Ye Qing at this moment, she realized that at some point, Ye Qing, who had only had gray hair on his temples, now even his beard on his chin had a faint white beard. At this moment, not only did Ye Qing look old, but it added some majesty and style to Ye Qing.

As if it was a routine, Li Shi'er sat down again before the desk and began to make tea for Ye Qing.

However, Li Shi'er's seemingly calm surface was betrayed by a pair of trembling hands. The precious porcelain collided from time to time because of Li Shi'er's trembling hands, making crisp sounds.

Li Shi'er has been looking forward to this moment for a long time, and even in countless dreams, she has seen countless troops rushing towards the city wall of Huining Mansion regardless of everything. Wanyan Xun, who knew only on the city wall, closed her eyes in pain in amazement and despair, finally knelt at her feet and begged for mercy.

All the soldiers in the camp were ready. After the news that the messenger had heard that the three main forces of Qi Shilie's Gods Slave, Wanyan Chen, and Qi Shilie's Baishan were ready to attack the city, Li Shi'er's hands couldn't help but tremble, and then he felt a warm feeling on his back, and Ye Qing's big hand slowly covered the back of her white hand.

"You tossed and turned last night and didn't sleep all night. Why haven't you adjusted your mood yet?" Ye Qing asked gently, holding one of Li Shi'er's hand.

Li Shi'er stared at Ye Qing's chin's gray beards again, then slowly lowered her head, continued to pour tea with her other hand, and said, "Maybe, I'm a little nervous."

Ye Qing smiled gently and patted Li Shi'er's back of his hand again. Just as he turned around and carried Li Shi'er into his arms to comfort him, the anxious voices of Jia She and Wanyan Congyi came from outside the tent.

Li Shi'er took two steps back with some loss, and then Jia She took Wanyan in from Yi.

From Wanyan, you can see from Yi that the snowflakes outside are getting bigger and bigger again. After entering the tent with Yi's head, shoulders, and even chest, and back, there was a thin layer of snowflakes that had not yet melted.

"Is there anything wrong?" Ye Qing picked up the Yanling knife he had just been about to hug Mr. Li, and asked with a smile.

"King Yan, can you wait and order the siege?" Wanyan Congyi said anxiously.

"Why?" Ye Qing frowned slightly, still a little confused about why Wanyan Congyi wanted to stop him from siegeing the city at this time. The snowflakes outside were getting bigger and bigger. If they were dragged on, they might miss the best time to siege again.

God finally stopped snowflakes late last night, so they naturally had to seize this opportunity to win Huining Mansion in one fell swoop.

"King Yan still remembers that when you are following you, what was your conversation with you? And your evaluation of Wanyan Xun?" Wanyan asked incongyi without answering.

"No, I remember." Ye Qing nodded and replied.

"Then the King of Yan must still remember that I once said that Wanyan Xun is a proud and arrogant person." Wanyan Congyi continued.

"He is arrogant, so will he still go out of the city to surrender voluntarily?" Ye Qing asked with a smile, and unconsciously looked at Li Shi'er who was silent.

"Although I'm not sure, it's not impossible." Wanyan Congyi's words were shocking. Li Shi'er on the side suddenly looked up at Wanyan Congyi in surprise. After feeling Li Shi'er's gaze at him, Wanyan Congyi nodded at Li Shi'er, and then continued: "Since the sky was not dawn, I have been watching every move on the wall of Huining Mansion. Although now they seem to be preparing to defend the city because the Yan King's army is about to attack the city, they are now ready to defend the city. But I always feel that their momentum... does not have much determination to fight. On the contrary, in my opinion, it is more like a helpless act under pressure. So I think that there may be major changes in Huining Mansion before the last moment, so I hope that the Yan King can delay the siege."

"Did you see the snowflakes outside getting bigger and bigger?" Ye Qing hung the Yanfeng knife around her waist and stared at Wanyan Congyi and asked in a deep voice.

Wanyan looked down from Yi and looked at the remaining snow on his body, nodding and said, "I know that it is indeed inappropriate to ask King Yan to delay the siege at this time. Naturally, I also know that the snow outside is getting heavier and heavier now. It is estimated that within half an hour, it is difficult to see clearly the scene of standing on the opposite side of the city. For the slaves of Qi Shilie, the slaves of the gods, Wanyan Chen, and the siege army dominated by Qi Shilie Baishan, it undoubtedly increased the difficulty of siege. But I think..."

"Since you know, do you still think we can delay? If you delay for one more day, our 100,000 soldiers will freeze for one more day in this deserted mountain. Do you know that since you arrived at Ningfu City, there will be reports of soldiers frozen to death reported to me every day?" Ye Qing's expression was already a little displeased.

"But compared to the soldiers who died in battle, aren't there a very small number of soldiers who died of freezing to death? If the King of Yan insists on siegeing the city at this moment, even if it only takes one hour to attack the city, no, even if it is only half an envoy, I'm afraid that the soldiers who died of fighting will have countless more soldiers who died of freezing to death, right? So why didn't the King of Yan wait? And I guess, it shouldn't be past noon. Even if King of Yan doesn't take the initiative to attack the city, they may also take the initiative to surrender. Nothing else, just because..."

Wanyan Congyi looked at Ye Qing's left hand slowly holding the hilt of the Yanling Knife. He went to Wuzhou with Wanyan Jing and Ye Qing, and then on the way back to Yanjing, he asked curiously why Wanyan Jing, who was right-handed, wanted to hold the knife with his left hand while practicing.

At that time, Wanyan Jing once told him mysteriously that this was a secret, because Ye Qing was like this. In the eyes of others, or in the inherent concept of most people, a person who is used to holding a knife in his right hand will definitely be worse than a right hand.

But Ye Qing was just the opposite. Although he was indeed a real right-handed man, Ye Qing's left-handed sword was even more powerful than the right-handed sword. It was precisely because of this that Wanyan Jing began to imitate Ye Qing to use the left-handed sword as a killer weapon.

But unfortunately, Wanyan Jing finally failed to persevere because of the inheritance of the throne and other reasons, which made his dream left-hand killer move never realize it.

So Wanyan Congyi, who knew Ye Qing's secret, saw Ye Qing slowly holding the handle of the Yanling Knife on his waist with his left hand, unconsciously took two steps back immediately. Then he felt as if he had hit a wall and turned around quickly. He saw Jia She sneered and stood behind him at some point, blocking his retreat.

Seeing this scene, Ye Qing looked a little surprised and a little stunned. Obviously, he didn't expect that Wanyan Congyi would actually know the secret that he, a very few people, knew it. After all, those who knew this secret on the battlefield were dead in the end, and only a very small number of living people knew it.

But Wanyan actually knew from Yi, which made Ye Qing feel a little surprised.

After Wanyan Congyi looked at Ye Qing's left hand slowly loosening the hilt, he hurriedly said: "The King of Yan is not trying to peek at the Prince of Yan's privacy, but... it was when he and the Emperor returned to Yanjing from Wuzhou, the Emperor had practiced, so he only knew about it."

After talking about this, because the retreat was blocked by Jia She, Wanyan, who was a little nervous, hurriedly asked for help, looked at Li Shier.

Li Shi'er took a deep breath and said lightly: "Yes, the late emperor did secretly practice left-hand sword in the palace, but later because of the numerous political affairs in the court, he did not... go on a journey."

When Li Shi'er said this, his mind would unconsciously come to mind. At that time, Wanyan Jing was approaching her mysteriously, and then said to her ear: This is my killer move to save my life, do you know? Ye Qing from Song Ting looks right-handed, right? But his left hand is really powerful, even more powerful than his right hand. It would be great if I could use the knife to practice my left hand to the point of his level.

Although Li Shi'er, who was with Wanyan Jingchu, had never seen Ye Qing's face, she heard the word Ye Qing almost every day from Wanyan Jing's mouth. In Wanyan Jing's words, there was no lack of praise and admiration for Ye Qing. At that time, Li Shi'er, who was also young and had just fallen in love, was unknowingly filled with jealousy and dissatisfaction with Ye Qing. After all, she was really jealous. Ye Qing actually occupied a greater weight in Wanyan Jing's heart than her future queen.

So this is also an important reason why Ye Qing had never looked good to Li Shi'er when he first met him.

After hearing Li Shi'er explain for her, Wanyan Congyi instantly breathed a sigh of relief. Li Shi'er obviously did not forget the life-saving grace of Li Shi'er in Long'an. This also made Wanyan Congyi, who escaped, believe more that even after the fall of the Jin Dynasty, he, his brothers and family, would probably live a better life than others.

"The King of Yan calmed down. The reason why he blocked the King of Yan from attacking the city was that he did not want to see the casualties caused by the attacking city, except because the King of Yan cherished the lives of his soldiers..." Wanyan Congyi explained to Ye Qing again.

Ye Qing interrupted without waiting for him to finish speaking, "Since it's a war, how can there be no reason to die?"

"But did King Yan take down Long'an City without consuming one soldier?" Wanyan Congyi once again mustered up his courage and straightened his chest and said to the point of tit: "Why didn't King Yan want to take down Huining Mansion without consuming one soldier?"

Then Wanyan Congyi did not wait for Ye Qing to speak again, because he was even more afraid that Ye Qing would suddenly lose patience with him, so he hurriedly continued: "King Yan, believe me, with Wanyan Xun's arrogant personality, he would never fight until the last soldiers would admit defeat. People with arrogant hearts often do extreme actions in desperate situations, and Wanyan Xun is even more so, even... I wouldn't even find it strange if Wanyan Xun suddenly committed suicide in the palace. So, King Yan, after noon, we will see if we should use the live life of soldiers to exchange for the gate of Huining Mansion to open?"

This time, before Ye Qing asked again, Li Shi'er said in a trembling voice: "You said Wanyan Xun might commit suicide?"

Ye Qing turned his head and looked at Li Shi'er, but he saw that Li Shi'er's expression was a little disappointed and unwilling.

After hesitating, Wanyan nodded firmly and said, "I even think that this is the most likely. It is easy to break even if it is too tough. Wanyan Xun is such a person. He can enjoy the infinite sense of accomplishment brought by success, but he absolutely cannot accept the frustration after failure. His arrogant personality will make him unable to face you and the reality of the fall of the Great Jin Kingdom. Therefore, I guess that the pressure caused by the King of Yan led a hundred thousand troops to Huining Mansion is enough to make Wanyan Xun do extreme actions in despair."

After Wanyan Congyi finished speaking, he looked at Ye Qing again, and then said solemnly and firmly: "I, Wanyan Congyi, are willing to use the head to guarantee it. As long as the King of Yan is willing to drag it until noon... No, it will be delayed until dark, and at the latest until dark, even if Huining Mansion will not open the gate for King Yan, there will definitely be good news for King Yan. This is definitely much more cost-effective than King Yan's use of countless lives to attack the city now. Now that the war is coming to an end, King Yan cherishes the lives of soldiers, so... why can't we wait more..."

Before Wanyan finished speaking, Jia Jinye and Feng Zhangge led a soldier covered in wind and snow, like a piece of ice, and ran in: "King Yan, Changling is making a quick sound."

Ye Qing reached out to take it, frowned and looked at the spy whose eyebrows, eyelashes and even nostrils were covered with ice and snow, and walked up to him and said, "How many of you have sent letters in total, and how many are there?"

"Returning to King Yan, General Yu Yunwen ordered us forty-seven of us to send letters to King Yan. Now... there are only thirteen people left." The spy's hands were red, and Ye Qing held them in his hand, as if he was holding a solid piece of ice.

After taking a deep breath, I gently patted the spy's shoulder, and the armor made a crisp sound of hardness after being frozen: "Thank you for your hard work, go down and have a good rest. I will arrange for someone else to send it back to Yu Yunwen."

The spy was supported by Jia Jinye and Feng Zhang brother, and walked out of the central army tent. Ye Qing ignored Wanyan Congyi who was beside him and opened the letter sent by Yu Yunwen. At this time, whether it was Li Shi'er or Wanyan Congyi, his eyes were always looking at Ye Qing's expression and the smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth. While the smile gradually spread, it looked particularly domineering and shocking.

"The world's situation has been settled!" Ye Qing slowly put away the letter, and his whole body seemed particularly energetic.
