Chapter 695 Six Hundred and Ninety-Five

Jizhou, Qinghe

Dong Jichuan smiled and congratulated Qin Heng, "General, when we take Pingyuannan, Yangping and Weiyi, the whole Jizhou will belong to Pingzhou."

Qin Heng nodded, "Yes." Their war progressed very quickly this time.

Dong Jichuan proposed, "General, I suggest that we take advantage of the victory and take down the remaining cities in Jizhou as soon as possible."

Qin Heng agreed, "Okay, we will send troops to Yangping tomorrow and try to take down these places as soon as possible."

He just went to the military camp and found that the morale of the soldiers was still high because of the successive victories.

Qin Heng's combat goal was very clear. While Dali and Xianbei had not yet reacted and had no response strategy, he expanded as much as possible and occupied as much territory as possible.

The third brother Qin Zhao had already led his troops to Qingzhou, and the Sun family army led by Sun Congyi also set off to Qingzhou. They also had to speed up their progress.

Qin Heng told his young generals, "Remind the soldiers, this is a tough battle." Yang Yingqin and Dong Guowei deployed defenses in Yangping and the southern part of the plain, and they must have been heavily defended.

Young general Xiao Kun replied in a sonorous voice, "General, don't worry."

Now their morale is high and sharp, and it is easy to overcome all obstacles.

Pingyang

Qin Heng led the army to the city again.

This time, Yang Yingqin and Dong Guowei ordered people to open the city gates.

Qin Heng and Dong Jichuan looked at each other. What is Dali doing?

"General Yang, General Dong, what do you mean?"

Yang Yingqin said loudly, "This general knows that this city can't stop you."

Qin Heng: So you open the door to welcome guests?

Dong Jichuan said, "Then we will accept it with pleasure?"

Yang Yingqin's mouth twitched, pretending not to hear. At his command, soldiers carried out countless wounded from the city, including soldiers and civilians. But without exception, they were all groaning in pain.

Between Yang Yingqin and Dong Guowei, there was an old man standing. This man was none other than the great scholar Zhang Yong.

Seeing this scene, Qin Heng and Dong Jichuan looked at each other and thought, here they come.

Zhang Yong spoke first, "General Qin, do you know me?"

"Of course I know you, the great scholar Zhang Shanzhang."

Zhang Yong nodded, "General Qin, is this battle necessary?"

Qin Heng: "Pingzhou must take Jizhou."

At this time, Zhang Yong said with a compassionate face, "General Qin, Pingzhou has a weapon like explosives in hand, and can take all the land within sight."

"However, using explosives on compatriots is really against the harmony of nature."

"We are of the same roots, why are we so anxious to fight each other?"

Qin Heng laughed. When the two armies were fighting, using explosives was against the harmony of nature. Did they think that Pingzhou would cut off an arm after saying that?

Some generals behind Qin Heng thought, Dali brought its own great scholar to the front line, and bullied their Lord Lu who didn't come to the front line, right?

At this time, Dong Jichuan appeared, shaking his fan and asked, "Zhang Daru, your Dali spies took advantage of our governor's delivery to murder the governor, wanting to kill her twice, not to mention that it is against the harmony of heaven?"

This question made Zhang Yong, Yang Yingqin, Dong Guowei and others stunned.

"Is there any misunderstanding in this?" Zhang Yong just hoped that Pingzhou did not have definite evidence.

"There is no misunderstanding, the mastermind behind the scenes is Xie Zhan, the military commander of your Dali."

Hearing this, Zhang Yong, Yang Yingqin and Dong Guowei took a breath and couldn't help looking at each other. Such a big hat was put on Xie Zhan, the military commander of Dali. Does this mean that they don't want him to live?

"But as far as I know, Governor Lu's mother and daughter are safe, and there is nothing wrong." Zhang Yong frowned.

Dong Jichuan put away his fan and said with a serious face, "If the victim was the emperor of Dali, you would not have this attitude."

"As the saying goes, when the emperor is angry, corpses will be scattered all over the place."

"In the eyes of our Pingzhou people, our Pingzhou governor is no worse than your Dali emperor."

"So, we in Pingzhou must ask for an explanation for the governor."

Hearing this, Zhang Yong said angrily, "General Qin, Dali has already paid the price for this matter."

"Isn't half of Jizhou enough to make amends?"

"Can't Governor Lu calm down?"

"Can't you stop killing people?"

"Are you going to let the war sweep across the whole of Dali?"

Dong Jichuan: "Your spies from Dali almost killed our governor. Even if the governor and his daughter are safe in the end, it's God's blessing. But how can most of Jizhou pay the price?"

Zhang Yong stared at Qin Heng, "Qin Heng, do you really want to raise troops and bring disaster to the world just for your own personal grudge?"

Dong Jichuan rolled his eyes. At the last minute, he wanted to spy on the military situation.

Qin Heng: "I have no comment on this question!"

"Look!" Zhang Yong turned around and pointed at the people and soldiers in Pingyang behind him, saying, "These people were the people protected by your Qin family. Can you bear to let them die under the explosives, so miserably? How many more murders do you want to commit?"

Dong Jichuan on the side replied, "We can't bear it, so you Dali can open the city gates and let the people choose to continue to be the people protected by our Qin family."

Dong Jichuan, Yang Yingqin: ...

Finally, Zhang Yong asked Qin Heng, "After saying so much, do you want to fight this battle?"

"Yes."

Zhang Yong said angrily, "Stubborn!"

After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and left.

"Okay, everyone, prepare to attack the city!" Qin Heng waved the flag in his hand.

Hearing this, the soldiers behind him instantly became alert. Their entire army was well fed, and they were not here to gossip about their wives!

Generals Dong Guowei and Yang Yingqin reacted quickly. Under their command, archers suppressed the city from high above, while people outside the city quickly returned to the city and then worked together to close the gate.

The shouts and screams at the city gate shook the sky.

Dong Guowei and Yang Yingqin sat in a temporary military tent, looking very solemn.

Yang Yingqin said, "Pingzhou is so angry, is there any hidden secret inside?"

Dong Guowei shook his head, "This may not be an excuse for Pingzhou to send troops to Dali."

Yang Yingqin: "Let someone go and find out."

Later, they asked someone to find out, and soon got the result.

Perhaps Pingzhou did not mean to hide it. It turned out that Lu Songli was injured during childbirth because of the spies.

Hearing this news, both Dong Guowei and Yang Yingqin, two grown men, could not help but frown. There are many explanations for the injury during childbirth.

Lu Songli's physical foundation was not good to begin with, which was not good for offspring. This was a well-known fact. At the beginning, the Xie family rejected the engagement because of this.

Dong Guowei sighed, "If the first child was a son, the Qin family and the Lu family would not be so angry."

Yang Yingqin also nodded.

Now that Lu Songli is the governor, she gave birth to a daughter in her first pregnancy, and she was injured. The possibility of being happy again is very small.

No wonder the Qin family is so angry.

Those who knew the inside story thought they had guessed the secret thoughts of the Qin and Lu families, so they started the war.
