Chapter 927
Because he didn't know how Qi Jiguang's martial arts were, Yang Zaixing worried that he would not be able to take care of Qi Jiguang if he rushed to kill him.Yang Zaixing admired Qi Jiguang, a man who could stand up when the country was in crisis, so he didn't want him to be in any danger, so he wanted to scare Zhao Jun away.

Qi Jiguang saw that Yang Zaixing was full of desire for blood, he must have been fighting for days, and only felt that Yang Zaixing must be weak now.Although Qi Jiguang was no longer afraid of Zhao Jun, when Yang Zaixing opened his mouth, he didn't say much.

The soldiers of the Zhao army looked at each other, Li Jilong knew that Yang Zaixing was powerful, and Li Jilong felt that his martial arts were not weak, but facing Xia Luqi, Shi Wansui, and Wang Yanzhang, none of them were opponents.Yang Zaixing faced the siege of three people with his own strength, not only won the battle, but killed one person instead.

With such strength, Li Jilong was really discouraged. Li Jilong gritted his teeth and shouted: "Retreat!"

After finishing speaking, he urged the horse to turn around and leave.

Yang Zaixing saw that Zhao Jun retreated, but he didn't chase after him. He and Qi Jiguang went to the rear to find the warriors under his command.

"General, why are you in such a mess?" Qi Jiguang asked Yang Zaixing as the two rode on their horses.

"Hehe!" Yang Zaixing said with a smile, "Zhao's army attacked Gaomi fiercely, and our army was in danger, so I rode out of the city alone and raided Zhao's army every day to relieve the pressure on Gaomi City."

"What? The general relieved the pressure on Gaomi City by himself?" Qi Jiguang was surprised when he heard this, and admired Yang Zaixing's bravery.

The two quickly found the warriors brought by Qi Jiguang. There were more than 200 warriors. There were many casualties in the battle with Zhao Jun. Now there are only [-] soldiers left.

Qi Jiguang then told Yang Zaixing in detail about the Japanese pirates' invasion in Donglai: "By the way, General Yang, the Japanese pirates invaded the country in Donglai. In fact, they are from the Japanese country overseas. The Japanese country was captured by other rising heroes. The lord fled to the big man, hoping to get the help of the big man to restore the country. The enemy also sent troops to chase after him, and fought in the Donglai area..."

After hearing this, Yang Zaixing snorted coldly and said, "How dare Japanese pirates invade our territory? One day they will be wiped out. Where are the Japanese soldiers now?"

"It's not far ahead. Just now, I was one of them in Gushan, and the other was behind the valley." Qi Jiguang said, pointing to the burning valley ahead.

"Rush to meet them first." Yang Zaixing urged the horses to look for Uesugi Kenshin's soldiers.

Since there were not many Zhao troops who fled to the front of Taniguchi just now, Uesugi Kenshin quickly wiped out the Zhao troops who fled to the front.Hearing the shouting and killing from the rear, he led his troops to the rear to support, and the two soldiers and horses met on the road.

I heard that the man in front of him, covered in blood and with disheveled hair, is a general of the Han army, and he is the servant of the emperor of the Han Dynasty.After following the Emperor of Han for many years, Uesugi Kenshin dared not be righteous, so he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Although you entered our Han territory without notification, causing many deaths and injuries to the people of Donglai. But there is a reason for the incident, so I won't pursue it at this time. When the war is over, I will report to Your Majesty. Please ask Your Majesty. Now you will temporarily Follow me." Yang Zaixing said to Uesugi Kenshin.

Uesugi Kenshin clasped his hands and said: "Thank you General for your tolerance, but I don't know when this war will end? You are a general who is highly valued by the emperor. Regarding the restoration of our country, please speak to the emperor when the time comes."

Yang Zaixing said in a deep voice: "I can't interfere with this matter, it's all up to His Majesty to decide. In the ancient Han Dynasty, Gou Jian, King of Yue, tried his best to restore the country. You also need to wait patiently. As for when the war will end, Qingzhou will The Zhao army has no food and grass now, and I am raiding every day, their morale has been exhausted, and their retreat may only take a few days. However, His Majesty is still commanding the battle in the north, and the war there may continue for a while."

After hearing this, Uesugi Kenshin couldn't help being a little disappointed, but now he can only count on the big man to help him restore the country, and he can only act with the Han army.

But to the north, Xia Luqi and Hu Yanzan were unable to pursue Yang Zaixing, and were about to lead their troops back to Gaomi, but after only a few miles, they found shouts of killing coming from behind, and when they looked behind, they saw flames rising into the sky.

Hu Yanzan was shocked and said: "What's going on? Why is there such a big fire in the south?"

Xia Luqi's face changed and he shouted: "No, count the time, now General Li Jilong is about to escort the food and grass over, could it be that Yang Zaixing raided General Li Jilong's food delivery team? Let's go over and have a look."

A group of cavalry headed south, and soon found Li Jilong's remnants of defeated soldiers in front of Taniguchi.

"It really is General Li!" Xia Luqi and Hu Yanzan saw Li Jilong, hurriedly rushed forward and asked: "General Li, you were also attacked by Yang Zaixing? Did you lose any food?"

Li Jilong gritted his teeth and said: "It's not Yang Zaixing, but a militia came from somewhere. I was thinking about capturing Yang Zaixing like this on the way. I didn't send out scouts to investigate, but I didn't want to encounter an ambush in this valley and burn all the food and grass. When I sent troops to hunt them down, But they ran into Yang Zaixing again, and the militiamen were escorted away by Yang Zaixing."

When Xia Luqi and Hu Yanzan heard the news, they both looked at each other and didn't know what to do.

Li Jilong murmured: "Now I have to return to Xuzhou to raise food and grass. Go back and tell the lord to stop the siege. Otherwise, Yang Zaixing will raid every day, and our soldiers will sacrifice their lives in vain."

"That's the only way!" Xia Luqi and Hu Yanzan nodded, now they have less than two or three days of food and grass left in the army.It took Li Jilong at least three days to go back and forth to Xuzhou, and it took time to raise food and grass. Their tens of thousands of troops might not be able to eat for a few days, so how could they have the ability to attack the city.

Afterwards, Li Jilong led his troops to go south, while Xia Luqi and Hu Yanzan led their troops back to Gaomi.

At this moment, the two were ready to be scolded by Zhao Guangyi. When they came to the camp, they were stopped by soldiers: "My lord has something important to do at the moment, and he ordered no one to disturb you."

"Yes!" The two nodded and waited outside the tent.

Inside the camp, Zhao Guangyi was talking quietly with a person who came from Yanzhou and was Zhao Guangyi's confidant.

"How is the situation in Yanzhou now?" Zhao Guangyi asked the messenger in a low voice.

Since Fenggao City was under martial law, no one came. The messenger did not come from Fenggao, but came from a nearby city to report to Zhao Guangyi.

The envoy said in a low voice: "My lord, I'm afraid something serious happened in Yanzhou. Fenggao City is now under martial law, you can only enter but not leave, and your confidant's news in the city can't be conveyed at all."

"Huh? Can you go and investigate?" Zhao Guangyi said in a deep voice.

"I have already sent people to investigate. Since your brother doesn't have many confidantes, they are trapped in the city and can't convey any news. We don't know what your brother is thinking now. But a few days ago, Li Dian sent troops to Jinan, and Qi State, we also sent people to inquire, what news do you think we got?" the envoy said in a low voice.

Zhao Guangyi said impatiently: "Say it quickly, don't play charades with me."

"On the Qi side, we found traces of the great war, and there are many solitary graves by the roadside, among which are the corpses of Yanzhou soldiers and horses. They were all shot with arrows, and they are suspected to have been ambushed." The envoy whispered.

"So big brother really sent soldiers and horses to raid Qi State? What about Qi State?" Zhao Guangyi's eyes lit up, and he continued to ask.

"We went deep into Qi to inquire, and found that the Han army in Qi had disappeared. There were rumors among the nearby people that your elder brother personally led an army to raid and was shot and killed by the Han army."

"What?" Zhao Guangyi stood up abruptly, then lowered his voice and asked, "Are you serious at this time?"

The envoy shook his head and said, "We don't know either. Because of the high martial law, you can't get any news from your confidantes who have placed beside Zhao Kuangyin. The news I told the lord was obtained after several days of investigation. "

"Enforce martial law?" Zhao Guangyi's eyes flashed with excitement, and he pondered in his heart: "I'm afraid something really happened there! Now they are enforcing high martial law and sending Li Dian to Jinan. The main force of the heir came back, and my confidantes couldn’t convey the news, so why don’t you want to kill me first and then play it, without even informing me of my brother’s death, and just make my nephew take the throne?”

"No, no matter whether the news is true or not, I have to go back as soon as possible. This Qingzhou can't be taken anymore. I can't waste my troops in vain. If my brother really dies, they will make my nephew the throne. I'm still here to attack Qingzhou. At that time, I really can't fight them." Zhao Guangyi's mind was full of thoughts, and he already had the idea of ​​retreating.
