Chapter 689 Two Armies Confrontation (3)
Rong Jin shrugged, retrieved the dagger since he was a child, and pulled it out.With a flick of his hand, he threw it towards Wei Wuji.

The dagger carried Rong Jin's deep inner strength, and it slashed across the iron chain on Wei Wuji's body, sparking a spark.But the iron chain also broke in response.Wei Wuji took off the iron chains on his body, raised his hand to wipe the place where the sparks splashed on his face felt a little painful, squinted his eyes and said, "Did you do it on purpose?"

Rong Jin said leisurely: "No, I did it on purpose." Without waiting for Wei Wuji to get angry, Rong Jin said: "I leave the dagger to you. When you are about to break the city, you go to save Qingqing. You can seize the opportunity yourself." After finishing speaking, he felt resentful He gave Wei Wuji a disgusted look.If he didn't have to appear on the battlefield, he wouldn't worry about letting Wei Wuji rescue Qingqing.

Soon, Rong Jin flashed out from the cell, and unlocked the acupuncture points of the two guards.After a while, the two guards opened their eyes, confused for a moment.Soon one of them rushed into the cell, and he was secretly relieved when he saw that the three people in the cell were still sitting safe and sound dozing in the corner, and the two masters were still tightly bound with iron chains. walked out.

For two days in a row, the fighting was fierce.However, compared to the Western Army with high morale, the Huaguo defenders with declining morale seemed a bit weak in succession.Murong Ke came down from the tower worriedly, and when he returned to the general's mansion, his brows were deeply furrowed, and he turned around anxiously.

Regardless of whether it was true that Mu Qingyi said that the Northern Han Dynasty would also send troops to Huaguo or it was just to sow discord, it was obviously too late now.It will take two days for the nearest reinforcements to arrive, and the border city is obviously doomed to collapse.

"My lord..." The staff around me looked at Murong Ke who was circling in the lobby, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, I'm afraid the border town can't be defended anymore. Please leave here as soon as possible!"

Murong Ke said angrily: "Let's go?! Do you think this king doesn't want to leave? But how can I explain to my father when I go back? If the border city is broken, do you think the fourth brother and his gang will let me go after returning to the capital?"

But if you don't go to the border town, you will be ruined.At that time, Hua Guo would be even more ashamed if a prince became a prisoner of war.

After frowning and pondering for a long time, the staff finally said: "The lord...the lord said that he has important news to report to His Majesty. Didn't Prime Minister Mu say that Ge Shuhan secretly approached the border?"

"If it's true, I'm afraid it's over now." Murong Ke frowned.

The aide shook his head and smiled: "No. My lord, it doesn't matter whether it's late or not. If it's true, it's good. If it's false, the lord is just deceived. But he is also loyal to His Majesty." .If it's not too late, the prince will have made great contributions. Even if it's late, how would we know if we're far away in the border town?"

"The notebook I sent back a few days ago..."

"How can there be a prince who will personally report the excerpt clearly and in detail?" The staff disagreed.Murong Ke's face brightened, he nodded and said, "You are right."

"Since this is the case, my lord, let's leave as soon as possible. Seeing that the city is about to be destroyed, it should be sooner rather than later." The staff said: "Just... I don't know how the lord is going to deal with Xiyuemu and others?"

Murong Ke frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Wei Wuji and Xia Xiuzhu are superb martial arts, if they bring them back to Beijing, they will definitely be troublesome. Why don't we kill them?"

"This..." the staff shook his head and said, "If these people are killed, the prince will offend Xiyue and the Northern Han Dynasty in one fell swoop. No matter whether the Three Kingdoms are in war or peace in the future, the prince may..."

Murong Ke's heart trembled, and he was able to watch this matter in a moment of anxiety.After thinking for a moment, Murong Ke said: "These four people should be handed over to General Fang. At a critical moment, maybe these people are still useful."

"My lord is wise."

"Go get ready, we'll leave for Beijing in half an hour!" Murong Ke stood up and said resolutely.

"Yes."

Murong Ke and his party quickly left the already crumbling Cheng, but they didn't know that their departure made the already sluggish military morale even more dispirited.Although General Fang, the defender of the border town, tried his best to hide the news, the Xiyue spies hidden in the city quickly spread the news to the whole city.

Looking at the listless soldiers and looking at the wolf-like Xiyue army below the city tower, General Fang's face was also solemn.

"General... I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it anymore!" A lieutenant hurriedly came to report, his face was full of exhaustion, "The Xiyue Army's offensive is too fierce! It's about to be overwhelmed!"

"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it!" General Fang gritted his teeth.Either way, it was death, he would rather be killed by the enemy if he broke through, or be executed by His Majesty for the crime of losing his land.

The deputy general thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "King Fu left those hostages behind when he left. General, see if you can use these people to temporarily block the West Army for a while?"

Hearing this, General Fang's heart moved, and he said hesitantly: "I heard that Emperor Xiyue is infatuated with Mu Qingyi, but..." But it's hard to say how much of this sincerity is true and how much is false.Can the feelings of the emperor's family be taken seriously?
The lieutenant general said, "Why don't you try it? Anyway, Mu Qingyi is always the Prime Minister of Xiyue." Now they have no other way, they can only treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor.

General Fang nodded, waved and said, "Go and bring Mu Qingyi here."

After a while, Mu Qingyi was escorted to the city wall.General Fang took a look at Mu Qingyi, who looked a bit embarrassed but still calm, and said in a deep voice, "Prime Minister Mu, I was going to be rude."

Mu Qingyi also looked at the middle-aged general in front of him, and said with a light smile: "The two armies are in front of the battle, and each is its master. Don't dare."

General Fang said in a deep voice: "Today, Fang is threatening the enemy army with a female class, but... he has no choice but to do it. Please forgive me, Prime Minister Mu. Let's go over there!"

With a wave of his hand, Mu Qingyi was escorted to the tower by two soldiers.Watching the melee between the two armies below the city tower, the blood flowed like a river.Mu Qingyi sighed slightly.This was the first time she had seen a real battlefield, and she didn't have any joy and ambition in her heart that the Xida army would win.A sense of bleakness and sadness.In fact, she is just an ordinary woman. Even though she is scheming and strategizing in every possible way, she seldom faces the blood directly.Except this time on the way back to Xiyue from Huaguo capital, she has been well protected.Moreover, those masters along the way were out of greed, but the soldiers of the two armies who died in the battle were all innocent.In fact, this war has nothing to do with them, they are for other people's greed and ambition.

Soon, the commander of Xiyue in the distance obviously also saw the people on the tower.The Xiyue Army immediately called for gold and withdrew its troops.The people on the city tower also breathed a sigh of relief, and they really couldn't hold on if the fight continued. Anyway, it's good to be able to catch a moment of respite.

"Fang! Is he looking for death first?" Under the flag, Rong Jin stared at the slender woman in white on the tower, and said through gritted teeth.
