Chapter 980 Sudden Secret Letter (3)
Ye Li smiled apologetically and said, "I'm too impatient." She actually didn't have much experience in real war, and she only had a quick battle and a quick decision in the few times. Lu Jinxian's current plan is obviously to slowly grind with Mo Jingli, which made Ye Li, who had always been used to being hit by one blow, feel a little uncomfortable. However, she quickly understood her own problem and tried her best to adjust.
Lu Jinxian smiled and said, "The princess is so serious. It is not impossible to deal with all her strength to severely damage Mo Jingli. However, it is extremely difficult to achieve the complete annihilation record of Huifeng Valley. If the remaining soldiers of the Chu army escape, I am afraid that they will make a comeback in a short while." Instead of doing so, it is better to take it slowly and truly fight until Mo Jingli can't be beaten.
Ye Li nodded and said, "I understand, thank you for the reminder of the general."
Lu Jinxian hurriedly said that he didn't dare. Ye Li smiled on his lips, but he began to think silently in his heart that the chess piece he had set up in Nanjing was time to use. Lu Jinxian said it was right. Instead of trying hard to make Mo Jingli come back, he would not do anything to do it and do his best in one battle.
In the Chu army's tent, Mo Jingli, who was criticizing the memo, shivered for no reason, and a trace of doubt flashed across his gloomy face, and he pulled the bright yellow cloak on his body.
Two days later, in the decisive battle between the Mo family army and the Chu army's Western Route Army, the Chu army finally could no longer support the Mo family army's offensive, and the defeat was out of control. Zhao Lian, the commander of the Western Route Army, was finally seriously injured and captured.
Fighting with the Chu army is different from being with Xiling Beirong. After all, in addition to the confrontation between the upper-class rulers, there is no difference between ordinary Chu soldiers and the Mo family soldiers, as well as the people of the Great Chu, and the people of the Northwest. They never thought that they would be enemies that will never die after the breakup between the Mo family and the Great Chu. Therefore, when so many people of the Great Chu fled to the northwest, the people of the Northwest accepted them without any grudges, because they were originally a family. Just as the people of the Northwest never thought that the Ding Prince's Mansion would only live in the small world in the northwest from now on. The people of the Great Chu never thought that the Ding Prince's Mansion and the Mo family would abandon them.
Therefore, in fact, both sides still retained some strength after this battle. Killing each other is not a pleasant thing. Whether it is the Mo family or the Chu army, they generally do not kill prisoners or seriously injured soldiers of the enemy. When the Chu army still cannot defeat the Mo family army after doing their best, the soldiers at the bottom of the class put down their weapons and surrendered without any obstacles.
Zhao Lian's failure made Mo Jingli extremely irritable. Facing the Mo family army led by Lu Jinxian and Ye Li who were pressing forward step by step, Mo Jingli "decisively" left his troops and stationed at Hangu Pass, and fled before Ye Li and others arrived. This made the Mo family army speechless. Yun Ting couldn't turn his mind and refused to take a step back when he died. Mo Jingli retreated too quickly. With the natural danger of Hangu Pass, if the command was properly, it would be absolutely no problem to guard for at least two or three months. By then, the reinforcements from the rear of the Chu army should arrive.
Although Mo Jingli's abandonment of the pass hit the morale of the Chu army severely, it also brought a lot of trouble to Ye Li and others. It would be fine if Mo Jingli ran back to Jiangnan and didn't come out, but with Mo Jingli's temper, he would definitely hide and wait for reinforcements to come and make trouble. This would invisibly extend the time when the Mo family army fought against the Chu army.
Sure enough, in less than half a month, when the Chu army reinforced troops approached the north, Mo Jingli emerged again. This time, compared to the ambiguous alliance with Xiling that attacked the Mo family army, this time, Mo Jingli directly issued an edict as the Emperor of Great Chu. He told the world that the Ding Prince's Mansion betrayed the Great Chu, and Mo Xiuyao intended to destroy the Great Chu and ascend the throne to the emperor himself, etc. There was no such thing as Mo Xiuyao's forty-nine crimes, to show that the Great Chu attacked the Ding Prince's Mansion was a righteous and bright move and followed the destiny of heaven.
This kind of thing naturally cannot affect the Mo family army. Ye Li just glanced at the notice she agreed to by the Mo family army and handed it to Yun Ting. After reading it, Yun Ting snorted disdainfully and took it to the table to placing the foot. If the prince was interested in the throne, he would have ascended the throne long ago. Do he still have to wait until he, Mo Jingli, to issue an edict for the expedition? What's more, does Mo Jingli think that everyone in the world has no eyes? The Mo family army has never snatched an inch of land from the hands of Da Chu. Now that the Mo family army has been severing relations with Da Chu for a long time, the Ding Palace is definitely tenable in any aspect.
Speaking of this, Yun Ting had to lament the prince's foresight. You should know that the Central Plains does not need foreign barbarians. They claim to be etiquette and civilians, both the court and the people of Daming, attach great importance to etiquette and law. If the Ding Prince's Mansion directly sent troops to the Great Chu, even if the Mo family army finally unified the world, with the relationship between the Ding Prince's Mansion and the Great Chu, the Ding Prince would inevitably be criticized in history books in the future.
"Report to the Princess, the Three Young Master Feng's secret letter!" Just as everyone was mocking Mo Jingli's actions disdainfully, the voice of the guards sounded outside the tent.
Ye Li frowned slightly and said, "Feng San? Take it in?" Feng Zhiyao was with Mo Xiuyao. Generally, Feng Zhiyao would not write to her alone. Unless... something happened with Feng Zhiyao's ability or rights that could not be controlled. Ye Li's heart sank slightly, and she raised her hand to take the letter presented by the guard.
The envelope is sealed with fire lacquer, and the most advanced secret seal of the Dingwang Mansion is also stamped on the seal, which shows that the content in this letter is absolutely extraordinary.
After calming down, Ye Li opened the envelope and glanced, holding the letter paper and his hand trembled slightly, and the letter paper in his hand fell to the ground. Ye Li couldn't help but softly fell into the chair. Yun Ting and others who were sitting on the side were startled and rushed forward, "Princess?"
