Su Yan knew that the two of them would definitely refute, so he simply interrupted the two: "I know what you think. He thinks that there will be no result when attacking Tianshui City, and he will put himself in danger."
"But I can tell you the current situation very unfairly. If we cannot resolve the danger of Liaozhou City, then at most half a month, Liaozhou City will be destroyed, and Liaozhou City will be destroyed. As a result, you know that Liaozhou will be trapped. I Not to mention whether we will die in battle, the dynasty will suffer such a great shame. We will undoubtedly die. All the generals and officials in Liaozhou will be buried with us."
Sure enough, as soon as Su Yan finished speaking, Sun Yishan's face changed drastically. He was not a fool, so he naturally knew the power of it and began to think about it.
Fang Siliu also frowned. She did not object to Su Yan's plan, but did not support it. After all, it was too risky. With Sun Yishan sitting here, the matter in Qingqiu City was not something she could say.
"Then can't we go directly to Liaozhou City to rescue him?" Sun Yishan raised his head and asked.
"I have said this just now. Now the other party has 200,000 troops, and they are still elite soldiers who have been through the battlefield for a long time. How many can we go, 20,000, and 40,000, is not enough to stuff people's teeth. It's nothing more than going there. Looking for death,” Su Yan sneered, rejecting Sun Yishan’s idea.
Sun Yishan's expression stopped, then sighed and asked again: "Then isn't it the same for us to go to Tianshui City?"
"Of course it's different," Su Yan's voice suddenly became loud: "Now Kongsang has captured Liaozhou City by the right time, and he has already suppressed all the people who can be adjusted. According to my estimates and spies' rewards, the guards of Tianshui City are now at the custodians. It's only more than 10,000, at most 20,000, and we will have 20,000, which may not be self-destruction,"
"You know the city defense of Tianshui City. Don't say that we have 20,000 people, even 60,000 people can't catch it," Sun Yishan thought for a while, and then asked.
"We are not trying to conquer Tianshui City, but to cause a crisis to Tianshui City and force the enemy troops outside Liaozhou City to return to aid. As long as the other party retreats, we will succeed."
After Su Yan said this, Sun Yishan was already a little moved. Then he looked at Fang Siliu, then sighed and said, "Is General Su really sure?"
"Half," Su Yan spread his hands straightforwardly, and before Sun Yishan asked again, he spoke directly: "If you don't do this, please tell me what way we have, or, how do you do it? Save all of us now,"
Su Yan's words were said to the extreme. Sun Yishan's face looked as ugly as if he had eaten a fly. He disagreed with Su Yan's idea, but he could not find a reason to disagree, because now that was the case, they did have no way out.
"Sir, what Su Yan said makes sense. Now we have no way out,"
Fang Siliu, who had never spoken, finally spoke up and persuaded Sun Yishan.
Seeing her speak, Sun Yishan also turned his head and looked at her, then waved his hand heavily, as if he had made up his mind: "Let's follow General Su's wishes,"
"Sir, Gao Yi," Su Yan bowed solemnly and said respectfully.
"It's not for the people of Liaozhou, General Fang, go and prepare quickly," Sun Yishan waved his hand, and then ordered Fang Siliu to follow Su Yan to the military camp.
After some courtesy, the two of them left the county magistrate's mansion and ran to the military camp.
After such a period of rest, Qingqiu City actually recruited soldiers and now has six or seven thousand troops, which surprised Su Yan.
In the end, Fang Siliu also invested a lot of money and transferred five thousand people at one time, but was all veterans, making Su Yan nod secretly.
At noon the next day, a burst of smoke suddenly rose outside the city, causing the defenders on the city to panic and report Fang Siliu.
"Don't be afraid, my people are here," Su Yan patted the defender's shoulder, smiled, and then climbed to the top of the city and looked at the flags flying outside.
"Take your people out of the city," Su Yan didn't want to delay any longer, so he greeted Fang Siliu and took the lead in leaving the city.
"General,"
Seeing Su Yan coming, Zhao Qingcang, Su Fei and others, who were standing at the forefront of the troops, bowed together.
"How about it,"
"According to your instructions, I have brought about almost all the troops that can be mobilized in the two cities, with a total of 20,000," said Zhao Qingcang.
"So many," Su Yan said in surprise, unexpectedly, he could bring so many people out.
"Haha, we have been recruiting soldiers and horses during this period, and the effect is significant," Zhao Qingcang said with a smile.
Su Yan nodded with satisfaction, and then there was a sound of horse hooves from behind. Su Yan turned his head and waited until Qingqiu's men and his gathering together, he no longer delayed and ordered the three armies to set out.
Tianshui City is a big city in Liaozhou, second only to Liaozhou City. It is very large in scale, with more than 200,000 residents. Even in the Guyu Dynasty, it is a big city with a number of numbers.
Tianshui City and Liaozhou City are far away from each other. They should have relaxed each other during the war, but they now fall into the hands of each other and become a fatal place that threatens Liaozhou.
Tianshui City is about 300 miles away from Qingqiu City. Su Yan and others' marching speed is not slow. They arrived at 30 miles outside Tianshui City in the middle of the night, and then set up camp here directly.
With such a big movement outside, the fire illuminated the night sky, Tianshui City naturally would not notice it, but due to the sky, they did not dare to leave the city easily. Looking at the city gate, the originally quiet city suddenly became busy.
The purpose of Su Yan's visit this time was to cause danger to the other party, so he was too lazy to hide and wanted everyone inside to see it, causing panic.
It was already dark and there were not many defenders in the city, so Su Yan predicted that they would not dare to leave the city, so he asked the soldiers to catch fire and cook. It was midnight, and the people patrolling outside were left behind, so he ordered the other soldiers to rest.
Since the opponent's chance of sneak attacking out of the city is not high, Su Yan naturally wants the soldiers to have a good rest. After all, after rushing for a day, he adjusted his condition to the best. By tomorrow, he will naturally occupy the defenders who have been struggling for a night. Advantage.
At the beginning of dawn, the sky had just turned white, Su Yan walked out of the tent and ordered people to start a fire and stove. When it was dawn, the team had already been assembled, and then directly pressed towards Tianshui City. past.
Su Yan's trip included more than 25,000 people in Qingqiu City, and Fang Siliu also knew Su Yan's ability, so he was very relieved to hand over the commander-in-chief to him. This move made Su Yan very good. Appreciate.
The most taboo thing in a war is that the army cannot be united. If there are two commanders who do not give in to each other, then there is no need to fight this battle and will inevitably lose.
However, Fang Siliu handed over power to Su Yan with great magnanimity. This is not only a simplicity in fame and fortune, but also a manifestation of intelligence. Knowing the general, Su Yan appreciates this beautiful female general more.
Su Yan and Fang Siliu walked side by side at the front of the military formation, and the people behind were also marching in a clamor, with their steps neatly, like heavy hammers constantly hitting the drum surface, shaking the ground rumbled and trembling. The defenders inside were restless.
It was still early at this time, but Su Yan had already started the offensive. The defenders inside were in a hurry, and the sound of gathering horns was blew in a mess, and soldiers rushed to the top of the city one after another.
"The thief from Tianshui City came out quickly and died, otherwise the thunder would be gone, and you would all turn into powder,"
Zhao Qingcang stepped forward, came to the top of the city, and shouted loudly.
"Swish swish..."
But what responded to Zhao Qingcang was a dense rain of arrows. Zhao Qingcang waved the long sword in his hand, opening all the arrows, and then took two steps back and cursed: "You cowards can only be the ones who are afraid of you. Do you hide on the city and shoot cold arrows? If you have the ability to come down and fight with your grandfather for 300 rounds, see if your grandfather won't chop off your dog's head,"
"Hmph, where did the remnants of the defeated soldiers come from? Do you know where this is? This is Tianshui City. Even you guys dare to come here to provoke. You really don't know how to live or die."
Suddenly a man stood up at the top of the city, wearing armor, probably an officer in the city.
"Haha, I heard that my grandfather is Zhao Qingcang, Duyang City. There are not a thousand Kongsang dog heads under his command, and there are eight hundred. What kind of thing do you think you are a defeated grandfather, but you dare to call him a defeated general,"
"Hey, Lao Zhao, what are you doing? These cowards dare to show off their verbal prestige. What's the point of asking them to tell them? Don't be too aggressive," Sun Haiqi, the captain of the Archery Camp, said. Shi also spoke, and said with a smile as if he was blamed.
"Yes, yes, you're right, give them some face," Zhao Qingcang also laughed loudly.
Sure enough, the two of them had an effect on their aggressive methods. After this action, the people above were furious and cursed. The officer before could not stand it and rushed directly to the top of the city.
Su Yan stood quietly behind and watched, while Fang Siliu next to him was a little worried and asked, "Will they come out?"
"Of course," Su Yan said for granted, "They are different from ordinary people. They are soldiers and horses from the Kongsang Dynasty. At this moment, they occupy Tianshui City. They are still going through the obstacles and are invincible. They are naturally arrogant in their hearts. We These soldiers will definitely come out,"
Sure enough, in response to Su Yan's words, the east gate of Tianshui City was opened gently after a while, and then a team of people came out one after another, and the formation was opened. The cavalry was in front and the infantry was behind. It was probably five. Six thousand men.
"Well, that guy, dare to come forward and fight with me,"
The officer who was at the top of the city stood at the front, holding a spear in his hand, pointed at Zhao Qingcang and said sternly.
"Why don't you dare?"
Zhao Qingcang snorted coldly, then he clamped his legs and the horse's belly. The war horse Herrol sounded for a long time, and then ran straight towards the man.
"drive,"
The man also shouted loudly and rushed towards the field. The spear in his hand stood up high, and the tip of the spear was in the sun, and the cold light blew.
"Clang..."
The other party came forward with a spear, and Zhao Qingcang suddenly stopped suddenly, made a mistake, avoided the opponent's spear, turned the long sword in his hand, and directly swung the gun in front of the man's palm.
