The atmosphere was very depressing, but this was a fact. The enemy was at the city and after a series of battles, both of them were a little overwhelmed. After all, the gap in strength was too big.
"General, look,"
Yang Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up and he pointed in the direction of Kongsang Military Camp ahead.
Li Tianyang was stunned, and then looked over there, his eyes narrowed slightly, and after a long time he said, "Look at their camp's frequent troops, are they going to attack?"
"It doesn't look like that," Yang Yuan suddenly spoke.
"Come," Li Tianyang suddenly turned his head and called a guard, and then ordered: "Send someone to see what's going on,"
“As for orders,”
Half an hour later, a team of scouts suddenly ran into the city, then ran all the way to the top of the city, saluting Li Tianyang and saying, "Report to General, the enemy suddenly retreated three hours ago, leaving an empty camp, and now it has withdrawn. Thirty miles away.”
"How is it possible to retreat?" Li Tianyang grabbed the scout, unable to believe his words.
"I don't know either, anyway, the other party has indeed retreated,"
"Is there a fraud that wants to lure us out of the city?" Li Tianyang asked in confusion. It was not that he believed it. It was really weird. Although the opponent suffered heavy losses after a series of wars, he was still in sight of victory and would not retreat for no reason.
"No, if there is an ambush, it wouldn't be so thorough," Yang Yuan shook his head, believing that the other party had indeed retreated.
"Then what's going on, it doesn't make sense,"
Li Tianyang looked at Yang Yuan in a little surprised, and Yang Yuan also smiled bitterly, not knowing what was going on.
"No matter what, it is a good thing for the other party to retreat. At least it will solve the danger in Liaozhou. Let's go back first."
After letting go of doubts, Li Tianyang felt an ecstasy in his heart. The stone that was almost suffocating in his heart finally put down, without mentioning how comfortable it was.
As soon as the two of them returned to the mansion, a guard hurried over and said to Li Tianyang: "Report to you, General, I'm going to send me a letter."
"Who's my name?" Li Tianyang took the letter and asked in confusion.
"Duyang City, General Su Yan,"
"Su Yan," Li Tianyang and Yang Yuan said in surprise. After looking at each other, Li Tianyang asked the guard to retreat, and opened the letter and read it carefully.
"Haha...What a Su Yan,"
After reading it, Li Tianyang suddenly burst into laughter. His laughter was rough and echoing in the mansion, which surprised everyone.
"General, what's going on?"
Yang Yuan was also surprised and asked.
"I said why didn't the troops from Duyang City be seen in the army that came to aid? It turned out that they were going to attack Tianshui City."
"Tianshui City," Yang Yuan frowned, and then his eyes suddenly lit up: "Is it because of this that the enemy retreated?"
"Yes, Su Yan led his troops to attack Tianshui City, leaving him in a crisis. The defenders had no choice but to ask for help from the Kongsang army outside us, which led to the other party retreating. Let's see for yourself."
Li Tianyang handed the letter to Yang Yuan, and then sat down and savored the tea with a relaxed expression.
"So that's the case. This Su Yan is really brave."
After reading it, Yang Yuan laughed and sighed, but he was still a little confused and asked, "According to the letter, Su Yan only has 30,000 troops, so it's better to let all the soldiers and horses outside return to the rescue. ”
"Isn't this simple? Su Yanbu's suspicious soldiers. The defenders of Tianshui City could not understand how many reinforcements he had. Kongsang went deep into my ancient Yu hinterland, and the food and grass used were stored in Tianshui City. That's theirs The lifeline is that they cannot retreat.”
"If you don't talk about anything else, isn't this guy's thoughts a bit too terrifying?" After a moment of silence, Yang Yuan said this with a complicated expression.
"We use troops like gods, our thoughts are like wild imaginations, we have the ability and courage, but we are still young and we still lack details, but in time, we will become a famous general,"
Yang Yuan took a breath, but unexpectedly, Li Tianyang had such a high evaluation of Su Yan, and he was shocked.
"I didn't expect that Gu Yu would have produced a general. It's a blessing for the dynasty,"
Li Tianyang had been in a military life, and he was naturally terrible when looking at people. As soon as Fang sent troops, Su Yan deduced the actions of both sides clearly. Each step was within his own expectations. This thought was really terrifying.
"Then what should we do now," Yang Yuan returned to the question before him after sighing.
"How can I waste his kindness after making Su Yan work hard for so long?" Li Tianyang suddenly laughed and his eyes were clear: "I sent an order to order all the troops near Tianshui City to gather in Tianshui City to control Su Yan , asked him to defeat Tianshui City, and let reinforcements from all sides outside gather, chase me, pull the rear of Kongsang's army, and then ordered the cities along the way to hold them back at all costs. Steps,"
"General, isn't it a bit too risky to do this?" Yang Yuan frowned.
"You are brave and you are starving to death. Do you understand? Besides, the fighter will be fleeting. If you miss this, it will be difficult to find an opportunity again."
"Abide by the order," Yang Yuan didn't say much. He knew that this was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime fighter, and he was also a little excited.
Orders came from the general's mansion, and then messengers quickly left the city and ran towards all directions. Yang Yuan also quickly organized an army and rushed towards the direction of the retreat of the Kongsang army.
In just one day, many cities in Tianshui City had received orders from Liaozhou, gathered their troops and headed straight for Tianshui City. On that night, the first army gathered with Su Yan. , and then there were people coming one after another.
At noon the next day, more than 40,000 troops had already gathered outside Tianshui City. Li Tianyang's order was very clear, and all the useful troops were dispatched to Tianshui City, so some cities almost dispatched more than two-thirds of the troops to help.
These people did not dare to violate Li Tianyang's military orders, and were led by Su Yan and ordered by him.
Su Yan also knew the current situation. More than 100,000 troops were rushing back. Although there were alternate attacks between various people and horses, it could not be stopped for long.
So Su Yan immediately launched an offensive at noon and no longer waited for reinforcements behind him. The soldiers were very fast. He didn't want to waste such a good fighter.
Under Su Yan's arrangement, the forty thousand people slowly pressed towards Tianshui City. The siege equipment was dispatched together, and the roar continued. In a short while, the urn city was completely broken, and it rushed towards the walls of Tianshui City like dark clouds. The most fierce offensive since the war started, and success or failure was in one fell swoop.
