At the top of the city, when Zhen Siwen saw Yang Xuan launching an attack with five hundred cavalry, he roared: "Open the city gate!"
He ran down the city, mounted his horse, "Hurry!"
The strong men who were carrying debris behind the city gate sped up.
"The deputy is outside, hurry!"
More and more people came to help.
And outside the city.
Yang Jia was stunned, "He actually used 500 cavalry to attack my 20,000-strong army?"
Is this the so-called famous general of the Tang Dynasty that the princess likes?
madman!
Zhan Juan was also quite surprised, "He...what is he thinking?"
However, Dora Zhao hesitated.
Xiao Meng said: "Xiang Wen, let's attack!"
What a great opportunity, five hundred riders, ten thousand and eighty-nine here, rush over, even if Ning Yayun is here, Yang Gou will not be able to escape death!
No!
Yang dogs are valuable only when they are alive.
Once Yang Gou is captured, Ning Xing will be ecstatic.
Most of the time, the Yang dog will be put in a cage and displayed all the way.
The emperor could use this to boost his own prestige and suppress Lin Ya and others.
As participants in this battle, they will become heroes of Daliao and gain both fame and fortune.
Just thinking about it made Xiao Meng wish he could lead his army to attack immediately.
Zhao Dora looked at the fast approaching banner and said: "Yang Gou is cunning in his tactics. What he is best at is to use a small group of troops to contain the enemy from the front, while the main force suddenly double-teams on both wings.
With just one move, he can make his opponent hate him. How many heroes have fallen to his hand?
The three major departments, and that idiot He Lianrong from Tanzhou..."
The reinforcements general said: "That's right. Some of the remnants of the three major armies fled to Daliao, and they mentioned Yang Gou with Yuji's heart. It is said that this person used himself as a bait to lure a large group of people to besiege. The main force suddenly appeared and surrounded the opponent.
…
Just talking about it brings tears to my eyes!"
"But...but the Northern Xinjiang Army can't arrive!" Xiao Meng was still reluctant to give up.
According to normal logic, there are too many things that need to be prepared before the army is dispatched.
Grain and grass, but you have to use a cart to pull the grain and grass, otherwise you have to go there on a light horse. But a light horse cannot travel long distances.
Secondly, the army moves out in a rhythm, and it is impossible for you to rush continuously. In this early winter, if you rush on the road forcefully, you will lose many war horses.
Therefore, according to logic, the Northern Xinjiang Army's army cannot arrive today.
"Attack!"
Xiao Meng encouraged: "That's Yang Gou!"
Zhao Dora looked ahead, with various thoughts swirling in her mind.
Retreat, this battle is in vain.
If the attack can kill Yang Gou, the whole country of Daliao will celebrate.
Except for the eldest princess who would be sad, everyone was happy and excited.
What a credit!
But Yang Gou is cunning with his troops. What if he has ambushes on both wings?
Once the army is deployed, it will be difficult to turn and it will take time. Otherwise, a sudden turn will lead to chaos in the array and even trampling on each other.
Once chaos breaks out, Yang Xuan's five hundred cavalry can defeat them.
Therefore, Dora Zhao needs to weigh the pros and cons.
"If we don't take action, they will come." Xiao Meng said anxiously.
It takes time for an army to expand. In a stationary state, it can only be slaughtered by the opponent or detoured.
Dora Zhao gritted her teeth, "Get ready to attack!"
The reinforcement general sighed, "Be careful! Yang Gou uses his troops to make up for the loss..."
The army arrayed.
Zhao Dora looked left and right, but there was no movement, "Capturing Yang Gou, the first achievement in this battle!"
He pulled out his long knife and pointed forward, "Attack!"
The army attacked.
As soon as we started to speed up, someone exclaimed, "Two wings!"
Sure enough, there was an ambush... Zhao Duola felt cold in her heart, and just about to order a retreat, Xiao Meng laughed wildly, "Hahahaha! Look! Look! What is that? That belongs to Te Niang... Hahahaha!"
Zhao Dora looked carefully and saw a horse rushing out of the smoke on the right wing. It seemed that the horse had lost control.
It doesn't matter if the war horse loses control, but you are just a horse, how can you stir up such a large amount of smoke and dust?
He looked carefully and saw that the horse was dragging branches behind it. As soon as the horse ran away, the branches were dragged on the ground, and the smoke and dust billowed, as if an army was coming.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Zhao Dora laughed wildly, "Is this the end of Yang Gou's skills? What a trick! What a trick! It's a pity that God is not on his side. Quick, don't let him run away!"
There were bursts of laughter from the army.
Behind him, the city gate opened.
Zhen Siwen was the first to ride out.
However, the enemy was so contemptuous that they did not leave any troops to stop them.
Because in Zhao Duola's opinion, being able to kill Yang Gou was more important than Nangui City.
And once Yang Gou is killed, Nangui City still cannot escape from his grasp.
This series of calculations can be called perfect.
"quick!"
Ta-ta-ta!
Everyone was beating their horses wildly.
"Don't let Yang Gou get away!"
Killing Yang Gou is enough for all the soldiers participating in the battle today to make a great contribution.
Rewards, cattle and sheep, population...
Developed!
The two sides keep getting closer.
Yang Xuan raised his sword and said, "Wuda!"
Uda raised the horn and blew it with all his strength.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
As the horn sounded, smoke appeared again on both sides.
Ta-ta-ta!
Immediately, the thunderous sound of horse hooves was heard.
Zhao Dora glanced sideways while galloping.
On the right, a group of cavalry appeared, speeding up. A large flag fluttered in the wind.
"It's the Jiangzi flag!"
Northern Xinjiang general Jiang Cunzhong!
not good!
Zhao Dora looked to the left.
On the left, a large flag appears.
Southern flag!
Information flashed through my mind... Yang Gou's general Nan He!
"This is a trap!"
The reinforcements general screamed: "I said that Yang Gou used his troops to make up for it. You thought he was making up for it, but he gave it to you. Retreat! Retreat!"
"Cannot withdraw!"
Zhao Dora shouted: "It will be chaos as soon as we retreat, the only way is to rush forward."
"Charge!" the reinforcements general scolded: "Yang Xuan only needs to make a roundabout way to chase and kill us. You go and charge, yeah, yeah, let's go. Retreat!"
Yang Xuan's five hundred cavalry were extremely dexterous. They could turn in if they wanted to, and make a detour if they wanted to.
This battle was a mistake from the beginning.
Everything was planned by Yang Gou.
What did he hit?
Human nature is greedy!
In the face of merit, Zhao Dora did not hold back, otherwise he would just stick to it and wait and see what happens.
But he was worried that Yang Xuan had escaped, so he took the initiative to attack.
The attack is simple, but...it can't be taken back.
The reinforcements took the lead in making a detour, preparing to make a U-turn in a large circle.
Zhao Dora gritted her teeth and said: "Withdraw!"
The ambushes on both sides were getting closer and closer.
Just when Dora Zhao's troops successfully turned around, the two wings were in position to attack.
Yang Xuan's pursuit was in place.
Trinity!
With a bang.
Countless men and horses collided with each other, broken limbs and broken arms were flying, and bloody arrows were shot.
The miserable howls of the people and horses were like sudden shouts in a busy city, which made people feel the pain in their eardrums.
Countless Northern Liao people were fleeing.
Under the general trend, no one looks back.
Everyone is running away, and when you turn around, you will be surrounded by a group of people.
There is no way to fight!
Yang Xuan reined in his horse.
Pei Jian was accompanied by more than ten Qiu Long Guards.
"Sven is out, okay!"
Yang Xuan smiled.
Zhen Siwen led the army out. At first, he looked determined and vowed to rescue the deputy envoy.
But it didn't take long for the situation to reverse.
"This... art of war can still be used like this?"
Yanzheng trembled, "First, five hundred cavalry attacked to make the enemy suspicious, and then they spread the suspicion. Just when the enemy felt that the matter was settled, all the ambush troops came out. This is fictitious and real, let alone the enemy, next
The officials were stunned."
Zhen Siwen looked matter-of-fact, "How can we understand the deputy commander of the army?"
He pointed forward, "Attack!"
"withdraw!"
Dora Zhao was shouting.
"Sure!"
An arrow was missing from Xiao Meng's back, "Save me!"
Zhao Dora turned around and found that his horse had also been hit by two arrows, so he gritted his teeth and cursed: "If you hadn't bewitched me, how could I have lost this battle?"
Xiao Meng's horse gradually became exhausted and fell behind.
"Xiang Wen, let's help him out!" said a confidant: "Go back, there is a culprit, and Ning Xing has a place to vent his anger."
This makes sense.
Zhao Dora nodded, turned around, "Go..."
He saw the light of the sword.
Xiao Meng stretched out his hand towards him desperately, "Please be careful..."
The sword flashed and the head was skillfully grabbed.
"Nineteen!"
Wang Laoer happily threw the head behind him.
The fat elder caught it skillfully and put it into the sack.
The second brother's business is open again.
very nice!
The enemy army was defeated.
The momentum of his escape was so extraordinary that Zhen Siwen did not dare to intercept him from the front, but chose to strike from the flank.
The enemy troops were defeated faster.
The journey was like a wolf running like a wolf, killing everyone he saw, and killing everyone himself.
Zhen Siwen reined in his horse and saw more than ten people in the open space where the enemy had originally attacked.
One of them is a woman.
He rode over and said, "Get it!"
The defenders, who looked like wolves and tigers behind them, rushed over.
Yang Jia stepped forward and cupped his hands. "Wait a minute."
Zhen Siwen pondered for a moment, then his men understood, and punched Yang Jia to the ground.
"Hey! It's hot." Zhen Siwen suddenly realized, "Who are you waiting for?"
Zhan Juan said: "We are sent here by friends of Deputy Envoy Yang."
Friend of the deputy envoy?
Does the deputy envoy have any friends in Beiliao?
"Sima." An official smiled obscenely, "The eldest princess of Northern Liao has a special liking for the deputy envoy! It is said that she is lovesick."
Zhen Siwen suddenly understood, walked over and helped Yang Jia up, and said kindly: "I told you earlier! By the way, why did you kneel just now? The ground is dirty. Look, there is blood on the trouser legs...it's not easy to wash."
Yang Jiagan wanted to scold him, but suddenly he saw a cold light in Zhen Siwen's eyes.
"I accidentally fell it."
Yang Xuan, Pei Jian and others came slowly.
"Sven!"
Zhen Siwen turned around and saluted, "I've met the deputy envoy."
Yang Xuan dismounted and patted his shoulder, "You have lived up to my high expectations."
When asked to guard Nangui City, Yang Xuan had many candidates. There were many suitable candidates within the Northern Xinjiang Army.
But after much deliberation, Zhen Siwen is the most suitable.
Zhen Siwen leaned forward and smiled flatteringly, "If it weren't for the deputy envoy, I would be in danger today."
He said these words sincerely... Yang Xuan mobilized a lot of strength for this battle.
"Taoxian County mobilized tens of thousands of war horses in the shortest time. I led five hundred horses ahead, and one man and three horses galloped in.
Then came the main force of eight thousand, and thousands of horses were killed along the way. It is estimated that thousands more horses will have to retreat later."
The losses for this battle were not small.
But great value for money.
Look at those ownerless horses, there must be thousands of them!
There was also a lot of baggage and food left behind by the enemy.
There are also armored weapons.
Groups of prisoners...this is the highlight.
Under the instructions of the boss, Jiedu made a plan for next year, among which road construction was the top priority.
If you want to get rich, build roads first, this is what Boss Yang said.
If you can recruit civilian husbands, it will damage the people's strength.
Prisoners became a lingering word among the officials of the Jiedushi government.
Several old officials who are about to retire and return home have been shouting "harmony is precious" all day long, but when they mention this word, they shout, "Capture prisoners! Capture one and give them money. Capture ten and get promoted!"
In recent years, the smooth roads in Chenzhou are like a myth, and prisoners have played a key role in this.
Everyone sees it and remembers it in their hearts... It can't just be Chenzhou. Aren't other places the deputy envoy's territory?
Therefore, when they saw the prisoners, everyone showed a knowing smile.
This battle!
Earn it!
Zhen Siwen turned around and pointed at the men and women, "Deputy envoy, those few are said to be sent by your friends from Bei Liao."
Only then did Yang Xuan discover Zhan Juan and others.
Zhan Juan, he knows her.
What does Changling mean?
Yang Xuan squinted his eyes.
Zhen Siwen stepped back and pressed the handle of the knife to protect his boss.
Yang Jia and Zhan Juan came over.
"I've met Deputy Ambassador Yang."
The two of them saluted.
Yang Xuan looked at Yang Jia indifferently.
Didn't say anything.
What does this mean?
Yang Jia looked up and found that the group of people behind Yang Xuan seemed to have unkind expressions.
He thought about it.
Since it was a visit sent by friends, it should be a peaceful journey, but instead they followed the army and witnessed the process of attacking Nangui City.
This is a friendly discount.
Many thoughts went through his mind, and Yang Jia thought of Ning Xing's evaluation of Yang Xuan.
Cunning and ruthless.
As cunning as a fox and as fierce as a tiger.
But the friendship between the princess and him is there!
Yang Jia said: "Because we were worried about encountering horse thieves on the road, we asked the army to escort us. Unexpectedly, we were involved here.
I originally wanted to take the people away, but Zhao Dora said that reinforcements from Northern Xinjiang were on the way. The reinforcements are furious at the moment. If they encounter them, they might kill us all."
This reason is impeccable.
But in fact, he stopped here to confirm that Nangui City would return to Daliao before going to negotiate with Yang Xuan.
That's right.
The purpose of his trip was to negotiate.
Yang Xuan looked at him.
Raise your hands.
"Palm mouth!"
Just when Yang Jiagan wanted to hide, Pei Jian flashed and appeared in front of him.
Bang bang bang!
The corners of Yang Jia's mouth were bruised and swollen after being slapped several times, but there was no bleeding.
Pei Jian comes back.
The boss was very satisfied... Yang Xuan nodded, "The workmanship is good."
Yang Jia covered his face, but did not get angry. He asked calmly, "Does the deputy intend to humiliate the princess?"
There are many stories spread between Yang Xuan and Changling in Northern Liao Dynasty, the most common one is that the two were in love, and Changling got rid of the previous consort for this reason.
Yang Xuan said contemptuously: "I don't care about your purpose of coming, whether you come to declare war or yell at me, I don't care.
But I can't tolerate someone teasing me in front of my face, and by the way, pretending to be nonchalant.
You, look for a slap!"
Zhan Juan glanced at Yang Jia.
Since being rescued by Chang Ling, Yang Jia has spared no effort in advising Chang Ling.
His strategy is indeed outstanding.
But there is a problem, which is also a common problem among talented people, which is arrogance and arrogance.
As time went by, the former slave began to become proud and more reserved.
I probably feel that there is no problem that I can’t solve.
But today I hit a wall with Yang Xuan.
Zhan Juan said softly: "This strategist can trick the deputy envoy of Northern Xinjiang. Don't show off your cleverness in front of him. It's embarrassing!"
Yang Jia's expression remained unchanged and he saluted.
"The princess asked me to come here because she wanted to ask Deputy Envoy Yang, is there possible peace between Daliao and Northern Xinjiang?"
Is this asking for peace?
Zhen Siwen thought it was good news.
Northern Xinjiang is facing pressure from Chang'an. If the war with Northern Liao can be terminated, it will be easier for them to cultivate their health and recuperate.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
This is true for many people.
Yang Xuan took a deep breath.
“If Beiliao wants to fight, fight, if you want to withdraw, withdraw, and if you want peace, then make peace?
