With high morale, even a weak force can turn defeat into victory.
Yang Xuan led the army to fight for many years. Starting from Taiping County, he led a group of death camp and horse thieves to fight with the three major tribes.
Most of his tactics come from scrolls.
In the scroll, the relevant information on the art of war is as vast as the sea. If it were thrown out, Yang Xuan felt that it would make the world go crazy.
The scroll not only contains the art of war, but also countless combat examples, as well as pictures, videos, and expert analysis and teaching...
But no matter how much you learn, it’s still not as good as getting started and fighting.
In the first battle, he was surrounded and killed by horse thieves and almost died.
Yang Xuan later heard Jiang Cunzhong talk about some things in the army, and there was one sentence in it that deeply touched his heart.
——Countless heroes died in their first battle!
Those so-called famous generals were just lucky enough to save their lives in their first battle.
He deeply believed it.
I also understand the reason why the nobles’ sons are always surrounded by good soldiers to protect them in their first battle in the army.
He died before he left the army, which made the hero burst into tears!
Nowadays, no one dares to question him if he calls him a famous general or a veteran.
Xiao Daqiu's approach to facing this famous general was very simple, just one word: Steady!
In fact, it’s Gou!
The city has stocked up with elite soldiers and generals, as well as a lot of food and grass, and the city head has been reinforced as if it were being rebuilt.
Come on, Yang Gou, try it with your trebuchet.
It was precisely because of this confidence that Xiao Daqiu dared to pose as if to invite you to the urn.
——Yang Gou, if you don’t come, you will be my grandson!
All he had to do was call her affectionately from the top of the city.
But he didn't know that compared to winning by strategy, Boss Yang preferred to crush with strength.
today!
Boss Yang was prepared to crush him like this.
On top of the city, the remaining prisoners of war soldiers refused to retreat.
Below, the Northern Xinjiang Army is coming.
"There is no need to use any fancy means, just like a hammer, hit me hard!"
Yang Xuan said contemptuously: "Who can stop me?"
If time went back to a year ago, he would rack his brains to think of ways to break the city.
Now, no need to.
At first, he even had to lead a team to attack the city and risk his own life to open a breakthrough for the entire army.
Now, no need to.
The Qiu Long Guards, wearing the armor of ordinary soldiers, were ascending the city.
Behind him, a good player is waiting for his order to attack.
Metaphysics has held a debate conference these days, which is also a debate conference. As the head teacher, Ning Yayun had to stay and preside over it, so she did not come this time.
Lao Ning was very loyal and said that he had divined good luck for Yang Xuan's battle.
Without Ning Yayun, he still holds a group of good hands.
"Zhou Jian!"
Seeing a group of enemy troops at the top of the city who were very active and skilled, Yang Xuan pointed at the group of people and said, "Kill them!"
"Take your orders!"
Zhou Jian rode his horse and rushed to the city without using a shield. He pulled up the ladder with one hand and the people flew up.
The light of the sword was like the moonlight, sweeping across the city.
"Slaughtering the Duke!"
"exist!"
Yang Xuan pointed to the top of the city, "I want the enemy general!"
"Take your orders!"
Boss Yang needs to understand the enemy's situation.
As soon as the cavalry arrived at the central army, "Deputy envoy, Zhen Sima, please order us to attack!"
"Sven!"
Yang Xuan smiled and said: "There are too many monks and too little rice! However, he has done meritorious service in defending the city, so I will accept it!"
The cavalry was overjoyed, and Han Ji praised: "He is happy when he hears about the battle. Lang Jun has trained the Northern Xinjiang Army into a ferocious tiger!"
The city is about to be breached, and Zhen Siwen's role as a partial commander is gone...
"If Xiao Hongde sends troops..." A general suggested in a low voice.
"Yesterday, Xiao Hongde's arrangement was broken by his second brother. He is probably feeling uneasy right now. He doesn't dare!"
Yang Xuandan said calmly.
"Zhen...Zhen Siwen is in love with Mr. Lang!"
Yang Xuan was stunned. When he looked carefully, he saw Zhen Siwen leading a group of sergeants climbing the ladder.
grass!
Yang Xuan had a headache. When he saw Zhen Siwen rushing to the top of the city to kill him, he couldn't help but praise: "Sven is full of courage!"
"Someone wants credit!"
Zhen Siwen rushed to the top of the city with red eyes and came face to face with a group of enemy troops.
His legs went weak for a moment, just for a moment!
"Sven, you can do it!"
"Sven, you are invincible!"
Zhen Siwen completed the psychological construction and shouted: "Kill!"
He just rushed over without any care.
Keep killing through the enemy formation.
"The city is broken!"
The Northern Xinjiang Army captured a section of the city and completely controlled it. They were extending the attack downwards, and then opened the city gate to welcome the large group into the city.
Yang Xuan took a look and said, "It's a small test, not bad."
He dismounted, and his first loyal servant Wu Da thoughtfully offered him a small bench, "Master, sit down."
Yang Xuan waved his hand, "I won't sit down today, let's take a walk!"
At this time, cheers came from the top of the city.
"Wan Sheng!"
"My sons have captured the enemy general." Yang Xuan said with a smile: "This battle is developing very quickly."
The city gate is open.
Yang Xuan said: "Go into the city and clean it up!"
In this battle, the killing was refreshing!
The cavalry rushed in, and there was no suspense in this battle.
Yang Xuan slowly walked to the bottom of the city.
The Horned Dragon Guards beside him looked at the mountains of corpses and the city head with vigilance.
It is not uncommon for generals to be assassinated after war.
"Langjun, Suoyun!" Wang Laoer pointed to the right front.
Yang Xuan saw it.
Suo Yun knelt in front of a pile of corpses, wiping tears.
Today, the prisoner camp displayed the most impressive display of majesty in history.
"Owner!"
When Suo Yun heard the noise, he turned around and knelt down, "The villain just... couldn't help it. Master, please atone for your sins."
"Assemble!"
Following Yang Xuan's order, the remaining soldiers of the prisoner camp gathered.
Yang Xuan stood in front of the array.
"To be honest, I have always been very strict with prisoners, and everyone knows this."
The famous inventor of Jingguan, the origin of the vertical pole frightened the enemy.
"But today, you impressed me with your fearlessness."
Yang Xuan was really moved, and it was time to give the prisoner camp a try.
"Each person in the prison camp who went out to fight this time will be rewarded with a hundred coins!"
This is a big deal.
The prisoners were overjoyed, "Thank you, deputy!"
"Record the names of the soldiers from the prison camp who died in this battle and send them to..." Yang Xuan looked at these people.
Suo Yun's heart was beating like thunder, but when he thought about it, he thought it was impossible.
"Send it to the Martyrs' Shrine for worship!"
In this era, people believed deeply in souls, and souls that had no one to worship them were lonely ghosts and gradually disappeared.
And the soul that is enshrined by someone feels like it is at home, and has no worries about food and drink.
The Martyrs' Shrine is a place where the loyal souls of Northern Xinjiang can enjoy the luck of Northern Xinjiang.
Who can enter?
Those soldiers who died fighting for Northern Xinjiang!
They are prisoners and have never had any extravagant expectations... Even if they risk their lives for Northern Xinjiang, they always dream of becoming Northern Xinjiang people.
but.
They really never expected it!
But now the boss spoke.
After death in battle, the soul is no longer helpless!
Plop!
One by one, the soldiers in the prisoner of war camp knelt down.
Tears filled my eyes.
The same goes for Soyun.
"Death for the master!"
he roared.
"Death for the master!"
At this moment, the entire prison camp was crawling towards Yang Xuan.
It’s like worshiping your own gods!
Extremely pious!
Han Ji watched this scene from a distance and said softly: "It would be great if this scene happened in Chang'an."
There was still resistance in the city. The enemy troops were hiding in the houses. The Northern Xinjiang Army was surprised as soon as they entered.
The casualties were considerable.
After receiving the news, Yang Xuan insisted on entering the city despite the obstruction of his subordinates.
When the soldiers saw the boss entering the city, they couldn't help but cheered.
"Wan Sheng!"
"Yang Gou is here!"
In one house, the male owner trembled, "He's coming."
The two defenders said fiercely: "Stop shouting!"
The man's family huddled together.
At this time, someone outside shouted: "Those who come out on their own initiative, let bygones be bygones. Those who follow and resist stubbornly, kill! Those who kill the defenders hiding in their homes, reward! After a hundred breaths, no one will be left alive!"
After a hundred breaths, the city will be raided!
Suoyun came to the prison camp with murderous intent.
The boss promised that those who died in the battle would be admitted to the Martyrs' Shrine, which made these prisoners eager to fight.
The city actually became quiet.
"Langjun, drink tea!"
Jiang Heer completed his task brilliantly, even at this time, he still prepared a cup of hot tea for his boss.
Yang Xuan took a sip of tea, and the familiar taste made him relax.
Moisten your throat and open your mouth:
"Start counting!"
Beside me, someone started counting.
"...eight, nine, ten..."
No movement.
"Don't let me down!"
Yang Xuan held the tea cup and said coldly.
The cost of clearing houses one by one is not small. He can afford it, but he is unwilling to pay it.
But Jianshui City must be in the hands of Northern Xinjiang, so if it really faces such a situation, he will set an example for other Northern Liao cities.
The kerosene began to gather.
The stone houses built in Nangui City were very costly and did not stop the Northern Xinjiang army. Therefore, the construction of Shuishui City was unnecessary.
"...fifty, fifty-one..."
The sergeant singing the numbers had a loud voice.
Boom!
A door was knocked open, and then several Beiliao people ran out, with roars coming from behind.
"They're right inside!" shouted the woman who ran out.
"Kill him!" The sound of fighting came from the other side.
Then, various sounds sounded in the city.
"Why are these people willing to come out?"
someone asked.
The old thief said: "Lang Jun's reputation can stop children from crying at night in the North. However, Lang Jun's reputation for trust and promise is equally resounding. If he says he will build roads, he will not kill anyone.
These people don't want to die for the Northern Liao Dynasty. There are two ways at this moment, one is to die with the defenders, and the other is to rush out."
Jianshui City is boiling.
When he saw the defenders discarding their weapons and coming out to ask for surrender, Yang Xuan said: "That's it."
He was not prepared to give guidance on the rest of the matter, but someone sent a message.
"The two guards were trapped in one place and asked the deputy envoy to see them."
"have a look!"
Yang Xuan set out, with hundreds of sergeants holding shields on both sides, and surrounded by a human wall composed of horned dragon guards. It would be really weird to be successfully assassinated.
"Yang Gou!"
Before he had taken two steps, the door of the room on the left was pushed open, and a sergeant rushed out, but was killed by Uda with an arrow.
But this was just a cover. Inside the room, a sergeant stretched out his bow and arrow, and his sharp eyes were fixed on Yang Xuan.
stop!
At the same time, an iron rod hit him.
The missing arrow didn't even reach the Horned Dragon Guard's defensive circle, and was intercepted by the shield on the outside.
While the sergeant was feeling regretful, an iron rod roared over and smashed his head.
A sergeant went in, picked up the iron rod and threw it back.
Qiu Longwei took the iron rod and shook it casually.
The guard was trapped in the house, the outer wall had been smashed, and more than ten people gathered together.
Yang Xuan looked at Xiao Daqiu, "I hear you want to see me? I'm here, tell me!"
Mo Yu looked at Xiao Daqiu, "Kill him!"
Xiao Daqiu said: "You attract those people's attention, I will attack them secretly."
“Good idea!”
Mo Yu was overjoyed, holding a knife and shouting: "Yang Gou shall die!"
As soon as he took a step forward, he noticed that Yang Xuan's expression was a little strange, like pity and ridicule.
Mo Yu fell down with pain in his lower back.
He struggled to turn over, looked at Xiao Daqiu, who was still bleeding from the long knife in his hand, and asked with difficulty: "Why?"
Xiao Daqiu said: "When the city was broken, I wanted to ask for surrender, but you old dog dragged me into hiding in the city, so that I was useless. You deserve to die!"
"you……"
Mo Yu smiled bitterly, "You keep saying that you will be loyal to Daliao..."
"If you want to be an official, everyone must shout "loyalty to the Liao". The louder and more passionate you shout, the faster you will be promoted. So, who doesn't shout? You actually take it seriously?"
Xiao Daqiu smiled flatteringly at Yang Xuan.
This man is shameless!
But shameless people are easy to take advantage of.
Mo Yu looked at the roof blankly, "It's all fake...is it fake? But you swore an oath."
"Swear? When Lin Ya was a ninth-rank official, she swore to fight for the Liao for the rest of her life. If she violated this oath, she would be pierced by thousands of arrows and die. As a result, she gained the emperor's favor.
But look, he has become a traitor now and wants to overthrow Daliao, but God turns a blind eye."
Xiao Daqiu did not hesitate to finish the attack, watched Mo Yu close his eyes, knelt down and said: "I am willing to serve the deputy commander."
Yang Xuan was a little curious, "You are said to be as stable as a mountain, but I thought you would die..."
Such a steady person should not surrender!
Xiao Daqiu raised his head and said, "The villain is steady...not my intention."
"Why is that?" Yang Xuan became interested and glanced at Wang Laoer.
If there is any way to make the second child more stable, I think Yi Niang would be happy.
Xiao Daqiu was able to infiltrate the guard of Jianshui City. Thinking about it, it was a very good method.
Xiao Daqiu lowered his head.
"The villain is... afraid of death!"
Yang Xuan: "..."
After opening up the conversation, Xiao Daqiu put aside his shame, "When I first joined the army, I was brave and not afraid of death, and I was promoted because of it.
Later, when the villain became a general, he had more money and food, and more women in his family. He couldn't bear to part with those enjoyments, and he couldn't bear to die.
When we go to clear out the rebels, the villains will camp step by step; when they guard the city, the villains...are beaten to death without attacking."
"What about other people's doubts?" Han Ji asked.
Xiao Daqiu said: "As a villain, you can build a solid reputation..."
That is, personality.
What a...talent!
Yang Xuan said: "Come to Chengyang with me."
In Chengyang, Xiao Hongde had already learned the news that Ma Sheng's army was almost wiped out.
"That Wang Laoer was actually waiting halfway up the road. It can be seen that Ma Sheng and the others were under his nose all the way. He ordered the rangers to attack and clean up the Northern Xinjiang Army's spies around them."
The rangers attack.
Not long after, he returned in embarrassment.
"Yang Gou is here."
"alert!"
The city was very busy.
Xiao Hongde stared straight ahead, "He's here. Where is Jianshui City? Where is Xiao Daqiu?"
Zhao Dora said: "Xiao Daqiu is steady. Come to think of it, Yang Gou can't easily break the city!"
"Then what is he here for?" Xiao Hongde's breath tightened, "Yang Gou dares to come, there is only one possibility, Jianshui City is lost!"
"They're coming."
A huge crowd of people came.
Xiao Hongde saw Yang Ziqi.
"It's Yang Gou!"
Under the banner, Yang Xuan rode his horse and came slowly.
Until the city.
He came here to suppress the enemy's morale and lay the foundation for the next attack.
Looking at the defenders at the top of the city, Yang Xuan said: "Today we build Shuicheng, and tomorrow we build Chengyang."
Zhao Dora scolded: "What a shame!"
Yang Xuan waved.
"Bring it here!"
What is it?
The defenders at the top of the city watched carefully.
A man still wearing the armor of a Northern Liao general was brought.
Until he arrived in front of Yang Xuanma.
Someone exclaimed, "It's Xiao Daqiu!"
It’s over!
Jianshui City is over!
Xiao Daqiu was captured!
Xiao Daqiu, who vowed to live and die with Jianshui City, was actually captured.
The defenders at the top of the city were greatly shocked.
Could it be that he was captured after fighting hard?
