Governor Helian led his troops to cruise around the flanks of the Northern Xinjiang Army.
From time to time, he would send large groups of cavalry to raid.
"The Tang army on the opposite side is leaking water!"
A group of cavalrymen who went for a surprise attack came back, and the general who led the group looked a little frustrated.
"Who is leading the charge?"
"Pei Jian!"
"Pei Jiu's son!" Governor Helian thought of the name that originally made Bei Liao fearful.
The Tang Dynasty loved to kill each other, and there were many internal killings, but it gave the Liao Dynasty a chance.
But there was an endless stream of talented people in the Tang Dynasty. One Pei Jiu came, and another Yang Xuan came.
Moreover, unlike Pei Jiu who was willing to go to Chang'an to die, Yang Xuan would not hesitate to slap him back when faced with the pressure from Chang'an.
Then, Daliao began to kill each other, killing all the country and the country without caring.
Time seems to have been turned upside down, replacing the Tang Dynasty with the Liao Dynasty.
Yang Xuan must be defeated!
Governor Helian knew the critical situation facing Daliao at this moment. The Far North cannot be defeated, otherwise those tribes will be ready to divide Daliao. Even if they defeat the Shegu people later, those tribes will smell the weakness of Daliao.
Then, Daliao will face one after another rebellion.
Daliao now needs a good news to cheer people up!
Battle of Cangzhou!!!
Governor Helian said: "Is Yang Xuan still attacking Puxiang City?"
"Yes, it's not messy at all!"
"Sure enough, he is a famous general who is not surprised when a mountain collapses in front of him!" Governor Helian couldn't help but praise, "I have been waiting for him to hesitate, give up attacking Puxiang City, or withdraw his troops. What a pity!"
He said it was a pity, but his eyes flickered, "It would actually be best if he doesn't withdraw!"
If everything goes well, Lin Nan will launch a raid on the military food road in Northern Xinjiang in the next few days.
With the food route cut off, the 80,000-strong army was not far from collapse.
"General, there is someone coming from Vice General Lin."
"oh!"
Lin Nan's envoy arrived and looked very excited, "General, Vice General Lin led his troops to show off their strength in Taoxian County, and then left hundreds of cavalry scattered around to confuse the enemy. The main force has already gone to the military food road in northern Xinjiang.
.”
"Okay!" Governor Helian narrowed his eyes, "Taoxian was worried that Lin Jun would go out in force, so he hesitated. With such hesitation, Lin Nan could calmly evacuate, and then make a surprise attack to the left under Neizhou's nose."
Even if Neizhou guessed Lin Nan's intention, it was too late.
"Report from Neizhou that Lin Nan's troops have gone to the left."
In Taoxian County, Song Zhen looked at the map and suddenly turned around with a stern look on his face, "We are going to raid the grain road!"
Everyone knows the consequences if the army runs out of food.
"Hurry up and report. It's too late." Liu Qing covered his forehead, "Five thousand men and twenty thousand, if we encounter a surprise attack, I don't dare to think about it.
"Send troops to respond!" Luo Cai suddenly stood up. He knew that Yang Xuan was in danger.
But others were silent.
Liu Qing looked gloomy, Song Zhen frowned and looked at the map, Nan He looked calm and said: "No!"
"Why?" If he hadn't known that Nan He was Yang Xuan's confidant, Luo Cai would have really wanted to go up and slap him.
The old man's eyes showed a fierce look, "If you don't have food, you will panic. Where can you get the fighting spirit from panic? Governor Helian is watching from the side, and Lin Jun is sitting on the wall watching the battle. Once he finds that the army is in danger of collapse, he will not hesitate."
Luo Cai was startled.
Nan He looked at him, "He will give me a blow in Northern Xinjiang without hesitation. He will not attack the Duke from a flank, but take advantage of the situation to attack my Northern Xinjiang."
Liu Qing sighed, "So, we want to defend the northern border for the Duke. Even if we are defeated, the foundation is still there. After a few years, we can still rise again."
"Hey!" Luo Cai felt depressed and left the check-in room.
"Master Ning."
Ning Yayun, who didn't go with us this time, is here.
"Gong Luo, is Mr. Liu here?"
Ning Yayun flutters her tail, free and easy.
Luo Cai nodded.
Ning Yayun went in and noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere.
"Headmaster Ning is here
What's the matter?" Liu Qing asked with a smile.
"The Duke has entrusted me with the responsibility of supervising the sacrifices in northern Xinjiang. I have never been slack in my metaphysics. Yesterday, a disciple came back to report that a sacrifice was found in Chenzhou."
"Oh!" Liu Qing nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, the Duke is not here, I have the final say, so just destroy it!"
Ning Yayun just came to make an announcement and asked before leaving: "But is there something big?"
Liu Qing said: "Headmaster Ning is not an outsider. The current situation has changed somewhat."
He didn't say anything about the change, but looking at everyone's expressions, Ning Yayun knew it.
"The war situation is not going well?"
Liu Qing nodded.
Ning Yayun smiled slightly, showing her composure.
After walking out of the check-in room, Luo Cai couldn't help but ask: "Isn't Headmaster Ning worried? It should be noted that if Northern Xinjiang declines, metaphysics will have no place to stand."
"Although I don't understand the art of war or the situation of a battle, I do understand the situation."
"What do you mean?" Luo Cai asked.
"The power lies in Zitai!"
Wang Laoer was galloping with five thousand horses.
He is impatient!
According to Yi Niang's instructions, he must make some meritorious deeds this time so as to give some color to the woman's family.
Wang Laoer didn't understand why this was the case. Yi Niang said angrily: "When you get married, either the east wind will overwhelm the west wind, or the west wind will overwhelm the east wind. If you want to live a good life, you have to overwhelm your wife before getting married! Do you understand?"
He went to ask the old thief.
"Overwhelmed?" The old thief looked ambiguous, "Yes! If they are not overwhelmed, they are not a couple!"
It turns out that it is really overwhelming!
So after setting off for the expedition, Wang Laoer was obsessed with making meritorious deeds.
He first swept through Cangzhou and allowed the enemy's 4,000 cavalry to face Pei Jian's forward.
He originally wanted to lead people to attack the city, but Yang Xuan kept ordering the death camp to attack. Even if he winked and hinted around, it would be of no avail.
Now let him go back to investigate.
What about merit?
Wang Laoer looked at Nanfang very sadly, "Since I can't overwhelm her, then let her overwhelm me!"
In the afternoon, it was time to camp.
"Why didn't you see the scout?"
Wang Laoer asked.
Logically, there should be scouts from the Northern Xinjiang Army roaming here.
"Second brother, he probably went somewhere else!"
Captain Li Qian said.
Scouts have great flexibility. For example, if they find a suspicious point, they can leave the mission area and rush to investigate.
Wang Laoer dismounted.
It's dusk now and it's time to camp.
Li Qian told his men to set up camp. In a blink of an eye, he saw Wang Laoer standing in front, looking in the direction of Taoxian County in a daze. He came over and asked, "Second brother, are you thinking about your future wife?"
Wang Laoer is getting married, and many people know about it.
"Tell me, what is it like to get married?"
Li Qian really didn't think about this question seriously. He was silent for a long time, "It probably means that life is boring and you have to find a companion."
"But my life is very interesting!" Wang Laoer said.
"There has to be a balance between yin and yang." Li Qian said with a smile: "Isn't it good to have a sweet-smelling woman in my arms when I can't sleep alone at night?"
"Smells good?" Wang Laoer thought of the beauties he saw outside the brothel, and the smell on their bodies was disgusting.
He subconsciously unlocked the secret skill passed down from his family, Thousand Miles A Thousand Miles.
"vomit!"
Wang Laoer retched and his eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Second Brother, are you hungry?" Many people in the army have bad gastrointestinal problems and will retching when they are hungry.
Wang Laoer shook his head, "I smell blood."
He got on his horse and headed to the left.
"Second brother!" Li Qian turned around and said, "Follow me!"
Li Qian followed closely with hundreds of horses.
"Second brother, what's going on?" asked the thin elder.
The fat elder looked ambiguous, "You know the man who wants to get married."
"I know nothing!" the thin elder said angrily: "Second brother has never tasted the taste of a woman. Last time he said that women stink."
"Women stink?"
The thin elder looked stunned.
Wang Laoer suddenly reined in his horse, dismounted and walked slowly over.
Spring has returned to the earth, and everything in the north has revived. In the wilderness, green grass has sprouted, looking particularly green.
But just ahead, there was a messy place.
The ground is slightly raised and looks very fresh.
Wang Laoer took a breath and said, "Dig!"
The accompanying sergeant went back and got some tools, and after just digging a few times, he found something.
"It's a corpse!"
Dozens of sergeants dug away the covering soil and carried out a corpse with several arrows stuck in it.
"He's our brother!"
A sergeant said sadly and angrily.
Wang Laoer walked over, pulled out the arrow, and sniffed it.
"There are also corpses of Beiliao people!"
Several corpses of Beiliao people were dragged out. Wang Laoer walked over and sniffed them.
Look southward!
"Ready to go!"
At this moment, Lin Nan was leading his army less than eight miles away from the northern Xinjiang baggage convoy.
The sunset was magnificent, but he had no intention of admiring it. He looked at it casually with his hands behind his hands, while various thoughts swirled in his mind.
"Vice General Lin, when will we attack?"
A general came to ask for instructions.
Lin Nan shook his head, "Don't worry. The motorcade has stopped at this moment. The people and horses seem tired, but they are the most alert. After eating and talking for a while, it's time to rest. Once a tired person falls asleep, ghosts will scream.
Don’t wake up. Ugly time!”
"yes!"
In this way, everyone can get some sleep first.
Lin Nan squinted his eyes, "Tell the soldiers that this battle is of great importance."
"of!"
"The troops in the Northern Xinjiang army did not notice our arrival. The people in Neizhou probably felt that something was wrong at this moment, but they did not have time to report the news. This is the best opportunity to burn the food and grass with a fire, and then disperse, in
The Northern Xinjiang Army is cruising behind them. When the general launches a general attack, our army will strike Yang Xuan from behind. The Northern Xinjiang Army, which is out of food, will collapse without a fight."
Lin Nan thought about the current situation, "Everyone talks about how unbearable the general is, but they can't see how cunning he is. In the current situation, only a counterattack can boost the morale of the people in the declining Liao. Otherwise,
Daliao is in danger!"
The general smiled and said: "The general has made many arrangements. If he had not known it in advance, I am afraid that the subordinates would have been confused. As for Yang Xuan, most of them are still hesitant at this moment."
"Yang Xuan is cunning. The general planned this all winter. He pondered all his ideas." Lin Nan saw with his own eyes that Governor Helian had aged much in one winter, and the bags under his eyes were also caused by countless sleepless nights.
Stayed up in the middle of the night.
Being a general is not easy!
As the sun sets, only a trace of scarlet remains in the sky.
As night fell, Lin Nan still stood there, motionless for a long time.
At the beginning of the Chou period, the army woke up.
"Everyone be silent!"
The general was drinking in a low voice.
The soldiers woke up sleepily, rubbed their eyes and cold cheeks, and then got up to move their hands and feet.
Lin Nan is also a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time, but he still can't hide his excitement and has no appetite.
He forced himself to eat a piece of bread and drink some water.
At this moment, the sky is dark, a few stars hang in the sky, and the stars are dim.
This is the most suitable weather for a sneak attack.
"Set off!"
At this moment, there were three hundred sergeants on duty guarding the convoy.
The two sergeants walked back and forth together.
"I don't know how the fight on the Duke's side is going."
"It is said that this battle will be unprecedentedly difficult. If Governor Helian's army of 90,000 is strong, it will be difficult for us to break through the city in one go."
"When we attack Bei Liao, it seems to be getting harder and harder the more we fight."
"Yes! When we first attacked Neizhou, we fought so easily and freely. Brothers all said that Bei Liao was nothing more than that. It was a bit more difficult to attack Kunzhou, and Longhua Prefecture was even more difficult. It can be seen that the further you go into the hinterland of Bei Liao,
The harder it gets.”
"If we can capture Yanzhou and Cangzhou this time, we might be able to go to Ningxing."
"That's right! When the Tang Dynasty was founded, the Northern Liao cavalry went to Chang'an to show off their military prowess. The wind and water changed, and so did the
It’s time for us to feel proud.”
"All this is thanks to the Duke!"
"Yes. So those people are muttering that the prince is rebellious, and I am rebelling against his mother! Without the prince, what would be the situation in Northern Xinjiang now? We are sergeants, we don't understand any big principles, but we know who is doing things and who is talking.
Big talk."
"Chang'an is just a mouth."
"There are emperors here! I think everyone in the world should listen to them."
"Tear a few eggs! This is Northern Xinjiang!"
"Hush!" A sergeant raised his hand.
"What?"
"Listen!"
The two sergeants looked ahead.
Ahead, there seemed to be countless monsters and ghosts lurking in the night.
A sound like countless insects crawling on dead leaves kept coming.
Gradually, the voice became deeper and slightly vibrating.
"Torch!"
shouted a sergeant.
The torch was lit, the sergeant took it and threw it forward.
The torch was spinning in circles in the air, and the firelight also changed, illuminating dozens of people who were bending over, biting branches in their mouths, and holding long knives in their hands.
Shocked!
Both sides were stunned for a moment.
"Enemy attack!"
Sharp shouts shook the convoy.
Behind, Lin Ya mounted her horse.
Choking!
He pulled out his long sword, looked back at his subordinates who couldn't see him at a glance, and roared: "It's now to make great achievements. My sons, kill the enemy!"
"Must win!"
Amid cheers, the enemy troops mobilized in full force!
The convoy is boiling.
"Formation! Formation!"
"Put the big car in."
When the convoy was camping, the carts were parked outside and formed a car formation.
Captain Wang He jumped on the cart and looked into the distance.
The sound of horse hoofbeats gradually became clearer. Colonel Feng Xuan stood on the carriage on the side and looked at him slowly, "Old Wang!"
"How much?" Wang He's lips trembled.
"It's too dense. Let's say at least 20,000!"
Wang He looked back at the civilians in the car formation and shouted: "Everyone pick up your weapons."
The civilians picked up their weapons in confusion.
Wang He shouted: "You should know what will happen if the army runs out of food. For the sake of Northern Xinjiang and for the sake of the country, let's fight to the death today!"
The folk customs in northern Xinjiang are fierce and fierce. When they heard this, the people exploded.
