He Liantong chose to fall from the city and die for his country, which was unexpected by Yang Xuan. [Read the novel with the correct chapters,]
He looked at the corpses under the city, nodded slightly, "Let's go."
This is his last respect for the old coach.
"Actually, Beiliao didn't treat him well," He Lianrong said.
"He had a promising future, but was jealous of the emperor. He wanted to persist, but his family was afraid, and they tried to persuade him and even cursed him. He had no choice but to return to Ningxing."
He Lianyan sighed: "I say I am enjoying fishing at home, but even if I am fishing, who would want to be at home? There are many lakes in Ningxing, and there are many fish!"
"Ahem!"
Jiang Cunzhong coughed dryly, interrupting everyone's sighs, "My lord, the wooden ladder is ready."
Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Surrender!"
The array came forward in order.
The cavalrymen slapped their shields with the backs of their swords.
"Will you surrender or not?"
"Will you surrender or not?"
"Will you surrender or not?"
At the top of the city, Chen De smiled and said: "Chen De, I won't surrender!"
The general beside him raised his sword: "Mao Hu will not surrender!"
"Wangshan will not surrender!"
"..."
The sound is spreading.
The faces of the defenders were filled with solemnity.
"Then, I'll grant you what you've been waiting for!"
Yang Xuan raised his hand, "Attack the city!"
…
Fifty thousand troops are marching.
Xiao Hua and Chen Fangli were discussing in the Chinese Army.
"I think that these 50,000 troops should not directly join the battle, but should lurk on the side, waiting for an opportunity to take action." Xiao Hua said.
"The Privy Envoy means to inform King Lian Jiang that the army is on the side?" Chen Fangli asked.
"Yes." Xiao Hua said enthusiastically: "With the army on the side, King Lian Jiang was much more calm. He could even lead his army to pretend to be defeated and retreat. When Yang Xuan led the army to pursue, my 50,000-strong army attacked from the flank, and Lian Jiang
If the king leads his army to counterattack again, even if the king of heaven comes, he will still be defeated!"
Chen Fangli nodded, "What a great idea!"
"After defeating the Northern Xinjiang army, we must not stop." Xiao Hua said, "We must pursue it all the way to Taoxian County. Once we reach Taoxian County, attack the city immediately. As long as Taoxian County is captured, half of Northern Xinjiang will be lost."
"Chang'an will definitely be jealous." Chen Fangli said with a smile.
"Jealous? But Li Mi is beyond reach!" Xiao Hua said: "After seizing the northern border, the situation is in the hands of Daliao. Then they use the force to suppress the Shegu tribe. After stabilizing the internal situation, they immediately go south... and attack Guanzhong!"
"If this can be done, I will have no regrets in this life." Chen Fangli's eyes were full of longing.
"Privy Envoy!"
There were people waiting in front, accompanied by several Northern Liao cavalry, who looked extremely embarrassed.
"This is..." Xiao Hua asked: "Scout?"
A defeated soldier looked at Xiao Hua, knelt down and said: "We are defeated!"
"What?" Xiao Hua's body shook.
The messenger has arrived.
He watched the army slowly pass by and said dullly: "You guys are late."
…
Boom!
Amidst the thunder, the death camp swarmed up.
At the top of the city, the defenders counterattacked wildly.
"This is Beiliao's last courage!"
Yang Xuan said, "Let them vent it out."
When the courage is vented, all that is left is despair.
"ah!"
A sergeant knelt on the ground and howled, "Da Liao is gone! It's gone!"
This howl was like a signal, and more and more defenders lowered their weapons.
They were desperate, and then watched numbly as more and more Northern Xinjiang troops surged up to the city.
The city gate opens.
Yang Xuan did not go in, but ordered: "The follow-up progress will be very fast, first keep an eye on the granary."
"yes!"
Jiang Cunzhong led people into the city.
"Master, sit down!"
The loyal servant Uda presented Mazar.
Yang Xuan sat down and said, "I'm hungry."
Jiang He'er said: "There is some dry food."
"I want hot food."
Yang Xuan said in a leisurely manner.
"My lord, won't you go to Ningxing immediately?" Jiang He'er asked.
"Going to Ningxing at this time is like catching a turtle in a urn, but don't forget that there are still many troops in the city. And Ningxing is a powerful city. If we attack by force, how many people will die?"
Yang Xuan said: "The Shegu people probably want us to do this. In addition, the same is true for Chang'an."
"But what if the little emperor runs away?" Jiang He'er asked.
"Once Jiangzhou is lost, Bei Liao will no longer have any chance of life." Yang Xuan pointed to the north and said: "A little emperor ran away and ran away. With him here, the ambitions of Bei Liao were restrained."
Han Ji smiled and said: "Whoever wants to be independent is rebellious."
"But where is the money and food?" Jiang He'er said bitterly and resentfully: "The wealth that Beiliao has accumulated for hundreds of years is all in Ningxing! What if it is swept away?"
"They don't dare to take them away!" He Lianrong came back, "Who dares to take a huge amount of money with them when they are running for their lives? It will only slow down the journey."
Yang Xuan asked: "How was this battle?"
He Lianrong said: "In this battle, more than 37,400 enemies were killed and more than 81,800 were captured. Countless swords and guns were seized, and there were even more war horses. This made the officials in charge of the army's baggage worried and said that they should hurry up.
Let the shepherds graze the cattle.”
"A lot!" Yang Xuan said: "In this battle, the Jiangzhou Army was completely wiped out."
Someone brought a bowl of buns, and Yang Xuan ate it slowly.
Screams could be heard from time to time in the city.
Jiang Cunzhong came out of the city to report.
"My lord, all the granaries in the city are under control. Those with plenty of food and grass... I'm still counting them."
Yang Xuan asked: "Is it enough for the army?"
"That's enough." Jiang Cunzhong turned around and waved, and a Northern Liao civil servant was brought over.
After saluting, the civil servant said: "Your Majesty... Bah! It was the old dog Heliantong who said that we must hold on, so Ning Xing sent a lot of food and grass. Even if we are besieged, we can hold on for half a year."
It can supply the people in the city and an army of 150,000 people with food and grass for half a year. The quantity is so large that Yang Xuan is secretly happy about it.
It is not easy to send an army of 100,000 people to the expedition. Just talking about food and grass makes Liu Qing and others very anxious. Every day, baggage goes north from northern Xinjiang to eat for the people and animals accompanying it, and for the accompanying troops to eat... The cost of this journey is very high.
trembling.
Therefore, the battle to overthrow the country cannot be done easily. Once defeated, not only will the army be lost, but those expenses will not be compensated by the capture, and the following days will be extremely difficult.
Yang Xuan thought of the Sui Dynasty in that world.
Three expeditions to Goguryeo, no matter what Yang Guang's considerations were, the fact that he dared to attack Goguryeo one after another on such a scale shows that this man is crazy.
"There is still a lot of money in the city. It was originally used for military pay, but now it is all ours." Jiang Cunzhong said with a smile.
"It just so happens that a lot of money is needed to reward merit after the war, so stay!" Yang Xuan felt that Beiliao had become his caring person. If supplies were difficult, he would send food and grass. If rewards were difficult, he would send money.
Jiang He'er said: "Ning Xing has more money and food."
yes!
Most of the accumulation of hundreds of years in Northern Liao was in Ningxing.
Yang Xuan's heart was burning. He looked up and saw that everyone's face was slightly red.
Damn it!
They are all a group of gangsters!
Yang Xuan felt that he was the bandit leader, and he led a group of men to grab a piece of it.
However, if you rob it, you won’t leave.
He took a bite of the bun and said, "Go and do something!"
Groups of prisoners were escorted out.
Yang Xuan is eating.
The prisoners looked at him in awe, and some knelt down and kowtowed.
More people knelt.
Kowtow to the man who is about to conquer Northern Liao.
Being pious is like worshiping a god.
Yang Xuan ate slowly, squinting his eyes, "The taste is really good!"
…
In Ningxing Palace.
The Queen Mother was imprisoned in her palace.
There is no shortage of three meals a day, and if there is anything missing, just mention it.
The eldest princess said, treat her kindly.
Everyone knew that this was for the sake of the little emperor, otherwise based on the stupid things the Queen Mother had done, a white silk ribbon would be her destination.
Boom!
The porcelain bowl fell to the floor, and fragments and food were scattered all over the floor.
The Queen Mother slapped her chopsticks on the table and raised her eyebrows, "Is Changling going to give me this?"
The staple food for breakfast is pancakes. Unlike the Southern Zhou Dynasty and the Southern Tang Dynasty, where rice is the staple food, in Guanzhong, the north, and Daliao, pasta is still the main food.
The noodles are fine noodles and the dish is stewed lamb chops. The soup looks clear and the lamb is fat and tender.
The waiter knelt down to clean up, and with a bang, a plate hit his head. He covered his head and slowly backed away.
Someone else has to deal with it.
The Queen Mother sneered and said: "She is controlling Your Majesty and dreaming of being the second emperor. The late Emperor is watching her! Watching how she behaves against the grain. By the way, why has Your Majesty not come to see me for so long?"
Although the Queen Mother was kept in seclusion, the little emperor would come to visit her every half month.
No one knows.
…
"His Majesty!"
Also in the bedroom, the little emperor looked pale and was breathing rapidly.
Wang Ju stood inside the door, listening to the medical officer whispering.
"...The poison has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. I and others have read many medical books, but they have not been able to find a way to detoxify. I did not dare to slack off, so they used other methods, but...the effect was very little."
"But it's not useful!" Wang Ju said.
The medical officer shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's the medicine that contains three parts of the poison. Your Majesty is young, and his gastrointestinal and internal organs are immature. In addition, he has been poisoned by lead poison for several years. How can he withstand the attack of a large number of decoctions?"
Wang Ju asked, "So, what about now?"
The medical officer lowered his head.
Wang Ju lowered his head, joy flashing in his eyes.
For him, Shen Tong and others, as well as He Lianfeng's ministers, they preferred that He Lianfeng's bloodline would rule Daliao.
Not for the sake of bloodline orthodoxy, but because Helianfeng’s bloodline is his own.
Only your own people will reuse your own people.
In the final analysis, it is still Chiguoguo's interests.
The accompanying female officer's eyes flashed with sadness, "Is the medicine no longer effective?"
The medical officer nodded, "I'm waiting, I'm incompetent."
"The eldest princess..."
The little emperor said weakly.
Wang Ju turned around and walked to the edge of the bed, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, take care of the child and raise your child. After the eldest princess returns, we can go out to the city to hunt together, okay?"
The little emperor said: "I had a dream before."
He didn't say anything about me.
"What did your Majesty dream about?" Wang Ju asked.
The little emperor said: "I dreamed about my father. My father said, why is my son here?"
Wang Ju looked at him and said for a long time: "Your Majesty misses the late emperor. He thinks about it every day and dreams about it every night."
"Father slapped me and I woke up." The little emperor smiled sheepishly.
"Have a good rest!"
Someone is coughing outside.
Wang Ju turned around and went out.
Outside the door, a chamberlain said: "Someone just reported that Wan Lingxiao convened a lot of people over at Eagle Guard for a secret discussion. When they came out, many people's faces turned red and they were very excited."
"knew."
…
eagle guard,
Wan Lingxiao entered He Lianhong's check-in room.
"Great Commander, I just spoke to those people and they swore allegiance to the Commander-in-Chief."
Wan Lingxiao looked at He Lianhong with burning eyes.
He Lianhong said: "How is it in the palace?"
Wan Lingxiao said: "The little emperor has not shown up in the palace for a long time. Wang Ju and others are dealing with political affairs."
Helian Hong was silent.
Wan Lingxiao leaned forward, "General, the eldest princess is leading the army outside, Xiao Hua and others are also leaving with the army, Ning Xing is empty, this is the best time! If we don't take action, it will be too late."
He Lianhong stroked the desk and said, "This desk has been with me for many years. How about making firewood to burn it?"
Wan Lingxiao smiled and said: "If you don't use the cases that the commander-in-chief has used, you can give them to your subordinates."
"oh!"
He Lianhong glanced at him, "Is there any battle report ahead?"
"Let me go and ask."
Wan Lingxiao went out.
"Changling!"
Helian Hong sighed quietly.
There was actually a bit of coldness in his eyes.
Wan Lingxiao came back, "Commander, he said that King Lianjiang won the first battle."
"He Liantong is an old fox. If he wins the first battle, he will definitely say it is a great victory to boost the people's morale. In this way, the first battle will be evenly divided at most!"
He Lianhong squinted her eyes, "The time has come."
"yes!"
Wan Lingxiao was very excited.
He Lianhong raised his head, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
