Guard general Ding Hao is still making arrangements in the official residence at this moment.
"The envoy said, although Yang Dog is most likely to attack Taizhou in this battle, we in Kunzhou cannot afford to be careless. We need to send more scouts. If there is anything suspicious, no matter what, we should give a warning first. The envoy said, even if
It’s fake, so I’ll take credit for now.”
This is a pre-war incentive method. Granting money for no reason may boost morale, but it is a method that hints at thieves. Regular armies rarely do this.
Everyone agreed, and Ding Hao said with a smile: "If the city is defeated despite being so cautious, it is God's will. But isn't God our relative?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Everyone laughed.
"What sound?"
Someone is paying attention.
"It sounds like the sound of horse hooves and crying..."
Bang!
The door was kicked open, and the sound from outside rushed in.
The sound of horse hooves, screams, begging for mercy...
A sergeant rushed in and said with a pale face: "The enemy has entered the city."
Ding Hao's expression changed drastically, "Who?"
"Wang Lao Er!"
The sound of horse hooves keeps getting closer.
"Sure!"
Everyone was panicked.
"Be careful and close the gate of the official house!"
Ding Hao strode out of the duty room, and the sergeants rushed into the mansion in panic, running around like headless chickens.
"Assemble!"
Ding Hao killed one person, and the rest were honest.
"close the door!"
The official gate is closed.
Boom, boom, boom!
"Open the door!"
"Xiangan, open the door!"
"Cao Ni Ma, open the door!"
The shouting stopped abruptly.
It seemed as if something had arrived outside the gate.
Ding Hao heard the sound of the horses snorting.
Then……
"Second brother, I am willing to surrender!"
Ding Hao slowly turned back.
His subordinates looked pale.
That crazy man with a head is here.
No one is afraid of a normal fight, and the worst possible outcome is death.
But in the Northern Liao tradition, if a person's head is in a different place, his soul will dissipate between heaven and earth.
Therefore, wherever Wang Laoer went, the enemy troops were frightened.
Outside the gate, looking at the defenders kneeling on the ground, Wang Laoer sighed.
"What a head!"
Tu Chang resisted the urge to slap him and said, "Second brother, the defeated troops have fled into the city. They must be wiped out immediately, otherwise the Duke will not be able to enter the city.
Before that, we must attack this place first."
"This is not a problem!"
Wang Laoer habitually touched a piece of dried meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
Somewhat tangled and regretful, he shouted: "Come out, I won't take the heads of those waiting for you."
It was silent inside.
Wang Laoer felt a little embarrassed.
The fat elder sighed: "Second brother, how about breaking down the wall!"
The gate looked strong, but stupidly, the wall was loose.
Wang Laoer was chewing dried meat in his mouth, feeling a little annoyed.
It seems that there have been fewer killings recently.
The Duke is to blame for this, he always says that if you want to find a wife, you have to kill less people, lest you smell like blood and no woman will like you.
So Wang Laoer has been staying in Tao County honestly recently, and when he has nothing to do, he goes to talk to the county mistress.
You really don’t blame me!
Wang Laoer became furious and was about to speak.
Someone shouted inside.
"real?"
Wang Laoer scolded: "If you don't open the door for ten breaths, I will kill all of you and build a temple in Beijing."
The thin elder said: "Second brother, there are only hundreds of people inside. Is this Jingguan a little small?"
"You can become more powerful when you are young!"
The fat elder retorted.
Suddenly the sound of fighting came from inside.
Squeak!
The door opened, and two groups of people could be seen fighting inside.
"Which side should we help?"
The fat elder was dumbfounded.
"I'm not helping either way."
Wang Laoer was eating dried meat and watching the fight, and suddenly he missed Lin'an's juggling troupe.
The slight sadness quickly dissipated.
He can clearly distinguish between his passers-by and his fellow travelers.
The results were quickly revealed inside, and guard Ding Hao was kidnapped by his subordinate Wu Huada.
"Second brother!"
Wang Laoer nodded, "Those who surrender will be disarmed, but they will be given meat to eat at night!"
Immediately, the Northern Xinjiang Army began to clear out the defeated troops in the city.
Just in the afternoon, the scouts discovered the enemy.
"In the east!" The Northern Xinjiang Army's rangers began to pursue.
More than a hundred Northern Liao scouts on horseback saw them and immediately fled away.
…
Taizhou.
After strangling the strong men who opposed him, Lin Jun was busy integrating the Taizhou army and officials from various places.
Dozens of officials were taken to the prefecture.
"I heard that you are full of complaints?"
Lin Jun asked.
No one answered.
These officials are the opponents.
"If you don't say anything, do you think I'll take care of you and wait for you to do nothing?"
Lin Jun smiled, "Here comes someone!"
A group of sergeants came in outside the door.
Lin Jun pointed at these officials and said: "These people colluded with Northern Xinjiang and captured them all. Those who resist...kill them!"
"Lin Gou! How dare you!"
When the screams came, Lin Jun didn't move his eyes and said to Shen Changhe beside him: "The roads are almost dry now and the spring plowing is almost ready. It is a good time to send troops. I don't think Yang Xuan will
Don't miss this opportunity.
We don’t have much time left, so we must clean up Taizhou as soon as possible. If it’s clean, it’ll be easier to receive guests!”
Shen Changhe said: "The important thing is to know where he wants to attack."
"It's nothing more than Taizhou, or...Kunzhou!"
“Kunzhou is remote!”
"Remote? Kunzhou can form a pincer attack with Neizhou and Longhuazhou."
"But although there are constant messengers from Sang Yuanxing, they are quite wary of us. It's not easy to deal with!"
"If you let him endure hardship, he will naturally become smarter." Lin Jun said coldly: "What is he worried about? It's just that he is worried that I will take advantage of the opportunity of rescue and swallow up Kunzhou."
"It's not easy to swallow." Shen Changhe smiled bitterly, "We were able to capture Taizhou because that idiot took the initiative to invite us. If we swallow Kunzhou again, there is no chance that the eldest princess will choose to join forces with the emperor."
"This is what my husband is worried about, otherwise I have plenty of means to take down that idiot Sang Yuanxing!"
"Please spare your life!"
An official stumbled over and knelt down to beg for mercy.
Lin Jun looked indifferent, "Yang Xuan has to be careful of being flanked this time, so the scale of the troops sent will not be small. Once he takes action, the momentum will be huge. However, be careful of his forwards."
A sergeant chased after him and chopped down the official with a knife.
"Your Majesty..."
The official screamed.
Lin Jun said: "If we use the forward to break the situation, it is a surprise attack!"
Shen Changhe said: "Since half a month ago, the envoy has sent more scouts. If Yang Xuan wants to use the vanguard to make a surprise attack, I am afraid he will be disappointed."
"I'm just afraid he won't come!"
Lin Jun said.
"Your Majesty!"
A sergeant appeared in front.
Lin Jun pointed at him and said, "Bring it here."
A clerk went around from the side and brought the sergeant over.
At this moment, there were corpses everywhere in the yard, and the sergeant was a little scared when he saw them.
"What's the matter?" Lin Jun asked.
"Your Majesty, Yang Xuan's army has been dispatched."
Shen Changhe sighed, "It's finally here."
Lin Jun rubbed his eyebrows, "Yang Xuan likes to attack the most. When we received the news, the main force of his cavalry was estimated to be not far away. Order, the whole army assemble!"
"What do you mean by your Majesty, he is not coming to Taizhou?"
Lin Jun nodded, "Yang Xuan attaches great importance to the scout war. If he wants to attack Taizhou, he will definitely send his sharpest scout general Wang Laoer to kill our army's morale. Since Wang Laoer did not come, then... Kun state!"
He looked in the direction of Kunzhou, "Yang Xuan's move was unexpected. He is indeed a famous general of the Tang Dynasty. Prepare to reinforce Kunzhou!"
"Even if Yang Xuan captured Neizhou, he is still being attacked by me from both sides. It's like a dragon trapped in a shoal. He can't wait to send troops because he wants to hide the dragon out of the sea. We should cut off his outstretched claws!" Shen Changhe smiled, a little ferocious.
"When attacked from both sides, the undefeated are rare!"
Lin Jun looked at the map and said, "Send someone to Ningxing to report the news, saying that the troops in Northern Xinjiang are moving and their whereabouts are unknown."
Shen Changhe was startled at first, then smiled and said: "The whereabouts are unknown, and I, Taizhou, have to beware of Yang Xuan's surprise attack. In this way, you can attack when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat. Ning Xing cannot blame him."
"Many times, most people don't like this kind of sluggishness. How good would it be if everything focused on the Liao Dynasty?" Lin Jun shook his head, "How many people are dedicated to serving the country? Even the emperor is still full of scheming."
"Where will he hit?" Shen Changhe was also looking at the map.
"Yangcheng Baode is in front. If he attacks Yangcheng first, he will attack Baode from a flank. Maybe he would do this when he was the governor of Chenzhou. But now, as the governor of Northern Xinjiang and the Duke of Qin, he holds the Heavy troops, the use of troops is becoming more and more grand. So..."
Lin Jun pointed at Baode, "He must capture Baode first and find a foothold for the army!"
A sergeant came outside the door.
"Your Majesty, urgent military situation."
Lin Jun was still looking at the map, "Say."
"Yang Xuan used Wang Laoer as the vanguard, attacked Baode, and defeated him in one battle!"
Shen Changhe glanced at Lin Jun.
Lin Jun was still looking at the map, "Yangcheng is in danger!"
The envoy was still calm... Shen Changhe said: "The envoy, Wang Laoer has defeated Baode, and Yang Xuan's army has a foothold."
"You want to say, I should just sit back and watch?" Lin Jun's finger stopped at Long Chuan.
"Our army's attack is a field battle." Shen Changhe said in a low voice: "After all, I don't know what Ning Xing means. If Ning Xing is cruel... If the army attacks, someone will steal our retreat."
"The emperor would not be so unwise." Lin Jun glanced at him, "I know counselors like to turn everything into conspiracy, but during wartime, if the emperor dares to cut my way out, my husband will dare to rebel."
He turned his attention away from the map, "Where does the emperor's authority come from? Every word and deed, supplemented by the throne, is the prestige of the emperor. The ministers send troops to defend against foreign enemies, and the emperor takes the retreat and stabs Daozi, He Lianchun is not Li Mi. Li Mi has a stronger foundation than him, but he still doesn’t dare to do this..."
"The envoy is saying that Yang Xuan dared to send troops this time because Li Bi did not dare to cut his way out?"
"Don't forget, the Zhou family is in court!"
Shen Changhe smiled.
"Yes! If he dares to send troops, the Zhou family will dare to say that he is a foolish king."
"Come here!" Lin Jun stood up.
A clerk came in and said, "Your Majesty!"
"Call the generals and assemble the army."
"Take orders!"
Later, Lin Jun appeared in the lobby.
His civil and military officers stood below, in two rows.
"You know it all!"
Lin Jun was sitting on it, with a long knife on the desk in front of him.
"Yang Xuan indeed sent troops, but it was not Taizhou, but Kunzhou. Kunzhou and Taizhou are at odds with each other. On this occasion, I am determined to send troops to rescue. What do you think?"
Brainstorm ideas before the war, and do not interfere with the general's determination during the war. This is military discipline.
A general said: "How long can Sang Yuanxing hold on? Maybe he will attack Yang Xuan together with our army? If not, sir, we will be fighting alone."
"I don't like to have many people."
Lin Jun rubbed the handle of the knife without any decoration.
"Those people in Ningxing love to brag and brag about how great their ancestors are. They brag about it but don't mention themselves. At this point in Liao Dynasty, we should work hard to become stronger, but how can we work hard? We are facing each other in the south and northern Xinjiang, but we have to worry about being attacked. Ning Xing took a backseat, which is outrageous!"
One of Lin Jun's followers was astonished and thought to himself, didn't the envoy say earlier that Ning Xing would not dare to take his own retreat in this battle?
He glanced at Shen Changhe and saw that Shen Changhe's face was calm, as if he had known that Lin Jun would say this.
"I could have stood firm, but I could have just sat back and watched Kunzhou be lost. How could I bear it?" Lin Jun said coldly: "In this case, we will send 50,000...30,000 troops!"
When he mentioned 50,000, he obviously hesitated, and then changed his words to 30,000.
Why?
Everyone knows it.
Naturally, if you can use 50,000, you won't have 30,000.
But you are worried that if you take the lead, your back will lose its base, so you still have to leave 20,000 troops to suppress Taizhou.
The emperor was supposed to be the backing of his ministers, but when he arrived in Liao Dynasty, he became the enemy of his ministers.
What the hell!
The generals looked gloomy, even furious.
"This battle is so frustrating!" a general couldn't help but say.
"Go get ready!"
Lin Jun waved his hand and the generals retired.
After the generals left, Shen Changhe praised: "The envoy's words were perfect. In this way, the generals and the emperor are not far away from each other."
Lin Jun said quietly: "I prefer to compete with my opponents rather than fighting in a nest. Ning Xing, that fat idiot."
…
The endless army was marching at a glance.
Scouts come and go incessantly.
Under the banner of Yang Zi, Yang Xuan smiled and said: "The boys are in high spirits, but it is a pity that Sang Yuanxing will not dare to fight in the field. Otherwise, the battle in Kunzhou will be fought."
"How dare he fight with the Duke?" Jiang Cunzhong said with a smile.
"However, be careful about the food supply." Han Ji reminded.
A group of scouts approached, "Duke."
Yang Xuan nodded, and the leader was led over.
Seeing Yang Xuan, the old soldier's face turned red with excitement, "My lord, we found a Taizhou scout on the right wing."
"Expected things."
Yang Xuan nodded and said: "Second, I will defeat Baode in the first battle. This will give our army time to arrange its arrangements calmly. Pass my order and use Baode as the transportation center for baggage."
"yes."
Woohoo!
More than a thousand riders appeared in front.
"It's the second child!"
The old thief laughed.
This idiot.
Wang Laoer rode up to the center of the army, reined in his horse and handed over his hand, "My lord, I'm under Baode!"
Everyone looked at him showing off with a smile.
Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Well done!"
Wang Laoer said: "My lord, let me go to Yangcheng!"
In an instant, all the generals became angry.
Do you want to co-write this battle and do it all?
What a big face!
Yang Xuan waved his hand, "Follow!"
"oh!"
Wang Laoer rode over, winked at the old thief and said, "Old thief, I can break the city."
The old thief just laughed.
The army marched all the way.
Until Yangcheng.
Yang Xuan rode his horse closer to the city, wanting to take a closer look at whether the city was strong or not.
"It looks good!"
Pei Jian nodded, "It has been reinforced, and it looks like it was recently repaired."
Fei Le, the guard of Yangcheng, sneered: "Young dog is so careless that he dares to approach the city, Li San!"
Li San was the most outstanding archer in the army, and he used a huge bow. The eagle shooters in the army could only pull his bow half way at most.
This is Feile's trump card.
A short, stocky sergeant came over.
Fei Le pointed at Yang Xuan, "Shoot Yang Gou and I guarantee you the first prize!"
Li San took a closer look, "He dares to come close, this is heavenly punishment! Wait carefully."
He never lies, so he feels happy and secretly happy.
Li San took out his big bow, opened the bow and nocked an arrow, aimed at Yang Xuan with one eye, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
let go.
"die!"
The arrows flew past like lightning.
In an instant, he was in front of Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan was still looking at the top of the city, as if he knew nothing, just sitting there waiting for death.
"good!"
Feile couldn't help but be ecstatic.
Choking!
The light of the knife flashed.
The arrow shattered.
Then the sword was sheathed.
Pei Jian held the guard's spear with one hand and threw it towards the city.
Feile lowered his head subconsciously.
Then screams were heard.
He looked sideways.
Li San, who was still in front of the city battlement before, was now leaning on the edge of the city tower. The spear penetrated his chest and nailed him to the city tower.
The whole city is silent!
Under the city, Yang Xuan pointed to the top of the city.
