Chapter 39 Li Jing's Strange Conspiracy
Luo Shi was anxious and ran all the way into the military yamen for twenty days. The Turkic army refused to attack, but the offensive and defensive battle in Hekou City was extremely fierce. The Sui army suffered more than 20,000 people. Although the city had not been broken yet, if they confronted the Turkic army again, everyone would be afraid that the news of the city would be broken one day.
.)
Luo Shixin does not completely represent himself. He is Yang Yuanqing's junior brother. Dozens of generals found him and asked him to persuade the head coach to stop the confrontation and break the deadlock...
The soldiers of the military yamen did not stop him and directly let Luo Shixin enter the yamen. In the yard, Yang Yuanqing was practicing swords. The sword light was shining and the wind and rain were not clear. More than a dozen personal soldiers stood on both sides.
Luo Shixin walked to the yard, and suddenly a sword light flashed, and a sword light stabbed towards him. Luo Shixin flashed sideways and drew his sword to slash at him. The guards on both sides exclaimed in surprise. Luo Shixin realized that something was wrong, and radiated his body backwards and jumped out of the battle circle.
Yang Yuanqing withdrew his sword and smiled, "Why don't you fight?"
"You are the general manager, I dare not take the blame." Luo Shixin glanced at the personal soldier who was glaring at him.
Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly, handed the sword to his personal soldiers, walked to the stone table, picked up the tea and took a sip. His calmness made Luo Shixin quite anxious, and he hurried forward and said, "The soldiers are all worried about Hekou City. Twenty days have passed, and everyone is afraid of the city being destroyed."
"There is nothing to do. The Turks blocked us in Dali City, and we have no way to rescue us." Yang Yuanqing smiled faintly.
"But...."
Luo Shixin blushed and said, "This deadlock can be broken and no longer confrontation."
"break in?"
Yang Yuanqing glanced at him and asked with a smile: "Look, how do you break it?"
Luo Shixin lowered his head and muttered, "You are the supervisor, why are you asking me back?"
Yang Yuanqing smiled and patted the junior brother on the shoulder, "I'm going to look out to the tower, come with me!"
The two of them turned over and walked towards the overlooking tower together. Although Luo Shixin did not have the ability to command the overall situation like Yang Yuanqing, he was not stupid. He also understood that Yang Yuanqing knew that Yang Yuanqing was confident and Luo Shixin was not anxious.
"Senior brother, listen to the method of the five tiger generals in Fengzhou?"
Yang Yuanqing smiled and nodded, "In the past, the Sui army had the laws of the top ten generals, and the Fengzhou army could not be spared. However, this was the selection of the soldiers themselves, it had nothing to do with me, nor with the government. The first general of the Five Tigers was Pei Xingyan, who had excellent martial arts skills and was known as the best of both spears and hammers. The archery technique can rank third in Fengzhou, so he is recognized as the first; the second general is Su Dingfang, with excellent sword skills and archery techniques, but he was slightly inferior in strength, so he was behind Pei Xingyan;
The third general is Yang Wei, known as a desperate maiden. His martial arts are guided by his master and his hammering skills are brilliant. [I] are born with divine power, but he is not as popular as Yang Sien in terms of martial arts. However, his popularity is far better than Yang Sien who has a gloomy face all day long. Everyone likes him and recommends him as third. Yang Sien is fourth, known as the number one general of Modao, and is invincible. The fifth is Gao Zikai, Gao Jin's nephew, and the descendant of a famous family. He has high martial arts skills and can rank fourth in Fengzhou."
"What about you, senior brother?" Luo Shixin asked strangely.
Yang Yuanqing laughed, and a personal guard next to him couldn't help but snuck, "The general manager is handsome, not a general."
Luo Shixin's face suddenly turned red. He glared at his personal soldiers fiercely, and after a while, he said, "I wonder where Brother Qin can rank?"
Yang Yuanqing really likes this junior brother. He is simple and straightforward, but he is a little bit concise. He obviously wants to know which one he can rank, but he brings Qin Qiong out. Yang Yuanqing teased him and said, "This is the ranking of the soldiers, and I never ask. If Qin Qiong has the opportunity to show his superb martial arts, he might be called the Six Tiger General. Qin Qiong may be able to enter the top three! Niu Jinda is also good, you can compete."
Afterwards, Yang Yuanqing raised his hand and ran towards Qionglong Mountain in front. Luo Shixin's face was swelling even more purple-red than pig's liver. That year, he competed with Pei Xingyan with martial arts once in Qi County. Now his martial arts skills are improved, and even his master is not his opponent. Why doesn't the senior brother mention him? No! He must compete with Pei Xingyan again.
"I forgot to tell you."
Yang Yuanqing shouted in the long run: "This ranking is based on the ability to kill enemies. Fengzhou Army is most disgusted with internal struggle."
.........
There are two viewing towers in the city of Deli, one on the top of the stone mountain behind, and the other on the outer city. The viewing tower in the city of Delivery has been destroyed, leaving only one on the top of the stone mountain.
Yang Yuanqing took Luo Shixin to the top of the mountain from the plank road. The viewing tower was actually a beacon tower and an alarm tower. Ten soldiers were stationed, not high in themselves, only three floors, made of bluestone. When the weather was clear, you could see the Yellow River from here from afar.
The two of them went up to the top of the tower and their vision suddenly became clear. The Turkic camp was clearly placed in front of them. Some were deployed in the outer city, while most of the Turkic army were deployed outside the Dali city.
Yang Yuanqing pointed to two Turkic camps with a horse whip and said to Luo Shixin: "Did you see the enemy's strength? It's only 130,000 to 140,000 at most. In these 20 days, they attacked Hekou City and died nearly 40,000 more. Then the Turkic army had less than 200,000. For me, there are still too many troops. I must press them to less than 150,000 and let their 300,000 cavalry lose half of them, so that they can kill them and make them have a memory. More importantly, the strength of the Wutu tribe has been restored to balance with them, and the Wutu tribe can restrain the Turks for me, so that they cannot move south in large numbers, so that I have no worries."
Luo Shixin nodded silently. He understood what Yang Yuanqing meant. He could not have such a general idea. Luo Shixin sighed softly, "But we also suffered heavy losses."
"There is no way to do this."
Yang Yuanqing also said helplessly: "Killing 3,000 enemies and losing 800 to themselves. This is a situation of victory. What's more, we are far from talking about winning, but we are not defeated. It is impossible for the 300,000 Turkic army to invade Fengzhou without casualties. More than 6,000 people were killed and injured in Dali City, and the total number of 12,000 people was killed and injured in Yongfeng City, and more than 20,000 people were killed in Hekou City, which is almost 40,000 people. Compared with the Turkic army's death, it is already very good. If it weren't for offensive and defensive wars, we would have been wiped out."
At this point, Yang Yuanqing's eyes became brighter, and his eyes were full of confidence. He stared at a black dot flying from the sky in the distance. The black dot was getting closer and closer, and several personal soldiers shouted, "Master, it's Xinying!"
A vigorous eagle began to hover over the city of Italy. Yang Yuanqing smiled and said to Luo Shixin: "Aren't you looking forward to breaking the deadlock? The moment you are looking forward to is here."
.........
Yang Yuanqing carefully looked at the eagle letter sent by Pei Renji. Li Jing led 10,000 cavalry and 4,000 Modao Army to support Hekou City from Lingwu. The Turkic camp was burned and forced to retreat for ten miles. The decisive battle between the Sui army and the Turkic army in Hekou City was about to begin.
Yang Yuanqing immediately ordered, "Transfer my order, the army will withdraw the inner city and give the middle city to the enemy!"
Although countless soldiers couldn't figure out why the general manager wanted to make another city, the military orders were as high as a mountain. The Sui army guarding the central city slowly evacuated from the suspension bridge back to the inner city. Fifty heavy trenchers were destroyed again, and the suspension bridge leading to the outer city wall in the central city was also demolished.
Near the afternoon and evening, the Sui army's abnormal behavior was discovered by the Turkic army. The outer city lord Mengda immediately sent someone to the main camp to inform Shibi Khan. Duji rushed over after hearing the news.
Hundreds of Turkic troops surrounded Khans and checked the situation of the Sui army hundreds of steps away. Duji frowned, thinking about Yang Yuanqing's intention to do so.
The second prince, Shiliver, said: "Khan, I think the purpose of the Sui army is to drag us to Dali City and not allow us to support Hekou City."
Duji nodded slowly, "You must be right. Yang Yuanqing was giving in to profit to lure us, and wanted to drag us to Dali City. They had Eagle Letter, and the news was faster than us. If I was not wrong, there should be a major change in Hekou City. I suspect that reinforcements from Lingwu County have arrived."
At this point, Duji's eyes became worried. After twenty days of siege, the Turkic army in Hekou City was already exhausted. If the Sui army reinforcements and the city defenders jointly attacked the Turkic army, could Duji's army withstand it?
Duji immediately said to Shiliver: "You can lead 30,000 cavalrymen from our headquarters to help Duji quickly. Even if you can't conquer Kawaguchi City, you must ensure that his army will retreat."
"I get it, go now!"
Shi Liversha turned around and left. At the moment he turned around, a trace of undetectable strange color flashed in his eyes. He whipped the horse and headed towards the camp.
Mengda next to him said extremely excitedly: "Khan, the Sui army has only one defense, we can attack in full and capture the inner city."
"no!"
Duji flatly denied, "The city of Zhongcheng is too narrow and easily attacked by Sui army. The more than 10,000 Xue Yantuo's army was burned to death by the Sui army in Zhongcheng."
"What should I do?" Mengda became anxious. He was afraid that he would not be able to kill Yang Yuanqing, and finally the army withdrew back to the grassland.
Duji stared at the crescent-shaped midtown. He knew that the inner city was half a foot shorter than the midtown. He sneered coldly, and he wanted Yang Yuanqing to shoot himself in the foot.
Thinking of this, he immediately said to Mengdaling: "You transfer ten thousand people to the middle city, shoot arrows at the inner city walls day and night, suppress the Sui army. The other 30,000 people used stones to demolish the city to lay a gentle slope of the city, so that our stone-treating function must be completed before dawn."
Duji showed a sinister sneer on his face. He imagined the grand occasion of the inner city wall tomorrow when hundreds of catapults smashed the inner city wall. Does Yang Yuanqing think that one city can hold him back? Do he think he really doesn't plan to attack the city? He was very wrong. He would regret his own smart decision!
The Turkic army began to launch an offensive. Ten thousand Turkic troops occupied the city and began to shoot arrows at the inner city. The overwhelming rain of arrows made the Sui army unable to gain a foothold on the city and had to retreat. At the same time, 30,000 Turkic troops used stones to demolish the houses to build the gentle slope of the city.
Night gradually fell.
