Defense and offense are always enemies. How to play the game between spear and shield will test the ability of both sides' generals.

Judging from Yang Xuan's past experience, he loves raids the most.

Every time they attacked a place, the vanguard of the Northern Xinjiang Army suddenly appeared in front of the city like a thunderbolt, using the most violent means to break through the city and win a foothold for the army.

With a place to stay, the food, grass and baggage will have a place to store it, so that it will not be piled up in the camp, exposed to the sun and rain, and once it is raided, it will be destroyed.

The role of a foothold does not end there. With a foothold, the army can advance and attack, and retreat and defend.

Only when you have no worries can you maintain a calm attitude.

But later on, most of the opponents were prepared. For example, in the case of Tanzhou City, after constantly harassing Yanbei City, Tanzhou City's defenses were strengthened.

The scouts are placed far away, and the rotation speed is fast, which greatly increases the difficulty of the raid.

Therefore, even if Wang Laoer eliminated a few scouts, he still would not be able to sneak attack Tanzhou City.

But no one expected that Yang Xuan would let Tanzhou City go and raid Huonan County after Tanzhou instead.

Xie Chang's face turned pale, "I thought he would raid Tanzhou, but I didn't expect that he would outflank the retreat."

He suddenly turned sideways and looked at Shen Changhe, "As soon as Mr. Shen came to Tanzhou, he brought most of the troops from Huonan County and other places to Tanzhou City. Was he prepared for this?"

Shen Changhe asked instead, "Are the powerful men in the city under guard?"

Xie Chang nodded, "They are all under guard, but I thought they would not dare to cause trouble."

"Don't underestimate people's hearts!" Shen Changhe said: "After the emperor took control of the three states, he purged them several times, but some people are still dissatisfied."

"But that's Yang Gou, my enemy of Daliao!"

Even though Lin Jun separated the three states, the officials, soldiers and civilians of the three states still regarded themselves as Daliao people.

"You have to remember one thing." Shen Changhe seemed to be saying to Xie Chang, but in fact he was looking at Ma He, "The richer the person, the more afraid of death and the more greedy he is."

"Most of those who say that life is bitter are those who have no worries about food and clothing. Meat eaters also say that life is bitter, but it is mostly caused by greed." Ma He said with a smile: "While they say that life is bitter, they work hard at the same time. Think of ways to prolong your life. If you are used to enjoying things and doing things like masters, you will naturally be reluctant to die."

These words are clear but mean!

Moreover, his Shangguan Xie Chang is here, exposing the flesh-eater in front of Shangguan. Do you still want to be promoted?

If he doesn't cheat you, then Xie Chang is broad-minded.

Shen Changhe sighed secretly, thinking that it was no wonder that this person could not be reused.

But Lin Jun employs people in an eclectic way. He has no moral composure and would dare to use you even if you are shameless.

Lin Jun once said: If I lure a shameless person with benefits, he will naturally flock to me and do his best.

But Lin Jun later said that to use this kind of people, you must have the ability to penetrate his mind, otherwise, you will get stabbed by him one day.

I also often say that all life is bitter... Xie Chang coughed uncomfortably. When he had nothing to do, he liked to go outside to burn incense, pray to gods, and pray for longevity... and wealth. Isn't it just the meat in Mahekou? or?

"Once Huonan County is lost, Weixi County will be in danger. Over there..." Xie Chang asked tentatively: "When can help come?"

Shen Changhe waved to the sergeant who came to report the news and asked: "How many troops have come from the Northern Xinjiang Army?"

"Yes... yes..." The sergeant was eating cakes, puffing out his cheeks, and couldn't speak clearly. He swallowed the food hard and rolled his eyes, "More than 20,000."

"It should not stop."

Ma He said: "More than 20,000 people came to attack our Tanzhou, and they could only look at the city and sigh. The subordinate thought that Yang Xuan's main force should be nearby, waiting for our army to rescue Weixi County... to ambush them halfway."

Shen Changhe smiled and said: "After this battle, you follow me!"

Xie Chang glanced at Ma He before, seemingly smiling, but his eyes were cold. If Shen Changhe was not there, Ma He's future would be worrying.

Most of the great talents are not very moral.

Xie Chang smiled and said, "Why don't you thank Mr. Shen a lot?"

Ma He saluted, "Thank you, Mr. Shen."

Shen Changhe smiled and said: "You have great talent, so I naturally have the responsibility to recommend you to the envoy. When you get to Taizhou, do your best!"

He is not a person without a city, but he knows that Xie Chang

He was cruel, if he didn't say it openly at this moment, Xie Chang might be able to find an excuse to deal with Ma He while he was defending the city.

Moreover, it is guaranteed that he and Ma He will have nothing to say.

People!

It's not easy since birth, that's why it is said that all life is suffering.

But the vast majority of people, while saying that life is miserable, are desperately pursuing fame and wealth, jumping into the sea of ​​misery, and shouting: Be more miserable!

…

On the road from Tanzhou City to Weixi County, more than ten riders looked into the distance and rode to the right for a long time. Less than five miles ahead, tens of thousands of troops were resting.

"Is the Duke here?" the scout asked.

"In the back!"

Yang Xuan was sitting on the horse, with Jiang He'er beside him making a report.

"...After Jiang Zhonglang defeated Huonan, he immediately reorganized the city. He thought he was going to kill some people, but who knew that the few remaining powerful men in the city came out and took the initiative to help..."

This is so girly!

Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Tan eats a pot of juice to welcome Master Wang?"

He Lianrong said: "After Lin Jun separated the three states, many local powerful people opposed it and killed a group of people. Since this year, Lin Jun has been expanding his army crazily and was short of money and food, so he found excuses and killed another group of people. The powerful are afraid."

The powerful men who were killed all became the leading party!

But Lin Jun was so busy fishing, didn't he think about the future?

Yang Xuan was thinking about Lin Jun's mentality. If he were in this situation, he would suppress powerful people, but he would not use Lin Jun's violent methods.

He Lianrong seemed to know what he was thinking, and said: "Since the Duke took charge of Northern Xinjiang, powerful people have also made troubles, but the Duke has reasonable grounds and dealt with them within the circle of law. In this way, those powerful people know that, As long as our family does not violate the laws of Northern Xinjiang and does not harm the overall situation of our Northern Xinjiang, no matter how hard we try, the Duke will not deal with them."

Therefore, people’s hearts are at peace!

Jiang He'er said: "So I said that Lin Jun is known as the famous general of Northern Liao, but compared with the Duke, he is far behind."

Xiao He'er's flattery was always so sweet and sincere, and Boss Yang took advantage of it.

"My lord." Uda came over with a sergeant, "The scout is back."

The sergeant saluted, "My lord, Tanzhou has not sent any troops."

"I'm just spanking my children on cloudy days, and I'm just doing it when I'm idle. Since I'm not coming, I'll continue to rest."

When the army arrived at the outskirts of Tanwai, Yang Xuan led his army in a circle and camped between Tanzhou and Weixi County. Unexpectedly, Tanzhou did not even send a scout.

"My lord, this is a defensive situation!" Han Ji said: "I thought this was waiting for Lin Jun's reinforcements."

"Before I leave, I will tell you that if the Taizhou army is sent out, Nanhe will immediately send out troops to defeat Taizhou!"

Yang Xuan sat with a golden sword on his horse, took the water bag handed by Wu Da, raised his head and took a sip, and said happily: "If he doesn't come to help, I will attack Tanzhou. If he comes to help, I will attack Taizhou, and even Chenzhou."

"This is using force to suppress others!" Han Ji said with a smile.

The army rested, but the scouts were busy.

The news keeps coming.

"Jiang Zhonglang took control of Huonan County, and the powerful men took the initiative to lead the way and found the granary hidden by the guard."

These leading parties... Yang Xuan shook his head and said with a smile: "This reminds me that when a country is about to perish, people's hearts will disperse."

"My lord, over there in Weixi County..." Han Ji leaned over, "Do you want to take it down?"

Yang Xuan pondered, "The defenders in Huonan County are somewhat small, and most of them have been transferred to Tanzhou City. Xie Chang intends to abandon the small city below. So, leave it there. Once Tanzhou City is broken, Weixi and others

The ground will naturally break."

Otherwise, if Weixi County is captured, troops will have to be left behind to clean up and guard it.

He Lianrong said: "My lord, I would like to ask you to persuade the general to surrender."

"you……"

Yang Xuan hesitated for a moment.

Persuading people to surrender has always been a high-risk job. If someone accidentally enters, his head will be thrown off the top of the city.

He Lianrong smiled and said: "The poor monk has some contacts with that man."

He Lianrong had been in charge of Tanzhou City for several years and had some manpower.

"Times have changed..." Han Ji hinted to He Lianrong, don't take risks like this.

After all, the boss has said that Weixi County should be left there. When Tanzhou City is destroyed, the defender will either run away.

Or just wait to die.

"The Duke asked the poor monk to be his counselor. The poor monk must do something."

He Lianrong smiled.

This man is indeed ruthless, ruthless to others and ruthless to himself.
To be continued...
