In the remote suburbs of Yunzhong, Heng'an Town, this Zhou Guojun Town has been surrounded by the Turkic army and was blocked. The battle lasted for three days. Heng'an Town was already crumbling and could not hold on.

The Zhou army, who was ordered to go to the front line of the Great Wall, had to warn the front line on the day when they arrived in Heng'an Town, and learned that the Turkic troops had broken through the Great Wall and headed south, not far from Heng'an.

In order to gain time for Yunzhong to prepare for war, this Zhou army and the garrison in Heng'an Town occupied the city to defend the enemy.

They planned to withstand the enemy's offensive first and wait for reinforcements from Yunzhong. Unexpectedly, the invading Turkic troops gathered more and more, surrounding the city.

The Turkic army attacked as soon as it sieges the city, and it kept going for three days and nights. Now the Zhou army in the city has suffered a lot of casualties and cannot rest well. With the addition of arrows, sky thunder and other weapons, it is becoming more and more difficult to stick to it.

In the north of the city, Zhou soldiers were repairing the gaps by a collapsed city wall. The "patch" of wooden fences and sandbags that were erected in haste seemed solid, but no one could tell how long it could last under the strong attack of the Turkic army.

Seeing the tents rising outside the city, the soldiers looked solemn.

General Li Yaowang climbed up to the wooden fence, used a thousand-mile mirror to observe the enemy situation, and then looked at almost everyone's injured subordinates, with a serious expression.

This time, the Turks made a large-scale attack, and he was ordered to attack. Although he was prepared before setting off, he knew that the next battle would be fierce, but he didn't expect that his side was so lucky that he would encounter the main force of the enemy.

This time, the emperor sent troops to fight against the Turks, and set up a general marching commander to lead the army to fight. Li Yaowang was not the general marching commander, and although his army had a large number of troops, he was not the main force to attack.

Their primary task is to consolidate the Great Wall defense line, and the secondary purpose is to assist Yunzhong in strengthening its defense. As for the important task of finding the main force of the enemy and fighting decisively, other troops are responsible for it.

As a result, I got my wish and fought the main Turkic force as I wished.

But the disparity in troops is too great, and it is impossible to win more with less.

He fought for three days and nights, and the soldiers were exhausted and consumed a lot of supplies. He didn't know when reinforcements would arrive. Li Yaowang felt that if it was a normal day, he should consider breaking through.

When breaking through, most soldiers may be killed, especially the troops that are cut off are basically dead; but if they do not break through, everyone will be ruined.

But now we cannot break through. Even if everyone dies in battle, we cannot break through without authorization.

They must guard for at least five days, otherwise they will be subject to military law even if they break through.

When encountering an enemy in Yunzhong area, unless the entire army is wiped out, they must hold on for five days. This is the death order given by the emperor to the team to King Li Yao. No one in the army dares to violate it.

Not to mention the military orders, just say that if the emperor dares not listen to the orders issued by the emperor himself, not only will he be in trouble, but he may also cause his family to suffer. It would be better to die in the battlefield and his family would be given a pension.

It is precisely because of this that even though Heng'an was shaking, the soldiers of the Zhou army still planned to grit their teeth and defend to the death.

Not to mention that the emperor is now in charge of Jinyang and dispatching troops from all over the country. When he learned that Heng'an was besieged by the main force of the enemy, he would not refuse to save him, and would definitely mobilize troops to rescue him.

Or lead the main force to attack and come to Yunzhong to fight the Turkic army!

When they thought of this, the Zhou army soldiers in Heng'an Town were very excited. The emperor had fought on the battlefield for more than ten years, had great achievements and had never lost. Now he is the emperor's personal expedition. If he learns that the main force of the Turks appears in the clouds, he will definitely come to fight.

At that time, Heng'an Zhou army will be able to participate in this huge decisive battle, make military achievements in bloody battles, and win the title of wife and son.

It is precisely because of this belief that the soldiers have the confidence to stick to it, and Li Yaowang also firmly believes in this and is much more confident when encouraging the soldiers.

For two days, as long as you persist for two days, reinforcements will definitely arrive!

At this moment, many soldiers took advantage of the battle to take a nap, or ate some dry food to replenish their energy, seize the time to regain their energy, and welcome the next round of attack from the enemy.

However, not long after, the horn outside the city sounded like a tide, breaking the brief tranquility, and a new round of attack from the Turks began.

King Li Yaowang asked his followers to sound the horn and assembled soldiers to prepare for the battle.

Many soldiers who were dozing against the wall were awakened by the sound of horns. They picked up their weapons, stood up and gathered in a row, then climbed to the top of the city and prepared at their respective defensive positions.

After three days of fierce battle, although there was only a few thunder left in the soldiers' hands, the battle was not only driven by the thunder. The arrows were used up and there were also sword spears, and the sword spears were broken and there were stones.

The stone is gone, and there are fists!

Seeing the enemy troops approaching outside the city and the soldiers guarding the city were in full swing, there was movement in the south of the city.

It seemed that someone was cheering and the sound was getting louder and louder.

When King Li Yao heard this, his heart suddenly stopped: Could it be that someone opened the door and offered the city, and the Turkic soldiers came in?

This thought made him feel cold. Soon, cavalry rushed along the street and cheered from afar: "Reinforcements! Reinforcements are coming!!"

.....

"Ji Sheng, Emperor Yuwen, who is said to be very powerful in war, what do you say to convey to you?"

"Khan, Your Majesty hopes that the two countries will cease to fight, and that the wife can live a peaceful life and do business to solve things, why bother to fight?"

"Ha, I forgot that your Emperor Yuwen is not only good at fighting, but also good at doing business... Why, is he still short of money?"

"What did Khan say? Your Majesty is not short of money. He just thinks that money can solve the problem. Why fight and kill?"

"You said this for Emperor Yuwen?"

In the big tent, Datou Khan Ashina Yanjue talked with Changsun Sheng, the visiting Zhou envoy. The two sat opposite each other, while Datou Khan's guards were outside the tent, with only one follower standing a few steps away, waiting to serve the two of them at any time.

Changsun Sheng is an old acquaintance to many Turkic nobles, and the Khans of all sizes admire this archer who can kill two birds with one stone. Of course, they think Changsun Sheng's character is also trustworthy.

Therefore, Datou Khan was very polite to Changsun Sheng.

Even though the two countries were at war, he did not treat Changsun Sheng as an assassin to guard against him.

This time, Datou Khan and Dulan Khan joined forces to gather a large army to attack Zhou, and to teach the ungrateful emperor of Zhou a lesson and to grab some spoils back.

Datou Khan led his army to attack Yunzhong and surrounded Heng'an. The reinforcements of Zhou State arrived soon. When the two armies confronted each other, Changsun Sheng came to negotiate as an envoy of Zhou State, hoping that both sides would turn war into jade.

This is impossible for Datou Khan. Now that the arrow is on the string, he cannot withdraw his troops. Even if Zhou really marrys the princess to Dulan Khan, the two countries will have to fight sooner or later.

A wolf king who cannot bring prey to the wolves will definitely not live long. The interests of various ministries in the Turkic country determine that only continuous wars and plunders can feed these hungry wolves of all sizes.

The rich Central Plains is the best hunting ground for wolves. How could the wolf king let go of this flock of sheep that could not be seen for one or two beautiful ewes?

In addition, Datou Khan wanted something. Now that Zhou State sent envoys to negotiate, he didn't mind raising a price: "Gei King, where is Rangan? Where did you get him?"

Changsun Sheng replied: "Rangan has gone to Jinyang and is probably waiting for the emperor to summon him."

"Why, your Emperor Yuwen hasn't come to Yunzhong? Is he still in Jinyang? He wants to support Rangan as a puppet?"

Changsun Sheng didn't mind letting Datou Khan know the emperor's whereabouts, because the emperor had told him when he came, and he still replied calmly: "Your Majesty is in Jinyang, and as for how to treat Rangan, it is not something I can guess."

"Hmph, a cowardly and incompetent puppet, which tribe can subdue it!"

Speaking of this, Datou Khan became excited: "Du Lan Khan, I wish I could use Yandian's head as a wine glass to drink. Your Emperor Yuwen wants to have a peace talk? Yes, hand over Yandian before talking about it!"

Asina Rangan, the Tuli Khan, was defeated by the already alliance of Dulan Khan and Datou Khan, and could only flee into the Zhou territory with the few remaining troops to seek asylum.

Changsun Sheng didn't plan to promise anything in this matter: "Khan, I can't do this, I think Your Majesty will not agree."

"Then you'd better go back and report. This battle will definitely be fought. I don't want to make things difficult for you."

Datou Khan stood up to see the guests. Seeing that the other party was tough, Changsun Sheng stood up and saluted, and then said, "Khan, let's think about it again. After all, our army is in full swing."
