Chapter 426: The Verge

Yan Guo circled a temporary camp for the Tang army in Jicheng.

This camp is very large, and the most important thing in Jicheng now is the land boundary.

At the beginning of the war, there were already smart people who realized that the Yan army might not be the opponent of the grassland cavalry, and evacuated Jicheng in advance to other countries, and most of these smart people were rich people, and only they could think of a way to leave Jicheng.

As for the people who don't have much money, they can only stay and wait for death honestly.

Although the current Jicheng is not empty in ten rooms, it is very possible that there are three or four empty in ten rooms.

Guo Zhenying led his army like this and slowly walked through the streets of Jicheng.

" Adjutant. "

" To!"

" Get your eyes out, go to every street, and come back before dawn. Remember not to startle the snake. "

" Understood!"

The so-called eye is commonly known as a spy.

Guo Zhenying wants to understand this city. Although they are allies, on the battlefield, allies are also the easiest group to stab the knife, because their knives are stabbed without warning and without reason.

What's more, this time I came to Jicheng. Guo Zhenying never thought about leaving alive.

After walking four streets, I finally came to the camp.

There is also a Yan Guo squad stationed here.

The number of people is about twenty.

Holding torches, he stood at the gate of the camp in an orderly manner, and after seeing Guo Zhenying and his army, he shouted at the same time: " Welcome Don Jun. Welcome General Guo. "

Guo Zhenying entered the horse with an expressionless face.

The faces of the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom were slightly ugly and a little embarrassed.

But in their eyes, there was a hint of schadenfreude.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty did not squint, so they naturally did not pay attention to these details.

After settling down, Guo Zhenying took out a map of Jicheng and studied it carefully.

The map of Jicheng does not need to be provided by Yan Guo on his own initiative, and the high-level generals of the Tang Dynasty are almost one per person, as I have said before, in the eyes of the Tang Emperor, Yan Guo is a county under the rule of Tang State, and the map of the entire county can be obtained at will, not to mention a small Jicheng in the county.

And it is no exaggeration to say that the map of Jicheng in the hands of the generals of the Tang Army is even more detailed than the map drawn by the Yan State itself.

But this kind of thing is not easy for Yan Guo to know, you have to save some face, right?

Wait until the two sticks of incense are burned, and the ones that were released before " Eyes" It's back.

They reported the situation they had found one by one, Guo Zhenying listened carefully and patiently, and finally remembered it all.

At the end of the report, Guo Zhenying walked out of the tent.

The soldiers who were originally resting all stood up with a brush, and their armor made a rattling sound, the battle is not over, and the soldiers do not remove their armor!

" Sons and daughters of Datang, my brothers, the war has begun, none of us may be able to leave Jicheng alive, and this battle may also become a real defeat for Datang in the past hundred years. But please believe that even if we fail, even if we are slaughtered, we will never be nailed to the pillar of shame, because?? My spirit, our integrity will always be there. "

" The country of Yan, the country on the land we are standing on at the moment, is ready to betray the Tang Dynasty. To be honest, I don't have any evidence to prove it. But?? I just feel like they've betrayed. The city has set a trap just waiting for us to tread. This is a classic invitation to the urn, but I still came, and brought you to death, do you hate me?"

" No!" The soldiers replied loudly.

Guo Zhenying smiled:" It's all good. Brothers. We can't help but come, Datang is already at an extremely important pass, the master and the immortal died, the first emperor died, and the new emperor was eager to make meritorious contributions. The entire Great Wilderness is ready to move on us, and if we retreat at this moment, Wei, Zhao, Chu and other countries will inevitably attack us frantically. So we have to stand up and use our blood to tell those people that Datang is still the same Datang, not something they can bully at will!"

" Kill!kill!kill!"

Guo Zhenying took the helmet handed over by the adjutant. " Get on your horse and charge with me!"

??

Emperor Yan hurriedly returned to his temporary palace.

He didn't dare to return to the Prince's Mansion, once the fight started, it would inevitably become the focus of the Tang Army's attack.

And this so-called temporary palace is also quite simple, it is an extremely ordinary room, no one would have imagined that the noble Prince Yan would be committed to such a place.

" Did they act?> Emperor Yan sat down and took a sip of tea and asked.

The eunuch beside him replied:" Not yet, according to the report from the spies, the Tang army has not come out since he went to the camp. However, there was a battle cry from the direction of the Tang army camp just now, and they should be about to move. "

Yan Huangzi said:" Tang Jun has always been cunning, maybe all this is for us to see. And Guo Zhenying is famous for his love of using his brains in war, and it is difficult to completely lure him into the bait without paying a price. That's it, there is no war that doesn't shed blood. There will be no pie in the sky, so send the vanguard. "

The eunuch nodded, and immediately went out to give orders.

Soon, the prince's mansion, where the former Yan prince was located, was lit up one by one.

The fireworks burst into the air nearly thirty meters in mid-air. No matter where you are located in Jicheng, you can clearly see these fireworks.

" moved, the Don army left the camp. " The eunuch ran in excitedly.

Emperor Yan quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

But soon he got nervous again :" You say, will the Tang army lose this time?"

The eunuch replied:" There is no undefeated army in the world, and the same is true of the Tang army. "

Yan Huangzi said worriedly:" But for hundreds of years, the Tang army seems to have never lost a battle. "

The eunuch said:" Your Highness, rest assured, the Tang army will be defeated this time! The era that belongs to the Tang Dynasty will eventually pass, and the Yan Kingdom will inevitably rise! After that, it will be our era, and the great wilderness will change the sky. "

Yan Huangzi pondered for a long time, and the hesitation and worry on his face finally turned into perseverance:" Yes, you're right, the Yan Kingdom will rise!"

??

West of Jicheng City.

A few soldiers sneaked up to the gates.

After a brief exchange with the soldiers guarding the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city gate left silently, while the soldiers who had just arrived ran to push the winch of the city gate.

They're going to open the door!

The tall and heavy gates rumbled and seemed so clear at night.

Soon, the gates were opened.

The soldiers sped away.

Da Da Da Da??

The sound of horses' hooves came from outside the city, and the earth began to tremble.

Yongyan led his steppe cavalry across the moat bridge. Swam into the city of thistle like a winding python.

The people of the city were also awakened by the sound of horses' hoofs.

The city is broken, this is?

The lights began to turn on one after another, and the brave people even pushed open the windows and doors to observe the situation outside.

But soon they closed the doors and windows again and extinguished the oil lamps.

" The steppe cavalry has come in, and we are going to die. "

This is the most real psychological state of the people of Jicheng at present.

They didn't dare to go out, and they didn't know how to deal with the current situation, so they could only hug each other as a family and wait for the final outcome of the battle.

Of course, there are also a small number of more bloody men who pick up weapons such as hoes and kitchen knives, ready to fight to the death after the enemy rushes into the house.

It's just that what the people didn't expect was that these steppe cavalry didn't carry out a massacre.

Their movements are so neat, not at all like the previous steppe cavalry, free and loose!

Yongyan rode at the front of the group. When I came to a fork in the road, I met a soldier of the Yan Kingdom.

The other party stood in front of Yongyan's horse and quickly explained.

Yongyan bowed slightly, then pulled out the saber hanging from the saddle, raised the tip of the knife with one hand and pointed forward, and said loudly:" The time has come for us to make meritorious contributions, and the invincible Tang Army is right in front of us, waiting for us to harvest! The goddess is watching us from the sky, this battle is the first battle of the counterattack on the Tang Dynasty, and it is of great significance, so we can only win, not lose! The heroes of the grassland, charge with me!"

" Kill!"

The steppe cavalry also drew their sabers one after another, and after Yongyan gave an order, they rushed out at a gallop.

??

Datang Barracks.

" General, here they come. " A sentry rushed to Guo Zhenying and said hurriedly.

Guo Zhenying didn't have any panic, he was still so calm and relaxed," Expected. Brothers, the enemy is at hand, and the time has come to serve the country! We may lose this battle, but you must remember clearly, death must also be worthwhile, and killing one will not lose two blood!"

" Kill!kill!kill!"

Guo Zhenying clamped the horse's belly," Charge!"

??

Yan Kingdom Palace.

Emperor Yan is still enjoying the song and dance performances, and the fighting outside the imperial city is in stark contrast to the singing and dancing in the palace, which is extremely funny and extremely ironic.

The personal eunuch got the news, hurriedly ran to the emperor's side, and muttered a few words in a low voice.

Yan Huang didn't care, his hand was still beating with the music, and said slowly:" Wu'er has been preparing for this battle for a long time, the city is full of traps, plus there are powerful steppe cavalry, even if the Tang army puts on its wings, it can't fly out. I just need to wait here for news of their victory. "

The eunuch was still a little worried:" Your Majesty, the minions still feel that you should transfer. If the Tang army finally attacked the palace in a frenzied manner, relying on those guards outside the palace, I am afraid that the crazy Tang army would not be able to stop. "

" Xiao Dezi, you just think too much. " Emperor Yan shook his head:" I am the lord of the Yan Kingdom, how can I escape from the battle? It is already a mistake not to be able to go into battle and fight with my Yan Guo's sons, if I still evacuate alone at this critical juncture, what will those soldiers who fought bloodily think? I must stay, and I must continue to enjoy the singing and dancing. That's how I want to tell my sons and daughters of Dayan that I'm with them!"
