Chapter 322: Yang Guang marries a daughter
、、、、、、、、、、
"Ahh Marshal Yu shouldn't be this kind of person. Yang Luoqi said in disbelief: "Before attacking Goryeo and envoying the Turks, he was still very loyal to the Great Sui!" ”
"Hey, Luo Qi, people can pretend, and many rebels and thieves all behaved like loyal ministers before the rebellion. Aren't Yang Xuangan, Yuanshou, and Dugu Luo the same? Yang Guang sighed.
After Yang Luoqi heard this, a pair of beautiful eyes kept blinking, as if she was thinking about something.
After a while, she said solemnly: "Father, my daughter thinks that if Yu Ming does not attack the Turkic army immediately, in addition to the reason you said, there is another possibility. That is, he has concerns in his heart, and he is worried that after you are rescued, you will send troops to attack Liaodong, so he does not dare to lose his strength. ”
Yang Guang listened, and after thinking for a while, Fang nodded and said, "The situation you said is naturally possible. But now I can't convince him that I won't target him anymore. The official position that should be sealed has also been sealed. Now that he is the king of Zhou, it is impossible for me to give him the throne! ”
Speaking of this, Yang Guang was already panting, he sat there, staring at the bronze mirror on the table, in a trance, as if he didn't know himself in the mirror.
Hearing his father's words, Yang Luoqi also sighed lightly.
At this time, Yang Guang made her a little strange, he no longer had the domineering and conceit of the past, and only a fear in the depths of his eyes and his attachment to the throne.
Seeing his father's current appearance, Yang Luoqi also felt a faint pain in his heart. After so many years, she knows very well what her father wants, and she also knows what her father has been scolding and going on an expedition to Goryeo all these years. He wanted to lay a foundation for the Great Sui Dynasty and make him a more outstanding emperor than the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, and his name will be passed down through the ages.
However, an emperor with such a grand goal is now besieged in Yanmen, and the grim reality makes Yang Guang begin to deny his ability.
"Your Majesty, in the past, when Han Gaozu and the overlord of Chu fought for the world, they also lost more than they won, Liu Bang lost dozens of battles in a row, but Xiang Yu has never been defeated. But Han Gaozu never gave up, and he was defeated and fought repeatedly, so he would have achieved hegemony, and the invincible overlord of Chu had to kill himself in the end. Later, when Han Gaozu was at war with the Xiongnu, he was also besieged by 400,000 Xiongnu troops in Baishan Mountain for seven days and seven nights, and the situation was similar to ours...... But in the end, weren't the Xiongnu also hunted down by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty on the grassland and forced to submit to the Han Dynasty? Father, this siege is just a setback, and it is nothing. Yang Luoqi hurriedly comforted.
After Yang Guang heard this, he sighed and said, "Alas...... When Gaozu was besieged by Baideng, he finally adopted a policy of peace and proximity to let the Xiongnu retreat......"
Speaking of this, he was silent, secretly wondering how he could tell his daughter about this, wouldn't it make her think wildly.
So, Yang Guang hurriedly defended categorically: "Luo Qi, don't get me wrong! I will never let you go to the marriage and marry the Turks. The tragic situation of Princess Yicheng has already made me shudder. I will never let my daughter grow old as Princess Yicheng! ”
When Yang Luoqi heard this, she blushed and said, "If her daughter and relatives can make the Turks retreat, her daughter is also willing to sacrifice herself!" ”
"It's impossible, not to mention that I won't agree. Even if I agreed, according to the temperament of the Turks, they would never stop. Now that they have Yanmen Pass at their fingertips, how can they give up halfway? Won't they be able to ask for more if they have captured me? Yang Guang shook his head again and again.
Yang Luoqi's eyes lit up at this time, and she thought of a way, maybe sacrificing herself could relieve the siege of Yanmen.
At this moment, the two suddenly heard shouts of killing outside the city, and in the quiet night, this sudden sound made the faces of the father and daughter change suddenly.
At this time, Pei Renji came to report with a sweat on his head: "Your Majesty, the Turks have increased their troops again, and they have launched an attack again. Please Your Majesty have a good rest in the palace, the last general and others are going all out to defend the city! ”
"General Pei let it go! Who you need and what materials you need, just transfer them, even if they are transferred to the city wall! Yang Guangguang said loudly. He seems to have regained some of the domineering spirit he had when he destroyed Chen.
……
At this time, Tuli had already led ten thousand Turkic troops to the city, and in front of him there was a long square table, and at the end of the table was a bundle of black oxen and goats. On either side of the table are two rows of earthen bowls filled with wine.
Tuli gripped the scimitar with both hands and slashed it off, severing the necks of the black bull and the goat, causing a trickle of blood to drip into the wine bowl placed on the table.
Immediately, more than one of the Turkic pro-army generals who had already stood in their positions stepped forward and put sheep blood wine to their mouths.
Tuli shouted loudly: "May the immortal heavens protect my Turkic Khanate, and tonight we will fight Yanmen City and capture Emperor Sui." ”
"The original Changsheng Tianbao estimated my Turkic Khanate, and tonight I fought a battle to capture Yanmen City and capture Emperor Sui." The voices of the tens of thousands of Turks around him repeated at the same time.
At this time, Shibi Khan came to the scene and said in a deep voice: "Brothers of various tribes, what are we doing when we go south and sleep in the open air? It is because in our hometown grassland, the wife and children at home are still starving, waiting for us to return with food and belongings. We've been out for a long time, and we can't afford to wait any longer. Just tonight, our most courageous Turkic soldiers will conquer those weak Han people in the Central Plains in one fell swoop! ”
"Sons, take Yanmen Pass and capture Yang Guang alive, our wives and children will not be starving. The offspring of the steppe wolf will be able to become the overlord of the Central Plains. For the future of our grandchildren. Now I order: the whole army to attack the city! ”
After saying that, Shibi Khan slammed the wine bowl to the ground, then raised the golden wolf banner in his hand and waved it in the direction of Yanmen Pass.
Under the light, I saw that the surroundings were densely packed, all of which were already ready to go. All the Turkic wolf riders have become infantry at this time, all with bows and arrows wound, scimitars unsheathed, and murderous!
Led by the Turks, the Turks rushed forward with ladders as they marched, shouting, "Immortal Heaven Guarantee!" ”
This cry shook the ground, so that the defenders felt shocked in their hearts, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
At this moment, the Turkic soldiers had rushed to the side of the moat, which had dried up, and improvised wooden bridges were erected over the moat. The Turkic infantry, carrying the ladders behind, did not stop at all, stepped on the wooden bridge that had just been paved, rushed through the moat, and then set up one ladder after another on the city wall......
"The Turkic thieves are coming, kill!" With Pei Xingyan's roar, there was a sudden whistling sound in the darkness.
The crossbows that had been prepared at the head of the city shot angry arrows, and behind them there were many more long and short bows fired at the same time. Large expanses of arrows swirled in the air like dark clouds and then poured down towards the ground.
These arrows were so powerful that they had already rushed to the bottom of the city, and the Turkic soldiers who were climbing were immediately shot into hedgehogs.
In the face of the dense charge, desperate Turks, the defenders of the city also resisted with the fiercest bows and arrows. They almost wanted to shoot all the arrows in their stockpile. For a time, the arrows over the entire city wall covered the sky and the sun.
In this terrible storm of arrows, the Turks, who lacked armor and shields, suffered heavy casualties. Many soldiers didn't even have time to notice the screams, so they fell down the city with ladders and were smashed in an instant.
Screams and moans came one after another, arrows rained like locusts, and the sharp sound of wind piercing the sky filled the entire city wall, and the originally high morale of the Turks was suddenly stagnant!
Under the city walls, the screams and cries of the Turkic soldiers rang out, and many cavalry from various parts of the steppe pushed and squeezed into a ball, trampling on each other. Some people lay down to dodge, but were trampled to death by their panicked comrades next to them. One by one, the Turks who climbed the ladder fell, while the soldiers who were wounded by arrows and did not die rolled on the ground, and their long howls were terrible.
Seeing that the battle was so tragic, many of the soldiers of the grassland tribes in the back row immediately became frightened, after all, they came to the Central Plains to rush it. I didn't want to throw my life here.
So some cowards tried to turn around and run away, but they were immediately killed by the soldiers who followed behind. Jieli shouted loudly: "Even if you die, you will die on the city wall for me!" ”
Under the compulsion of the warlords, the Turkic soldiers finally calmed down, and at this moment, all the soldiers finally understood that they could die if they advanced, but as long as they conquered the city, there was still a glimmer of hope to live, but if they retreated, they would definitely die.
Under the threat of death, the helpless Turks and the steppe tribes who were engulfed turned around again, carrying scimitars, holding small round shields, and carrying cloud ladders and rushing towards Yanmen City.
They soon rushed under the city walls with more ladders. The 10,000 Turkic pro-army, which had been following behind and had not yet participated in the attack, also received an order from the Turks and immediately participated in the attack. They are well armed, combat-ready, and fearless to death. With their addition to the warband, the defenders were suddenly a little overwhelmed.
The corpses under the city have long been piled up, and countless Turks have climbed towards the city like crazy. Under the personal command of Shibi Khan and the Turks, the archers of the Turks also began to exert their might. With their numerical superiority, as well as the Turks' natural superiority in archery, they had already begun to suppress the Sui archers at the head of the city.
After losing the archers' suppression of the Turkic siege soldiers, the Turks swarmed up like ants, and one cloud ladder after another erected the city walls. The Turks who were not afraid of death poured into the city one after another, and the Sui army defending the city launched a short encounter, because this time it was the most elite Turkic army, and even the Turks also went to the city wall, and the Sui army began to have a defeat.
