With the siege of Youzhou City. A large number of troops and logistical personnel of the Tang State quickly gathered on the outskirts of Youzhou, and in two days, they reached more than 100,000 people. The temporary camp on the outskirts of Yanjing in Youzhou stretches for more than ten miles. Mighty.

Youzhou stayed behind Yelufeng and was shocked when he heard the news. Hurriedly gathered cronies to discuss countermeasures. At that time, the entire area around Yanjing was full of troops under Duan Mingyu's command. Except for Qi County. Yanjing City has completely become a turtle in an urn. Many battles throughout history have a characteristic. One side was initially overwhelmed. Siege the city. After the last defeat, it was a thousand miles away. Not only was all the land that had just been conquered taken back. And their own territory will be built into it because of this. Think Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi defeated the Sorghum River. It's because it's strong in the early stage. Ignore the area around Youzhou City. At the end, I was wrapped in dumplings. Duan Mingyu has an advantage. That is, not long after the land of Yan was occupied by the Khitan State. Yandi Han'er still has the mood of missing his homeland. And Duan Mingyu is not ready to attack Youzhou City directly. Instead, cut off the periphery first. Completely isolate Yanjing. Then the battle is much easier to fight.

It's time for breakfast. The craftsmen are holding large bowls of porridge and vegetables. Squatting around the tent. Listen to the head of the craftsman opening his head there to set up the dragon gate array. Zhang Touer is a fat man. The military masters who are in charge of the poor call him Fat Zhang. Fat man Zhang is inherently very talkative. Stimulated by this nationally watched battle. The chatter is even more vigorous.

He spat and said, "If you want to talk about this Khitan Emperor Yelu Abaoji. With an army of 3,000 tribes, he integrated the eight Khitan tribes. Wailian Xi Guo. The attack first occupied Yunzhou. Immediately after that, the guards of Zunhua and Miyun moved the city to annex ......"

Duan Mingyu, who was taking a walk, happened to pass by here. Hear here. Thought. Three cities. Only one was downed. There is only one city that fights to the end. One of the two commands also surrendered on their own initiative. Although there is no Yelu Abao machine for a long time at the border. For the sake of prestige and grandeur. Since the two generations of Tang Xizong's father and son ascended the throne, the people have not had a good life. All kinds of unpopular people. I'm afraid it's also an important reason. Otherwise. At this time, the Khitan still did not have the slightest possibility of success. If you only think about your future. How can those generals surrender without a fight? Don't dare to fight. It's not enough to escape? I'm afraid they also have a sense of depression in their hearts."

The fat man said: "Immediately after. The Khitan sent troops to attack Juyong Pass. The defenders were defeated. There are more than 10,000 soldiers and generals from all walks of life. There are 200,000 troops in one place. Zhu Wen dedicated Youzhou again. Zhuozhou Prefecture. The climate of the Khitan is completely complete."

"Fat Zhang. What nonsense are you talking about here? Grow the ambition of others. Destroy your own prestige. Grandma's. Do you want to eat military sticks?"

A small flag patrolling the camp led a few soldiers over. glanced at everyone. He said loudly: "Don't look at the arrogance of the Khitan for a while. The emperor has worshiped General Duan of Zhao as the commander. 300,000 troops. As soon as the army arrived. It was restored to Yizhou. Zhuozhou. A mere barbarian. The rabble. It will fall apart. Eat enough to do things. Don't talk nonsense here."

When the craftsmen heard this, they scattered the birds and beasts. Duan Mingyu also quietly walked away.

The Khitan is in the camp of the capital. Yelu Abaoji was looking at a sand table piled up in a simple way. Jerod Light. Xiao Kang and other generals were all around. Yelu Abaoji looked at it carefully for a long time. sighed softly: "Duan Mingyu is worthy of being the number one general in the Tang Dynasty. This deployment is really stormy. Invulnerable."

Xiao Kang leaned over slightly and said, "Duan Mingyu moved outside Youzhou City. Led the main force to be stationed on both sides of the Gaoliang River in the south of the city. There is also a general Xu Jing led troops to station in the river. Wang Yanzhang camped in Yizhou, and Shang Rang led 10,000 pioneers to look at Qi County. Such a deployment. The canine teeth are interlaced and bite into each other. Advance can also be attacked, retreated or defended. Echo each other."

Yelu Abaoji bowed his head and said, "Yes. If I lose the war. King Duan Mingyu of Zhao will advance like an arrow. Straight into my heart. Completely crush me with a strong force. If I can win. He can then return to the nearest Yizhou Mansion. With the strength of the city to hold on to the help. This little fox. It's hard to deal with."

Yerod said puzzledly: "Dad. If you talk about the ability to defend the city. I, Khitan, no one can come out of the right of the Tang army. He's so good at it. Why don't you just stay in Yizhou City? With the ability of this Tang army to defend the city. I'm afraid we'll have ten times as many soldiers. I can't help him."

Yelu Abaoji smiled slightly. said: "He was ordered to conquer me, a barbarian rebel. What's going on with the turtle shrinking in Yizhou City. Duan Mingyu defeated us in the battle of Yanmen Pass. But after all, it was a field war. You haven't fought with me. This involves a strategy between the two countries. Now this deployment. He's testing my skills, too."

Xiao Kang pondered for a moment. "I wonder what Your Majesty and the generals think about this situation."

Yelu Deguang frowned and said: "The army of the Southern Dynasty is claimed to be 300,000. But my son killed and wounded 100,000 people in Zhenzhou. It is estimated to be in the early 200,000s. Now there are 130,000 people gathered in Youzhou. And our army now has 300,000 men and horses. It doesn't hurt to fight with it."

Xiao Kang nodded and said, "What Your Majesty said is very true. In the opinion of the lowly position. We should take Youzhou as the axis. Constant dispatch of troops to confront the attrition. Duan Mingyu came with his life. You can't always squat in the city of Yizhou. He's going to fight Youzhou. Beware of our reinforcements. You can't watch us run away from the desert. We'll have to lead him by the nose. Pull out his flaws. That's when it's good to ......."

He just said this. I heard a noise outside. Someone outside the tent shouted: "Your Majesty. Liu Yilong, the Han general, heard that the army of the Southern Dynasty had arrived at the city of Youzhou. Cowardice and fear of death. led more than 100 people to escape from the barracks. We've got it back. Your Majesty, please."

Yelu Abaoji listened. His face changed suddenly. Xiao Kang said: "Let's take a look."

Yelu Abaoji's expression was extremely cold. He said sharply: "Don't look at it. Kill them all."

More than 100 people. Xiao Kang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this. But when he saw Yelu Abaoji's face clearly. I couldn't help but nod. He said in a deep voice: "I understand my humble duties."

On the school grounds. More than 100 soldiers knelt on the ground. Tie your hands behind your back. There is a steel knife pressed against his neck. On the periphery are the officers and men of the three armies who were ordered to supervise the beheading. Iron Armor Winter Suit. Stand in solemnity. The red tassels of the spear head fluttered in the night breeze. Steel knives were reflected by the bonfire, constantly flashing with a cold light as red as blood. Thousands of people on campus. It was silent.

A big black flag hunts in the wind. Xiao Kang, who is dressed all over, stands under it. The body is as tall as a pine. The resolute facial contours were like knives under the blazing torches: "The military order is like a mountain. Presumably every brother. Self-beating put on this dress. Pick up your knives and guns from the day you go. That's what you should have heard.

Military discipline is not strict. An army is a plate of loose sand. The military is sluggish. then the battle will be defeated. As a warrior. When there is no enemy in battle. Let him be armed. Strong enemies are like forests. Only forward. Never back down. Retreat from battle. That is, to turn one's back on oneself and to one's robe. Like such scum in the army. What should I do?"
