"Sir, have you already gone to write to His Royal Highness King Jin? If not, please tell him what you said today. Sa Kun hurriedly said to He Chong.

He Chong was originally a thousand households of the Jin King's Military Intelligence Department stationed in Tuyuhun Kingdom, and for more than half a year, he has maintained contact with the Military Intelligence Headquarters. Yu Wenhua is his direct superior, and he accepted Yu Wenhua's instructions a month ago, asking him to divide the Tuyuhun high-level and support the power of the pro-Jin king in it. If the opportunity comes, it is best to push Zuoxian King Sakun to the position of Tugu Hun Shan Yu Wang. After receiving the instructions, He Chong found an opportunity to inform Sa Kun of the will of the King of Jin, indicating that the King of Jin was willing to help him become the king of Shan Yu, which was in line with Sa Kun's idea, and he was willing to take over the throne of Tuyu Hun Shan in a peaceful way. Therefore, Sakun didn't want King Jin to be calculated and his strength would be greatly damaged. It's just that he didn't know that in addition to passing the information between the high-ranking officials of the Tuyuhun nobility to the Military Intelligence Department, He Chong also deliberately drew a map of Tuyuhun to the King of Jin in accordance with the will of the King of Jin. It was even indicated on the map that the Jin king had specifically requested an extremely concealed march route, which was a road map for the cavalry to rush to the city.

"Huh! The prince doesn't need to panic, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is resourceful and has already made arrangements for the crown prince Yang Yong, and Bogra's plan will inevitably fail. On the contrary, if Yang Yong did not move in the army, the methods of King Jin would not be able to be used. We don't need to do anything more, just wait and see. He Chong smiled and comforted. The current King Sakun Xian is good at everything, but he is still a little uncomposed.

"When the gentleman goes back to the book, please ask the gentleman to explain the attitude of the king again, whether the king is on the throne after the end of the war is a small matter, but first subsidize the winter grain of our country. There is food in our country, and this king will naturally be able to establish prestige. Also, His Royal Highness the King of Jin needs to promise not to kill the people of our clan in vain, please keep this in mind! Sa Kun once again emphasized his attitude towards He Chong, of course, the conditions he gave were also limited, and it was impossible to throw away all the rights of Tuyuhun.

"Rest assured, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is dedicated to the world with benevolence and righteousness, and the people who govern in Hedong live and work in peace and contentment, and the children are not bullied. is not a person who is easy to kill, this time he led the troops to go out, originally to calm the dispute between the two countries and prepare for the seizure of the throne, which is exactly the same as the purpose of the prince. But if you can't give Murong Shan a slam blow, it won't be reasonable to make him retreat. He Chong also said openly and honestly to his friend. It's not so much using him, it's more like cooperating with Sakun this time. Of course, there is a price to be paid for cooperation, as long as all the costs are worth it.

"Alright! Sir, peace always has some pay, and this king also understands this truth. If Mr. has news of King Jin, I hope to inform this king earlier. Sakun said expressionlessly.

"Okay, Lord Wang. If there is nothing else to do, He will leave first, and the prince will rest early. With that, He Chong slowly walked out of the secret room after bowing his hand, and then left through the back door of the palace.

Because of the wind and snow, the offensive and defensive battles in Wuwei City stopped and stopped, and if it was a day of heavy snowfall, the two armies would stop fighting. But when the sky is clear, the Tuyuhun soldiers will abandon their horses and attack the city, and the two sides will fight happily, and no one will let them. This slightly bizarre mode of war wears both sides of the opposing team. The common denominator between the two sides is that the losses of personnel are not very large, but the food in the army is decreasing day by day.

On this day, when it snowed heavily, the whole army of Tuyuhun closed the gate of the village, but a team of cavalry was released from a distance to watch the gate of Wuwei City, guarding against the Wuwei soldiers and horses that might suddenly kill. But this seems completely impossible, because in the past two months, no matter how provocative the offensive and defensive confrontation has been, it has never seen Wuwei soldiers and horses out of the city once.

In the big tent with the fire burning, the anxious Tuyuhun led the army and the general of the army, King Kadir County, fidgeting and walking back and forth. On the marching table was a handwritten letter from Murong Shan Yu that had been sent from the capital city in the morning. The letter not only did not mention the food supply that he urgently needed, but instead ordered him to stop the siege and temporarily cease fighting. This made Kadir's eyes widen angrily, if the food in the army is not replenished, there is no need for a truce, and the whole army can be returned in just a few days, otherwise, they will all starve to death in this ice and snow.

"Report to the king of the county, the spies have come to report and say----" One of the guards said intermittently as he lifted the curtain into the tent. He knew that the county king was angry now, and he was afraid that the news he brought would anger the county king even more, so he didn't dare to continue.

"Say anything, tell me quickly." Kadir yelled angrily.

"King Yujun, the Sui army at the head of Wuwei City is pouring water on the city wall while our army is not attacking, and now the city wall is full of skating, and it will be even more difficult for my soldiers to enter the city." The personal guard mustered up the courage to finish the situation, and then hurriedly turned around and went out without raising his head after bowing.

Originally, he was planning to take advantage of the snow to stop and order the whole army to come to the ultimate siege battle to capture Wuwei City in one fell swoop. After hearing the news, Kadil was so angry that he almost fainted, this Wuwei City made him never so humiliated, under the command of the hateful Sui general Yu Zhongwen, this Wuwei City could not be attacked, and the soldiers died in the siege of the city Nearly 8,000 people. Now I wanted to make a desperate bet, and the whole army attacked before the food ran out, and when I did the last battle, Yu Zhongwen actually watered all the city walls and froze them, and now even the siege ladder was slippery, how could I attack the city! Thinking of this, the angry Kadir drew his saber and screamed, cutting off a large horn of the marching case.

"Hahahaha! The general's four walls are all watered and now all frozen surfaces, see how those Tuyuhun dog cubs attack the city. A deputy general of Yu Zhongwen said loudly beside him, Yu Zhongwen was inspecting the effect of watering the wall with the soldiers at this time, and saw that all the soldiers on the city wall were smiling happily, and kept slapping the battlements of the city wall that had frozen into a thick layer of ice, and he couldn't help but show a smile on his face. It's really not easy, the city wall attack and defense battle in the past few days, almost all the reserve materials have been exhausted, and now the materials on the city wall have all been replaced with bricks and pillars from the people's homes in the city, fortunately, the people here and the city guards have the same hatred and don't care about the temporary damage to their houses. Fortunately, last night an old man in the city offered a plan to water the ice, and it seems that this plan is even better than the materials used to defend the city, and it is better than the bow and arrow. If you see the ladder on the head of the city, you only need to push it to the side, and the ladder will fall to one side, and the enemy on the ladder will fall to death, and even the bow and arrow will be saved. Even if the enemy climbs the wall, it will be extremely difficult to stand firm, and eventually they will fall.

"How many days can I have food and grass in my city now?" Yu Zhongwen doesn't have to worry about the city being unable to hold it now, and he is starting to worry about the problem of food for the defenders, which is not the most important issue to think about before yesterday.

"Report to the general, the grain in the city can still support January, and the subsequent grain and grass are in extremely poor condition due to the weather, and it is extremely difficult to transport grain from Pingliang and other places." The deputy general whispered in Zhongwen's ear.

"These 30 days are enough, and I would have expected that the rations in the account of the barbarian king of Kadir would be less than five days' provisions. It was even more difficult for him to transport grain there, not to mention the imminent arrival of the crown prince and the army of the king of Jin. Hum! I'm almost worry-free in Wuwei City! Yu Zhongwen didn't dare to say such arrogant words yesterday, but now the situation is completely different.

"Send an order to go down, closely monitor the movement of the Tuyuhun army outside the city, and if it withdraws, our cavalry will go out of the city to pursue." Yu Zhongwen sharply ordered the lieutenant general, and he had already seen the dawn of victory in his eyes. What a glorious feat it would have been to defeat the enemy before the Prince's reinforcements arrived. It's just that at this time, Yu Zhongwen forgot one point, that is, although Tuyuhun is short of food and grass, it is impossible to get Kadir to take the initiative to withdraw from the army. Because now the Tuyuhun siege army has been converted into infantry, a large number of war horses can be slaughtered for food, which is enough for this army to maintain the offensive for at least a month.

"General, General Xiping Xiong Kuohai has a letter delivered." A small colonel hurriedly climbed the city tower from the city and held the letter in his hand to Yu Zhongwen.

"It turned out to be a letter from King Jin Chitose." Yu Zhongwen opened the letter and just looked up at the letter and knew that it was a letter sent by Yang Guang, the king of Jin, so he continued to look down, but his face gradually lost his smile, and became melancholy, and finally slapped the letter in his hand into the arms of the deputy general, his face was even more angry, and the hot breath exhaled from his mouth made his beard tremble.

The deputy general hurriedly opened the letter to read, and it turned out that in the letter, Yang Guang, the king of Jin, ordered the defenders of Wuwei City to guard the city gate and not attack, and to keep the Tuyuhun army under the city as much as possible, so as to cooperate with the Jin army to realize the strategic intention. The few sentences do not make it clear what the so-called "strategic intentions" of the reinforcements are. After struggling to support for several months, exhausting Wuwei's materials, money and food, and losing countless soldiers, he couldn't take the victory that was about to come, and sat back and watched others come to pick the victory, how could Yu Zhongwen not be angry and glare. After reading the letter, the adjutant generals were also angry, but they could not disobey the order, and the generals could only be angry and speechless.

"Sending people to Zhongping County and other surrounding cities to urge food, I would have liked to see how King Chitose of Jin used his means to see what his strategic intentions were?" After that, Yu Zhongwen hurriedly led the generals to the city.

Another day of heavy snow has not stopped, and the Tuyuhun army of the king of Kadir can only stay in the military tent and stare dryly. However, to Kadir's satisfaction, part of the grain and grass that had been accumulated on the long grain route was finally transported, which temporarily alleviated the predicament of the food shortage of nearly 150,000 horses under his command. If it was time to kill the horses, Kadir would not have to die of distress. However, the current situation of strategic confrontation cannot be changed in the short term. Why is the damn Wuwei City so hard to fight? Kadir kept asking this question in his tent.

"General, someone has come from Fuya City, and now I am waiting outside the tent." An off-the-books guard reported in the account.

"Oh? Let him come in and talk. King Kadir was thinking hard about the siege of the city, and when he heard that someone had come from Tooth City, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"His Royal Highness the King of the County has always been good, and the lower official has given you a salute." A middle-aged scribe stepped into the tent from outside the tent and bowed his hand.

"Huh! It turned out to be Mr. Bogra, the national teacher! Who should I be? You may be seated. Kadir took a closer look, recognized that the person who had entered the account was the chief adviser of King Shan Yu's side, Bogra, and quickly got up to return the salute and politely beckoned Bogra to sit down and speak. The man in front of him is not something that he, a general who leads troops outside, can offend.

"Lord Bogra is not happy in the gentle village of Yacheng, but suffers in front of the two armies of this king, but why?" Kadir asked softly.

"Your Highness, the lower official came in the snow at the order of the king this time, and it was for the matter of the two armies in front of this formation, and he also brought the king's message to His Highness." Bogra replied.

"Oh? Do you have a siege plan to teach me? Tell me the king's will. Kadir couldn't help but light up after hearing Bogra's words, and hurriedly asked.

"The king's command: General Kadir is holding off the siege and waiting for news from Bogra." Bogra smiled and whispered. But as soon as this sentence came out, it was no less than giving Kadir a slap in the face, which made Kadir breathless for a while.

"What do you mean, my lord! My army has enough food and grass now, as long as the snow stops, we can attack the city with all our might, and Wuwei City will be down soon! Why stop now? Kadir looked puzzled, wondering if he had heard it wrong, and hurriedly asked.

"Your Highness doesn't know, the Wuwei reinforcements have now arrived in Pingliang, and Wuwei City is not far away. The leaders were the brothers Yang Yong, the crown prince of the Sui Dynasty, and Yang Guang, the king of the Jin Dynasty. That's what Xiaguan is here for. I hope that Your Highness will do the king's will. Bogra reminded the leading general with a serious attitude.

"In that case, the king will obey. It's just that Mr. Wang, don't let this king wait for a long time. Kadir also replied helplessly. Although in his eyes this was redundant, he had to do what he was ordered to do, and the boredom in his chest was forced to the bottom of his heart.

That night, Bogra led several people around the city like ghosts on a snowy night, and went straight to Pingliang County behind Wuwei City.

After a long and arduous journey, Yang Er rushed to Pingliang with Yuwen's Chinese army brigade in Chengdu after a short stop in Anding County. After resting in Pingliang for a night, at this time, the rear army brigade, including the 10,000 foot soldiers of Zhang Xutuo's subordinate to Prince Yang Yong, arrived in Anding City, and they were already exhausted. Yang Er did not wait in Pingliang, but urged the army to rush to Jincheng County. At the same time, a letter written at night was sent to the Xiongkuohai Department of Xiping County, and he was asked to immediately set off to lead the pioneer battalion to Wuwei to support Yu Zhongwen's defense.

Yang Er was very worried that his vanguard camp had not yet arrived in Wuwei, and Yu Zhongwen would not be able to stand it and retreat into Guanzhong, in that case, Yang Er's plan would have to be redone. Because once Tuyuhun occupies Wuwei, then they will face many choices, they can carry out a surprise attack in any direction on the Guanzhong Plain, in that case, Yang Er's soldiers and horses will not be enough to resist the incoming enemy at various points. Of course, once the White Horse Yicong in his hands achieves the desired effect from the battle, he will eventually force Tuyuhun to withdraw from Guanzhong, or even withdraw from the occupied Wuwei City, but at that time, the entire Guanzhong region will inevitably be baptized by war.
