The capital of Qi State, Chang'an.

The news of Yuan Tiangang's surrender soon reached the palace.

After Shen Tiannan heard the news, he was a little stunned.

He thought that everyone could betray him, but Yuan Tiangang would never be.

He was too good to Yuan Tiangang, how could he betray himself?

But now Jingzhou City is really in the hands of the Tang army, and the Tang army is marching towards Tongguan.

"Damn, damn it......" Shen Tiannan scolded angrily, and the ministers were all trembling with fear when they saw him like this.

However, after Shen Tiannan slowly recovered, someone still stood up.

"Holy Lord, it is imperative that we should send troops to Tongguan as soon as possible, and we can't let the Tang army break through Tongguan, otherwise they will have to march to Chang'an City."

"Yes, the Holy Lord should send troops quickly."

“…………”

Seeing that the Tang army was coming, these officials of Qi were very afraid, so they all hoped to stop the Tang army outside Tongguan, even if they were stealing peace in a corner of Chang'an, they didn't want the Tang army to come over.

Shen Tiannan quickly calmed down, just asked him to send troops, where did he get troops?

The only remaining 60,000 soldiers and horses still have to guard Chang'an City, and now they have to defend Tuyuhun and resist the Tang Dynasty, and there are really not many soldiers and horses left.

But if you don't send troops to Tongguan, maybe Tongguan will not be easy to guard.

After thinking about it for a long time, Shen Tiannan said, "Nie Lingyun." ”

When the words fell, a middle-aged man immediately stood up: "The last general." ”

"I ordered you to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to Tongguan quickly, and you must defend Tongguan, understand?"

"The last general commands."

Nie Lingyun didn't say much else, and after receiving the order, he retreated, and everyone suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Nie Lingyun go.

Without him, others may not be able to hold Tongguan, but Nie Lingyun will definitely be able to hold it, as the number one general of their Qi country, Nie Lingyun can give them a sense of peace of mind.

Tongguan is only two or three days away from Chang'an, and Nie Lingyun quickly arrived at Tongguan with 10,000 soldiers and horses.

The terrain of Tongguan is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Nie Lingyun brought 10,000 soldiers and horses, and Tongguan originally had 10,000, so it added up to 20,000 soldiers and horses.

With 20,000 soldiers and horses, coupled with the terrain of Tongguan, it seems that there is no difficulty in blocking the Tang army.

"When will the Tang Army arrive?" On the city tower, Nie Lingyun looked at a soldier and asked.

"If you go back to the general, you will be able to come to Tongguan at noon tomorrow."

"Okay, after the Tang army comes, come and report quickly."

After speaking, Nie Lingyun left the city tower.

At the same time, the Tang army was marching towards Tongguan.

"Holy Lord, I heard that Shen Tiannan, the son of heaven of Qi State, has sent their first fierce general of Qi State, Nie Lingyun, to Tongguan, this Tongguan, I'm afraid it's not easy to fight."

For Nie Lingyun, Li Yu and others have all heard of him, he used to be Shen Tiannan's person, and he was also the first fierce general of Qi State.

It is indeed not easy for such a person to defend the city and capture it.

"Saint, although this Nie Lingyun is brave, but it is not without weaknesses, this person is too reckless, a little achievement, he will be complacent, if he can lure him out of the city, although this Tongguan is dangerous, it is not that we can't conquer it."

Xu Maogong said, Li Yu heard this, and smiled: "Does Xu Aiqing have a way to break the enemy?" ”

Xu Maogong nodded: "If other people defend the city, this Tongguan is really not easy to capture because of its geographical advantages, but if it is Nie Lingyun, it is easy to say, sometimes, the stronger the person, the easier it is to be negligent." ”

“…………”

Xu Maogong told Li Yu about his plan, and after Li Yu listened, he nodded: "Xu Aiqing has a good plan, a good plan, just use this." ”

---------------------

The afternoon sun is quiet.

Tongguan is very dangerous, and at the same time it is also very strange.

When Li Yu and the others came here and saw it, they couldn't help but be shocked.

Such a Tongguan can be broken by manpower?

Even if they could attack, the casualties would be heavy.

The capital of Qi State, there is such a checkpoint, it is really the place of Chang'an, Xu Maogong and others secretly thought in their hearts, Li Yu at this time, is also secretly shocked, Chang'an City is in another time and space, that is the capital of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, very famous, it can be said that it is the world's first city with a population of more than one million.

The east and west cities are even more prosperous.

Of course, there are no Qi countries today, but Chang'an has such a geographical advantage, which is indeed very suitable for being the national capital, and it is much safer than their annexed cities.

Relatively speaking, there is no natural danger around, even if there is, it is not particularly powerful, as long as the enemy breaks through the city, he can basically drive straight into it until the city is down.

Therefore, it is not safe to merge the state city.

When Li Yu saw Tongguan, he suddenly had the idea of moving the capital.

If the Qi State is destroyed, we must find a way to move the capital to Chang'an.

While thinking like this, as soon as Li Yu raised his head, he saw Nie Lingyun on the city tower.

Nie Lingyun is not very old, the whole person looks very burly, he gives people a very calm feeling, not at all like what Xu Maogong said is the kind of person who will not know the world if he has achieved results.

However, some people's personalities can't be seen from the surface, so Li Yu is still ready to do what Xu Maogong said.

On the city tower, Nie Lingyun had also seen Li Yu, but after he saw the Tang army, he didn't feel anything, so to speak, he was very disdainful, but in the face of this enemy who had broken through several cities in their Qi country, he still didn't dare to be careless, so he behaved very calmly.

"You wait for Tang thieves, attack my city, it's really hateful, today I am guarding Tongguan, all of you, don't think about it."

Nie Lingyun shouted loudly, and Li Yu laughed: "That's not necessarily, with your only 20,000 soldiers and horses, how can you withstand me?" ”

Saying that, Li Yu waved his hand and said, "Rush, kill ......"

After the Tang army came, he didn't hesitate, and immediately waved his troops to attack the city, and the swarming Tang army rushed over, and Nie Lingyun on the city tower was also stunned at first, because the Tang army came from a long journey, and it was really strange to attack the city without resting.

But after a few moments, he had already reacted, and then he waved his hand and shouted, "Shoot me." ”

Sharp arrows rained down, flying down from the city tower, many Tang troops were hit by arrows, and the siege was difficult, so after lasting for half an hour, the Tang army still did not make any progress, and even some Tang troops actually had cowardice.

Li Yu stood behind, frowning slightly, and after a while, he ordered: "Mingjin withdraws his troops." ”

Ming Jin withdrew his troops, and after Tang Jun heard this voice, he immediately cheered a little and hurriedly retreated, as if it was a very happy thing for them not to attack the city.

Nie Lingyun, who was on the city tower, saw this and suddenly cheered and laughed. "Tang Jun, that's just it."
