Looking at the two Turkic cavalry wandering outside the battlefield from a distance, Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems that after yesterday's raid, the Turks quickly adjusted their tactics, these two cavalry did not participate in the siege battle, but patrolled around the battlefield, taking care of each other, obviously the Turks did not intend to give themselves a chance at all.

Cheng Yanjin was thinking about how to deal with it in order to reduce the pressure on the officers and soldiers defending the city, so that they could hold out until reinforcements arrived. At this moment, a spy behind him reported that he had found more than a dozen scouts of the imperial reinforcements and invited them back.

Cheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the temporary camp. Since he learned what happened to Du Fuwei and them yesterday, early this morning, Cheng Yanjin sent a large number of scouts out to search everywhere, in order to gather the reinforcements that came later, so as not to be embarrassed when Du Fuwei came but couldn't find himself. In this way, we can also concentrate manpower better and faster, which is conducive to resolving the crisis at Yanmen Pass as soon as possible.

Entering the temporary camp, when he saw the leader of the scout team, Cheng Yanjin was taken aback, "Brother Li, why are you?" How did you end up here? ”

Li Shimin on the other side was also surprised, obviously he didn't expect to meet Cheng Yanjin here, "It turned out to be Brother Cheng, and the younger brother thought that it was a hero who led so many people to come here to rescue the court, but I didn't expect it to be you, brother!" ”

The two sat down, Cheng Yanjin and him said a few polite words, and hurriedly asked about the reinforcements from Li Shimin's court. It must be known that 'saving soldiers is like fighting fire', and after figuring out the number of reinforcements, he can also arrange how to relieve the siege of Yanmen. Unexpectedly, after Li Shimin's detailed explanation, Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

It turned out that Li Shimin had brought gifts to Changbai Mountain, and the reason why he left in a hurry was to rush back to join the army. Thinking that he should be not young anymore, his father wants to train him, and with this experience of joining the army, he can also rely on the power of Li Valve to get him an official and a half position in the future.

It's just that although his father was appointed by the emperor as the ambassador of Hedong comfort, he was the general who led the troops. It's just that Li Yuan was ordered by the imperial court to lead 50,000 soldiers and horses in Hedong to be responsible for exterminating Wang Suba, who rebelled in Shangjun and called himself the King of Mantian.

Since it was a bandit, it was naturally extremely dangerous, and his father was reluctant to let his son suffer with him, so he recommended him to the account of Yun Dingxing, the general of the Tun Guard, who was responsible for guarding Fenyang Palace, through the influence of Li Valve. This time, Li Shimin came to explore the road on the order of Yun Dingxing and found out the hidden dangers for the follow-up soldiers and horses.

And the reason why Yun Dingxing, who was in charge of guarding Fenyang Palace, came to the rescue now was because he had just received the news that Yang Guang was besieged by Yanmen. At the beginning, Yanmen Pass was surrounded by Turkic cavalry, and the messengers of the imperial court asking for help could not leave the city at all.

Later, it was still through the process of biting Jin that time to burn the Turkic camp, and the Turkic cavalry besieging the city at that time returned to help, and the messenger in charge of asking for help had the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos to rush out of the encirclement. The messenger worked non-stop to deliver the emperor's edict to a nearby post station, and then copied several copies and sent them to the nearby counties. The general meaning of the edict is that the emperor was besieged by Turkic thieves at Yanmen Pass, and asked the Quartet to recruit soldiers and horses, and rush to the rescue.

At that time, there were only more than 2,000 people in Yun Dingxing who stayed in Fenyang Palace, and in desperation, he had to go all the way and recruit all the way, and when he arrived here, there were nearly 20,000 people. It's just that because he didn't know the situation of Yanmen Pass, he sent a team of scouts to investigate.

After listening to Li Shimin's explanation of the officers and soldiers who came to help, Cheng Yanjin was extremely disappointed. Counting the men and horses of Yun Dingxing, plus the heroes of the rivers and lakes here, the number is less than 30,000, which is really not worth mentioning compared with the more than 300,000 horses of the Turks. If you rely on this little bit of men and horses to fight hard against the enemy, you will undoubtedly hit the stone with an egg.

Cheng Yanjin expressed his concerns to Li Shimin, and asked him to report back to Nayun Dingxing truthfully to see if the general could come up with some solutions. Now the situation of Yanmen Pass is critical, and the Turks take turns to send troops to attack every day, and the city wall of Yanmen Pass is already crumbling and in danger. If you can't think of a way, I'm afraid that when a large number of reinforcements from the imperial court arrive, you can only collect Yang Guang's body.

Hearing Cheng Yanjin's worries, Li Shimin lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then said to Cheng Yanjin, "Brother, since the reinforcements from the imperial court can't arrive in large numbers now, why don't we find a way to let those Turks retreat?" ”

"Oh? Brother, do you have any good ideas? Cheng Yanjin perked up and hurriedly asked.

"Since we can't push these Turks back for the time being, we have no choice but to use some tricks to deceive them. The army of the whole country raised by the Khan of Shibi dared to besiege our Son of Heaven, and it must be in a hurry, and we have no way to rescue it. What's more, Yanmen is located in the Biansai Desert, which is extremely far away from Guanxi, Guanzhong and even the Central Plains, and the reinforcements from the imperial court will not come soon, so these Turks are so rampant that they surround Yanmen Pass for dozens of days without going!

Now, if we show our military appearance, and the flags and flags are continuous for tens of miles, and the cymbals and drums are corresponding at night, it will be unexpected by the Turks. The Turks will surely think that our rescue troops from all sides have arrived, and they will definitely be in chaos. In fear, they will retreat. Otherwise, if we are outnumbered and try our best to fight a tough battle, I am afraid that we will eventually be overwhelmed! ”

"Alas, although my brother's opinion is a little pertinent, but you are also clear about the current situation, brother, with only such a small number of manpower, the army of the imperial court does not know when it will be able to arrive, even if the army is large, the cymbals and drums will probably have no effect, right?"

"My brother is right, we do have very few people now, and they are either Jianghu figures, or newly recruited soldiers, most of whom have not been baptized by war. However, if the Turks can be made to think that we have not 20,000 soldiers and horses, but 200,000, it will be very different! ”

"Oh? Does that make some sense? It's just that how can we turn more than 20,000 people into 200,000? Could it be that brother, do you know how to sprinkle beans into a soldier? Cheng Yanjin suddenly came to his senses, if Li Shimin can really do this, why can't he solve the siege of Yanmen.

Li Shimin talked eloquently: "Brother, if we divide the more than 20,000 men and horses into dozens of teams and stretch them for 20 miles, each team will wave the flag and shout loudly during the day, and it will stretch endlessly from a distance. When the night came, the cymbals and drums sounded in unison, the noise reached everywhere, and the mountains echoed, and the Turks must have thought that they had been surrounded by the army of our court, and they would dare to stay for a long time! ”

"Alas, brother's idea is not bad, but brother, you don't want to think about it, the Turkic people admit that they are the sons of wolves and wolf grandchildren, and they have been jackals since they were children, where can they be scared away! Don't say that we are cheating on 200,000 people, even if we really come to 200,000 people, the Turks will dare to fight with us, after all, the Turkic army that came this time is more than 300,000 people! ”

"What does that look like my brother?"

Cheng Yanjin stood up and lowered his head and turned back and forth more than a dozen times, thought for a long time, and suddenly raised his head and said to Li Shimin next to him, "Now the situation is dangerous, I'm afraid that it won't be delayed for half a moment, although my brother's idea is not very good, but it can only be 'dead horses as live horse doctors', so I have to give it a try."

More than 20,000 of us can't watch Yanmen Pass being breached by those Turks, we have to do something, whether it is useful or not, we have to do it to know. Brother, hurry back and tell General Yun Dingxing, if he can come up with a better way, then he is better, if not, then try according to your idea, brother, all the horses here are also at your disposal! ”

"Okay, since that's the case, then the little brother will take the first step, please wait for the good news here!"

Seeing Li Shimin walking out excitedly, Cheng Yanjin ordered his subordinates to lead the horses, and Du Fuwei next to him saw that he was going out, so he hurriedly came up, "Brother Cheng, where are you going?" Can you bring your little brother with you? ”

"Lao Tzu is going to meet the Turkic Khan, do you want to go with you?"

Looking at the look on Cheng Yanjin's face that seemed to be smiling, Du Fuwei stuck out his tongue, "If you don't want to take your little brother there, forget it, why bother to say such big words to scare people!" ”

Hearing his words, Cheng Yanjin was not angry, but just laughed and turned his horse's head and galloped towards the camp of the Turks in the distance. Du Fuwei, who was hidden in the mountains and forests, thought that Cheng Yanjin was deliberately scaring him, but when he saw Cheng Yanjin near the Turkic camp, he still turned around, but ran straight over, Du Fuwei was suddenly shocked, and his body was about to run out, but he chased Cheng Yanjin. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, he was stopped by the assistant prince next to him.

Du Fuwei was in a hurry, pushing and pinching Fu Gongyi, "Brother Fu, what are you doing?" Brother Cheng didn't know what was crazy, he actually ran to the Turkic camp alone, I want to chase him back! You let go! ”

"He's already gone, can you catch up? Even if you're chasing after it now, it's just one more ghost, so what's the point? Besides, it's his business to go crazy, what are you going to do, do you want to learn from him if he's crazy? ”

Listening to Fu Gongyi's ruthless words, Du Fuwei was stunned in frustration, "At least, at least, I should also live and die with Brother Cheng!" ”

"What's the use of you dying now? Besides, if you die, who will kill these Turks in the future and avenge them? Hearing this, Du Fuwei was speechless. had no choice but to turn his gaze to Cheng Yanjin in the distance. Just when his face turned pale, Cheng Yanjin had already walked into the Turkic camp alone.

Looking at the Turkic camp in front of him, Cheng Yanjin took a deep breath and stabilized the nervous mood in his heart. A conversation with Li Shimin gave him a whimsical idea, that is, to come to persuade the Turkic khan to withdraw his troops.

Although he had already thought of a statement in his heart, he was not 100% sure that he would be able to convince the Turkic Khan. What's more, it is also dangerous for him to enter the Turkic camp alone, although it has always been the practice of two countries competing with each other and not killing them, but God knows if those Turkic barbarians know this truth.

Therefore, Cheng Yanjin can be said to be taking a risk this time, so when Du Fuwei wanted to follow, Cheng Yanjin did not agree to him. As soon as he entered this Turkic camp alone, if these barbarians knew some etiquette, then as a messenger, he would not have to worry about his life. But if there is an extra retinue around him, he can't keep those barbarians from killing the envoy, but wants to kill the envoy's entourage Liwei, and then he won't be able to cry anymore.

Besides, if these Turks don't know etiquette and have to kill themselves, then it is better to escape by themselves, at least than two people. Although it is said that Du Fuwei's martial arts cultivation is no worse than him, if it is about the depth of internal strength and the durability of the battle, then Du Fuwei is far inferior.

Du Fuwei's martial arts are brilliant in the power of his martial arts, but although he can kill a large number of enemies and those extremely skilled martial arts masters, he is not able to escape from the heavily guarded Turkic camp. Only Cheng Yanjin, a pervert with advanced internal force cultivation, may still have some chances to escape. Therefore, Cheng Yanjin decided to come to the Turkic camp alone.

Although it is said that he was hot-headed for a moment, he ran to the camp of the Turks, but it was impossible not to be nervous. Although he had already been to this camp once, he had sneaked in last time when it was empty, and there was a group of people behind him.

Now that he was alone, standing in front of this Turkic camp, feeling the overwhelming pressure on his face, Cheng Biting Jin's heart suddenly pounded. After taking a few deep breaths, Cheng Yanjin regained his calm mood, and then drove the horses towards the Turkic camp.
