Chapter 531: Scratching the Tongue

After coming to this world for six or seven years, Li Xin has learned a lot! The most important point is that because I have seen too much and understood too much, the whole person has become much calmer than when I first arrived. If he had followed his previous temper, he was afraid that after coming here, he would have already begun to attack the city. Where would they sit here calmly and send someone to persuade them to surrender slowly?

Truth be told, what he hates the most is siege, and it's the last thing he wants to do. Unless it's a thermal weapon of later generations, even if it's just a mortar! He will not hesitate to go up to attack the city, where will he delay here.

The casualties of the siege were too great for him to do unless it was necessary. But why not use the siege to do something else that can also achieve the goal of destroying the enemy army.

Don't care about the gains and losses of one city and one place in front of you, but look at the overall situation, you will find that not taking the city for the time being is much more effective than directly attacking the city.

In today's situation, there is no news from Liao Chuan and Deng Qiang. It is very likely that because they are not in place yet, if they start a war on their side at this time, it will naturally be disadvantageous.

In addition, Guangning County itself only surrounded one county seat, Xialuo County, and the rest of Pan County and Zhuolu County did not move. As for Kamiya-gun, which is a little further south, it's even less so.

If Pingxi heard the news, he would definitely rush to the rescue. At the same time, since Shanggu County is still in their hands now, they will definitely be extremely relieved when they pass through the military capital, and they will not have any worries.

In this way, it will be very beneficial for Li Xin and their actions. Surround the point to send reinforcements, this is what Li Xin likes to do. After all, the cost is much higher than that of a siege, but the gain will be very large.

"Pass the order, and the army will begin to attack the city tomorrow! In short, the bigger the momentum, the better! After Li finished the letter, he instructed him.

"Yes, my subordinates will give orders!" Tu Qi hurriedly replied.

Since Li Xin led the army to surround the county seat of Xialuo, the other surrounding counties, especially the county of Shanggu County, immediately sealed off the city and put it on guard. On the one hand, they are constantly sending people to the south to ask for help, and on the other hand, they are constantly inquiring about the situation in Xialuo County.

Shanggu Taishou Shan Nan, this person originally held the position of Yanmen Taishou in history, and was killed when Zhang Ping became self-reliant.

However, because Zhang Ping's forces have long been wiped out by the Huashan Army, and even Zhang Ping himself is now hanging an idle post in Chang'an City, so the history about him is naturally different.

In Fuyang City, the single man is in a hurry. Every time he heard the news from the north, his heart was in his hands!

"Fortunately, Xia Luo County has not yet fallen, and the Tang army has not yet gone south! We're safer here! In the morning, after hearing the news of the spy report, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"But my lord, the Tang army has changed the situation of the past and has already begun to attack the city on a large scale. In my opinion, Xia Luo County may not be able to support it for too long! Let's prepare early! Seeing this, the spy hurriedly said.

"It seems that Li Xin still can't help it! Whether it's Xialuo County or our Fuyang City, it's all the same. If the Tang Army really attacked in a big way, we would not be able to resist it by ourselves. I'll fix a letter immediately, and you send it to General Pingbei, and ask General Pingbei to come to your aid quickly! Hearing this, Shan Nan thought for a while and said to him.

"Yes, I'll go right away!"

After the man had written the official document, the spy immediately mounted his horse and headed south. As long as you go all the way south after passing the military capital, you should be able to send the letter to Pingxi soon.

The name of the military capital is because the canyon through which this road passes belongs to the mountainous area of the military capital of the Taihang Yumai, and the terrain is extremely dangerous. It has two passes in the north and south, the southern pass is called Nankou, and the northern pass is called Juyong Pass.

The name of Juyongguan originated in the Qin Dynasty, and it is said that when Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall, a large number of prisoners, soldiers and forcibly recruited people were relocated here, taking the meaning of "migrating to Yongfu". In the Han Dynasty, it was called Juyong Pass, and in the Three Kingdoms era, it was called Xiguan!

Between these two passes is a relatively narrow valley, and the distance between the two is nearly fifty miles long. No matter which dynasty or generation, it was an important pass to protect the North China Plain, especially the later Beijing area.

And from Juyong Pass to the northwest, it is the famous Badaling. The Badaling Great Wall seen in later generations is actually the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty.

But few people know that in fact, during the Warring States period, the Great Wall had already begun to be built here in Badaling. However, at that time, it was built by Yan Guo.

By the time of the Han Dynasty, two passes had been set up on the road of the military capital, which was different from that of later generations. Because the North Entrance Juyong Pass, which is also known as the West Pass, was actually built on the Badaling at that time, and it was not the Juyong Pass established by the Ming Dynasty later.

And the so-called Nankou is actually called Jundu Pass. These two passes, one north and the other south, lock the main road from Quang Ninh and Shanggu to Yanjun Jicheng and other places.

This also leads to the fact that no matter which force controls the Central Plains in history, it will inevitably deploy heavy troops to defend in these two places, and Yan is naturally no exception.

The men sent by Shan Nan galloped all the way south, gradually entering the mountainous area, and a few miles ahead was to reach the Juyong Pass. The thought that after passing from here, he would soon be able to complete the task assigned by Taishou, and the spy couldn't help but relax a lot.

However, just when he was happy, he never thought that an arrow suddenly flew from nowhere, and shot his horse to the ground.

"Not good, there are enemies!" The spy was also a clever man, and he jumped down the moment the war horse fell, and he was horrified in his heart.

And then it was inconvenient to run in the direction of Juyongguan, after all, there were people on their own side, and it should be much safer. However, the other two people who accompanied him did not have such good luck and were shot to death.

But before he could run a few steps, he saw another arrow suddenly fly out from the dense forest on the right, and this arrow was extremely powerful, directly penetrating his ~ leg. The spy threw himself to the ground, unable to move.

At this time, he saw that in the woods not far away, soldiers wearing dark armor came out, and quietly surrounded him.

"It's the Tang Army! How did they end up here? Since he was sent to Xialuo County to inquire about the situation before, he was very familiar with Tang Jun's outfit, and he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

Just as he was thinking about these things, he saw the tall general at the head, who signaled to the soldiers beside him, and then he was directly put up and walked into the dense forest just now.

It wasn't until miles into the dense forest that they stopped.

"Are you going to die or live?" The general of the Tang Army looked at him and said lightly.

"The general spares his life, naturally he wants to live!" The spy hurriedly endured the pain and kept kowtowing.

"Excellent! The general's name is Deng Qiang, and he is a general under the command of King Tang! Looking at your outfit, you should be a soldier of the Yan Army, right? Tell you where you have come and where you have been, and what you have done! If you dare to say half a false word, I will throw you behind and feed the beast alive! Deng Qiang nodded and said leisurely.

The soldiers and horses that appeared were the Deng Qiang subordinates who had been separated after Dangcheng County before. Since the separation, he has traveled all the way over the mountains and mountains, from the east of Dangcheng County to Shanggu County.

If it weren't for Li Xin's explanation to him and let him take the military capital, I'm afraid he would have taken Zhuolu County first when he passed by.

By now, he had been hiding in the dense forest more than ten miles away from Juyong Pass. Each of them asked people to inquire about the movements in the north, and he had already found that the correspondence between Fuyang County and the south was very close, so he waited here today.

Finally, this unlucky guy who was sent out by a single man to deliver a letter bumped into him.

"Yes, yes, yes, I don't dare to lie at all!" The spy was taken aback, especially when he saw Deng Qiang's serious but inexplicable smile, he only felt that it was too hideous, and hurriedly said.

"Let's go!" Deng Qiang gestured.

So, without the slightest hesitation, the spy poured beans into a bamboo tube, and gave everything he wanted to do. At the end, he looked at Deng Qiang with blank eyes, wondering if he was satisfied or not, and if he could let himself go.

After Deng Qiang heard it, he couldn't help but ponder. This is a big deal, but for him to come, if he can find a fighter from it, it will naturally be the best thing.

"From now on, you will follow us! Heal your injuries first! As for your letter, I'll send it for you! After a while, Deng Qiang said to him.

"Huh?" When the spy heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, quite puzzled.

Deng Qiang didn't care about him anymore, and after ordering someone to take him down to take care of him, he began to arrange the next things.

"A few of you took these things and went to see the generals of the Yan army. Remember, if you are smart, you must make the situation in the north more serious, and it is best to let the Yan army speed up and go north. He called for some scouts and whispered to them.

"Don't worry, general, people already understand what you mean!"

"Plus, there's a confidential matter to be told to you! Don't forget! Nodding, Deng Qiang continued to explain.

Not long after, these scouts changed into the uniforms of the Yan soldiers, and then took the official documents and seals they had collected from the spy and walked in the direction of the man just now.

And Deng Qiang continued to lead his soldiers and horses, secretly hiding in this mountain forest, quietly waiting for the time to come.
