Chapter 488: The Old Capital of Dawan
The next day, firewood was piled up around the decaying hall. Some oil was sprinkled on it, adding a bit of power to the fire.
"Seven Princesses!" Balta carried a torch and came to Degunaba's side.
"Give it to me!" Degunaba answered and took the torch. Balta had the heart to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to speak.
"Seventh Sister!" , Degureba snuggled in Li Chengye's arms and said with sadness on his face. Degunaba gave him a reassuring look and threw the torch into the pyre. Just as I heard a bang, the fire burst into flames.
Then the fire spread, and the entire palace was quickly engulfed in flames.
"Father Khan! Woo woo woo ยท ", Degureba cried loudly. Li Chengye hugged her body tightly in distress, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.
The bright light of the fire flickered, and Degunaba's expression became more and more cold and resolute.
At the same time, the Ferghana basin in the middle reaches of the Syr Darya River. The former capital of the Great Wan Kingdom, Xiqi City, is ushering in a tragic siege battle. The defending side of the city is the powerful country of the Western Regions - Da Liao!
Of course, that was once!
Now the Great Liao even the capital of Balasagon has been occupied by the barbarians, and it is like destroying the country. Therefore, the Daliao soldiers guarding here have become a lone army.
The only way left for them to retreat was to retreat to the snowy mountains in the cold to the west or surrender to the Khorezm. The former died nine times a life, and the latter survived by stealing a life. If it weren't for the general Tayang Valley, who had been guarding Bahanna (Dawan) for a long time, the entire land of Bahanna would have fallen into the hands of the Khorezm people.
"General! The grain and grass in the city were burned by the enemy! Ha Mi'er hurriedly climbed the city wall and said loudly.
Since the return of the envoy to Khorasan, Tayang Valley has trusted him even more. First, Ha Mibu'er's brother Ba Rahei stayed in front of Li Chengji on duty, and he was an important liaison of Da Liao in Khorasan. Second, the Great Liao State has declined greatly, and many generals have other ideas. The only people who Tayang Valley can trust are a few people such as Ha Mi Bu'er.
When he heard this, he was immediately shocked and said, "What?!" โใ Immediately noticed that there were many people around him, and immediately lowered his voice and said, "Go!" Come with me to the General's Mansion! โใ
This is Tayang Valley's mansion in Pakhana!
It is also the city of Xijia, which was the capital of the Great Wan Kingdom thousands of years ago. Later, although there was a change of dynasties, the land of Bakhana also changed hands many times. However, the outstanding geographical advantages of the city of Xilu have made it the central city of the land of Pakhana for thousands of years.
Until now, it has maintained its special status as the largest city in the land of Bahanna.
Therefore, Tayang Valley, which has been guarding southern Liaoning for many years, placed the general here!
Yarahay also knows that this place is inconvenient to speak! He hurriedly followed the footsteps of Tayang Valley and hurried back to the General's Mansion.
Because of the impact of the war! It is almost impossible to see people on the streets. Only a group of Liao soldiers in armor kept rushing to the city wall, but it was to block the attack of Khorezm's army.
So Tayang Valley they rode on the streets and ran extremely fast.
When they came to the gate of the General's Mansion, two stone lions stood tall, and they were very imposing at a glance. The four characters of the 'Great General's Mansion' of the dragon flying and phoenix dance also reveal a strong and powerful stroke.
This is a plaque from Emperor Dezong! I heard that when Emperor Dezong moved west, he was a well-known scholar. He was admitted to the Jinshi and had a bachelor's degree. And the martial arts are good, and the military achievements are impressive. It can be said that he is a civil and military all-rounder who is admired by thousands of people.
With Tayang Valley's qualifications, it is natural that he is not qualified to be given a name by Emperor Dezong. Therefore, this is the current saint Yelu Zhilugu in order to show his favor to Tayang Valley, and deliberately found out the imperial gift from the ink treasure left by Dezong.
Although it is not as powerful as the emperor's grace to give the name in person, with this ink treasure of Dezong, you can still be proud!
After all, there is no one in the middle of the court, but no one can get Emperor Dezong's Mobao.
Without stopping, the next person opened the door of the house. Tayang Gu quickly came to the flower hall, and before he sat down, he hurriedly said, "Say it!" How is grain and grass burned? โใ In order to avoid burning grain and grass, he has already arranged it in order to be foolproof.
But who knows, it still hasn't been able to escape the secret hand of Khorezm.
Therefore, after a little thought, he couldn't help but be angry. When he spoke, he also had a murderous aura.
Hearing this, Ha Mi Bu'er said with some caution: "The grain and herbs have been arranged according to the general's orders. But how do you know that thieves are cunning! He put poison in a well. The officers and men of our army were subordinated, and they all had unbearable abdominal pain. The thief took the opportunity to set fire to the house near the granary!
and gathered nearly 100 people, all of whom slaughtered to the grain depot. All of them were not afraid of death and set fire to the grain depot. โใ
"These Khwarazm thieves!" , Tayang Gu scolded and said angrily: "The generals who are guarding the grain depot this time will all beat the thirty army battles!" and cut down all the people who made fires and made food. These meticulous works must have been mixed in under their cover. โใ
Although these words continued, dozens or hundreds of heads would fall to the ground. But the burning of the grain and grass warehouse is infuriating. And after this, it is even more difficult for the Liao army to protect Xiyu City.
He answered, and quickly went down to give the order.
At this time, a beautiful woman dressed in silk and still charming walked in.
"Sir!" The woman carried a food box, put it in front of the table and said, "I made some food with my own hands, so let's eat a little!" โใ
Tayang Gu looked at the food in the food box, waved his hand and said, "Don't eat it!" The war is in full swing, so I won't stay longer. โใ After that, you have to go out.
The woman understood the difficulties of Tayang Valley, but she still couldn't help but be concerned: "Master! You haven't closed your eyes for two days and two nights. Even if it's iron, it can't stand such sleeplessness! โใ
Tayang Gu listened, and couldn't help but feel a wave of fatigue in his heart. He stopped his steps and said with a worried face: "Madam! Now the rivers are declining, and the state affairs are becoming more and more difficult. This Xiqi city is also afraid that it will fall into the hands of the Khorezm thieves in the near future. You said that this stall, where can the husband sleep peacefully! โใ
Hearing this, the middle-aged beautiful woman couldn't help but show a little despair on her face and said, "Master! Isn't there still Si'er? I heard that he was the commander of a battalion in Khorasan and would definitely come to our rescue. โใ Kombas was one of the first brothers to take refuge in Lee Seungji! Despite his young age, he has already made a name for himself in the junior camp.
Her son is so promising, and the middle-aged beauty is very happy. If it weren't for Tayang Valley's constant refusal, she would have wanted to go to Khorasan a long time ago.
"It's useless! The grain and grass were burned, and the city of Xiqi could not be held for a few days. And when my husband heard about it, there was chaos in the river. If Khorasan wanted to go north, he had to pacify the chaos in the river. This delay will not be able to relieve the siege of Xiji. โใ
