Bach came to the top of the tower and looked at the dazzling flags of the Celestial Empire in the dense army of Batu twenty miles away, shining in the scorching sun. Then I didn't know what to say to the lieutenant general next to him, and then quickly left the castle tower.

At that time, King Batu in the palace heard that the army of the Celestial Empire was attacking again, and immediately ordered people to bring Bach to him, wanting to start a battle with the army of the Celestial Empire.

Ignoring Bach's worries, relying on Batu's iron cavalry is an existence that other countries cannot match, so that all the armies in Batu's capital city add up to less than 100,000 iron cavalry against the Celestial Empire.

At that time, in the army of the Celestial Empire, Zhao Xuan was discussing the siege strategy with the generals of the Celestial Empire.

"Batu's army has always been dominated by iron cavalry, most of them are iron cavalry army, although we have an army of 200,000, if we fight against Batu's iron cavalry head-on, we may not be able to easily win this battle here, if we want to win them, we will pay heavy losses ourselves."

Nan Ming stood in front of the discussion table in the tent, looked at the topography map of the capital city of Batu placed on the table, and said.

Batu's iron cavalry is powerful, and the generals who have been fighting against Batu's army for a long time in Yuzhou also understand.

"Either we poison the water near the capital city, so that we can win against Batu without a single soldier, take the first city of Batu, and let the king of Batu surrender." A general said suddenly after Nan Ming's words.

After the general's words fell, Jiuhuang refused directly without thinking about it: "No, poisoning won't work." ”

Everyone looked at Jiuhuang suspiciously, not understanding why Jiuhuang would oppose it when this was a good way.

Jiuhuang glanced at the people in the tent, taking in all the doubts in their eyes.

If poisoning really worked, then she wouldn't have had to flee in such embarrassment when she came to attack the city with an army of 30,000.

"Let's not talk about whether the poison can succeed, let's just say that if we really poison the water source of the capital city, then the people of Batu in the capital city will also suffer because of it."

"Although the people of Batu are not the people of the Celestial Empire, they are also innocent lives, not to mention that the capital city of Batu is only a river in Yuxi, which is close to the capital city, as far as I know, if we poison the Yuxi, even if we succeed in poisoning Batu's army, then what about our own army? Wouldn't they have been poisoned by eating the water from Yuxi? ”

Hearing Jiuhuang's words, everyone turned their heads one after another, discussing Jiuhuang's words.

At this time, Nan Ming suddenly said loudly: "I also agree with the words of the county lord, it is impossible for our army not to eat and drink water, if we really poison Yuxi, then our army will also be poisoned, this is the practice of following the enemy army to the end, I don't agree." ”

In this case, I think the army is still attacking the first city directly. Batu's current army is stationed in the first city, and we only need to block all the four gates of the first city, and then attack the city in parallel from the four gates. ”

After Jiuhuang and Nan Ming's words fell, Zhao Xuan pondered for a moment and raised his head and said to everyone.

Hearing Zhao Xuan's words, Jiuhuang nodded and said: "A good way for the three princes to directly attack the city, Batu is now in our hands, it is said that King Batu is very fond of this little son, when necessary, we can use Batu to make King Batu surrender." ”

When Nan Ming heard the words of the two, he didn't say anything, only to see him looking at the map on the table in a daze.

Zhao Xuan, who noticed Nan Ming's application, suddenly spoke: "General Nan Ming thinks this method is not feasible? ”

Zhao Xuan asked Nan Ming, while also looking at the map stretched out on the table, looking at the point marked in red, which was the location of the capital city of Batu, and there were many small black dots on the terrain map, which were some cities in Batu.

After a long time, Nan Ming withdrew his gaze from the terrain map, then looked at Zhao Xuan, and said, "Although the siege of the three princes is an excellent method!" But if we really scatter our army to attack the city at the four gates of the first city, it means that our army is scattered, and the army of Batu in the city is surrounded by a group, which is not a good thing for us. ”

Zhao Xuan lightly clasped one hand on the table and made a sound of "knock", "knock", "knock", and after hearing the benefits and disadvantages analyzed by Nanming, Zhao Xuan nodded and fell into silence.

"Then what is the feasible way for General Nanming?" Zhao Xuan asked Nan Ming on the side after being silent.

"If we really want to attack the city, the last general thinks that it is better to try the wheel war, and our army of 200,000 can be divided into several batches to carry out rounds of siege of the first city."

Kindness? Zhao Xuan looked at Nan Ming, and Nan Zhong thought about the feasibility of this method.

Subsequently, Zhao Xuan looked at all the generals in the camp, and after some agreement, he finally decided to use Nanming's strategy.

After two days of thorough preparation, the Celestial Empire army finally began to march to the bottom of the tower of the capital city.

One day towards sixteen years, the beginning of July.

The Celestial Empire was led by the third prince Zhao Xuanwen to lead an army of 200,000 to attack the capital city of Batu, and started the only grand battle with Batu's army.

Zhao Xuan is the main general, Nan Ming is the deputy general, and he is accompanied by several deputy generals in the Celestial Empire, and the strategists of the Jiuhuang people are famous for this army, and they have launched comprehensive countermeasures against this war.

Batu, nearly 100,000 Batu iron horsemen were besieged in the capital city by the Celestial Empire's army, unable to carry out their kung fu on horseback that terrified several other countries.

Under the siege of the Celestial Empire's army, King Batu could not escape from the city, and finally had to leave and personally go to the battlefield to lead the Batu army to start a battle against the Celestial Empire.

The Celestial Empire's wheel siege method made Batu's army anxious and angry, watching the Celestial Empire's wave after wave of troops attacking the city under the tower, and the four-meter-high tower of the first city had begun to crack under the continuous siege of the Celestial Empire.

Finally, after three consecutive days of siege, Batu's first city was broken, and the king of Batu had no choice but to lead several of his princes out of the city with Batu's army, which was now less than 50,000, to engage the Celestial Empire army head-on.

After several days of taking turns attacking the city by the Celestial Empire's army, the Batu army was already in a state of exhaustion, even if the Batu Iron Cavalry was the most brave and warlike iron cavalry among the nations, it could not withstand the siege of hundreds of thousands of troops of the Celestial Empire.

The battle only lasted a few hours, and the Batu army was gradually defeated, and Prince Bach led his Batu army to surrender in order to save his own life, and King Batu and Bach's father and son fought each other.

In the end, King Batu died at the hands of Bach, and Bach had only one request for the Celestial Empire, that is, to let his mother, Queen Batu, not have to be assigned to the army of the Celestial Empire as a military prostitute, and he was willing to become a service soldier of the Celestial Empire and a lifelong slave.

Subsequently, Zhao Xuan retrieved Jingzhou's talisman from Bath's hands, and the battle of Batu Jingzhou began from then on.

Zhao Xuan left an army of 50,000 to hold on to Batu, and then returned to Jingzhou of the Celestial Empire with the remaining army.

Zhao Xuan, who had already repaired the book and sent the war report back to Beijing, led the army and Mu Kun Jiuhuang and others back to Shangjing at the end of July in the sixteenth year of the Celestial Dynasty.

At this time, after seeing that Zhao Xuan successfully recovered Jingzhou and took Batu, Nie Bu also followed Zhao Xuan back to Beijing to restore his life.

Nie Bu, who received the order of Empress Nie before leaving the army, launched an assassination of Zhao Xuan again and again on the way back to Beijing.

But in the face of the hundreds of thousands of troops behind Zhao Xuan, Nie Bu also knew that it was extremely impossible for his son to kill Zhao Xuan, and after several attempts, Nie Bu gave up the assassination of Zhao Xuan, and could only think about staying until he returned to Shangjing, and then thought of finding a way with Empress Nie.

On August 10, the 16th year of the Celestial Empire, after nearly 20 days of continuous travel, Zhao Xuan finally led the army back to Shangjing successfully.

In the capital, Zhao Yun, who had already heard the good news, not only succeeded in recovering Jingzhou for Zhao Xuan this time, but also took Batu and included it in the territory of the Celestial Empire.

On the day Zhao Xuan returned to Beijing, he led the civil and military officials of the Celestial Dynasty to the gate of Shangjing City to welcome Zhao Xuan's return.

Above the court, Zhao Yun greatly praised Zhao Xuan's achievements this time, and many officials in the court looked at Zhao Yun and were now satisfied with Zhao Xuan, and in their hearts, among the princes, Zhao Xuan was much more likely to become the prince.

After the courtiers' speculation about the royal prince and Zhao Yun's praise for Zhao Xuan, Zhao Yun said to all the generals who participated in the war this time that there were not a few who rewarded gold and silver, and added officials to the knighthood.

After rewarding everyone, Zhao Yun said to the eunuch beside him: "Xuan Jiuhuang come in!" ”

"Xuanjiuhuang County Lord Audience!"

"Xuanjiuhuang County Lord Audience!"

"Xuanjiuhuang County Lord Audience!"

One sound after another spread from the main hall to the ears of the nine phoenixes waiting outside the hall.

At this time, Jiuhuang had too many apprehensions in her heart, and she knew that she would definitely be punished by Emperor Zhao Yun for entering the army rashly this time.

Exhaled a breath of blue breath slightly, Jiuhuang prayed in her heart that as long as she would not be implicated in the Xu Mansion, all the punishments for her Jiuhuang would also admit it.

Lifting his feet and walking towards the hall, this is the second time that Jiuhuang has come to the main hall of the Heavenly Empire, which is full of majestic and majestic royal momentum.

"The courtiers and nine phoenixes meet the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live!"

Bowing her head and walking into the middle of the hall, Jiuhuang knelt down and saluted the yellow-robed person she could only glimpse on the upper seat.

Zhao Yun looked at the low Jiuhuang and didn't make a sound, and the majesty of the Son of Heaven attacked Jiuhuang's body, making people feel the terrifying momentum.

Xu Yang was in the ranks of ministers, and when he heard the moment Zhao Yunxuan saw Jiuhuang, his heart couldn't help but mention it for Jiuhuang.

Jiuhuang trespassed into the military camp alone as a woman, and also broke into the war, although Xu Yang was a civilian official, he also knew that the crimes committed by Jiuhuang were quite large.

After Jiuhuang entered the hall, Xu Yang raised his head and peeked at Zhao Yun, and when he looked at Zhao Yun's expressionless face, the nausea that the heart Chinese Jiuhuang carried had reached his throat.
