9. Persuade to surrender

Yi Mu Xun's sudden defection made Qi Zang cover his eyes bloodshot and trembling all over, "These two people are the most untrustworthy!" ”

However, after the Nanzhao army broke through the strongholds and cities south of Shanzhou, the front and rear of Taideng City were seriously attacked by the enemy, and now it was time to make a decision.

"Da Lun, without further ado, there are still seven or eight thousand elites who can fight near Taideng, and a certain one is willing to protect Da Lu to break through to the west to Kunming City, and there can be the response of the defense envoy of Xigong City to Dongchai." Ma Dingde didn't care about the slap at the moment, he understood the situation of the two sides very thoroughly in his heart: the Tang Army, the Eastern Barbarians, and the anti-water Nanzhao, the combined total military strength was close to 100,000, and tens of thousands of Western Tibetan reinforcements on the periphery were blocked in turn.

Just when the beggar was still hesitating, the defense envoy of the city of Shugong, who had been warned by Soma, had already led 5,000 soldiers and horses, waded through the Shugong River, but ran to Dengtai City first.

The cheers of the soldiers inside and outside the city shook the heavens and the earth, and the morale was once invigorated.

In the palace fort, Non Dongchai told Beggar Zang Sha: "This time, not only the reinforcements from Shugong, Saigon and Lacheng are coming, but soon Qinghai and Sanssouci will each have 10,000 elites to enter here, and the aid will be discussed for you!" ”

So he said to Ma Dingde: "There are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Shanzhou, and the total number of their dependents is 40,000 or 50,000. If this theory is abandoned at this moment, not only will the results of many years of operation be destroyed, but also the Tang family and Nanzhao will be connected, and the situation east of Yunling will deteriorate to the point that it cannot be cleaned up. Even if I die, I will never pour the fortunes of the country. ”

Seeing that the beggar was determined to hold on, Ma Dingde bowed his head and was silent.

Then Ma Dingde got the order: plus the reinforcements of Dongchai, with you as the guide, a total of 7,000 people, immediately attack Liuqiang Town, and open up the connection between Taideng City and Saigon and Lacheng reinforcements!

Remember that once you enter Liuqiang Town, you will immediately set up three piles of flames on the beacon and erect my family's frog flag, echoing the reinforcements of Saigon and Lacheng inside and outside, and crushing the Tang army and its Eastern Barbarian servants besieging there.

At the same time, he did not give up his diplomatic efforts against Nanzhao, he asked the two cage officials to go south, and when they encountered the army of Yi Mu Xun, they questioned and condemned it, hoping that Yi Mu Xun could turn back from the precipice.

"Immediately attack the old Baosai City (Liuqiang Town), the three main forces of Dingwu, Yining, and Fengyi, must go all out, and must ensure that this city is captured in the shortest possible time." Gao Yue, who moved the three yamen of the Marshal's Mansion forward to Wangxing City on the south bank of the Dadu River, threw the pen to the desk, and then said to Li Xian and Zhou Ziping, "Tell the two Lin and Fengpa ghost masters of the Eastern Barbarians that they may be attacked from both sides immediately, and they must rely on Zhucheng to hold on. ”

"It's time for the fifth battalion of your artifact army to be dispatched." Wei Gao asked on the side.

Gao Yue said that this is of course, Guo Zaizhen led the three battalions of the guns to aid Dongmanzhucheng, and Su Pu led the second battalion of siege artillery and a total of 30 battalions of infantry soldiers of the Dingwu Army.

Zhang Jingze, the soldier and horse envoy of the Yining Army, led 30 battalions of the Yining Army to the right flank position of Zhucheng, ready to be put into the battle of reinforcements against Saigon and Lacheng at any time;

Mi Yuan, Fuyu Huai, and Ming Huaiyi led all the cavalry of Dingwu and Yining, and the Xichuan generals Wu Dao and Fuzhong Yi led the cavalry of each battalion of the Fengyi Army, as a reserve mobile force, and slightly deployed in the middle of the north valley of Dengtai City and the military city of Kuoqing, waiting for the order to attack.

On the 29th, in the Dongchuan camp of the Tang Army opposite Hulang Mountain in Taideng City, many soldiers holding crossbows and bows, all stood on the wall, stretched their necks, and looked at the foothills of the valley on the northwest side in amazement: thousands of Xifan soldiers came out of Taideng City, along several mountain roads, erected various battle flags, and formed a huge and long formation, like a dragon, like a torrent, and the sound of horns, copper drums, and copper cymbals resounded throughout the entire Beigu area of more than ten miles, and the goal was to reinforce Liuqiang Town in the north.

In addition to receiving orders from Wei Gao and Gao Yue in advance to "not go out to camp and fight", the west side of the Dongchuan army was full of steep ravines and undulating cliffs, and a winding rope water was sandwiched in the middle until he entered the city - this geographical situation allowed him to see the actions of the Xifan army in the city of Taideng, but he could not strike at it.

In one day, Tan Dongchai and Ma Dingde led 7,000 soldiers and successfully entered Liuqiang Town.

Standing at the head of the city, on Dongchai, the reinforcement camps of Saigon and Lacheng are on the high platform on the opposite bank of the Saigon River in the west of the city, and the "bamboo city" built by the Dongban is blocked in the middle.

This bamboo city is in the shape of a slender crescent, on the west side, there is also a side to the east, there is a water trench around it dug on the periphery, and the river water of the Saigon River is introduced, there are 6,000 eastern barbarian soldiers who hold it inside, and there is a grain road to connect with the Tang family Kuoqing, Wangxing Military City.

"Fight quickly, tomorrow will be ignited, we will attack from this city, Sita Yang Zhu of Lacheng will attack from the opposite bank at the same time, be sure to crush this bamboo city." On Dongchai, it was decided immediately.

Ma Dingde looked at Zhucheng silently, and then looked at the north side of Liuqiang Town-the fish-scale-shaped siege camp built by the ten battalions of the Dingwu Army in advance here, and then said to Dongchai: "The city defense envoy only cares about fighting with peace of mind, and a certain is dispatched at the head of the city with a nest car and a command flag. ”

That night, under the city wall of Liuqiang Town, a Xifan cage official dressed as a Xifan cage official quietly came to Ma Dingde's camp and reported his identity, "I am the cage official Lang Xixi of the former Qianglang, came to see Ma Dingde, and brought a secret letter from the Marquis of Tang Jiaqi." ”

In the camp, Ma Dingde held the hilt of his sword and looked at the waves, "You didn't die in the battle of Papaya Ridge, and you still rebelled against the enemy, and you still have the face to come to see me?" ”

It turned out that Lang Xixi was the cage official of Qianglang in the place, and Ma Dingde was the cage official of Shaye, and the two had always known each other.

"I'm here to thank my eldest brother for taking care of my wife and children." Lang Xi said with a straight face, and then offered the gift.

Ma Dingde used the tip of his sword to pick up the brocade handkerchief covered on the plate, which was full of golden horseshoe gold.

"Wei Lianshuai and Gao Qihou are very appreciative of the eldest brother, and think that the eldest brother must help to take the stage city!" Although Lang Xixi is shameless, he is also shameless to get straight to the point, "After I entered the Tang Dynasty, Qi Hou treated me with blue eyes, not only asked the court to crown me as a six-rank military official, but also gave me a mansion, a forest garden, and an industry; The eldest brother's talent is ten times that of mine, why don't you turn your back on the bitter cold and Xifan and throw yourself into the bright Tang land, and the whole clan will have countless glory and wealth. ”

"Shut up, how could I do such a brazen deed? Take your gold, go back to Tang Jun, for the sake of our old friendship, I won't kill you today, if he comes back to you one day, I will not only kill you, but also kill all your wives. ”

"Then since each is its master, eldest brother might as well let me pick up my wife from here, eldest brother, if you want to share the same fate with more than 100 clansmen and the dying Liu Qiang Town and Dengtai City, I will not be reluctant, I only have respect in my heart."

"You!" Ma Dingde was angry.
