The journey of thirty miles is not far away, and it takes less than two quarters of an hour to reach the Taoyuan Valley.

The name of the valley is peach orchard, but there is no peach blossom tree in the mountains, and the one who has a panoramic view is only a green valley and secluded. When Yuan Hui arrived, the killing sound in the valley had completely fallen silent, and the situation was under the control of the Great Zhou army.

Tang Fengyi led this Yulin army, with more than 3,000 soldiers, more than half of whom were stationed outside the valley, guarding the other two passages, and a simple camp fence had been erected. Although the valley road is not dangerous, it does not allow too many people to fight.

Yuan Hui and his entourage drove their horses to the court, but they were greeted by bows and blades.

"Who are you? The general has an order, no one in front is allowed to approach, and violators will be punished as traitors! Get out of here! "There was still a little distance from the valley mouth, and he was stopped by a group of sentry horses, and the leading squad leader was murderous at Yuan Hui.

"Bold! This is the prince of Jiujiang County! Yuan Hui didn't speak, and Wu Jue, who was following him, reprimanded loudly. Not to mention the official position, only to mention the title, but it is enough.

After revealing his identity, the hostility in the eyes of the Yulin Guardian in front of him was much less, but he was still on guard. After a slight delay, he was welcomed into the barracks and received by a lieutenant. As the middle and upper-level officers of this Yulin army, the lieutenants were ordered, and Yuan Hui had the right to control them.

"What about General Tang? What happened to the Khitans? What was the combat like? "Exempt from the captain's courtesy, Yuan Hui cared about the military situation and asked three times in a row.

"The Khitan thieves have already planted their wings and cannot escape, and General Tang is directing the battle in the valley!" There was some excitement between his eyebrows, and the lieutenant replied.

With a slight sigh of relief in his heart, Yuan Hui immediately ordered: "Lead me to see General Tang in front of the battle!" ”

Taoyuan Valley is a depression, the Khitan people are compressed in a narrow space, behind is the Heng and Dingfu soldiers set up the military fence, in front of the tiger eyeing the Yulin army. The sun was high and the sun was shining, dispelling the coldness of the valley.

Around the valley road, there are a large number of corpses lying horizontally and vertically, most of them are human, horse, and Khitan, and most of them have been killed by arrows. Tang Fengyi used the playing style with the least loss, and if he could solve the problem with long-range strikes, he would never fight hard.

The confrontation has ended, the two sides have disengaged, the Great Zhou army is recuperating and recovering, and the Khitans have a feeling of being trapped and waiting to die. But even so, under Tang Fengyi's order, the Great Zhou soldiers did not dare to relax.

At the forefront, Yuan Hui met Tang Fengyi and listened to his report on the military situation. Standing on a high place, looking down at the situation of the Khitan army not far away, Yuan Hui showed a satisfied look on his face, and turned his head to Tang Feng: "The hero of the longitudinal feather forest, thwart the enemy's invasion of the enemy, and cause him to be in distress, General Tang is really a good general!" ”

"Du Du praises!" In the face of Yuan Hui's praise, Tang Fengyi just smiled lightly, his humble expression was full of confidence, and he replied: "If there is no plan of the governor, how can these Khitans kill themselves, and where does our army have the opportunity to annihilate it, the governor should be the first to take the lead!" ”

Hearing this, he couldn't help but glance at Tang Fengyi, this person was from a humble background, and he was personally picked up by Emperor Wu Cao. If you really do something, your ability is really good.

Yuan Langjun sighed a little in his heart at the moment, the empress didn't mention other aspects, but in terms of looking at people and employing people, there was always something unique.

"Now that the governor has come to this valley, Lucheng County must have calmed down!" While Yuan Hui was pondering, Tang Fengyi took the initiative to ask.

"The scholars rebelled, and they were a group of rabble, and they couldn't become a climate, so they would be calmed down!" Yuan Hui waved his hand and said, the matter of Lucheng is indeed insignificant to him.

"The magnanimity of the governor is heartbreaking!"

Yuan Hui didn't take Tang Fengyi's flattery too seriously, and pointed to Gu Zhong and responded: "The Khitan people in front of you are the big trouble." If they are leveled, this Jizhou and even the surrounding states and counties will not be able to make waves! ”

"The military situation is like this, how to solve the enemy in the valley, the general has ideas. Can't you keep doing this? ”

Tang Fengyi obviously had a draft, and when he met Yuan Hui's gaze, he came directly: "Back to the capital, the combat power of this Khitan army is not low, but since it is trapped, the location is not good. Just give the general a day or two to wear down the morale of the Chevalier soldiers, and then he will be able to surrender without a fight......"

"It's too slow!" Listening to his plan, Yuan Hui directly interrupted him: "We don't have much time to spend here!" ”

"Uh." His expression froze, and Tang Feng showed a little hesitation on his face: "I can't use it in the valley, it is a restriction on the Khitan cavalry, and it is the same for our army." If you carry out a strong attack, I am afraid that the casualties of the sergeants will be too great......"

Noticing Tang Fengyi's face, Yuan Hui raised his eyebrows, and his heart was clear, "too many casualties" was Tang Fengyi's scruples. After all, Yu Linwei is not an ordinary army, this is Wu Cao's "descendant" pro-army, if the loss is too large, even if he makes meritorious contributions, Wu Cao's side is afraid that it will not be easy to explain.

"The rebellion in Lucheng is just the beginning, and the situation in Jizhou is far more serious than you can imagine. General Tang, we can't afford to delay here for too long! Yuan Hui clasped his hands and said in a deep voice.

His expression was slightly condensed, his face showed some hesitation, and after thinking for a while, Tang Feng asked tentatively: "I don't know the governor, what is the strategy for a quick battle?" ”

Looking far away, the situation on the side of the Khitan army could be seen quite clearly in the sun, Yuan Hui raised his hand and touched his chin, and instructed: "Send someone to persuade you to surrender!" ”

"Persuasion?" Tang Fengyi was stunned for a moment: "Governor, the last general sent someone to surrender before, but unfortunately the Khitan generals were too stubborn and determined not to surrender!" ”

"It's okay, let my people, go again!" A confident smile appeared at the corner of Yuan Langjun's mouth: "This time, there will be a harvest." ”

With suspicion in his eyes, Tang Fengyi did not object again. Instead, he pondered for a while, raised his head and asked, "No matter what, these Khitans are about to be destroyed." I don't know what the governor plans to do with them? ”

"Looking at what General Tang means, it seems that you have an idea?"

"Dudu, the Khitans are extremely stubborn, and they wantonly drive and plunder in the territory of my Great Zhou, poisoning one side. According to the meaning of the last general, it should be destroyed as much as possible to relieve the hatred of the army and the people, and to build a feather forest. If he really surrenders......" Tang Fengyi said coldly.

Hearing his words, Yuan Hui turned his head to look at Tang Fengyi, his eyes were a little surprised, his face twitched a few times, and said, "General Tang, your murderous intent is a little heavy!" ”

After that, he didn't say anything more about this matter, turned to look at the messenger who was running towards the Khitans with the flag, his eyes slowly deepened, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Governor, let's go back to the Chinese army first and wait for news!" Tang Fengyi also changed the topic knowingly and suggested.

......

The Khitans in the valley maintained a rudimentary defensive formation, with a mixed mix of people and horses, and there was chaos. In the previous confrontation, nearly a thousand horsemen were killed and wounded, and the rest of the people were demoralized, and their combat strength was six or seven out of ten.

In the end, He Axiao, the commander of the army, died in the previous fierce battle. A crossbow arrow pierced the throat and was killed instantly.

In the center of the camp, taking advantage of the truce, the deputy general Luo Wuquan gathered several leaders to discuss. It's okay to let these Khitan rough men fight, and it's too difficult for them to use their brains to come up with ideas. A cadre stared at each other, where to think of any way to get out.

Luo Wuquan is a Khitan handsome, he is still a little brainy on weekdays, but in the face of a predicament at the moment, he is also sitting on wax. Looking at the "ignorant" demeanor of the people in front of him, he couldn't help but speak foul language, scolded a few words fiercely, and vented.

"General, the envoy of the Great Zhou Army has arrived...... until a Khitan soldier stepped forward to break the awkward atmosphere.

"It's not going to be here to persuade you to surrender again, is it?" One muttered.

Luo Wu looked around and found that the faces of the leaders present were more or less strange, and he couldn't help but sink his face and ordered: "Bring him over!" ”
