Chapter 186: Seventy Thousand Army
"Liu Lang, thank you!"
Just as Liu Huayun was sitting on the chair and pondering, Duan Yaoying appeared behind him at some point, stretched out her smooth jade hand to wrap around his neck, and said softly.
"Yaoying, there is no need for this between you and me."
Knowing that she was referring to the army she had drawn and was about to attack Duan Yan, she smiled faintly and hugged her into her arms with her backhand......
On the morning of four days later, Li Hai and the Yang Jiajun Erlang, who had left at the beginning, entered Huili County in a hurry, and at the same time brought the good news that Xu Liang had taken the Yang Jiajun to a few miles away.
Xu Yunlong was overjoyed when he heard this, and the ugly daughter-in-law next to him finally wanted to see her in-laws, but she pulled her shirt a little crampedly, and her pretty face was full of nervousness.
"Lehi, inform the sons and daughters to assemble, prepare to go to the city to meet Uncle Xu, and immediately leave for Limahe Town."
Now that the Yang family army from Rongcheng has come, Liu Huayun can't stay in Huili County all the time, so he waved his hand and commanded Li Hai.
"Yes, don't obey!"
More than ten days ago, Shi Buhuan led the Dali soldiers to penetrate dozens of miles into the border between the two countries and kill his companions, such a shame made Li Hai hold a sullen stomach in his heart, and when he promised at this moment, his whole body was boiling with fighting spirit.
After this period of cultivation, the more than 60 Yang family soldiers living in the inn were all injured in a serious condition, and after receiving the order, they were all gearing up to fight.
"Brother Liu, I've kept you waiting."
An hour later, on the avenue outside Huili County, after meeting with Xu Liang, he boldly greeted Liu Huayun.
"Alas~~, Uncle Xu, I am now commensurate with Yunlong's junior brother, you can call me my little nephew in the future."
"Daddy, Daddy!"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Yunlong pulled Ya'er and bowed to him in unison.
"You kid, you found me a daughter-in-law so quickly, you are Meiya, the girl is very good, get up quickly......"
Xu Liang was very strict with his son, but he was very gentle with Ya'er, the little daughter-in-law, and the army continued to move forward.
Of course, whether Dali can successfully win the support of the people in this campaign, Duan Yaoying's appeal is the key, and Ya'er also has to serve by her side;
The two women had a lot of inconveniences in the barracks, and Yin Magu became their bodyguards according to Liu Huayun's request.
Huili County is not very far from Limahe Town, and in the evening, 20,000 troops have arrived outside the town.
After Shi Buhuan was injured and fled, the Dali army did not dare to appear again, sixty or seventy miles away on the bank of the Jinsha River, there was a large army in the assembly, these days word of mouth, almost everyone knows.
Therefore, after nearly half a month, the town has returned to the tranquility of the past, Duan Chahu is striking iron, Shui Yunhe, Wu Xinlan and his wife, I don't know when they are operating the renovated inn again.
It's just that the brothers and sisters Qin Wu and Qin Surou, who bought the small courtyard at the beginning, have disappeared, which makes Liu Huayun, who returned to the Yunhe Inn, feel a little regretful.
After all, this brother and sister don't want to calculate themselves all the time, leaving them with a hidden danger like a fish in their throats.
Early in the morning of the second day, "Rest in peace, brothers, for we will wash away this vengeance with the blood of our enemies!" ”
On the hillside outside the town, Liu Huayun, Xu Yunlong, Li Hai and other soldiers bent down to bow deeply to more than 30 sons and daughters who were buried in other places.
Because the people who buried them did not know their names and could not erect a monument to make up the apocryphal inscriptions, Liu Huayun sent hand-picked flowers and was silent for half a column of incense before the army pulled out the camp and left.
"Your Majesty, the 50,000 horses of our army on the front line have arrived in Dayao, but the opponent's three-way army is about to be assembled, and it may be difficult to hold the pass if it goes on like this, General Duan Yaohu asks for reinforcements!"
Just as Yang Jiajun was on his way to the border between the two countries, in the imperial palace of Dali City, hundreds of miles away, Duan Yan was also discussing with the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.
"Damn, didn't you say that Dafeng was at war with the Mongols and the Jurchens? Why did so many soldiers and horses be dispatched so quickly, Ding Aiqing, and Annan's reinforcements? What exactly are they doing? ”
After listening to the report of the minister in charge of troop scheduling, he slapped the jade case in front of him fiercely, and Duan Yan looked at Ding Xun anxiously.
For more than 100 years, the Duan dynasty has been unreservedly subservient to Dafeng, so there is no strong defense of the fortress in the northeast of Dali;
Moreover, due to the relatively short period of time, the opposition forces of the garrison in the southwest have not been completely eliminated, and the transfer of 50,000 soldiers and horses is already the limit of the new dynasty with an unstable foundation, so it is strange that this old thief is not in a hurry!
"Your Majesty, the 80,000 troops promised by Annan are still being dispatched, and if you want to rush to the border, I'm afraid it will take more than half a month at the earliest."
Dafeng's reaction speed to this matter made Ding Xun a little unexpected;
More than ten days ago, they had just sent away Annan's welcoming procession, even if Wu Buji did not doubt the authenticity of Princess Yaoying, this time would be enough for them to return to Hanoi at most.
At the beginning, he thought the same as Duan Yan, Dafeng was worried about internal and external troubles, not to mention that Princess Yaoying traveled thousands of miles to the capital, even if she traveled non-stop by car, it would take more than half a month to arrive;
Even if Emperor Dafeng agreed to send troops despite public opinion, and then transferred people from all over the country, it was impossible to press the border without two or three months, and this time was enough for them to calm down the opposition in the country and unite with Annan to deal with it easily.
But now, once Da Yao in the northwest border fails, the Dafeng army can easily pass Yao'an, pass through Nanhua, and come to Xiangyun City, which is dozens of miles away.
If Xiangyun City is lost again, Dali City will be finished, so when he bowed his head to report, Ding Xun, who was anxious in his heart, was also full of cold sweat in his palms.
"Spread my will, let Duan Yaohu do whatever it takes to defend Dayao and wait for reinforcements from Annan, otherwise let him come to see him!"
Duan Yan slapped the jade case again, and opened his mouth to command......
It was another day of rapid marching, and when it was dark, when Liu Huayun and others arrived on the west bank of the Jinsha River and joined Wang Yiheng, Gao Cheng and two Guangxi garrison scouts also came to the barracks.
"The ...... of the Horse"
"Lord Wang doesn't need to be polite......"
"Brother Gao, thank you for your hard work!"
After some greetings, when he heard that the 20,000 troops who took the Yuan Mou route would arrive at most one day's journey, Liu Huayun smiled and ordered people to prepare a banquet, and several people ate and drank well.
Anyway, the defenders of Dali have always been cowering in the fortress, even if Wang Yiheng's 30,000 troops crossed the Jinsha River and camped on the other side for a few days, they still did not dare to come out.
Yunnan-Guichuan is mostly a place with mountains and rivers and steep terrain, which can be seen from the area where the army camped in uneven hills and valleys.
As the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other side will not be defeated in a hundred battles, in the early morning of the second day, waiting for the gap between the arrival of the Guangxi army;
Liu Huayun took Gao Cheng, Xu Liang, Xu Yunlong, Wang Yiheng and other generals, as well as hundreds of cavalry, and headed towards Dayao fifty miles away.
