Chapter 228: Persuasion from the city
Luo Yi smiled: "This is not enough, we can't be idle here, I suggest that the troops will come to the city tomorrow, by me, and Wang Yan, together in front of the pass to persuade him to surrender, with emotion, although there will be no decisive result, but this idea will remain in his heart, and when the time is ripe, he will definitely agree."

Cheng Yanjin frowned and said: "There is one more thing, Li Daozong and Zheng Tianyong only travel fifty miles a day, if they continue like this, they will not be able to reach the Jiepai Pass for another ten days, I am worried... Even if we recover the Jiepai Pass, from the Jiepai Pass to the Sleepy Yang City, there are more than a dozen checkpoints, one pass after another, and when it comes, our soldiers are almost consumed, and when that time comes, we will have to face the elite army of Xiliang, and we want to solve the siege of Sleepy Yang City, can we solve it? ā
Speaking of Li Daozong and Zheng Tianyong, who can be angry, saying that they came as the Chinese army and backup, and in just half a month, they are 500 miles behind. I didn't plan to go to Xiliang at all.
Without waiting for everyone to speak, Cheng Yanjin said again: "What worries me the most is that Li Daozong's intentions in this move, we might as well guess that if the emperor encounters an accident in Xiliang, and we lose a lot of troops, will Li Daozong lead an army of 100,000 to return to Chang'an?" It must be known that Chang'an and the surrounding forces have been emptied by two expeditions to Xiliang, and if he returns suddenly, Chang'an will be in danger. ā
Everyone was shocked.
Luo Tong hurriedly said: "Uncle, I think Li Daozong shouldn't be like this, right?" ā
"Alas, you don't know what Li Daozong is like."
Cheng Yanjin got up, walked a few steps in the tent, and said: "When we attacked the Boliao Kingdom, he played a trick, taking advantage of the emperor to lead the army to the Boliao Kingdom, and the war was stalemate and could not be withdrawn, he secretly communicated with the generals in the army and secretly returned to Chang'an. ā
"The current situation is more dangerous than that time, if he wants to go back to Chang'an, no one can stop him; What I'm worried about is that once the situation changes, he really turns around and goes to Chang'an, so what are our 50,000 people going to Xiliang to save the emperor? Or go to Chang'an to save the prince? ā
Hiss...
Everyone gasped, no one thought about it so much, they didn't expect that in the peaceful state of affairs, there was such a murderous motive hidden.
Luo Yi also reacted at this time, and immediately glanced at Cheng Bingjin a few times, and he was able to think about things so clearly, but he really lived up to the name of the country.
Thinking about it carefully, there is really such a possibility, Li Daozong has a heavy army, and he can't delay, so he can't be guarded against.
"Gee, if that's the case, it's going to be troublesome."
Luo Daodao: "Uncle, why didn't you say it earlier." ā
"Did I say it would work? Regardless of whether he said it or not, he had to go to Xiliang to save the emperor, and only after saving the emperor did Li Daozong dare not come nonsense. ā
Cheng Yanjin said: "What I'm worried about is that we haven't had time to rescue the emperor, and he has already started to do it." Before I left Beijing, I told the prince, but I don't know if he listened or not, which is really worrying. ā
Speaking of which, there is no solution.
Cheng Yanjin has been thinking about this since he came out of Chang'an, and he is thinking about it in vain now, not to mention that everyone has reacted, how can he have a good plan.
After a while, everyone's attention shifted to the current attack on the boundary card level.
.........
Early the next morning, Luo Tong led a large army under the city of Borderpai Pass, and set up a position at a distance of kilometers from the city wall of Jiepaiguan. Among the 50,000 troops, 20,000 are iron cavalry and 30,000 are infantry, all of whom are the best of the best and the best of a hundred battles; The iron cavalry was in the center, and the infantry were on either side.
Although there are many soldiers, it is absolutely impossible to forcibly attack the city, and they do not even bring siege equipment, so they do not have the conditions for attacking the city.
Of course, the soldiers came to the city not to attack the city, but to persuade the king to surrender.
While Luo Tong commanded the army to line up, Wang Buchao was also actively preparing for the battle, and visited the city tower in person to watch Luo Tong's vanguard army.
At noon, a carriage was driven by Luo Yi and slowly drove towards the Jiepai Guancheng Tower, followed by Luo Tong and Zhao Wenyong, each riding a war horse, walking next to the carriage.
When the group walked to the city, Luo Yi put down the reins in his hand, stood up from the carriage, looked at the white-bearded general on the city tower, Luo Yi shouted loudly: "Son-in-law to meet your father-in-law, please go out of the city for a while." ā
When Wang Buchao heard this, he turned around and went downstairs, then ordered someone to open the city gate, and also rode out on a tall horse.
At this time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, Wang Yan touched his stomach with one hand, grabbed the door and window of the car with the other, and walked out slowly. ā
"It's fine."
Wang Yan's belly looks bigger than yesterday, just like a pregnant woman who is more than four months old, in fact, Wang Yan is not like this, in order to better persuade Wang Buchao, Luo Yi asked Wang Yan to put a few clothes on his stomach, which looks more pregnant.
helped Wang Yan get out of the carriage, and the two stood in place and waited.
As the suspension bridge was lowered, Wang Buchao finally walked out, and after dismounting, he hurriedly stepped forward and took Wang Yan's hand, and asked for warmth for a while.
Don't look at him as an iron-blooded general, in fact, since Wang Yan left the Jiepai Pass, he has been thinking about it all the time, after all, he is such a daughter.
"Yan'er, how are you?"
"Dad, I'm fine."
Wang Yan touched his stomach and said, "Dad, the child is about to be born in a few months, haven't you always wanted to hold your grandson, and when you are born, you will be able to get what you want." ā
"At that time, we will be happy together as a family, how nice it would be. Daddy, when you move to Chang'an, the house of the Guogong Mansion is bigger, bigger than our palace... ā
Wang Yan said this, of course Wang Buchao could understand, and he wanted to do so, but it was a pity that it was up to others, on the one hand, loyalty, and on the other hand, family affection, just like two mountains, which overwhelmed people.
However, he is still sensible, and between the two, there has already been a decision, since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness are difficult to complete, and it is necessary to give up small righteousness and be seriously ill; Loyal for a lifetime, you must not lose your reputation in your old age.
After Wang Yan finished speaking, Luo Yi also interjected: "Father-in-law, let's come down, go back to Chang'an with us, enjoy the joy of family, why bother to fight against the court?" What accident do you have to have, what should Yan'er do? Will this child still be born? ā
Luo Tong and Zhao Wenyong did not speak, the two rode on horses, responsible for protecting the safety of Luo Yi and Wang Yan; For Wang Buchao, they are a hundred rest assured, even if Wang Buchao wants to win, he will not harm his daughter, the two are worried about those archers in the city, once it is not good for Luo Yi and Wang Yan, it will be a big deal.
"Alas... Go, I can't come down. ā
A few tears unconsciously flowed from the corners of Wang Buchao's eyes.
Tightening Wang Yan's hand, he turned around sharply, ready to return to the boundary card level.
"Old general, aren't you embarrassing us? We are a family, so why fight and kill, who can do it. Luo Tong sighed.
"If you really don't surrender, we won't attack the city, the emperor's life is in danger at any time in Xiliang, although you are a general of Xiliang, but you are also the general of my Tang Dynasty, if the emperor has any three long and two short, it should be all your fault, at that time, you are loyal to the king of Xiliang, but you will be abused by the people of the Tang Dynasty, that is the real stench for ten thousand years."
