Yang Guang issued another edict: "Those who have meritorious service in defending the city, those who do not have an official position will be directly awarded the official position of the sixth grade, and the reward will be 100 pieces; Those who already hold official positions increase in rank and reward in turn. ”

This reward is not not rich, whether it is for ordinary soldiers, or generals, are very tempting, in addition to Yang Guang sent a stream of messengers to condolence soldiers, so the soldiers guarding the pass are eager to kill the enemy, day and night against the Turks, although in the face of the attack of 400,000 Turkic troops, the daily casualties are very heavy, but still stubbornly hold on.

After receiving Yang Guang's edict to recruit people from all over the world to rescue Yanmen, all the county guards of the Sui Dynasty competed to summon them to the disaster, and some of them were bent on rescuing the siege of Yanmen.

Some people are powerful officials with ulterior motives and who have long had different aspirations, and they used to secretly enhance their military strength. Now they are competing to use the rescue of Yanmen Pass as an excuse to recruit troops openly.

This was undoubtedly fatal to the rule of the Sui Dynasty.

Yang Guang's three expeditions to Goryeo seriously damaged the economy of yeoman farmers, making the people unable to make a living and displaced, so rebellions broke out in various places; Although Yang Xuangan's rebellion only lasted for two months, it shook the hearts of the high-ranking officials of the gate, and the high-ranking officials and nobles began to rebel against Sui; The siege of Yang Guangyanmen Pass made many people with different intentions justifiably have relatively strong military strength. After the influence of these three major events, the Sui Dynasty at this time was like an old house infested with termites, which could collapse at any time.

On the first day of September, more than 10 days have passed since Yanmen Pass was besieged.

At this time, in a courtyard in Jingchengguan, the baby's cry came, it turned out that Li Yin was teasing his son Xiaohu'er just now, teasing and teasing Xiaohu'er and crying, no matter how he coaxed him, he had to return his son to Cailian.

After Cailian took Xiaohu'er, she hugged it and shook it gently a few times, Xiaohu'er stopped crying and slowly closed her eyes. Cai Lian smiled at Li Yin and said, "Little Hu'er wants to sleep." ”

Li Yin was stunned, no wonder this little guy suddenly burst into tears......

The next day, Li Yin took 8,000 soldiers to leave Jingcheng Pass, went west out of Jingcheng, and then stationed troops in Yu County, in the past, he brought no more than 5,000 people every time he sent troops, but now with Yang Guang's edict, he can blatantly overstep the system and bring more than 3,000 people.

At this time, the troops from all sides have slowly gathered to Yanmen Pass, and the generals of the Right Tun Guard, Yun Dingxing, Shanxi, and Hedong comforted Li Yuan and others to the vicinity of Yanmen, and the total number of troops on all sides is tens of thousands, but no one dares to continue to advance, just bluffing nearby.

After all, there were more than 400,000 ferocious Turks in front of them, and tens of thousands of people rushing over were no different from sending them to death.

Among them, Yun Dingxing's department unfurls the banner during the day, dozens of miles continuously, and at night the golden drum hears each other, to scare the Turks, I heard that this is Li Shimin's strategy, Li Shimin is now a subordinate of Yun Dingxing.

Of course, Li Yin will not fight with the Turks, he eats and sleeps well in the Yuxian County Government every day, but he just asks his subordinates to go to the front line from time to time to shout a few times, which can be regarded as solidarity with Yanmen.

Yang Guang's situation in Yanmen Pass seemed to be very dangerous, but Li Yin was not too worried about it, because he knew that Yang Guang's final destination was somewhere else.

At this time, the most excited person in the entire Sui Dynasty should be Yang Xuan, the king of Qi, he found an excuse to leave the army that day, and ran to Fenyang County, and recently stayed in Fenyang Palace, in his opinion, his father Yang Guang seems to be dead this time, and Yang Guang did not set up a prince, then his eldest son, must be the most qualified to succeed to the throne.

Yang Jian felt hateful that because of Su Wei's obstruction, he now only had a few thousand under his command, which was not enough to deter, and Yun Dingxing, Li Yuan and others didn't pay much attention to him.

"When I sit on the dragon chair, I will make you look good!" Yang Jun said with hatred in his heart......

More than 10 days have passed, at this time in the Yanmen Pass, everyone's faces are sad and gloomy, since the Yanmen Pass was besieged on August 13, the Sui army of 80,000 soldiers has been under the siege of the Turkic army of 400,000, held on for nearly a month.

The original 80,000 people are now only more than 10,000 people left, and the Turks still don't know when they will retreat, and Yanmen Pass may be breached at any time at this time.

"Solvay misunderstood me! If you break through early, there is still a glimmer of life, it is better than being scared for more than a month, and finally you will die at the hands of thieves! Yang Guang was almost crushed at this time, and shouted loudly, and after hearing the voices, they were all silent.

Yu Shiji pondered for a while in his heart, seeing that this Yanmen Pass could not be defended, should he do something to save his life, for example, should he surrender to Shibi Khan and open the gate of Yanmen Pass for him?

There are not many people who have the same thoughts as Yu Shiji, and sometimes they do everything in order to survive.

At this moment, a little eunuch suddenly walked in in a hurry, and shouted as he walked: "God bless Your Majesty, God bless Your Majesty!" ”

Yang Guang pulled out his long sword, pointed at the little eunuch with a cold face, and said, "What are you doing noisy?" ”

The little eunuch hurriedly knelt down, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, Sudden ...... Turkic ...... Turkic ......"

"The Turks have invaded Yanmen Pass?" Yang Guang said that he was going to flee from here.

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "No, it's the Turks who have withdrawn!" ”

After Yang Guang heard this, the long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang".

The Turks did retreat.

The Turks never came on the march without follow-up supplies, and had no food other than some dry rations with them. After more than a month of hard fighting in Yanmen, the dry food had already been eaten, and the grain obtained from the looting and plundering was becoming less and less with the increase of reinforcements from the Sui Dynasty.

So at the end of the fight, some troops will start killing horses to satisfy their hunger.

In this regard, the leaders and chieftains under Shibi Khan naturally complained, and they led the warriors of the tribe to the south, in order to continue to rob the material after killing Yang Guang, but this Yanmen Pass was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the soldiers inside resisted desperately, so that after killing and wounding countless warriors, they still found nothing.

In addition, at this time, seeing that it is the middle of September and winter is coming, everyone's hearts are retreating, and they don't want to spend any more time here.

However, Shibi Khan had a high prestige and was ruthless, so no one dared to propose to him to withdraw from the army.

But at this moment, an urgent letter from the Turkic Kehedun came from the north, which gave the Turkic leaders the courage to retreat to Shibi.

The letter sent by Princess Yicheng was only four words: "There is an urgent situation in the north!" ”

As for what the "urgency" was, she didn't say anything about it, but the Turkic leaders and chieftains didn't care about it, as long as they had an excuse, they all asked Shibi Khan to retreat.

Although Shi Bi was unwilling, in the face of such a situation, he could only order the withdrawal of troops and return to the grassland.
