Chapter 120: Why Don't You Descend?
When it was dark, Jia Kui stepped on the stone with one foot and crossed his waist with one hand, looking into the distance in high spirits. It wasn't until his neck stretched out a little sore that he withdrew his gaze, glanced at a party general tied to the ground next to him, and said, "What's your name?" You thieves, how many years have you been Muwanghua, accustomed to Chinese customs, and you can't even name well, what kind of chatter, croaking, can't talk well? Straight lady thief, it's also a headache to catch your merits! ”
A pro-soldier next to him grinned and said, "Marquis Yu, this guy is called the name of the fine mother, and I really can't hear what it means." ”
Jia Kui glanced at the fine mother on the ground and took a sip: "Oh, you are still glaring at me!" If it weren't for the fact that you have the exploits of many of us here, Grandpa would have cut off your dog's head with a single sword! I ran away from that five-mile slave in the mountain pass, and finally caught you with a zigza, and I barely managed to row it. ”
At this moment, Yang Wenguang walked down from the top of the mountain and said to Jia Kui: "Send the prisoners of war back immediately, arrange manpower, and guard the surroundings." Now most of the mountain has gone to besiege the city of Zhuoluo, and we will stay here to prevent thieves from coming to reinforce the army. ”
Jia Kui promised, stretched out his leg and kicked the fine mother on the ground, and then let the soldiers escort away.
Yuan Hao finally rushed out of this mountainous area before dark, and went to Lingzhou with the remnants of about 10,000 soldiers and horses. The closer it was to the evening, the more it reached the edge of the mountain, the more fierce the party army became, and the 50,000 people from the Qinzhou army were likely to not be able to keep them even if they were forced to stay. The Qinzhou army came on the march of the double road, and the large combat equipment could not be carried, but it only occupied the geographical advantage in advance and caught the party army by surprise. The war really dragged on, so that Yuan Hao figured out the details of the Song army, broke the net, and fought hard to the end, but I am afraid that it will be a defeat battle at most, and the results are not as brilliant as they are now.
When the sun was about to set, Yeli Yuqi retreated to the city of Zhuoluo with the remnants of his tribe, and defended the city. The Song army surrounded the small Zhuoluo City, and did not attack the city overnight, so I don't know what the idea was.
When he arrived at the city lord's mansion, many people came out to catch him and welcomed Ye Liyu to the mansion. After taking his seat, there were many people and Baoqing asked Yeli Yuqi: "King, I wonder if Your Majesty has broken out of the encirclement?" ”
Ye Li Yu begged and said in a deep voice: "When it was almost evening, I saw that the Song troops in the mountains were all assembled in the valley, and Your Majesty should have rushed out." Now that there are only five or six thousand of us left in the city, how do the prison guards think they should deal with the Song army outside the city? ”
Renduo Baoqing was silent for a while, and sighed: "How else can I deal with it?" It is nothing more than holding on to the city and waiting for reinforcements. The Song army came quickly this time, and we didn't bring any siege equipment, so we can hold on for a few days. Zhuoluo City is connected to the west of the river in the west and the Tibetan tribes in the south, and its status is important, and His Majesty will definitely not sit idly by. As long as you hold on for ten days and a half months, there will be a great army to save you! ”
"Can you hold on for ten days and a half months?" Yeli Yuqi shook his head slightly. "The Song army did not attack the city overnight, it must have been making all kinds of siege equipment. The walls of Zhuoluo City are low, and the walls are thin, but I am afraid that I will not be able to hold it for so long-"
can defend for ten days and a half months, why should Yuan Hao desperately break through, isn't it better to stay in the city? Ten days and a half months is enough for the Xishou Military Division and Lingzhou to send an army to relieve the siege. The Song army is different from the party that is not good at attacking the city, how can such a small city be able to stop them for many days, and it will be terrible in two or three days.
The family to which Baoqing belongs is in the north of Zhuoluo City, close to the Xiliang area, Yuan Hao and Yeli Yuqi can pat their butts and leave, but he can't easily abandon the city. Without the multi-ethnic group, he would not have the status he has today. Seeing that Yeli Yuqi had no confidence in defending the city, he had to remain silent. At this time, if you let more people abandon the city and break through, he will not be willing to do it anyway. Yuan Hao came to Zhuoluo City with 20,000 guards, but he was instructed to have to take most of the 1,000 or 2,000 people brought by Yeli Yu to beg for life and have died in battle.
Seeing that there were many people, Baoqing was silent, why didn't Yeli know what he meant? Sighing, he said, "Prison Army, this is where your headquarters is located, and you will not be able to throw it away easily." But it is impossible for us to hold the city of Zoro. Now I have two strategies, and the overseer will consider it. ”
There are many people and Baoqing hurriedly said: "But there is a good plan, the king can talk about it!" ”
"One strategy is that we immediately break through and go in the direction of Xiliang. After Your Majesty breaks through, the Song army will definitely not block the road to the north anymore, and most of us should be able to escape by taking advantage of the darkness. ”
When Baoqing heard this, his face was expressionless, and he didn't say anything. To go to Xiliang is to go to his own clan, and he was chased by the Song army, and he was afraid that he would have to put many people into it. No matter how good Ye Li Yu begs to say, it is also a way to make people multi-ethnic as a shield, and he has the idea of taking the opportunity to escape.
Seeing the reaction of many people Baoqing, Ye Liyu secretly sighed, and said: "The second strategy is to surrender in Kaesong." Zhuoluo City will definitely not be protected, and you many people will have no fundamental land, so it is better to surrender to Song Naqing. I don't ask for much, just take the rest of the people in my headquarters and leave safely. From then on, Zhuo Luo and the Southern Supervision Military Division belonged to the Great Song Dynasty. ”
When Baoqing heard this, he raised his head sharply and said, "The king's plan is good." As the saying goes, when people are under the roof, they have to bow their heads. Now that we are surrounded by the Song army, what if we descend temporarily? The king left safely, and I chose someone from the clan to accept Qinzhou as a proton, and endure the idleness for a while. Wait until the king mobilizes the surrounding soldiers and horses, and then recaptures Zhuoluo City. ”
Ye Liyu said with a smile: "Since the prison army also thinks that this plan is feasible, then we can't wait, and we must immediately send someone out of the city to discuss in detail." ”
Many people Baoqing looked at Yeli Yuqi, and was silent for a while before saying: "According to the king, who is suitable to go out of the city?" ”
"Originally, the supervision army was the most suitable, but once you go out of the city and are detained by the Song army, there may be abnormal movements in the soldiers and horses in the city. And if the identity of the person sent out is not enough, Song Jun may not pay attention to it, so in this way, only I will go. ”
There are many people Baoqing didn't expect Yeli Yuqi to take the initiative to ask for help, and he was a little moved for no reason, holding Yeli Yuqi's hand and saying: "It's dangerous, if the Song army detains people, we can't do anything - the king of hard work, go early and return early!" ”
The moon did not rise, and the sky was full of stars, and the earth was dappled with dappled light. The Song army camp outside the city was brightly lit and surrounded Zhuoluo City. Torches dotted throughout the valley and into the nearby hills.
Yeli Yuqi knew that his guess was right, and the Song army must have gone up the mountain overnight to cut down trees and make siege equipment. With the low walls of Zhuoluo City, as long as the Song army made a simple ladder, it would be breached within a day or two.
Led two personal soldiers down from the city wall, Ye Li Yuqi looked up at the city, and there was a faint shadow of people Baoqing under the starlight. At this time, he couldn't help but have an impulse, so he took two of his own soldiers to escape at night, and the soldiers and horses of the overseers near the city died. Looking back, he saw that the Song army camp was densely packed around, and there were dozens of horsemen watching him not far away, so he had to forcibly extinguish this thought. The city of Zhuoluo has been besieged, and there is still a chance to escape.
In the handsome tent not far from the city, Xu Ping was arranging for tomorrow's siege to several commanders, Li Zhangzheng hurriedly came in, and said with a forked hand: "After a while, Ye Liyu, the leader of the right wing of the thief Tiandu, begged to see him, saying that he was willing to surrender!" ”
