'Since the villain has returned to the court and is about to atone for his past sins, how dare he not work hard? ’

Su Ziyuan repeated it in his heart. Huang Jinman's official words had a thick accent, but Su Ziyuan didn't feel uncomfortable listening to it at all. Guangyuan's handsome words fell in his ears, and the implication was that 'the villain can't write the name, but the villain knows how to make it.' ’

It's just that after making a decision, he turned back so resolutely. Su Ziyuan understood from his own experience, even if he was a barbarian, he was not all a waste like Liu Yong.

looked at the old handsome man with a smiling face, this person acted so decisively, if he was allowed to become bigger, it might be a big trouble in the future. But that is also a matter of the future, and the immediate priority is still Yongzhou.

Looking at the south, Yongzhou City is still far below the horizon, and there is no trace of it at all. "Li Sheng led half of his men and horses to escape, but sixty miles away, presumably Li Changjie will be able to receive the news that the official army occupies Kunlun Pass today."

"Of course, of course." Jinjin's face was full of flattering snees, "Su Huangcheng has been guarding Yongzhou for almost two months, and it won't be a problem to hold it for a few more days." Defending Yongzhou City must be a sky-high achievement, and then he will be able to enter the court to be a minister. ”

Su Ziyuan admired Han Gang's understanding of barbarians more and more. The words he asked He Xi to convey were very straightforward and not polite. Asking Huang Jinman to choose which dog to be is not a word at all, but an outdated ultimatum. The barbarians are afraid of power but not virtue, and the tougher they are, the more obedient they are. Huang Jinman's reaction is the best confirmation of Han Gang's words.

Han Gang's words are indeed valid. In Su Ziyuan's experience, if he is negotiating with a barbarian, he must not reveal his bottom line and internal information. But Han Gang not only said that he only had 800 soldiers, but also said that he was not sure to take Yongzhou City. But he dared to let He Yi relay it like this, because his kindness was only before the city of Yongzhou was broken. As long as Yongzhou City falls, there is nothing to ask for, and even if the gold is full of Kunlun Pass, there is nothing to handle.

This is a matter of confidence, as well as the grasp of the enemy's mind. No wonder he has such a great reputation at a young age, and his official position even overwhelms his father, who has been an official for decades. Look at his decision to lead 800 troops south from Guizhou; After a few days of traveling, he faced Liu Yong's thief army who dared to fight; The eye that can see through the tactics of the thief army; and the intelligence of calculating people's hearts, Su Ziyuan had to be impressed.

The victory of Changshan Station can be said to have been manipulated by Han Gang. When he went south with Han Gang, Su Ziyuan just wanted to be closer to his father. I never thought that with only 800 soldiers, I would be able to reach Yongzhou - after passing the Kunlun Pass, it is already the boundary of Yongzhou.

In the early afternoon, more than 200 Guangyuan soldiers who were sent to pursue the enemy army carried their heads and armor and returned singing. Huang Jinman sent his son Huang Yuan to lead his troops to Jinchengyi further south, and he returned to Kunlun Pass with Su Ziyuan. Just now they received a report from the rear that Han Gang had already arrived in Guancheng at this time.

Jinchengyi is on the mountain pass that connects Yongzhou and Pennsylvania. It is only twenty miles away from Quy Nhon Shop, where Di Qing annihilated the main force of Nong Zhigao. And Quy Nhon Pu is only less than 20 miles away from Yongzhou City.

Although Su Ziyuan wanted to go further and kill under the city of Yongzhou, let the officials and soldiers defending the city, let his parents, and let his brothers, wives and children all know that the officials and soldiers who rescued Yongzhou had come, and he Su Ziyuan had also returned. But he understands very well that if he wants to relieve the siege of Yongzhou, the next step is not to use swords, but to make Li Changjie frightened and the besieging Jiaozhi soldiers frightened, rather than revealing his own reality.

After Han Gang and Li Xin saw He Yi leading Huang Quan, the son of Huang Jinman as a hostage, they immediately led their troops to Kunlun Pass from Pennsylvania.

Han Gang did not doubt Huang Jinman's sincerity. What can he get from the Jiaozhi people, and what can he get from the Great Song Dynasty. This is the simplest arithmetic problem that even a child can understand. This is not the difference between one and two, but the difference between one and one hundred.

But Li Xin, in order to prevent accidents, still sent a commander to take over the customs defense first, and then entered the customs with Han Gang, which was delayed for more than an hour. And when they walked into Guancheng, they immediately received the good news of the victory of Changshan Station.

Jin Jin was full of knowledge and interest, and a big gift made Han Gang and Li Xin overjoyed. Unexpectedly, overnight, not only did Kunlun Pass get its hands on it, but even the 1,000 Jiaozhi soldiers in Changshanyi south of Guancheng no longer became an obstacle, and Li Changjie's defense line in the north of Yongzhou no longer existed.

Not all the generals who defected had such eyes and courage, and Huang Jinman's example made it impossible for Li Changjie to trust the Guangyuan barbarian army around him, once the two sides lost harmony, there would be more opportunities to get up and down.

"Back then, there were only thirty-six horsemen around Ban Dingyuan, but there were eight hundred elites around us." Li Xin was very excited, and even talked a little more. If you can make a career with 800 people and flee 100,000 thieves in embarrassment, it will be the glory of a general's life.

"It's not that simple." Standing on the Kunlun Pass, the ancient city, Han Gang looked at the plain outside the mountain to the north, which was the Nanning Basin in later geography. From Guizhou to Yongzhou, there is only a difference of dozens of miles for thousands of miles, "It is much more difficult to walk the last dozens of miles than the previous nine hundred miles." ”

Li Xin was silent, indeed, there are 100,000 troops over there, and if you want to use a three-inch tongue to surrender or use your strength to fight, the difficulty is thousands of times higher than before.

"And Yongzhou." He Yi, who returned from Kunlun Pass, heard the latest battle situation in Yongzhou City, and Han Gang's heart actually only held the last glimmer of hope, "The Jiaozhi soldiers have already entered the city the day before yesterday, and the city defense of Yongzhou has been destroyed, if you want to stop the enemy, you can only rely on street fighting." You can watch the past battle examples, and ask how long the defenders can hold after the city is broken? Now that another day has passed, how long can Yongzhou last? ”

Li Xin was even more silent. His cousin was right, Yongzhou City was the one to worry about. In the case of the city wall losing its effect and the city defense being defeated, it is difficult to resist even for a day, and the key is that the military spirit in the city cannot be supported. Now we can only pray that Su Mian can stabilize the morale of the Yongzhou army.

When the sky was full of red clouds, Su Ziyuan and Huang Jinman came back.

The banner of the Great Song Dynasty was fluttering on the head of the city, so that the gold man dismounted and walked a hundred steps away from the city. Han Gang did not treat this hero slowly, he personally went out to greet him.

Han Gang, who was only in his twenties, and Li Xin, who was also young, surprised Huang Jinman. However, seeing Su Xuan's son Su Ziyuan's respect for Han Gang, as well as Han Gang's long-standing demeanor, he was relieved. The identity of this deputy envoy of Guangxi transshipment - the popular name of the people is the transshipment minister - should not be fake.

"Li Changjie treats people mean and is extremely stingy." Huang Jinman explained to Han Gang that his betrayal was Li Changjie's fault, and he knew that no one liked betrayers, "Originally, Yongzhou City should have been attacked by our Guangyuan army, but after Li Changjie narrowly defeated the official army in Kunlun Pass, he was offered a ladder car and a cave to attack Hao. Thinking that he could break the city, he sent the villain to guard Kunlun Pass. ”

"There are no such things in the court. Even if the court is stingy, you will get more than when you are generous. Not to mention, the Son has always been generous today. This time, the Son of Heaven was very angry and vowed to capture Li Qiande's mother and son back to Bianjing. After taking Jiaozhi, there will be no big Yue Kingdom. At that time, it is up to you whether you will continue to live in the mountains of Guangyuan Prefecture or occupy the fertile land near Thang Long Mansion. ”

Han Gang's promise made Huang Jinman and the other Guangyuan Cave Masters overjoyed. At the same time, Huang Jinman was also a little frightened in his heart, and the officials sent by the imperial court knew a lot about the geography of Jiaozhi. At least there are many mountains in Quang Yuanju, and there are many plains near Thang Long Province.

"By the way, this time I also captured a few prisoners, and I will be dedicated to the envoy." Jin Man said flatteringly.

It's said that there are a few captives, but it's really only a few. Han Gang was in Pennsylvania, so he left He Yi alive, and Huang Jinman only left three or four. Except for Ruan Pingzhong, a big fish, only three monks with shaved heads and monk robes walked into Han Gang's sight.

"What's going on with them?" Han Gang was extremely surprised, "The Jiaozhi people still bring monks with them when they go into battle?" "This is the predecessor of the chaplain? I've never heard of this habit in Cochin. Isn't it too unlucky, if you die in battle, you can just overtake it in time?

"The envoy doesn't know." Huang Jinman knew that Han Gang had misunderstood, and explained, "They are actually all spies of the Jiaozhi people. Mrs. Lee...... Li Changjie After he conquered Qinzhou and Lianzhou, he got a lot of degrees. selected people according to the appearance of the year A on the degree, and let them change into monk's clothes to investigate the military situation. These are all brought to Penn last night with the Heavenly Army, and the news of Liu Yong's head was passed. I'm going to report ......"

Huang Jinman was explaining to Han Gang, when he found that the young Han Yun's face was a little gloomy, and his heart froze, and his voice suddenly stopped.

"Send a message back to Pennsylvania!" Han Gang's face was gloomy, and he glared at He Yi fiercely, "And inform the ...... of the prefectures and counties in Guangxi."

There are many believers in Buddhism in the south, and the rich often buy a degree of Buddha and shave a few monks and nuns as a substitute for their children. In order to avoid the trouble of often going to the yamen to open a prescription, many merchants also have to buy a lot of money. Unexpectedly, Li Changjie knew that he wanted to take advantage of this loophole! Even in wartime, as long as you hold a degree of mouse, enter and exit the city defense, and pass through the pass, no one will care!

He Yi's face was as pale as dirt, and he forgot to say such an important thing.

"Anyone who enters and exits the city will be imprisoned and strictly interrogated, and no one can be missed!"
