The six thousand Fengzhou elite cavalry broke away from the three thousand elite cavalry behind the palace, and when they left about a mile, He Daxian moved.

Of course, He Daxian did not order the whole army to charge, but stood up and patted his horse, rode out alone, and ran up slowly, followed by only two guards of the Zhao family army wearing heavy armor.

When Yelu Kuma looked at it, the enemy commander rode up alone to ask for dialogue, and a hanging heart was slightly lowered.

It seems that Tang Jun is not ready to fight, but just wants to come up and pretend to be a force. Then it's no problem, let's pretend to be forced together, it's not that I haven't pretended. So it was also a horse's belly, and the horse walked forward, heading towards He Daxian.

The two generals of both sides met in the middle, separated by ten meters, and each reined in his horse.

Jerukuma was a large, bearded man, with a large trident in his hand that glistened in the dim winter sun. The whole person is majestic, and a momentum that stands up to the sky and the earth arises spontaneously!

It is no wonder that in the official history, this foreigner later entered the core of the Great Liao Empire and became the chief steward of the Recruiting Division in the southwest of the Great Liao Empire.

This is the period of the Five Generations! Following the extravagant fashion of the Tang Dynasty, everything is floating clouds, and appearance is king!

Even if Yelu Kuma has a full beard, he is still handsome and compelling, unbeatable, plus a triangular body comparable to a bodybuilder, and he himself is a super-first-class riding master, ranking sixth on the list of the top ten Khitan heroes, how can he not be developed!

Yelu Kuma's eyes were blazing as he looked at the emaciated Tang Army general in front of him, whom he had met for the first time.

Of course, he knew that this was Zhao Ping, the famous envoy of the Zhenwu Army who had been famous recently. Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the Zhenwu Army has only been growing for a few months, and it has never been defeated against the Khitan Army, which makes it difficult to imagine how deep this person's water is. (Nonsense, people are immortals, how can you mortals understand!) ）

Zhao Ping didn't wear a helmet on his head, his long hair was tied in a long ponytail at the back of his head, his face was relaxed, he squinted and stared at Yelu Kuma, who was speechless, for a long time, and then suddenly said in fluent Ele language: "Yelu Kuma, you are not a Khitan, you are a Ele." ”

Yelu Kuma's face froze, his face sank, and he also replied in the Ele language: "Lord Zhao is talking nonsense, how are you doing?" ”

In the early years, the people of Eile were nomads living in the area of Lake Berga, and the people of the Central Plains also called them Gaocha people, and their carriage wheels were particularly large. In the early years, he fought with the Xiongnu Xianbei, and after the Xiongnu withdrew, they invaded the steppe in the south and established the Gaoche country, who would have thought that it would be destroyed and annexed by the Rouran Empire in a few days.

Finally, the Rouran Empire collapsed, and the Eile people rebuilt their homes, but they were unlucky, and were destroyed by the Northern Yan Xianbei Empire, which was sitting in the Central Plains at that time, and so on until the rise of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty destroyed the Northern Yan, and ordered the Eile people to be forcibly relocated from their homeland, and the Eile people were even more displaced, divided, and fled everywhere, some fled into the Central Plains, some fled to the Western Regions, and some stayed in the northern steppes, and gradually dissolved into other ethnic groups in the magnificent historical river.

In the past 30 years, the Khitan has risen, and the Eile people have lost a good opportunity again, so they have to vassalize the Khitan and become "Khitans" again.

In this era, the rebuilding of the Gaoche country is still an unforgettable dream in the hearts of the people of Eile, where are they really willing to become Khitans!

I saw Zhao Ping laughing, no longer stimulating Yelu Kuma, but just turned to Khitan and said gloomily:

"The Khitan trend has gone, and it will die next year, General Kuma, please respect yourself!"

"Less nonsense, if you want to fight, you will fight! There is no need to resort to such a clumsy discord! ”

Zhao Ping's face turned pale, revealing a contemptuous expression:

"Huh, war? Does your army still have the strength to fight? Go back and tell Yelu Bugu that I want it in Fengzhou! Give you a day, and you are not allowed to take more than a thousand people from Toyoshu, twenty cars! One more person, one more car, no matter what kind of Fengzhou elite you are, I will hunt you down to the end of the world! ”

After that, Zhao Ping turned the horse's head, and before leaving, he turned back and said:

"By the way, Sister Ling Yelucai is in the hands of our army, but don't worry, our army will treat her well, and she will become a noble lady of the Tang Dynasty, a peaceful life, and a rich life."

After speaking, Zhao Ping patted his horse and ran back to his main formation.

Yelu Kuma was stunned on the spot, looking at Zhao Ping's back blankly, and there was no movement for a long time.

As Zhao Ping said, the Tang army remained on the spot. When Yelu Lu Bugu's 6,000 troops went away, Yelu Kuma also slowly retreated with 3,000 Khitan Fengzhou elites, and after leaving the Tang army for two miles, he turned around and quickly chased Yelu Bugu.

At dawn the next day, 15,000 German troops and 17,000 Zhenwu troops arrived at the foot of Fengzhou Castle and surrounded Fengzhou Castle at the east and north gates.

There are four gates in the east, west, north and south of Toyoshu Castle, of which the south and west gates are close to the river, and only the east and north gates are land passages.

Yelu Bugu and Yelu Kuma really only quietly took away more than 900 people and 20 carts of goods, and the defenders in the city did not know that those high-ranking Khitan officials had fled.

There are still 20,000 Khitan defenders and more than 100,000 Khitan people left in Fengzhou City.

Fengzhou City, the capital of the Tiande Army of the Tang Dynasty during the Song Yao period, is now the capital of the Recruiting Division in the southwest of the Khitan Kingdom. Fengzhou City in the Song Yao period was already a large fortified city, and after the Khitan took over, the city walls were strengthened and many defensive facilities were installed.

The four gates of Fengzhou City have urn cities, the city wall is twelve meters high, and the wall bricks are all made of fired mud bricks, although it is not as perverted as Xiazhou occupied by the Dingyan army, but compared with those famous big cities in the Central Plains, it is not inferior, not to mention the tofu slag city wall that is generally piled up with loess on the grassland.

This is also the reason why so many Khitan people, mainly some wealthy landlords or large ranchers, have fled into Fengzhou City.

According to the standards of the Central Plains, such a fortified city, without 50,000 people, could not be breached at all.

20,000 defenders, and more than 100,000 civilians who can be mobilized. There are only more than 30,000 Tang troops besieging the city outside, and under this kind of comparison of troops, Fengzhou City will be defended for three months to half a year, so it should not be a big problem. What's more, it's December now, the weather is getting colder and colder, as long as Fengzhou City holds on for about ten days, once it starts to snow heavily, the Tang army outside the city will inevitably withdraw.

Of course, these are the imaginations of the Khitan soldiers and civilians defending the city.

Most people don't know that it was not the ordinary Tang Army who came to attack the city, but the Zhenwu Army!

For the Zhenwu Army, which was brainwashed by He Daxian, it takes a little brains to fight a field battle, and where to attack the city, you need to use your brains!

He Daxian got up in the morning and stood by the river to face the river breeze, and after finishing pretending, he returned to the big handsome tent, sat on the big handsome chair and continued to pretend to be forced.

Recently, Lord Zhao has been pretending to be forced for longer and longer, and he must pretend to be forced for at least three hours at night, and now it has become the norm to get up early in the morning and pretend to be forced for two hours. There is no way, the lord said that if you want to learn from Lord Sang Weihan of the Jin Dynasty, you must "grind through the iron inkstone"! Poor little cicada took an iron inkstone and grinded ink for several months, but this inkstone did not show any signs of grinding, when can it really grind through the iron inkstone, the little cicada was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"You're 11 years old now, and when you're 15 years old, you're almost ready to wear it out." Zhao Ping, Lord Zhao, once comforted his little girl very seriously.

Whatever the adults say is what they say, where can the little girl refute it! Keep grinding and don't stop!

As for the siege or something, just let a few marching staff officers sum it up and formulate the implementation process, He Daxian is impatient to take care of such a small matter.

"Report, the fold is here."

"Cicada, serve tea."

Zhi Congyuan strode into the tent, and was just about to kneel down and salute, but Zhao Ping hurriedly went up to support him. After all, now everyone is considered an official of the Later Tang Dynasty court at the same level, and there are some things that still need to be avoided.

Zhao Ping dragged his hand from a distance and walked to the tea table on the side, the guest and the host sat down, and the little maid also served tea.

"May I ask Lord Zhao, what is the next step?"

"The Zhenwu army attacked the city and defeated the people who defended the city wall, and then the Tiande army entered the city and occupied it."

"What about the enemy and the people defending the city?"

"The Zhenwu army took away 30,000 women, and other personnel and ordnance, as well as animal grain and grass property, were all left to the Tiande army to dispose of."

"Yes, Lord Zhao. With this arrangement, the Tiande army will be ready to attack Jining next spring. ”

"No, don't worry about Jining for now, the future opponent of the Tiande Army is the Khitan Collapsed Ridge Jiedu Envoy and the Northwest Road Recruitment Division. In the future, starting from Fengzhou, 10,000 li to the north and west, it is the territory of the Tiande Army! ”

Zhe Congyuan's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but stand up, knelt down on one knee and made a big gift to Zhao Ping.

"Don't be busy, wait until Fengzhou captures it. Also, I told Li Yimin and Yang Hongxin that you would send some people over and move tens of thousands of herdsmen and farmers from Lingzhou in Xiazhou to rebuild Dongshengzhou, but it was a pity that the land was deserted. ”

In the afternoon, the siege preparations of the Zhenwu army had been completed.

Eighty catapults were erected, fifty arrow towers were also erected, and even the two thousand "street fighter siege team" led by Zhao Kuangyin also arrived at the foot of Fengzhou City.

"Start the siege!" Zhao Ping calmly gave the order. (To be continued.) )
