197 Thousands of miles of war

Yang Guang is still high, but he has already put down his posture, he tried his best to make himself calmer, and he could see the palpitations at the moment when he saw the crowds outside the city, which still made him feel uncomfortable.

He has never been embarrassed, even if the conquest of Liaodong is lost, and when Yang Xuangan rebels, he can still make his subordinates resolve it with ease.

Yang Xuangan took the old valve and raised his arms, although the followers gathered, but it was only half a month's effort, and it had already collapsed, but what happened now, seeing the panicked faces of the ministers, Yang Guang suddenly had a sad feeling, no one could save him this time.

Do you count on the valve in the east of the river in Longxi, I am here to eradicate them this time, do you count on the elite soldiers in the eastern capital, but how long will it take for them to arrive? I felt embarrassed when I entered the city in a hurry, and I forgot to send troops to ask for help, and now I am besieged by the Turkic soldiers, how can I go out to report the news? Do you count on these powerful ministers around you, but they all look panicked, who can they count on now?

"Holy Lord, the old minister has something to report." Su Wei stepped forward tremblingly.

"Say it." Yang Guang waved his hand and glanced at Xiao Buyi.

"If the Turkic soldiers are really as Xiao Shaoqing said, there are 400,000 people, our situation is really not good. Now there are only a few thousand defenders in the city, and there are only more than 20,000 Janissaries in the Holy Belt. ”

"400,000 vs. 20,000?" Yang Guang muttered to himself, a little distracted, he once used a million troops to conquer Liaodong, at that time Liaodong was only tens of thousands of troops, but he still returned with a feather, what can only 20,000 people do now?

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but express his doubts, he soon knew what these 20,000 people could do, and the food that 20,000 people ate every day was not much less than what he wasted.

"Shengshang, the old minister has counted, there are about 150,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, and the supply of grain and grass in the city is only enough for 20 days, so please make a decision as soon as possible."

"You mean, even if the Turkic soldiers can't capture Yanmen City, we will only be able to live for more than twenty days?" Yang Guang took the case and said angrily.

Su Wei trembled and said: "That's true, but if you want to save some food, maybe you can support it in a month." It's just that the soldiers are working hard to defend the city, and if they can't eat enough, the ministers are afraid that they will have different hearts. ”

Yang Guang snorted coldly, turned his head and asked, "Yuwen Aiqing, what do you have in mind?" ”

Yu Wenshu hesitated, "Shengshang, the Turkic army is strong, and now it is suddenly going south, but after all, it is a rabble. There are more than 10,000 elite soldiers in the Eastern Capital around him, and he can choose a few thousand elite cavalry to protect him, and at night, he can break out of the siege while the Turkic soldiers are unstable. Yanmen County is not too far from Loufu Taiyuan, and the Bird Mouse Valley is even more dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if it is ......"

"Holy one, never." Su Wei hurriedly said, "The Lord of the Holy Ten Thousand Vehicles, how can he break through rashly? The walls of Yanmen City are strong, the city defense is complete, we still have spare strength to defend the city, but the riding is the strength of the Turkic soldiers, if the Holy Lord easily breaks through, it is already too short, and it is really not a wise move to defeat the enemy. ”

Yuwen Shu snorted coldly, "But we are now in a cage," originally wanted to say that the beast was trapped in the cage, but he felt very disrespectful to Yang Guang, Yu Wenshu changed his words and said: "If we break out, we may be in danger, but we are trapped here, there is not enough food and grass, if there is no foreign aid, I am only afraid that the safety of the saint will be more problematic." ”

Yang Guang's eyes looked at Pei Yun and said, "Pei Aiqing, what do you mean?" ”

"Weichen thinks what Suna said makes a lot of sense."

"Yu Aiqing, what about you?"

"Minister," Yu Shiji resigned, "What the Holy Lord wants, His Majesty just swears to follow." ”

Yang Guang slapped the table angrily, "You can't say anything else except death?" ”

Yu Shiji was sincerely frightened and sweated profusely. Yang Guang knew that he didn't have any opinions, if he wanted to say that it was okay to intrigue and slap horses, but if he wanted to lead the army to fight and save people from crisis, then asking him could be regarded as asking him blindly.

"General, what do you mean?"

Yang Guang is now in a hurry to go to the doctor, and all the ministers are eager to ask them one by one, only hoping that one will highlight the strange strategy and save the king from danger, although he also knows that this idea is very unrealistic.

Lai Hu'er pondered for a long time before saying: "Actually, what General Yuwen said is also reasonable, but it is to put the saint in danger, in the opinion of the old minister, the Turkic soldiers came for profit, and left without profit. Although Shibi Khan brought 400,000 people with great momentum, there were very few people with one heart. As long as we hold on and wait for help, the Turkic soldiers, except for Shibi Khan, most of the tribes will inevitably get tired and tired of returning when they are unprofitable. At that time, even if reinforcements do not arrive, we are very sure that we will break through again. ”

Yang Guang nodded, feeling that this idea was a helpless method, at least it seemed to be more clever than other ministers.

"In this case, we are currently guarding the city and waiting for reinforcements, waiting for an opportunity to break through, who will be responsible for defending the city?"

Fan Zigai, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, stepped forward and said: "Back to the saint, now that Yanmen City is surrounded on all sides, the Turkic soldiers have just lost their troops in a battle, and their sharpness has been greatly reduced. The north, east, west, and south sides are respectively from the general, General Yuwen, Sunayan and Weichen are responsible, the city is well defended, the Turkic soldiers are only good at horse warfare, not long siege cities, we stick to the problem of food and grass, there is no big problem. It's just that now the enemy is too strong and our morale is not high, what the Holy Lord needs to do is to boost morale and let everyone fight bravely, so as to ensure that the defense of the city is foolproof. ”

"How do you boost morale?"

"According to Weichen's view, the reason for the low morale is only because the saint wants to start an army against Liaodong, and the generals are afraid that the saint will go to conquer Liaodong after he is exempted from the disaster of the Turks." Fan Zigai said in a deep voice: "If the Holy Lord declares that he will not conquer Liaodong in the next ten years and will focus on conquering the Turks, then whether it is the soldiers in the city or the soldiers and civilians of the counties, they should be stable in their hearts and fight for themselves. If the saint can personally comfort the soldiers and reward the title, he will definitely let everyone take the lead, so why worry about the Turkic soldiers not retreating? ”

After Fan Zigai finished speaking in one breath, there was silence in the city.

Xiao Buyi can't help but admire what Fan Zigai said well, in fact, what he said was exactly what he wanted to say. But everyone knows that the conquest of Liaodong has always been a sensitive topic, and it is easy to touch Yang Guang's backlash, and he will be reprimanded at best, and he may be exiled if he is heavy, but Fan Zigai still dares to say that he is a great loyal minister, and he is still thinking about the Great Sui.

It's just that he loves the country, and the country doesn't necessarily love him, Yang Guang just looked at him coldly, speechless for a long time.

Fan Zigai did not flinch, looked at Yang Guang calmly, and said in a deep voice: "The saint, the subordinates are really from the bottom of their hearts, and they only hope that the saint will think twice." Now that the army is pressing, the Holy One should focus on the overall situation, and at the moment, which is more important than the Liaodong Turks, I think there is a certain number in the mind of the Holy One. ”

Yang Guang was silent for a long time before he said: "What you said is not unreasonable, everything is done according to what Fan Shangshu said." ”

The ministers are full of joy, and they are all in good spirits. Yang Guang turned his head a little reluctantly, looked at Liu Fan and said, "Liu Fan, you are not by King Qi's side, what are you doing here?" ”

Liu Fan repeated what he said to Laihu'er, loyal and impassioned.

Yang Guang nodded slowly when he listened, "Wu'er is also thoughtful, Liu Fan, you risked your life to report the news, and you are also loyal, not much different from Xiao Buyi." ”

Liu Fan glanced at Xiao Buyi, and suddenly said: "Holy Lord, it is the duty of your subordinates to be loyal, but your subordinates have risked death to come and put life and death out of the way a long time ago, but there are some things, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?" ”

Yang Guang frowned, "What are you going to say?" ”

Liu Fan Huo Ran turned around and stretched out his hand to point at Xiao Buyi, "Your Majesty suspects that Xiao Buyi is a Turkic annihilator. ”

Xiao Buyi was not surprised, his face remained unchanged, but the ministers were shocked, but they just looked at Yang Guang.

"Oh?" Yang Guang said indifferently: "How do you say this? ”

Liu Fan has confidence in his heart, he has not seen Yang Guang and Xiao Buyi say a word in [***] City for a long time, and when Yang Guang asked for advice, he never asked Xiao Buyi, does this mean that Xiao Buyi is insignificant in Yang Guang's mind?

"Returning to the saint, Weichen suspects that Xiao Buyi is the internal annihilation of the Turks, and it is not groundless! Xiao Buyi was originally a marriage envoy to the Turks, but it was not good, which made the Turks angry, although the first Bi Khan went south suddenly, but it is not clear whether it has anything to do with Xiao Buyi's lack of success, this suspicion is one. The Turkic soldiers went south, which was an extremely secret thing, but Xiao Buyi knew that he had miraculous powers, which made Wei Chen very puzzled. 400,000 Turkic soldiers rode south, and all the outposts did not move to transmit the message, but he was able to reach Laoxian and Yanmen City safe and sound, which is suspicious point three. He went all the way south, first to Cuixian, and wanted to deceive the king of Qi to open the city gate. The king of Qi was puzzled and asked him to dismount and abandon the army, but he refused to enter the city, but instead injured the city soldiers and ran to Yanmen City. Xiao Buyi was dressed in Turkic clothes, and when he arrived in Lao County, he faded, and everyone who defended the city saw it clearly, but the fox's tail forgot to cover it, which of these things is unbelievable, but Xiao Buyi was unharmed, to say that he was not in collusion with the Turks, the minister was really unbelievable. ”

"Anything else?" Yang Guang asked.

Liu Fan couldn't figure out Yang Guang's thoughts, but said: "Your Majesty feels that Xiao Buyi himself is full of suspicions, but he said it with a loyal heart and asked the Holy Lord to decide. ”

"Xiao Buyi, what do you have to say?" Yang Guang finally glanced at Xiao Buyi.

Xiao Buyi was not angry, not frightened, he could even be said to have no expression, "The minister has nothing to say." ”

Liu Fan was overjoyed, he had long known that Xiao Buyi was a good person, and it was commendable that he had nothing to say about him.

"Holy Lord, it seems that he also knows that no matter how much he quibbles, he can't escape the eyes of the Holy One."

"What do you say should be done with Xiao Buyi?" Yang Guang asked suddenly.

Liu Fan looked around, hesitated, gritted his teeth and said: "Back to the saint, Xiao Buyi fornicated with the Turks, plotted against the Turks, and should be beheaded according to the law." ”

Yang Guang nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, come on, push Liu Fan out and behead him." ”

"Saint Shangying......" Liu Fan didn't finish speaking, and he couldn't close his mouth, "Saint ......"

He thought that Yang Guang had made a mistake and said the wrong name for a while, but the soldiers ignored it, and the two who came up held Liu Fan down and were about to drag him out.

"Holy ......" Liu Fan said sadly: "Why does the Holy Lord want to behead the ministers, is it possible that there is a capital crime for being loyal to the monarch and patriotism?" ”

Yang Guanghuo Ran stood up, pointed at Liu Fan angrily and said, "I want to cut you into ten or eight sections to relieve the hatred in my heart!" If you are loyal and patriotic, how can you frame Xiao Buyi? Xiao Buyi traveled thousands of miles, worked tirelessly to report the news, and went through hardships, but was framed by villains like you, if I don't kill you, how can I serve the public? If I don't kill you, won't I chill the hearts of those who are truly faithful? Xiao Buyi was loyal, and almost shot the dog thief of Duji, saving face for my Da Sui, you are not blind, don't you see? ”

Liu Fan shouted injustice, but Yang Guang did not allow him to defend anymore, several soldiers dragged Liu Fan out, and after a while, there was a miserable scream, and the soldiers presented Liu Fan's bloody head with a tray, Yang Guang just glanced at it, waved his hand and said: "Throw it out to feed the dog." ”

The ministers were shocked, Xiao Buyi still didn't have any expression, but Queen Xiao nodded and smiled, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Guang was a little tired, and he didn't say much, let alone Xiao Buyi, and said straightforwardly: "Ming said that I will personally go up to the city tower to appease the soldiers, and you will accompany you." ”

**Outside Yanmen City, the Turkic soldiers and horses shouted, making a mess, they attacked Yanmen City, in addition to besieging Yanmen City, more but took turns to go out to plunder and loot, Yanmen County has been in dire straits.

Shibi Khan didn't have any smugness, he finally found that sometimes a lot of people does not necessarily lead to success, at least for the Yanmen City in front of him, he has no way at all.

Yang Guang hid in Yanmen City and did not show his head, fortunately, he knew that Yang Guang was in the city, and if he captured Yang Guang, he would not only be able to gain a great reputation and stabilize his power, but also get an unimaginable mountain of gold, otherwise most of them would have given up.

The Turkic soldiers are only good at horse warfare, not long siege cities, simple siege tools for the Yanmen City in front of them, it is really no different from suicide, there are more dead and wounded, the tribes are less motivated, more hesitation, after all, they are seeking wealth, watching others to rob the happy, the cavalry besieging the city is clamoring to rob all day, so if it goes on, it may not have any effect if it goes on for a year.

"Coward." When Shibi Khan spit out these two words, it seemed to scold Yang Guang, and it was like a shadow in his heart for many years, looking at the tall and majestic and impassable Yanmen City, where there was his lifelong enemy, at least he thought so.

Since he was a child, he aimed to defeat Yang Guang, and the grassland people died of heavy soldiers, and died of shame, but his father died of illness. His father's pride in his life was to rely on the forces of the Great Sui, drive Dulan and Datou Khan away, and take the steppe people to live a few years of peace, but in the eyes of Shibi, this is a lifetime of shame.

When he worshipped, he saw the flying and domineering look of the Central Plains people, and saw his father's humble and lowly expression, he was like a needle pierced in his chest, he had been planning for a long time this time, just to capture this lifelong enemy, and wanted to see if Yang Guang was still so arrogant and uninhibited under his horsewhip!

The forty-one cities of Yanmen County have been captured by them in just a few days, and they have already captured thirty-nine of them, except for Laoxian and Yanmen City, which are currently under their control.

He had never worried that Laoxian would send troops to attack him, and that was also a coward, the corners of Shibi Khan's mouth showed a hint of contempt when he thought so. It's not bad for him to play the tricks used by the Central Plains people, I think back then, the emperor of the Central Plains always gave and asked for in order to get the support of the Turks. During the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou dynasties, they were all competing to present jewelry, goods and princesses, hoping to get the help of the Turks, otherwise the original wooden pole khan would not be proud to say, I have two filial sons in the south, and they will give whatever I want.

Thinking of this, Shibi Khan proudly clenched the horsewhip, he felt that the wooden pole Khan was the real hero in the grassland, and he also longed to be such a hero, and at the moment, it seemed that he was not far from this goal.

There are many people who want to be the emperor, there is one in Cuixian, and there are many who want to betray the Great Sui and establish themselves as kings, at least for now, he knows that three or four so-called gate valves in the Central Plains have secretly begun to contact him, hoping to get his support in the future.

The people of the Central Plains hope to be unified and stable, but the gate valve of the Central Plains wants to profit from the chaos, and he, it doesn't matter who is the emperor, who can give him the most jewelry and goods, the princess and beauty are the most important. Right now, as long as he grabbed Yang Guang, the rest of the things looked like a flat horse, he had taken the most important step, but he was stuck here and couldn't move. He had to solve the battle here quickly, otherwise he wouldn't have a better chance to catch Yang Guang as soon as reinforcements from the counties of the Central Plains arrived.

But now, when Shibi Khan thought of this, he looked up at Yanmen City and frowned.

"Khan." A soldier came from afar and said excitedly: "The siege tools have arrived, we have collected the defense tools of the rest of the cities in Yanmen County, some of them can be used, and all the subordinates have been transported over." Khan, you see, those stone-throwing machines are the things that are commonly used in the Central Plains. ”

When Shibi Khan saw the bullet machines dragging over from afar, he couldn't help laughing loudly: "It looks like God really helps me!" ”

Yang Guang doesn't feel that God is helping him, he now feels that he is a son of heaven, even if God is starting to go against him.

When the stone ballimples were approaching Yanmen City, Yang Guang didn't know it, so when he was at the head of the city, he was still very calm. He finally humbled himself once in his life, listened to the advice of Fan Zigai, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and personally walked up to the city gate tower to boost morale.

He was actually very unwilling, and he didn't want to say in front of the soldiers that he wouldn't fight Liaodong, and he even felt that his face was heavily sucked, and it hurt badly.

Since when did it start to be smooth, Yang Guang stood on the high platform, but he was in a reverie, this kind of humility seems to have never been an emperor, right? When he was the king of Jin, he had great ambitions, but there were a group of people around him who could say it, Yang Su, Gao Ying, Zhang Heng, and Xue Daoheng were all people he respected back then, but now they are all dead, and these people who can say it finally died in his hands. Although Yang Su died of illness, if he hadn't been urged three times, he wouldn't have died so much. Now the old minister next to him is also a Yuwenshu, he is not stupid, he knows that Yuwenshu may have received some money from the envoys, but what is this? He never expected his ministers to be honest and honest, what he needed was that these ministers could do something, some people could not do it, and they were destined to get more things than others, such as himself, such as Yu Wenshu, and that Xiao Buyi! Even if he didn't expect that Du Ji, a lowly person who bowed down to him when he worshipped back then, would lead the army south to attack him, how could Yu Wenshu have imagined? He knew that Yuwenshu would never betray him, and what Duji could give Yuwenshu, he had already given Yuwenshu. If you are in your seventies, can you live for a few years, and do you still want to be an emperor?

Being an emperor, tired, when Yang Guang sighed in his heart, he looked sad!

The ministers and generals all looked at each other, not knowing what the Son of Heaven was thinking.

Looking at the familiar or unfamiliar faces below, Yang Guang sneered in his heart, no one can understand him, and no one can know his majestic ambitions, the vertical son does not conspire, he has lofty ambitions, but unfortunately he is not understood by the laity!

When he said in hatred that he would not attack Liaodong, there was a burst of cheers below, but Yang Guang was a little dazed, this is the soldier he relied on, didn't any of them know what they thought?

"You must do your duty and defend the city with all your heart, so that the Turks will know the bravery of my Great Sui generals and not lose face, well," Yang Guang pondered for a while, and felt that only he valued face the most, and the generals should not consider this, "If you can save it this time, when the reinforcements come, I will definitely give you and other officials and knights, not to mention the generals, there will be a reward!" ”

Seeing that the generals under him were all happy, Yang Guang knew that he had said what they thought, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart, when did he figure out the minds of others? But this time he couldn't help but figure it out, and he realized that the thing that this emperor had in common with others was that they only had one life! When Liu Fan framed Xiao Buyi, he actually understood everything, if it was in the past, when he was still in the Eastern Capital, he would reprimand Liu Fan a few words, and then comfort Xiao Buyi a few words, but now it is no longer possible.

When Xiao Buyi said that he had nothing to say, even Yang Guang couldn't help but palpitate, he knew that Xiao Buyi had already escaped his anger, and he was a little afraid of Xiao Buyi's anger at that moment.

Yang Guang finally discovered that this Xiao Buyi had changed a lot, becoming more calm and more elusive, and he couldn't see Xiao Buyi's thoughts. But it can't be denied that Xiao Buyi is not bad to himself, and not everyone can do it after all to report the news, but he just has a bad temper. I think that at the beginning, Yu Wenhua and he was also framed, Xiao Buyi was also angry and rhetorical, and made a generous statement, but the strength was not as good as I had nothing to say five words, he knew that if he didn't kill Liu Fan, Xiao Buyi would not have nothing to say in the future, but would not talk to him again, and now is the time to employ people, Xiao Buyi can't go. When weighing the weight, Yang Guang didn't wait for Xiao Buyi to get angry, he had already beheaded Liu Fan in anger, he appeased Xiao Buyi, and also vented his anger for a long time!

"The merits of your rank this time will be verified by me personally, and I will definitely not allow the scribes to play tricks and pens to swallow up the merits of your peers," Yang Guang continued to appease and encourage the soldiers, "The soldiers who have made great contributions to defending the city, those who do not have official positions are directly awarded the official positions of the six grades, silk and satin, and those who already have official positions are promoted in turn, I will take the sky as a lesson and will never break my word." ”

The soldiers shouted long live long live long live, and it seemed that they couldn't wait for the Turks to come and attack the city.

Yang Guang was quite satisfied with their performance, nodded and said: "I will issue an edict immediately, and I will not conquer Liaodong in the future, but specialize in Turks, so I can relax for the time being." ”

The soldiers cheered again, but not long after the cheering, a dull trumpet sounded outside the city, and the desolation foreshadowed the terrible things that would soon follow.

Lai Hu'er grabbed Yang Guang's side early, and said loudly: "Shengshang, the Turkic soldiers have begun to attack the city, please go back and rest for the time being, and leave the matter of defending the city to the old minister." ”

Yang Guangcheng looked over and couldn't help but change his face when he saw the bullet stone trucks approaching the city gate!

When Laihu'er saw the bullet car, he also had a big headache, and he didn't know that these Turks couldn't make this kind of thing, and they didn't bother to develop these, at most they made a ladder or something, which was already a great achievement. Most of these stone carts were collected by Turkic soldiers from the neighboring cities, and he was not afraid of stone bullets, and when he saw the stone bullets, Lai Hu'er had already thought that most of the cities in Yanmen County had been fallen by the Turkic soldiers, and Shibi Khan had already made up his mind to capture Yanmen City!

When the siege order was issued, the Turkic soldiers advanced the trebuchet, shouted and threw stones, and a large stone roared to the city, smashing towards Yanmen City, Yang Guang went down to the city early, wondering that he could still walk down.

The fall of the big stone 'ping pong' around him smashed countless big pits. Some of the big rocks fell on the roofs of the people in the city, and they screamed and screamed.

Yang Guang almost walked into the city by sticking to the city gate, and the guards in all directions were like facing a great enemy, paying close attention to the big stone above their heads, just afraid of hurting the saint. Xiao Buyi also followed Yang Guang's side, thinking about when to say about Li Jing.

Now is the best opportunity to bargain for Li Jing, and he doesn't want to miss it.

The child's exclamation suddenly sounded in the distance, and Yang Guanghuo Ran raised his head, his face had changed. A child in brocade clothes was running in this direction, and several soldiers ran from afar, shouting something, and a big stone flying from the sky smashed on the child's side, and there was a loud bang. One of the soldiers couldn't dodge, but he was hit in the leg by a boulder and screamed loudly.

Although the stone did not hurt the child, the child sat down on the ground in fright, and although he did not cry, he was so frightened that he could not move.

"Go and save King Zhao back." Yang Guang shouted loudly, losing his normalcy.

He has a total of three sons, Yuande Prince Yang Zhao died early, Qi King Yang Xuan is already a dou who can't be supported, and his relationship is estranged, and now only the third son Zhao Wang Yang Gao pinned Yang Guang's hope, although he is still less than ten years old, he can be smart and filial since he was a child, although he was not born to Queen Xiao, but he was very favored by Yang Guang, and the child of this brocade is Yang Gao!

The guards hesitated for a moment, and the sky was full of boulders, and rushing out might be to die! It's just that the emperor's order is difficult to disobey, and the guards finally stepped forward, but a figure next to Yang Guang rushed out, hugged Yang Gao, quickly withdrew to the root of the wall, stretched out his hand to put down Yang Gao, and stood aside.

Yang Guang glanced at Xiao Buyi and was moved in his heart, but Yang Gao cried out with a 'wow' and threw himself into Yang Guang's arms, "Father, it's okay if you're fine." I heard the trumpets of the Turks and knew that they were going to attack the city, but you came to look for you in the tower, and I didn't think ......."

The voice that followed was hindered by choking and fright, Yang Guang swallowed back the reprimand that was about to be spoken, hugged his son, burst into tears, and muttered something to himself, Yang Gao raised his head in amazement, his eyes were full of puzzlement, but he didn't ask. Others can't hear it, Xiao Buyi's ears are very strong now, but he can hear it clearly.

What Yang Guang said is, what did I do wrong, even my son wants to betray me?!

Xiao Buyi suddenly, he already knew that Yang Guang suspected that Yang Mian had a problem, and suddenly saw that Yang Guang's sideburns had starry hair, and there was a deep frown on the corner of his eyes and forehead.

Yang Guang cried, for his great cause to fail, for his danger, for his betrayal, and for his descendants to lose their lives. Yang Guang understands everything, but he can't say anything, being an emperor is lonely!

"Holy Lord, the Turkic soldiers are no longer throwing stones, please quickly return to the city to rest." Xiao Yu said urgently.

Yang Guang suddenly turned around and said angrily: "What are you going to do when you go back to rest, sooner or later, it will be ......."

The voice stopped abruptly, Yang Guang had already wiped the tears on his face with his son's brocade clothes, and he had already regained his majesty in a moment, "Xiao Buyi, you saved King Zhao, you should take the first credit." ”

Xiao Buyi said indifferently: "Thank you." ”

"You are very smart, every time you have many tricks, I don't know what way to retreat from the enemy this time?"

Xiao Buyi didn't wait for an answer, Xiao Yu had already said: "Holy Lord, Wei Chen thought of a plan last night. ”

"What is it?" Yang Guang grabbed Xiao Yu and asked eagerly.

"Has the Holy One forgotten Princess Yicheng?" Xiao Yu said: "Princess Yicheng is a Turkic Kedun, and she is also quite powerful in the grassland, but after all, she is based on the Great Sui and has always been loyal to the Sui family. If the Holy Lord can find someone to inform Princess Yicheng, I don't think she will sit idly by and ignore the siege of Yanmen. ”

He said that it was a good strategy, but Yang Guang put down his hand in disappointment, shook his head and said, "Do you know how difficult it is to kill it?" It will take nearly a month to go back and forth from Yanmen to Kedun, although this strategy is good, but the time is not enough. Seeing Xiao Buyi silently, Yang Guang asked expectantly: "Xiao Buyi, what plan do you have?" ”

Xiao Buyi said in a deep voice: "The people who gave the marriage were me and Li Juncheng, and the saint only saw Buyi coming, why didn't he ask where Li Juncheng was?" ”

Yang Guang's eyes lit up, "Did he go to Taiyuan Dongdu to invite troops?" ”

"Li Juncheng led hundreds of troops, and the target was huge, and it was not easy to break through the Turkic blockade and go south. As for the matter of inviting soldiers, in fact, when Weichen arrived in Mayi, he had already asked the post officer to do it. Xiao Buyi said in a deep voice: "But even if there is no Weichen to send a post officer, the 400,000 Turkic troops go south, and Yanmen City is besieged, this matter is not trivial, and it is absolutely impossible for the Turks to hide the news." Now that the news must have arrived in Taiyuan, even if you don't invite troops, how can the soldiers and horses of the counties sit idly by and ignore it when they know that the Holy Lord is besieged? ”

Yang Guang nodded slowly, a little settled in his heart, and felt that Xiao Buyi was analyzing and reasoning, and it was the same thing, "Whoever comes to save the driver first will be rewarded, and those who don't come to rescue the driver will be heavily responsible." But where is Li Jing, he has to do something, right? ”

Xiao Yu's expression moved slightly, "Shaoqing, could it be that Li Juncheng has already gone to find Princess Yicheng?" ”

Yang Guang was shocked and grabbed Xiao Buyi's arm, "Is this true?" Seeing Xiao Buyi nodding, Yang Guang laughed loudly and said: "Buyi is really the first loyal minister of my Great Sui, and he has been planning for a long time in silence. ”

Yang Guang raised his fingers and counted, and said in surprise: "If Li Jing has already traveled at the same time as Buyi is going south, then it is likely that he has already met Princess Yicheng at this time, so we have news in less than a month?" After receiving Xiao Buyi's affirmative answer, Yang Guang held Xiao Buyi's hands tightly with both hands, and said excitedly: "Buyi, what reward do you want, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Xiao Buyi was still calm, "Holy Lord, the reward is not in a hurry, and we can't pin all our hopes on Princess Yicheng, and now we should be in a hurry to save the king of Qinwang in each county." It's just that the Turkic army is large, with more than 400,000 soldiers, even if the soldiers in Taiyuan, Loufu and other places are combined, it is difficult to be the enemy. ”

Yang Guang heard that Xiao Buyi and Li Jing's backhand, and Princess Yicheng might also come forward, so Fang Cai was still in the mood to seek death, and this moment had long been left behind. For him, falling into the hands of the Turkic soldiers, even if he lives in shame, he is considered dead, but now he doesn't have to die, and his mood is much better, "What does that cloth mean?" ”

"Whether it is the transfer of troops in the eastern capital or the recruitment of various counties, morale is the most important. Fan Shangshu also said that the people are worried, and they are only afraid that the saint will invade Liaodong again, and it will inevitably be slow to respond. If the saint sends an edict out and declares that he will not conquer Liaodong, the people everywhere will be eager to help the emergency, and even if the elite soldiers of the eastern capital have not arrived, why should the Turkic soldiers be afraid? If the Holy One agrees, he can fall from the city wall tonight, wear the clothes of the Turkic soldiers, find a way to blend into the Turkic army, and then blend out. Buyi went all the way south, knowing that the Turkic soldiers had always been scattered and did not know each other, and this method should be feasible. ”

Yang Guang thought for a long time, and finally nodded: "Buyi is loyal and patriotic, but I can feel the heavens, just like you said, as for who will go......"

Before his words landed, Xiao Yu had already hurriedly said: "Holy Lord, Buyi must not go, I am only afraid that he has been familiar with the Turkic soldiers, and this trip is very dangerous." ”

Yang Guang actually nodded, "What you said is right, I am not going to let Buyi take risks, and Buyi will stay in Yanmen City to escort him." Quickly go find the general, let him choose twenty elite soldiers, and prepare to break through at night and announce the edict to the world. ”

The sky was overcast, the wind was blowing, and the sky was full of sand.

The green grass on the grassland is also covered with a layer of gray, and at a glance, it is full of desolation.

The grass is desolate, but the people are terrified, and Temur never thought that he would be so embarrassed.

Qi Jin is a precious title, the patriarch of the grassland tribe is called Qi Jin, although compared to the little Khan, Khan, it is still not enough, but in the clan can also call the wind and rain, the name Temur is taken out, and stomping feet can also have a little weight in Tiele.

But now Temur felt that he was fluttering and did not know where he was, his face was covered with dust, his eyes were red and swollen, and he had not slept well for two days and two nights.

He rode his horse and galloped, only feeling a little confused, not knowing how the nightmare began, let alone when the nightmare would end, all because he was obsessed with a demon on the grassland.

With only a dozen or so of his men alone, Temur wanted to cry without tears. He is a Tu Rusu Qi Jin, in the Tiele tribe is also very prestigious, this time the Khan summoned soldiers and horses to the south, he only sent a few sons with the elite soldiers in the clan to go, he is old, I don't want to rob anything for a living, I just want to live comfortably.

He was on the side of the Duluo River, originally preparing to reinforce Qi Jishe, but he felt that Qi Ji Sheh was really a bit of a fuss, and Qi Ji She's task was to lead the three thousand troops to attack the camp of the Great Sui Marriage Envoy, and he was waiting on the other side of the river, if anyone fled here, one could not let go.

Temur waited by the Duluo River, but he rested early, and asked his men to sentry, saying that when he came over, he said hello to him, and he also brought hundreds of people, all of whom were his cronies, and they felt that they could be ten with one.

Temur was not woken up by his men, but by the screams of his men!

When he got out of the camp, he saw that his men were being beaten by a group of opponents, and he was horrified, he had never seen such a terrible opponent.

The number of opponents is actually not very large, even less than his men, but the opponent, under the leadership of a general with a mixed iron gun, can beat you alone with 300 people!

This is a very strange feeling, it is obvious that the other party has few people, but it can make people feel that they are besieging, Temur's men were quickly scattered by the opponent's impact, Temur saw that the situation was not good, and fled on his horse.

The general's name was Li Jing, and on the way to escape for his life, Temur finally understood who his opponent was, and also knew that the 3,000-strong army of Qi Jishe had been wiped out.

Li Jing, when he thought of this name, Temur was a palpitation, a pinprick pain in his heart, and he could vaguely hear the sound of iron hooves behind him in his ears, I don't know if it was real or hallucination. When he turned back, he saw only gray weather, and no pursuers, but he really didn't have the courage to stop.

He ran all the way north, turned east, and finally turned around and vomited like a clan, he thought this was his base camp, Li Jing categorically did not dare to go deep alone, but his ass was not yet hot, and the warriors of the clan had not yet been assembled, Li Jing led the iron cavalry to kill in, and burned his clan, making him want to cry without tears. No matter how brave the warriors are, they are vulnerable under Li Jing's iron cavalry, but the braver elite soldiers went south to Zihe, and in a hurry Temur created a history, a big clan in Tiele, Turusu was easily defeated and occupied by hundreds of people, he gave up the base camp and continued to flee.

He didn't know why Li Jing was desperately chasing, but he knew that he had to escape, and in the incessant screams in his ears, he felt that if he didn't escape, he would lose his surname. He fled from Turusu to Sijie, and then entered Fuluo, where the clan was originally peaceful, but because of his arrival, he was disturbed, and now the target is his old friend Huxue tribe!

Li Jing's fire burned from east to west, covering thousands of miles, and it had already put the grassland tribe in danger and hid in the east province. Temur wanted to cry without tears, and he couldn't figure it out, it stands to reason that Li Jing should be the target of hunting and killing in the grassland, but now it seems that he has become a murderous demon. Don't let others say intercept him, even if you dodge, you can't hide from him.

Temur knew that he had a long fire behind his buttocks, and that it would burn wherever he went, but he couldn't care much about staying alive.

When he rushed into the Huxue tribe with the remaining dozen or so men, Temur jumped off his horse and shouted, "Puraba, Puraba! Go and find Prapa. ”

Purapa was burly, with a beard on his face, and walked out of the tent with a very manly face, and scolded with a smile: "When will you kid be free to come and see me?" ”

The combined age of the two is over 100, but it does not prevent them from teasing each other.

"Purapa, find a man, find a very strong man." Temur was terrified.

Purapa touched his beard and laughed, "When did you kid change his taste and start looking for strong men?" ”

The shepherds around him were all laughing, full of joy, and only Temur and his dozen or so men were not smiling. The dozen or so subordinates looked like they were going to be able to fall asleep on horseback, and they had to fight with the horses standing and sleeping, and they didn't look up, and let them call for help, they were numb.

"It's not like that, it's not like that." Temur stomped his feet repeatedly, stretched out his finger to the sky, and foamed at the mouth: "You will regret it, you will regret it." ”

Prapa reached out and touched Temur's forehead, "Temur, are you haunted by evil spirits?" ”

Temur pushed away Purapa's hand and said angrily: "Lao Tzu is haunted by evil spirits, if you don't look for a man, I'm afraid that you will also be haunted." ”

Seeing that he was a little out of his mind, Prapa sighed and said, "What you need now is not a man, but a doctor, go find ......."

"Don't go to the doctor, Li Jing brought someone to kill him, he is a demon of the grassland!" Temur stamped his feet and shouted, "Go and gather all the strong men in your tribe to come out." ”

Prapa asked strangely, "Who is Li Jing?" ”

In the midst of the inquiry, there was a sudden sound of hooves in the distance, as tight as a dense drum, stepping on a person's chest, making it impossible to breathe, Temur finally came to his senses and said miserably: "It's late." ”

When he had finished speaking, he jumped on the back of the horse like a rabbit and galloped on it. More than a dozen of his subordinates were originally drowsy, but when they heard the iron hooves, they were all in good spirits, and they followed Temur through Huxue's camp and galloped eastward with their eyes open.

When Puraba heard the urgency of the iron hoof, his face changed greatly, and the people in the tribe shouted and shouted, and some warriors had rushed out, all of them did not know what was happening.

Immediately after that, Purapa saw an unforgettable scene, a black dragon flew over, with a little red scales on its body, and the black dragon passed by, the fire soared into the sky, and the exclamations were endless.

It's just the kung fu of tea, and the entire Hu Xue clan has fallen into the clutches of the black dragon, the black dragon is braving flames, invincible, and the warriors have been scattered and defeated without any room to fight back.

Prapa was shocked and angry, but he had time to pick up a gun and meet him, and when he saw the black-faced general, he was greeted with a shot in the chest.

The general on the opposite side swung his iron spear, and Ge flew Purpa's spear, and by the way, he whipped him out, lifting his weight lightly.

"Who are you?" Pura rolled on the ground and vomited blood, but he didn't forget to ask.

"I'm Li Jing!" The general mixed the iron gun and replied softly.
