Chapter 114

Expellation

Sunrise Dongfang also took a sip of water, and took over the topic again: "My son-in-law withdrew to the country, and it is not idle and nothing, when I do it again, I will go south to Tibet!" I just don't know Nanli's side......

Master Ban spoke, pursed his shriveled lips, and slowly responded: "Nanli's only chance to break the Tibetan army is only to send troops to the Great Khan, Hu Chengxiao will not fail to see this weight, the day the Uighurs wave the army to Tibet, that is, when Nanli gathers all his strength to counterattack Fangou, this major Khan can be assured."

Nanli has been fighting hard to resist the invasion of Tibet, but it is still impossible to talk about a counteroffensive. The Imperial City garrison and the heavy troops of Beiguan have not been used, and these military horses are still on important duty, so they dare not use them easily, and more importantly, Nanli can't see the 'opportunity' to break the enemy, and can't see the chance to make a desperate bet.

Sunrise Dongfang nodded, suddenly diverted the topic again, and asked Xie Zimiao: "You came up with these things yourself?" ”

Inexplicable question, but not difficult to understand:

The worse the coalition forces beat the dogs, the happier Jingtai became, and if the coalition forces were helping Dayan kill wolves, the Uighurs would not care about how much advantage they took and how much territory they seized from the steppe... When the wolf is killed, the Uighurs, who are very expended, should face the 'beast' alone;

The Tibetan Plateau, which was incorporated into the territory of the Great Yan and became the most powerful empire in Middle-earth today, was the real confidant of the Uighurs, and if Sunrise East wanted to keep its ancestral inheritance, it must find a way to disintegrate it. Fortunately, Yan Guogang had just taken Tubo in his hand and had not been able to hold it tightly, otherwise Tubo would not have attacked Nanli in order to reduce internal pressure. However, there was not much time left for the Uighurs, and a fool could understand that the longer Jingtai and Yanding had to control the Tibetans, the more stable they would be, and the Uighurs would have to take advantage of the internal pressure in the Tibetans to strike at them in time to completely blow up and disrupt the plateau, which was the simplest, most direct, and most effective way: the Tubo had become a knife in the hands of the Yan Emperor, so they would interrupt the knife while it was not too strong;

Now the Tibetan is very difficult to fight, because there is still the Yan country behind the plateau, and the Uighurs and Yan do not border, but the plateau is adjacent to the eastern soil, and it is not difficult to imagine that when the Fanzi can not resist and is beaten into the inland of the plateau by the Uighur army, the Tibetan will definitely open its eastern frontier and enlarge the Yan's troops and horses to enter the country, and then the Uighur southern expeditionary army will be flanked in both the front and the east, and it is difficult to have a chance of victory. However, in the near future, Dayan will be caught in a fierce battle with the dogs, and its support for the plateau will inevitably weaken......

In the final analysis, the real key lies in the fact that Jingtai and Yanding did not know that 'the Uighurs already knew that Tibet had become the territory of the Yan Kingdom', and that the Uighurs, who did not know about this, would happily carve up the Inurong with the Great Yan. But the Great Khan, who learned the truth, had a good chance to take the Yan State into the grassland and fall into a big war, and the forces of the desert turned the spearhead to deal with the attack on Tibet;

Because the Great Living Buddha died violently, Tubo was 'out of balance of yin and yang, qi and blood were irritable', it was 'sick', and Chai Cuo Tata waged war against Nanli just to give

'Healing', external wars and internal strife, this is a domineering prescription, if it goes well, all diseases will be eliminated, and if the war is unfavorable, the old and new diseases will break out together. The Great Yan was dragged into the grassland battlefield and could not take care of the plateau for a while, and the Uighurs attacked from the north and Nanli met from the south with all their might.

All these things were all thought up by Xie Zimiao.

Regarding the Great Khan's question, Xie Zimiao just smiled, shook his head and did not answer, she didn't care about other people's praise, honor, or credit.

At this time, Master Ban spoke again, and his voice was lifeless: "You really haven't thought about forming an alliance?" Ally with the Inujun. ”

When one side rises strongly, the other parties form a temporary alliance...... In ancient times, it was not uncommon for Middle Earth to compete for hegemony, and it was not uncommon for two weak, three weak and one strong to fight for hegemony, and to form an alliance with the dog Rong to inform the big single of the truth and act in unison, which is the most beneficial way to deal with the current situation. The Great Khan, King Baiyin, and Xie Zimiao are not stupid people, and it stands to reason that they should have thought of this a long time ago, but after talking about it for most of the day, no one mentioned it at all.

Several leaders glanced at each other, and King Baiyin shook his head first, and his voice was solemn: "Sha Min would rather die than ally with the dogs." ”

The Sand tribe only has this sentence, and there is no other explanation.

It was Mr. Bo who was talking on the side of Xie Men's lackey, and he smiled: "Since Lord Xie passed away, we big dogs and small dogs... Oh, it's not us, it's us, we, the big dogs and the little dogs, who are all left in our lives, the only thing left in our lives is the wish to kill the faint king to avenge the adults... However, although we are the thieves of Dayan, they are also Han people, and the Han people have suffered from wolves for hundreds of years, and I don't know how many Han fathers and elders have died in the hands of wolves. ”

With a relaxed smile and an easy-going tone, Mr. Bo explained the truth clearly unhurriedly, in fact, even if he didn't say what others could understand, he was too talkative and wordy.

Sunrise East also said: "Let's dog... Oh, it's not us, it's our dogs...", the Great Khan laughed, and stretched out his hand to Mr. Silk: "The Uighurs' attitude towards the dogs is the same as the Han people's attitude towards the wolves, and my words have been said by him. Besides, if I really run to form an alliance with the wolf, Sha Min and the big dog and puppy of the Xie family have to turn their faces with me immediately, and lose their true brother for a fake friend? Don't do it, don't do it. ”

Master Ban pursed his mouth, looked disapproving, and turned his head to look at Xie Zimiao, although Mr. Bo had already expressed his attitude on behalf of Xie Men's lackey, he still wanted to hear what she had to say.

It's a pity that Xie Zimiao didn't meet the old man's gaze, she was lowering her head and being stunned... Suddenly, inexplicably, she missed Song Yang a little.

Song Yang passed down two orders. The first order is very strange, the purchase and requisition of white cloth and white paper, the more the better, there is no upper limit; The second command is even more striking...... He's withdrawing his troops!

When he learned that the enemy's main force was approaching and Qingyang was facing the test of a real battle, Song Yang was about to withdraw his troops: Liu Jiajun, Cicada Yasha, princess, county lord and others withdrew from Qingyang.

Although Song Yang himself and the Shanximan, Shilao, and Uighur guards remained, the order of the two most elite and ferocious armed men in the fiefdom to leave Qingyang and not participate in the battle still made Lord Liu Hou's heart tremble.

Half of it was self-comforting, and half of it was asking for the opinions of his colleagues, Liu Hou said to Ge Sima: "Chang Chunhou must have a plan to retreat from the enemy in his heart, and now transfer the elite out of Qingyang... Could it be that Hou Ye wants to copy Fanzi's back road? ”

"Would you use a few thousand people to copy the back of hundreds of thousands?" Ge Sima glared at him, and was about to continue to count when he suddenly remembered that he was a subordinate, and hurriedly coughed twice to cover up the past: "Xia Guan thinks that Chang Chunhou transferred the elite out of Qingyang in order to preserve his strength. ”

Ge Sima sighed: "Actually, it's no wonder... Qingyang is the last and only destination for adults and officials, but in the eyes of the court and the Hou Ye, it is just a city and a place, even if the fall of Qingyang is not the end of the world, the battle against Fanzi has to continue, and it is reasonable for the Hou Ye to withdraw the main force to retain the elite in order to calculate later. ”

The corners of Lord Liu's eyes jumped, and his mouth moved, but he still didn't say anything after all, just sighed heavily.

In the following days, Qingyang was still busy preparing for the battle; The four city gates were opened, and the last evacuation and forced evacuation were carried out: the old and weak women and children all left the city, and the young and strong, who were the eldest or only son in the family, also left the labor force and went with their families, all of them were evacuated to several small towns in the rear, and it is worth mentioning that in the end, some people remained......

In addition to the number of far more than the previous 100,000 forwards, the main force of Fanzi has several differences: with heavy weapons, with a large number of siege equipment, ladders, door hammers, huge stone throwing arms and long-range crossbows, etc., and even the towers of the city have brought more than a dozen; The army with a large number of slaves, the scale is good, according to the observation of the horses, the number of slaves alone is more than 50,000, no need to ask, once the enemy begins to attack the city, all these Nanli people will become the enemy's advance, Lord Liu's most worried about the 'drive' is coming; in addition, the main force of the army is mainly infantry, in any case, people's self-control is much stronger than horses, even if the Liu family army is still there, the effect on the enemy will be greatly reduced.

Hearing about these things, Lord Liu sighed and sighed. Song Yang is still the same, going to the city to help with work, talking and laughing with his companions when he rests, and running to Master Zhou's house from time to time to eat...... Not only was he not too nervous, but he was more relaxed than when he dealt with the 100,000 advance dispatches, not because he was not in control, but because he was no longer worried: the county lord and the princess were sent away.

The main force of Fanzi marched steadily, and the marching speed was not too fast, but it was a total of five days' journey, and no matter how slow they walked, they would not be delayed for too long, and on the eighth day from the time they left the tenement building, at noon the army finally entered the sight of the defenders at the head of the city.

Not long after he appeared, a series of horns sounded in the enemy's formation, and the soldiers had already prepared, and under the guidance of the order, a team of troops cruised out of the main formation, scattered and advanced, and began to encircle Qingyang. Song Yang, Jin Ma and others all climbed to the top of the city and quietly watched the enemy's movements.

Although he was an enemy who was not in the same life and death, Song Yang still couldn't help but admire in his heart, Fanzi's army was strong, and the soldiers of each team acted neatly and strictly obeyed the order. Jin Ma snorted coldly on the sliding rod and said, "No." ”

Alihan also nodded, and the Chinese jerkily echoed: "No." ”

It's not that the enemy won't succeed, but Qingyang's counterattack plan to take the opportunity to send troops won't work... The siege of Fanzihui was expected by Song Yang and others, and they planned to send strong soldiers to rush and ask for some bargains when the enemy was scattering in formation, but Fanzi deployed carefully in advance, and the teams responded to each other and relied on each other in the march, leaving no chance for Qingyang.

Song Yang smiled: "If it doesn't work, forget it, let's endure it." After thinking about it, he said, "Kill some cattle and sheep, and give everyone a good meal at night." ”

At night, the stew in Qingyang City is fragrant, and Fanzi also completed the siege of Qingyang that night, no matter which section of the city wall looks out, there are bonfires in the distance, and the last important town in Western Xinjiang is surrounded by hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

Song Yang Luo Guan, a person with superb eyesight, can also see the letter birds flying in and out of the sky above the enemy camp, and the military orders are endless.

It was late at night, there was no movement after the army laid down the formation, it seemed that there was no plan to attack the city overnight, except for the guards on duty in Qingyang City, everyone else went to rest early, recuperated and waited for the upcoming fierce battle, but the soldiers and the people who stayed behind, even if they were lying on the bed and closing their eyes, they still couldn't sleep, they couldn't tell whether it was nervous or afraid, and the heart in the chest seemed to be held by a pair of big hands, and it was indescribably uncomfortable. may be so depressing that there are auditory hallucinations, and in a trance, everyone faintly heard a burst of humming, the tune is light and pleasant, and people can't help but think of fireworks when they listen to it: spring on spring.

Soon, someone reacted, what kind of auditory hallucination, it was clearly the humming of Chang Chunhou, not very loud but steadily sent into the depths of everyone's ear drums. Song Yang sat on the roof of the Taishou Mansion in the middle of Qingyang City, humming a delightful tune to the moon, Qi Shang Paxia was guarding beside him, yawning vigorously when he was bored, and Song Yang was infected by the two of them and hit several times.

It's been a long night, and I don't know if it's the last night...... Finally, a string of loud horns pierced the darkness, and at dawn, the soldiers came out of the camp and lined up, and Song Yang, dressed in a white robe and carrying a dragon sparrow, led the barbarians to the city and took over the entire section of the city wall facing due west.

The Tibetan army came from the west, and the western section of the city wall of Qingyang City was the main station facing the enemy, and the main attack place of the enemy's expulsion was also the head of this city.

The sound of the horn in other directions gradually fell, but the horn in the western enemy camp was still loud, there was no pre-war negotiation, and there was no need to avoid the prestige style that Fanzi had always liked.

Everyone's faces were frightened, some were crying and some were shouting, and tens of thousands of shouts converged into a noisy and huge wave of voices, rushing towards Xicheng.

Reinforcements from the Marquis of Ivy Chun, fierce birds, barbarians, and the ghost-faced elite army... Everything about the Qingyang garrison, the commander of the Fan army has been rewarded by the striker and understands it clearly, and this time they came prepared.

Of course, the commander of the army is not stupid enough to think that he can capture Qingyang with these slaves armed with wooden sticks, but before using other siege methods, he still has to rush the city first: according to the experience of the commander of the army, these slaves will start to have luck, hoping that the defenders will show mercy, and after a few rounds of arrow rain, this luck will turn into despair, and then into deep resentment, in the madness, they will really be desperate to attack their own city, although there is not much combat power, but even if it is just to consume some of the defenders' physical strength and arrows, it is good.

And the reason for the expulsion is more important is in two words: morale.

Watching Nanli people beat themselves up, and the more they fight, the more crazy they become, Tubo Erlang will laugh and cheer, which greatly boosts morale;

On the other hand, what would it be like for the defenders of Nanli to shoot their own compatriots and kill tens of thousands of people? Painful, tired, irritable...... It will be much easier to attack the city in the future.

The tactics of expulsion have existed since ancient times, and there is no solution and cannot be broken.

Fan soldiers are disposed of.

When the horn sounded and tens of thousands of slaves rushed to Qingyang, a cannon horn shook the sky in Qingyang City!
