Section 196 Confrontation

When Xiao Buyi heard Yang Guang ask him why he came back, he wanted to strangle him.

Yang Guang is not stupid, and it can be seen that he has never quietly eradicated Li Valve, but he is too persistent, and he is so persistent that he even feels that what he wants to do has been successful before he has dealt with it.

He just thought about going out on patrol, just thinking about making peace, just thinking about going to conquer Liaodong as soon as the Turkic matter was decided, but he never thought of the imminent crisis, he might not be able to wait for the expedition to Liaodong again, so he became a prisoner of the Turkic soldiers.

However, there have been many emperors who have been captured by foreigners in history, Yang Guang is not the first, and he will not be the last, perhaps, he can avoid this crisis, but now it has become more and more difficult to resolve the crisis.

Xiao Buyi's horse was useless, and it was useless for him to arrive in time, because all the time was not delayed on the journey, but delayed in constant questioning and discussion, and after listening to Xiao Buyi finish everything simply and clearly, Yang Guang also asked, "Xiao Buyi, what you said is true?" ”

Xiao Buyi was dumbfounded, and said after a while: "What does the saint think?" He asked a rhetorical question, not because of anger, but because of deep sorrow. Yang Guang frowned, but he didn't pay attention to Xiao Buyi's dissatisfaction, but just said to Yuwen: "Yuwen Aiqing, what do you think?" ”

Yu Wenshu raised his head and looked north, and said for a long time: "What Xiao Shaoqing said may be true, although the outpost has not turned around to report the message, but Lao Chen has been observing the sky during this time, and found that the fire is approaching a point, so ......"

Before he finished speaking, Yang Guang suddenly touched the place where he was sitting with his hand, where the silver light was reflected, and frowned and said, "Listen? ”

Yuwenshu and Lai Hu'er listened carefully, and after a while, Lai Hu'er's face suddenly changed, and he actually fell to the ground to listen to the movement, and after a while, Huo Ran got up, and lost his voice: "Shengshang, the old minister heard that there was a large army moving rapidly in this direction, and asked Shengshang to enter the city quickly!" ”

Xiao Buyi was indifferent, sneering in his heart, he already knew that the Turkic army would definitely not be far from here, and it was approaching very quickly, but he didn't want to remind him that sometimes, some people just belong to lazy donkeys, and they don't know the crisis without whipping. He had a keen sense, and he didn't have to lie down to listen to it, he could feel the ground tremble slightly. This is somewhat different from the vibration of the soldiers entering the city, which is a tremor from the ground that only the most discerning person can perceive. What made him strange was that Yang Guang didn't know martial arts, and he seemed to feel the signs of an army coming from afar. The thing that Yang Guang touched felt like it was made of silver foil, did it have the function of sensing?

He went all the way south, first Liu Wuzhou secretly obstructed, then Yang Xuan, the king of Qi, had a ghost in his heart, and now it was Yuwenshu and the envoy's turn to obstruct in many ways, and tried their best to persuade Yang Guang to go north to the Turks.

Xiao Buyi has already understood one thing, that is, not all people think about the people and the Great Sui as much as he does, and by the way, think about Yang Guang. Now that the forces around Yang Guang have fallen apart, the important ministers guarding the frontier may only want to lure the Turkic soldiers south, let Yang Guang be captured, and redivide the forces, so they keep obstructing and destroying the messengers; Yang Guang's biological son doesn't necessarily like his father, the relationship between the two has reached the point of irreconcilability, this father does not die, King Qi will not be the emperor, Yang Guang is strong and strong, it seems that it is not a problem to be the emperor for more than ten years, since the king of Qi can't wait for the normal way, it is possible to pin his hopes on the Turks, and even have secretly colluded, otherwise why is the city peaceful and unguarded, but he can close the city gate and wait for it? Even if it is Yu Wenshu next to Yang Guang, he may not be loyal anymore, he and the envoys are lobbying Yang Guang to go north, who can say that he is tired of this?

This made Xiao Buyi have a doubt, even if the post officers he sent arrived in the counties, could there be soldiers to come and reinforce them? How many ministers who can be loyal to Yang Guang are left, what about Li Yuan, will he come to charge?

Yang Guang finally had a trace of panic, gave up the idea of going to Turks immediately, and ordered to go back to the city.

Fortunately, Laihu'er had already given the order to turn back to Yanmen City, and at this moment, only a few thousand Praetorian Guards were left outside the city, otherwise if more than 10,000 soldiers turned around, they would have become a pot of porridge.

When Yang Guang's cart arrived at the city gate, the tremor in the distance no longer had to be heard on the ground, but could be felt standing on the ground.

The thousands of Praetorian Guards who stayed behind were already panicked, and Yuwenshu followed the holy car, but Laihu'er was the last to press the formation, but he was not alarmed.

It's just that after Yang Guang entered Yanmen City, all the soldiers rushed to the gate of the city in a swarm, and they couldn't restrain Laihu'er, just because all the soldiers heard the rumbling sound from the north, and when they turned their heads to look over, they only saw dust in the distant sky, covering the clouds!

All the soldiers, even if they are fools, know that there are thousands of troops and horses in the north to kill them, and they are waiting for death outside the city, how to flee to the city without their lives!

Xiao Buyi didn't move outside the city, but he sighed in his heart when he saw the sweaty order from Laihu'er. The chaos could have been avoided, but all the time was wasted in suspicion and hesitation. Although Lai Hu'er is a famous general of the Great Sui, he can't give orders, and his teachings are unclear, which is still a little worse than Li Jing's unified army.

The city gate was so wide that the crowd flocked to it, but it was blocked, and some people were squeezed off their horses, trampled and screamed, and the chaos was terrible.

"Enter the city in order, and if there is a scramble, cut it immediately." Xiao Buyi suddenly shouted loudly, stretched out his hand to pick up his bow, and shot an arrow, nailed to the city gate, with a loud 'collapse', and the arrow cluster trembled slightly.

The guards were stunned for a moment, and Lai Hu'er finally came to his senses, and reached out to take off his bow and arrow like Xiao Buyi, but it was an arrow that killed a scrambling soldier, and said angrily: "Where is the camp officer? Those who rush into the city will be killed. ”

The majesty of Laihu'er is still there, all the soldiers have calmed down, and the rear team is afraid that they will die first if they don't enter the city, and they no longer move forward bravely.

The rumbling sound was even more urgent, Laihu'er glanced at Xiao Buyi, and when he saw that he was still calm, he couldn't help nodding secretly, and said in his heart that although Xiao Buyi was young, thousands of horses and thousands of troops came to report the news, but he was really full of courage.

Before the Turkic soldiers arrived, a horse came galloping, and when Laihu'er saw the man, he shouted: "Liu Fan, what are you doing here, King Qi?" ”

Liu Fan was breathless, but said: "Come on, my lord, fortunately you have entered the city, the king of Qi has probed the Turkic soldiers to come, let his subordinates risk death to report, please go into the city to talk." ”

He spoke anxiously, not glancing at Xiao Buyi, and asked Laihu'er, "King Qi, how is it now?" ”

"The King of Qi originally wanted to risk his life to join the Shengshang, but was desperately held back by his subordinates," Liu Fan did not leave his words, appearing loyal, "Later, considering that after the convergence of the two armies, the grain and grass in Yanmen City were insufficient, so it was better to clamp down on the Turkic soldiers with the momentum of horns, so that the subordinates dissuaded the King of Qi from holding the county of Lao......"

Laihu'er breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine." ”

The three of them finally entered Yanmen City, and when the city gate was closed, they could even see the glittering cold light on the spear tips of the Turkic soldiers in the distance, shining into the air and bright.

After a cup of tea, the sound of horses' hooves shook the ground, and countless cavalry poured in from the north, west and east, and the spear tips were lined up, stabbing into the air, which made people look at it shockingly.

Lai Hu'er took Xiao Buyi and Liu Fan into the city, but let the soldiers first relieve Fang Wuregret from the city gate, Xiao Buyi was secretly grateful, feeling that although this Lai Hu'er was old, he was far from being confused.

When Lai Hu'er saw Yang Guang go up to the city gate tower, he couldn't help but be shocked, and ran up to the city gate tower quickly, and said urgently: "Shengshang, the Turkic soldiers are barbaric and arrogant, this time there are many people, and I also ask the Shengshang to focus on the dragon body and turn around and rest." ”

Yang Guang stood on the tower of the city gate, only looking at the fast horses coming one after another in the distance, the horn sounded, the black pressure of the three-way cavalry gathered, the armor flickered, the cold light was clear, the Turkic soldiers galloped in the smoke and dust, trampled with iron hooves, shouting and screaming endlessly, pointing to the city and scolding, completely ignoring him, the son of heaven of the Great Sui, and couldn't help but turn pale.

But just looking at the meeting, Yang Guang's eyes had already shown a look of horror, and the Turkic soldiers rushed over one after another, not only gathered in the north of the city gate, but soon the north seemed crowded, and had to disperse to both sides of the north city. There was a constant influx of new Turkic soldiers, scattered again, as endless as the tide of the sea.

It didn't take long for soldiers to come to the east, west and even south of the city to report the military situation, saying that Yanmen County was now besieged by Turkic soldiers on all sides and had become a lonely city!

Yang Guang was surrounded by dense guards, all holding shields and knives, using human walls to separate the distance between Yang Guang and the battlements, only afraid that the Turkic soldiers would hurt the saint, but Yang Guang looked at the Turkic soldiers surrounded by an ocean, but he walked in the wild like **, and he felt powerless for the first time.

"What about the messenger!" Yang Guang said suddenly, he thought of something else he could do. He said it in a calm voice, but he was already trembling with anger.

Xiao Buyi watched coldly, but he had never been calm, from the moment Liu Fan, a subordinate of King Qi, entered the city, he did not consider Yang Guang's safety, he had to think about himself now. It is said that the brothers who fight in the war, the father and son soldiers who go into battle, they are just a distant cousin of Yang Guang, whether Yang Yun colludes, I hope that this father will die, I really can't do it now, but I have to be careful that Liu Fan bites himself is true.

A soldier had already brought the messenger forward, but it was Yuwenshu who personally arrested him. Yu Wenshu obviously understood the seriousness of the situation, and the first thing he did in the city was to control the messenger.

The envoy was quite calm, and when he saw that the Turkic soldiers under the city were like ants, he suddenly said: "Son of Heaven of the Great Sui, it seems that our people can't wait for you to see them in person, and they have taken the initiative to come to see you." ”

What he said was somewhat ridiculous, Yang Guang didn't jump like thunder, and suddenly smiled at him, "Do you think that the soldiers are overwhelmed, and I don't dare to do anything to you?" ”

The envoy suddenly felt a chill enveloping his body, and said loudly: "The two countries are fighting each other, and they will not be killed!" ”

Yang Guang waved his hand, "I won't kill you, come and throw him out of the city." ”

Although the envoy tried his best to make a calm appearance, his legs could not help trembling, although Yuwen Shuren was old, he had great strength, and he took the lead in grabbing the messenger. The messenger shouted: "What do you do, you have taken my ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, he was replaced by a terrible scream, and then flew out of the city, falling like a stone.

After a loud 'bang', the scream was put to rest, and Xiao Buyi didn't need to look at it to imagine the tragic situation of this messenger falling from such a high city wall, and the mud was piled up.

There was a moment of silence outside the city, and then there was the sound of trumpets and shouts outside the field, and columns of cavalry rushed towards the city wall, arrows like locusts!

Although Xiao Buyi has experienced a hundred battles, he still has never heard such a tragic and sharp arrow, and the air seems to be cut at that moment, followed by a sound of 'ping pong', and sharp arrows are inserted everywhere.

"Protect the Holy One." When Yuwenshu threw down the messenger, he grabbed a shield early and blocked it in front of Yang Guang, and saw that the Turkic soldiers had rushed to the city, and came to protect the child and shouted: "Release the arrow." ”

On the battlements, the elite soldiers rose up in an instant, pulled their bows and counterattacked, they were condescending, and the arrows were quite powerful, and the horses in front of the city wall screamed and neighed, and a group of Turkic soldiers fell in an instant. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Turkic soldiers did not attack hard, and turned around early, hiding outside the range of arrows on the battlements.

In front of the city gate, the armor was sonorous, noisy and chaotic, and suddenly the horn sounded again, the Turkic soldiers quieted down, separated like waves, several black-haired Daxu fluttered in the wind, and several Turkic soldiers galloped out with flags, lined up on both sides.

Dozens of armored brocade-robed generals surrounded a person in a golden brocade robe out of the military formation, Xiao Buyi looked from afar, and saw that the person was not old, at least much younger than he imagined, with a gloomy expression and a strong body, immediately sat upright, and came out with great momentum, and the surrounding soldiers and generals were all respectful, and secretly said Could this be the first Bi Khan who led the grassland?

"I started with the ambition of the Khan wolf, but I didn't expect to come in person this time." Lai Hu'er's face changed slightly, Rao is he has experienced a hundred battles, and he can see that the cavalry all over the mountains is also frightened.

Yang Guang snorted coldly, but Shibi Khan was moving forward, and the horse whip pointed away: "Yang Guang can be? ”

The ministers all looked at Yang Guang, waiting for his action, but they didn't expect him to move, just his eyebrows tightened.

"Saint, Shibi Khan wants to ......" Yuwen said that he wanted to speak and stopped, and instantly understood Yang Guang's thoughts, knowing that he was afraid, and he didn't want to talk to Shibi on this occasion. Suddenly rushed to the battlements and shouted: "Duji, the Holy Lord has always been kind to you, but what are you doing this time to raise troops to the south?" Quickly retreat, I will not be held accountable by the state of etiquette of the Great Sui. If you don't retreat, I'm just afraid that when the time comes, you will regret it. ”

Duji is the name of Shibi Khan, and Yuwenshu calls him by his first name, just to show contempt.

Shibi Khan didn't move at all, and the soldiers and generals beside him all smiled and leaned back, and said in a loud voice: "Yuwenshu, you accepted our money, and only said that you wanted to lure Yang Guang out of the customs, how can you be capricious this time, but go against us?" You surrender now, the Khan remembers your hard work and achievements, and you are not to blame for the past, if the sword and soldiers meet, I am afraid that you will regret it. ”

"Fuck your stinking fart." Yuwen Shu was furious, his beard was cocked, and he didn't care that Yang Guang was behind him, "Duji, you have deceived others with this clumsy divisive scheme, but how can you deceive my Great Sui Saint Ming King?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and snatched a horned bow from the soldier next to him, bent the bow and arrows, and shot at Shibi Khan with all his might.

Yuwenshu is burly, although he is more than seventy people, but he is very strong, this arrow shoots out, castration is extremely fast, but the beginning of the Khan is far away, and the long arrow is already the end of the strong crossbow. Shibi Khan waved his horsewhip, and he actually rolled up the long arrow, and with a flick of his wrist, the long arrows on the horsewhip flew up and down, which was very beautiful, and all the soldiers and generals cheered in unison.

Xiao Buyi saw that Shibi Khan's hands and eyes were bright, and he obviously had kung fu in his body, and there were many obstacles along the way to the south, so he inevitably suspected that Yuwenshu was also colluding with outsiders, but when he heard the soldiers in the city say this, he felt that it was unlikely that Yuwenshu would collude with the Turks.

Yuwenshu fired two more arrows, both of which were shot down by Shibi Khan's whip, and the city laughed, Yuwenshu angrily threw his bow to the ground and said angrily: "Take a hard bow." ”

The soldier replied: "General, this is already the strongest hard bow at present, and I want to find another longbow......

Yuwen Shu raised his hand to fight, but was grabbed by Lai Hu'er, and said in a deep voice: "General Yuwen, the overall situation is important. ”

Yang Guang looked at Yu Wenshu coldly, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but the sound of laughter came from time to time under the city, and he couldn't help but be annoyed. It has always been him who has come to show grace to the barbarian land, and now it is a great shame to be surrounded by him, and the humiliation at this moment is even more than the defeat in the conquest of Liaodong.

"Whoever can kill Duji will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold." Yang Guang said suddenly.

All the soldiers will look at each other, and if they have money to earn, they have to spend their lives, and the 400,000 Turkic soldiers under the city are surrounded, it is a Yama Palace, and who can kill Shibi Khan in thousands of troops and horses?

Xiao Buyi bent down and picked up Yu Wenshu's abandoned bow, pulled the bow down, shook his head, and suddenly moved his eyes, looked at the two soldiers beside him and said, "Give me the bows and arrows of the two of you." ”

The two soldiers handed over the longbow, "My lord, this bow looks like the one you are using......

Xiao Buyi took the longbow, stretched out his hand to hold it, and actually held the three longbows in his hand, Laihu'er was surprised, and suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Xiao Buyi clenched his longbow, took three long arrows, and suddenly his tongue burst into spring thunder, and he shouted, "Duji is dead." ”

He shouted this to the outside of the city, but the soldiers on the city tower all felt a spring thunder ringing in their ears, and their faces showed fear. Xiao Buyi stood up and reached the battlements, his arms were strong, and he had already drawn three longbows.

Others were in the battlements, standing in the wind, ready to fly, after a shout, even the cavalry under the city fell silent, and looked up the city tower. Xiao Buyi's three strings were put together, and he took three long arrows, and suddenly let go and shot out.

The arrow goes to the meteor, the three arrows are fired at the same time, the air is just a 'whoosh' sound, an arrow is rushing to the beginning of the Khan, all the soldiers are bursting with a shout, shouting loudly, the sound can be the sky, but they are all the results of the burning eyes, and the admiration in the heart is incomprehensible.

Shibi Khan was shocked, and when he saw Xiao Buyi on the city tower like a god, he shouted as if he was thundering, and he didn't dare to take a long whip to block the long arrow, Huo Ran took off his shield and put it on his chest.

With a loud sound, the long arrow hit the shield, and Shibi Khan only felt that his arm was sore, like an electric shock, and he could barely hold the shield, and he couldn't help but be shocked by Xiao Buyi's divine power. Suddenly, the horse neighed under the crotch, and 'Goodong' fell to the ground, and Shibi Khan rolled to the ground, only to find that a long arrow had pierced the horse's neck, trembling!

The soldier holding the black Daxu next to him was stunned on the ground, the black Daxu fell, and Xiao Buyi shouted loudly: "Shibi Khan is dead, and you won't retreat quickly!" ”

He has three bows and three arrows, and the targets are all different, one arrow is of course Shibi Khan, and the other two arrows are respectively shot at the soldiers who hold Daxu and the war horse of Shibi Khan.

Xiao Buyi shot again with an arrow, but Shibi Khan was also cunning, and after falling to the ground, he had already hidden behind the general. When the soldiers saw Shibi Khan fall off his horse, they had already desperately stepped forward to block it, Xiao Buyi's three arrows only killed one person, and when he wanted to shoot again, the shield hand had already blocked the front layer by layer, and the barriers were clear, and he knew that he could only put down the longbow.

He also knew that it was difficult to shoot Shibi Khan, and he was to create chaos by shooting people and horses and shooting flags, and he only hated that there was no Li Jing by his side, otherwise with his vision and ability, at this time, he led a team of elite soldiers to kill out, and the Turkic soldiers were panicked and had an unstable foothold, and they could be defeated.

When Laihu'er saw Shibi Khan fall off his horse, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said urgently: "Holy Lord, the ministers invite troops to fight." ”

Yu Wenshu said urgently: "No, there are not many soldiers in the city......"

Yang Guang was pleasantly surprised, took two steps forward and looked, and found that Shibi Khan had already gotten on the horse at this time, although he was not dead, but he was also embarrassed, and he couldn't help laughing.

Shibi Khan snatched his horses, his heart was angry, his subordinates had already raised the black hair Dazhu, Shibi Khan pointed with a whip: "Whoever is the first to attack the city wall will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold and a thousand slaves!" ”

He shouted in a deep voice, and when the Turkic soldiers heard the Khan's voice, they couldn't help but feel relieved. When the people heard of the reward of the golden servants, they had already rushed forward, and some of them shot arrows indiscriminately to hold down the soldiers on the battlements, and some of them had already rushed to the bottom of the wall and threw hooks and ropes to climb.

They went all the way south, and also prepared some ladders to attack the city, but after all, it was cumbersome, with inconvenience, and it was still far behind.

Lai Hu'er saw that the Turkic soldiers were not good at attacking the city, and now the siege tools were even more rudimentary, and he was very determined, and when the Turkic soldiers climbed hard to the halfway, then the soldiers let out their arrows, the spears poked out, and screamed in mid-air, and countless Turkic soldiers fell, with heavy casualties. The city soldiers relied on the high-walled battlements and fortresses to defend them, but suffered few casualties. Yang Guang had already retreated far away under the escort of Yuwenshu, and when he saw that the Turkic soldiers could not conquer it, he was a little relieved.

Shibi Khan saw that many of his subordinates died, and knew that it was not a way, so he had no choice but to withdraw his troops early, just surrounding Yanmen City, and then making plans.

**Yang Guang went to the wooden palace surrounded by everyone for a while, his wooden palace is also called [***] city, it can be seen that the scale is huge, every time he stays at night, he is to deploy the gun cart to the periphery to resist the assassins and soldiers, [***] The city is also a layer of organs, steel cones, crossbow arrows are used to shoot the enemy, bell pillars, stone pans are used to call the police, and now although they are hastily assembled, they are not sloppy at all.

Seeing that the Turkic soldiers were suspending the offensive, Lai Hu'er knew that they were also thinking about the method of attacking the city, so he asked his subordinates to keep a strict watch, and immediately reported any movement, but he and his ministers came over to discuss with Yang Guang about the plan to relieve the siege.

It's just that everyone arrived at the [***] city, and although they were calm on the surface, they all saw the panic in each other's eyes.

The number of Turkic soldiers is obvious to all, and now the siege is not down, but everyone is unable to break the siege, and the danger of the situation is only seen in life.

In addition to the right Yiwei general to protect the children, the left Yiwei general Yu Wenshu, there are also a group of important ministers such as Fan Zigai, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Nayan Su Wei, Pei Yunyu Shiji is also there, everyone is a figure who calls for wind and rain, and now they are all worried about being trapped in the lonely city.

In addition to the ministers, Queen Xiao and her younger brother Xiao Yu were actually there, Xiao Buyi saw it and nodded. The queen and her uncle were also overjoyed to see their relatives, just Xiao Buyi showed his might at the city gate, Xiao Yu had already heard what was said, and told the queen in a low voice, but Queen Xiao sighed lightly and said softly: "Buyi, this child, always puts himself in danger, if something happens, how can I explain it to my cousin?" ”

Although Xiao Buyi was far away, he could hear it clearly, and a warmth rose in his heart, although Queen Xiao and him were only a few sides, but she was in danger, but she was thinking about him everywhere, how could she not let him be moved!
