The contradiction between the Sui Dynasty and the Shibi Khan began with Princess Yicheng, although the Sui Dynasty later forked the general, the princess of the famous clan to marry the Turks in the north, but this could not alleviate the resentment of the Shibi Khan against the Sui Dynasty, but this did not make the Turks and the Great Sui turn their faces, and the Shibi Khan would not attack the Great Sui because of a woman.

There are other reasons for the deterioration of relations between Sui and Turks, the year before last, Pei Ju was ordered to send an envoy to the Turks, and visited the brother of the Shibi Khan, which is also an important force of the Turks, and Yang Guang in order to divide the increasingly powerful Turks, he promised to marry the princess of the clan to the Jisheh, and promised to crown him as the Khan of the south, and he did not dare to accept the princess and canonization, and at the same time told his brother Shibi Khan, it was from then on, Shibi Khan had the heart of the southern invasion of the Great Sui.

Shibi Khan's original intention was to attack Fengzhou and kill his old enemy Yang Yuanqing, the contradiction between him and Yang Yuanqing had been more than ten years ago, Yang Yuanqing's first envoy to the Turks arose, and Yang Yuanqing successively took away his sister Asduo and the woman who should have belonged to him, Princess Yicheng, which made Shibi Khan hate Yang Yuanqing to the core, but what made him even more intolerable was the relationship between Yang Yuanqing and Utu, their alliance was the henchman of Shibi Khan, especially Yang Yuanqing sold to Utu at the end of the year before last 5,000 leads, As a result, Shibi Khan lost the battle against the Utu Department last summer, which made Shibi Khan regard Yang Yuanqing as a great enemy.

Unexpectedly, the unexpected trip of the Sui Emperor Yang Guang caused him to change his plan, Fengzhou was a plot, and Yang Guang was a country, if he could capture the Great Sui Emperor, then the ransom he received was enough to make the Turks become the lord of the East and make the Sui Dynasty submit to his feet.

The 400,000-strong army quickly packed up its camp tents, and rushed towards Yulin County like an endless pack of steppe wolves, while Yang Guang was still on his way to Yulin County.

In a jungle about 20 miles west of Fu Qibo, Wu Zhiyuan, the general of Eagle Strike Lang, led 20 Sui scouts to hide in it, and they divided their troops into 10 routes to track the main Turkic force.

Two months ago, Wu Zhiyuan led his army to defeat 500 Turkic cavalry and intercepted more than 2,000 fugitives before accumulating merit and being promoted to Eagle Strike General.

More than a dozen Sui soldiers were lying under the tree to rest, when the earth suddenly shook, the Sui soldiers jumped up from the ground one after another, and Wu Zhiyuan shouted to the top of the tree: "What did you find?" ”

There was a Sui army detective in the tree, he looked into the distance for a moment, turned back and shouted: "It's the Turkic cavalry coming, boundless!" ”

Wu Zhiyuan immediately decided, "The An family is all in the depths of the forest!" ”

Twenty scouts quickly rushed to the depths of the forest, and in a moment the Turkic cavalry was overwhelming like a dark cloud, and the 400,000 cavalry roared like a sea of people, sweeping towards the west, and the path of the team was dozens of miles.

The scouts of the Sui army hid in the depths of the forest, they could still feel the trembling of the earth, Wu Zhiyuan climbed on a big tree, visited the Turkic army several miles away, he could basically judge the number of the other party and the direction of the march, the south was the Great Wall that they could not cross, if they went to Mayi County, they would either go east, cross from the end of the east or go west, and the west could bypass the Great Wall was Yulin County.

"Eagle!"

Following Wu Zhiyuan's order, a falcon flew out of the cage carried by the Sui army, circled over the forest a few times, and then flew westward.

The general who sat in Yulin was the overseer of the Yang family, he shouldered an extremely important task, he was so nervous that he couldn't sleep at night these days, tensed his nerves, and waited for the news from the east with all his attention, Yang Guang had already received the information from Yulin County, but he did not get the information of the Turkic army.

At noon, a falcon circled from the west, and several soldiers shouted, "Overseers, the falcon is coming!" ”

Yang Jiachen ran out of the room, looking at the flying eagle in the sky, it was the eagle that came to deliver the letter, and after a while, the flying eagle fell, and the eagle slave handed over the information, Yang Jiachen looked at it, and immediately gave an order: "Inform the people of the city that the Turkic army is about to be killed, and those who are willing to retreat west can evacuate with the army!" ”

He took out the letter left by Yang Yuanqing and handed it to the soldiers, "Send this letter to the emperor immediately." ”

The city of Yulin was boiling, and the soldiers of the Sui army galloped through the streets on horseback and shouted: "The Turkic army is about to be killed, evacuate to the west quickly!" ”

The inhabitants of the city -- a piece of chaos, -- more than 10,000 residents living in the city helped the old and the young, took valuable belongings, rode horses and donkeys, drove carriages and mule carts to evacuate to the west, and the advantage of the frontier was that almost every household had animal power, and no matter how poor the family was, there would also be a donkey, and soon a huge westward retreat contingent was gathered outside the city, and 3,000 cavalry of the Sui army escorted the people to the west, and the nearest county seat to Yulin County was Heyang County, which was 200 miles away.

Yang Guang's car was still sixty miles away from the county seat of Yulin, and the speed of the army was not fast, escorting the huge Liuhe City to move slowly westward.

At this moment, several cavalry rushed from the west, and a patrol came forward to intercept him, "What kind of person, trespassing! ”

The leading cavalry arched his hand and said: "I am the garrison of Yulin County, and I have urgent information to report to the saint!" ”

"What's the matter?"

"The Turkic army of 400,000 is coming in the direction of Yulin County, please retreat urgently!"

The leader of the patrol cavalry was surprised, "You come with me!" He rushed to Liuhe City with the messengers――――――

―A quarter of an hour later, Yang Guang received a letter from Yang Yuanqing, and he opened it with a gloomy face, which began: 'Yang Yuanqing, the governor of Fengzhou, respects His Majesty the Emperor......

Yang Guang snorted coldly, and continued to look down, he was stunned, about 400,000 Turkic troops were killing Yulin City......

Yang Guang pondered for a long time and asked the soldier who sent the letter, "Is Yang Yuanqing in Yulin City?" ”

"Your Majesty, Chief Yang just arrived in Yulin County this morning, but when he heard that the Turkic army was coming, he led the people in the city to evacuate westward, and our scouts found that there were at least 400,000 Turkic troops, which were 150 miles away when they were discovered, and now it is estimated that there are still 100 miles away from Yulin City, so the chief asks Your Majesty to retreat south immediately."

Yang Guang waved his hand, "Take him down!" ”

At this time, Yu Wenshu next to him said cautiously: "Your Majesty, could it be Yang Yuanqing's false strategy?" Use the Turks to frighten us. ”

Yang Gongdao was a little worried, "Your Majesty, if there are really 400,000 Turkic cavalry, then the problem will be serious, and believe in Yang Yuanqing and quickly retreat south." ”

At this moment, there was a rushing sound outside the imperial study, and a guard made an urgent report outside the door, "Your Majesty, there is urgent news from the defenders of the Great Wall, hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry have been found in the north, killing in the direction of Yulin City, and it is very likely to come around the Great Wall."

Yang Guang stood up suddenly, he could not believe Qi Yuanqing's words, but he couldn't believe the news of the defenders of the Great Wall, he was so shocked that his voice changed, "Quick, retreat south quickly!" ”

The Turkic army of 400,000 was already more than 100 miles away, and according to their speed, they could catch up with the northern patrol team in half a day, and Yang Guang did not dare to do Liuhe City anymore, so he abandoned Liuhe City and changed it to horseback, and the 100,000 army left all kinds of miscellaneous baggage and fled south in panic.

―At the same time, Yang Guang received the news that the 400,000 Turkic army had been chased sixty miles away, and the 5,000 Sui army that intercepted the Turkic army had been wiped out.

Yuwen Chengdu, the general of the Left Guard, rushed to Yang Guang and shouted: "Your Majesty, go to Yanmen Pass and use the terrain to block the Turkic army." ”

At this time, Yang Guang was already the master of the six gods, Yuwen Chengdu made a suggestion, and Yang Guang agreed repeatedly, "Go to Yanmen County!" ”

100,000 forbidden troops were frightened and frightened, -- the road ran wildly, at the fourth watch, Yang Guang's troops crossed Yanmen and entered the county seat of Yanmen, Yanmen County was seriously damaged during the rebellion of Yang Liang, and later rebuilt, the rebuilt city wall of Yanmen County was tall and strong, with a circumference of 20 miles, it was a county with a population of more than 20,000 people in thousands of households, and Yang Guang rushed into the county seat like a gust of wind, and his heart calmed down a little.

He heard that the emperor had fled, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly vacated the official office to Yang Guanghe and the palace concubine, and contacted the people of the delusional family to arrange for 100 officials, and the 100,000 forbidden troops could only stay in the houses at will.

As soon as the morning dawned, the Taishou Lu Yu took dozens of officials to send the wine and food prepared by the wine shops to the county office, the county government has been temporarily changed into the Yanmen Palace, thousands of soldiers around the county government like iron buckets, wine and food sent in first, Lu Yu waited for a long time, - a eunuch came out to announce the decree, "There is a decree in the saint, Xuan Taishou Lu Yu will meet you!" ”

Lu Yu followed the eunuch into the county office that originally belonged to him, and walked to the emperor's temporary imperial study, he couldn't help but be a little frightened in his heart, the holy imperial study actually chose his office room, and there were some things hidden under the floor tiles, but they must not be discovered.

"Xi Taishou, Your Majesty ordered you to meet you!"

Lu Yu trembled into the room, and only then did he put his heart down slightly, and a thick carpet was laid on the floor, and the holy couch was where he hid his belongings.

"Minister Lu Yu see Your Majesty!"

Yang Guang had just eaten something and drank a bowl of ginseng tea, and finally came to his senses, but he was still worried, the Turkic 400,000 iron horsemen, can the small Yanmen City withstand it?

"Lu Aiqing, I heard that you participated in the battle against Yang Liang?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Renshou four years, when the governor of Times Prefecture was Li Jing, Feng Xiaoci was Sima, and the minister was the judiciary, Yang Liang sent Qiao Zhongkui to lead an army of 50,000 to attack the city, we only had a few thousand people, and we held on for more than a month, and then it was Yang Yichen and Yang Yuanqing who came to the rescue, and finally defeated Yang Liang's rebels."

Yang Guang nodded, "It's all more than ten years ago, Li Jing is dead, Yang Yichen is also dead, Feng Xiaoci is dead, only Yang Yuanqing is left, but he is ...... Ay! ”

This time, Yang Yuanqing sent someone to report the news in time, indicating that he had not really rebelled against Sui in his heart, which made Yang Guang's resentment towards Yang Yuanqing a little lighter.

"How many troops are there in the city now?"

"There are Daizhou troops in the city - 10,000 people, and 20,000 ordinary people, but it's just ......"

"Just what?" Yang Guang had an ominous feeling in his heart, and hurriedly said.

Lu Yu said what he was most worried about, "It's just that there are only 20,000 stone of grain stored in the warehouse in the city, which is only enough for the Holy Army and the soldiers and civilians in the city to eat for twenty days at most, and the forage is seriously insufficient......"
