Chapter 197

The Second Route Army of the Northern Han Dynasty was dispatched, and Liu Chengjun's 20,000 cavalry also began to move, Liu Chengjun led 5,000 cavalry to retreat five miles, with 5,000 cavalry as the vanguard and 10,000 cavalry as the Chinese army, and set up a formation.

The military situation was reported to Baili Wuji, and Baili Wuji didn't feel it.

This is really intentionally planting flowers that do not bloom, and unintentionally planting willows and willows.

Baili Wuji ordered the defenders of Yanmen Pass and Chenjiagu Pass to be on strict alert, not to expose their strength, and strictly ordered not to take the initiative to start a war.

At the same time, he ordered the 20,000 musketeers of the Special Operations Army to divide into three routes, and respectively bring eight artillery pieces to the rear of the three important cities of Yunzhou, Yanmen Pass, and Chenjiagu Pass to stand by, and ordered Ding Sijin to temporarily take over the post of commander of the Fourth Army, go to Wuzhou for ten miles north, and then turn west to surround Liu Chengjun's troops.

Chen Yanzheng led the headquarters to guard Youzhou.

And Baili Wuji himself led the remaining artillery in the artillery compartment to Yingzhou, and this one had to gamble big.

The pit has been dug up, and it is waiting for Liu Min and his son of the Northern Han Dynasty to jump into it by themselves.

The next day, Liu Chengjun first couldn't hold back the food and grass, and took the lead in launching an attack, but the Ming army in Yunzhou City was prepared to fight and blocked Liu Chengjun's troops with grenades, but he did not do his best according to the plan, so that Liu Chengjun felt that there was still hope for breaking through Yunzhou.

On the second day, the army of the Second Route of the Northern Han Dynasty arrived at the offensive position, and after repairing for half a day, it brazenly launched an attack.

The Ming troops at Yanmen Pass and Chenjiagu Pass also held off the enemy with grenades in accordance with the plan.

On the third day, when Ding Sijun's troops successfully appeared in the rear of Liu Chengjun's cavalry, Ding Sijin quickly ordered the whole army of the Fourth Army to raid Liu Chengjun's rear.

Liu Chengjun couldn't react, in a hurry. Ordered 5,000 cavalry to mount and repel the enemy.

As soon as the rear army was in chaos, the Chinese army would naturally follow suit.

After the Ming army in Yunzhou City discovered the signal, they immediately began to bombard Liu Chengjun's Chinese army with artillery. The 8,000 musketeers who were ambushed in Yunzhou City immediately rushed to the city wall and fired at the 5,000 cavalry who were attacking Yunzhou outside the city.

In just half an hour, Liu Chengjun's 20,000 cavalry surrendered under the leadership of Liu Chengjun after more than 5,000 people were killed and wounded.

As soon as Liu Chengjun surrendered, Yingzhou's Baili Wuji led the artillery compartment south by Yingzhou, and at the same time ordered Yanmen Pass and Chenjiagu Pass to start collecting nets.

Yanmen Pass and Chenjiagu Pass were originally a dangerous place where one man was the pass and ten thousand people could not be opened, and the defenders deliberately showed weakness in front, and now they have been ordered by Baili Wuji. As a result, thousands of grenades rained down, and the Northern Han army had never seen such a formation. The Northern Han army that attacked Yanmen Pass and Chenjiagu Pass was quickly defeated, and except for some of them who fled to Daizhou City, the rest were captured, including Liu Jiye, the commander of the defense. And Ma Bujun commanded Zhang Yuanhui because he was in Daizhou. Escaped.

As a result, 12,000 musketeers from Yanmen Pass and Chenjiagu went south from the two passes and besieged Daizhou City.

Baili Wuji then sat in Yanmen Pass, ordered Ding Sijin to lead the Fourth Army from Yunzhou to the south to join him, and ordered 8,000 musketeers to turn east and garrison Dushi and Gubei to prevent the Liao army from attacking when they heard the news.

Baili Wuji met Liu Jiye, the commander of the guard, at Yanmen Pass, and he was not interested in this kind of unknown young general. But Liu Jiye's self-admitted background made Baili Wuji a little dizzy.

This Liu Jiye is actually surnamed Yang Mingye, and his father's name is Yang Xin. Yang Xinshi lives in Linzhou, is a local hero, strong, self-led Linzhou Thorn History, has two sons, the eldest son Yang Ye, the second son Yang Chongxun.

After Guo Wei claimed that the emperor built Zhou, Yang Xin was attached to the Zhou State, and Guo Wei was still named the Linzhou Assassin History.

Soon, Guo Wei killed Liu Min's son Liu Yun, Liu Min became independent, and proclaimed himself emperor in Taiyuan Mansion to establish the Northern Han Dynasty.

Yang Ye is young, suave and chivalrous, good at riding and shooting, likes hunting, and always hunts more than others. Although he didn't read much, he was loyal and brave, and he was very resourceful. Out of the heart of a teenager, in order to make a contribution, after Yang Xin switched to Liu Min, Yang Ye went to Taiyuan Mansion and followed Liu Min. was appreciated by Liu Min, recognized his son, and changed his name to Liu Jiye.

Because Liu Jiye was born brave, he was promoted from a lieutenant to the commander of the guard, that is, the commander of the personal soldiers.

Soon, Yang Xin died, and because the eldest son Yang Ye was in Liu Chong of the Northern Han Dynasty, the second son Yang Chongxun succeeded him as the assassin of Linzhou.

Not long ago, when Liu Jiye was stationed at the Qixing Temple in the Lishi area of Shizhou, he met Zhe Saihua, the daughter of the Fuzhou Dangxiang Wang clan, and the two were happily married for life. Zhe De is not famous, but his father Zhe Congruan is famous, and the Zhe family is the assassin of Fuzhou, and is now the envoy of the Zhou State Baoyi Festival.

Soon after, Liu Jiye became close to Zhesaihua.

Hearing this, Baili Wuji had a bottom in his heart, so he had the idea of soliciting.

"Liu Jiye, are you willing to return to the Ming Kingdom and return to Shun I?"

"Yes."

"Uh......." This doesn't seem to be the fan that Yang Linggong should have in the legend. Baili Wuji thought of a lot of solicitation strategies, but it was useless at this time, Liu Jiye actually responded.

This made Baili Wuji a little disappointed, and he also had doubts, whether this Yang family general should be a made-up romance in later generations.

But Liu Jiye's life is so worthy of the number, even marrying a broken race flower, and marrying a broken family is not bad, there should be no problem.

Baili Wuji fell into contemplation, but Liu Jiye was in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what errand I can give to my ministers?"

Baili Wuji thought about things in his heart, and asked casually: "What errand do you want?" ”

Liu Jiye was unceremonious and said: "The minister has been brave since he was a child, and everyone in the government and Lin Erzhou knows it, and the minister must lead the troops, gallop on the battlefield, and defend the northwest for His Majesty." ”

Baili Wuji smiled when he heard this: "Stick to the northwest, you have a lot of tone, but a few days ago, you led 5,000 Northern Han troops to be instantly defeated by the Ming army?" ”

Liu Jiye's face turned red, and he defended: "Your Majesty Mingjian, this battle is not the fault of the ministers who are greedy for life and fear of death, and the battle is not effective, it is really the Ming army's firearms, if Your Majesty does not believe it, you can make the Ming army generals fight with a certain battle that day, if a certain loses, do not mention the matter of leading the troops." ”

Baili Wuji smiled, this battle really relied on the spirit of not admitting defeat in his chest, and he had a little good impression of Liu Jiye in his heart.

Hearing Liu Jiye's challenge, Ding Siwei wanted to teach this boy a lesson.

"Your Majesty, please meet this kid."

Baili Wuji is interested, I think he was a stunned young man back then, and now he is also a fierce general.

So, he nodded and agreed to the two's competition.

Yanmen Pass suddenly became lively, the Fourth Army assembled this time originally had a lot of veterans from the original Black Flag Guard, and it was led by Baili Yi, and the whole army was afraid that the world would not be chaotic.

Baili Wuji specially chose the place of competition in the military camp, because there were thousands of Northern Han soldiers imprisoned there. Baili Wuji's intention has been obvious, through this competition, the integration of the relationship between the two armies, Baili Wuji has made up his mind to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty.
