Liaodong, the situation deteriorated.

After Lu Xiangsheng, the defender of Liaodong City, attacked Fuyu and died, the nomadic tribes, fishing and hunting tribes in various places were ready to move.

The Wuhuan tribe asked Sun Chuanting, the Taishou of Liaoxi, for Qiu Liju, the lord of Wuhuan who was under house arrest by Sun Chuanting, and Badun.

The various Xianbei tribes stopped attacking each other, watched from the sidelines, and waited for changes.

The activities of the Goguryeo tribes in Liaodong became more and more frequent.

The scale of the uprising in Goryeo was getting bigger and bigger, and Zhu Neng, the guard of Goryeo, tried his best to suppress the uprising in Goryeo.

Gongsun Kang fled from Buyeo to Xuansu County and immediately recruited soldiers and horses to defend against the enemy from Buyeo. Xuansu County is located between Liaodong County and Buyeo State, Lu Xiangsheng and Tianxiong Army were all wiped out, so Xuansu County became an obstacle for Buyeo State to invade Liaodong.

The people of Liaodong City were panicked, and Fan Wencheng, the Minister of the Interior of Mingguan, did his best to appease the people.

The white light of the teleportation array flashed, and a black-robed military master appeared from the teleportation array, and with this came, there was also Li Chenggui, the king of Kangxian of the Goryeo Kingdom.

"Now the situation is critical, if you can help the Lord to settle the situation, then, the position of the Lord of Goryeo will be yours in the future."

Yao Guangxiao, the black-clothed prime minister, lured Li Chenggui to take advantage of him, and asked Li Chenggui to lead the servant army of Goryeo to assist the Liaodong Army and stabilize the situation.

Originally, Yao Guangxiao and Li Chenggui were ordered to go to the Heilongjiang River valley to participate in the suppression of the Dajin Kingdom, but Liaodong City suddenly got out of control, and Yao Guangxiao was sent back by Mingguan to stabilize the situation.

Liaodong City is the most important territory of Mingguan, and if Liaodong City is lost, then Mingguan will not be able to get enough supplies in the Heilongjiang Valley, and maybe, it will fail.

"Please rest assured, the last general will do his best to serve the lord!"

Li Chenggui immediately agreed.

This is also his chance, he has already betrayed the Injin of Goryeo, and only with the support of Myeongguan can he become the king of Goryeo and suppress those who oppose him in Goryeo.

Yao Guangxiao took Li Chenggui to the lord's mansion in Liaodong City, and the officials and generals went in and out of the lord's mansion, dispatching troops and horses, pacifying various tribes, and were anxious.

Fan Wencheng, who was in charge of internal affairs, saw Yao Guangxiao and others coming, so he got up: "You can be regarded as coming." ”

"How many troops are available now? General Lee's Goryeo army, about 50,000. ”

Yao Guangxiao bluntly asked Fan Wencheng about the strength of the army around Liaodong City.

"There is also a team of Eight Banners of the Han Army, this is a special type of troops of the Lord, and it has always been stationed in Liaodong City, even if the Tianxiong Army went to crusade against the Fuyu Kingdom, it did not use the Eight Banners of the Han Army."

"Concentrate the main forces and go to Xuansu County to set up defenses. We must know where this enemy who killed Lu Xiangsheng came from. ”

Yao Guangxiao knows that a strong enemy is not necessarily terrible, and what is truly terrible is an unknown enemy.

"Before Lu Xiangsheng was surrounded, he opened the passage between Buyeo Kingdom and Xuansu County, sent out some strangers and prisoners, and obtained important information for us."

"Can the captives explain that they are the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom? Or Goguryeo, or the Mongol and Xianbei cavalry? ”

Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but be moved.

Lu Xiangsheng knew the importance of intelligence to the decision-making of the Liaodong Army, and before falling into the encirclement of the other party, he handed over the prisoners to the Inhuman lord who broke through in advance to send out important information.

The Inhuman Lord is well-informed, and coupled with the torture of the Liaodong Army, he can definitely obtain important information from the captives.

Fan Wencheng handed a volume of documents to Yao Guangxiao: "According to the confession of the captured enemy soldiers, they belong to the leather room army. And there are also Inhuman lords who claim that the leather room army is the elite army of the Khitans. ”

Yao Guangxiao took the document record of the torture of the Khitan captives, and frowned.

Not to mention Lu Xiangsheng, even he thinks that the enemy who helps Buyeo is a small group of Jin cavalry, and it may even be the cavalry of the Xianbei tribe. However, the results of the torture of the captives showed that this cavalry was not Jurchen, not Xianbei, not Mongolian, but Khitan!

"This is a barbarian tribe that has descended on Liaodong, and like the Jin Kingdom, the number of enemies we face has increased."

Yao Guangxiao realized the seriousness of the problem.

It is not easy to deal with the Jurchens of the Jin State, and the Khitan cavalry has appeared in the Buyeo State, which is not a good thing.

The Liao State also has its own elite army, the Leather Room Army.

"To deal with the Khitans, focus on defense, and only by waiting for the lord to break through the capital of the Jin State, return to Liaodong, and attack us from the north and south, can we eliminate the Khitan cavalry entrenched in Buyeo......"

Under the premise of insufficient troops, it was difficult for Yao Guangxiao to use stratagems to eliminate a powerful force that suddenly appeared.

At its peak, the Liao State defeated the Northern Song Dynasty, which had not long been founded, and the Song general Yang Ye and others were killed, which was undoubtedly an extremely powerful enemy.

The accounts of the captives of the Pi Room Army are also not detailed, such as who the Khitan generals entrenched in the Buyeo State are, it is unknown.

"Urgent report, Xuanwu County cavalry captain Gongsun Kang asked for help, a large number of unknown cavalry and Fuyu people attacked Xuanwu County!"

When Yao Guangxiao returned to Liaodong City to join Fan Wencheng, Xuanwu County suddenly became in an emergency!

"Just with those guards in Xuansu County, even if there is a strong rebel army, they can't defend for long, and they must go to Xuanwu County before the teleportation array in Xuanwu County is cut off, otherwise, it will be too late. Li Chenggui, you set off immediately. ”

"Yes!"

Li Chenggui led the troops of the Goryeo Kingdom and used the teleportation array of Liaodong City to go to the defense line of Xuansu County.

"The lord should agree to use the Eight Banners of the Han Army, the situation is critical, and there can be no hesitation at all, mobilize the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and march to Xuansu County. You can't rely entirely on the teleportation array, maybe the Khitan cavalry will soon be under the city of Xuansu County, causing the teleportation array to fail. ”

Yao Guangxiao presided over the defense of Xuansu County for the first time.

Fan Wencheng hesitated for a moment and said to Yao Guangxiao: "Should we requisition the servant armies of the Wuhuan tribe, the Xianbei tribe, and the Goguryeo tribe, and use these tribes to consume the Khitan cavalry?" If these tribes stay, sooner or later it will be a hidden danger, so it is better to drive the tiger and devour the wolf. ”

Yao Guangxiao thought for a while, and his eyes were full of brilliance: "What you say is okay." Moreover, attempts were made to recruit captured Goryeo generals, several of whom had the ability to command troops and horses, especially Eulji Moondeok. Eulji Mundeok was a Goguryeo military general, and he might not be willing to serve Choi Jae-seon, who had died. If he could extend favors to him and promise to treat the Goguryeo people well, he might be willing to command the Goguryeo servants. ”

"Murong Ba of the Yanqi Guild can force the Xianbei tribe to be loyal and command the Xianbei servant army."

"Then try to induce Qiu Liju of the Wuhuan tribe to command the Wuhuan servant army to fight for our Liaodong army."

"Very good."

Fan Wencheng and Yao Guangxiao are good at scheming and people's hearts, and they are simple to negotiate, trying to use heroes to manipulate various tribes and stabilize the situation in Liaodong with the strength of the two.

In Xuansu County, Li Sung-gye, the king of Goryeo Guokangxian, led the Goryeo army and used the teleportation array to arrive at the city.

The daily teleportation array has a limited number of troops, Li Chenggui's Goryeo army has only teleported 10,000 people, and the Khitan cavalry has already hit the city and cut off the teleportation array!

Under the offensive of the Khitan cavalry, the Xuanwu soldiers and the Yiren Leader Army were defeated and retreated.

The wolf totem battle flag of the Khitan people was unfurled, the elite cavalry of the leather room army galloped, and the Xuansu soldiers of Gongsun Kang were defeated in the face of the offensive of the Khitan generals.

Gongsun Kang was also a famous general in Liaodong at the end of the Han Dynasty, but he faced the Khitans. Some of the Khitan generals could defeat the Northern Song Dynasty shortly after the founding of the country, and they were not comparable to a small force in a corner of the Han Dynasty like Gongsun Kang.

Gongsun Kang abandoned Lu Xiangsheng and fled back to Xuansu County, and after the Khitan cavalry defeated Lu Xiangsheng, they pursued all the way to Xuanwu County and attacked the city.

The strategic intention of the Khitan cavalry was very simple, to use the Buyeo people to attract the main force of the Liaodong Army to the Buyeo State, annihilate it, and then the army went south to attack Xuansu County and Liaodong County, occupy Liaodong, and establish its own dynasty.

Such a strategy, while simple, is to the point.

Li Chenggui held a bow and shot a Khitan cavalry who was showing off his might below, and the arrow was separated by a hundred paces and directly penetrated the throat of the Khitan cavalry, which made many defenders of Xuansu County look sideways.

As the first archer of the Goryeo Kingdom, Yi Sunggui was quite powerful.

"My legion has only come with 10,000 people, and the teleportation array has failed, if the rest of the reinforcements don't arrive soon, Xuansu County won't be ...... at all Can't hold ......"

Li Chenggui couldn't help frowning when he saw the Khitan cavalry all over the mountains under the city.

The main force of the Liaodong Army went to the Heilongjiang River Valley to crusade against the Jin State, Chang Yuchun, Li Chengliang, Jin Wushu, Dolgon and others were all in the Heilongjiang River Valley, and the Liaodong County was empty, and it was difficult to resist the Khitan cavalry.

Among the tens of thousands of Khitan cavalry, a carriage came to the city, and the Khitan military generals who presided over the attack on Xuansu County dismounted, came to the side of the carriage, and asked the people in the carriage for orders.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted by a jade hand, and a woman looked at the city of Xuansu County, her eyes were clear and bright: "The country of Fuyu is weak, and the Liaodong army is not on guard against it, so that the city defense of Xuansu County is not enough." Drove away the servants of the Fuyu, Bohai and Xuansu counties, and captured the city within ten days. ”

"What if Liaodong City sends reinforcements to arrive?"

"Defeated."

The Khitan general said, "Yes." ”

The woman lowered the curtain and hid her shocked face.

The cavalry of the Pi Room Army protected the carriage and left, leaving the task of presiding over the siege of the city to the Khitan generals in charge of the siege.

This woman is more like a nobleman among the Khitans, and her status is not ordinarily high.

The Khitan army built siege equipment under the city, and gathered a group of Buyeo soldiers, Xuansu soldiers, as well as Bohai soldiers and Goguryeo soldiers, as a servant army, intending to adopt the usual tactics of crowds and capture the seat of Xuansu County.

Once the Khitan army captures Xuansu County, then the Khitan forces will have Fuyu Kingdom and Xuansu County as territory in Liaodong, and Mingguan will be attacked on their backs.

Whether it is the Han army or the Khitan army, they regard the servant army as cannon fodder and consume them to attack the city, and they do not feel distressed.

Gongsun Kang saw that the Khitan army had gathered tens of thousands of servants to build siege equipment under the city, and there was a trend of attacking the city on a large scale, and he couldn't help but regret that he had abandoned Lu Xiangsheng and the Tianxiong army in the Buyeo Kingdom.

If Lu Xiangsheng and the Tianxiong Army have some troops to return to Xuansu County, with Lu Xiangsheng's ability, they can still hold on until reinforcements arrive.

Gongsun Kang's ability to defend the city was not as good as that of Lu Xiangsheng, and now he had to rely on Li Chenggui of Goryeo.

Li Chenggui's palm holding the longbow was oozing with sweat, and sweat flowed down the bow.

A Khitan general under the city looked up at Li Chenggui and Gongsun Kang and others, very disdainful.

As long as the Khitans are ready, then they will drive the servant army and attack Xuansu County in a steady stream.

Dozens of cavalry galloped out of Liaodong City, galloping towards the Wuhuan tribe, Xianbei tribe, and Goguryeo tribe respectively, contacting the servant army that submitted to the Liaodong army.

……

In addition, Yue Fei's Bingzhou Army was resting in Taiyuan County, Shuofang County, Yunzhong County and other places, recruiting soldiers and horses, and defending the Hetao and Monan areas.

Xue Yue, who was in charge of intelligence, came to Monan Dragon City.

Monan Dragon City hoarded hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to confront the cavalry of Mobei.

Mobei and Monan are separated by the Gobi and the plateau, and it is easier to attack Monan from Mobei, on the contrary, if you attack Mobei from Monan, it will be quite difficult without a teleportation array.

The entire teleportation array in Mobei is all controlled by the Mongol Empire, and unlike the Western Regions, at least the teleportation array of the Cheshi Kingdom is still under the control of the Western Regions Protectorate.

Attacking Mobei can only be a long march in the Overworld.

"According to the information obtained by the scouts in Liaodong, the forces that appeared in the Fuyu Kingdom in Liaodong were tribes of the Khitans."

"Khitans? That is to say, the Liaodong Army has to deal with the Jurchens and the Khitans at the same time, and I don't know if Mingguan has the ability to block the two forces......"

Xue Yue learned of the information from Liaodong and fell into deep thought.

At their peak, the Jurchens and Khitans fought quite bravely, and if they joined forces, Mingguan was estimated to fall into a bitter battle.

"However, there are many military generals in the Ming and Qing dynasties in Mingguan, and there are servant troops provided by the Goryeo State, so they should be able to suppress the Jin and Liao ......."

Xueyue didn't worry much about Mingguan, after all, Mingguan was not so easy to defeat, but the situation in Liaodong was more complicated.

"The Xianbei tribe living in Yunzhong County and Yanmen County seems to be a little wrong recently."

"What's wrong?"

"Some tribes exchanged their skins, cattle and sheep for copper and iron from nearby counties."

"Maybe it's just for their own protection...... No, something is wrong. At such a moment, we should be more careful to ......"

Xueyue's scouts deployed in the state smelled an unusual smell.
