Even if the winged lion king retracted his wings, his speed was still very fast, and he traveled thousands of miles, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was galloping.

The place where Liu Yu came out of the Tianhuang Mountain Range, close to the west of the Great Ming Kingdom, was a place called Weiguo. After Liu Yu asked the way, he rode the Purple Winged Lion King and headed all the way to the northeast.

After walking for a few days, Liu Yu was very lucky, there was no obstacle along the way, and he successfully entered the territory of Daming. He arrived in Yunzhou in the Ming Dynasty, and Beiyan County was in the north of Yunzhou, which was not too far away.

Liu Yu rode the purple-winged lion king and entered the city, ready to buy some supplies, rest by the way, and eat some food. When the people around him saw the strange beast he was sitting on, they all made way for him, which made him quite uncomfortable.

Coming to a small restaurant, Liu Yu asked the Purple Winged Lion King to guard outside, and walked straight in. When the shopkeeper saw Liu Yu walking in, and saw Liu Yu wearing luxurious clothes, he greeted him very warmly, and shouted diligently, "Is the guest officer sharpening or staying in the hotel?" ”

Liu Yu smiled, "I'll eat and serve all the best meals in your store." Hurry up, I'm in a hurry. ”

This is a big customer, and if you serve well, it is estimated that the reward money is indispensable. ushered in the guests, and the shopkeeper had already trained a pair of fiery eyes. immediately responded, "Don't worry, the guest officer will be fine immediately, and you will be satisfied." ”

Liu Yu found a quiet position, sat down, and waited quietly. Overheard the voices of several people in the vicinity talking.

"This Yan Kingdom is too much, and it even goes to war without declaring it."

"That is, six or seven years ago, the Ming Yan War, the old emperor of Yan died, the new monarch ascended the throne, and reconciled with my Ming Dynasty, and my Ming agreed. I didn't expect Yan Guo, a white-eyed wolf, to attack me Daming after licking his wounds. ”

"The most hateful thing is the people in the imperial court, Chen Dashuai of the Northern Army is struggling to resist in the front, and they haven't even sent troops"

"That is, the most hateful thing is that Zhao Guiren dares to fight for power with His Majesty with the support of Wu Zhou's family. His Majesty sent troops several times, but they didn't agree, so they had to arrange their own people to be the commanders."

"That Zhao Guiren despises the imperial power, and the Wu family is also an accomplice, so he really deserves to be killed!"

"That's right, these rebels and thieves should be killed"

Liu Yu on the side, the more he listened, the more wrong he became, he didn't expect that he had only been gone for a long time, and so many things had happened, and the Yan Kingdom had invaded. Liu Yu couldn't sit still, and hurriedly ran to a table next to him to ask for advice.

"A few brothers, it's polite" Liu Yu first saluted these people, and this hand obviously made several people very useful.

Seeing Liu Yu dressed luxuriously, he was obviously either rich or expensive. A few people didn't dare to pretend to be big, and they got up one after another, "Brother, don't be polite"

Liu Yu didn't go around the bend, and said directly with a single knife, "A few brothers, just a few people said that the Yan Kingdom invaded, what is going on, can you solve the confusion below?"

"How could Brother Tai not know about this, this incident has been happening for more than ten days." Several people were obviously surprised that Liu Yu did not know about the invasion of the Yan Kingdom.

Regarding the questions of several people, Liu Yu could only open his eyes and say nonsense, "A few brothers, I have been studying in other countries, and now I have just come back, and I don't know many things"

As soon as they heard that Liu Yu was studying in another country, several people were instantly in awe. In this year, studying abroad is similar to studying abroad in a previous life. That's either a talented, or a rich and powerful lord!

"It turns out that Brother Tai is actually studying in another country, no wonder he doesn't know that the invasion of Yan has been rumored."

"Brother, it was about half a month ago! Yan suddenly went to war without declaring a war, occupied the Tianbi Pass, the throat of the northern part of our Ming Dynasty, in one fell swoop, and occupied two county towns in one day. Fortunately, Marshal Chen of the Northern Army found out in time, otherwise, I am afraid that the entire Beiyan County would have fallen."

"Wait a minute, Tianbi Pass is the throat of the north, how can it be defeated by the Yan Kingdom."

"Brother Tai, you don't know, right" The person who spoke was speechless to Liu Yu, and said as if he was deliberately pretentious, "Six or seven years ago, Yan Guo took the initiative to reconcile with my Ming Dynasty, and in order to show his sincerity, he withdrew all the defenders of their Qingfeng Pass. In order to show the demeanor of a great country, most of the defenders of Tianbi Pass also withdrew. ”

"What" Liu Yu was surprised when he heard the answer, "It's not such a child's play!" It's someone's business to withdraw their troops, what should we withdraw! I said why the main force of the Northern Army was stationed outside the county town, instead of Tianbi Pass, so that's the case! ”

The more I think about Liu Yu, the more angry I become, and the demeanor of a great country, not all of them are the lowest kingdoms. For the sake of face, he almost gave up the pass. What do the ministers in the court think?

"Then Your Majesty sent troops several times, but was stopped by Zhao Guiren, what's going on?"

As soon as Liu Yuyan asked, he found that several people suddenly became indignant: "Zhao Guiren, a slut, wants to get involved in military power, His Majesty sent troops, and Zhao Guiren has to appoint Wu Jiangchao as a general." His Majesty disagreed, and the Wu and Zhou families, who supported Zhao Guiren, prevaricated for various reasons, saying that they could not send troops. Are they going to make fools all over the world? ”

Liu Yu then asked, "Then Marshal Chen, can you support it in Beiyan County?"

Several people obviously also said their anger: "Marshal Chen only has an army of 300,000, and Tianbi Pass and two dangerous county towns have also been lost, except for Qingyun County, which is at the front, there is basically no danger to defend." The other side has an army of 600,000, 600,000! You say you can't stand it. Marshal Chen had few troops and did not dare to fight a decisive battle, so he could only drag it slowly"

Hearing their words, Liu Yu frowned, obviously this answer surprised Liu Yu. Liu Yu immediately saluted these people, "Thank you, a few of you want to sue", and after speaking, he walked out quickly.

This is the shopkeeper who is serving the food, and when he saw Liu Yu walking out, he was startled, "Guest officer, aren't you eating?" ”

"Don't eat, I'm in a hurry"

"Ahh You can't stop eating! If you don't eat it, what should I do"

"The food money is for you, you are indispensable" Liu Yu's words came from afar, and with a piece of silver, it was still in.

The shopkeeper caught the silver, bit "really" hard, and immediately carefully put it into his arms. I didn't forget to shout loudly and respectfully, "The guest officer walks slowly, and he often comes when he is free." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yu outside stumbled, "I really treat Lao Tzu as a big wrongdoer." ”

Liu Yu rode on the Purple Winged Lion King and bought a few steamed buns on the side of the street. Prepare to gnaw slowly while hurrying.

At the same time, Beiyan County, Qingyun County.

At this time, the city wall of Qingyun County, which was originally only five zhang high, has been added to eight zhang at this moment, which is one zhang higher than most of the county towns in the mainland.

However, the eight-zhang high city wall could not stop the enemy attack outside the city. The arrows as dense as rain pressed the Ming army on the city to raise their heads, and the shields and shields were on their heads to block the front, and the defender crossbowmen could only blindly release arrows through the lookout holes on the city wall, and slightly returned the color.

The Ming army defending the city fought to the death, rolling logs, nail rakes and all the means that could block the Yan army were used, but the enemy was outnumbered, and the strength was very different, one day, two days, three days

After more than ten days of attack, the Yan army commander has used all methods, and Qingyun County is not only as solid as a rock, but also in continuous reinforcement. Now the commander of the Yan army has only one way, and that is to drive the people of the Ming Kingdom to rush to the city with cloth bags full of sand and soil, and pile up a high slope under the city wall.

Immeasurable, bags full of sand were piled up under the walls, no matter how high the walls or how deep the moats were, enough to spread a slow slope of sand and earth under them, and at last they would easily step on the city.

Although this is only a clever method, it is time-consuming and laborious, but it makes it possible to step on the head of the city. Of course, the Yan army outside Qingyun City was willing to resort to this method at the moment, and that was also because they found that driving the people of the Ming Kingdom to fill the soil bags for them not only greatly reduced their own casualties, but also greatly reduced the morale of the Ming army.

At noon, there was a brief silence in front of the county town of Jiutai, but the atmosphere before the bloody battle was more and more solemn. After the meal, I only heard the sound of horns, and suddenly there was a rush of shouts and killings outside the city.

The defenders are no longer passively evading, they are the elite of the Northern Army, facing the Yan army that is driving the people and overwhelmingly coming, thousands of Ming soldiers with bows and arrows in their hands, under the leadership of the chief officer in the army, are waiting without fear.

The people driven by the Yan army were getting closer and closer, and they saw that the leading leader of the Ming army was a little hesitant, and the long sword in his hand slashed into the void with some trembling, and shouted: "Release."

All of a sudden, it was dark. The Yan army in the distance seemed to be pushed by an invisible giant hand, and the momentum of the charge was instantaneous, and the Yan army at the front fell in rows. Of course, the people of the Ming Kingdom suffered the most casualties.

The crossbow is limited, and it can't be fired in bursts, so you have to recuperate after a few shots. The commander of the Yan army obviously knew this, so he turned a blind eye to the soldiers who died in battle. As for the people of the Ming Kingdom, the roots are not within his consideration.

Slowly, the slopes on the east, west and north sides have been built, leaving only the south wall empty, and the trick of encircling three missing one is almost the consensus of all the leading generals, this knows no borders.

Finally, the Yan army followed the soil slope and successfully attacked the city. The 20,000 defenders were all wiped out, and Qingyun County, the last barrier of Beiyan County, was finally controlled by the Yan army.
