Everyone was shocked and said in surprise: "The Turks attacked Liangzhou City?"

"The Turks are attacking the Great Zhou?"

"If the Turks attack them from behind, the city of Liangzhou will be destroyed."

The lord of the kingdom was surprised, "The Turks helped us attack Liangzhou? How is this possible? But they made a peace treaty, and that is impossible."

Darzan said: "Sister Wang, you shouldn't have slept well last night, talk in your dreams, the Turks are attacking Da Zhou, how is this possible."

The generals were also puzzled, looked at each other, and said, "Yes, how is this possible?"

The eldest princess said: "Not only you, including Li Yan, think it is impossible, but, as the saying goes, soldiers do not tire of deceit, between countries, there are only eternal interests, and there is absolutely no love to talk about, Li Yan They don't believe that the Turks will betray them, then we will use tricks to make him believe, and we just need to give the Turks some sweetness, and it is not difficult for them to borrow a way."

Everyone was shocked, and Darzan wondered, "Let that Li Yan believe? This, how is this possible, and we don't know how to spell, how can he believe us? Why do you borrow the way? Are we going to run north to attack? What if the Turks and the Great Zhou join forces to attack us? Aren't they making dumplings?"

All the generals nodded yes, and the eldest princess said calmly: "Brother Wang, let me ask you, for the Turks, is it that we are the greatest threat to Tibet, or that the Great Zhou is a great threat to it."

Darzan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Of course it's the Great Zhou, and our Tubo and their Turks don't border, how can we threaten them?"

The eldest princess nodded and said: "That's right, according to our detailed return in the Turks, although the Turks signed a contract with the Great Zhou, many people in the Turkic country, especially some tribal leaders, are very dissatisfied with this contract, thinking that it is in the way and blocking their financial path, so they have been trying to persuade the Turkic Khan to change his mind, and the Turkic Khan seems to be shaken in his heart. Let's pass the army, so that it is not a breach of contract, and it will be successful."

The lord of Tibet wondered, "Why do you have to borrow the Turks? Do you want to encircle and annihilate it? It's just that our front line is too long, and it's not good for us."

The eldest princess said mysteriously, "This daughter naturally understands that this is a plan to cover up, bluff, and confuse the enemy."

Darzan was surprised, "Confusing the enemy?"

The eldest princess said firmly, "Yes."

One morning, the east city of Liangzhou City

The gates were closed, and the soldiers on the city walls were patrolling in formation, ready for battle, and the defense was tight.

At this time, he saw a low horn sound from the northwest direction, and all the soldiers on the city wall were startled, and hurriedly looked into the distance, but saw the Tibetan army in the dark sky in the distance slowly moving forward.

The general defending the city was shocked and hurriedly said, "The Tibetan army has attacked, hurry, light the wolf smoke, and the whole army is ready to meet the enemy."

The generals hurriedly said, "It's the general." Busy preparing for the battle, on the battlements, thick wolf smoke rose one after another......

On the city wall of Liangzhou City

Li Yan was patrolling the city defense with a few generals, and Li Yan said to the soldiers: "The Tubo army will soon attack, everyone cheers up, we must not let them step into Liangzhou City for half a step, the enemy will kill one by one, and we will kill a pair if they come, you know?"

All the officers and soldiers shouted in unison, "Kill, kill, kill......

Li Yan was satisfied: "Good ......."

At this time, they saw a wolf smoke rising from the east, and the generals were startled when they saw it, and one of the generals hurriedly said, "Look, marshal."

Li Yan looked serious, nodded and said, "Tubo really did it." Turning to look to the west, he saw wolf smoke also rising in the west, and said in surprise, "They actually started together."

The general hurriedly said, "Marshal, do you want to send troops to support them?"

Li Yan said: "Don't worry, although the defense of the east and west cities is not as good as Liangzhou City, but the walls of the city are also thick and the materials are sufficient, I believe they can support it for three or five days, they attack the two cities at the same time, the troops will be scattered, we will wait for them for a few days, and it is not too late to attack when their siege is blocked and their morale is low."

All the generals nodded yes.

East Side

The Tibetan generals commanded groups of Tibetan troops to attack the city, holding shields, pushing the cart and hitting the city gate, the city gate shook, and the Zhou army inside withstood ......

The Tibetan soldiers held shields and scimitars, climbed the ladder, and stormed the city wall, but they were killed by the Zhou army shooting arrows and throwing stones on the city wall, and their bodies kept falling......

The Tibetan archers approached and the Zhou archers on the city wall fired at each other, and the catapults threw stones and fire bombs and flew towards the city......

The two armies fought and shouted for killing, which was very tragic......

Three days later, on the city wall of Liangzhou

Li Yan and the generals stood on the city wall, looking at the wolf smoke on both sides, with serious expressions.

One of the generals hurriedly said, "Today is the third day, please give the marshal an order to support."

The generals said in unison, "The marshal gives the order."

Li Yan looked at it, nodded and said, "Send the order, immediately start cooking on the stove, let the soldiers have a full meal of war food, attack the enemy army at noon, and relieve the siege of Xicheng."

The general was surprised, "Xicheng? What about the East Side?"

Li Yan said seriously: "They must have thought that we would save Dongcheng first and open up the connection with the Central Plains, so on the road to Dongcheng, there must be heavy troops in ambush, so we will first relieve the siege of Xicheng, and then join forces to break the enemy in ambush, and the siege of Dongcheng can be easily lifted."

All the soldiers were stunned for a moment, and they all nodded yes.

At this time, I saw a soldier running from the street below, running to the city wall, turning over and dismounting, going straight to the city wall, running to Li Yan, bowing down and saying, "Marshal, urgent military situation." As he spoke, he took out a piece of yellow leather paper and handed it over.

Li Yan took it and unfolded it, and was surprised when she saw it, "It's not good."

The general wondered, "What's wrong?"

Li Yan said solemnly: "The Turks are going to attack us from the north, and we will suffer from the enemy on our backs."

The generals were shocked, and one of the generals was surprised, "How is it possible? Didn't we have a contract with them?"

Li Yan hurriedly said: "Since ancient times, soldiers have never tired of cheating, why didn't I consider that the Turks would suddenly change their faces......

The generals looked at each other, at a loss, but at this time, they saw a low horn sound from the northwest.

Li Yan was startled, and hurriedly turned to look, but saw the Tubo army in the northwest sky.

The generals were startled and hurriedly shouted, "Prepare for battle, prepare for battle."

The soldiers hurriedly took their positions, drew their bows and arrows, unsheathed their swords, and prepared to meet the battle.

After a while, I saw the Tubo army come to a distance below and stopped, separated in the middle, and at the commander's banner, I saw the Tubo prince riding a black-headed horse out and shouting to the city, "Li Yan'er? Get out of the city and surrender quickly."

Li Yan was puzzled, "Prince Tubo?" After a little thought, he shouted, "It turned out to be the prince of Tubo, fortunately, it is inconvenient for this commander to go down and surrender, why don't you enter the city and surrender, right?"

Darzan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Li Yan, I think you are a general, so I asked you to surrender, if you are not interested, if you insist on resisting, there is only a dead end."

Li Yan said with a smile: "Prince Xie loves him, but, as the saying goes, a good minister does not care about the second master, and a good woman does not serve the second husband, and I, Li Yan, am not talented, I am afraid that I will disappoint you, the prince."

Darzan scolded: "Okay, I'll make your mouth hard, see if I don't break your Liangzhou City, tear down your bones, let's see." So saying, he pulled the horse's head and withdrew.

After Darzan entered, the Tibetan army did not attack, stopped, and actually began to drive piles, pull up tents, and arrange fortifications, but actually wanted to besiege them.

The general wondered, "It's strange, why don't they attack the city, do they want to besiege us?"

Li Yan pondered, faintly feeling uneasy in his heart, but at this time, he saw a sound of horns coming from the north behind him, Li Yan was startled, and hurriedly said, "Quick, let's go to the north and have a look." He led the generals and hurried down the city wall.

After a while, Li Yan and the other generals climbed the northern city wall, and looked from a distance, but saw no less than 50,000 Turkic soldiers lined up in the distance, stretching into the distance, and I don't know how many, among which the handsome banner of the Turkic Khan was raised.

Li Yan was surprised, "Is it really a Turkic army?" After a moment's thought, he hurriedly shouted

"On the other side is the Turkic army, please come out of your marshal, this general has something to talk to."

After waiting for a while, no one answered, and one of the generals hurriedly said, "Are you dumb? Tell your marshal to come out and talk back." After waiting for a while, no one came out.

Li Yan was puzzled for a while, and said in surprise, "It's strange, why is there no one?"

The general hurriedly said: "It must be that they are treacherous, they have no face to see us, it is really hateful, after defeating the Tibetans, I must lead the army to pacify the Turks."

Li Yan wondered, "Treachery?"

Late at night, the Marshal's Mansion in Liangzhou City

Li Yan sat alone in front of the battle map and muttered, "Treachery, treachery......

At this time, he saw the general hurriedly come in and bow, and said, "The last general has seen the marshal."

Li Yan hurriedly said, "General Wu, you're here, sit down."

General Wu hurriedly said, "Marshal Xie." As he spoke, he sat aside and said hurriedly, "Marshal, tomorrow will be the fourth day, and if we don't support it, I'm afraid they won't be able to reach the fifth day."

Li Yan nodded and said, "I know, it's just that I always feel that something doesn't seem right."

General Wu was puzzled, "Isn't that right? That's wrong."

Li Yan pondered, "It's treachery, the Turks have always been friendly with our Great Zhou, how could they suddenly break the contract and send troops to attack us?"

General Wu said angrily: "What's impossible about this, they are all a bunch of wolf ambitions, and they have been eyeing us for a long time, this time it must have been discussed, and they will rob while the fire is hot."

Li Yan was puzzled: "Rob while the fire is on? But all this time, why didn't the Turks show any signs, they seemed to have appeared out of nowhere...... Ah, no,"

General Wu was surprised, "What's wrong?"

Li Yan hurriedly said, "Quick, quickly gather people and horses, immediately kill out of the city, and gallop to the aid of Xicheng."

General Wu was surprised, "Xicheng?"

Li Yan hurriedly said: "We have been tricked, the men and horses brought by the prince of Tubo are simply bluffing, covering people's eyes and ears, their focus is to break our east and west cities, and it is very likely that the north side is not a Turkic army, they are just a trick to delay us." General Wu was taken aback.

After a while, the city gate was opened, and Li Yan led the army out of the northwest city gate and killed the brightly lit Tubo camp......

After a while, he rushed into the camp, but saw that there were no people inside, empty, only empty tents, flags fluttering in the wind, and some war horses walking around at will.

The soldiers looked at each other and said in surprise, "Why is there no one?"

"Where are the people?"

Just when everyone was surprised, they saw a group of men and horses running on the left, and the leading general ran over to look at it, and said in surprise: "Marshal, this is ......."

Li Yan was shocked for a while, and said hurriedly, "General Lu, is the north also empty?"

The general hurriedly said, "The last general is trying to report to the general."

Li Yan regretted it for a while, and said with annoyance, "I was fooled."

The generals wondered, "Fooled?"

"Why did you fall for it?"

At this time, he saw a horse galloping from behind, and the soldier jumped off his horse and bowed down to report: "Report to the marshal, Xicheng Dongcheng was lost, General Xicheng Wang led the army to break through, only 5,000 men and horses remained, General Dongcheng Lin led the army to break through the siege, and the chaotic army was hit by an arrow...... He died and came back with only 3,000 men."

The generals were shocked, and General Wu was surprised: "There are 50,000 horses in each of the East and West Cities, and only 8,000 are left? This ......."

Li Yan hurriedly said: "As soon as the two cities of the east and west are broken, they will come over soon, and everyone will return to the city immediately and prepare for war quickly."

The generals came to their senses and hurriedly said, "Yes." Hurriedly turned the horse's head and led the army to the city.

Late at night, the city wall of Liangzhou City

The torches on the city wall were bright, and Li Yan and the others stood on the city wall, waiting for the battle, watching the night in the distance.

At this time, they saw the sound of low horns in all directions, and the generals were startled and looked at each other.

At this time, I saw that there was a sudden fire on the opposite side, and a large group of Tibetan troops rushed over, set up a formation, and then separated in the middle, under the banner of Shuai, Dahl

Zan rode out on a big horse and said with a smile, "How is it, our bluff trick is okay to cover up, right? Your army of 100,000 in the east and west cities has been slain like vegetables by us."

Li Yan said: "It's not that Ben Shuai looks down on you, I think, this clever plan must not have been thought up by your straw bag head, it must have been thought of by the eldest princess, right?"

Darzan was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "No matter who comes up with it, what can catch you Li Yan is a good plan, you are now 300,000 troops, only more than 200,000 are left, and you are surrounded by my Tubo 800,000 army, trapped in Liangzhou City, a small place, and it is difficult to fly with wings, this prince advises you, it is better to surrender obediently."

Li Yan sneered: "What a big breath, okay, that handsome man will wait to see how your 800,000 army can break through Liangzhou City, which is guarded by my 200,000 army."

Darzan scolded: "Okay, you Li Yan, you refuse to surrender, okay, this prince will fulfill you, send an order, set up camp immediately, and attack the city early tomorrow morning."

The generals replied in unison, "Yes."
