The aerial firearms were thrown to weaken the condescending superiority on the city walls, and under the cover of the churning waves of fire, the Hedong army finally climbed the city walls and gradually began to expand their gains.

The attack from the main city gate to the urn city, the Hexi army fought extremely hard, because the direction of the explosives under the tunnel was much off, and the city wall was not much damaged, they had to use the siege ladder to attack the urn city.

The Hedong army that attacked the city wall quickly attacked the side of the urn city to resolve the resistance encountered by the Hexi army, and under the attack on both sides, the Yan army was finally difficult to resist, and the urn city was also conquered, and the two armies officially entered the city of Yunzhou, and began to seek the enemy along the street.

Once the city wall was breached, the fighting spirit of the Yan army would gradually be lost, and many soldiers gave up resistance and began to surrender.

Tian Yue always stuck to the northern city wall, and Li Siye sent his son to attack on this side, mainly to contain the strength of the Yan army, so even if it was a tentative attack, the fight was extremely fierce.

More than a dozen hot air balloons all floated above the city wall, and the bombardier smashed the fierce fire and thunder below, causing the Yan army to suffer heavy losses, and even Tian Yue could only hide in the city tower, and scolded loudly in a manic manner: "Where did Li Siye's father and son come from so many strange things in the dog day!" ”

Several defeated generals dodged the flames and ran to the tower, the cloak behind their shoulders had already been burned to the point that only a rope remained, and the bombardier on the hot air balloon saw them as if he saw the enemy, and the fire and thunder beckoned down vigorously, and they ran and jumped to avoid the fire and thunder, and one of them exploded at the gate of the tower. The two generals threw themselves into the tower with flames burning behind their backs.

As soon as they entered the door, they rolled on the ground to extinguish the fire, and several of Tian Yue's personal soldiers hurriedly went up and waved sheep felt to fight, and finally extinguished the flames, and the two of them also grinned in pain.

They staggered to their feet, knelt down on one knee in front of Tian Yue and crossed their hands and said, "Major General!" The West City Gate and the South Urn City were broken by the Hedong Army and the Hexi Army, and they were killing this side, Yunzhou City could not be saved, and the major general was asked to make plans in advance. ”

Tian Yue's eyes widened and said angrily: "Are you trying to persuade you to abandon the city and flee?" ”

"Major General, once the city is broken, the morale of the soldiers is lost and they are unable to hold on, the situation can no longer be reversed, and the troops can only be saved by withdrawing their troops."

"Shut up! If I give up like this, how can I be worthy of my uncle's trust! ”

"Have you ever thought about it, if you and the army are lost in this Yunzhou City, you will be sorry for Dr. Tian's entrustment! As long as you and your brothers are still there, we still have a chance to recapture Yunzhou, if everyone is lost here, there is really no chance. ”

The general was bitter in order to survive, but what he said was indeed very reasonable. Tian Yue tugged at his beard and lowered his head and hesitated, and the people around him looked at him with anticipation.

Outside, the shouts of killing shook the sky, and the fierce fire and thunder thrown by the enemy army blew through the roof, and the rubble fell one after another, smashing everyone into hiding.

Tian Yue finally stopped hesitating, took out the horizontal knife from his waist and shouted to everyone: "Then fight your way out of the encirclement and retreat to Youzhou." ”

The Hexi army outside the north city gate was strong, and they couldn't force themselves out of the city, so Tian Yue had to choose the direction of the east city gate as a breakthrough and organize forces to forcibly break out of the city.

The strength of the Hexi army surrounding the east gate was slightly weak, and the Yan army rushed out of the city and quickly detoured to the north, and the generals of the east gate line hurriedly sent people to report to Li Siye after the interception failed, asking whether they should concentrate their forces on chasing and blocking.

When Li Siye heard this, he ordered: "Poor Kou Mo chase, our goal of capturing Yunzhou City has been achieved, and there is no need to make extraneous branches." ”

The battle in the city soon ended, and most of the Yan troops who did not flee began to surrender to the Hexi army in formation. Li Siye's Daxu entered through the north gate, and he climbed the tower surrounded by the generals and looked to the north.

He said confidently: "Yunzhou Youzhou is the barrier of the north, we have won Yunzhou, Youzhou is also close at hand, the north is just around the corner." ”

A general came forward to report the losses and captures to him, and the three armies in this battle sacrificed more than 4,000 people, wiped out more than 15,000 Yan troops, and captured nearly 7,000 people.

Shi Siming sent a large army to attack Hedong, and used Yunzhou as a place to hoard grain and grass, and now there are still 500,000 grains in the city, and Li Siye got these grains and grasses, and obtained a solid guarantee for the next capture of Youzhou.

……

After Tian Chengsi returned to Youzhou, he immediately went to meet the emperor Shi Siming, who was sitting in Youzhou City, and explained the reasons for the failure of the attack on Taiyuan.

Shi Siming didn't get angry, he got up from the chair and walked to Tian Chengsi's side, patted him on the shoulder and said: "In the final analysis, I made a mistake, Taiyuan City is well defended, and Li Siye is a tiger and a tiger." Our preparations for the attack were not sufficient, and I was also out of a moment of anger, and now that I think about it, it is really impossible to raise troops out of anger. ”

Shi Siming was angry when he thought of his son, and then looked at Li Siye's son next door, this is the true inheritance of his father. This Shi Chaoyi's actions really made him wonder if it was his own species. As for the high branch of the Tongluo cavalry and Bi Qige, who led the Khitan and Xi tribes to drag down the river, they completely deserved it.

This incident also taught him a real lesson, all kinds of friendly troops invited from outside with money are not trustworthy and useless, and in the end they actually dragged him back, which is really a loss of money and a lot of money.

Although Shi Siming blamed himself so much, Tian Chengsi didn't dare to believe that the responsibility was his, and he had to take the initiative to bow down and apologize: "Your Majesty, I am the main general in this battle, and I am naturally duty-bound, but it is my failure to discipline and warn Gao Zhi and Bi Jingge, which caused them to be arrogant and arrogant, arrogant and underestimate the enemy, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treated them leniently along the way, which fueled their arrogance." ”

Shi Siming scolded in his stomach: "The turtle son has disgraced Lao Tzu." ”

He turned around and comforted Tian Chenghei and said: "It doesn't matter if Taiyuan is not defeated, as long as Yunzhou is still in our hands, we can be ready to accumulate strength to attack Hedong at any time. ”

Tian Chengsi patted his chest and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, Yunzhou City is impregnable, there are 500,000 grains, and 40,000 Youyan men are stationed, no matter how capable his son Li Siye is, don't want to knock Yunzhou down." ”

"In this case, you can go back to Yunzhou as soon as possible to garrison, and I can rest assured that you are there to guard."

Tian Chengsi was just about to retire and leave, when a eunuch raised by Shi Siming hurriedly ran over to report: "Your Majesty, news has come from Yunzhou City, Li Siye has gathered 120,000 troops to besiege Yunzhou, the city is now broken, and General Tian Yue has led the remnants to withdraw from Yunzhou. ”

"Impossible! How can it be! Tian Chengsi pleaded in disbelief: "Li Chongbao has only led the army into Taiyuan not long ago, even if he easily controls the Hedong army, it is impossible to gather 120,000 people. Besides, Yunzhou City has a strong barrier, and my nephew Tian Yue is stationed there! Tian Yue, you know, Your Majesty, although his ability is still immature, his ability to defend the city is first-class. ”

Shi Siming couldn't hide his anger at first, and when he saw Tian Chengsi covering up his defense in front of him, he couldn't help laughing, and kept patting the other party's shoulder with his hand, which made Tian Chengsi even more frightened and afraid.
