Li Siye sat face-to-face with these three people in front of the copper furnace, and asked them about the whole story, secretly happy in his heart, but sighed melancholy on the surface: "I can't imagine that Zhang Zhongzhi has been fighting for half his life, and he has not been able to prevent such a conspiracy and trickery, and the early death of the hero is really suffocating." You can rest assured that you will go back and inform Wang Wujun that after entering Yuguan, I will not treat the soldiers in the city badly. I will make a decree in Chang'an, and make Wang Wujun the envoy of the Lulong Festival, and reward the festival after entering the customs.

The three of them said: "King, it is urgent to enter Yuguan, Shi Chaoyi will soon send someone to take over, only by rushing in front of them, Yuguan can be at your fingertips." ”

"In this case, I will raise a large army to Yuguan tomorrow, and ask the three brothers to lead my army in front."

At this time, the heavy snow was flying, and the snow on the road could drown the knees, Li Siye personally led the troops to set off in armor, and walked forward against the goose feather snow, and the horse's hooves kicked the flying snowflakes forward, and the deep foot and shallow foot in the snowflakes of the northern country were moving forward.

Shi Chaoyi wanted to personally lead his troops to take over Yuguan, but the snow in the Yanshan area was too heavy, so he had to send his trusted prime minister Xue Song to Yuguan first, but he was delayed for a lot of time at the beginning of the trip.

Li Siye took advantage of the heavy snow to come to the front of the pass, and the generals guarding the pass relaxed their vigilance due to the heavy snowfall, so that the Ya barracks took the opportunity to come to the gate of the city, and the main general they elected, Wang Wujun, took the opportunity to hold Zhang Zhongzhi's fish talisman and seal letter in his hand, and shouted loudly: "General Zhang's fish talisman seal letter is here, he suffered from the evil thief Shi Chaoyi's plot, and specially ordered me to open the city to welcome the army of King Yong into the city to help." ”

"Nonsense, how could General Zhang give such an order, wait for the rebellion to retreat quickly!" The one who reprimanded Wang Wujun was a lieutenant general.

The generals are a special existence in the Youyan Army, they are usually well-equipped, their eyes are above the top, and the general captains and generals dare not point fingers at them, at this moment, this mad Zhonglang general can indeed be regarded as a warrior.

Wang Wujun untied the horn bow from his back, aimed it at the middle man and shot an arrow, hitting him in the eye socket. Lang covered his eyes with his hands in his eyes and screamed and fell from the city wall. A group of Ziya soldiers swarmed up, slashed him with knives, lifted open the gate of Tuoguan, opened the city gate and let Li Siye's army in.

The general who stayed in Yuguan was Zhang Zhongzhi's subordinates, and he knew that the Hexi army had entered the city, so he had no choice but to go to Li Siye and surrender.

So far, Li Siye, who had spent more than two months and spent countless shells to capture Yuguan, was taken by him within one day. At the same time, there were more than 40,000 Youyan troops who retreated to Yuguan.

Li Siye appointed Wang Junwu as the envoy of Pinglu Jiedu, and Zhang Jiyao, a general, as the deputy envoy of Jiedu, and he did not stop the pace of attack after leading the army into Yuguan, and directly took Wang Junwu's Yuguan army as the vanguard, heading towards Yingzhou.

The snow fell heavier in the eastern Liaodong region, and the marching soldiers advanced in the snow with deep legs and shallow feet, and the team of officials sent by Shi Chaoyi to take over Yuguan was also on this road, and they found traces of the Hexi army during the march, and immediately retreated with a keen sense of smell.

After Prime Minister Xue Song went back, he did not go to Shi Chaoyi, but went to see Tian Chengsi, and the two talked about something secretly in the dark room, and Tian Chengsi and Xue Song jointly went to see Shi Chaoyi.

After Xue Song saw Shi Chaoyi, he immediately said sadly: "Your Majesty, the Yuguan soldiers and the left-behind general Zhang Jiyao surrendered to Li Siye, and the Li army is now on the way to kill Yingzhou. ”

Shi Chaoyi was completely panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked Xue Song and Tian Chenghei: "Xue Gong, Tian Gong, what should we do now?" ”

The two had secretly discussed the countermeasures, and said to Shi Chaoyi: "Yingzhou is really not a place to stay for a long time, please move your majesty to Liaodong City quickly, and I and General Tian Chengsi will stay and guard Yingzhou City together." ”

Shi Chaoyi was afraid that Li Siye would lead the army to attack the city, but he had to show the toughness of a leader, and resolutely said: "As the lord, how can I escape from the battle, I want to defend the city with the second prince and the 30,000 soldiers of Dayan." ”

"By no means, Your Majesty." Tian Chengsi acted like the real thing, grabbed the ground and said excitedly: "The monarch is the foundation of the country, and you must not be in danger. These soldiers and horses in our hands may be able to defend the state for more than ten days. However, if you want to relieve the siege of Yingzhou, you still need Your Majesty to go to Liaodong City and order Li Huaixian to lead his troops to drive the enemy together. ”

Shi Chaoyi finally gave up staying behind, held the hands of the two veteran generals and said: "The two generals are waiting in the city, I, Shi Chaoyi, will definitely bring the troops back to rescue Yingzhou and drive away Li Siye." ”

He took the personal guard battalion he formed to Liaodong City, and just left Yingzhou for a day, and the next day Tian Chengsi and Xue Song opened the city gate and dedicated Yingzhou to Li Siye.

After Li Siye entered Yingzhou, he asked Feng Tian Chenghei to be the king of Yanmen County, and Xue Song to be the king of Pingyang County. These two are very happy, I didn't expect Li Siye to be so interesting, the surrender of the city was exchanged for two county kings, it can be said that it is a step in place, presumably he wants to stay in Hebei as an envoy, it is estimated that there is no problem.

On Shi Chaoyi's way to Liaodong, he heard that Xue Song and Tian Chengsi had surrendered to Li Siye, so he was so angry that he rode on his horse and shook his whip and said angrily: "Two old thieves misunderstood me!" ”

He now has no one around him to ask, so he has to make his own decision and go to Liaodong City to join Li Huaixian.

Chaoyi led the guard battalion to march day and night, and when he came to the city of Liaodong a few days later, he was already tired and hungry, and shouted to the city head in a hoarse voice: "Huaixian Gong, open the city gate and let me in!" ”

There was no movement at the gates, and the soldiers with strong bows looked down at him with cold expressions.

Shi Chaoyi panicked in his heart, and shouted loudly again: "I am your majesty, quickly open the city gate and let me in!" ”

One of the generals under Li Huaixian stood behind the battlement of the gate of the city tower, crossed his hands on his waist and said loudly: "Shi Chaoyi killed the king and killed his father, corrupted people's morals, and his crime should be punished." My general is unwilling to let your Shi family die before sparing your life, but it is impossible for him to be with you! Get out of here, or the bow and crossbow will wait. ”

"Duh! Little general, what qualifications do you have to shout to me, call Li Huaixian out, I want to interview him! ”

Naturally, the general was reluctant to shout a second time, and waved his hand: "Give me arrows!" ”

For a while, arrows flew down like rain on the city tower, Shi Chaoyi hurriedly fled with his own military camp, ran north for a distance before stopping, looked up at the vast sky and said sadly: "Is there no place for me in the world?" ”

The general of the guard battalion walked up to him and persuaded him: "Emperor Xiongwu once married his eldest daughter to the Khan of Murowei, and you are now the Khan's brother-in-law, why don't you go to Murowei, and then use the soldiers and horses of Murowei to go south and restore Dayan Sheji." ”

He didn't dare to think about restoring Dayan Sheji, but it was still possible to find a place to stay in the bitter cold land of the Snow Mountain in Muroweina.

Hearing that Shi Chaoyi was going to the bitter cold place of Murowei, the soldiers of the pro-soldier battalion under his command also began to think about it, taking advantage of the night camp when people kept fleeing, and when they arrived at the border of Murowei, there were only 300 of the 2,000 pro-soldiers left.

In the fifth year of Yuanshuo, which was also February of the first year of Li Yubaoying, Li Huaixian sent someone to send a letter of surrender to Li Siye, in exchange for the title of King of Wuwei County. In April, Li Siye led a large army to the border between Murowei and Heishui, and the Khan of Murowei came to surrender with Shi Chaoyi's head.

Li Siye crowned Muwei Khan as the king of Beimanjun and ordered him to continue to govern the vast primeval forests north of Liaodong. At this point, the entire Youyan and Liaodong fell into the hands of Li Siye, and now only he was left to compete with the southern court.
