Chapter Eighty-Nine: Blackmail

Just now, they were all excited, and they had to fight hard with Jiannu immediately with a knife, why are they all wilting now?

"Li Shu!"

"The minister is here!"

"Alone, you lead a total of 20,000 troops to Anzhou to defend against the enemy."

"Minister, obey!"

"This time, Lone won't run away anymore." Li Liang looked at the ministers who bowed their heads and said categorically. Li Shu is his hardcore, in charge of the General Rong Army, and he is also his most elite unit.

After Ding Mao's chaos, Li Liang was angry. It adopted a defensive strategy of giving way to the main road, building mountain fortresses, and equipping them with firearms, such as moving Uiju to Baekba Mountain Fortress, Pyongyang to Jimu Mountain Fortress, Hwangju Mountain Fortress, and Pyongsan Mountain to Jangsang Mountain Fortress, and strengthening the fortifications of the two major fortresses of Ganghwa Island and Namhansan Fortress. Coupled with the 20,000 troops of Li Shu's training team, he had the confidence to fight Jiannu.

On the second day, Li Shu led 20,000 general troops to march in the direction of Anzhou.

There is a river outside Anju Castle called Cheongcheon River.

Li Shu should be grateful to this river, because if it weren't for this river that slightly blocked Huang Taiji's iron cavalry, I am afraid that Anzhou City would have been captured by the time Li Shu arrived. But even so, the situation in Anju City is not optimistic.

The day after he arrived, Huang Taiji was already in the city.

Li Shu opened his position, intending to defend to the death. Come on! Let's fight to the death!

But he found that Huang Taiji had no intention of attacking the city at all.

He guessed correctly, Huang Taiji divided the 10,000 cavalry into two routes, one way cut off the water source in the city outside the city, and the other way bypassed Anzhou City and continued to plunder the troops south.

I'm here to rob, not to siege the city, and you're guarding your mother on the walls?

Li Shu also suddenly realized this problem. The other side is all cavalry, and it seems that there is no intention of attacking the city?

What to do?

The best way is to go out of the city and fight a decisive battle and destroy the Jiannu.

It seemed to him like a joke.

For the next two days, Huang Taiji was quietly stationed outside the city, on guard day and night, and did not give Li Shu a chance to take advantage of it at all.

Li Shu was in a hurry in the city, thinking with his toes that he also knew what the other half of the Jiannu cavalry outside the city was doing now. If there are heavy losses in the rear, then what's the point of defending the city yourself?

He felt like he couldn't wait any longer!

Out of town!

Send messengers out of the city.

Ask what Kennu means!

"Be strong!? Got it? Before leaving, Li Shu repeatedly told the envoy Song Qiuyuan.

Huang Taiji was quietly staring in the direction of the city gate, because there was a person out there.

"Can't hold on?" The corners of Huang Taiji's mouth hooked into a mocking smile and muttered. Suddenly remembered Man Gui, who was across the river from him a few days ago, his smile disappeared again, and his mood became bad again.

Song Qiuyuan came to the Huangtaiji tent after a strict search.

"The Korean envoy Song Qiuyuan knocked on the Great Khan!" Song Qiuyuan didn't say a word, pushed Jin Shan and knelt down in front of Huang Taiji like a jade pillar, and said loudly.

"Get up. Why did the Song envoy come? ”

"This time I came to ask the king. Why did the Great Khan suddenly lead an army to attack our court? ”

"Our slaves under Houjin have escaped again, and you dare to accept it? Ben Khan also heard that you had private dealings with the Ming army on Phi Island? Aren't you afraid of hurting the feelings between my brothers by doing this? Huang Taiji said sadly and indignantly, his acting skills were clumsy.

Nima's, the year before last hit us for this reason, can't you change the trick?

"Great Khan Mingjian, our dynasty did not contain the slaves under the rule of the Great Khan."

"Really?"

"It's true!"

"Isn't that a misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding!"

"And how much compensation can you give?"

"Huh?" You have burned and looted on our territory for so many days and still have to pay compensation?

"Ben Khan has come with his troops this time, and it has taken a lot of money, so he can't go back empty-handed, right?"

"It's... I wonder what the Great Khan wants? ”

"Well, two requests. First, compensate our army for 300,000 denier of food. Second, you and I are open to each other in all seasons. ”

"This, I can't be the master!" What are you kidding, 300,000 denier of grain, isn't this a lion's mouth.

"So what are you doing here? Dragged out and chopped. ”

Song Qiuyuan knelt down again and kept kowtowing.

"The Great Khan spares his life! The Great Khan spares his life! Let me go back and tell the king. Let the king decide! ”

Huang Taiji looked at the kowtow-like Song Qiuyuan and sneered. How dare you come to be a messenger?

"Let's go back. Go back and tell your king, that if you do not meet the demands of Ben Khan, the plundering will not cease for a day! ! ”

Song Qiuyuan ran out of the camp and returned to Anzhou City.

Li Shu saw Song Qiuyuan's trembling appearance, and he was angry.

"What did the Slave Chief say?"

Song Qiuyuan trembled and said Huang Taiji's request. Li Shu was so angry that he trembled!

"It's too much of a deception! It's too much of a deception! The order went down, and the soldiers of all departments gathered and went out of the city to fight! ”

Saying that, Li Shu was about to lead the army out of the city for a stop, but was stopped by the deputy general.

"General, don't be impulsive. Even if you have to fight, you have to make a good strategy! ”

Li Shu took advantage of the situation to calm down after some struggles and asked quietly.

"What's the best way to do it?"

"If you go out of the city at this time, you will be attacked by the other party, and you can't wait until tomorrow to break into camp at night while the other party is asleep. We will definitely be able to make a difference! ”

"Good! Then you will lead 10,000 soldiers and attack tomorrow! ”

"Yes! The last general will take the head of the slave chief and sacrifice it to the king! ”

On the second day, the lieutenant general led 10,000 soldiers to leave the city at night, and by the moonlight they were to the local camp.

Seeing that the other party's tent is close at hand, the achievement is at this time.

"Siba!! Rush with me! ”

The lieutenant shouted and rushed forward.

He's fast.

The cavalry that came from the flanks was also very fast.

It was so fast that even if the archers of the North Korean army were very good, they only had time to shoot two arrows.

An hour later, the sky was bright.

The Jiannu soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield, and from time to time someone made up for the Korean soldiers who were not dead.

The valiant lieutenant died in front of the city gates, his eyes fixed on the direction of the gates. It's like asking why you didn't open the door for him.

Li Shu didn't dare to open the door because he didn't want to die either.

Let's make a sum.

I really can't beat it.

The news of the defeat soon reached Li Kun. Li Wei pounded the table in pain and shed tears.

Is the center of the universe, the origin of mankind, and the birthplace of world civilization about to fall into the hands of Lone!?

"Tell Huang Taiji that we don't have so much food! Didn't kill it! ”

Even if he compensates, he has to be stubborn!

After a few days of bargaining, Huang Taiji of the Manchu nationality was satisfied with 100,000 stone of grain and embarked on the return journey.

You ask: How to get 100,000 stone of grain?

Isn't this the captivity?

Aren't you responsible for the door-to-door delivery of the grain that you North Korea has paid for?

Li Qi was so angry that he fell seriously ill, and he will always remember this shameful day, April 28.

Out of North Korea, Huang Taiji breathed a sigh of relief, although there was not much food for 100,000 deniers, at least he could be regarded as having an explanation when he went back.

A few days later, Li Liang sent two groups of people.

went all the way to find his suzerain's father, Daming, and the child was beaten! You don't care if your son asks you for help?

I went all the way to Phi Island, where there are my father's subordinates, a model of self-employment, and I am Brother Long!
