When the city was captured, Zhou Yi first set up guards in various warehouses in the city. Immediately afterwards, the warehouse was opened to release grain, and in the early days of the occupation of the city by the Youjun army, the people of the city were still happy.

But with the passage of time, the nature of Youjun is gradually exposed, and he doesn't give money for eating or buying things, which are all pediatrics. The soldiers of Upper Valley County were still walking around the city in groups, either patrolling or wandering around, breaking into other people's homes at will, robbing women and food, and the men who dared to resist died.

Only then did the people of the city realize that their home country had long regarded them as traitors and did not treat them as family.

The granaries in the city were never full, and the rice jars in the homes of the people in the city were even more empty, and there were even tragedies of starvation.

When the Shanggu soldiers were exterminated and the Tang army entered the city, the people of the city just opened their numb eyes and watched blankly.

After Zhou Yi entered the city, he learned more about the situation in the city during this time from the scouts. The first order he gave was to open a warehouse and release grain, Daijun was already a territory of the Tang State, and the people of Daijun were of course the people of the Tang State.

As soon as the news of the opening of the warehouse and the release of grain spread, it quickly made the lifeless city lively. The people came to the grain distribution area set up by the Tang Army with cloth bags from house to house, and under the threat of bright knives and spears, they pressed their excited hearts and trembling hands to line up to receive grain.

"Da! Da! Boom!"

Peng Chong quickly entered the Dangcheng County Ya, and saluted Zhou Yi, who was standing in front of the map and studying the next strategy: "Marshal, the second and third divisions have been assembled and can set off at any time."

Zhou Yi looked at the map and didn't turn around, only a voice came: "Peng Chong, do you think the prince of Youguo has received the news that the city has been lost?"

Peng Chong thought for a moment and said, "If you return to the commander, the last general feels that the prince of Youguo has definitely received the news, and he must be eager to send troops to the city."

Zhou Yi raised his hand, holding a letter between his fingers, and said, "Look, this is the latest information, and the scout sent it quickly."

Peng Chong bowed forward, took the information, spread out the letter and read it, and after reading it, he said with a solemn face: "This prince of Youguo really attaches great importance to the city, and he actually sent Duan Yilu here, but he sent an army of 20,000 people, so he is so confident?"

Zhou Yi turned around, shook his head, and said, "It's not that he is confident, it's that he believes that Duan Yilu can take away the city with 20,000 troops. Again, after such a long siege, the Youjun army should suffer heavy losses, and 20,000 people are already the limit."

Peng Chong said with a look of war, "That commander, let's eat these 20,000 people, and we can completely defeat the Youjun army?"

Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "The fact that these 20,000 Youjun were wiped out by us doesn't mean that we can win, the main force of the Youjun Army is still in the hands of the Prince of Youguo. It's useless to think about the future, so take care of the present. How should we fight these 20,000 ghost troops?"

Peng Chong thought for a while and said, "Marshal, why don't we come to a surround point to help?"

When Zhou Yi heard this, he frowned and asked, "How to fight?" Make it clear."

Peng Chong stepped forward and leaned into Zhou Yi's ear and muttered......

When the city was lost, this news scorched the top of the Youjun army.

Yan Wuhuan looked at the defeated soldier who reported the news in front of him, and the whole person felt very bad, he was furious, hateful and scolded: "Waste! Rubbish! It's all rubbish!"

Yan Wuhuan turned his gaze to Duan Yilu and said, "Old General Duan, for the sake of today, you can only lead your troops to take back the city, and the loss of grain and grass is a big blow to the army. The city must be retaken."

Duan Yilu listened to Yan Wuhuan's order, nodded, and said, "The old minister will do his best, but, His Royal Highness the Prince, how many soldiers and horses will the old minister bring to attack?"

Yan Wuhuan said with an ugly face: "Old general, there are not many soldiers and horses here in Daixian, and I can give you 20,000 people at most."

Duan Yilu listened, his face was solemn, 20,000 people, too little. Although Dangcheng is not a big city or a fortified city, according to the report of the defeated soldiers, the Tang army that captured Dangcheng had at least 5,000 people. If the Tang army has 10,000 people, then the 20,000 people in his hands will be of no use at all.

Duan Yilu looked at Yan Wuhuan's face, and sighed in his heart, originally thinking that this expedition to Daijun would be able to catch Tang Guo off guard.

The result was unexpected, a siege battle was fought for too long, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, but only 70,000 soldiers remained.

If it weren't for the crown prince and his Duan Yilu sitting here, I'm afraid that the remaining 70,000 soldiers would have been scattered long ago.

With the prolongation of the war and the passage of time, the temper of the crown prince Yan Wuhuan became worse and worse. A few days ago, Yan Wuhuan also killed a guard, just because the other party was slow to drink.

Looking at Yan Wuhuan, who had an ugly face, Duan Yilu knew that 20,000 soldiers and horses were already the limit, and there was no room for bargaining. He had to bow down and agree, and turned around and walked out of the Chinese army's tent. qδ

Soon, Yan Wuhuan heard the sound of dispatching troops outside in the tent. He waved his hand at the defeated soldier kneeling in the tent and said nothing. The pro-soldiers stepped forward one after another and took the defeated soldiers out.

"Ahh

After a short scream, there were a few more heads outside the door of the military camp.

Of course, the movements in the camp of the Youjun army could not hide Wang Bo, who was always paying attention to them, Song Shilun came up from the city wall, holding a letter in his hand, and his face was shining with joy.

"Lord Wang, this kid Zhou Yi has succeeded, and the city has been taken."

"I already know, look!"

Song Shilun looked in the direction of Wang Boring's finger, and saw a group of soldiers and horses rushing out of the camp of the Youjun army and marching north.

"Is this sending troops to take the city?"

Song Shilun was surprised.

Wang Bo smiled and said, "Yes, the defeated soldiers of the Youjun army fled quickly."

Song Shilun looked carefully at the smoke and dust outside the city, and said in disbelief, "Look at this scale, this ghost army is only 20,000 people."

Wang Bo nodded and said, "It's only a little less, and this prince of the hidden kingdom is also confident enough."

Song Shilun said with a smile: "Now the only general who can be used in the Youjun is Duan Yilu, it seems that the prince of Youguo believes in this veteran very much."

Wang Bo shook the cloak behind him and said, "Although the veteran is experienced, when he meets Zhou Yi, he also has to admit defeat. Alright, Duan Yilu is gone, it's time for us to move on to our next step."

Song Shilun nodded and said, "Lord Wang, Shao Hongxuan's Sixth Army and Meng Song's Eighth Army have already arrived fifty miles outside the city of Dai County. I'm just waiting for your orders."

Wang Bo walked towards the city gate, and his voice floated: "I'll go and write a war book, this battle should be over."

Go to the official road of the city

Duan Yilu had not left the camp far from the camp with 20,000 soldiers and horses when he received a report from the scout.

"General Duan, the Tang army abandoned the city and headed for Yanyu County!"

The scout's report made Duan Yilu's heart chuckle, Yanyu County is located on the edge of Shanggu County, it is the passage to Dai County, and it is a more important grain and grass supply point than Dangcheng.

Duan Yilu then asked, "How is the city? Is the grain and grass still there?"

Duan Yilu still asked the question that the scout didn't want to hear, and the scout said with an embarrassed face: "General Duan, the situation in the city still needs you to check it out in person. I am afraid that the lowly position will not explain the situation."

Duan Yilu felt bad when he heard the scout's words, and he hurriedly ordered, "The whole army must speed up, before it gets dark, you must reach the city!"

At this time, there was no time for the soldiers to march slowly and leisurely, the military situation was like fire, Duan Yilu waved his horsewhip, the war horse under his crotch was in pain, and he threw off his hooves and galloped.

At dusk, in the twilight sunset, Duan Yilu looked at the granary that had turned into ashes in front of him, his face was very ugly, and the anger in his chest could no longer be suppressed, he looked at the commander of the scout battalion standing aside, and said hatefully, "Give me the trajectory of this Tang army!" I will destroy them!"

When there was no need to occupy the city, the whole city had been burned to the ground, and the people in the city did not know what had happened.

The scouts soon found the traces of Zhou Yi's Tang army, Duan Yilu didn't say a word, and after resting for three hours, he pursued Zhou Yi overnight and marched to Yanyu County.

It is located in the middle of the hills, the terrain is high from north to south, low from east to west, from the city to the county, you must pass through a valley road 500 meters long.

At this time, on the hills on both sides of the valley road, tens of thousands of Tang soldiers were ambushed. Zhou Yi sat next to a pine tree, holding a dog's tail grass in his mouth, and looked bored at the waning moon in the sky.

Peng Chong quietly touched Zhou Yi's side and reported: "Military marshal, Duan Yilu, this old man is really angry, and he is chasing after him. It's only five miles from us at this point."

Zhou Yi raised his hand and pulled out the dog's tail grass from his mouth, threw it to the ground, and said, "Let the soldiers be ready, entertain the soldiers of the Youjun Army, and leave them here if you say anything."

"Order!"

The 1st Division of the 18th Army waited until he was about to fall asleep, and when he heard that the enemy was about to arrive, he used all his tricks to wake himself up.

The 2nd and 3rd Divisions were ambushed on the other side of the hill, and when the valley road was fought, they would rush to the two exits of the valley road, plug the gap, and give Duan Yilu a urn to catch turtles.

At this time, the turtle had already arrived at the entrance of the valley road, and did not enter the valley road, but waited for the scout to report the news.

After a short time, a group of scouts rushed out of the shadows, and the leader of the army came to Duan Yilu and reported: "General Qiqi, there is no abnormality in the valley road, and there is no abnormality in the hills on both sides."

Duan Yilu listened, nodded with satisfaction, and with a wave of his hand, the army entered the valley one after another.

Zhou Yi watched the turtle walk into the urn by itself, waiting patiently.

"Marshal, the vanguard of the Ghost Army has come out of the valley."

"Marshal, the middle army of the Youjun army is approaching the exit of the valley road."

Hearing this, Zhou Yi waved his hand and said, "Attack!"

"Whoa!"

Looking at the exit of the valley road that was gradually approaching, Duan Yilu's heart that had been hanging gradually relaxed, this night march, what he was most afraid of was to encounter an ambush on this valley road. At this time, it seems that his worries are superfluous, and the Tang army does not have any extra troops to ambush him.

As soon as I thought of this, I heard the dull sound of stones hitting the ground.

"Kill!"

"Capture Duan Yilu alive!"

Duan Yilu looked at the exit in front of him with a stunned face blocked by a boulder falling from the sky, and when he heard the shouting of killing, he quickly raised his head, and in the bright flames, his face was extremely frightened.

More than 45,000 Tang troops besieged 20,000 Youjun, and the ending was without suspense. Duan Yilu's Chinese army was the target of the Tang army's key attack, covered by stones, wood, and arrows in turn, Duan Yilu couldn't even command the troops under his command to resist, and even the people and horses fell to the ground, and they couldn't die anymore.

The remaining Youjun army was not commanded by the main general, and under the command of their respective middle and low-level generals, they were divided into countless pieces by the Tang army, and then they were eliminated one by one.

Duan Yilu's 20,000 troops died more than 5,000 in battle and surrendered more than 14,000. Zhou Yi looked at the reported results, showed a satisfied expression, and said to Peng Chong: "This battle is only happy, let the soldiers clean up the battlefield, pull the prisoners, and return to the city."

"Whoa!"
