Three days later, Yelu Abaoji waved his banner, ordered the army to attack Yuguan, and personally supervised the battle behind the battle.

For hundreds of thousands of soldiers, a three-day rest is actually nothing, and the number of troops who can take turns to fight every day is only tens of thousands at most, and eighty or ninety percent of the soldiers are basically idle when they can't take their turn to fight.

However, after resting for three days, the relaxation of the spirit was great, and with this siege, the morale of the Khitan army obviously rebounded a lot. In addition, when he learned that Yelu Abaoji had arrived here and personally supervised the battle behind the battle, the Khitan monks and warriors had no reason not to fight with their lives.

Under the eyes of Yelu Abaoji and the concerned gaze of Yelu Enemy, the Khitan warriors who flocked to Yuguan like a tide soon stretched the city, and flooded Yuguan like locusts.

After half a day of fierce fighting, the look of contempt on Yelu Abao's face disappeared, and Yelu's eyes became heavy with concern.

A day later, Yelu Abao's face sank like water, and Yelu was extremely nervous.

After another three days, the battle returned to the way it had been six days earlier.

Even if Yelu Abaoji was supervising the battle, the situation had not fundamentally changed.

Yelu Enemy, who was ashen, after hesitating many times, still stubbornly said this to Yelu Abaoji: "The king...... It seems that Li Maozhen did not transfer the defenders of Yuguan to the north entrance, and the number and strength of the Tang army here are still the same as before......"

There is no need for Yelu Dilie to say, Yelu Abaoji has long been aware of this.

He just didn't want to admit it.

How could Li Maozhen not dispatch the defenders of Yuguan to support Beikou?

How dare she?!

Isn't she afraid that the north exit will be lost?

Yelu Abaoji was furious.

The king was furious, ambushed millions of corpses, and bled for thousands of miles. As a result, the Khitan soldiers in front of Yuguan ushered in the harshest military law. Since soldiers cannot spontaneously possess high morale, in order to maintain the strength of the offensive, the commander-in-chief must use military law to restrain them.

This is also the commander's last resort.

In the Khitan army outside Yuguan City, hundreds of soldiers were executed by military law every day, and their heads were hung high in front of the gate. If you can't hang it, you can pick it up on the flagpole.

Under such a high-pressure military order, the offensive of the Khitan army returned to normal.

However, Yelu Abaoji's anger did not dissipate much because of this.

He did not see the possibility of capturing Yuguan in the short term.

That's just as it should be. If he could take Yuguan with only strict military orders, Yelu Abaoji would not be able to use those tactics to lure Li Maozhen into dividing his troops.

However, King Qi of the Tang Dynasty was not fooled.

Yelu Abaoji doesn't think he has revealed a flaw.

So the only explanation is that Li Maozhenjun is slightly extraordinary.

Such a king of Qi made Yelu Abaoji feel helpless.

What finally extinguished Yelu Abaoji's anger was a heavy rain.

In the heavy rain, the water level of Yushui skyrocketed, and Yuguan became more difficult to attack.

Under such circumstances, Yuguan was already impregnable, and Yelu Abaoji lost the fighter plane to break through Yuguan.

After killing the two commanders who were ineffective in combat, Yelu Abaoji barely calmed the grievances in his heart.

......

The strategy was smiling, the attack on Yuguan failed, Yelu Abaoji showed his anger and disappointment in front of the Khitan soldiers, which made Yelu Dilie and others ashamed to death, and he himself wanted to go into battle several times.

Yelu Abaoji did not let Yelu Dilie do this.

For though he was indeed angry, his anger was not as deep as that of Jerod and the others.

The reason why he was not so angry was because this war would not gradually deteriorate as Yelu and Yelu said, and could only end hastily in the end.

He has a greater reliance.

Or rather, a larger strategic layout.

Yelu Abaoji just didn't expect that the Khitan army would not even be able to attack Youzhou after months of hard fighting and paying a lot of price. The outcome of the war will ultimately fall on that layout, which he is not very willing to see.

That was his last ploy to win the war.

"All ready?"

Yelu Abaoji in the king's tent held a glass of wine, looked at the shaman envoy who walked in, and waved his hand to retreat everyone in the tent.

The crane-haired and childlike Wo Tai has always been in good spirits.

And now, his spirits are even greater.

Just because there is joy in the heart.

When people are happy, they will appear more energetic.

The pleasure of Wo Tai was so strong that he didn't sit down, and before he could pour himself a glass of wine, he couldn't wait to say the good news that he couldn't hold back.

He said in as calm a tone as possible: "The preparations of the three parties have been in place. The situation is as we expected, and Li Ye did not find any clues. Soon, he will be baptized by a raging storm and will walk into his own grave in a storm!"

Although the words were said steadily, the excitement that he tried his best to suppress still jumped out of the lines.

Yelu Abaoji chuckled, "Li Ye collected military information from all sides, relying on nothing more than the Tsing Yi Yamen. The Tsing Yi Yamen is indeed strong enough, pervasive, and leaky, and it is worthy of his trust.

"It's a pity that some time ago, the Tsing Yi Yamen was busy cleaning the interior and investigating the people in the country who had dealings with us, either openly or secretly. ”

He picked and picked at the table where the wine was placed, chose a silver kettle that satisfied him, and sat down comfortably in his place.

He didn't have time to pour himself wine, so he said with a smile: "Of course Li Ye doesn't know, this is the layout that the king has planned for many years.

"Those who infiltrated the Tsing Yi Yamen and interacted with the officials of the Tang Dynasty were all painstakingly planted by the king. After Ma Yin's incident, Li Ye must have sensed the risks hidden in the Tsing Yi Yamen, and had to immediately start purging them. And that's exactly what the king wants to see. ”

Yelu Abaoji took a sip of wine and said to himself: "They have indeed collected a lot of useful information for us, and this is their usefulness. But their greatest use was that when the war came, they were exposed by me and attracted the attention of Li Ye and the Tsing Yi Yamen. ”

Qi Wotai poured himself a wine and immediately answered: "Only when the Tsing Yi Yamen is busy dealing with internal problems, there is not so much energy to take care of the outside. It's a very simple idea. ”

"The simpler the method, the more useful it is. Yelu Abao said.

He nodded and drank a glass of wine in one gulp before shaking his head and continuing: "The best thing is that Li Ye regarded the war in the north as the core, and also regarded the king as the opponent who needed to be dealt with the most, and transferred 500,000 Chang'an forbidden troops here. ”

Yelu Abaoji said leisurely: "Li Ye has always been very wary of me, thanks to him to look up to me, in fact, I am also very proud. So, when I lead the whole army to conquer in person, how can he not regard me as the number one enemy? If he does not do this, the northern border will not be able to hold. ”

Qi Wo Tai said: "Under the situation of the world's attack on the Tang Dynasty, Li Ye has no more choice, and he has no choice in the matter of letting the main force of the army face the king. Just like now, the Tang Army has always taken a defensive position in the war and did not attack rashly, which is also a matter of no choice. ”

Yelu Abaoji said: "That's true. But in this way, he lost the chance to break the game at the end. ”

Qi Wo Tai said: "The king set off the overall situation of the whole world attacking the Tang Dynasty, so he was not given this opportunity. ”

Yelu Abaoji said with a smile: "You say, if the Tang army does not plan to defend the city from the beginning, but goes out of the pass to fight a decisive battle with our army, with the strength of those Tang monks, is it possible to defeat me in one fell swoop when the strength of the monks in our army is weak?"

He shrugged: "Maybe there is, maybe not." If it doesn't happen, who knows what will happen?"

Speaking of which, he had already drunk a pot of wine.

The same is true of Yelu Abaoji.

They were all intoxicated.

Indulge in your own earth-shattering schemes.

"Half a decade, at most another half a decade, we will be able to come to the city of Youzhou. At that time, the mountains and rivers in the south will become a battlefield for Khitan warriors!"

......

In the political hall of King An's mansion, Li Ye held a military newspaper in his hand, his eyes were like cold stars.

There were several bloodied monks standing in the hall, great monks, great monks of the real realm.

The military newspaper was sent back by them personally.

The military report that was personally sent back by the Great Cultivator of the True Human Realm was naturally very important and urgent.

One is from Nanzhao and the other is from Yangguan.

After Wang Jian led his troops into Nanzhao, the war has been smooth, and the army is advancing steadily, which means that it is unstoppable. The previous military report showed that Wang Jian had occupied half of the rivers and mountains of Nanzhao, and he only needed to defeat the main force of the Nanzhao army in the end to win the battle against Nanzhao.

However, the military newspaper in front of him said that Wang Jianzhong was ambushed, the army was defeated, and he himself was not lightly injured.

"Eighty monks with the strength of the True Human Realm, more than a thousand high-level Qi cultivators, led an elite army composed almost entirely of monks...... In the areas occupied in the past, a large number of fierce soldiers also rushed out from the mountains and forests, and cooperated with the army to attack from all sides......"

This is the reason for the defeat of Wang Jian's army, Li Ye looked at the messenger sent back by Wang Jian, "Where did Nanzhao get so many monks?"

The messenger half-knelt and reported: "Most of them are Khitans!"

Li Ye stopped talking.

He looked at the messenger from Yangguan again.

Yangguan was broken, and the Guiyi army retreated to Shazhou City, which is the content of the Yangguan Military Report.

The reason for the defeat of the army was the night attack by the Uighur army. The reason for the success of the night attack is the same as the reason for the defeat of Wang Jian's army, which is that an army of powerful monks suddenly appeared. The Guiyi army was taken by surprise and defeated.

Li Ye put down the military report, and no longer looked at the messenger, closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows, and fell into deep thought.

Of course, there were many Khitan monks.

But not so much. At least not so much that they could give so many monks to the Uighurs and Nanzhao. So the only explanation is that in the Khitan army in the north, the number of monks is now very small.

In the previous battle in the north, because it was an offensive and defensive battle at Chengguan, the number of soldiers who took turns to fight every day was at most tens of thousands, less than one percent of the number of Khitan troops, and correspondingly, the number of monks would not be too much.

Therefore, even if there were half fewer monks in the Khitan Kingdom, the Tang army guarding the pass would not be able to find out.

Don't say that half of the Khitan monks, even if they are only thirty percent, are invested in the battlefields of Nanzhao and Yangguan, which is enough to cause great changes.

The armies sent by the Tang Dynasty to Nanzhao and the Uighurs could only be regarded as partial divisions, and the number of monks was naturally small.

Now that both armies have been defeated, what will be the next situation, Li Ye doesn't need to think much about it to know.

The Nanzhao army invaded Shuzhong, and the Uighur army invaded Hexi. The Tang Dynasty, which lost the border pass, has made a comeback. Once the border troubles cannot be curbed in time, it will soon become a national disaster that will sweep half of the country.

After a while, Li Ye opened his eyes, and his gaze over everyone's heads and at the eaves outside the door was as sharp as a sharp arrow. He muttered in a low voice: "Yelu Abaoji, Yelu Abaoji, you are playing with fire." ”
