Chapter Fifty-Four: Recovering the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!

In the second year of the Great Dry Calendar, autumn. 35xs

Emperor Lin Nuo ordered Lu Junyi as the commander, Yue Fei as the deputy general, Lin Chong, Guan Sheng, Qin Ming, Hu Yanzhuo and other five tiger generals were all sent back from all over the country, and a total of 100,000 elite cavalry and 50,000 ordinary foot soldiers were mobilized, a total of 150,000 troops, and they set out to conquer the sixteen states of Yanyun.

The reason why this time period was chosen to go out is because this year's northern region is considered to be smooth in wind and rain, and the suitable rainfall can not be more suitable, coupled with the suitable sunshine and warm climate, so that the land of the Great Qianguo and even the sixteen states of Yanyun in the north, the rice growth is gratifying, and the mountains are yellow and clear, as if they have sprinkled gold all over the land.

Autumn is the harvest season, and Lin Nuo is ready to take this treasure land that has been occupied by the Liao State for a hundred years in one fell swoop, of course, by the way, to help the people here also collect the grain.

After all, in the future, more than half of the military rations for the Liao State will probably have to be hoarded from here.

Yanzhou.

Most of the troops of the Liao army stationed here have already been called back, as expected by the courtiers of the Great Qianguo, the Liao court has given up the defense of the sixteen states of Yanyun, and most of the soldiers and horses have been placed near the capital of the Liao State to defend the royal capital.

"Hurry up, the soldiers and horses of Qianguo don't know when they will call, hurry up and collect more food, let's leave quickly!"

Within a radius of 50 miles around Yanzhou City, groups of Liao troops are supervising the people to harvest autumn grain, they are the last group of troops left in Yanzhou by the imperial court, the number is less than 10,000, and the task left is to collect more grain before the Great Qianguo sends troops.

This year has been really eventful for Liao.

In order to successfully destroy the Jin State, the Liao State sent envoys to ally with the Song Dynasty, and in order to express its sincerity, the Liao State even sent 100,000 troops, preparing to destroy the rebellious Daqian State for the Song Dynasty first.

It's a pity that the army has just left Yanzhou, and it has not even stepped into the territory of the Great Qianguo. The 100,000 Liao army was defeated in one fell swoop by the so-called Great Qianguo, which was previously inconspicuous, and almost all the army was wiped out, and even less than 10,000 people fled back to the territory of the Liao State.

That's it, after all, it was not the elite army of the Liao State that went out to conquer the Qianguo this time, and the defeat was not unacceptable, what really made them feel uncomfortable was that in the spring of this year, there were demons all the way from the grassland, fought for thousands of miles, and completely defeated the 100,000 elite troops recruited from all over the Liao State with the strength of one person.

However, the demon who can make children stop crying when he says that he is famous is the founding emperor of the Great Qian Kingdom, Lin Nuo.

Two major defeats in succession, and it was the kind of defeat that completely lost the fighting spirit, so that the Liao State, from the emperor to the ordinary people, were afraid of the so-called Great Qianguo.

After Lin Nuo made it clear that he wanted to recover the Yanyun territory, after many discussions, the monarchs and ministers of the Liao State finally decided that it was better to transfer the troops back than to be defeated by others. Flash Dance

In the eyes of the Liao State, the Qianguo State belonged to the external troubles, while the Jin State was an internal strife, and after many disputes, the hundred officials finally chose the strategy of 'fighting the outside must first settle the inside'.

In the eyes of the monarchs and ministers of the Liao State, after all, the Great Qianguo was founded not long ago, and after occupying the sixteen states of Yanyun, it is estimated that it will be difficult to completely digest this huge territory within a year or two, and this precious time can enable the Liao State to gather superior forces and destroy the henchmen of the Jin State in one fell swoop.

Speaking of which, there is nothing wrong with Liao's strategic deployment, but they underestimated Lin Nuo's determination to unify the world.

The autumn is crisp and the sun is shining, and nearly 10,000 soldiers of the Liao State, under the leadership of the general Yelu Chucai, are supervising hundreds of thousands of people, frantically grabbing grain.

This batch of grain will be the military food for the Liao State to conquer the Jin State, which is extremely important and must not be mistaken.

Moreover, according to the news from the Liao State in the Great Qianguo, the Qianguo is now busy with the autumn harvest and has no plans to send troops for the time being.

It's just that on this day, just when Yelu Chucai felt that the grain harvest was almost complete, and he was about to retreat in the past two days, he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves from far and near.

"The Great Cadre Cavalry is coming, the enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking!"

The scout in charge of the sentry of the three horsemen desperately blew the whistle in his mouth to alert the people who were harvesting the rice and the sergeant who supervised the matter, while waving his horsewhip and frantically trying to escape.

Whoa!

The rain of arrows poured down, and in an instant, the three Liao scouts were covered by the rain of arrows, and they were completely silent.

Boom Boom!

The ground was constantly shaking, the roar and the sound of horses' hooves were constantly sounding from afar, and in Yelu Chucai's shocked eyes, a torrent like a black tide was frantically sweeping towards the outside of Yanzhou City.

It was an elite cavalry wearing black armor, holding a spear, and carrying a bow and crossbow, and even the war horses under him were all pure black, and as far as the eye could see, they couldn't find any other colors.

In this terrifying cavalry group, there are two large flags that stand out from the crowd.

"Qian", "Yue"

"Run!"

Seeing that the war was about to begin, the people were suddenly in a mess, all kinds of chaotic shouts resounded in the fields, men, women and children dropped the sickles in their hands, threw away the baskets on their shoulders, abandoned the crops they had just harvested, and fled in the direction of Yanzhou City like a swarm.

"Damn, didn't the news from those spies say that Daqian has no plans to send troops for the time being? Where did this cavalry come from?"

Yelu Chucai scolded angrily, and he didn't have time to care about the people who fled in all directions, and even the hundreds of thousands of stone grains that were thrown in the fields couldn't be cleaned up, so he gave an order, and directly under the escort of the guards, he rode a war horse and fled to the north.

Yelu Chucai was anxious, the military rations could not be collected, and it was difficult to say whether he could save his life now.

Woohoo!

In the distance, a wave of arrows hit again, thousands of bows and crossbows fell, and some Liao soldiers who did not escape in time were shot to death on the spot.

"There is no need to pursue, collect the loot, our purpose this time is military rations!"

For the fleeing Liao army, this large cadre cavalry did not pursue, but lined up in front of Yanzhou City, under the command of the leading general, part of the garrison entered the city, and part began to transport grain to the city, everything seemed to be in order.

"General Yue, we can command the matter of transporting military rations, and please enter the city first to preside over the overall situation!"

The person who spoke, holding the Fang Tian Painting Halberd, was the little Wenhou Lu Fang, who was highly anticipated by Lin Nuo, and he was assigned to Yue Fei as a general when the army set out this time.

Yue Fei, who was also wearing black armor, took off his helmet, nodded solemnly, and then led more than a thousand cavalry into Yanzhou City.

Yesterday this ancient city was still part of the territory of the Liao State, but today it is included in the territory of the Great Qian Dynasty.
