retaliate

Chapter 448

Wang Laoer woke up.

"Where's my jerky?" Wang Laoer turned his eyes and found that his burden was gone.

"Here!" Tu Chang brought the burden over.

"Tu Gong, you eat." Wang Laoer seemed silly, but he was very clear about who was good to him.

"The old man won't eat. Get up quickly and let the doctor show you and eat something."

Tu Chang was in a good mood, just when the doctor came, he went out and waited.

He and Yang Xuan stood outside, looking at the Huoshaoyun in the sky, feeling very happy.

"Why did Mr. Tu take the jerky?"

"If something happens to the second child, the old man will take the dried meat as dry food and go out for a long trip."

A large bag of jerky can bring Tu Chang to Bianjing.

"Lang Jun, do you want to eat?" Jiang He'er came again, and now she is more and more handsome as a maid.

"Get it."

King Yue and Zhao Dongping had finished eating.

"Shi Zhongtang's side is not going well." Zhao Dongping got the latest news, "The Southern Zhou army in Jiangcheng is resisting fiercely."

The King of Yue said: "Before the start of the war, people from Chang'an to southern Xinjiang were very optimistic. Now it seems that this optimism is a bit early."

Zhao Dongping said: "At that time, I remembered that it was Yang Xuan who said something in the court. Many people thought that he was helping his father-in-law. Who knows... the current situation is just like what he said at the beginning."

"Will it be intentional or unintentional?" King Yue asked.

Zhao Dongping shook his head, "It's hard to say. If it was intentional, then he should have said it long ago. If it was unintentional, it was to excuse my father-in-law. It's hard to say!"

Noticing the disappointment in King Yue's eyes, he smiled, "Your Majesty thinks it's a pity for this person to follow King Wei?"

King Yue nodded, "If he followed this king, he should have come to Southern Border at this moment. As long as he wins this battle, this king can get help from his grandfather and make him flourish in Southern Border..."

"Zhang Chumao is Jiedushi, this person can follow up." Zhao Dongping also looked forward to it for a while, and then sighed: "Unfortunately not!"

"This man is determined." King Yue took a sip from his water glass, "Think about it, a small county magistrate of Northern Xinjiang, who was born in poverty, finally saved the noble concubine and gained a backer. Who would alienate this backer?"

"I don't know either." Zhao Dongping said with a smile: "Even if we know that the concubine brothers and sisters will not end well in the future, at least we can still have more than ten years of wealth and future. In the past ten years, we will work harder and make more friends. It’s time to turn around.”

"Yes! But he relentlessly alienated the concubine's brothers and sisters, which confused me for a while, thinking that this person was in a daze. But later, he became more and more determined step by step, and he stabbed and shot in northern Xinjiang. It's a bright future."

"He's a great talent." Zhao Dongping didn't have any jealousy, "King Wei's brother-in-law died at his hands, but King Wei let him go. The old man thought that King Wei saw this talent at that time, and in order to win over him , so let him go."

"King Wei is a man who hides traitors." Thinking of that elder brother, King Yue couldn't help but sneer, "This time in Chang'an, he showed his true colors. It turns out that he is not lacking in skills. The so-called brutality is just a cover-up to confuse the world."

"King Wei has Yang Xuan's support, and I'm afraid he will be able to gain a firm foothold in northern Xinjiang in the future." Zhao Dongping reminded.

"This king knows." The King of Yue breathed out a sigh of relief, "Huang Chunhui values ​​Yang Xuan, and when he leaves office, he will definitely give him a hand. In this way, within ten years, this person will definitely be able to respond to everyone in northern Xinjiang. At that time, Wei The king can take advantage of the situation... and Aye, it's only been more than ten years!"

The emperor is not young, although he has always been in good health, but it is estimated that his life expectancy is more than ten years.

More than ten years later, what will happen to King Wei who controls the northern border with the help of Yang Xuan's power?

"At that time, it's hard to say whether your Majesty will change his mind when facing the wolf-like King Wei." Zhao Dongping knew that the emperor had no family affection in his heart. he."

The status of the empress's son-in-law seems to be noble, but in the eyes of the emperor, this status will reduce points.

"This king knows about it." King Yue's eyes darkened, "Aye is quite dissatisfied with his ancestors, and he hates his house. He hasn't been to Aniang's bedroom in recent years."

"So, the status of the son of the son is actually a burden to the king!"

"But the identity of the first son will bring a lot of things, such as the patronage of a family of four surnames!"

"Three surnames!"

"That's right! This king has forgotten that Yang Xuan is Zhou's son-in-law." Yue Wang felt a little headache, "Why is he everywhere?"

Zhao Dongping smiled, "A family with three surnames is a great help, but the king must be wary of His Majesty."

"Is the father loving and the son filial?"

"Yes!"

"Father is kind and son is filial."

……

The head of Jiangcheng has now become a mountain of corpses.

Tang Jun retreated like a tide.

The guard punched the ground with a knife, gasped and said, "Retreat?"

A general limped to the side, glanced forward, "Retreat!"

"Okay, let's defend it again today, let the city kill some cattle and sheep, and reward the whole army."

"Isn't it easy to kill cows?"

"If you don't kill him, why don't you leave it to the Tang people?" the guard said with a smirk.

The general bowed his head, "Yes."

The guard turned around and said to his subordinates: "Treat yourself as a dead person, only in this way can we survive!"

An old soldier sat down and said with a wry smile: "Our family members are not in the city. It doesn't matter if you die, but being captured or surrendering will bring your family a burden. Don't worry, from the day the war starts, I will look after myself." It's deadly!"

The middle army of the Tang army, Shi Zhongtang, listened to his report with a cold face.

"The enemy army is fierce and brave, fighting to the death without retreating. Although the casualties are heavy, it is difficult to capture for a while."

"This is just Jiangcheng, and there will be Shuangfeng and Xinzhou City in the future!" Shi Zhongtang said with a cold face, "If the enemy dares to fight, don't our warriors dare? Let the Death Battalion go up tomorrow!"

In the early morning of the second day, after breakfast, more than a thousand soldiers from the Death Battalion assembled.

Most of these death camps are foreign warriors, some are captives, and some are recruited.

"Break through Jiangcheng, enough wine and meat!" Shi Zhongtang pointed to the top of the city and gave an order that all the Death Battalion was mobilized.

The foreign general who led the team knelt down, "Please rest assured, general!"

"Go!"

Shi Zhongtang's mere glance made the foreign general tremble.

"Attack!"

Death camp is on.

Shi Zhongtang asked: "How about the left army?"

"Yesterday it was said that the attack on Huangzhou City was just started." Chun Yu said with a smile: "There is Lei Qi in Huangzhou City, and there are still [-] troops. At least the attack will take more than ten days! Let's not worry!"

Shi Zhongtang looked indifferently at the Death Battalion rushing forward, and said, "Today the city will be destroyed!"

"kill!"

The defenders had been exhausted for several days and were already exhausted. In addition to the heavy casualties, they couldn't be stopped by such a pounce by the Death Battalion.

After more than an hour, a banner was raised on the top of the city.

Shi Zhongtang turned around, "Report to my lord, Jiangcheng, break it!"

……

The middle army has arrived in Yezhou City.

"The city is tall, strong, good-looking, and not easy to attack." Zhang Chumao shook his head.

Zhang Huan looked at the city, "The Southern Zhou army's will to resist is becoming more and more tenacious. However, after breaking Yezhou City, Yongzhou will follow. Once Yongzhou is broken, Bianjing will be in front of you. Tell your sons, be more courageous Not good! We can still drink Maying water."

In front of Yingshui is Bianjing.

At that time, Bianjing was shaken, and this battle was regarded as a consummation of merit.

"Sir, the right army has a good news."

"Oh! Call me." Zhang Huan was quite happy.

"Report to my lord, our army has captured Jiangcheng." The sergeant who reported the victory raised his head and shouted.

"Very loud." Zhang Huan was in a good mood, "Reward him!"

A piece of silver was thrown away, and the sergeant took it, and said happily, "Thank you, sir!"

Zhang Huan asked, "How about the left side?"

Zhou Zun said, "We are still attacking."

"It's been three days." Zhang Huan said: "Lei Qi is in the city, and he won't leave for three days. He's probably planning something. Tell Yang Xuan, be careful!"

"Yes."

……

"Four days!"

At the top of the city, Lei Qi looked at the retreating Tang army, and said wearily: "The Tang army's offensive is still unabated, how about Yongzhou?"

"There is still no news." The general under his command said dissatisfied: "At least reinforcements should be sent."

Lei Qi pondered for a long time, "It's time to send reinforcements."

An official went to the top of the city, "Qian Zhizhou sent an old man to ask, how is the city defense?"

Lei Qi said, "It's not bad."

From the current point of view, Tang Jun's strength is indeed strong, and it deserves to be able to compete with Daliao.But after these few days of offensive and defensive battles, Lei Qi grew confident.

"Now the soldiers in the city have been honed by fighting, and gradually have an elite prototype. Give me another five days, and I will make the Tang army hate the city of Huangzhou!"

After Qian Nan got the report, he sneered and said, "The old man beat him a lot, but now he has lowered his stance. He sent people to report to Bianjing, and said... Huangzhou is as stable as a mountain, indestructible!"

At night, more than a hundred wolf riders escorted the messenger out of Huangzhou City.

"Found the enemy!"

In the darkness, someone shouted.

The torches were lit, and dozens of riders appeared on the side.

"Rush over!"

After a short fight, more than ten cavalry escorted the messenger and disappeared to the south.

Yang Xuan received the report and said, "It's almost there."

On the second day, Tang Jun set off again.

Qian Nan was in good spirits today, and brought more than ten officials to the city.

"Tang's military skills are poor." An official pointed to the city and said with a smile: "Day after day, how many soldiers and horses can they kill or wound?"

Qian Nan said indifferently: "Killing Yingye, this is the duty of a warrior. There are years of fighting in northern Xinjiang, so Yang Xuan must be used to killing, thinking that killing can make me bend my knees.

Then, the old man will tell him that Huangzhou is not a place for him to run wild! "

The crowd couldn't help but cheer up.

Ricky is here.

Since that day, everything between the two has been the same, but there is more estrangement.

"Today, the old man ordered meat to be prepared in the city, and it can be eaten at noon." Although he looked down on martial arts, Qian Nan still understood the truth that he should treat these hard-working people kindly at critical times.

"Thank you Zhizhou." Lei Qi said lightly.

"What's the problem?" Qian Nan asked.

"Reinforcement!"

"The messenger will bring a message this time." Qian Nan rejected Lei Qi, but when he went back and thought about it carefully, there were never too many troops.As for worrying about being criticized for being cowardly, that's simple. Huangzhou can defend and counterattack, right?

As for when to counterattack, the initiative is in our hands.

Who dares to question, in one sentence: the battlefield changes rapidly.

"That's good."

Lei Qi nodded.

"Tang Jun is dispatched."

The sun jumped out from below the distant horizon, reddish.

The morning wind is also very gentle.

Boom boom boom!
The sound of war drums was powerful, and accompanied by the morning wind, the Tang army was dispatched.

The array moved slowly, and the eyes of those soldiers who had just had breakfast were bright.

"Today, break the city!"

Before setting off, Yang Xuan said four words!

Out of the range of the bow and arrow, Tang Jun stopped.

Yang Xuance stepped forward immediately.

"Shout out!"

"Is it going to drop or not?"

"Is it going to drop or not?"

"Is it going to drop or not?"

The shouts stirred up the storm.

At the top of the wall, Qian Nan said contemptuously, "Tell him."

"Don't drop!"

The voice from the top of the city is even louder.

"I see." Yang Xuan grinned and said, "Attack!"

"kill!"

The Tang army began to attack the city.

King Yue and Zhao Dongping watched the battle from behind.

Seeing those soldiers falling down from arrows while running, seeing those soldiers falling down while climbing ladders...

"Terrible!"

King Yue narrowed his eyes, "This is the battle formation."

His husband also talked about battle formation before, but what he said was illusory and ungrounded.

Now that he saw it, he realized that the battle formation was not as simple as it said in the poem.

The fighting was still the same, Tang Jun was sharp, Zhou Jun was soft but tenacious.

"Yang Xuan said that if Zhou Jun was given a few more chances, Lei Qi would be able to assemble an elite army. In this way, the clock is ticking!" Zhao Dongping said.

"But this king still looks at him calmly."

"The mountain collapses in front of your eyes without being surprised, this is a famous general."

"You mean, he is indeed a famous general?"

"If you can break Huangzhou City, my lord, from now on, Datang will have one more famous general. Not from Beijiang, but from Datang."

"My lord, I regret it more and more!"

Half an hour later, the battle at the top of the city gradually intensified.

"It's almost there." Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the city, "Old Huang!"

"Here!" Lin Feibao had been resting for a while.

"Take the brothers, and Uda and the others. Bring down Huangzhou City!"

"Please wait and see, sir!"

Lin Feibao turned around, "Attack!"

Han Ji said with a smile: "Mr. Lang has been letting them rest for the past few days. This is to paralyze the enemy!"

Yang Xuan nodded, "The strength of our army's attacks has been about the same in the past few days, and Zhou Jun has also adapted to this level of attack. Lao Huang and the others go up now, then, it will be lively!"

He raised his hand, "It's like a big man who is used to bearing a hundred catties, and suddenly another fifty catties is thrown on his back. Can he withstand it?"

"Emissary!" Wang Shu shouted in front of him: "Brothers' morale is like a rainbow, we must launch a general attack!"

The guards around Shijun were all on board, and everyone saw it and knew that the battle had reached the most critical moment.

Yang Xuan rode over.

Han Ji said to the old thief in a low voice: "Your Majesty has become more calm in using troops."

The old thief who had just finished recording nodded, "The old man feels that Mr. Lang is not using troops, but playing tricks with Lei Qi on the opposite side, to see who has more picks."

"That's rude!" Han Ji smiled, "However, it's to the point. The gentleman is indeed playing tricks with Lei Qi. For some reason, Lei Qi seems to be unable to play with the gentleman."

At the top of the city, Lei Qi turned around, "The guards around Yang Xuan moved, this is a general attack."

Qian Nan said indifferently: "The old man is standing here today, one step, not back!"

Ricky nodded.

"Where's that old man?" Lei Qi frowned, "He didn't come?"

In the middle army, Tu Chang dragged Wang Lao Er, "Your injury is still not healed, don't go!"

At the top of the city, Lin Feibao was the first to rush up.

Lei Qi grinned, "Kill him!"

More than a dozen masters behind him charged in formation.

Lin Feibao held the iron rod and said with a sinister smile, "Slaughter them all!"

Qian Nan stroked his beard and smiled, and the people around him whispered, "Zhizhou, the city is in danger!"

Qian Nan's smile remained unchanged, "The old man humiliated Lei Qi, he seemed calm, but someone quietly left the city last night, heading towards Bianjing.

If the old man guessed correctly, it must be his emissary.

This is to show merit, by the way, to sue the old man.The old man is in charge of the city, the only thing he can criticize is that he has never been on the front line.The old man came today, under the watchful eyes of everyone, who would dare to say that the old man is timid? "

"In this way, Lei Qi cannot take all the credit for repelling the Tang army in this battle!"

Qian Nan said indifferently: "What kind of credit does this old man want? The old man only wants Dazhou, Jiangshan is as solid as gold!"

Bah!
Qian Nan's sight turned red.

He saw that Lin Feibao smashed the heads of Lei Qi's masters with one stick.

Dozens of big men all took a step forward.

Bah!
There were dense explosions from the top of the city.

"what!"

The howls suddenly became denser.

Lei Qi's complexion changed dramatically.

Qian Nan was dumbfounded.

"Slaughter them all!" Lin Feibao shouted.

Headed by him, Qiu Longwei and Wu Da who followed up on the top of the wall rushed towards Lei Qi.

Along the way, no one can stop you!

Qian Nan screamed: "Withdraw!"
