retaliate

Chapter 644

"My lord, we encountered enemy scouts ahead!"

"Follow-up response."

"Leader!"

Teams of cavalry rushed to reinforce.

Later, the battle report came.

"My lord, our army will support the infantry and defeat the enemy cavalry."

"it is good!"

That's a good start.

Han Ji smiled and said, "Good luck!"

Afterwards, the soldiers who made meritorious service in this battle were brought in.

"This... I just saw it yesterday, and I made a contribution today."

Yang Xuan pointed at Zhao Yong.

The general who led the team introduced: "My lord, Zhao Yongchu is not timid in fighting. He killed two enemies with one shot, and one of them was the enemy general."

"Oh! One shot pierces two people. Strength and courage are indispensable. Tell me, how did you drive you to be so brave in the first battle?"

Yang Xuan asked with a smile.

Zhao Yong was a little sad, "My lord, the villain is guilty."

"Why?" Yang Xuan liked such innocent young people, and felt that there was no need to use his brain.

Zhao Yong raised his head, "At that moment, the villain should be thinking of serving the envoy, but the villain, the villain is thinking of what A Niang said, and wants to go home."

"The courage to go home!"

Yang Xuan's calm tone made Zhao Yong uneasy.

"Who isn't?"

Yang Xuan patted him on the shoulder, "This is a living warrior! Credit!"

"Yes!"

There are paperwork around.

Zhao Yong was taken away, looking a little depressed.

"He broke his oath." Jiang He'er said.

"He's just an ordinary young man. It's his first time in battle. If you want to say that you can think of fighting bravely for me as an envoy, that's unrealistic.

The first time I went to battle, my mind was empty, and I relied on intuition.At that time, the only thing I could think of was to survive!go home! "

Jiang He'er asked: "Is it the same in the first battle of Mr. Lang?"

"Ok!"

But at that time, Yang Xuan had no home.

Now it is different!
Yang Xuan thought of his wife and children, especially A Liang.

That kid, howling started shaking the world.

"Your Majesty."

The scout came to report, "The enemy rangers have retreated."

"it is good!"

Yang Xuan said with a smile: "The victory in the first battle will be passed on to the whole army."

"Wan Sheng!"

Amid the cheers, the army marched forward.

……

"Your Majesty."

In the lobby, He Lianrong and Xiao Manyan were studying the battle situation.

The little official came in, "The scouts came to report that the first battle was defeated."

"As expected." Xiao Manyan said with a smile: "Our army is the scouts, and the Tang army is the main army."

He Lianrong said: "Undefeated, not good!"

The two smiled at each other.

The little official resigned, and Xiao Manyan said: "Victory in the first battle, the morale of the enemy army will naturally be boosted. There must be a place to vent the morale boost. But my Tanzhou closed the city gate, how can the Chenzhou army vent? The only way is to attack the city.

Siege is easy to say, but hard to do.Ants attack the city, how many people will Yang Gou plan to kill?

Even if he can break through a small county, but with heavy casualties, how can he resist the counterattack of the main force of our Tanzhou army?Not to mention going to Tao County to resist my army going south from the Great Liao Dynasty? "

This is the first battle that was deliberately lost!
Xiao Manyan said: "Your envoy still says he doesn't understand battle formations, but the old man has nothing to say about his plan this time. I'm ashamed of myself!"

"What you wait to see is only the victory or defeat, but what the old man sees is the overall situation." He Lianrong was not complacent, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter if you win or lose for a while, the key is to raise the morale of Chen Zhou's army and force Yang Dog to attack the strong In this way, our army has taken the initiative while waiting for work. And everything is for one purpose, so that Yang Dog can't reinforce Taoxian!"

The admiration in Xiao Manyan's eyes was undisguised, "Your envoy, you are wise!"

War is never a win or lose!
To be able to beat the outcome and see the strategy behind the outcome, this is the talent.

He Lianrong got a glimpse of the strategy, which made Xiao Manyan feel ashamed.

"To fight in battle, I'm not as good as you, so I have no choice but to come up with an idea." He Lianrong smiled.

"Emissary." The little official came again, "Ning Xing has come as an envoy."

"Please come."

The envoy came in, and He Lianrong and Xiao Manyan stood with their arms tied.

"Your Majesty has made up his mind to march south!"

"Your Majesty, wise!" The two were delighted.

"Your Majesty ordered Tanzhou to contain Chenzhou's army and not allow it to reinforce Taoxian."

"Leader!"

The envoy asked: "When I first arrived, I saw that everyone was on guard, and the gates of the city were even more tense. People are allowed to enter and not allowed to leave, but something is wrong?"

"The envoy doesn't know, the Chenzhou army is here." He Lianrong said.

"Oh! That's good." The envoy said, "Your Majesty asked me to stay and send the news back at any time."

This person actually has the intention of supervising the army.

It must have happened that Uncle Huang secretly hoarded ore!
He Lianrong said: "You are most welcome."

The envoy nodded, "Are you sure about this battle?"

He Lianrong said: "Yang Xuan wanted to reinforce Tao County, but he was afraid of our Tanzhou Army. So he took the initiative to attack. In the first battle earlier, the old man ordered his subordinates to pretend to be defeated..."

"Proud enemy?" The envoy didn't seem to be a stickler either, he knew some common sense in the army.

"Yes. Let the Chenzhou army win the first battle, and the morale is high. But the morale can't be maintained for a long time. If you don't find a place to make persistent efforts, the morale will drop quickly, so Yang Gou can only lead the attack. But I in Tanzhou stay behind closed doors. He You can only attack the strong city!"

"Good strategy!" The envoy felt that it was appropriate, "Is it safe to defend the city?"

He Lianrong nodded, "The old man has been preparing for a long time, just waiting for Yang Gou to bump into him head-on."

"Okay!" The envoy said with a smile, "If it's an emergency, I can join the battle!"

He Lianrong smiled, "The envoy is very brave at first glance, and this battle needs such warriors as the envoy. Presumably, the victory in this battle is also due to the envoy's contribution."

"Hahahaha!"

Satisfied, the Messenger was taken away for placement.

Xiao Manyan sneered and said, "It's shameful to learn to take credit for it!"

"Being an official for thousands of miles is only for money, and the credit is money and power. Who doesn't want it? When the time comes, he will add his name to the leader. There is no need to be indignant."

"Yes." Xiao Manyan ignored the matter, "Master, Ning Xing actually sent an envoy, which is a bit unusual."

"The matter of the emperor's uncle's hoarding of ores has been leaked." He Lianrong smiled wryly, "Your Majesty sent an envoy to beat him. If you lose this battle, I will be in danger!"

"Why do you need to worry, the emperor's uncle is here!"

Xiao Manyan said with a smile, "Your Majesty, regard the Emperor Taishu as your own!"

This is so shameless.

The emperor's descendants were completely killed by a palace change, and by the way, they also lost the ability of men to reproduce.

"If it weren't for this, the ore matter this time would have allowed His Majesty to put the emperor's uncle in limbo!" He Lianrong felt that this matter was really God's will.

"Uncle Huang's stable status is a good thing for Tanzhou." Xiao Manyan hinted.

Xiao Manyan is just a marginal figure, while He Lianrong is the emperor's uncle and knows many things.

He Lianrong said in a deep voice: "Don't get carried away with complacency, you must know that there are countless sons in the clan. If the emperor's uncle annoys His Majesty, it is hard to say, His Majesty will change someone... It is not my blood, so let him be far away! "

Xiao Manyan's heart trembled, "So, this battle must be won, otherwise it will be difficult for the emperor's uncle."

"It's good that you know!" He Lianrong took a sip of the cold tea, "Yanbei County is in the right front of Tanzhou City, the left wing of the Chenzhou Army, if you advance, you can flank the Chenzhou Army, and if you retreat, you can defend the city. This is a must for this battle. Let Yan Biao and Zong Xu guard the place of contention."

"Yes." Xiao Manyan agreed, "There are dozens of big men around Yang Gou, who are unparalleled in bravery. Originally, two beds were given to Yanbei County. Isn't that a little less?"

"Dial two more cards." He Lianrong put down his teacup, "It turns out that Tang and Southern Zhou had bed slaves, and Daliao couldn't ask for it from Southern Zhou. I didn't expect that after the Southern Expedition of Tang Dynasty, Southern Zhou would take the initiative without Daliao asking." Give me the method of making a bed slave, this man! It can be seen that he is a cheap brat."

"Bed slaves are indeed good, but there are fewer of them, and they are not as good as those of Tang Dynasty and Southern Zhou Dynasty." Xiao Manyan felt a little regretful.

"Our craftsmen are not so good." He Lianrong said: "For some reason, the craftsmen of the Southern Zhou Dynasty are great, and the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty are great."

"My lord, there are people from the Central Plains on both sides!" Xiao Manyan said: "The people from the Central Plains are smart and capable, and they are the best slaves."

"That's right! It's a pity that Daliao failed to occupy the Central Plains when the Chen Kingdom fell, otherwise... well, what's the use of talking about it? Go to Yanbei County and other places to inspect and urge them."

Xiao Manyan left.

Then Jin Ze came in.

"My lord, this messenger is not kind!"

"Your Majesty wants to show kindness to the emperor's uncle, otherwise the country will be uneasy, and Lin Ya and others will take the opportunity to provoke. Your majesty will also be afraid of the emperor's uncle, but it is not easy for your majesty to take action against the emperor's uncle, so... we will become two sides wrestling tool."

The tool man He Lianrong was not dissatisfied with being used, "The emperor's uncle has too few people, and the fewer people there are, the less suspicion his majesty will have. But how can these people create momentum for the emperor's uncle? This battle is an opportunity."

Jin Ze said: "The old man just came back, and they said that Yang Dog will arrive in two days?"

He Lianrong nodded, "Xin Wuji didn't dare to harass Chen Zhou's army, this is expected."

"Otherwise, when Yang Gou gets angry, the army will turn around, and the south of the town will be vulnerable."

"However, the southern part of this battle is very critical." He Lianrong said: "At the beginning of the battle, the Chenzhou army stormed the city, and our army guarded it. Just wait for the morale of the Chenzhou army to drop, and our Tanzhou army will go out of the city to give him a blow. At the same time, Zhennan hit him from behind, what's the point of being undefeated in this battle?"

……

Yanbei County is in the right front of Tanzhou City

The guard Yan Biao just sent Xiao Manyan away, looked at the two crossbows, and said: "Set it up immediately, and practice later."

Lieutenant General Zong Xu leaned over to touch the crossbow, and praised: "What a military weapon!"

The two stood on the top of the city, looking at the south.

"The scouts are back."

The scouts went to the top of the city.

"Xiangwen, the Chenzhou army is forty miles away."

"alert!"

……

Day two.

"Chenzhou Army is here."

More than a dozen scouts entered the city in a panic.

"I don't know who I met, I look a little embarrassed!" Zong Xu was a little dissatisfied.

"coming."

More than a hundred riders are approaching.

"alert!"

The city generals were shouting.

"It's just more than a hundred riders!" Someone murmured, feeling like making a fuss out of a molehill.

"Yang Gou has dozens of big men under his command. They are invincible in the battle, and they are very good at attacking the city. If you don't pay attention, they will surprise you, and then the army will cover up and kill them. Are there still Yanbei?"

These words flashed in Yan Biao's ears.

More than a hundred riders approached the city, and the leading general stretched out his hand to build a pergola over his eyes, and looked at the top of the city.

Behind them were two sergeants, one fat and one thin, carrying bulging sacks.

Looking at it is still unfinished.

"It's Wang Lao Er!"

someone exclaimed.

"Human head maniac!"

"Xiangwen, do you want to give him a shot?" Zong Xu suggested, "Use four bed bugs to shoot at him, if he can shoot and kill this person, Yang Gou will go crazy, and the morale of the Chenzhou army will also plummet. "

"The bed is at the back, so it's inconvenient to move." Yan Biao gave up this idea.

Immediately, the army came.

"My lord, on the left is Yanbei City, and further ahead is Tanzhou City."

Yang Xuan saw it.

Wang Laoer came back with scouts, "Mr. Lang, the enemy army is heavily guarded."

"It's expected." Yang Xuan said: "Since He Lianrong chose to stick to it, there must be something to rely on. Set up camp and build siege equipment!"

A lot of siege equipment was brought with the army, and they were all in the follow-up supply team.However, such devices are consumables, so there are not too many.

Chen Zhou's army retreated and set up camp.

"Yang Gou, are you going to run away?"

"Does Yang Gou dare to fight?"

Seeing Chen Zhou's army retreating, even though they knew they were setting up camp, the city leaders still shouted and cursed endlessly.

Scolding has always been one of the means to boost morale.Whoever has the loudest voice and who can compose lyrics will have the upper hand.

"It's easier to scold!" Zong Xu shook his head.

"Curse people, or Tang people are more powerful." Yan Biao said.

The masters of cursing in the Tang Dynasty can not rest for half an hour, and they don't repeat themselves, which can be said to be invincible.

Outside the city, Yang Xuan heard shouting and cursing.

"You bitch, wait until the city is broken and kill all the chickens and dogs! Cut off your tongue!"

Zhang Xu was angry.

"Curse, just wait for him to scold." Yang Xuan said: "Whoever is in a hurry loses at this time, understand? Go, go and listen."

Zhang Xu: "..."

Lin Feibao glared at him, "Take the shield and follow."

"Yang dog..."

"Yanggou, how is your mother?"

"Yang dog..."

The shouting gradually died down.

Surrounded by dozens of big men, Yang Xuan approached the city, glanced at the top of the city, and said, "Are you sure you can break the city?"

he asked with a smile.

"Have!"

Dozens of big men shouted in unison, and the Northern Liao Army on the top of the city couldn't help being shocked.

"That's Yang Gou?"

"very young."

Yang Xuan looked at it, "I didn't even scold anymore, it's boring, I'll go back."

It was night, and several waves of harassment came from the outskirts of the camp.

"Be careful."

"Don't worry, I'm not bragging, I can hear the sound of mice having sex."

Everyone quietly touched the camp.

"Prepare the rocket."

"Get ready to shout."

More than a dozen people drank water to moisten their throats, some prepared rockets, and some prepared to start fires.

"Is there no one?" The team leader finally asked, his eyes slowly turning, looking around.

"No one, don't worry!"

"What's that on the left? That black shadow." The leader pointed to the left.

It looked like a figure, but the figure was motionless.

"Somewhat infiltrating."

"Don't be a ghost!"

There are so many legends about ghosts and gods on the grassland, and adults like to use these legends to frighten their children.

Everyone present was a victim!
"But he didn't move."

"It's good to squeak!"

Sombra spoke.

"squeak!"
