retaliate

Chapter 980

In Sang Yuanxing's view, it was inevitable for Lin Jun to lead the army to help.

Otherwise, once Kunzhou is lost, Ningxing will take advantage of the situation - Lin Jun occupies Taizhou in the name of defending against the invasion of northern Xinjiang.But Northern Xinjiang has invaded, what about you?
Once the reputation of righteousness is lost, Ningxing's side, the emperor and the princess can make a move.

The famous general of Daliao is coming, but Sang Yuanxing is not happy.

Who wouldn't want to defeat a strong enemy in person?
Standing firm and waiting for help, watching the reinforcements defeat the powerful enemy, I have to be grateful.

However, it is always a good thing to save a life.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jun was defeated.

The famous Daliao general who had three victories in three battles against the Shegu people made the emperor so afraid that he tried to find a way to throw him to his old lair, Tanzhou, but he was defeated by Yang Xuan.

What about reinforcements?
Without reinforcements, how can we resist the attack of the northern border army?

Sang Yuanxing loosened his hand and the teacup fell to the ground.

"It's too hot!"

Sang Yuanxing was suddenly furious, pointed at the attendant who was making tea and cursed: "Get out, heavy responsibility!"

The attendant looked confused, "Your envoy, your envoy..."

The two sergeants dragged him out, gagged him, and the shouting stopped immediately.

Sang Yuanxing suppressed his anxiety and said coldly, "What are you panicking about? Wait for him to clarify."

The sergeant continued: "The two armies fought and attacked each other. In the end, Yang Xuan's central army defeated Lin Shijun's central army, and Lin Shijun ordered the entire army to retreat...The villain rushed to report immediately."

"Casualties on both sides." Sang Yuanxing asked.

"The northern border army is not sure, but it is said that Lin Shijun killed and injured more than [-] people!" The sergeant said.

At least five or six thousand... Sang Yuanxing knows the trick of reporting good news but not bad news.

However, the loss in this battle is not big!

"When did Lin Shijun ever lose?" Sang Yuanxing said, "This is evenly matched!"

"Yes! This is clearly a leisurely departure."

The atmosphere was hypocritically relaxed.

Everyone had smiles on their faces, but the worry in their eyes became more intense.

Yang Gou is coming.

"My lord, the northern border army is here."

"It's finally here, let's go and have a look!"

Sang Yuanxing took civil and military officials to the top of the city.

Thousands of cavalry are approaching.

"who is it?"

Sang Yuanxing narrowed his eyes.

"It's not Wang Er Er!"

Everyone was relieved.

Then, the brigade came.

"It's the Southern Flag!"

"Nan He!" Sang Yuanxing's eyes became more relaxed, "Are you sure?"

"Definitely." A eagle shooter said excitedly, "It's the Southern Flag!"

"Nan He is Yang Xuan's confidant, and his ability is unknown. In the past, he was in charge of the Northern Army. This person is loyal to Yang Xuan, and has followed him from Taiping to Tao County. He is one of the most core people around Yang Xuan."

The people of Yingwei softly introduced Nan He's situation.

"It's fine if it's not Yang Gou."

Sang Yuanxing said: "It seems that Yang Xuan is afraid of Mr. Lin, so he personally led the army to intercept him. If he doesn't come and defend Lijiang City, the old man is [-]% sure."

"Yes!"

The army gathered under the banner, and someone said: "Lijiang can be regarded as a strong city, and it is not easy to attack."

After the loss of Neizhou, Lijiang City started reinforcement work, and now it looks quite solid.

"This battle is not about this." Nan He said: "This battle is about Lin Jun and the Duke."

Lin Jun defeated Yang Xuan, so it goes without saying that Lijiang will open the city gates and attack the northern border army.

Yang Xuan defeated Lin Jun, the army joined forces, and the morale of Lijiang City was completely lost. How long can they hold on?
War is never a simple comparison of numbers, but is closely related to the current situation.

Da da da!
More than ten riders rushed into the Chinese army and shouted: "Good news. The Duke led the army to defeat the Taizhou reinforcements!"

The corners of Nan He's mouth raised slightly, "Send it to the armies!"

"Wan Sheng!"

The soldiers cheered heartily.

The Duke has won again!
In this world, is there anything that can stop the Duke of the State?

Zhao Yong's eyes were piercing, and he never felt so passionate.

"The trebuchet!"

Following Nan He's order, the bloody offensive and defensive battle began.

On the first day, the top of the city was pitted by catapults, and there were many casualties.

But it was blocked after all.

The rhythm of Nan He's siege is very slow, like a little old man, he is orderly, but the slow movement makes you want to hit people.

In the early morning of the second day, taking the opportunity of having breakfast, a general came to offer advice.

"General Nan, why don't you be more aggressive?"

In Yang Xuan's application last time, Nan He was General Guide, from the third rank, above Jiang Cunzhong.

Nan He shook his head, "Don't rush!"

The siege battle on the second day was still the same.

The generals were full of complaints, but Nan He didn't explain.

……

"The northern border army also lost a lot in this battle. The key at this moment is to see Yang Xuan's movements."

In an open space more than [-] miles away from Lijiang City, the army rested here.

Lin Jun did not have the depression after the defeat, and remained indifferent.

Shen Changhe said: "Wang Laoer is sharp, it is difficult for our scouts to approach and investigate."

"That's a lunatic, so let someone even crazier."

Lin Jun waved, "Wang Huer!"

A burly man came over and saluted, "Your envoy."

The big man is called Wang Hu'er, and he likes killing people the most.When he followed Lin Jun to attack the Shegu people, the Shegu people who killed them were terrified.

But after arriving in Tanzhou, he was restrained by Lin Jun and was not allowed to do anything without authorization.

"You lead the army to investigate the movement of Yang Xuan's army."

Wang Huer beamed with joy, "Take orders!"

"Watch out for the second child!"

"Don't worry, the villain will return with the head of Wang Lao Er!"

Wang Huer set off with more than a thousand riders.

It didn't take long to encounter Wang Laoer who was cruising.

"Second brother, come to buy and sell!"

The skinny elder's eyes glowed.

"Kill!"

Wang Lao Er had enjoyed killing these two days, and was thinking about how much money he could save. He couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw the thousand-odd riders.

"It's Wang Lao Er!"

Wang Hu'er rushed up and shouted loudly, "Old Wang!"

"Why are you calling me?"

Wang Laoer thinks that killing people should be focused, and those who are not focused will be punished.

Knife light flashed.

Dangdang Dangdang!
Heads fly up.

The defeated soldiers went back to report.

"Wang Hu'er, died in battle."

The heads became things that Wang Lao Er sold for money.

Lin Junwan said, "That Wang Laoer is really sharp."

Shuqi came and brought bad news.

"The northern border army has begun to attack Lijiang City."

Shen Changhe said: "Sang Yuanxing seems to be tough, but he is a greedy and contemptible official. It is said that his family has a lot of money. People who have money will be afraid of death, and when they are afraid of death, they will be ugly. On the contrary, they are not as good as those who have nothing."

"I have nothing but a worthless life, so what are you afraid of?" Lin Jun said: "Within five days, there should be no danger. That is to say, within five days, we will have a decisive battle with Yang Xuan A battle will determine the outcome of this battle."

A general asked: "My lord, what about Lijiang City? Shall we go for reinforcements?"

"This battle has nothing to do with Kunzhou." Lin Jun glanced at the general, and seeing that he was still in a daze, he couldn't help sighing, "If I win here, even if Lijiang is destroyed by Nanhe, I can still take it back easily. If I lose here, even if I lose It was Sang Yuanxing who was determined, and when Yang Xuan's army appeared, the defenders in the city had no fighting spirit... Do you understand?"

He doesn't like dealing with fools, but fools are everywhere in this world, which makes him bored.

"Let the masters disperse and investigate!"

That night, a good player who lost his right arm returned.

"To the southwest...nine miles away."

Nine miles!

This is almost a distance that can be raided at any time.

Shen Changhe's expression changed.

"Fortunately, it was not found!"

Lin Jun said: "Without further delay, prepare for a surprise attack."

Da da da!
A scout came back with five thousand horses.

"Your Majesty ordered that Kunzhou must be rescued!"

Lin Jun looked at the servant who led the team, and said coldly: "I said, I will be outside! I will not be ordered by the emperor!"

The servant's voice was sharp, "Your Majesty knew you would say that, come here!"

When a man stepped forward, Lin Jun's eyes turned cold.

These are people close to Lin Ya.

"Please stay away." The man smiled.

"Shame on you?" The servant sneered, but avoided it.

The man and Lin Jun talked alone.

"What does Xianggong mean?" Lin Jun asked.

The man said: "Xiang Gong is fighting for two big tribes."

"The excuse is related to the battle?"

The man did not hide the look of surprise in his eyes, "Exactly. Xianggong said that although Nanjiang and Ningxing are far apart, they are closely related. The result of this battle can affect some of Xianggong's plans, so we must be proactive. attitude."

"In this way, we can fight for power with confidence."

Lin Jun fell silent immediately.

The man didn't urge him, instead, he stepped aside and said to his followers, "Sure enough, he is the most important general that Xianggong relies on. Just by opening his mouth, he judged Xianggong's difficulties."

The entourage said: "Otherwise, why would Mr. Xiang leave his own sons behind and support him with all his strength?"

The man nodded, "This man has been smart since he was a child, but he's just a bit cold, even when facing his husband, he still has a cold face. It's strange to say that other people like this will definitely be taken care of by him, but he has been safe and sound, and his husband has become more and more serious." It's really strange that you value him."

The entourage laughed and said, "Maybe it's the fate of the eyes!"

"I think it's more about ability. If this person has ability, how can he not be respected?!"

Shen Changhe is here.

"Master, but is there an order from Xianggong?"

Lin Jun said: "Xianggong is planning two big tribes, and we need to fight for his face here."

Shen Changhe understood, "In this case, we must either reinforce or defeat Yang Xuan, there is no way to delay."

"I know."

Lin Jun suddenly sneered, "It was agreed at the beginning, let me do whatever I want here, but he changed his mind."

"Seizing a large tribe requires righteousness, such as fighting for the Daliao. But you can talk empty... Last time, the emperor took Taizhou and made Ningxing very angry. So, who would believe that the guild will serve the country and the people? ?”

"Why do you need to seek righteousness?" Lin Jun said: "I have at least five ways to take those two big tribes, Mr. Xiang's move...someone is behind the scenes."

"Your envoy means... the gentlemen of my husband?"

Lin Jun nodded, "Those people have disliked me for a long time, and they always thought that I took their opportunity. But those idiots don't even think about it, just relying on their own qualifications to lead the army to fight? They only know about fighting for power, but they don't know Knowing that the tiger and wolf are on the side. The emperor and the eldest princess are all watching, and the internal chaos will only make them easier."

Shen Changhe smiled wryly, "But that is the son of my husband after all."

"This time it must have been their instigation to intervene." Lin Jun said sarcastically, "In this way, I have fulfilled their wish."

He beckoned, and the man came over.

"I'll do my best on this matter."

The man saluted and said joyfully: "Your envoy is a famous general in Daliao, how many people in Ningxing are waiting for the good news of your envoy. Before the villain leaves, let me tell you that this battle is of great importance, and you must do your best. "

"I know."

Lin Jun looked indifferent, but those who knew him had long been used to it.

"Eat some dry food and leave later!"

Lin Jun ordered.

He sat down by himself, surrounded by guards and Shen Changhe.

The servant was eating dry food, laughing while eating, "If Lin Ya puts pressure on him, how dare he refuse?"

The entourage said: "Yes! Lin Ya gave everything to him, Lin Ya can give it, and he can also receive it."

Lin Jun ate dry food silently, while Shen Changhe beside him was observing the five thousand cavalry.

"My lord, those five thousand riders seem to be quite elite."

Lin Jun nodded, "I said before that the battle is outside, not inside. If Ning Xing doesn't interfere, I will be sure to keep Yang Xuan in check. When reinforcements arrive, Yang Xuan will either retreat or risk a decisive battle. ...Daliao can be defeated, but he cannot be defeated, so he will definitely withdraw his troops."

He took a bite of the dry biscuit and chewed slowly.

"Ningxing still has an envoy."

There was more coldness in his eyes.

Shen Changhe's heart trembled, "My lord, that's my husband."

"Ok!"

After eating dry food and resting for a while, Lin Jun gave the order to set off.

On the opposite side, Yang Xuan also found him, and he just set off now.

The scouts from both sides soon ran into each other.

"My lord, the northern border army is here."

"It's a pity!" Lin Ya's messenger was full of regret.

The waiter was also a little disappointed.

"If he could be easily attacked by someone, where would he be today?"

A group of idiots made Lin Jun even more bored.

"Let the five thousand riders go to the left flank and prepare for an ambush."

"Leader!"

When he learned that he was going to ambush, the general of the reinforcements relaxed his guard and even bowed his hands at Lin Jun. "Thank you envoy!"

Before coming here, there was an explanation from above, telling him to be careful not to be sacrificed by Lin Jun.

Now it seems that Shangguan is too worried.

"The rest." Lin Jun drew his sword, "Follow me!"

"Your envoy is really brave!" Even the servants had nothing to say.

Lin Ya's envoy sighed: "What a wonderful person, unfortunately, he is not the son of my husband."

On the opposite side, Yang Xuan received the report from the scouts.

"Lin Jun led the army to come."

"how many people?"

"Twenty-four thousand five!"

"This is an all-out attack!" Han Ji stroked his beard, "A decisive battle?"

"It's the posture of a decisive battle." The old thief said.

Yang Xuan felt that something was wrong.

"A decisive battle is a decisive battle, but who is Lin Jun? Even if it is a decisive battle, you have to leave yourself a backup, isn't it? To surprise the whole army and put all your eggs in one basket... This is not his style."

"How does the Duke know what he's thinking?" Jiang He'er asked.

Yang Xuan sighed, "Because I think so too. Old thief!"

"exist!"

"You lead the army to search on the right wing, squatting, understand?"

"If you find an enemy ambush, then attack. If not, then ambush Lin Jun's troops."

It's time to leave the army...Yang Xuan nodded in satisfaction, "Gong Tu, you lead the army to the left!"

When everyone set off, Yang Xuan said: "This is a fight. Lin Jun made an all-army assault. It seems scary, but it hasn't changed, so why fight?"

The two sides kept getting closer.

Immediately hit.

After fighting for only a quarter of an hour, Lin Jun's face turned livid, "Yang Xuan's troops are wrong, six or seven thousand people are missing, be careful of ambushes!"

The servant's face was pale, "Yang Gou is the best at ambushes!"

Lin Ya's envoy also felt awe-inspiring, and couldn't help looking left and right.

Lin Jun winked, Shen Changhe was taken aback, but he still understood: "There are Yang Xuan's ambush on the two wings, retreat! Withdraw!"

At this moment, the two sides have only been in contact for a short time, and have not deepened it.

Lin Jun retreated like a tide.

On the side of the Northern Border Army, everyone was confused.

Several riders came at a gallop.

"The old thief found five thousand ambush soldiers."

"This method, Te Niang's, is too crude. Lin Jun's troops are here, and those 5000 people are mostly reinforcements. This is..." Yang Xuan stroked his chin and sighed, "If that's the case, I'll accept it."

Immediately, [-] cavalry were dispatched to the right flank, and Yang Xuan led the main force to pursue and kill them.

But Lin Junbu ran too fast.

Yang Xuan reined in his horse, "Shout out, I will accept the five thousand riders, thank you Mr. Lin!"

It's so fucking dark...Han Ji's eyes were shining brightly, and he felt that he would have a future with such a master.

The soldiers shouted: "The five thousand cavalry, the Duke accepted it with a smile, thank you Mr. Lin!"

The servant stared at Lin Ya sharply.

"What a thief!"
