Monument Yangmen

Chapter 743 Everyone has their own calculations (New Year...must be happy)

"I go!"

Yang Wu immediately called out to fight.

Yang San glanced at him, and said angrily: "With your character, you will die after you go. Let me go. After I go, if I encounter danger, I can still deal with it."

"I have experienced many battles. Let me sneak attack Tanzhou and sit in Tanzhou. I will be able to protect Tanzhou completely. On the contrary, if Tanzhou is defended by you, the enemy may be able to take it with one blow."

"Ha ha……"

The two immediately fought together, refusing to give in to each other.

Yang Qi looked at the two speechlessly, curled his lips and said, "I haven't decided whether to adopt this tactic, but you are rushing to go to Tanzhou?"

Yang San and Yang Wu looked at Yang Qi at the same time, they looked like idiots.

Yang Wu yelled unceremoniously: "You won't adopt such a favorable tactic? Are you out of your mind?"

Yang San nodded in agreement, "This is a once-and-for-all solution. As long as we win, the Liao Kingdom will have nothing to fear in the future. Maybe we can go to Shangjing this time."

Yang Qi shook his head and sighed, "It's unrealistic..."

"why?"

"We are not a huge country like Song and Liao. In terms of background, we are much worse than others. If we win, we can certainly take advantage of the victory and attack more places in Liao.

But after taking these places?Do we have enough people to populate these places?Do we have enough officers to run these places? "

Yang Qi asked himself and answered, "We don't have...we don't have enough people, and we don't have enough officials. After occupying so many places, no one will take care of them. In the end, they will only be reoccupied by the Liao people."

Yang San frowned, lowered his head and pondered what Yang Qi said.

Yang Wu scratched his head and said, "Then we can only occupy the Sixteen States of Yanyun?"

Yang Qi nodded.

Yang San thought for a while, then he got hesitant, and said: "Even so, we have to disable the Liao people. Only after they are disabled, they will not trouble us in the future."

After a pause, Yang San said solemnly: "I still insist on using the tactics I just mentioned. Although it is a bit risky, once we win, we will get a stable Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures."

Yang Wu nodded in agreement and said, "I agree too."

Yang Qi frowned, and said in a deep voice, "It's too dangerous..."

"Hahaha……"

Yang San smiled heartily, and said: "When I fought in the battlefield, I was already prepared to return the shroud of horse leather. Every expedition is accompanied by danger, and no one can guarantee that he will be completely free from harm throughout his life.

Going to Tanzhou is certainly dangerous.But after it was done, the results were astonishing.

It's worth the gamble. "

Yang Wu said: "Even if you die, as long as you can take back the Yanyun Sixteen States, it is worth it."

"But……"

Yang Qi still hesitated.

Yang San and Yang Wu looked at each other, and Yang San smiled and said, "Seventh brother, you have done enough. Although we brothers still can't understand your intentions for doing these things, we can feel that you are For us, and for this family, we have done so much.

Otherwise, with your literary talents, it's not a problem to be a handsome young master in Bianjing City, or to be the ruler and live a comfortable life. "

Yang Qi smiled dryly, and said, "Maybe, I was born to be a restless person. I even have the ambition to dominate the world..."

Yang San and Yang Wu heard the words, looked at each other again, and smiled.

Yang Qi felt that their smiles were weird.

But neither of them explained too much, even the straight-tempered Yang Wu didn't say anything.

Yang San and Yang Wu played a charade.

Yang San said after a while: "Let me go to Tanzhou."

Yang Qi and Yang Wu just wanted to stop them, but Yang San didn't let them speak out.

Yang San said quietly: "Just treat me as the elder brother, and it's the first time I use my elder brother's status to ask for a chance to go out from you. You won't refuse me, will you?"

"Humph!"

Yang Wu snorted coldly, and turned his head away to sulk.

Yang Qi sighed helplessly.

"Then do it."

Yang San smiled and said: "Then I'll go and prepare. I'll set off tomorrow to find the second brother for a round. You have to write me a handwritten letter, so that I can dispatch a team of soldiers from the second brother."

Now that the tactic of encircling Youzhou City has been decided by using encirclement points to fight for aid.

It is naturally impossible for Yang San to take away the soldiers and horses from Tongtai Pass.

At present, the only troops under Yang Er's command can send troops to Yang San to go to Tanzhou.

Yang Er has 20 soldiers and horses under his command. If he gave up attacking Yuguan and rescued Shi Shouxin, he could just divide his troops into two groups, one to Jizhou and the other to Tanzhou.

"Master..."

Not long after Yang Qi and the others decided on the tactics, Peng Pai came back after cleaning the battlefield.

Peng Pai came to Yang Qi's side, bowed and said: "Master, according to statistics, in this battle, our army killed 400 enemies and captured 23 prisoners. There were 28 Han people in the Liao area, [-] horses, and [-] horses. There are countless sheep.

Our army killed 840 people, slightly injured [-], and seriously injured [-]."

"So few serious injuries?"

After waiting for a while, Yang Qi asked a question in astonishment when Peng Pai continued to report.

Peng Pai gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Most of the brothers who were seriously injured did not go to the battlefield, nor were they carried away by the doctors accompanying the army. They all chose to fight the Liao people. Even if they died, they would fight the Liao army to death. The people who live in Liao will not let go."

Yang Qi's mood suddenly became very heavy, "They are all loyal people! They are the heroes of my four northwest prefectures. As long as my four northwest prefectures are still there, people can't forget them as heroes."

Yang Qi instructed Peng Pai: "As usual, after the sacrifice, seal the coffin and send it to Zhongyi Mountain."

Peng Pai solemnly said: "No!"

Yang Qi turned to Yang San and Yang Wu and said, "Third Brother, Fifth Brother, follow me to pay homage to the brothers who died in battle."

Yang San and Yang Wu stood up and said in a deep voice, "It should be so."

The night is deep.

But none of the soldiers slept.

They gathered in Tongtaiguan City.

On the school field at the gate of the city, corpses in robes were neatly placed there.

The bonfire lit in the middle of the school grounds lit up half the sky.

Yang Qi held up a bowl of water and wine and shouted loudly, "Brothers, the souls are back!"

"The soul is back!"

"The soul is back!"

"..."

"On the day you step through the Yanyun, see you again at Zhongyi Mountain!"

"Dian!"

"Snapped!"

Bowls of wine fluttered down with the wind, and the dead soldiers seemed to come back to life. They rushed to the brothers and drank and had fun with them.

"Autumn wind Xiao Xiaochou kills..."

"..."

Someone sang the Han Yuefu folk song "Ancient Song", and the rest of the brothers sang along.

The singing voices converged into a torrent, rushing straight to Xiaohan, sending the souls of the soldiers who died in battle into the Nine Heavens.

The soldiers just sang and sang.

I don't know how long I sang.

The next morning.

After the soldiers woke up from their tents, they still seemed to be able to hear the song of returning home, rippling in the sky above Tongtai Pass.

Yang Qi got up very early, as early as dawn.

Because he wants to send Yang San out of the customs to chase Yang Er.

Before leaving, the three brothers hugged each other, patted each other on the back, and finally smiled at each other without saying a word.

it is more than words.

Yang San left very coolly.

He didn't go alone, behind him were five thousand soldiers from Zhentian Battalion, twenty cannons, and ten thousand civilian husbands.

Yang Qi insisted that Yang San take these things with him.

With artillery, Yang San's attack on Tanzhou will be much smoother.

Yang San insisted on going to Tanzhou, what he was thinking in his heart, Yang Wu and Yang Qi had some guesses in their minds.

The ancestors of the Yang family died countless times on the battlefield, so there is no reason that their generation can all live safely and soundly.

Dangerous things have to be done by someone.

And as an elder brother, he would never watch his younger brother die before himself.

After Yang San left.

Yang Qi returned to Tongtai Pass, and after rectifying the soldiers and horses, the army officially set off and headed for Youzhou City.

A group of people walked out of Tongtai Pass in a mighty manner.

By the time we arrived at Youzhou City, it was already six days later.

Since Yang Qi's men were all heavily armored cavalry and escorted artillery, the march was extremely slow.

Summer quietly drifted by, time has come to autumn.

The trees and flowers outside the city of Youzhou were faintly yellow, but they were not as withered and yellow as in late autumn.

Since Yang Qichun's expedition to the present, more than half a year has passed without knowing it.

When Yang Qi arrived outside Youzhou City, looking at the scene outside Youzhou City, he gave a wry smile.

Brother Yeluxiu is worthy of being a master in the art of war, and he is impeccable with solid walls and clear fields.

Within ten miles outside the city of Youzhou, everything is bare except for wooden stakes standing there.

The rest are nothing.

Not only that, Brother Yelvxiu also took advantage of these few days to rest up the walls of Youzhou City.

Brother Yelvxiu did not bulldoze the tilted Youzhou city wall.

Pulled down and rebuilt, not enough time.

He could only do some hands and feet on the sloping city wall, and flattened all the climbable places on the south side of the city wall.

Then on the sloping city wall, wooden brackets were built for the soldiers to defend the city.

In addition, Brother Yeluxiu also built many protruding archery towers on the city wall.

There are also temporary urn cities.

The whole Youzhou City was made like an iron bucket by Brother Yeluxiu.

Yang Qi smiled helplessly after seeing this iron barrel-like city wall.

When artillery appears on the battlefield, any indestructible fortification will eventually become nothingness.

As long as Yang Qi is willing, he can easily use gunpowder to blow up the walls of Youzhou City.

But Yang Qi didn't do that. He ordered his troops to set up camp not far from Youzhou City. He had no intention of attacking the city at all. He just sent Jiao Zan, He Jing and others to call for formation.

He cooks tea and drinks by himself in the tent he has set up, enjoying himself leisurely.

In Youzhou City.

Brother Yeluxiu stood on a hidden watchtower, watching Yang Qi set up camp outside the city, frowning frequently.

"Why didn't he attack the city?"

Brother Yeluxiu turned his head away and asked Aunt Yelvmou Lu who was beside him.

Aunt Yelvmou Lu was obviously a little confused.

Although both belong to the royal family, Yelvmou Lugu is a fierce general and not good at resourcefulness.

How did Yang Qi know why he didn't attack the city?

But Brother Yeluxiu had a pair of tiger eyes, staring at him closely, he could only rack his brains and come up with an answer to deal with Brother Yeluxiu.

"Probably tired from the long journey and need to rest for a day. Isn't Song Jun like this often?"

Brother Yeluxiu frowned, and said in a deep voice, "This doesn't look like Yang Yansi's style. Although I can't figure out his strategy, I understand his style more or less.

He is a vigorous and decisive person. Once he decides to do something, even if it is full of difficulties, he will not hesitate.

Although Youzhou City was built into an iron wall by me, I believe that Yang Qi must have a way to break through Youzhou City.

Since he has a way to break through Youzhou City?Why wait. "

Brother Yeluxiu suddenly stopped playing the piano to the cow, he pondered for a long time, and finally said: "Yang Yansi must have some kind of plan..."

Brother Yeluxiu turned to Yelumou and Aunt Lu, "Send someone down to investigate."

Aunt Yelumou beat her chest with one hand and said, "No!"

"and many more!"

Aunt Yelumou Lu just took two steps when Yeluxiu called her back.

"What orders does Da Yue have?"

"Go and send someone to see where Yelu Xiezhen is."

"My subordinate, go here."

"..."

After Brother Yeluxiu sent Aunt Yelumou and Aunt Lu to go on an errand, he continued to stare blankly at the barracks in the four northwestern prefectures outside the city.

He didn't pay attention at all to Jiao Zan and He Jing's shouting under the city wall.

With Brother Yeluxiu's sharp eyes, it's impossible to see that these two people are playing soy sauce.

Not long after Aunt Yelu Mou went down, she hurried back to the top of the city.

"how?"

"Master Privy Envoy's soldiers and horses have already passed Shunzhou and are about to enter Yanzhou. As for Yang Yansi's plan, the time is too short, and his subordinates haven't found out yet."

Brother Yeluxiu didn't seem to hear the second half of Yelumou Lugu's sentence.

When he heard that Yelu Xiezhen's soldiers and horses had passed Shunzhou and were about to enter Yanzhou, a look of joy flashed in his eyes.

As long as Yelu Xiezhen crossed Yanzhou and Xinwu two prefectures to rendezvous, his plan would be in half.

Brother Yeluxiu looked south again at Yang Qi's soldiers and horses outside the city, and said with a confident smile: "You can't beat this king's trick. As long as you break through your defense in Yunzhou, the soldiers and horses under my command will be Can drive straight in, capture Yanmen Pass, enter Daizhou, and capture your Yang family alive.

When the time comes, this king will tie the women and children of your Yang family to the head of the city to see how you can break the city of Youzhou. "

Aunt Lu Mou of Yelu Mou laughed and said, "Da Yue is really a master of calculations, and he is worthy of being the God of War in Daliao."

Hearing the sound of flattering, Brother Yeluxiu was not only not happy, but instead put on a straight face and scolded: "Gu Mo Lu, when did you also learn the way people in Song Dynasty flatter you?

If flattery is useful, how could Song State be defeated steadily under the attack of my Daliao.

The reason why my Daliao was able to dominate thousands of miles is because of our own bravery.

Also, you have to remember that you belong to the royal family, the Yelu family.

The most noble race in Daliao.

In the past, only others have been able to flatter us, but our Yelu family members never flattered others. "

Aunt Yelumou flattered her on the horse's leg and was taught a lesson, but she just lowered her head and obediently admitted her mistake.

"Subordinates are convicted."

Brother Yeluxiu nodded in satisfaction.

At this moment, the commander of the army hurried up the archery tower, and said in a deep voice, "Da Yue, the left army supervisor of the Pishi army who was in charge of escorting the grain and grass was assassinated?"

Brother Yeluxiu stared and said in a deep voice, "Who did it?"

The commander of the army whispered: "A group of Han slaves..."

Brother Yeluxiu froze for a moment, frowned, and said, "It must be that he looked down on those Han slaves and oppressed them too much, which caused a backlash. Send those Han slaves to the border of Korea and let them dig ginseng. At the same time, go and warn the supervisors in the armies. , as well as the chief executive and quartermaster who escorted the grain and grass, let them not squeeze too much.

The war is imminent, and this king does not want trouble. "

"My subordinate understands."

Brother Yeluxiu treated the assassination of the Zuojun Supervisor of the Pishi Army as an ordinary Hannu rebound and wounded others, and he didn't take it to heart at all.

However, he didn't know that this was just the beginning.

Yang Qi has been running Scarecrow and Volcano Guard for several years, and he has spent countless money.

How many spies are lurking in the Liao Kingdom, and how deep are they lurking, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Yang Qiyi to give an accurate number for a while.

Because Yang Qi prepared too much to deal with the Liao Kingdom.

So the number of spies lurking in Liao is really huge.

If they engage in destructive things such as assassinations, sneak attacks, rumors, troubles, etc., they will definitely set off a big wave in the Liao Kingdom.
