Monument Yangmen

Chapter 752 Who Counts Who?

On the fourth day.

Negotiations between the two sides ended in failure.

Han Derang shook off his sleeves and left Yang Qi's camp without looking back. After he walked outside the gate, he swept away all the colors on his face, leaving only a thick layer of sarcasm.

Looking back at Yang Qi's camp behind him, Han Derang murmured disdainfully, "What kind of northwestern tiger, the most talented man in the world, is so smart? You're not even worthy of carrying shoes for this old man, why don't you have to drink the old man's footwashing water."

After leaving those words behind, Han Derang proudly returned to Youzhou City.

His task was completed, and he used the peace talks as an excuse to delay Yang Qisi for four days, buying time for the soldiers and horses in Youzhou City.

At this moment, the soldiers and horses that must be divided into Tanzhou and Yanzhou have already arrived.

However, what Han Derang didn't expect was that when he was full of ambition.

In front of the big tent of the Chinese army in the four northwestern prefectures.

Yang Qi had a look of sarcasm on his face, and said disdainfully: "A group of clubs, trying to plot against me, there is no way."

With Han Derang's little acting skills, he was tired after performing in front of him for so long.

After ridiculing the Liao people in Youzhou City, Yang Qi recruited Peng Pai who was waiting at the side, "How is the arrangement?"

Peng Pai whispered: "Everything is ready."

Yang Qi nodded slowly, and said with a smile: "That's good, after so long, I just want to give them a surprise."

"Call the generals to discuss matters."

After everything was ready, Yang Qi started to gather people.

And in the distant city of Yanzhou.

The troops sent by Yelu Xiezhen and Yeluxiu merged into one place, raised 30 troops, and rushed towards the city wall of the ancient Zhao State.

The 30 army formed a mighty mass and killed them ferociously.

Yang Liu on the city wall of the ancient Zhao Kingdom has long been ready for battle.

After Yelu Xiezhen led the soldiers and horses to the city wall, he didn't hesitate at all and started attacking the city directly.

Sudden.

The city gate under the city wall of the ancient Zhao State, which had been closed for a long time, was opened wide.

The soldiers under Yang Liu's command rushed out in a mighty manner.

Seeing this, Yelu Xiezhen almost jumped up unhappy.

Under the huge disparity in military strength, Yang Liu not only did not defend the city, but led his troops out of the city to fight. What is the difference between this and courting death?
Yelu Xiezhen screamed happily: "Let's kill at the city gate! Break through the gate and occupy the wall!"

The soldiers of the Liao army did not hesitate, and rushed towards the city gate one by one.

In an instant, the soldiers and horses at the gate of the city crowded into a group.

Those who rushed out of the city and those who wanted to rush in from outside the city started a tragic fight at the gate of the city.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses gathered together, and suddenly the gate of the city became a sea of ​​people.

At the end of the fight, the soldiers behind surrounded the soldiers in front and kept rushing forward. In the end, the fight of swords and soldiers turned into a physical collision.

Squeezing and trampling became the main theme of killing enemies.

Indiscriminate methods have become the magic weapon for killing the enemy.

The place where the two armies fought soon turned into a mountain of corpses.

Yelu Xiezhen, who led the soldiers to kill, gradually felt something wrong.

Yang Liu has only 10 troops under his command, why can he fight against his 30 troops?
In a decisive battle, without the help of special weapons, the larger the number, the absolute advantage.

This is an inevitable answer.

But Yelu Xiezhen didn't feel that he had the upper hand, but had a tendency to collapse to the disadvantaged side.

Soon, Yelu Xiezhen knew why he was at a disadvantage.

Because the number of soldiers and horses rushing out of the city gate has far exceeded 10.

12……

15……

20……

30……

33……

There were as many as 33 soldiers and horses rushing out of the city.

Thirty thousand more troops than under Yelu Xiezhen's command.

Not only that.

Just when the two sides fell into a stalemate.

Suddenly, rows of crossbowmen and throwers appeared from the top of the city.

An old face appeared on the top of the wall in Yelu Xiezhen's terrified eyes, and then he raised a hand and gave orders coldly.

"put!"

"Zhou Yuxun?!!"

The rain of arrows fell all over the sky amidst Yelu Xiezhen's screams.

Gunpowder bombs shot into the Liao army formation under the projection of the throwing soldiers.

The Liao army fell like cutting wheat.

lost!

Before Yelu Xiezhen gave the order to withdraw, the Liao army, frightened by the rain of arrows and gunpowder bombs on the top of the city, fled in embarrassment.

And Yang Liu led 33 soldiers and horses, sticking behind them like a dog's skin plaster, making it difficult for them to get rid of.

Now Yelu Xiezhen finally understood why Yang Liu opened the city gate to fight him.

Not only did Yang Liu want to surpass him in terms of military strength, but he also wanted to stick to them so that they could not escape.

"General, let's go!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yelu Xiezhen's personal guards set up Yelu Xiezhen and ran away.

Yang Liu led the soldiers under his command and followed closely behind.

"I surrender!"

"I surrender!"

"..."

Constantly, the Liao army couldn't escape in time, and seeing that they were about to be overtaken, they knelt down on the ground and begged to surrender.

Yang Liu sent people to confiscate their weapons and asked the people behind to take the prisoners. He led the people to continue chasing Yelu Xiezhen.

The so-called don't chase after the poor are those generals on the battlefield bluffing.

After winning a battle, you don't pursue and flee the enemy, because you are afraid that the enemy will feign defeat and lure them into an ambush.

If you can confirm that the enemy is not in ambush, then you are a fool not to chase.

Obviously, Yelu Xiezhu must not have ambushed in the rear.

He came with the general trend, confident that he could defeat Yang Liu in one fell swoop on the city wall of the ancient Zhao Kingdom, so why bother to ambush him?

This is also the reason why Yang Liu can rest assured to pursue.

This pursuit lasted three days and three nights.

It wasn't until Yelu Xiezhen fled to Shunzhou that Yang Liu stopped his pursuit.

And Yanzhou City returned to Yang Liu's hands.

Yang Liu also fulfilled his promise to the old man who had helped him in Yanzhou City before. Within his authority, he gave the old man a large piece of land and a huge number of cattle and sheep.

after the war.

Inside the camp on the border of Shunzhou.

Yang Liu bowed to Zhe Yuxun and several brothers of the Zhe family, "Yang Yanzhao pays his respects to his uncle and his elder brothers."

"Hahaha……"

Zhe Yuxun laughed loudly, waved his hands and said: "Liu Lang doesn't need to be polite. Qi Lang really has no plans. He knew that the old man was short of people, so he sent someone to send a letter to the old man, saying that he would give the old man [-] young men, so that the old man Take it back to repair bridges and pave roads, and open mountains to pave roads.

He said that it is only necessary for the old man to lead the soldiers and horses under his command to Yanzhou.

The old man didn't believe it at first. The old man felt that the kid must be unable to bear it anymore, so he asked the old man, who is his uncle, for help.

Unexpectedly, it really made the kid talk.

The old man came with soldiers and horses, and the Liao people were defeated and fled before they could kill them.

The number of prisoners picked up along the way has exceeded 15, far exceeding the old man's expectations.

With these 15 captives, the old man will be able to pave a flat road like your four northwestern prefectures in the various places under the Zhe family's rule.

There are also many coal mines and iron mines, and there are enough people to mine them.

Shichiro is really my lucky star. "

Zhe Yuxun was right.

As early as when Yang Er sent people to inform him of his speculation about the Yuguan battle, Yang Qi had the idea of ​​inviting Zhejia to go to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

Originally, it was also for an extra guarantee.

But I didn't expect the situation on the battlefield to change rapidly.

Liao's grain and grass were in short supply, two days sooner than Yang Qi expected.

So Yang Qi had no choice but to play a scene with Han Derang, buying Zhe Yuxun some time to march.

Let the Zhejia army, who had already arrived in Yunzhou, rush eastward to the city wall of the ancient Zhao State.

Then he calculated Yelu Xiezhen fiercely.

In this battle, more than 6 Liao troops were killed and more than 15 prisoners were captured.

Not many cattle and sheep were seized, but nearly 30 war horses were seized.

But Yelu Xiezhen fled back to Shunzhou with less than 7 people.

As for the number of people sent out in the middle, [-]% of them were deserters, or they were scattered by the army.

In the camp.

Hearing Zhe Yuxun's words, Yang Liu said with an unnatural wry smile: "Uncle, you are too ruthless to squeeze wool, you took away 15 captives at once, and my nephew can't explain it to my seventh brother. "

Zhe Yuxun pretended to be deep and said: "That's it... the old man took all of them, it is really inappropriate. Then I will leave you 12, and the old man will only take [-]. What do you think?"

Yang Liu looked helplessly at Zhe Yuxun, "The agreement is [-]..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhe Yuxun became anxious, "What do you mean by that? Fifty thousand captives? What kind of beggars are you playing? Your Yang family is about to take the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun as their own. It expanded four times all of a sudden, earning a lot of money.

The old man led 30 soldiers and horses to help, and he didn't cut a piece of meat from Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures. He had already considered his uncle and nephew.

Now it's just a matter of taking prisoners, and you're going to have to deal with the old man too.

Do you not care about the relationship between us as uncle and nephew, or do you think the old man can only wait for you to finish eating the meat and then gnaw on the bones? "

Speaking of this, Zhe Yuxun said reluctantly: "Even if I let the old man gnaw on the bones, the old man will admit it. Who let the old man have such a group of heartless nephews like you?

But at least you put some shredded meat on the bone.

Pure bones let the old man gnaw, you are not afraid of choking the old man? "

The Zhe family brothers covered their faces in embarrassment.

Yang Liu was stunned.

Hearing what Zhe Yuxun said, he was indeed a bit pitiful, Yang Liu hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Up to [-]..."

Zhe Yuxun said forcefully: "One hundred thousand... One hundred thousand is missing, the old man can only go to my old sister with the cheek to talk about it."

Yang Liu said without temper: "One hundred thousand is one hundred thousand."

The two agreed to divide the number of prisoners.

Yang Liu left the camp.

He didn't see that after he left, Zhe Yuxun had a tricky smile on his face.

In terms of resourcefulness, in terms of seizing benefits, the simple Yang Liu is no match for the treacherous Zhe Yuxun.

"One hundred thousand captives...hehehe...can help us do a lot of things, and make the place under our Zhe family's rule become as prosperous as the four northwestern mansions of the Yang family."

Zhe Yuxun cheerfully made up his mind, and turned his head to show off to his sons.

But I saw my sons were far away from me one by one.

Immediately, Zhe Yuxun's face turned dark, "What? Do you think I, as an old man, have embarrassed you?"

The Zhe family brothers lowered their heads in embarrassment and did not speak.

Only the straightforward Zhe Weizhong nodded in embarrassment, and said, "It's really a bit embarrassing...you are his uncle, how could you be so..."

Zhe Weizhong couldn't say shameless words.

Zhe Yuxun glared, and reprimanded: "If it wasn't for you, I would have given up my face to bargain with my nephew? Look at them, they have quietly created the Northwest Sifu and Nanguo. Yun Shiliuzhou is also coming.

In the past, the old man could rely on his status and family background to reprimand them.

Now, people have grown to the point where even the old man, who is an uncle, has to talk with a smiling face.

If you try to win me over and make such a large family fortune, why do I still need to play tricks on others? "

The Zhe family brothers bowed their heads in shame.

I complained in my heart that the brothers of the Yang family were not human.

Everything he did was earth-shattering.

There is a lot of pressure to have them as relatives.

Zhe Yuxun glanced at the sons who bowed their heads and said nothing, and lowered their heads with a gloomy expression.

After a long while, Zhe Weizhong raised his head, and said firmly: "Sooner or later, the boy will conquer a territory as big as theirs, and the boy will never insult the name of the Zhe family."

Hearing this, Zhe Yuxun's gloomy expression eased a little.

When you meet a hero, if you can't develop a bit of rivalry or a desire to win, then you can only live mediocrely in this life.

Maybe you will never be able to catch up with a hero in your life.

But if you have the heart to win, you can constantly urge you to move forward.

With Yang Qi as the goal, even if you can't reach Yang Qi's footsteps, half of it is good, it is much better than others.

The reason why Zhe Yuxun said those words was to arouse his sons' competitive spirit.

But the sons looked like defeated roosters.

This made Zhe Yuxun feel like he had no successors.

Now Zhe Weizhong said that he wanted to win, which gave Zhe Yuxun hope again.

Zhe Yuxun took a deep breath, "After the battle here, we will return to Fuzhou. I had a secret conversation with Qilang before, and according to Qilang, there are many rich and prosperous places in the west and north of the territory we occupy .

After returning, we will open up west and north.

There are many countries in the Western Regions, but there are no powerful countries that can rival Liao and Song.

With the combat power of my Zhejia soldiers, it is enough to gallop.

There are thousands of miles of fertile land in the north, mostly unclaimed land, we can easily occupy it.

After returning, our father and son will work together, and one day, we will also be able to fight a territory that does not belong to the Song and Liao countries. "

Zhe Yuxun's words were deafening.

The Zhe family brothers heard the words and nodded in unison.

"The child will always remember the teachings of the father."

Zhe Yuxun taught his son in the camp, and Yang Liu deployed his defenses outside the camp.

According to Yang Qi's military order, the living circle of the Liao army was compressed, and no grain of grain was allowed to flow into the hands of the Liao army.

To achieve these two points, Yang Liu must deploy defenses on the border of Shunzhou, guard the western border of Shunzhou, and prevent the Liao army from having a chance to break out.

As long as the Liao army does not go out, they will not be able to get any food support.

at the same time.

It is far away from the mountain pass at the junction of Tanzhou and Shunzhou.

The 20 troops led by Yelumo to raid Tanzhou had just stepped out of Shunzhou.

The moment the horseshoe stepped out of Shunzhou.

Yelumo only has the spirit of sprouting from an old tree.

When he is old, he can lead the army to fight again instead of staying with the little emperor and the queen mother as guards. For an old general who has been fighting for many years, it means a new spring.

Yelumo only secretly made up his mind, this time he not only wanted to defeat Yang San's army in Tanzhou, but also to humiliate Fengpo.

It is a great honor to regain the dignity lost on the battlefield from the same opponent.

The autumn wind is proud and the horseshoe is anxious.

Yelumo is only confident in winning Tanzhou.

"Oh!"

Just when Yelumo was thinking about how to attack Tanzhou.

An explosion woke him up.

Immediately afterwards, there was a series of explosions.

Gunpowder bombs shot out one after another, falling into the Liao army who had not yet formed their formation.

Yelumo hadn't reacted yet.

A sound of shouting and killing instantly filled the entire mountain pass.

"Kill!"

Ambushes all over the mountains rushed out from all directions.

Yelumo only saw two people carrying spears and rushing to the front of the line.

There was a buzzing sound in my head, as if it exploded.

"There is an ambush!"

Yelumo only roared, without saying a word, he withdrew with his soldiers and horses, not even thinking about fighting with others.

Because the two people he saw rushing to the front, one was Yang San and the other was Yang Da.

Yang Da also appeared here.

That means that the enemy's reinforcements have arrived, and they are one step ahead of them, and have set up an ambush.

He had no other thoughts on his mind but to run.
