Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 599
Liaodong.

Xiangping City.

Luo Cheng summoned the generals.

On the White Tiger Festival Hall, there are a lot of generals and schools.But the faces of all the generals are more solemn, not as relaxed as usual during military meetings.

"Everyone, you have also seen His Majesty's King Qin's edict. The Turkic wolf is ambitious. He took advantage of His Majesty's inspection of northern Xinjiang to conspire to rob the emperor and gather 30 Turks to go south. Now they have broken through the two counties of Mayi and Yanmen. Of the ten cities, only Yanmen County and Nao County are still holding on, and the rest are falling."

"Now the white-eyed wolf Duoji is attacking Yanmen day and night. Although there are 15 guards in Yanmen City, the 20 soldiers and civilians only have food for [-] days. Now a few days have passed, and they only have food for half a month."

Duan Dadao, deputy envoy of Jiedu, "Please Luo Shuai quickly mobilize troops to serve the king!"

"King Qin is natural. I called you here today to make arrangements for dispatching troops. Rescuing soldiers is like putting out a fire, so it's not too late. So I decided to go to the rescue with Qingqi, so as not to delay time on the way."

Luo Cheng announced that he would take [-] light cavalry and [-] heavy cavalry to rescue King Qin of Yanmen.

"Deputy Envoy Duan went with me to rescue him. In Liaodong, General Chang Shihou Mochen and Sima Weizheng were in charge. In addition, General Feng Xiaoci was in charge of Liaodong City. Fang Xuanling, the prefect of Xincheng, and Du Ruhui, the prefect of Liaoxi, cooperated together."

"General Song Laosheng, the prefect of Jian'an, General Luo Cunxiao, the prefect of Lushun, and General Qu Tutong, the prefect of Liucheng, will follow me to serve as king."

The fourth child said with a smile, "I'm happy to fight, I haven't beaten a Turk yet."

Luo Cheng arranged Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Luo Shixin, Shan Xiongxin, Zhai Rang, Huang Junhan, Xu Shiji, Pei Xingyan, Laizheng, Li Shimin, Duan Zhixuan and other generals to accompany the army.

Some old brothers such as Zhou Dewei and Zhou Xin were also arranged to stay behind.

"There are only [-] horsemen, isn't that too little?" Duan Da asked.

"Soldiers are expensive and fast, King Qin is even faster, the more soldiers, the slower, and we have to leave soldiers and horses to guard Liaodong and guard against Yuan."

"Of course, as soon as I received the King Qin's order, I sent someone to notify Khitan and Xiren to send troops to help out. I made an appointment with them to meet up in Beiping County, and they should also send some cavalry. "

Duan Da wanted Luo Suo, but Luo Cheng ignored him.

"Seal the appeasement envoy and the Li observation envoy."

Luo Cheng looked at Feng Lun and Li Baiyao. One of them was a conciliator and the other was an observer. If Luo Cheng and Duan Da were away, they could be regarded as the highest officials of Andong Road. Since Luo Cheng took Duan Da away Naturally, they don't want to keep these two, for fear that something bad will happen to them.

"I also invite the two of you to serve as king with me!"

Feng Lun is more tactful, he is from Yu Shiji, but after arriving in Liaodong, he is quite honest, and he gets along well with Luo Cheng, he didn't do anything bad on purpose, while Li Baiyao is more responsible.

Just in case, Luo Cheng is still worried about keeping them in Liaodong.

Feng Lun said, "I'm just an official of Andong Dao, and it's not my specialty to fight with the army."

"I know that King Keqin is a big deal, so it's more loyal to Feng Pacify to go together."

Feng Lun had no choice but to agree.

He knew Luo Cheng's plan in his heart. In fact, he had been in Liaodong for almost two years. Luo Cheng acted arbitrarily, but he didn't have any obvious reasons. How to make right with Luo Cheng.

But for two years, he has been unable to integrate into Luo Cheng's circle. He can see that Luo Cheng has really built a big mountain in Liaodong.

After the military discussion, all the generals went to prepare.

Luo Cheng talked to Hou Mochen and Wei Zheng who were in charge of staying behind. These two were considered confidantes, and there was nothing he could not say to them.

"If the Yuan family dares to commit an offense, we can send the Qidan, Xiren, and Shiwei people to attack Yuchuan and force him to save himself. If we don't stop, we can send a troop across the sea to land in Pyongyang, and join forces with Yang Wanchun and the Silla people to attack. Yuanshi."

"But if Yuanshi doesn't move, don't mess with him. It won't be too late to deal with him after I come back."

Wei Zheng smiled.

"The autumn harvest is about to come. This is not a good time to fight. I'm afraid that if we don't fight the Yuan family, they will take advantage of the opportunity to attack us, especially if they don't come to attack the city, but just grab the crops everywhere. Even directly burning food, that would be a heavy blow to us."

"You are right, so this time I will only take away [-] cavalry, and try to keep as many soldiers at home as possible. When the food is cooked, organize a rush to collect it. If it is not possible, set it on fire first, and don't let the Yuan family grab it." Go, don't worry, we have saved some food now, even if we lose a little, we can still sustain it, and when I come back, they will have to pay back a hundred times."

Qiushou sent troops immediately, which Luo Cheng didn't want.

But right now it is impossible not to send troops, he must send troops to the siege of Yanmen.

Historically, the emperor lasted for more than a month without breaking the city, and reinforcements from all walks of life arrived. Even Wang Shichong, who was far away in Jianghuai, brought Jianghuai soldiers to arrive. Therefore, if Luo Cheng did not go, the consequences would be very serious.

Whether it was to prevent the Turkic people from breaking Yanmen, or to show their loyalty, Luo Chengcheng had to make this trip.

August seventeenth.

Luo Cheng led [-] light and heavy cavalry across the Liao River and headed west.

Everyone rides on both sides.

Each person carries a hundred arrows, two bows and five strings.

In addition, I only brought meat floss, fried noodles and some refined horse ingredients.

Nothing else.

The soldiers and horses marched lightly, traveling two hundred miles a day, almost non-stop, and the horses changed without stopping.

It took four days, and Luo Cheng led 2000 people from Liaodong City to Linyu Pass.

More than seven hundred miles, only four days.

Under Linyu Pass.

Two tribes of soldiers and horses are already waiting for him.

"Kumoxi Mohefu, who can save the catty, and his son Su Zhi led three thousand tribal warriors to come here under Luo Shuai's order!"

A burly and tall man bowed to Luo Cheng.

"Thank you."

The saver was still a little uneasy and said, "Because of the urgency of time, I only came and recruited [-] warriors to come, and I hope the commander will forgive me."

"Three thousand is already quite a lot. Those who can be saved, you have proved your loyalty to Tai Sui, and you will be rewarded."

The Khan Dahe Duoluo of the Khitan tribe also hurried up.

"Khitan Dahe Duoluo and Zimo will lead five thousand warriors to listen to the order."

Khitan is still north of the Xi family, but five thousand people have come, which proves that Khitan is very sincere.

The Xiren and the Khitan used to be one, but later they were divided into two tribes. They were vassals of the Turks earlier, and later proclaimed their vassals to the Sui Dynasty.The Khitan people also turned against the Sui Dynasty at the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, but after being severely dealt with by the Sui people, they became honest.

Back then, the Sui army destroyed Khitan, causing the Khitan's ancient alliance of eight tribes to collapse. Now the eight tribes have been reorganized, and the Dahe clan has become the leader of the alliance.

After receiving Luo Cheng's urgent transfer order, he didn't dare to refuse the delay, so he hurried south.

Luo Cheng was very satisfied with the eight thousand Qingqi of Xi and Khitan.

In this way, plus his own [-] cavalry, there are [-] light cavalry.

"Entry!"

On August 2, Luo Cheng led Andong Dao, Kumoxi, and Khitan cavalry to enter the customs with a total of [-] troops.
