Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 883: Savage's Bane

The fire on the north bank of the Yalu River was full of fire, black smoke billowed, and all the military villages outside the Jurchen Palace lit up, and the mountains and plains were full of "savages" wearing animal skins. ≧≯≯

  

   A group of Khitan cavalry at the gate of the city brandished their weapons and shouted in horror. Surrounded by ragged savages of the tribe, a Khitan soldier was dragged down from the horse, and suddenly a large group of people frantically surrounded him, "Ah..." The screams of the cruel people rose with blood.

  

   There were several savages next to a Khitan soldier who was desperately tossing. The savage picked up the big stone with both hands and smashed it on the head of the Khitan soldier with blood and brain splatter everywhere.

  

   Smoke billowed in the city, and low houses and tents everywhere burned. Many panicked men, women and children fled in the smoke to beg for mercy. The savages looted the house arbitrarily, and bags of pearls, furs, ginseng and other things were carried out by the noisy crowd, and then the house was set on fire. A Khitan civil official was stabbed with a wooden fork and his whole body was covered in blood. He was not dead yet, and he screamed while crawling on the ground, and then the sharpened wooden stick greeted him again and was beaten to blood.

  

   A shirtless man riding a horse raised his fists and yelled "Wow" with his wide-eyed eyes, and the surrounding crowd danced and yelled.

  

   The women in poor clothes were chased out. They trembled with fright, and they were still being whiped and scolded by the savages with their heads down. There are old women from a few years old to fifty or sixty. The men were all killed, and the ground was full of dead bodies and moaning people.

  

  ...A few days later, Kuaima from the northeast reported directly to the Daliao King's account.

  

   An urgent report came, and the Korean army crossed the border! The Yalu River Jurchen Palace was besieged and captured by more than a dozen tribes, the city and village were looted, and the chief of soldiers and horses and the officials were slaughtered|killed!

  

   "This is rebellion, rebellion! We must teach those savages blood!" The nobles in the king's account were furious.

  

   At this time, someone said: "The chief of soldiers and horses guarding the Yalu River Jurchen Palace is the Daliao consort, and the princess is also in the Palace..."

  

   As a reminder, the ministers only remembered the princess... the half-sister of the first emperor Yelujing, the same mother-sister of the king of Yue Yelu.

  

  The person standing in the middle of the king's account blurted out: "All the women in the Grand Palace have been taken to the Savage Tribe. I heard that more than a dozen tribes gathered in the mountains for fun, and most of the women were tortured to death!"

  

   Suddenly there was an uproar in the king's account, and the Khitan noble ministers were all embarrassed and angry! The angry curses and the humiliating shouts made the big tent seem to explode.

  

"Tyrant|Jun" Yelujing was assassinated|After his death, a member of the Yizong party came to power. The princess was not only a person from the political enemy of the dynasty, but also lost power... However, in any case, it was also the blood of the Taizu, which was related to the royal family face. Such a thing, no matter which faction people are unacceptable shame|humiliation!

  

   Amidst the noise, Yang Dagon saw that the Privy Envoy of the North Court Yelu Xianzhen turned around, and Yang Dagon reminded him: "The King Yue has the best relationship with his sister of the same father and mother. He must be very sad when he learns this news."

  

   Xiao Siwen was standing behind Yelu Xiezhen, and when he heard Yang Dagon's words, he immediately remembered the secret letter he had previously received in Shangjing: The more king must be opposed.

  

   Just then, the thin Yelvxian raised the scepter in his hand, and the angry noise in the big tent gradually subsided. Ye Luxian's eyes were melancholy that didn't match his age, and he said, "How can I get revenge and resist foreign bandits?"

  

An aristocrat of the Yelv clan bowed and said, "Although Xu Guohan'er is a great enemy, the most hateful is the birth of the Jurchen savages. Xu Jun comes from the south, mostly infantry. The Dongdan government moved from Liaoyang to avoid Xu Jun's edge. Chen advocated that the army should retaliate against the students|Jurchen and the Koreans!"

  

   Yelv Xianzhen opened his mouth and said, "Where will the Dongdan Kingdom move?"

  

   The nobleman said: "Move back to Huhan City."

  

   Yelu obliquely said: "There are Sheng Jurchen tribes near the city of Huhan, and the largest Wanyan tribe is not far away. If those tribes also follow suit, what will they do?"

  

   Yeluhuer echoed: "Korea and Jurchen rebels are our important enemies."

  

Yang Dagon, who was standing behind, also bowed: "Goryeo made a tribute to Xu Chao a few years ago, and also sent some beauties to Guo Tiesmith. Now in this situation, Goryeo may have crossed with Xu, and the east and the west are attacking Daliao. ."

  

   Yeluxian looked at Xiao Simwen and asked, "What countermeasures does Xiao Gong have?"

  

   Everyone suddenly shut their mouths, their eyes turned, and the atmosphere became a bit subtle.

  

   Xiao Siwen raised his head and slowly said, "Since the court has made arrangements before, it is better to wait for the news of King Qi. If you can force Xu people back first, the chaos can be solved."

  

  ...Qi Wang Sage, the original knight was King Taiping, the younger brother of the first emperor Yelujing; but he was also Xiao Simwen's son-in-law, and he married Xiao Huyan, the eldest daughter of Xiao Simwen. After Yelvxian came to power, Appeasement wooed him, made him king of Qi, and still guarded Xijing.

  

   At the beginning of this year, Kunsa Gedai Xijing Tribal Army joined Wangzhang’s troops. Not long ago, he was dispatched to the south: attacking the Liaoxi Corridor and breaking the Xujun No. 6 Liangdao.

  

  罨Sa Ge Bu crossed the Daliao Bazhou (Chaoyang) and went south along the Linghe (Dalinghe). He decided to first go to Liucheng (Kalaqin left wing, north of the Liaoxi Corridor) by the Linghe River to find the Xi people, and join the local Xi soldiers to attack south from the important northern passage of the Liaoxi Corridor... The local Xi people are more familiar with the terrain.

  

  Unexpectedly, the striker had just arrived in Liucheng, but he saw that Liucheng Walled City was tightly closed, and he looked like an enemy.

  

   Ying Sa Ge and the general said: "Khitan and Kumo Xi have lived together for a hundred years. Xi people are our most trustworthy tribe. They will not betray us easily. Send someone to ask what's going on."

  

   When the Liao army was full of people and horses on the north bank of Linghe, Xi Ren finally opened the door and sent someone out.

  

   A Xi tribe led a team of horsemen and rushed to see the Khitan general, and said in a panic: "Great handsome, forgive me, at first we thought it was Han'er again."

  

  罨Sa Ge hurriedly asked: "Xu Jun attacked you?"

  

  Lead said: "I only came three days ago. They burned tents and villages and snatched cattle and sheep. Some tribesmen and herdsmen went to the city to ask for shelter, and some went north to hide in the mountains."

  

   "Which one is Xu Jun?" Feng Sage asked again.

  

The leader gestured and said: "The people who fled back said that Han'er is riding a horse in fine armor, and the generals who take the lead are twice as big as the others!" He exaggeratedly raised his hand to describe his head, "Full of iron armor, holding hands. A giant with a body of iron and a gun, no one can hold it, like a ghost that escaped from the underworld..."

  

   Immediately there was a general next to Feng Sage and said in a deep voice: "Xu Jun's first fierce general Shi Yan is nearby!"

  

  罨Sage's expression changed after hearing this, and he looked back around. On the opposite bank of the Ling River, the mountains are undulating, the woods are lush, and the surrounding terrain is very complicated. He followed the direction of the Linghe River and looked at the road south of Liucheng. The mountains on both sides of the river were towering, and the terrain gradually narrowed...

  

Xu Jun used ambush and siege tactics to make up for the lack of maneuverability of the infantry in the several battles of Youzhou, Pingxia, and Hedong. In the recent Hedong War, tens of thousands of Liao troops fell into a siege and suffered heavy casualties, shaking the world, and screaming. How do I not know?

  

   "Gah!" Suddenly there was a long roar of birds in the air, and the sound echoed in the mountains and forests on the opposite bank. Kun Sa Ge recovered, hurriedly moved his body, and subconsciously raised his head to look for the bird. The horse under the seat also moved its front feet and took a step back.

  

  罨Sage looked everywhere, but couldn't see the bird, only the shadow of the mountain was shaking around!

  

   Suddenly a general said: "My lord, we should send scouts to search the four fields first."

  

  罨Sage turned his head to see the horseman who looked like a long dragon on the north bank of the Linghe, staring: "Turn around! Leave here first!"

  

   The number of horses rushed out of the army, shouting the military order loudly, and the army was in an uproar. After a long time, the rear army became the front army, riding horses towards the northeast road; all the troops also turned around and retreated.

  

  罨Sa Ge led soldiers all the way out of a hundred miles, and the army continued to reach Bazhou, Daliao, before it stopped. The sky was already dark.

  

  The terrain of Bazhou is undulating, with mountains and hills on all sides. But at last there were no large mountains blocking the road. The cavalry could still gallop here, and the army could also be able to move away.

  

   Then he ordered the camp to be set up, and the next day forward Qianqi returned to Liucheng, and ordered them to investigate the military situation with the Xi people.

  

Tens of thousands of Xijing tribal troops stayed in Bazhou for five days. Qianfeng 6 continued to send people back to report. Sometimes it was said that embers and sheep bones were found on the mountain road, and sometimes it was said that there was no one on the hillside with abundant water plants... Some worthless news.

  

  罨Sage still doesn't know where Shi Yan is, or has retreated after the plunder.

  

   Soon, he got news again that Xu Guo's army had arrived in Jinzhou and was besieging Jinzhou City. As long as you climb over the mountains to the east, you can hear the gunfire.

  

   He discussed with the tribal leaders and generals in the Chinese army: "The enemy's situation is unknown. I have stayed here for too long. The chance of unexpected raids no longer exists. It is better to proceed cautiously and retreat first to make peace with the army of Wang Zhang."

  

   Everyone has different opinions ~www.readwn.com~ but some people also seconded the view of Kun Sage, "It is more wise to protect yourself than to defend yourself."

  

  罨Sage weighed repeatedly, planning to go south from Songling Mountain was in danger of being ambushed; he went to save Jinzhou nearby without getting permission from Wang Zhang. So Kun Sa Ge decided to retreat first.

  

  ...At this time, in Jinzhou City, the Xiaoling River and Tu River (Daughter River) were all pontoon bridges. Tens of thousands of troops surrounded the city, besieging the fortifications and fences like long walls.

  

   This city was originally built in the Tang Dynasty, and after several repairs and reconstructions, the ancient and outdated castle tower seems to be crumbling among the crowded barracks. After nightfall, the fire blazed into the sky, and the city seemed to be destroyed by fire at any time.

  

   Xu Jun built a cannon array on all sides, with the bronze gun muzzle facing the city wall. The siege has not yet begun, and the defender is full of despair. It is said that the tall and solid Youzhou City cannot stop Xu Jun's firearms, not to mention the ancient city of Jinzhou?

  

   Before the siege of the city, the defender had sent several quick horses to the north to ask for help. Now his only hope is that the Emperor Daliao will send reinforcements to come and rescue him! .8
