"Tang Army scout discovered!"

Outside the duty room, the sergeant loudly reported.

He Lianrong looked at the document in his hand and remained motionless.

"I'll take my leave, villain."

Kanazawa waved his hand, waited for the sergeant to leave, and said, "The envoy has gone to the top of the city."

"Well!" He Lianrong picked up the brush, licked the ink in the inkstone, and looked up at Kanazawa, "The emperor's uncle's position is closely following His Majesty, which is not good for Lin Ya and others, nor for the powerful. Therefore, they

They all hope that I will fall into trouble in Tanzhou."

He lowered his head, wrote down his opinions on the document, put the brush on the pen holder, closed the document, and placed it on the upper right corner of the table, "But it has always been difficult for emperors and crown princes to coexist peacefully. The emperor's uncle is slowly

Expanding one's own power is a necessary action for a crown prince, otherwise one day... will the emperor's uncle be allowed to succeed alone? Looking at it from a glance, they are not his ministers, what can this Daliao expect? "

Kanazawa smiled bitterly, "The emperor also knows it, but power is tempting!"

"Look at the Tang Dynasty, the same is true. The emperor wished he could make the crown prince a fool and throw him in the East Palace to show off. The same is true for the Liao Dynasty."

"Shijun, be careful!" Kanazawa stood up and went out, looked around, came back and sat down.

"Your Majesty wants to use the Emperor's uncle, but he is also afraid of the Emperor's uncle. There will be no conflict between the two of them. So, where should you vent your anger? Isn't it on our heads?"

He Lianrong rarely complained, and then smiled bitterly, "I've lost my composure."

"Yang Dog's army is at your side, and you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders, alas!"

"I'm not afraid of Yang Gou." He Lianrong said calmly: "If he attacks and we defend, how many lives will Chenzhou's army have to take? I'm glad to hear it!"

Jinze smiled and said: "The envoy is just waiting for the news of Yang Gou's return or a big defeat."

March south!

The news has been confirmed that Daliao will launch a southern expedition this year.

Before a war, there will be some outpost battles, such as the current battle of Chenzhou and Tanzhou.

Outpost battles are very useful in testing the opponent's strength, but for the huge Northern Liao Empire, what is more important is whether this battle can give a good start to the Southern Expedition.

He Lianrong knew this, and so did Jin Ze.

The envoy was also waiting to bring the good news back to Ningxing, but the emperor was so excited that he could not give him a reward.

Everyone wants to gain from this war.

"Go to the top of the city and have a look."

He Lianrong stood up and moved his body.

Xiao Manyan was on the top of the city, more than twenty steps away from the envoy.

This was a distance where each other could relax. The messenger and his followers would point outside from time to time, and occasionally be blown away by the wind and say a few words.

"The envoy is here."

He Lianrong came up, and Xiao Manyan led people to greet him.

"how?"

Xiao Manyan asked, nodding slightly to the messenger on the left.

Xiao Manyan said: "Yang Gou's scouts are fierce and have blocked our army."

"It was expected." He Lianrong asked, "How is he?"

Xiao Manyan glanced at the envoy and said, "He has been bragging for a long time, saying that if he leads the army, he will definitely defeat Yang Gou in an upright manner... set up a battle formation, have a big battle, and beat Yang Gou."

"What do you think?" He Lianrong was noncommittal.

"In a fair and upright battle, our army has a high chance of victory."

"It seems that you were defeated last time unwillingly."

"Yes, if it weren't for the ambush, our army would not have been defeated!"

To this day, Xiao Manyan still can't forget that ambush battle.

His eyes were slightly red, and he took a deep breath to suppress his emotions.

"Be more calm." He Lianrong placed one hand on the top of the city and looked to the right, "How long can the Yanbei side hold on?"

"At least half a month." Xiao Manyan analyzed: "Four bed slaves can suppress the group of big men around Yang Gou. He can only choose ants to attack the city. Ants to attack the city... Pei Jiu died in Chang'an back then.

As Liaonan goes south, the ants attack the city."

Huang Chunhui stepped forward and led the Northern Xinjiang Army to block Beiliao's offensive.

That battle was a bloody one, and Daliao suffered heavy casualties.

He Lianrong asked: "If it happened again, would you still dare to attack the city with ants?"

Xiao Manyan stared into the distance blankly, slowly making fists with both hands.

"In another battle, I will be the first to climb to the top of Lin'an City!"

The envoy came over and handed over his hand, "It is said that the scout was blocked by Chenzhou's army. Is there any way to get the information?" He smiled apologetically, "No way, Ning Xing needs information, and His Majesty needs information."

When the envoy saw that he was a senior official, He Lianrong was also worried that he would say bad things about him when he went back, so he hurriedly explained: "The Chenzhou Army blocked the passage leading to the Yanbei line, which proves that a fierce battle is underway."

"I need to know the outcome." The messenger said, "This way, I can pass the news back."

Or use identity to suppress.

He Lianrong was a little disgusted, but he said sincerely: "Don't worry, envoy, Yanbei is not aggressive enough, but if it is stubborn enough, it will definitely make Yang Gou bang his head under the city and bleed him to death."

The messenger nodded, "That's a good thing. However, hearing is false and seeing is true, otherwise it will be difficult to write a memorial."

Han Hu's choice of words was a big taboo for the messenger. Once things changed, He Lianfeng could skin him.

The messenger made several hints, urging He Lianrong to open the passage to Yanbei, so as to at least get the battle situation under control.

He Lianrong said with a smile: "That's easy to say." Then, he said to Xiao Manyan: "Assemble the elite rangers to attack, and we must find out the news."

"Take orders!"

Xiao Manyan handed over his hand and was about to go down to the top of the city.

"look!"

The messenger pointed into the distance, "The scouts are back."

Many scouts have gone there in the past few days, but most of them came back with heavy casualties.

Xiao Manyan turned around and took a look, her eyes narrowed, "Be alert!"

The soldiers at the top of the city grasped their swords, spears and long bows.

Hundreds of cavalry Tanzhou troops were chasing dozens of Tang army scouts.

"It's a Tang Army scout!"

Xiao Manyan sneered, "This is a demonstration."

The messenger asked: "Why do you say that?"

This idiot... Xiao Manyan said: "If you were looking for information, you should go back now. But they kept coming down to the city. This is a demonstration."

"Eh!"

The messenger pointed at the leading Tang Army scout and asked, "Why is there so much smoke and dust behind that man's horse?"

"Didn't see clearly!"

He Lianrong said in confusion: "Could it be that you are dragging something?"

"The two sergeants behind that man...what are they carrying? They are bulging."

The messenger has good eyesight.

A sergeant's expression changed slightly, "It's Wang Laoer, and those two are his followers, who specialize in carrying human heads!"

"Headed Devil!"

When the envoy saw that the sergeants looked ugly, he asked, "Who is Mr. Wang?"

Xiao Manyan said: "The generals under Yang Gou are brave and obsessed with harvesting human heads."

"Morale has dropped." The messenger shook his head, "There are no warriors in Tanzhou?"

Wang Laoer and his men rushed to a place less than a mile away from the city and rode their horses to turn.

Dozens of horses turned in unison, their horses' hooves creating a puff of smoke on the ground.

A string of heads dragged behind Wang Laoer flew up.

He turned around and cut off the rope with a knife, and the heads flew over staggeringly, then fell heavily and slid towards Tanzhou City.

The pursuers behind him were in hot pursuit.

Wang Laoer shouted: "Throw it away!"

The two elders carried the bulging sacks and threw them away with all their strength.
