In Jiangzhou City, the scouts kept reporting back.
"The rangers behind the Northern Xinjiang Army are quite fierce. They often set up ambushes on both sides. If we stay away from them, we don't care. Once we get close, we will outflank them on both sides."
The scouts suffered heavy losses.
"This technique is simple, but effective."
Heliantong said: "No matter what the cost, we must find out clearly."
He is a veteran, and lives are just a number to him.
"Your Majesty is worried that Yang Xuan faked his shot?" Chen De asked.
"I don't know, but if he evacuates with one unit disguised as the main force, the main force will be waiting on one side." He Liantong said: "I can figure out other people's troops, but I can't figure out Yang Xuan's troops."
Soldiers have no constant momentum, and water has no constant shape. Yang Xuan's tactics in using soldiers are too many, which makes people unpredictable.
"Public opinion in Ningxing has become more and more intense." Chen De smiled bitterly, "Some people are even clamoring to take the king's head."
"As much as Ning Xing is afraid of Yang Xuan, the emotions that burst out at this moment will be so intense. I expected this." Chen De said: "As long as the eldest princess can persist, then I will just sit back and watch them make trouble."
Chen De said: "It's not easy for the eldest princess either."
"It is not easy, but when Daliao is in this situation, everyone should try their best." He Liantong breathed a sigh of relief, "In five days, it will be useless for those people to clamor."
In five days, according to the itinerary, the main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army will pass through Yanzhou and Cangzhou, and the Jiangzhou Army will not be able to pursue it.
This is Heliantong's method of delaying and delaying until it becomes an established fact.
"When the time comes, I will sit back and watch the battle between Northern Xinjiang and Chang'an. I will wait for the opportunity to send troops and fight desperately to capture Yanzhou and Cangzhou to re-establish a barrier for Daliao. Then slowly reform. Given time, Daliao will definitely be able to rise from the ashes."
Chen De was startled, "Your Majesty, you have never thought of taking the opportunity to counterattack Northern Xinjiang?"
"Others, I can think about it, but Yang Xuan, I don't want to!"
Heliantong smiled and said: "It's not that I think highly of him, but that I look down on that idiot Li Mi. If he takes the lead in sending troops to Northern Xinjiang, it will definitely be disadvantageous."
The sound of footsteps came.
A clerk came in and said, "Your Majesty, envoy Ning Xing is here."
"Please come in."
The messenger comes in.
"The imperial court has discussed and ordered the king to send troops!"
The messenger did not leave.
He will stay and supervise Heliantong's dispatch of troops.
"I'll go to Ningxing and let's talk!" He Liantong did not argue with the envoy. He knew that the envoy could not make the decision and arguing was useless.
The envoy said coldly: "I'm afraid the king doesn't know! The whole Ningxing is about to boil. If we don't send troops, someone will knock on the door. By the way, the door of the king's house has been smeared with a lot of dirt recently."
He Liantong said resolutely: "These old men don't care."
The envoy said: "If the king does not obey the order, the subordinates still have the will, and others can lead the army."
If you don’t go, others will!
There were countless generals in Ningxing waiting to send troops to make meritorious deeds.
Heliantong sat down silently.
After a long moment, he raised his head and asked, "What does Ning Xing mean?"
The messenger said:
"Take advantage of his illness to kill him!"
In a mountain col more than a hundred miles away from Jiangzhou, the army was resting.
Yang Xuan and his men built a smokeless stove, so that the whole army could eat hot food.
Steaming pancakes, cooked mutton soup, and dried vegetables in it, which is slightly sweet.
A bite of pancake and a bite of soup, Yang Xuan ate very heartily.
"Reserved." Ning Yayun laughed at him for not showing off.
"What's the point of being reserved?" Yang Xuan said, "People eat whole grains.
They are all the same, and there is no distinction between them in essence."
"What you said is a bit deviant." Ning Yayun ate freely and freely.
"They are all human beings." Yang Xuan answered him in three words.
People should eat, drink and poop. There is no difference between the pooping of noble people and the pooping of ordinary people.
"The so-called noble man is wrong."
"Oh! Why?" Ning Yayun likes to discuss such questions.
Yang Xuan took a sip of the soup and said, "What is valuable is not people, but status, money, and reputation."
"Interesting statement." Ning Yayun agreed with this statement.
Pei Jian came, "My lord, the Jiangzhou army still hasn't moved."
"There's no rush."
Yang Xuan took the pancake and took a bite, feeling the chewy texture and the aroma of the dough, "What do the people of Northern Liao fear most? It's not the Shegu people but the Northern Xinjiang people.
There are more and more fields in northern Xinjiang, trade is becoming more and more prosperous, and more and more money and grain are collected every year.
With every passing year, the strength of Northern Xinjiang will reach a higher level.
The leader of the Northern Liao Dynasty, Shao Guoyu, is facing the dilemma of being attacked from two sides. They are declining, and we are rising.
The existence of Bei Xinjiang is like a knife hanging over Bei Liao's head. God knows when this knife will fall.
For a long time, those people have not seen the hope of defeating Northern Xinjiang, so when this hope appears, everyone will go crazy. And I asked Bao Dong and the others to sneak into Ningxing, which just accelerated the process."
Ning Yayun asked: "Are you trying to say that Ning Xing will definitely be unable to bear it?"
"If someone tells you that as long as you go to Chang'an, you will give Xuan Xue a gold medal to avoid death. From now on, as long as Xuan Xue does not rebel, future emperors will not be able to do anything to Xuan Xue. Are you willing to go?" Yang Xuan asked.
Ning Yayun thought for a moment. "Yes! But, what does this have to do with the current situation?"
"Of course there is." Yang Xuan put down the bowl, "Defeat Bei Xin and defeat me. From now on, Datang will not pose a threat to Bei Liao. This is Bei Liao's death-free gold medal."
"Interesting metaphor." Ning Yayun said, "What if they don't come?"
You are going to carry it with me!
Yang Xuan said: "They must come."
"So determined?"
"Because this is the human heart!"
Ning Yayun said: "The most difficult thing to plot in the world is the human heart, and the easiest thing to plot is the human heart. My words are just to comfort you. Don't worry!"
Yang Xuan was so angry that he almost vomited blood, "You are just teasing me!"
"Haha!" Lao Shuaiguo smiled.
The messenger from Taoxian County has arrived.
"My lord, over in Dengzhou, the Dengzhou army has been recalled."
"Why?"
"The governor of Dengzhou is worried about angering our northern Xinjiang."
grass!
Yang Xuan said: "He is actually a timid person!"
Ning Yayun said: "Do you think everyone is as bold as you?"
Yang Xuan said: "Even if the spies from Jingtai get the news, they will still fall behind Taoxian County. They still have to find a way to cross the blockade of our northern Xinjiang scouts. Five days! Within five days!"
"Within five days, according to the pace, the army should cross the Yanzhou line. It would be pointless for He Liantong to pursue him again." Jiang Cunzhong was impatient.
After dinner, Yang Xuan called for He Lianrong and He Lianyan.
"If the little emperor steps down, who will take over?"
Yang Xuan asked this question.
He Lianrong said: "What does the Duke mean? Can't the little emperor suppress this situation?"
Yang Xuan nodded, "Currently, Northern Liao is experiencing internal and external troubles, and the young emperor is just a puppet. Although Changling controls the government, the people below have different ideas, and she cannot cover everything."
"Regardless of blood relationship, there are many suitable people in the clan." He Lianyan said.
"Who will the ministers support?" Yang Xuan asked.
He Lianyan looked at He Lianrong, this question was suitable for him to answer.
He Lianrong said: "Everyone wants to achieve the merit of Conglong. If the throne of the emperor is vacant, the Northern Liao Dynasty has been established for many years, and there are many cliques in the court. Those people will form a group to seek the merit of Conglong. Afterwards, there will be chaos."
He Lianrong understood clearly, "The Duke is saying that Ning Xing will inevitably face such a situation?"
Yang Xuan nodded, "The little emperor has not been in court for many days, so there must be something wrong. Then Changling will face the situation of fighting for the throne. The court is in chaos, and the clan is beating people's brains into dog brains... At this time, I am in Northern Xinjiang.
He was staring at me so fiercely that she might not be able to sleep at night."
He Lianrong nodded, "The best way is to get rid of the outsiders first!"
He looked at Yang Xuan, "The Duke's plan will make Ning
Those people’s thoughts have all been taken into account.”
This is the British Master!
Yang Xuan went to find Pei Jian.
He Lianrong said to He Lianyan: "At that time, if the emperor of Daliao had such a heroic figure as the Duke of the country, the country would not be decadent."
He Lianyan said: "This is all God's will."
"Will God destroy Liao?" He Lianrong said: "With Jiangzhou here, Bei Liao still has some hope."
"Now, it depends on God's will." He Lianyan's eyes were complicated, "Do you want Daliao to be destroyed?"
He Lianrong said: "Originally, the poor monk hoped to kill He Lianchun with his own hands, but he died. Let the poor monk kill a child for revenge, but the poor monk could not do it. Now the poor monk is thinking about the ancient people. As for Bei
Liao, whatever the duke wants to do, you can do whatever you want! Leave it to God!"
"God's will!"
Both of them looked at the sky silently.
What will God do?
More than ten riders rushed into the col.
"Jiangzhou Army is dispatched!"
The Jiangzhou army was dispatched.
The old commander He Liantong looked calm, "Let people go to Ningxing, let them guard, and spread the scouts widely. It is best to extend to Jiangzhou City."
"yes!"
"After our army, we must keep leaving people and horses to connect with the Ningxing scouts who have gone to Jiangzhou."
"yes!"
"The rest is up to God."
The army moves out.
The mighty cavalry rumbled away.
Infantry followed behind.
Chen De always felt that He Liantong was a little excited.
He rode up and asked, "Isn't your Majesty angry?"
"What's the use of being angry?" He Liantong said: "I want to persist, but I am not an emperor, so I can't help myself!"
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Chen De looked around nervously, "It's a taboo."
"After this battle, I will retire and go home to fish. I don't care about any taboos." Heliantong said with a smile: "Now that they are all out, the rest depends on God's will. God's will is in Daliao.
The Chang'an army attacked, and Yang Xuan retreated in embarrassment. If God's will is not in Daliao."
He looked ahead, "Then, my last battle in this life is not far away."
"Don't say you are so depressed." Chen De smiled bitterly.
"It's not that I'm depressed, I feel a little relieved now." He Liantong said: "I was complaining about the eldest princess before, but now I think about it, she is the only woman in charge of the government, and she has to take care of the entire Liao Dynasty. The powerful and the clan.
, officials, military generals, and powerful families all need her to balance. At this moment, it is no longer easy for her to be able to block those days for me. "
"Is it God's will?" Chen De looked ahead, and the soldiers were in high spirits, "The Tang Dynasty is so declining, it is not as bad as the Liao Dynasty. God's will must be in the Liao Dynasty."
"Your Majesty!" The envoy slowed down in front and waited for Helian to come forward and said: "Yang Dog is good at sneak attacks. Why doesn't your Majesty send scouts to both wings?"
"What's the use?" He Liantong pointed at the army, "I have an army of more than 100,000, but Yang Xuan's army can only lead 100,000. One hundred thousand, he can surround me with double-teams on both sides, how can he still surround my army?"
The messenger said: "If the army retreats."
This is a fool!
Chen De lowered his head, hiding the contempt in his eyes.
But the envoy patted his forehead and said, "The official is a little too excited. Once the army retreats, Yang Xuan will pursue it, and there will not be more than 50,000 people who can escape back to Jiangzhou."
This is quite right.
That night, the army camped. During the night, scouts from the Northern Xinjiang Army came to harass them.
"Discovered." The messenger was a little uneasy.
"That's right if you discover it." Chen De gave him a make-up lesson. "It's only if you don't discover it that there's a problem."
"What will happen to Yang Xuan?"
"His only option at this moment is to quickly cross Cangzhou and reach the front line of Yanzhou."
On the second day, the army continued to move forward.
"Your Majesty, envoy Ning Xing is here."
Ning Xing came as a chamberlain.
"The eldest princess has said that no matter what, she has no doubt about the king!"
He Liantong's eyes were filled with water. Chen De saw it from the side and felt sour in his heart.
It turns out that the old handsome man is not what he seems.
So peaceful.
He is angry!
Uneasy!
He wanted to find someone to scold, and wanted to go to Ningxing to scold the impatient ministers.
But he swallowed all his emotions.
He Liantong took a deep breath and said, "Tell the eldest princess that I will definitely live up to my trust."
The envoy said: "The eldest princess ordered the Eagle Guard to take action the day before yesterday and arrested dozens of people who were blocking the outside of the palace. The eldest princess ordered them to be severely punished."
"Thank you, eldest princess."
"The eldest princess said that there was nothing she could do, so she went to the Ancestral Temple to pray for the king."
Chen De suddenly felt as if a thousand kilograms of weight had fallen on his shoulders.
Not to mention Heliantong.
"I know." He Liantong said: "Tell the eldest princess that it goes without saying that there is a great victory. If something is not right and it is time to leave, don't hesitate. Or... that's all, why are you saying this!"
The envoy handed over his hand and said, "In this case, we wish your Majesty a great victory and immediate success!"
"Easy to say!"
The messenger smiled and said: "I hope Yang Xuan can run fast enough!"
Ahead, a horn sound suddenly sounded.
Woohoo!
The trumpet sound continued.
Continuously.
The envoy asked: "But the Northern Xinjiang Army in Yanzhou and Cangzhou?"
He found that everyone was looking ahead with solemn expressions, so he looked forward.
The sound of the trumpet continued.
Groups of scouts were galloping towards this side, looking at them as if they had seen a ghost.
Immediately afterwards, the rangers from the army were dispatched.
The scouts were shouting and waving from a distance. Their expressions could not be seen, but they could feel the anxious atmosphere.
"What's going on?" the messenger asked.
But no one answered him.
Puff puff puff!
In the distance, there was a huge shaking sound.
The messenger thought of the giant beast he had dreamed about in his nightmare.
An ancient behemoth that can make the earth tremble!
