Jiang Li came in from the outside, looked at Chai Yonghui and Yelu Hanyu, and looked hesitant. Chen Xiao asked: "Did something happen?" Seeing Yang Peng asking, Jiang Li did not dare to hide it anymore, clasped her fists and said:
"I just received news from Tianjing New City that the Goryeo naval forces are dispatched in full force. At the same time, nearly 100,000 infantry troops are coming towards me, Yanyun, from the sea!"
Everyone was shocked, Yelu Hanyu sneered and said: "What a coincidence!" Looking at Yang Peng, "It seems they have planned it for a long time!" Yang Peng nodded and said to Jiang Li: "Send the navy to all go to Tianjing.
Xincheng is ready to fight!" Jiang Li responded and ran down.
Yang Peng thought: "This time, not only the Goryeo army will be dispatched, but the Khitan army will also come in force! This battle will not be easy, but I can't leave this bed!"
Yelu Hanyu said: "Brother, you don't have to worry, I will handle it!" Yang Peng thought for a while and felt that Yelu Hanyu's strategy was not weaker than his own, and she was his wife, so it would be better for her to lead the army.
. Then he nodded and said to Yelu Hanyu: "Then I will leave the important task of guarding Yanyun to my little sister!" "Brother, don't worry, just take good care of your health!"
Soon after, all the civil and military personnel who stayed in Yanjing were summoned to Yang Peng's hospital bed to discuss countermeasures with Yang Peng. Yang Peng explained the general situation, and everyone couldn't help but feel the seriousness of the situation. Qian Letian frowned and said
"The Khitan army will definitely launch a massive attack at the same time!" Yang Peng said: "I have sent orders to Juyong Pass, Gubei Pavilion, Longshan and Yu Pass to be more vigilant and guard against death. In addition, I have ordered the navy to go to Tianjing New City to face the Korean army.
!”
Zuo Mou said worriedly: "All the navy troops are heading to Tianjing New City, I'm afraid the Khitan army will take the opportunity to cross the sea to attack!" Yelu Hanyu said: "Don't worry about this for the time being. We haven't received any reports of the Khitan army gathering yet, so
It will take some time for them to gather ships and troops to launch a sea-crossing operation! We can use this time to defeat the Koreans first, and then turn around to deal with the Khitans! The worst case scenario at that time is that the Liao army has already crossed the sea and landed. That way
If so, we will use the navy to cut off their sea lanes, and at the same time hold on to the key points, and wait until the enemy is out of food before launching a counterattack, maybe we can completely annihilate the Khitan army that landed!"
Everyone nodded, and Yelu Hanyu said: "But before that, preparations must be made to evacuate the people and supplies to a safe place. Otherwise, once the enemy troops land, it will be too late to do this! Hey!
, If the Liao army really lands, I'm afraid countless grain fields and towns will be reduced to ruins!" Everyone couldn't help but feel very depressed, Yang Jing shouted: "Then don't let the Khitan dogs land!"
Everyone smiled. Qian Letian said: "I'm afraid this will not be easy! To really prevent the Khitans from landing, we must defeat the Korean Navy! But this Korean Navy is not simple. Under the careful construction of three generations of Korean kings,
The Goryeo navy is probably the most powerful navy in the world! It has a strength of 100,000, and its various warships are twice that of the previous Liao navy. Among them is a tortoise-shell warship, which looks like a dragon turtle and is very slow.
, but it is extremely strong. It is said that ordinary stone cannons cannot cause much damage to it, and it is also difficult to fight against it!"
"This kind of turtle-shell ship is also very powerful. It is equipped with a steel ram at the front. It can be said to be devastating when it hits other ships! In addition, it is also equipped with a weapon that is said to be similar to the Central Plains fierce fire oil tank, which can burn enemy ships at close range! In short, this
The tortoise-shell ship is very powerful, and it is not easy to defeat it! The Goryeo navy is not only armed to the teeth, but the navy officers and soldiers are trained by fishermen who are skilled in water. They are really comfortable fighting in the water, which is definitely not the case before.
The navy of Liao is comparable!"
Yang Jing said angrily: "You stinky scholar, do you want to say that our navy cannot defeat the Korean navy?" Qian Letian smiled and said, "I am just discussing the matter and telling everyone everything I know."
Yang Peng said: "The Goryeo navy is indeed very powerful, so we have to prepare for the worst in this battle. The worst case scenario is that our navy fails to defeat the Goryeo navy, causing the Goryeo army and the Liao army to be defeated by our Yan army."
We have landed in the hinterland of Yun! Then we can only rely on the army to protect Yanyun and defeat the enemy!" He glanced at Yelu Hanyu and said, "In order to reduce losses as much as possible, we must evacuate the people and supplies to a safe place in advance!"
He turned to Zuo Mou and said: "Zuo Mou, I leave it to you to organize the retreat! Evacuate all the people and supplies to Yanjing. Don't take action for the time being. Make preparations and wait for my order!"
yes!"
Yang Peng looked at Qian Letian, "You are still responsible for the preparation and transfer of logistics supplies!" "Yes!" Zuo Mou clasped his fists in agreement, and then suggested: "Lord, we should transfer some troops back from Hebei and Shandong, otherwise, Yan
The garrison in Yunnan is really too thin! With three legions and 200,000 troops, I'm afraid it will be difficult to cope with the worst situation!"
Yang Peng thought and nodded, "Let's do this. We will mobilize 100,000 directly-affiliated legions from Yingtian Mansion, Guangji Army, and Puzhou to return reinforcements." Yang Peng's direct-affiliated legions have a total strength of 200,000, of which only 5,000 formation-breaking cavalry remain.
In Yanjing, the rest of the army is outside. Among them, 30,000 soldiers and horses are at Chengtian Army Stronghold, and the remaining nearly 170,000 soldiers and horses are deployed in Yingtian Mansion, Guangji Army and Puzhou line. In this area, except
In addition to the direct-affiliated legion guards, there are 60,000 soldiers of the Fourth Army. After the 100,000 direct-affiliated legion soldiers are withdrawn, there are only 130,000 soldiers and horses left in this area, which is a bit thin.
"In addition, the Fifth Army will be transferred back. In this case, Yanyun will have 360,000 ground troops, which should be able to cope with the most critical situation!" The Fifth Army and the Sixth Army were previously led by Duan Zhixian and went south to attack the Daimyo.
Mansion, and then captured Kaide Mansion, which is Puyang. Now the 120,000 soldiers and horses of the two legions are mainly guarding the fork of the Yellow River where Puyang is located. If the fifth legion is transferred, there will only be 60,000 soldiers and horses guarding there.
Now, attack is impossible, only defense.
Zuo Mou frowned and said: "This will put greater pressure on the south! If the Liao army in the Central Plains takes the opportunity to launch a large-scale attack, I'm afraid..." Yang Peng said resolutely: "I believe they will be able to hold on!" Firmly
The words made everyone present feel unlimited confidence out of thin air. Yang Peng said to Chai Yonghui: "Little sister, help me write a letter." Chai Yonghui responded, immediately walked behind the desk and sat down, spreading out the paper
, Jiang Li polished the ink. When she was ready, Chai Yonghui picked up the brush and looked at Yang Peng; "What do you want to write, brother?" Yang Peng said, "I want you to write!" After a pause.
"Han Bing, the war in the north has started again, and the entire Goryeo navy is dispatched to destroy our Yanyun navy. I am confident of defeating the enemy, but I have to make the worst plan and fight the enemy on land. Therefore, I will
Mobilize the Fifth Army Corps and 100,000 directly affiliated army officers to return to defend Yanyun. As a result, the army in the south will appear weak. A heavy responsibility is entrusted to you. I hope you will be careful not to give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of it! If the situation is serious,
If it is difficult to maintain, you can give up the entire Shandong. It is up to you to make the decision without asking me for instructions!"
After Yang Peng finished reading, Chai Yonghui had already finished writing. He got up and returned to the bedside and looked at Yang Peng. Yang Peng nodded, "Okay, send it out immediately!" Jiang Li came up immediately and took the letter. Yang Peng ordered:
"At the same time, I have to send a message to Duan Zhixian, Cheng Shijie and others, telling them that Han Bing's orders must be strictly implemented. Han Bing's orders are my orders, and those who violate them will be punished by military law!" Jiang Li responded and ran down.
A secret guard rushed in and handed over a letter, "Urgent military information from General Liu Zhiliang!" Yang Peng said to Yelu Hanyu, "Take a look at it for me." Yelu Hanyu quickly took the letter and said,
He opened it, took out the letter, read it over, and frowned. He turned around and said to Yang Peng: "The Liao Kingdom has Ye Qi Guanyin as its commander-in-chief, and an army of 500,000 is gathering in Runzhou."
Although everyone had expected it, they were still surprised when they heard the news. Chai Yonghui frowned and said: "As soon as something happened to the eldest brother, the Liao Kingdom and Gao Li took action together. It was obviously planned long ago!" Yang Jing said in an evil voice.
: "Damn it! I must cut off the heads of these frustrated birds to vent my anger on my brother!"
Yang Peng frowned and said: "I'm worried about the safety of Juehua Island! The first thing they want to attack must be Juehua Island!" Currently, there are 5,000 soldiers of the Second Army guarding Juehua Island. The leading general is Xiao Chen. He originally
He was an officer of the Liao Kingdom. He fled into Yanyun with Yang Peng and others, and then joined the Yanyun Army. Later, he was promoted to the infantry commander of the left army of the Second Army. Another secret guard rushed in, anxiously
Sheng reported: "Master, there are suddenly a lot of rumors outside, saying, saying,..."
Yang Peng smiled and said, "Does that mean I'm dead?"
"Yes." The girls were furious, and Chai Yonghui said angrily: "Who is so hateful?" Yang Peng said with a smile: "It must be the spies of Goryeo and Liao! They probably thought I had been killed, so they spread rumors.
You want to create chaos!" Yelu Hanyu said: "I will deal with it immediately!" and then left.
Not long after, Yelu Hanyu led a dozen secret guards and flying phoenix female guards to the downtown area of Yanjing. The people had heard rumors before that King Yan was dead, and they were all suspicious and frightened. Now,
Seeing Madam Yan Wang coming, they all gathered around her. An old man raised his voice and said, "Madam, may I ask if His Highness King Yan is okay?" Others also asked, looking very worried.
Yelu Hanyu raised his voice and said: "Don't listen to the rumors, brother, he is doing well! Those who spread this rumor just want us, Yanyun, to be in chaos!" When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, but they were still uneasy in their hearts, and someone raised their voice.
He said: "Since King Yan is well, can we pay homage to King Yan?" The people agreed one after another, eager to see King Yan.
Yelu Hanyu said: "Although the eldest brother is fine, he was stabbed by an assassin. He is recovering from his injuries at the moment and cannot come out!" Someone immediately shouted: "Who believes this! Could it be that King Yan is dead and you are not mourning him secretly!"
The people all became commotion.
Yelu Hanyu saw a sneaky young man hiding behind the crowd. He seemed to be the one who had spoken just now. He immediately pointed a riding crop at him and shouted: "Catch that spy!" Two secret guards immediately ran over.
Seeing that something was wrong, the man quickly turned around and ran away, but was knocked to the ground by two young people. Yinsha arrived, dragged him up, and escorted him to Yelutri.
Yelu Hanyu shouted and asked: "Are you a Khitan or a Korean?" The young man snorted, "I am a Han! It's obvious that you have ulterior motives, but you actually used me to divert your attention!" Then he shouted to the people:
"King Yan is dead, I saw it with my own eyes! Otherwise, why didn't King Yan come out?" The people were full of doubts and their hearts were turbulent.
"Don't listen to this spy! He clearly wants to mess with me, Yan Yun! Come on, search me!" When the young man heard that he was going to be searched, his face changed, and he struggled and shouted loudly: "It's obvious that you want to usurp power.
You killed King Yan, but you came to frame me!" These words made the people even more uneasy.
The secret guard searched his body and found some items used by the Koreans. The young man looked very frightened. The sharp-eyed people saw those items that only the Koreans had, and they were furious and shouted: "
This bastard is a spy of Goryeo! Beat him to death!" A large group of people immediately shouted and rushed forward, knocking the young man to the ground, punching and kicking him. After Yinsha finally dispersed the crowd, that Goryeo
The man has been beaten completely out of shape and is dying. He has more air coming out and less air coming in.
Yelu Hanyu frowned and quickly ordered the secret guards to escort him down. When he walked out of the crowd, many people still cursed and beat him. When he walked out of the crowd, he received countless punches and kicks, and he saw that he was already dead.
An old man walked up to Yelu Hanyu's horse, clasped his fists and begged: "Madam, if King Yan is really fine, please let us see King Yan, so that we, the little bosses, can feel at ease!"
They all agreed.
Yelu Hanyu frowned and said: "As I said just now, King Yan was assassinated by Goryeo assassins last night and was injured. He is currently recovering from his injuries and it is really inconvenient to come out."
The people were still very suspicious. "The King of Yan is here!" Suddenly someone shouted in a very surprised tone. Everyone hurriedly followed the call and saw an open carriage descending surrounded by secret guards and Feifeng female guards.
The person sitting in the carriage was none other than Yang Peng, King of Yan. Thousands of people were surprised and immediately rushed forward, shouting "King Yan" while trying to get closer to the carriage. The secret guards tried their best to block the overly enthusiastic people.
, Feifeng Guards are guarding the inner circle.
I don’t know who took the lead in kowtowing down. Thousands of people knelt down and kowtowed: "Greetings to His Highness King Yan...!" For a moment, only a surge of heads was seen, and a huge voice echoed over Yanjing. Yelu Hanyu
I immediately stood outside the crowd and looked at the scene in front of me, feeling sincerely happy for my elder brother!
Yang Peng raised his voice and said: "No need to be polite, everyone, please get up!" The people stood up one after another. Yang Peng said with a smile: "I'm really sorry for making everyone worried!" The old man who just talked to Yelu Hanyu said with incomparable
He said loudly and excitedly: "Your Highness King Yan, I am relieved to see that you are okay!" Yang Peng smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, old man, for caring about me. I'm okay! I just asked the Koreans to take a bite!" Immediately someone came.
He cursed angrily: "The damn Koreans dare to come and assassinate King Yan. We must not spare them!" Everyone agreed, and angry shouts and curses kept coming.
Yang Peng said loudly: "I am very touched by everyone's kindness, but please listen to me and don't embarrass those Korean businessmen who come to Yanyun to do serious business!" The people looked at each other, looking very reluctant. It was still the same person just now.
The old man raised his voice and said: "Since His Highness King Yan has a destiny, we will act according to His Highness King Yan's orders!" Everyone agreed.
Yang Peng clasped his fists and said, "Thank you all so much!" The people were flattered and said one after another, "Following King Yan's orders is a matter of course, how dare you use this word of thanks!" Yelu Hanyu rode over and raised his voice.
He said, "You should feel relieved now that you have seen my eldest brother! Let's all disperse now!" The people bowed to Yang Peng one after another, but then dispersed.
Yelu Hanyu came to Yang Peng, rolled his eyes at Yang Peng, and said angrily: "Old man Wang told you not to move, have you forgotten?" Yang Peng chuckled, "There is nothing we can do about it! Besides, I
Everyone carried us out, and we rode a carriage all the way here, and we didn’t use any hands or feet, so it’s okay!” Yelu Hanyu snorted, “Okay, stop talking nonsense and go back quickly!” So the team fought on the spot.
Then he turned around and went back to the left-behind residence.
Yelu Hanyu looked gloomy along the way. Yang Peng thought she was angry, so he smiled and said: "Okay, I was wrong. I will never do it again next time, so don't be angry!" The guards snickered.
Yelu Hanyu sighed, "I'm not thinking about what happened just now, I'm thinking that I'm about to leave my eldest brother, and I feel very uncomfortable!" Yang Peng felt very unhappy when he thought that she was about to go to the front line in his place.
Feeling good, he forced a smile and said: "There is nothing uncomfortable. I believe I will be back soon!"
Yelu Hanyu said angrily: "Of course you are not uncomfortable. In addition to me, you also have sister Yonghui, and the two little goblins Yang Tong and Zhao Jinxi!" Yang Peng said, "You are unique in the heart of the elder brother.
, No one can replace you! You dare to doubt your elder brother's feelings for you, which really makes your elder brother sad!" Yelu Hanyu was very happy and said softly: "Okay, okay, I was wrong! Otherwise,
How about you punish me tonight, brother?" Yelu Hanyu's eyes showed a strange look.
Yang Peng was very moved when he saw Yelu Hanyu's charming appearance, and then rolled his eyes and said angrily: "How can I move now!" Yelu Hanyu smiled charmingly, "You don't have to move, I will.
That's good!" Yang Peng's eyes widened and he couldn't help but swallowed. Yelu Hanyu chuckled and rolled his eyes at Yang Peng, "That's silly!" Then he frowned and said, "I don't know if I can do that.
, I have to ask Old Man Wang first!" Then he felt something was wrong, "Well, how about this, when I come back, we will stay alone for three days and three nights, and you will reward me!" Yang Peng smiled.
Nodding, "Okay! It's all up to you!" Yelu Hanyu was very excited, and looking at her, she seemed a little impatient!
Early the next morning, Yelu Hanyu reluctantly said goodbye to Yang Peng, and led a group of Feifeng Guards and Secret Guards to leave Yanjing for Tianjing New City. The Koryo and Liao armies were about to invade Yanyun in a large scale.
The news spread like wildfire throughout Yanyun, and with the spread of the news by thoughtful people, people everywhere were panicked. Fortunately, the local governments stepped forward to stabilize people's hearts as soon as possible, so no major problems occurred.
Not long after, news came from the direction of Juehua Island. Jehovah Guanyin attacked Juehua Island with 30,000 soldiers and horses. The battle was extremely fierce. At the same time, after discussing with Liu Zhiliang, the Zhanjin Kingdom led 2,000 Xuanjia troops.
Repeatedly, they left Yuguan in an attempt to attack the logistics and supplies of the Khitan army. However, Zhanjin Kingdom and Liu Zhiliang did not know at this moment that Ye Qi Guanyin had already laid a dragnet against the Xuanjia Army of Zhanjin Kingdom and was waiting for them.
Woolen cloth.
The Kingdom of Zhan Jin led two thousand Xuanjia troops to march day and night, heading all the way to Hailongbao, a dozen miles northeast of Runzhou. According to intelligence, more than a million loads of grain and grass for the Liao Kingdom's 500,000-strong army were all stationed there.
The purpose of Jin's trip was to destroy the Khitan army's logistical supplies and force the Khitan army to delay the attack.
The night was very dark that day, with no light from the stars and moon, and the sound of the wind was like the howling of ghosts and wolves. The Kingdom of Zhanjin led two thousand Xuanjia troops to a dozen miles north of Runzhou City. A huge black shadow like a mountain in the distance was the Khitan army.
Hailongbao where food and grass are stored.
The Kingdom of Zhanjin ordered his soldiers and horses to slowly approach Hailongbao, and at the same time ordered a team of elites to climb up the wall, quietly get rid of the sentries above and below the gate of Hailongbao, and then opened the city gate.
Outside the city, Zhan Jinguo saw the light of a torch dancing rapidly inside the city gate in front, and immediately led his Xuanjia army to rush forward. Two thousand Xuanjia warriors poured into the city gate like a tide.
Kill... Suddenly there was a sound of killing, and countless torches appeared around, illuminating the originally dark Sea Dragon Castle as if it were daylight. Under the firelight, only shadows could be seen, as if there were infinite people and horses. The Kingdom of Zhanjin discovered that it had been ambushed.
, immediately led his army to break through the city gate. At this moment, arrows rained down from all sides, and the Xuanjia troops dismounted their horses one after another. The people in front shouted horses, and saw countless Jin army infantry and cavalry pouring in from the gate and blocking them.
The retreat route of the Xuanjia Army.
However, the Xuanjia Army did not stop. They rushed forward and crashed into the enemy group. It was a fierce battle! The Kingdom of Zhanjin took the lead and attacked five powerful generals of the Jin Army.
The soldiers fought and the cavalrymen fell on their backs, killing the Khitan infantry and their corpses flew away with blood. The Khitan army could not resist and fled in all directions.
When the Khitan troops in the city saw this, they were all surprised and gathered around them one after another. Immediately, three hundred mysterious armored warriors came out and divided into three groups, turning around and crashing into the wave of enemy troops. They saw the three hundred mysterious armored warriors riding on them.
The endless tide of enemy troops fought bloody battles, killing countless enemies one after another, but he himself died on the battlefield one by one! A soldier of the Xuanjia Army bravely waved his horizontal sword in the enemy tide and spear forest, killing several enemy soldiers in a row, and then suddenly
A group of spearmen rushed up from the side, and the spears were stabbed together, knocking his horse to the ground, and he fell off the horse. He jumped up and killed with a sword. He saw blood flying, roaring like a tiger, and three Khitan soldiers came again.
He was chopped down to the ground. At this time, countless spears came from all directions and pierced his body!
Thanks to the three hundred mysterious armored warriors who fought to the death to buy time for Zhan Jin Kingdom and others, they were able to retake the city gate, open the city gate, and rush out of the city.
The Xuanjia warriors who were blocking the enemy saw that the brigade had successfully withdrawn, so they prepared to escape. But at this moment, a group of Khitan warrior warriors rushed from the gallop by the wall to the city gate and seized the gate again.
, and closed the city gate. Now the Xuanjia Army outside the city could not enter the city, while the Xuanjia Army inside the city was in a desperate situation.
The endless Jin Army infantry and cavalry surrounded them, and the lonely figure of the black armored cavalry fought until the last moment.
Zhan Jinguo was extremely excited and turned around to seize the city gate to rescue his comrades. A captain grabbed his horse's rein tightly and said urgently: "General, we can't let our brothers sacrifice in vain. Let's go quickly!"
He said angrily: "Our brothers live and die together! We must not leave them behind! If you are willing to go back with me, follow me!" Then he broke away from the captain and galloped towards Hailong Fort. All the Xuanjia troops followed without hesitation.
Go up.
The Zhanjin Kingdom and others suddenly turned back, and more than a hundred Xuanjia troops climbed up the wall and launched a surprise attack on the Khitan army above and below the city gate. The Khitan army did not expect that the Zhanliao Kingdom and the others actually dared to come back, and were caught off guard.
The army captured the city gate again.
The city gate opened, and the Kingdom of Zhanjin took the lead and led the main force of the Xuanjia Army to rush into the city gate, violently crashing into the endless wave of enemy troops! The Khitan army in the city did not expect that the Xuanjia Army would go and come back, and were beaten
Caught off guard, a commotion and chaos broke out. Yan Yun's warrior cavalry was seen rushing forward like a tiger rushing into a herd of sheep. The horse's horizontal sword set off a rain of blood in the sky. The Khitan army soldiers fled in panic. The Khitan army seemed to be ebbing.
They retreated to both sides like a tide. The main force of the Xuanjia Army rescued dozens of Xuanjia Army who were trapped in the siege and were covered in blood, and then turned around and broke out.
Xiao Tiehegan, the general of the Khitan army, was very angry when he saw this scene and quickly sent his troops to pursue him.
The two sides ran for more than ten miles one after another. Zhan Jinguo asked his warriors to continue running, but he turned his horse's head and charged towards tens of thousands of Khitan army's warriors!
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
