The general was shocked. It is not so easy to make the enemy generals surrender. Otherwise, why would the siege battle be so difficult? After being surprised, he felt a little cold. This is the emperor they are protecting, and this is the emperor whom the soldiers are protecting with their blood.
The emperor!
Gao Anagong saw that the general was speechless for a long time, so he said to Gao Wei:
"Your Majesty, it's not impossible to get them to surrender, but you have to find an opportunity. You can't rush."
Gao Wei put a hand on his face and said irritably:
"Hurry up and capture Pingyang so we can go back!"
Why go back? Is there any need to say that? The general felt cold again.
On the other hand, Yu Wenyong returned to Chang'an and knew that the situation in Pingyang was not good, so he gathered troops and horses, baggage and equipment, and when the recruitment was almost complete, he rushed to Pingyang. Although he did not dare to delay for a minute, more than a month passed.
After fighting for more than a month, not only the Zhou soldiers in Pingyang City were exhausted, but the Qi soldiers outside the city were also very tired. The 80,000 soldiers and horses led by Yuwen Yong, although they traveled a long distance, could
Still more energetic than them.
The soldiers on the city wall were still holding on with difficulty. Suddenly, a soldier at the west gate of Pingyang City said:
"Why do I feel that something is wrong behind the Qi army?"
A soldier beside him hid behind the crenel and said to him:
"You don't think they are in civil unrest, do you?"
General Zhou, who was commanding the battle at the west gate, looked back in confusion, because there were still straw smoke rising up from time to time. He couldn't see it clearly at once. When he saw it clearly, he felt excited, but he rubbed his eyes and looked carefully.
Finally, he shouted in surprise:
"Your Majesty is here! Your Majesty is here!"
The soldiers of Ximen were in a state of excitement, and even the soldiers of Kunyu Kingdom were in a state of excitement.
Soon, the good news spread throughout Pingyang City.
Liang Shiyan excitedly said to Ning Yu and Xun:
"Now we don't have to huddle here anymore, we can go out of the city to fight!"
Ning Feng said calmly:
"Now His Majesty's troops have only reached outside the west gate. There are still Qi troops outside the four city gates. If we go out to fight in the city, if the Qi army takes this opportunity to capture the city, our persistence for more than a month will be in vain.
It’s all in vain.”
Liang Shiyan was startled, patted his forehead and said:
"Yes, yes, you see me lose my composure when I get excited."
Hyun was so excited that her voice trembled and she said:
"General Liang's mood is understandable. In fact, I also want to go out to fight and join His Majesty as soon as possible. However, King Yi is right. The more we get to the end, the less we can relax."
Having said that, Hyun was so excited that she rubbed her hands and walked back and forth in the room. She was even more excited than Liang Shiyan.
After walking around for a few times, he said to the soldier in charge of delivering orders from Kunyu Kingdom:
"Let me tell the brothers at the city gates that your Majesty is here and fight these brats outside the city! Finish it early and let's go to bed early!"
The soldier responded happily and ran away happily to deliver the order.
At this time, the Qi army was in a pincer attack and a tired army. Seeing the arrival of reinforcements from the Zhou Dynasty, they lost psychologically and were quickly repulsed. The people inside and outside the city finally reunited. Yuwen Yong
Looking at the dilapidated city walls of Pingyang City, with black smoke billowing everywhere, whether on the wall or under the wall, I was very moved. I grabbed Liang Shiyan but couldn't say a word.
Let's not celebrate the victory or anything else. The soldiers guarding the city were finally able to have a good sleep peacefully. Yu Wenyong didn't call them. They slept for almost two days before they saw people coming out one after another.
In the past two days, Yu Wenyong was not idle, issuing announcements to calm the people and issuing some new policies to benefit the people. The people of Pingyang were also very happy. They finally left the dark rule of Qi State, the streets and markets reopened, and the city gradually recovered.
The excitement of the past.
The next night, a small celebration banquet was held. The soldiers who guarded the city persisted for more than a month, and finally saw good results. They had a good time. Yu Wenyong was also extremely grateful to everyone in the Kunyu Kingdom. If it weren't for them,
Help, this battle will be more difficult.
Because the march would continue after dawn, I didn't drink any alcohol at night. After the excitement, I prepared for the next day's trip.
After the Zhou army defended Pingyang, it was time for the Zhou army to besiege Jinyang (today's southwest of Taiyuan, Shanxi). However, due to military mistakes, the Zhou army suffered heavy losses. Such a huge loss had no impact on Yuwen.
Yong Lai couldn't hold on any longer, so he thought of quitting.
However, the current external environment of Dazhou is very favorable to Dazhou, and everyone is attacking here. If he retreats, he may not have such an opportunity next time. Yu Wenxin comforted him:
"Survive in the midst of death, win in the midst of defeat."
Yu Wenyong raised his eyes and looked at Yu Wenxin. With these people supporting him, Yu Wenyong cheered up again.
While Yu Wenyong and the others were fighting, Kun Yuguo and his party were basking in the sun in the camp, not only in the sun but also in the sun.
Yan Xiaomao said somewhat boredly:
"Coming here, I feel like I'm in a dark place."
Wu Tiedan shook his head:
"What's dark about you?" He stretched out his arms and rolled up his sleeves, comparing himself to Yan Xiaomao, "Look, you're still not as dark as me."
Yan Xiaomao glared at him:
"You are naturally dark! Can you compare with me? I am a real tan!"
At this time Lai Houhou and Hou Mo Chen Chong came over.
Lai Hou looked at the military tent behind the two of them:
"Master Zhuo fell asleep again? Since coming here, Master Zhuo has been possessed by pigs."
Ding Wangcai sat up from the straw mat and poured a glass of water for the two of them:
"How is the situation with the attack on Pingyang?"
Hou Mo and Chen Chong drank the water in one breath, wiped the water stains on his mouth and said:
"The situation is not good, the Zhou army suffered heavy losses," he looked around and whispered, "Yu Wenyong even wanted to retreat, but Yu Wenxin dissuaded him."
Suddenly, they heard a voice coming from the military tent behind them. Everyone looked to see Hyun stretching out and walking out. They quickly moved to make a space for her on the straw mat.
After sitting down, Hyun rubbed his eyes and said sleepily:
"Finally it's my turn as a pig-possessed general to take action."
Lai Hou smiled coquettishly.
When the Zhou army took action again the next day, they suddenly saw that the troops of Kunyu State, which had been basking in the sun all the way, had assembled and were waiting neatly to set off.
After Yu Wenyong got the news, he didn't even wear half of his armor. He hurried out and took a look. He saw that the troops of Kun Yu Kingdom were acting carelessly along the way. They were full of energy and even the horses had bright eyes. They were completely different from before. Yu Wenyong looked at them.
I am extremely envious.
Walking up to Ning Yan and Hyun who were waiting under the horse:
"Will King Yi and General Zhuo go with us now?"
Ning Fang saluted Yu Wenyong and said:
"We have wandered from Pingyang to here, and it's time to do something for His Majesty."
Now is a difficult time. Yu Wenyong is extremely happy to receive help from Kunyu Kingdom. The confidence that had dissipated before has gathered again.
When the soldiers in Jinyang City saw Da Zhou coming again, one general said angrily:
