"Yang Yue has come to Youzhou?"

When Yelu Puhua heard this, his face was shocked and slightly uneasy.

Yang Yue is not good at stubble, where he appears, where is restless.

Recently, he is planning to seize the Bohai Sea, expand the Khitan territory in the northeast, increase the territory, the people, and thus make up for the losses of the tribe on the western front.

Before he led the troops to the battle, Yang Yue didn't know it, and he came to Youzhou unconsciously.

This is clearly deliberately aimed at him.

Yelucheng held his father's arm and wrist, and said with difficulty: "Father, Yang Yue came to Youzhou, there are only more than 100 pro-soldiers around him, if my father suddenly leads the army to Youzhou City, Yang Yue can be trapped and killed in Youzhou.

If the city can be broken and Yang Yue captured, it will cause a catastrophe for Datang."

Yelu Puhua learned that Yang Yue had come to Youzhou, and first wanted to surprise and surround Youzhou City and capture Yang Yue alive.

After a little contemplation, he snuffed out his thoughts.

Previously, when he was in Guanneidao, Agus also hoped to capture Yang Yue and cause a catastrophe to the Tang Dynasty, but unfortunately, he was defeated again and again, and finally had to negotiate peace with Yang Yue.

Now, Yelucheng's proposal to surround Youzhou seems to be very safe, but in fact it is very dangerous, God knows what kind of conspiracy Yang Yue has.

Staring at Yelu Cheng's injuries, Yelu Puhua asked, "Have you met Yang Yue?"

"Father, the child didn't just meet Yang Yue, the child was captured by him, and even Umur was killed, and the secret agent who infiltrated Luoyang was wiped out." Speaking of Yang Yue, recalling that he was tortured by Yang Yue in Luoyang City, he was like an ant and secretly survived, Yelucheng gritted his teeth with hatred, and only hoped to eradicate Yang Yue!

Today, he fled back in a hurry, hoping to lead the army, kill Youzhou City, and capture Yang Yue to vent his hatred.

"Cheng'er, the matter of mobilizing wolf cavalry to surround Youzhou needs to be considered in the long run, you can recuperate in the military camp for the time being, and wait for news!" Yelupu Hua slapped Yelucheng's shoulder with a broad palm, and comforted him when he heard it.

A few years ago, in the battle of Youzhou, Yang Yue destroyed the Khitan Zuoxian King, so that the Khitan vitality in Monan was greatly damaged, and now he wants to annex the Bohai Sea and restore the Khitan power in the eastern part of the grassland.

As for sending troops to surround Youzhou, it is not feasible.

"Father, there are only Luo Shishang's Flying Tiger Army in Hebei Province, more than 50,000, and there are 100,000 tribal wolf riders. Yelu Cheng's reason, which was blinded by hatred, just wanted to eradicate Yang Yue and take revenge.

"Hugh is going to talk nonsense."

Yelupuhua's face was gloomy, and his eyes glared at Yelucheng, secretly angry.

If he was afraid of Yang Yue, how could he lead troops to Monan and garrison the eastern part of the grassland according to Yeluyao's order?

At this time, the generals who followed Yelu Puhua thought back and forth about Yelucheng's words.

Yang Yue is fierce, and the northern tribes are afraid of him, but Yang Yue came to Youzhou, which may indeed be a good opportunity for the Khitan.

"Lord Wang, Yang Yue personally came to Youzhou, there was another war in the west of the Tang Dynasty, the last general suggested to inform the Khan King of this matter, and secretly leak the news to the Turks, if Agus sent the Turkic iron cavalry south, we immediately led troops to surround Youzhou, the Tang River West Road, Hedong Road, Hebei Road three battles, the Tang Army is not on guard, it will definitely not be able to dispatch more elites, this time may be able to capture Yang Yue."

At this moment, the general who suggested to Yelu Puhua was the number one general under his account, Attila, who had been severely injured by Yang Yue.

At the beginning, Yang Yue openly humiliated Princess Chunxi, even if the princess came to marry Yang Yue in exchange for the peace between the Khitan and the Tang Dynasty, but he was defeated that year, and he never forgot it.

It was a shame for him that the princess married into a foreign land.

For years, he never dared to forget.

Today, Yang Yue came to Youzhou again, and the distance between the two sides is hundreds of miles, which is a good opportunity to eradicate Yang Yue and take revenge.

"Lord Wang, General Attila is reasonable, the right valley Li Wang can't eradicate Yang Yue, we can use the hands of others to eradicate Yang Yue!" Movol gritted his teeth.

If you say who hates Yang Yue the most in the Khitan, in addition to the Khitan princes Yelu Jinshan and Yelu Cheng, the third person is Movol.

In that year, in the battle of Wugu City, Yelu Jinshan and Yelu Chunxi were both captured by Yang Yue, and he led the wolf cavalry to lose his troops, and finally ended up fleeing in a hurry.

forced the Khitan to spend countless money and grain to redeem Yelu Jinshan, and Princess Chunxi was reduced to Yang Yue's concubine.

For several years, he endured humiliation and waited for the day of revenge.

Yelucheng looked at the two powerful generals of the Liwang Department in the right valley and supported his proposal, and said in a loud voice: "Father, the child should send a letter to the Khan King as soon as possible, suggesting that the Khan King reveal Yang Yue's whereabouts and urge Agus to send troops south."

The tribal tiger general and Wang Ziquan suggested that they lead an army to surround Youzhou City, which made Yelu Puhua hesitate.

The Tang Dynasty fought with Longyou, Tuyuhun and Tubo in the west, and the dust had not yet settled, and he wanted to seize the Bohai Sea, which was only a local, small-scale campaign.

If the Turks are urged to go south, invade the Datang Guannei Road, Hedong Road, and the Khitan wolf cavalry storms Youzhou, the agreement between the Tang Dynasty and the Khitan can be torn up by the Khitan himself.

The First World War hit the Tang Dynasty hard, and it rose rapidly in the north, and this battle was of great significance.

The Tang Dynasty has not been hit hard, so that Yang Yue has been breathing, and there is a chance for the salted fish to turn over, and this battle will be a disaster for the Khitan.

A little carelessly, the Tang Dynasty counterattacked in adversity, and the Turks fell into the ground, and the consequences were unimaginable.

Yelupuhua's eyes swept over Attila, Movol and Yelucheng, and said cautiously: "This matter is very important, we must be cautious, and this king must return to the royal court to discuss with the king of Khan."

Datang, Khitan local battles, he can still be responsible, Khitan and Datang all-out war, he can't afford to be responsible.

"The prince's soldiers are very fast, Yang Yue is coming, he must be prepared, if he is deployed in Youzhou in advance, when the prince returns from the royal court, and then leads the army to attack Youzhou, I am afraid it will be even more difficult." Movol reminded coldly.

"Needless to say, this king will return to the royal court as soon as possible, General Attila, you personally lead the army, except for the Tang Dynasty youths who plundered out of the pass, it is strictly forbidden to lead the wolf to ride close to Youzhou." Yelu Puhua's expression was cold, and he commanded sharply.

"Yes!"

Attila was given the order, helpless, and did not dare to act rashly.

Yelu Puhua did not stay in the barracks for long, and immediately ordered his own military horses to go to the royal court.

At noon, in the tent of the commander of the Liwang of the Right Valley, only Attila, Movol, and Yelucheng were left.

Movol, Yelucheng was still unwilling and refused to miss the idea of leading the army to kill Youzhou, but unfortunately, Attila suggested that Yelupuhua lead the army to surround Youzhou, and when he personally led the troops, he obeyed Yelupuhua's military order.

No matter how Movol and Yelucheng lobbied and entangled, he still did not let go.

At dusk, a fast horse broke into the barracks, and the messenger jumped off his horse, and went to the king's tent impatiently, and learned from the mouth of the guard that Yelu Puhua had returned to the royal court, and that Attila was in charge of the army for the time being, and the spy hurried to Attila's tent.

Inside the tent, the oil lights were dim, and Attila stood in front of the map with her hands in her hands, staring with her eyes, occasionally muttering a few words to Movol and Yelucheng beside her.

All three of them had the idea of leading the army to Youzhou and capturing Yang Yue to vent their hatred.

Even if the military order is located, they can't lead the troops to Youzhou, it doesn't mean that the three of them can't make a plan to negotiate to seize Youzhou.

The secret agent hurriedly walked into the military tent, saw the three Attila, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "General Attila, the secret agent in Youzhou City has sent back the news, in the afternoon, tens of thousands of young and middle-aged people from various provinces in the south of the Tang Dynasty will prepare to leave the customs and go to Shencheng tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, Attila glanced at Yelucheng and Movol, and turned his head to ask the secret agent: "Is the news accurate, the people of the Tang Dynasty have been going to Shencheng recently, and there are no more than two thousand people for a long time, why did tens of thousands of people suddenly gather this time?"

If the news is reliable, plundering these tens of thousands of young and middle-aged people, resolving the lack of labor in the Liwang Department of Yougu, and the wolf riders near Youzhou will be able to return to the barracks, so as not to encounter the threat of the Tang army.

"General, the news is that the secret agents of Xiangzhou have spread to Youzhou, these tens of thousands of people have come from all directions in the Tang Dynasty, gathered in Xiangzhou, and the officials of various states along the way sent troops to protect them, and they arrived in Youzhou today, and the news is very reliable!" The messenger reports aloud.

"Attila, Yang Yue recommended a new addition, want to develop the Bohai region, the court issued a lot of decrees, very attractive to the people, when the king was in Luoyang, only half an hour, there have been hundreds of people to save their lives, want to go to the Bohai Sea to open up wasteland, but unfortunately Yang Yue destroyed.

At this moment, the secret agent sent back the news from Xiangzhou, and there must be no mistake in thinking about it!" When he was silent, he said to Attila.

He hated Yang Yue, but he admired Yang Yue's strategy very much, if there were people like Yang Yue in the Khitan tribes who had a long-term vision and could fight well, the Khitan could easily annihilate the Turks, and they could annex the Tang Dynasty without much effort.

Without waiting for Attila to speak, Yelucheng cleared his throat and continued: "Yang Yue is a traitorous male, very cunning, the spies sent back news from Xiangzhou, proving that these people are from all walks of life in the Tang Dynasty, but they converge in Youzhou, and there are wolf riders outside the pass, Yang Yue may guess the true and false tactics, and place elite soldiers among the migrating people, on the one hand, escort the people to Shencheng, and on the other hand, when the wolf riders plundered the people, they were unexpectedly covered up and killed, and the tribal wolf riders were severely damaged.

This time, if we want to plunder the people of the Tang Dynasty, we must have a cautious strategy, so as not to steal chickens and rice, and be calculated by Yang Yue."

"Well, the prince has a point!" Movol agreed with Yelucheng's suggestion and said loudly; "This time tens of thousands of people go out of the customs, the central government will definitely mix with the Flying Tiger Army, but if we succeed in plundering these tens of thousands of people, we can resolve the crisis of tribal labor, and even recruit these young and middle-aged people into the army, this battle only needs to win, not lose!"

The wolf cavalry outside the city of Youzhou is the elite cavalry of the Liwang Department in the right valley, if the people of the Tang Dynasty are plundered, they successfully return to the barracks, whether the wolf cavalry attacks the Bohai Sea in the future, or goes south to storm Youzhou, it is beneficial to the Khitan.

At this time, Attila raised his head, took a deep breath, and said to the secret agent: "Continue to monitor, wait for the news from Youzhou, and in addition, lead the spies in the army to investigate in detail on the road from Youzhou to Shencheng, beware of the Tang army ambushing in advance and secretly framing everyone!"

"Yes!" The agent bowed his head and turned to withdraw from the tent.

"Movol, prince, control the Tang people in Youzhou City who are preparing to go to Shen City, what is your best plan for this?" Attila asked, he was already moved, in addition to not being able to lead the army to storm Youzhou, he had long looked forward to leading the army to fight against the Tang army and wash away the shame of the year.

Hearing this, Movol and Yelucheng looked at each other and smiled, and in an instant, the three of them seemed to have the same thoughts.

Yelucheng almost didn't hesitate, his face was gloomy, and he sneered; "Yang Yue is despicable and insidious, tens of thousands of people are migrating at the same time, he must send the Flying Tiger Army to protect, this prince suggests, we directly give up plundering the people along the way, simply deploy in Shencheng in advance, Shencheng is the important town of the Tang Dynasty in the northeast, in recent years, commerce, workshops have risen, every year there are a lot of taxes sent to Chang'an, waiting for the people to go to Shencheng, after seizing the city, not only to get the people, but also to obtain tens of thousands of wealth in the city.

The key is that we are deployed near Shencheng, whether it is Yang Yue, Luo Shishang, or Duanmu Ye, we will definitely not expect it in advance."

The reason why the Liwang Department of the Right Valley did not recover its own strength to seize the Bohai Sea was naturally to peek into the wealth of the important towns in the Bohai Sea.

If it is successfully captured, a steady stream of money and food will be sent to the tribe.

Yelucheng once pretended to be a merchant to go to Shencheng, and witnessed the development of Shencheng, although it was not as prosperous as Luoyang, but as a newly built city in the northeast, it was a very rich place outside the Guan.

Attila, Movol was surprised and looked at Yelucheng in surprise, he didn't expect him to have such a bold plan.

If it was an ordinary city, they would definitely not hesitate to agree with Yelucheng's surprise attack. However, Shencheng is not an ordinary city.

This city is built by Fan Hengwen himself, the city is huge, there are dozens of large workshops, like a bright pearl in the black soil of the northeast.

Shencheng is prosperous and wealthy, and its influence in the Northeast has surpassed that of Dandong.

However, Fan Hengwen spent nearly two years mobilizing more than 100,000 people and captives, and the city walls were very strong and tall.

Moreover, there are 20,000 veterans of the military guards stationed in Shencheng all year round, and they are sent to peep at all parts of the Quartet.

Today, Yelucheng proposed to seize Shencheng and control the people who migrated to the Bohai Sea and the wealth in Shencheng, which was not a good idea.

"Prince, don't forget Duanmu Ye, the general manager of the Liaozhou march, this guy is cunning, when we led the army to Monan, the other party had already increased troops in Shencheng, besides, a surprise attack on Shencheng is bound to take the lead in capturing several nearby cities, so it is definitely not a good idea to deploy near Shencheng, seize the city, and control the people." Attila unceremoniously rejected Jerucheng's suggestion,

Shen Cheng is a piece of fatty meat, and they must be able to eat it, otherwise, it may be thankless. On the contrary, it will lose the army.

"Prince, General Attila is right, at present, we are only responsible for seizing the people of the Tang Dynasty and the matter of seizing Shencheng, and it should be up to the prince to decide!" Movol also did not agree with Yelucheng's suggestion, and turned to Attila and said, "General, the last general suggested setting up an ambush in the north of Pinglu and plundering the people!" Pinglu is the throat of Youzhou to Shencheng, even if Duanmu Ye sent troops to guard, but the Pinglu passage is long and narrow, Duanmu Ye can not be fortified everywhere, on the contrary, we are fortified everywhere, the troops are divided into three routes, the middle route army takes the lead in attacking, disrupting the people, taking advantage of the other party's escape, the east and west government soldiers attack to capture the fleeing people, they will definitely be able to attack them unprepared, and easily capture the people, even if the people are mixed with the Flying Tiger Army, there is nothing to be done about us."
