Chapter 869: It's time to die

Chapter 869 is going to be killed

With the return of the main force of Guanzhong to aid Chang'an, the battle situation in Guanzhong has also become clear, the Chai clan seized Fenglingdu with an astonishing advantage, and the army entered Guanzhong, and since then the area of Taihua Mountain south of Hezhong Mansion has become the sphere of influence of the Chai clan. After taking Taihua Mountain, Chai began to attack Huayin County, an important town in the north, and soon defeated the Huayin defenders outside the city and captured a stronghold near Taihua Mountain. Huayin County is a local talent, and there are even big families like the Yang family in the city. Considering the influence of the Yang family in Guanzhong, after entering Huayin County, although he knew the relationship between Yang Wanran and Zhao Yougong, Chai Keyan did not embarrass the Yang family. Chai Yonghao in order to sneak attack Chang'an, the sins made along the way are too heavy, and now the people of Guanzhong have been very resistant to the Chai army, if she Chai Keyan attacks the Yang family again, it will be even more difficult to seize Guanzhong. Chai Keyan not only did not embarrass the Yang family, but also went to the Yang compound with great fanfare and paid homage in person, which can be regarded as a move to attract people's hearts.

After taking Huayin County, the footsteps of the Chai army stopped temporarily, because they would face the pressure of Chang'an's elite soldiers and horses in the future. Although Ding **** was hit hard by Fenglingdu and his morale was low, this is tens of thousands of elite soldiers and horses, no matter what, the foundation is still there, and wanting to defeat Ding **** in one go is tantamount to wishful thinking. Now that he has entered Guanzhong, he only needs to slowly wear off the sharpness of Ding****, and after a long time, the entire Guanzhong will be dragged down. I didn't cross the Yellow River before, so I had to be anxious, but now the Yellow River natural danger has lost its meaning, and it is boring to be in a hurry.

For a while, the two sides were like an agreement, no one launched a new round of war, the Chai clan was busy absorbing the occupied territory, and Ding**** was also busy calming morale and building Chang'an. However, with the chaos of the Chai army in Guanzhong, it is inevitable that there will be a situation, and there are rebellions of varying degrees in both the Uighurs and Tibet, but now it is determined that **** has no time to take care of all parts of the Western Regions, so he can only watch the rebellion become more and more powerful. Guanzhong ushered in a temporary tranquility, while the distant Liaodong was full of solemnity. With Yelu Dashi and Hu Cheng joining forces, the Liaoyan forces have all been driven out of Zhenhai Mansion, and after losing their foundation, Murong Fu can only lead his remnants of his forces to pour into the area of Goryeo Xichuan, while Li Bao's naval army detoured from the sea, directly cutting off the idea of Liaoyan soldiers and horses continuing to move south. It can be said that the remnants of Murong Fu's forces have been besieged in the area of Xichuan, but what makes Yelu Dashi painful is that it is not realistic to solve Murong Fu in a short period of time, because there are nearly 300,000 Goryeo people near Xichuan, and if you want to rule this place, you have to consider the safety of these Goryeo people, which is also the promise made by His Royal Highness to Queen Kim Tae-hee.

It's been a few days, and Hu Cheng is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and Liaoyan's forces are right in front of him, but he can't be busy using the knife, which is really annoying. In the room, Hu Cheng sat in a chair, a short knife kept hitting the tabletop, "Dashuai, you have to think of a way as soon as possible, if Murong Fu is stationed in Xichuan with peace of mind, this breath will come sooner or later, and it will change later." ”

"General Hu, why don't I know it, but you also know the current situation, the Liaoyan thieves used the people of Goryeo as a threat, and Shi Wengong led his troops to attack twice, but they were forced to retreat. If His Royal Highness wants to put Goryeo under his control and become the land I set ****, he has to consider the will of the people, if we don't care about the life and death of the Goryeo people and forcibly attack, I am afraid that it will lead to a resistance from the Goryeo people, and when the royal capital Pyongyang refuses our cooperation, it will not be very wonderful. I'm afraid that Murong Fu used the Goryeo people as a threat, just to make us and the Goryeo people turn against each other" Speaking of this, Yelu Dashi's face was full of helplessness, in the final analysis, this place in Xichuan is too simple, and there is no ingenuity at all. If you insist on attacking Xichuan, hundreds of thousands of Goryeo people will not be able to cross the mountain.

Just when Yelu Dashi and Hu Cheng were at a loss, there was an urgent report, and at first the two of them didn't take it seriously, but after reading the content of the emergency report, Yelu Dashi's brows furrowed tightly, and after a long time, he muttered to himself in disbelief, "It's incredible, I didn't expect the Chai traitors to break through Fenglingdu, and the situation in Guanzhong is not good." It seems that we cannot delay any longer, and we must pull the army back to the Central Plains as soon as possible to join the battle. ”

Guanzhong is too important to Ding****, compared to Guanzhong, Gaoli is a fart. It really should be done according to His Highness's orders, no matter what the means, as long as the remnants of Liaoyan are killed as soon as possible. Hu Cheng looked at the military report roughly, and said with a solemn expression, "Marshal, we can't delay, these nearly 80,000 elite soldiers in the northern region, it is too wasteful to stay in Goryeo, and the Central Plains is our battlefield." The last general suggested that a general attack on Xichuan be launched within two days, and let Pyongyang deliver a message to the people of Xichuan, if you want to survive, you have to rely on yourself, we can save them, but they also have to find a way to save themselves, tens of thousands of **** soldiers will not pay for hundreds of thousands of wastes who do not know how to save themselves. In addition, the last general felt that the direction of Pingchuan and Luchuan could be attacked by the Jurchen servant army, and this group of Jurchen servant troops was a group of hungry wolves, they were too eager for military merit, let them attack Pingchuan and Luchuan, and if the Goryeo casualties were too heavy, we could also shirk it, as long as we said that the Jurchen servant army had just returned to obedience and did not obey discipline, the Goryeo people could not do anything to us. ”

Hu Cheng's proposal is very bold and very ruthless, because the **** promulgated the rules for exchanging heads for military merits, a group of children and real servants have been looking for opportunities to get a handful. These Jurchens are no different from a group of brutes when they fight, although they have the name of ****, but the time is too short, and the bad habits of the original Jurchens have not changed at all. As far as the Jurchens burned, killed and looted, they were asked to fight Pingchuan and Luchuan, and the result would definitely not be better. Yelu Dashi only thought about it for a moment, then nodded and agreed to Hu Cheng's suggestion, "Okay, Ben Shuai let Wanyan Zongxi take the lead, and after the Jurchens make a breakthrough in the direction of Luchuan and Pingchuan, we will launch an attack on Xichuan." ”

After Hu Cheng and Yelu Dashi agreed, the generals and generals were gathered, and when they heard that they were going to use troops against Liao Yan in the near future, the happiest person was Wanyan Zongxi, who had the lowest status. Wanyan Zongxi, as a member of the Jurchen royal family, has just returned to Shunding ****, and has always wanted to have a chance to prove himself. Wanyan Zongxi is too eager for military merit, without military merit, he will always be a despised person after Wanyan Zongxi. Looking at Wanyan Zongxi's beating face, Yelu Dashi said with a cold expression, "General Wanyan, you have to keep an eye on it, this battle is only allowed to succeed and not to fail, this commander doesn't ask you how to do it, as long as you can defeat Pingchuan and Luchuan, I will give you a credit, but if you can't fight, no matter what the reason, the military law will deal with it." ”

"Don't worry, the last general will do his best to take Pingchuan and Luchuan" Wanyan Zongxi swore a military order, in his eyes, Liao Yan is a group of rabble, and he is not the opponent of the Jurchen warriors at all.

After Yan Zongxi led the military order to leave, Yelu Dashi looked at Xiao Conan next to him, "Xiao Conan listens to the order, you lead the headquarters to live behind the Jurchens, if the Jurchens attack goes smoothly and takes the second city of Pingchuan, your department will immediately gallop west to aid Xichuan and cooperate with the army to attack Xichuan City." If the Jurchens attack ineffectively, or there are signs of escape, you immediately take over the battlefield, and leave no one behind the Jurchens who dare to retreat. ”

"No" Xiao Conan is a notoriously ruthless man, and it is only fitting for him to supervise the Jurchen battle. The next day was how to attack Xichuan, the next day, the Jurchen servant army drove to the second city of Pingchuan, and at noon, 20,000 Jurchen servant troops began to launch a fierce attack on Luchuan City, and at this time it was Bao who was responsible for garrisoning Luchuan. Bao Wei commanded well, relying on the strong city wall of Luchuan, and resisted for a long time, but the Jurchens were seriously injured. Wanyan Zongxi was also forced out of his ferocity, he knew very well in his heart that no matter what kind of price he paid, Lu Chuan must take it down, otherwise, let alone say that he could not survive after Wanyan Zongxi, even thousands of Jurchens would be despised. If the Jurchens can't show their bravery, then the status of the servant army will only get lower and lower, which is not the result that Wanyan Zongxi wants.

As soon as the sky was bright the next day, the Jurchen servant army launched an attack again, but this time the Jurchens did not rush to kick the city, but set a fire, and the Jurchens didn't care what the fire would burn, they just blindly lit the fire, there was a small forest in the west of Luchuan, and the fire directly ignited the woods, and the houses in the city were damaged. However, Wanyan Zongxi did not mean to stop, and let people continue to project the things that ignited the fire into the city, which directly caused smoke to begin to smoke everywhere in Luchuan, and those Goryeo people who were hiding in their homes became unlucky, and the number of people who were burned to death is unknown. The fire in the city was together, and the Liaoyan defenders were a little pinned down and didn't know what to do, and when the situation was chaotic, the Jurchens began a real siege battle, and this time the resistance encountered was much smaller. In the middle of the end, Wanyan Zongxi's troops broke through the west gate of Luchuan, entered Luchuan City, fought to the death for eighteen hours, and finally died under the Jurchen rebels. Lu Chuan took it down, but the price was huge, and the entire Lu Chuan City was also destroyed. This is the Jurchens, they are very good at burning, killing and looting, and they have never taken the lives of the Goryeo people seriously.

Luchuan and Pingchuan fell one after another, and due to the bravery and tyranny of the Jurchens, the Goryeo people in both places suffered heavy losses, which of course caused dissatisfaction on the part of Pyongyang, and many Koreans clamored for Yelu Daeshi to give an explanation. Soon Yelu Dashi replied to Pyongyang that everything was caused by the Jurchens, and he couldn't control it. However, Yelu Dashi also said very bluntly, if the Goryeo people are willing to do things for Liaoyan and don't know how to resist, then Xichuan's fate will not be much better. On the eighth day of September, early autumn came, but there was no coolness of autumn, and an army of 50,000 was set to outflank Xichuan from three directions, and the most important battle of Xichuan was about to break out.

This time, Yelu Dashi's attitude was very resolute, and he vowed not to give up if he did not take Xichuan City, and in order to seize Xichuan, Yelu Sha and Gao Chong, who had just recovered from their injuries, also joined the ranks of leading troops. On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, Chongyang Day, Shi Wengong's department took the lead in launching an attack on Xichuan, but Gao Zhong, Yelusha and Hu Cheng's department did not move, and for a time the Liaoyan soldiers and horses stationed in Xichuan did not know what to do. Shi Wengong led the army to attack for half a day, and then consciously withdrew, and after noon, there was no sign of an attack. In the Xichuan City Lord's Mansion, Murong Fu rubbed his forehead with a depressed expression, compared with three years ago, Murong Fu is simply a different person. White hair grows on his sideburns, wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and his face is a little sickly ruddy. Liao Yan's heavy burden was about to drag down this high-spirited man.

To this day, Murong Fu actually understands very well that maybe he will not be able to achieve the so-called Emperor Diagram hegemony in his life, how sharp and chic Wanyan Zongwang was back then, the result is not that he will die and the lights will be extinguished. It's just that for the dream in his heart, Murong Fu can't stop, and he is not willing to stop, he belongs to the Great Yan Kingdom in this life, and the Murong family has carried this responsibility for generations, for this dream, even death and destruction are necessary. But Murong Fu couldn't understand why he had just established the Great Yan Kingdom and fell so quickly, and to this day, Zhao Yougong was too lazy to deal with it personally, and just one Yelu Dashi forced him to be in great difficulty. Now Ding**** has launched a general attack, but it retreats after half of the attack, which is really confusing. What the hell is Yelu Dashi going to do, do you want to fight a war of attrition?

Murong Fu's question did not last long, on the morning of September 11, the Ding **** stationed outside the city suddenly moved, but this time it was a group of simple people who came to Xichuan City, and when they saw this group of people, Gongsun Gan's hands trembled. He recognized that most of these people were people from Zhenhai Mansion and the vicinity of Liaoyang. Why did the **** let these people come, they can figure it out with their butts. Sure enough, these people shouted in a mess when they came to the city, and an old woman on crutches shouted to the city, "Ergouzi, where are you, don't fight, Ding **** didn't embarrass us at all, and sent a cow to the family last month, your sister is so happy." ”

"Situn, go home quickly, Liu Laocai was killed by the **** not long ago, and the land was returned to us, we must have a conscience, we can't go against the regent!"

The common people shouted nonsense, there was a turmoil in the city, Gongsun Qian couldn't wait to jump down and kill this group of people, the hateful Yelu Dashi, this trick was to kill the Liaoyan army. (To be continued.) )
