Outside the city, the military camps of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan Dynasty were shrouded in a gloomy fog, and the city became a sea of joy, and everywhere was filled with a festive atmosphere, and the morale of the army and the people was high because of the great victory in the west of the city, and they inflicted heavy losses on the besieging enemy army without spending a single soldier.

Li Yuntian did not show much joy in the unexpected victory, and was still busy with his affairs as usual, methodically, for him it was only a small victory in the Battle of Kansai, and he had a lot to do before he had his sights set on winning the Battle of Kansai, and even defeating the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan.

"Sister Lin, has the prince always been like this? With such a big victory, you can still be so calm? Yun Na stayed by Lin Xin's side to do things, and witnessed Li Yuntian's reaction after winning the big victory in Xicheng, and couldn't help but ask Lin Xin curiously in private.

"Qinglong City is still surrounded by enemy troops, the battle situation in Jiayuguan is still anxious, I don't know how the battle situation in Hetao is developing, whether the army of the Northern Expedition can reach Guanxi on time, the prince is worried about a lot of things." Lin Xin smiled slightly when she heard this, and pointed out the mystery to Yun Na.

"The army of the Northern Expedition?" Yun Na couldn't help but be slightly stunned when she heard this, she didn't understand the meaning of Lin Xin's words for a while, she didn't know that Li Yuntian asked Zhang Hao to lead the army to capture the Northern Yuan's lair in Mobei.

"By the way, you don't know about it yet." Seeing this, Lin Xin smiled and explained to Yun Na, "When the prince came to Kansai, he didn't bring reinforcements, he asked the reinforcements to attack Mobei, if everything goes well, he will arrive in Kansai around June, and then it will be the time for the prince to counterattack." ”

"I see!" Yun Na's face was full of surprise, she never expected that Li Yuntian would be so bold and send reinforcements to attack the lair of the Northern Yuan, so that the foundation of the Northern Yuan would be destroyed, and once defeated in Guanxi, he would become a homeless and lonely army.

"Sister, what do you say the prince should do next, will he wait for reinforcements to arrive in the city?" Then, Yun Na thought of something and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"This is not certain, the victory in the Battle of Xicheng is not in the prince's plan, the prince is a person who adapts to the times, and he will definitely have some ideas in the face of the current situation." Lin Xin smiled and winked at Yun Na slyly, Li Yuntian was not a conformist person.

Yun Na also laughed when she heard this, her face was full of excitement, she wanted to know what Li Yuntian would do next.

As Lin Xin said, Li Yuntian was a man who liked to make plans according to the changes in the situation, so after an unexpected victory in the Battle of Xicheng, he was keenly aware of the insufficient number of defenders outside the city, which was good news for him.

"Lord Wang, it's time to eat!" That night, when Li Yuntian stood there with his hands on his chest and looked thoughtfully at the map hanging on the wall, Lin Xin walked in with a tray of food and said to him with a smile.

"As the saying goes, the tree dies, the man lives, you say that if this king sends a team out to toss, will things become more interesting?" Li Yuntian came back to his senses when he heard this, and sat at the table while pulling the food into his mouth, and said with a smile.

"Lord Wang, are you going to divide your troops and go out?" Lin Xin suddenly showed a look of surprise when he heard this, you must know that Li Yuntian's previous goal in Guanxi was to hold Qinglong City, and now if the troops are divided, the strength of Qinglong City will undoubtedly be weakened.

"Now that the Kwantani Army has completely annexed our army, it's really a waste of 200,000 horses in the city to stay like this." Li Yuntian smiled and nodded, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The situation in Guanxi is very different from that of the previous year, and now the battle at Jiayuguan is in full swing, and the enemy army besieging Jiayuguan has lost a lot of troops, so in Li Yuntian's view, the forces of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan in Guanxi are relatively insufficient.

The reason is very simple, the battle at Jiayuguan has now reached a critical moment, and if Li Yuntian sends a force out of the city, the enemy army at Jiayuguan will definitely not send troops to encircle it.

And the reason why the enemy army besieged Qinglong City was to prevent the Ming army from coming out of Qinglong City, so when Li Yuntian divided his troops, even if the enemy army besieging the city was to send troops to intercept it, the number would not be large, and the army that went out of the city should be able to get rid of it.

In Li Yuntian's view, Kansai is now the home of the Ming Dynasty, and the army that goes out of the city with the help of the Guanxi Seven Guards is bound to be like a fish in water, and the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan Dynasty will not be at peace in Kansai.

As for the enemy army in the ancient city of Dunhuang, if Li Yuntian had not guessed wrong, the leaders of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan army would definitely stay in the ancient city of Dunhuang, because the ancient city of Dunhuang was an excellent place to garrison, and the troops of the ancient city of Dunhuang would definitely not be transferred unless it was absolutely necessary.

In this way, the army leaving the city can not only take the opportunity to destroy the army of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan, but also reduce the pressure on the Ming army in Qinglong City.

"Lord Wang, who are you going to send to lead the army to attack?" Lin Xin had been by Li Yuntian's side for so long, so she naturally knew that Li Yuntian had decided to divide her troops and go out of the city, otherwise she would definitely not mention it to her rashly, so she asked with interest.

"This king has decided to send 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 foot soldiers from the enemy camp outside the West City, the enemy army outside the West City has just suffered a great defeat, and the will to fight is not strong, and it should be able to break through from it smoothly." Li Yuntian groaned for a while, swallowed the food in his mouth, and said with a smile, "Lord Bai has been resting long enough, this time the king decided to let him lead the troops, and the loyal and righteous king will assist him." ”

"In addition, you select a group of staff officers to give Bai Hou Ye advice and help Bai Hou Ye give advice." Saying that, Li Yuntian remembered something, so he opened his mouth and instructed Lin Xindao.

"Don't worry, your subordinates will arrange it." Lin Xin smiled when she heard this, and agreed in a coquettish voice, this time Li Yuntian's division of troops would definitely bring huge trouble to the enemy army outside the city.

The next morning, Bai An and Timur came to meet after receiving a summons from Li Yuntian, and Li Yuntian informed the two of them of the decision to divide the troops, and asked the two to prepare for relevant matters in the next few days.

For Li Yuntian's decision, Bai An and Tuhuan Timur were both surprised, the two originally thought that Li Yuntian would always stick to Qinglong City, but they didn't expect him to divide his troops to attack, which really surprised the two.

"Lord Bai, King Zhongyi, your task is not to fight a decisive battle with the enemy, but to harass the enemy army, find a favorable fighter to annihilate the enemy, and do not fight hard with the enemy."

Li Yuntian knew that Bai An and Timur were not mentally prepared for this matter, so he admonished in a deep voice, "In a word, if you can fight, you will fight, and if you can't fight, you will run, and if you can drag the enemy down, it will be your victory, and they hope to end the war in Kansai as soon as possible than us." ”

Bai An and Timur were immediately relieved when they heard this, now outside the city is the world of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan Dynasty, with Li Yuntian's order to "reach if you can fight, and run if you can't fight", the psychological pressure on the two of them suddenly decreased a lot.

In particular, Bai An knew that Li Yuntian appointed him as the chief general of the Ming army out of the city, which was to give him a chance to make meritorious contributions, which had saved face for the Western Expeditionary Army, and also made him not be besieged by the officials in the imperial court because of the defeat of the Western Expeditionary Army after returning to Beijing in the future.

Moreover, Bai An knows that the military merit system of the Xiaowu Army is different from that of the Daming Weisuo Army, what the Weisu Army needs is to win battles and kill the number of enemies, and the Xiaowu Army is in accordance with the degree of execution of the main general's orders, if the protagonist's task is completed, even if it is defeated, then it will get the military merit it it deserves.

In other words, the military merit evaluation of the Xiaowu Army is based on the contribution made to the war as a whole, rather than the victory or defeat of the part of the war.

Therefore, Bai An does not need to lead the army to fight hard with the army of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan, he can lead the other party's nose and wander around the western part of the country, without being said by outsiders to be cowardly or avoid war.

One morning in mid-March, the artillery on the south gate of Qinglong City suddenly emitted a deafening roar, which made the soldiers in the barracks outside the south gate extremely nervous, and they got up from their sleep and waited for the battle.

After hearing the sound of artillery in the south of the city, the main generals of the enemy camps outside the east and west cities sent troops to the rescue, and the movement in the south of the city was so big that they thought that the Ming army was going to attack the military camp outside the south city, and in their opinion, Li Yuntian in the city was definitely capable of doing this kind of thing.

Just when the attention of the enemy troops outside the city was alarmed by the movement in the south of the city, the west gate of Qinglong City slowly opened, and Bai An and Tuhuan Timur led 50,000 horses out of the city and went straight to the camp of the Northern Yuan army outside the city.

Obviously, the sound of artillery in the south of the city was to cover Bai An and Timur Timur from breaking through from outside the west gate, and the more chaotic the situation outside the city, the more beneficial it would be for Bai An and Timur.

The morale in the Northern Yuan military camp outside Xicheng is now at the bottom, not to mention the heavy casualties caused them in the last battle of Xicheng, they just finished cleaning up the dead bodies in front of the city a few days ago, which is a huge blow to the Northern Yuan soldiers in the military camp.

In order to make up for the lack of troops, Tuhuan had to transfer reinforcements to Taiping from the ancient city of Dunhuang to ensure that the besieging enemy army had a military advantage over the Ming Dynasty, and was extremely annoyed by the death of Duo Sang.

After learning the news of the Ming army's attack from Xicheng, Taiping, who stayed in the camp, was taken aback, and he never imagined that Li Yuntian would trouble him twice in just over half a month, which made him quite depressed.

At the same time, Taiping also realized that the movement of the Ming army in the south of the city was a feint, so he ordered the Northern Yuan soldiers in the camp to be on guard, and he also put on armor to prepare for battle, in his opinion a big battle was inevitable.

"Your Excellency, the Ming army that came out of the city did not attack our military camp area, but passed through the north side of our camp, and then headed northwest, did our army come out of the camp to meet the battle?" Just as Taiping was nervously waiting for the Ming army to attack the camp with a knife, a general suddenly came in a hurry to report.

"No, the whole army is on alert, so as not to deceive the Ming army." Taiping was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the general with a serious expression.

Obviously, Taiping realized that the Ming army in the west of the city was just breaking through, and did not want to launch an attack on the camp where he was, since he was too lazy to ask for trouble to provoke the Ming army, did he want him to desperately block the Ming army's footsteps with the Ming army? He wasn't so stupid to consume his descendants in vain.

It was in this situation of intrigue within the Northern Yuan Dynasty that Bai An and Tuhuan Timur successfully led 50,000 horses through the defense area of the Northern Yuan army and disappeared into the vast night.
