Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

Fengguchuan is the moat to the north of Jinyang City, and it is also an outlet among the mountains in the western border of Jinyang. If you follow this river to the east, you can directly reach the northern part of Jinyang City.

When Li Tai led his troops into the valley, and took advantage of the situation to break through a small dock wall here, and confirmed from the prisoners that they had indeed entered the scope of the wind valley, he felt calm and could not help but secretly sigh that heaven and earth had come to help. There are dangers when going deep behind enemy lines.

When the team rushed out of Chiji Ridge, they chased the broken soldiers for a distance, and then turned east. From Chishiling to Jinyang, due to the rugged and winding road, the actual distance is still nearly 300 miles, which is neither long nor short.

Although Luo Chao had already stated that there were no heavy troops guarding this area, the smoothness of the rest of the journey was still beyond Li Tai's imagination. They encountered no obstruction at all, so much so that Li Tai once wondered whether they were operating near Jinyang in the enemy's rear?

When he was blocked at Chiji Ridge, Li Tai couldn't help but think that the man left behind in Jinyang Bafu was a master tactician with perfect timing, but after learning the inside story of those people, he was speechless. , I just feel that he is rigid and lacks the ability to adapt to changes.

In particular, what kind of smart brain came up with the idea of ​​attracting armed Hu merchants from outside the Great Wall in Beishan to join the war? If you think I am a serious threat, then immediately dispatch elite troops to kill him. Otherwise, stick to the key points in the environment and block the danger in a fixed area.

However, he took it for granted that his troops were vulnerable, and then acted smart enough to attract another troop that was neither controllable nor trustworthy. Wasn't this because he was afraid that the rear area would not be lively enough?

Even without Li Yunxin and others infiltrating the situation, rashly attracting outsiders to enter the hinterland will increase various unpredictable risks and is not like a decision made by a mature, steady and experienced general.

The Fengguchuan area serves as the north gate of Jinyang. There are a lot of wall forts set up in the river valley, one almost every few miles.

However, there were very few people stationed on the walls of these forts. Li Tai led his troops to sweep all the way in, hardly losing much time on the road, but he also gained almost nothing.

Although if it is properly arranged here, it can also form an effective line of defense, but the terrain is not absolutely impenetrable. If it is really broken one by one, it will become a blood-replenishing point for the intruders.

It can only be said that the guards here tend to be conservative and do not want to expose too many flaws. However, this style is contrary to the previous behavior of attracting Hu Shang's armed forces as support. Although Li Tai made great progress all the way, he was still confused when he got here. He couldn't figure out how Jinyang stayed behind to make the contingency decision, and it was so erratic.

When the team arrived at the mouth of the valley, the tall walls of Jinyang City were already vaguely visible. There were no fires towering into the sky or standing guard, but the firelights that lit up at intervals on the top of the city also outlined the tall outline of the city. Come out, under the thick night, giving people a deep pressure.

Luocheng to the north of Jinyang was built by Liu Kun in the Western Jin Dynasty to resist the Huns Liu Yuan's rebellion. Li Tai rushed all the way from Zuo Guocheng in Liu Yuan's old city, and now he is at the gate of Jinyang City. It can be said that he wants to overthrow both the pros and cons with his own strength.

Seeing that there was no defense on the city and the atmosphere was like facing a powerful enemy, Li Tai felt unhappy. He immediately ordered his troops to rush out and the drums and horns sounded to fill the atmosphere of pressing the army first.

He currently has more than 3,000 troops, which is insignificant compared to the fortified city of Jinyang in front of him, but if he just makes noise and makes noise, it is enough to make the whole city panic and restless.

As the noise of people and horses continued to enter the city, the city was suddenly lit up with fire. This was to announce to the residents of the city that even if there were enemy invaders coming to disturb them, the city was still well guarded and there was no need to panic and wander around.

But despite this, the sudden black clouds over the city caused panic to spread rapidly in the city. The world has been in chaos for a long time, but thanks to the control of King Gao, there have been no military disasters in Jinyang City in recent years. Now that it is suddenly disturbed again, the panic in the heart is doubled. Therefore, many citizens ignored the orders and warnings of the sergeants and rushed to the streets to wait and see for good or bad news.

By the blazing fire on the top of the city, Li Tai could also clearly see the layout under the city wall. Several trenches and horses were distributed layer by layer. In addition, the moat Fengguchuan was deliberately widened. Not to mention his mere 3,000 troops. Adding another zero at the end would probably make it impossible to break into the city.

However, he was not marching here to attack the city. While the soldiers and people in the city were panicking, he ordered his soldiers to shout loudly into the city: "He Liuhun is so arrogant and unethical, he is a great thief of the country, and he has taken it upon himself." Destroyed, the army has been defeated, and in front of the first battle! A certain group of kings came here under the orders of Prime Minister Yuwen to kill the remaining members of the Gao family and save the six states of Paoze!

After shouting such slogans, there was a sudden commotion on the city top, and many of the defenders were shocked and suspicious. Everyone knew that King Gao's army was heading south. If the army had not been defeated, how could these Western thieves come to Jinyang City?

But some people didn't believe this nonsense at all. According to the loud insults from the top of the city, Li Tai realized that the vocabulary of Xianbei dialect was not small, but it was not vivid enough to express emotions directly.

He was not angry at these insults. Anyway, those who were scolded were the eighteenth generation of Yuwen Heita's ancestors. He further simplified the slogan, and continued to shout into the city uniformly with the rhythmic drum beat: " Kill the Gao family and save Paoze! The soldiers are not dead, and the city has been dedicated!"

As soon as this slogan was simplified, its effect was greatly increased, and all kinds of curses on the city were stopped.

As the saying goes, don’t hit anyone with a smiling face, not to mention their hostile stance. These people still regard the survivors of the six towns as brothers. This is worth crying. If they still shout about beating and killing, they are really too much. Ruthless. What crime do these enemies have? It's just that they all have their own masters. Even if they are at war with each other, they still can't bear to kill the townspeople and fellow villagers, and they still have to persuade them to surrender. They really...

As a result, the emotions changed and the voices on the city walls were weakened, allowing these shouts to be transmitted into the city more unhindered. After hearing these clear slogans, the people in the city suddenly became more panicked.

Shediqian originally wanted to hold on to the city and wait for dawn before arranging a counterattack, but he did not expect the enemy to be so aggressive. Hearing the uniform sound of singing and drums outside the city, he was so angry that his brain ached. He looked around the city and the generals shouted loudly. Said: "Who dares to go out of the city to fight and destroy the evil voice!"

At this time, all the generals on the city were filled with righteous indignation. When they heard what Shedigan said, they all stepped forward to ask for a fight.

Shedigan's eyes turned around in the crowd, and finally fell on a young general. He motioned for him to come forward and said in a deep voice: "Although the thieves are coming from afar, their momentum is still weak. Just advance slowly and retreat. Don’t be obsessed with long battles.”

The young man's name was Dugu Yongye, and he was the governor of the six states in Dingzhou. He was responsible for commanding the people from the six states who settled in Dingzhou. He was one of Shedigan's favorite subordinates. After hearing this, he quickly crossed his hands and said: " The general will definitely live up to the instructions given by the Grand Master!"
