In the imperial study room, Yang Guang stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, staring at the north, his eyes full of worries. He didn't know whether his decision was wise, so he asked a young general to command him to ascend to the throne of the Great Sui Emperor.

The battle is related to his dignity.

Yang Guang has learned about Xue Yantuo's strength. This is a powerful nomadic people with 200,000 people who can fight. The people are strong and brave, and they have defeated the Western Turks this summer.

Their Khan was stubborn and aggressive. In order to avenge the murder of his son, would he have all out? Even if half of them were sent and 100,000 people came to attack Dali City, would Yang Yuanqing resist it?

Once Xue Yantuo conquered Dali City and entered Fengzhou, not only did Fengzhou suffer heavy losses, but he, Yang Guang, would also lose all his face, and the Turkic heart would be unofficial. From then on, there will be many troubles in the north and even seriously affect him.

The major plan of the Western Regions is really a tangle.

Yang Guang sighed and said to himself: "Yang Yuanqing, can you defend Dali City for me?"

Fifty miles south of Dali City, Yu Juluo led 25,000 cavalrymen patiently waiting for the order issued by the direction of Dali City. Two days have passed, and there is no news on Dali City.

Although he was anxious and wanted to lead the army to kill him several times, he still restrained himself. In the war against Xue Yantuo, he was only the deputy general, and Yang Yuanqing was the chief general. This was the emperor's secret order. He dared not disobey this secret order.

He doesn't want to ruin his future for a moment of impulse.

The Sui army camp covers hundreds of acres of land, and the snow is covered with tents. Yu Juluo stood on the viewing tower in front of the camp, looking at the beacon tower in the distance, according to his agreement with Yang Yuanqing. If he needed to lead his army to suppress the enemy, he would lead a large force.

He raised the roster of beacon towers. It was noon on the third day, but the beacon towers in the distance still had no movement, which made him feel disappointed.

At this time, a team of cavalry rushed back from the north. This was the scout sent by Yu Juluo. Yu Juluo was overjoyed and asked from a distance: "How is the battle in Dali City?"

The scout team was urging him to step forward, holding his fists and bowing, "Report to Yushuai, the battle in Dali City is tragic, and there are all corpses on the fields outside the city. According to the observation of Beizhi, Xueyantuo's army has killed at least 20,000 people in battle.

"What about the Sui army?" Yu Juluo asked anxiously.

"I don't know the situation in the city, so it shouldn't be very good. Only a dozen of them will be used after fifty catapults."

Yu Juluo was anxious. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to himself: "Yuanqing, why haven't you lighted the war smoke?"

A soldier suddenly pointed to the distance and shouted: "Shishou, Fengyan!"

Yu Juluo looked up and saw a pillar of beacon towers lit in the distance. He was overjoyed and turned around and shouted: "Tell me my order, and the whole army will prepare!"

The sound of the horn sounded. [This chapter is provided by you] Half an hour later, 25,000 Sui cavalry appeared in the boundless wilderness, with great momentum. At the command of Yu Juluo, 25,000 Sui cavalry divided

For the third team, he ran towards Dali City with murderous intent.

The offensive and defensive battle in Dali City has entered the third day, and the war is extremely fierce. In the two days of siege, Xue Yantuo has killed more than 20,000 people, while the Sui army has been killed and injured by nearly 2,000 people, and more than 3,000 craftsmen have also been killed and injured by more than 3,000 people.

The corpses were piled up under the city of Dali, and the wilderness was stained with blood. But Dali City always stood tall and the morale of the Sui army became higher and higher.

Early in the morning of the third day, a ray of sunshine shone through the clouds on the head of the city of Italy. The snow-covered city was shining with a magical and dazzling light. If you only look at the city of the city, it will make people feel that this is only in myth.

The magic castle that appeared was shining with bright ice crystals.

But if the eyes move downwards, the magic disappears, and what comes into view is a hellish land, with corpses everywhere, and the broken ladder falls on the snow. Only half of the nest cart is left, but more are soldiers who died in battle

Some curled up with temporary pain on their faces, some lost their heads, some were incomplete, some were smashed into cakes, their blood was blurred, and all the corpses were frozen into ice.

The city was particularly quiet, with thousands of Sui soldiers wrapped in thick sheepskin and mao blankets, crowding each other, leaning against the wall and falling asleep, looking exhausted. After two days of fighting, most of them

No one was close to his eyes and was exhausted.

Among the dozens of soldiers huddled together to fall asleep in the East City Wall, the main general Yang Yuanqing also squeezed together with the soldiers to fall asleep. His Sky-Breaking Spear became the pillow for him and several soldiers. At this moment, there was no main general or soldiers.

After two days of defending the city of Dali, everyone was enjoying this extremely precious nap.

Yang Sien led a team of sentries patrolling the city. When passing by Yang Yuanqing, he picked up a piece of sheepskin that had slipped from the ground and gently covered the young general. He turned around and smiled and booed the soldiers, leading the patrol soldiers to leave quietly.

At this time, a group of more than a hundred men carried the hot Hu cake and rou soup and walked quickly across the suspension bridge.

But the quiet morning did not last long. When the morning light began to turn blood red, the drum sound of Xueyantuo camp sounded again, "Dong! dong! dong! dong! dong! dong! dong! dong! 'The huge drum sound woke Sui soldiers from their sleep one after another.

Yang Yuanqing jumped up, roued his eyes, lay on the battlements and looked into the enemy camp in the distance.

This time, what he saw was the large-scale mobilization of the Xueyantuo people. The enemy troops in the entire camp were mobilized, and enemy groups from all directions were gathering, gathering into pieces of black square formations, gradually forming a overwhelming attack.

"Send my order quickly!"

Yang Yuanqing turned around and ordered: "All soldiers and craftsmen, all the soldiers and craftsmen are put into battle!"

He turned around and stared at the overwhelming enemy army. The amount of enemy troops invested twice as much as the previous two days. He already understood that today would be the enemy's desperate battle, and the outcome would be decided today.

‘Dang!Dang!Dang!’

The bell to summon the army was ringing, and teams of Sui troops rushed across the suspension bridge and quickly gathered in the outer city. The temporarily armed craftsmen also rushed from the inner city, and the five-mile outer city wall was densely covered with Sui.

The army, with shiny swords and spears, and the bows and arrows were densely covered, and the red flag of the Sui army fluttered in the sun.

Outside the city, the overwhelming enemy troops have been lined up. With the first and second days of siege, the siege was dragged to the third day, Shalu Lie was beaten to the point where he could not go. Today is his deadline.

If he cannot win the city of Li, it will directly affect his succession to the Khan throne.

Sha Lu Lie made a heart-to-heart, and invested 50,000 troops at one time, putting all the last 200 ladders and fifty nest cars into battle.

He stared at the suspension bridge that was raised high with cruel eyes. The suspension bridge had already fallen. He turned around and looked back at the back camp. A huge siege ram had appeared in the military camp behind him. This would be his last tragic

kill.

"Attack!" Sha Luli waved his sword and hissed.

Xue Yantuo's drum sound began to become tight, this was the sound of attacking drum sound. Fifty thousand Xue Yantuo's army surrounded 200 ladders and fifty nest cars and rushed towards Dali City like a huge black carpet.

The entire field is covered.

After a night of emergency repairs, the catapults on the city were restored to thirty, and long arm poles were thrown out one after another. Dozens of huge rocks hit the enemy group like an ant colony, and each huge rock hit the ground.

, a gap will appear, snow mist is filled with blood, and wailing sounds resound throughout the field, but in an instant, the gap will close and be submerged by the attacking enemy group.

With a 'boom!', a nest cart was hit by a huge rock, wood chips splashed everywhere, and the giant wood collapsed. Dozens of soldiers on the nest cart screamed and fell down.

The tall nest car is specially designed for Dali City. The nest car has two feet long and six feet high. It is made of giant wood and is covered with cowhide. The structure is very simple. The nest car is hollow and has a staircase that leads to the top. The top is

A wooden platform was filled with forty or fifty Xueyantuo soldiers. The front end of the platform was covered with thick wooden boards covered with cowhide, which could withstand the bows and arrows of the Sui army.

There are four wooden wheels underneath, dragged by fifty war horses, and hundreds of soldiers are pushed by both left and right and rear. As long as this nest cart is not hit by a huge rock, it can send soldiers to the top of the city, which is even more important than a ladder.

Sharp.

Another nest cart was hit at the bottom, and a wooden wheel took off. The nest cart tilted and swayed, gradually losing its center of gravity. The soldiers on both sides shouted and ran away. Amid the shouts, the nest cart fell down.

The 50,000 Xueyantuo army attacked like a disaster. The huge rocks that were shot out in turn were like langhuas splashing in the ocean. They were instantly submerged. The enemy troops, who were like crazy, finally approached the city wall.

On the narrow open space between the inner and outer city walls, more than a hundred soldiers were dumping buckets of turmeric oil on the ground. Fengzhou sent a total of 500 barrels of turmeric oil. The soldiers dumped more than 300 barrels of turmeric oil at a time.

On the open space, the black and viscous liquid slowly flowed on the ground, full of pungent oily smell. Then more than a hundred soldiers climbed up the city wall along the ladder.

The frontal battle has entered the most cruel stage. Arrows on the city are like raining rain. People are constantly being hit by arrows and falling down. Ladders are erected on the city wall. Xue Yantuo's soldiers are like crazy and climbing upwards. They are holding up one hand

Shield, with a spear and a knife, fought against the Sui army with one hand, and huge rocks were smashed down on the top of his head. There were always a few soldiers screaming and falling down the ladder, but immediately someone rushed up.

Sui soldiers were shot from both sides, and the arrows were sharp and straight through leather armor. A series of soldiers on the ladder were thrown off the ladder. But soon, Xue Yantuo soldiers no longer cared about the top of their heads, protected the shield on both sides, and were shot in the arrow.

Xue Yantuo's soldiers gradually decreased.

On the top of the city, dozens of Sui troops were fighting against the enemy in front of each ladder. In front of a ladder in the west of the city, Liu Jian was already red in his eyes. He led fifty Sui troops to rush upwards.

In the enemy's battle, they faced the sharp soldiers of the Xue tribe. They were tall and as strong as cows, holding shields in their hands, waving long swords and sharp spears.

Spear sprints, swords slashing, fighting bloody battles, a Sui army soldier was cut on his forehead in front of the ladder, and blood surged, falling down on his back, another Sui army waved his spear and rushed forward, and the spear pierced the enemy xiong

He picked him down the city and held back the gap again.

A strong Xue Yantuo soldier pushed the Sui army with his shield and was the first to jump onto the city. In an instant, dozens of Sui army's spears stabbed from all sides, and the spear penetrated the body. Xue Yantuo soldier screamed and rolled down, but

It was this enemy who rushed to the city, causing a short gap in the defense of the ladder. He was suppressed on the ladder and the soldiers of Xueyantuo seized the opportunity. In an instant, more than a dozen fierce soldiers of Xueyantuo rushed to the city.
