1035 It is inevitable? The face slap is coming soon
Not only Zhao Dejun, Yelu Bei looked at his handsome and burly adopted son Zhao Yanshou, and smiled:
"General Xiao Zhao is born with a handsome appearance and a talented person. Now he has changed his surname to Zhao with Lingzun. I heard that you and Zhao Yun, a famous general in the late Han Dynasty, are also fellow townsmen. As expected, as majestic as his ancestors, they are strong and strong... I hope General Xiao Zhao will follow my loyalty and become Zhao Zilong, Changshan, who has made achievements under my command..."
If you give face, you should be a good student. What's more, Yelu Bei meets him first, and you must be happy to curry favor with the powerful Khitan royal family? Zhao Yanshou not only has his original surname Liu, but only recognizes his adopted father and his first surname Li and then Zhao. Even though he still follows Zhao Dejun to work hard for foreign tribes, he really doesn't know much about it. He is also very happy to others praise him for being similar to Zhao Yun... So when he hears Yelu Bei's praise, he suddenly feels happy, and he does not forget to reply with a respectful reply:
"Your Highness is accused of praise, and I am really frightened! In the future, I will also be able to do whatever I want, and live up to your high expectations!"
Zhao Dejun was still laughing with him and chatting for a while. Suddenly his ear moved, and he didn't know if it was an auditory hallucination. It seemed that there was a wailing sound when he was killed, and even realized that he was betrayed. The extremely resentful curse before he died was faintly heard...
The government office hall of the prefecture is still far from the suburban school site. The sound of the massacres there will not be any reason for it to be transmitted here... However, Zhao Dejun also realized that Yelu Bei issued an order to send his troops to show his butcher swords. He had almost started to take action, and he wanted to drive all the soldiers of the former Yin'an Khitanzhi generals and soldiers.
But in front of Yelu Bei, Zhao Dejun's old face still bloomed like a chrysanthemum... In theory, many of the old subordinates in the army that he had always led, and they got along with them more or less. Zhao Dejun thought to himself that since the Khitan could not tolerate you, you had to die...
Although it is a pity to lose the old subordinates to serve the scene, now we have to win the attention of Khitan powers and other Khitans, such as Yelube, so that we, father and son, have a better chance to win high officials and generous salaries... What's more, the Khitans are conquering the Han area and using Han ministers to manage the Han people is not impossible to seek a king... or even an opportunity to become emperor, which is more important than anything.
Yelu Bei encouraged a few more words, and suddenly said with a smile:
"I have two more talented talents in Khitan, and I am very happy... and, according to the will of my father, I will be in charge of the resettlement of officials in several prefectures in Yanyun, and even the Han people and the baggage dispatch. However, Li Siyuan still refused to accept his orders... Not only that, some of the remaining troops were stubborn and insisted on defending the city to resist our army. General Zhao and the emperor might as well follow me to Jixian, the capital of Youzhou... "
After hearing this, Zhao Dejun and Zhao Yanshou immediately thought that although Li Cunxian, the governor of the Lulong Army of the Later Tang Dynasty, died of illness due to overwork... However, the death of the commander seemed to have caused his commander to have the will to fight to the death due to extreme grief and anger. The Khitan army invaded the Chuzhou Prefectures in the north of Yanyun, and the Wei army had begun to annex the territory under the rule of Lulong Army from the south, but a corner of Youzhou was still defending the city, which became a relatively difficult tough bone for the Khitan.
However, the defenders of Ji County, Youzhou were isolated and had no help, and were destined to be unable to hope that there would be a military troop to come to rescue him. Now, it would be a day to stay, but there is also the possibility that the city gate will be broken at any time...
Li Siyuan abandoned Zhuozhou and met with several groups of subordinates of Later Tang, and then set off directly to the north of the Continental, but did not choose to rush to Youzhou... Because he knew very well that it was in the Wei Dynasty, and the Khitans continued to capture the frontier of the prefecture from the north and south directions. If he delayed a few days ago, he would have a great chance of being attacked by the army of both sides. It would be very likely that it would be easy to go, but it would be difficult to leave... so he could only move north as soon as possible.
In this way, Ji County, Youzhou is like a lonely boat in the storm, turning over and over at some point.
Later, the Jinyang court of the Tang Dynasty fell, and the Wei Dynasty and the Khitan were like two wild beasts, constantly dividing and devouring the territory of this empire... Nowadays, the ownership of military strategists and key places has probably been settled. The two wild beasts feasted, spreading their bloody mouths and gnawing wildly, but they were about to hit each other in Youzhou... It depends on who can swallow the prefecture in this place in one bite...
Under the towering city walls of Ji County, abandoned siege equipment was scattered everywhere not long ago, and the bodies of soldiers who had killed the city were also everywhere. Under the city walls, there were not only a few long ladders that had fallen, but also several digging gaps.
After several rounds of offensives, the siege troops rushed over according to the teachings of the Han army. Around them, colleagues set up shields to cover them, and braved the rock arrows to dig up the soil desperately, with the intention of digging gaps from the bottom of the wall so that the large group of troops could rush in. However, because the defenders in the city were very tenacious in resisting, they still returned in vain when they pounced on the city a few times.
Compared with field battles, the Khitan army was not good at fighting siege wars after all... Even though the Han minister Lu Wen had previously published a plan to dig tunnels and broke through the Zhenwu Army's headquarters, he still showed his life's learning and taught the Khitan army various good methods of siege... but it may not work every time, let alone that it will not become fat in one bite. To make the Khitan army master the deployment and tactics of siege, it would have taken a long process.
He used a large number of simple siege equipment made by rushing to work, and forced a large number of Han people to attack the city together with the soldiers, but several layers of corpses were laid under the city wall. Every time he retreated, even the Khitan soldiers saw the struggle and howling of those who had not yet died under the city wall, and even the tragic corpses, they all looked scared, and they didn't know that the next time they snatched the city, they would fall to such a way of death.
The Ji County of Youzhou was unable to conquer for a while, Yelu Bei then changed his method of siege. He dispatched several troops and horses to plunder and escort two groups of wealth. The Han people took turns to attack Ji County. After all, the defenders in the city were killed. If the enemy did not completely trap the city, they would likely choose to abandon the city and break through.
Once the remaining Ya army in Lulong Town left the city, it could no longer rely on the city to defend the city. For all Khitan troops, it would be prey on the plains... However, the defenders in the city have persisted until now, and Yelu Bei's patience has gradually been exhausted, and he wished he could capture the city as soon as possible, and completely slaughter the remaining resistance forces under the rule of the Later Tang Lulong Army.
The black Khitan cavalry rushed to Jixian again, and this time it formed a siege of the city walls. The cavalry teams roared and ran around the edge of the range of bows and arrows, like hungry wolves, constantly searching for the fatal keys of their prey, so they were about to pounce on them and bite them.
Yelu Bei was urging his horse to come by Zhao Dejun, Zhao Yanshou, and even a group of Khitan generals. He looked at the corpses under Jixian City, but they were charred and damaged everywhere, and the traces left by the pounced on the city for several days were still there. Above the city gate, you could vaguely see scattered fangs moving and quickly lined up to fight the fierce offensive that you were about to face.
Yelu Bei laughed, raised the whip, turned his head and said to Zhao Dejun, Zhao Yanshou and his son who were following closely behind:
"Youzhou was originally the capital of Lulong's army and was also the center of Youyan's land. The vassal states and even the vassal states and even the father and son of Liu Rengong and Li Keyong, used this place as a key defense center, and guarded against the movements of our Khitan for many years...
It is difficult for Lu Long’s army to defend to this day. However, if we continue to resist, there will be fewer and fewer people, and the food and fodder will eventually be exhausted. Even if we can resist for a while, our Khitan will still have to conquer Jixian and capture Youzhou, which is inevitable.
Now I am afraid that there will be more dreams at night... Our army must conquer this place as soon as possible. If General Zhao and the Imperial Palace have good methods to destroy the city, they will be the first achievement of our Khitan."
