Chapter 689: All-out attack

Tuoba Khan sent two generals, Yu Chirui and Dugu Zhong, each with 50,000 troops and horses to rush back to Yanmen and Xingxing.

As for the Sushen tribe, it was too far away. After thinking about it, he could only ask Murong Jie from Xianbei in the east to provide support.

Tuoba Khan did not conquer Xianbei in Hexi for the time being and went to Yanmen to support him.

Nowadays, most of the five counties in Bingzhou are in the hands of Xianbei. In addition, Leping, Xinxing and Yanmen have become their territory, and he intends to plow this area.

To send troops from Leping back to Yanmen, they need to pass through Xingxing. Two generals and one hundred thousand troops are enough to sweep this area.

Tuoba Jin hesitated and said, "Father, Murong Jie is so ambitious—"

Murong Jie was from Xianbei in the east, and he had always been dissatisfied with Tuoba Xianbei. Now that he was respected, even if the danger of the Sushen tribe was relieved, there would be many troubles in the future.

Tuoba Khan waved his hand, "I don't care about that anymore!"

Tuoba Khan always had doubts.

Because Pingzhou is a rising power, it has always been relatively tolerant. What they like to do most is to let Dali and Xianbei fight, snipe and clam fight, and the good fisherman profits.

Why is there a sudden large-scale attack on Xianbei?

…

The Sun Army was responsible for attacking Xingxing. Sun Ming, Guo Chong and others also expected that Xianbei would definitely increase their troops to Yanmen and Xingxing, so they sent several waves of scouts early to inquire about the movements of reinforcements.

"Coming, coming."

"Looking at the size of this reinforcement, I'm afraid it won't be more than a hundred thousand troops."

"Please avoid the limelight first!"

When marching and fighting, the most important thing is to obey the command. As soon as the orders were given from above, they immediately broke into pieces. Some retreated to the north of Changshan Mountain, and some directly hid in the mountains and forests...

Anyway, they know that at least half of these 100,000 soldiers and horses belong to them.

At the moment they can't eat a single bite.

Furthermore, they cannot load gunpowder, otherwise their side will be exposed first, which will make it more difficult for the Jintai Army in the rear.

"Half of these 100,000 troops must be going to support Yanmen. It is impossible to stay in Xingxing forever. Let these troops go first!"

Presumably the Jintai Army was waiting for them with a net.

When Yuchi Rui and Dugu Zhong arrived at Xinxing with 100,000 soldiers and horses, except for the Sun Army camp located in the north of Changshan, no large group of Sun Army troops could be found.

However, Yuchi Rui wanted to support Yanmen and could not accompany Dugu Zhong to attack the Sun Army camp.

"What a pity." Yu Chirui said.

Dugu Zhong also felt that it was a pity. He originally thought that the two of them would join forces and take advantage of the power of a hundred thousand troops to destroy the Sun Army first and resolve the emerging crisis, but now the Sun Army has shrunk its head.

Yu Chirui said: If someone doesn't show up, it will take a lot of effort to find him. He can't wait any longer.

"Let's go." Yu Chirui and Dugu Zhong said, and then continued northward with the army.

After they entered the Yanmen territory, they found that the official road had changed from one to two. Both official roads could reach the Yanmen city gate.

"General Yuchi, which way should we go?" asked the young general who was playing forward.

Looking at the two spacious official roads, Yu Chirui decided to divide his troops into two groups.

They, Xianbei, were ambushed once in Jiumen County before. Even if they marched in a hurry this time, Yuchi Rui did not dare to be careless.

And what they later learned was that the Jintai Army was the one who ambushed their third prince.

It is said that the leader of this Jintai army is the husband-in-law of Lu Songli, the lord of Pingzhou, and the youngest general of the Qin family.

Now, the Pingzhou army attacking Yanmen is the Jintai Army. There is no guarantee that they will not use the same method again.

The reason why the third prince suffered heavy losses was also because the march was too intensive.

It was with this in mind that he planned to divide his troops.

He led an army himself and asked his subordinate Yang Min to lead an army.

Yang Min is extremely brave and smart, and has always been highly used by him.

After dividing the troops, he gave his last warning, "Be careful of ambush!"

…

Yang Yingqin led the army to evacuate Zhongshan City.

The previous strategy proposed by subordinates to strengthen the wall and clear the country failed completely.

Next door to Zhongshan is Zhuozhou and Hejian. The people of Zhongshan City have also heard how Pingzhou captured these two cities and settled the people after moving in. Some of the news was even told by their relatives in Zhuozhou or Hejian. They It is a deep belief.

Moreover, they also learned about the daily life of the people in Pingzhou from newspapers from time to time, and they all yearned for it.

Taking a final look at Zhongshan City, the common people were indifferent and indifferent as they watched the withdrawal of their Dali army. Some people even had a faint look of excitement on their faces.

If I don’t give you time, nothing can be done. Eight words came to Yang Yingqin's mind.

"General, these people are so abominable!" the deputy general couldn't help but said.

"Forget it, let's go." After all, they are all Han people.

In this kind of world, it is enough for ordinary people to have a house to live in, clothes to wear, and food to eat. They don't care who the people above are. If the one above could collect less taxes and allow them to serve less, he would be a good monarch.

Yang Yingqin led his army to retreat to Julu.

In the afternoon, news came out that as soon as they left, the people of Zhongshan City, led by Xiang Kun, opened the city gate to welcome the Pingzhou army.

Yang Yingqin felt sad when he heard this.

At this time, the deputy general walked in excitedly, holding a piece of paper, "General, the fight is about to begin!"

"What started the fight?"

"The Pingzhou army and Xianbei are fighting!"

"Um?"

"General Yang, we just received news that Pingzhou went to attack the Yanmen, Xingxing and Sushen tribes."

"What?" Yang Yingqin was shocked.

Pingzhou's move was really beyond his expectation.

Moreover, this move was similar to the strategy of "Besieging Wei to Save Zhao".

This confused Yang Yingqin.

What was Pingzhou doing? Just after besieging Wei to save Zhao, it increased its attack on Zhongshan. It didn't look like it was helping Dali.

The gate guard stumbled in, "General, it's bad! The Pingzhou army is coming!"

Yang Yingqin was shocked when he heard this. The Pingzhou army came so quickly?

Yang Yingqin led his generals to the tower and saw flags fluttering, an army that was obeying orders and exuding a murderous atmosphere.

The leading general was dressed in military uniform and rode a tall horse. He was elegant and heroic.

He recognized that the leader was Qin Heng.

Seeing him, Yang Yingqin couldn't help but think of his father Qin Yue.

Behind Qin Heng and the generals were brave soldiers in armor. The soldiers all had sharp eyes and their weapons were shining coldly.

Yang Yingqin took a deep breath and asked loudly, "Qin Heng, what are you doing?"

Qin Heng laughed loudly, "General Yang, now that I am at the gates of the city, it is obvious what I want."

The deputy general next to Yang Yingqin couldn't help but shout loudly, "Qin Heng, don't be greedy. You just got Zhongshan City and you want Julu?" Too much!

Yang Yingqin raised his hand to stop the deputy general next to him, and asked, "Qin Heng, are you sure you want to start a war with our Dali at this time?"

This is what Yang Yingqin found incredible.

Pingzhou has already invested a large number of troops to fight against Xianbei. At this time, shouldn't it be a truce with Dali, and both sides tacitly turn hostility into friendship temporarily?

"For your father's sake, you retreat now and I won't pursue you."

"General Yang, for my father's sake, please accept the surrender and avoid unnecessary sacrifices."

"Arrogant!"

"General Yang, Julu and Pingzhou are bound to be taken."

"In addition, let me tell you that we in Pingzhou not only want Julu, but also Anping, Qinghe and Pingyuan."

Yang Yingqin took a breath of cold air. He understood that in addition to Julu, Pingzhou would also send troops to Anping, Qinghe and Pingyuan at the same time.

Together with the three armies that went to the Xianbei, Pingzhou was equivalent to an all-out attack.

Is Pingzhou crazy?

They have so many troops to fight so many battles at the same time?

Well, even if they have enough troops, can they support their food and grass?

In Yang Yingqin's cognition, even when Dali was at the peak of its national strength, it would not dare to fight so many battles at the same time.
