Chapter 672

Yang Qian, who was stationed in Yunnei City south of Baishan Mountain, received the news only an hour and a half later than Li Jing. Yang Qian couldn't help but feel a little uneasy after receiving the news.

Of course, we were not worried about the Turkic army going south, but we were worried that Shibi Khan would not be inspired by his own declaration of war and would not attack Baishan Mountain, but would disperse his troops and attack from all sides.

In that case, it would be difficult for the Suppressing Army to gather together and annihilate the Turkic troops, and they would have to disperse their forces to resist. In this case, the war may not end until winter.

Yang Qian didn't want to waste too much time and energy trying to deal with the Turks. After all, unifying China was the most important thing he should do now.

Standing on the city wall of Yunnei City, Yang Qian looked at the mountains outside the pass through the bright silver moonlight, as if even the mountains and rivers were painted pale white by the moonlight.

The dilapidated Yunnei Castle has undergone several years of repairs and reinforcements, and now it can be called a rare military fortress in the world. The front of the wall is no longer the flat surface it used to be.

Instead, it is a leaf-shaped wall that extends out like petals, and is a fortress made entirely of bricks and stones, when the enemy wants to attack.

The defenders on the city can attack the enemy from the side, or even attack the enemy from the front and back. In addition, more ordnance has been erected above the city wall.

These ordnance, in Yang Qian's words, should be called defensive attack ordnance, such as a trebuchet that can throw a large amount of gravel and hit the enemy siege in a wide range.

There are also a series of inclined holes, which can pour hot oil and other objects directly into the city wall, and splash them outside the city wall to injure the enemy. There are also strong arrow towers, which can accommodate dozens of archers under the cover of strong masonry barriers.

Attack the enemy calmly.

When they saw the Yunnei City guarding the main road between Hezhen Mountain and Wuzhou Mountain again, all the generals and generals of the Zhenfu Army who had experienced the previous siege of Yanmen felt a strong sense of shock.

If the siege of Yanmen had happened today, I don't know if Shibi Khan could have led his army to attack Yanmen Pass.

And Yunneicheng can be said to be an important town guarding in front of Yanmen Pass.

Yanmen Pass is really too important. In history, there have been countless battles with foreign races in the Yanmen Pass area, and the time span has exceeded a thousand years.

In the past few years, Yang Ning has strengthened the city defenses in dangerous places, trained soldiers and border youths, and made various preparations for war. He has also vigorously built roads, expanded and leveled them.

It not only facilitates ordinary people and businessmen, but also greatly facilitates the mobilization of armies.

It can be said that if the Zhenfu Army could achieve the final victory, it would be inseparable from Yang Ning, the Jinyang stayer, who has worked hard in Shanxi over the years and prepared for a rainy day.

"Qian'er, don't think too much. When a war is approaching, the most taboo thing is for the coach to be uneasy." His father's gentle comforting voice came from beside Yang Qian.

"Father taught me a lesson. The child's mood is really confused at the moment." Yang Qian turned around and bowed to his father, saying rather sadly.

"Actually, as a father, I never thought that you would achieve what you have today step by step, which really makes the world look at you." Yang Ning patted his son's arm with a big hand, and was deeply moved.

In the past, I just thought that my son had a lot of potential, but now it seems that this biological son is really promising to the point that even my own father is dumbfounded.

But at this point, as a father, he didn't provide much help to his son. He relied more on his own talents and strategies to achieve his achievements.

Even the title of Lord Zheng Guogong that he was awarded, although he said that he took the blame for his own son, could it be that he did not get it because of his son's glory?

"The higher you stand, the heavier the burden is on your shoulders." When Yang Ning said this, there was a hint of joking in his tone.

"In the past, my father always hoped to protect you from wind and rain and bear all the burdens. But now, my father cannot bear this burden. I can only hope that you can bear it yourself."

Yang Qian also laughed and couldn't help but think of the past when he secretly asked his father to take the blame for him.

Fortunately, I have such a father who allows me, who only wants to grow up, to develop and grow in a place where I can have wings to cover myself.

By the time he was able to shoulder the heavy burden alone, he had already become a powerful man in charge of the twelve counties in the south of the Yangtze River. Jiangdu stayed behind. At that time, there were very few things in the world that could threaten him. Perhaps it should be said that

, from that time on, I was able to control my own destiny and not be influenced by this era.

"Today, my father still remembers what you said about the change of dynasty that day. In the past few days, my father has also been thinking about it carefully. However, my son, you have such ambitions and such self-control, but it does not mean that

Children and grandchildren can also think this way, how difficult is it to limit oneself?"

"Father, although it is difficult, people have to come up with solutions after all. The child is still young, and with your father by your side, I will definitely be able to find a suitable path."

The father and son just stood on the Yanmen Fortress, facing the bright moonlight, chatting without a word. The surrounding officers and soldiers of the Zhenfu Army, as well as the civil and military personnel accompanying them, also silently and loyally

The earth is by your side.

Whether it is Xue Ju who is far away in Longxi, or Li Gui, or the small imperial court in Guanzhong who still regards himself as Zhengshuo of the Great Sui Dynasty, or the Li Mi who is currently living in the Eastern Capital.

Almost all the powerful people in the Central Plains have received news that the overlord of the grasslands, Shibi Khan of the Turks, personally led the main Turkic army southward to seize the land of Shanxi.

Li Mi laughed endlessly in the palace of Dongdu. After that, he would climb the wall in the north of the city every day and look to the north from a distance. Only close officials like Bing Yuanzhen would hear Li Mi's words by chance.

An emperor of the Wei Dynasty occasionally talked to himself.

He knew very well how much his Majesty wished that Yang Qian, the leader of the Zhenfu Army, would be defeated by the Turks. It would be best to be directly captured and killed by the Turks' Shibi Khan. In this way, the Zhenfu Army, which already occupies most of the world, would be defeated.

The Fujun system will inevitably collapse.

Sitting on the favorable geographical location of the Central Plains, he could take advantage of the opportunity to use gentle methods to absorb it for his own use. Therefore, Li Mi really wished he could put his wings on his back and go to the northwest to see the battle situation in person, and he also wished that Yang Qian would finish it as soon as possible.

With the same thoughts, there are Xue Ju, Li Gui, Liang Shi and other powerful people in the northern part of the Central Plains. But those who are more urgent than them are those who have given up all their wealth and can only hug Shibi Khan's thigh tightly.

Dou Jiande.

During this trip south, Dou Jiande also carefully reminded Shibi Khan that the cavalry of the Suppression and Fu Army were very powerful, and their cavalry and shooting skills were even more terrifying.

As a result, Shibi Khan and some Turkic civil and military officials were very displeased, thinking that he was looking down on the hundreds of thousands of grassland athletes who had been riding horses since childhood.

Dou Jiande could only shut up obediently, but looking at the faces of these Turkic barbarians roaming the grassland, Dou Jiande had an ominous premonition in his heart...

Three days later, the Turkic army in Qifupo finally began to move, and the troops divided into three groups and headed south. Shibi Khan personally led 100,000 elite cavalry, pointing directly at Baishan Mountain.

The other two roads covered the two wings of Shibi Khan's army. It can be said that in addition to the 780,000 or 80,000 rear troops stationed at Qifupo, nearly 250,000 Turkic troops came towards Baishan Mountain with murderous intent...
