The inner city wall of Fangyang City has been taken down. From a high position, the Han cavalry naturally has no advantage. At present, Fangyang City is only a layer of window paper away from being taken down.

Naturally, the purpose of Qi Xingyun's personal visit to Fangyang City was not to cause trouble for Luo Fengtang.

He was sitting cross-legged on the wall of the outer city. The inner city, the urn city and the outer city wall were all soldiers of Da Qi, so there was no need to worry about safety.

Of course, he also followed Luo Fengtang's suggestion and did not go to the inner city wall.

Fangyang City was built on the hillside, and the wind was very strong, making Qi Xingyun's clothes rustle. However, the generals in front of them had wine and food on their desks, but no one used their chopsticks.

The emperor obviously has something to say.

From the outer city, Qi Xingyun could see the panic on the faces of the people and soldiers in the inner city. They built simple defenses using bricks, stones and branches on the roadside.

But these fortifications are actually insignificant in the eyes of the Qi people and the Han people.

Because Da Qi's chariots will crush them all and occupy the entire Fangyang City.

Qi Xingyun looked at the panic of the people in the inner city and said: "This is how Emperor Taizong sat at the top of the northern city. The situation I am sitting at the head of Fangyang City today is very similar."

"Emperor Taizong had already arrived near the boundary river in the north."

Qi Xingyun smiled and told the generals about the past events, but no one dared to answer the question. This was the emperor's family matter, and the Battle of the Boundary River was also a shame for the Qi Dynasty. No one mentioned it on weekdays.

Qi Xingyun looked at Luo Fengtang who was hesitant to speak. He smiled and shook his head and said, "When the Southern Tang Dynasty surrendered, Emperor Taizong went north to conquer the Liao Kingdom."

"We crossed the mountain on May 12th, and all the east and west lines were in place."

"On June 13th, all the arsenals, weapons, food and grass were transported to the front line. On the same day, they crossed the river and entered the Liao border, and the attack officially began."

"On that day, several states in Liao surrendered to the Qi army."

"The North Road covers nine states in total, and the two states go down in one day."

"On June 17, the troops of the Da Qi army arrived at Shahe. In a hasty encounter, our Da Qi soldiers fought bravely. The vanguard army fought with the Liao army as a group. The rear army arrived shortly after and did not stop and went straight into the battlefield.

The Liao army was defeated, five thousand were killed in formation, and more than five hundred of the enemy were surrendered."

"At this time, the Privy Council came up with a plan to use green banners to pretend to be the Liao army, contain the defeated army to lure the enemy, hunt and kill the Liao army, and kill thousands more. Our Qi army will be in great shape."

"On June 19, Emperor Taizong led his troops to Liaojing. In front of the city that was surrounded for thirty-six miles, the Liao people led 20,000 people in the city to surrender to our Qi army. The situation was excellent."

"From June 25th to June 30th, the Qi army ascended the city at night, and the west wall of Liaojing was broken. Emperor Taizong and the generals also sat on the top of the city like me, drinking heavily with the generals.

"

Qi Xingyun slowly and forcefully said what he wanted to say, while all the generals sat in front of the table without saying a word.

"Is it similar to the current attack on Fangyang? The people who were guarding the four walls of Fangyang City surrendered, and our Qi army climbed onto the west gate of the city, and logically captured the outer city, the urn city, and the inner city."

Qi Xingyun pointed at the frightened people in the inner city and said.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, this time it will definitely not be like a hundred years ago." Jiang Wulang couldn't help shouting loudly.

Luo Fengtang was seated closest to Jiang Wulang, who was in the first place. He moved his feet and kicked Jiang Wulang at a strange angle.

Jiang Wulang stared at Luo Fengtang, his eyes seeming to say, General, why are you kicking me?

Luo Fengtang pretended to tidy up his clothes and ignored Jiang Wulang's eyes.

Qi Xingyun sat high up and naturally had a panoramic view of all this. He laughed and said, "Generals, please relax. Today is not about a drinking ceremony to relieve military power!"

"On July 1, the Privy Councilor and others successfully captured the inner city, and started fighting for the inner city with the generals in the city."

"On July 6, the Liao Kingdom's foreign reinforcements arrived. Emperor Taizong personally led the troops and defeated the enemy outside the boundary river. They pursued for more than ten miles, leaving thousands of Liao army corpses behind."

"Until now, no one thought that the Daqi army would lose."

"But in the evening, the enemy army suddenly led its troops into the Daqi military camp from a small road. They rushed straight to the camp with torches. The enemy general gathered the remaining soldiers and defeated the generals. They fought against the Qi army for several rounds. He was wounded three times and was bleeding profusely. Especially

Fight hard and never retreat."

"Emperor Taizong got separated from his generals and headed south in a hurry. Then he stopped his carriage and watched the battle."

"In the Battle of Jiehe, Emperor Taizong personally led an army of 160,000 people. Only more than 10,000 people were killed or injured, and the camp was completely defeated. The victory turned into a rout. The life of the orphaned and widowed Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom was very difficult.

Because of this great victory, our power has become more stable."

Qi Xingyun said with a smile: "Generals, what I said is clearly recorded in official history. Where do you think the battle of Jiehe was defeated?"

Jiang Wulang glanced at Luo Fengtang and suppressed his words. The generals were unwilling to say more, but it was obvious what went wrong in the entire Northern Expedition.

"I have done everything I have to do. I give out rewards for each battle. I personally supervise them with the officers. General Luo personally goes to each camp to distribute the rewards to ensure that the rewards are in the hands of each soldier."

"Although there were some disturbances in the matter of food and grass, it ended with the lives of King Zun and his family and King Wei being detained in Dali Temple."

"The siege missions brought the Sky-Thundering Thunder and Shenwei Zhenyuan Cannon. The power is obvious to all. Not only the Han people, but even I was dizzy from the bombardment."

"What I said so much is actually to tell you generals that I am determined to win and do not want to make the same mistakes again."

"I don't want to lose!"

Half of those who have traveled a hundred miles are ninety. Faced with the imminent victory, Qi Xingyun said he would not panic, but that would be a lie.

When Taizong of Qi personally went on the Northern Expedition, before the evening of July 6th, who saw the possibility of failure?

But they were defeated in such a confused way, more than 10,000 people died, and the 200,000-strong army collapsed, causing the Eastern Front battlefield to be implicated as well.

Qi Xingyun was very unwilling to see the moment when he was defeated, which meant that he could no longer do whatever he wanted like now and had to compromise with reality. By then, it would be a fool's errand to try to take Fang Yang.

Qi Xingyun, he really doesn’t want to lose.

In fact, he has recently sensed some arrogance in Da Qi's army. Although Qi Xingyun himself is a military blind man, he still knows the saying that arrogant soldiers will be defeated.

It is normal for Da Qi's army to be a little arrogant because of their successive victories, and he was not willing to interfere with Luo Fengtang's command.

A proud soldier must have a commendable record to become proud.

"Although I am not familiar with military affairs, I have been inspecting the military camp many times recently and found that some soldiers have been in and out of the logistics, and even used gunpowder for firearms to twist fireworks. Does General Luo know about this?" Qi Xingyun put it down.

Cha Zhan asked.
