Chapter 191: Good news spreads to Kyoto
"It's outrageous!"
Akisa shouted loudly, extremely angry.
He is a Khitan general, how could he surrender to foreign enemies and become a traitor who sells the country and seeks honor?
The prisoner who was released saw that he was so angry, and hurriedly said, "General, we are just passing messages and have not surrendered to the Sui Dynasty. Please give a clear explanation!"
Akisa waved his hand and asked the soldiers to take the group down.
"I want to see how you attack the city!" Akisa was determined, as if she wanted to survive and die with Fuyu City.
The prisoners who were released returned to the military camp and were temporarily placed, without giving them weapons, and no restrictions on their personal freedom were restricted.
These prisoners were originally Khitans. Many Khitan soldiers heard that they had survived, so they came to care about the situation of the Sui soldiers.
At this time, the role of teaching them is revealed.
"The Sui people are too fierce. I have seen a general from Sui State split a huge rock with his palm!"
"I also saw a young man with a fair face and looks like a handsome young man, who actually shot through the big tree in his arms!"
"The Sui soldiers outside were just pioneers, and it is said that there were hundreds of thousands of troops behind them! Our Khitan plotted against the Sui Kingdom and failed to capture Huangya Pass. If the Sui Kingdom wanted to take revenge, it must seize Fuyu City to eliminate the hatred in his heart."
"They said they would seize Fuyu City at any cost, and they also said that they could let go of the people of Fuyu City, but they would kill all the soldiers of Fuyu City!"
"I have also heard that I want to avenge the Sui soldiers in Songmo City!"
...
These Khitan soldiers were frightened by Han Qinhu. Luo Cheng was so scared that he saw his compatriots at this time, and naturally revealed his bitterness.
And these words spread in the military camps and were talking about them.
Within a few days, even the people in the city heard about it.
Can you let the people go? But kill all the soldiers?
Believe it or not, if the rumors spread, it will cause a certain panic in the hearts of the Khitan people. Akisa noticed it, and it was too late to stop it.
On the other side, the eight thousand iron cavalry did run towards the Khitan royal family, but they just wanted to lead Xiao Guang away. After Xiao Guang left, they changed their direction and hunted the scouts who were following him. So Xiao Guang didn't know where these iron cavalry were going, so he could only continue to rush to the royal capital.
The Iron Cavalry did not go to the capital, and after a few rounds, he returned to Fuyu City and stationed in the west.
Just as Yang Shuang was planning to take down Fuyu City, the situation in Huangya Pass changed again.
Yelu Shanxiu, the King of the West Court of Khitan, stopped his strong attack. He had lost 80,000 or 90,000 troops and all died.
As more and more Sui soldiers supported Huangya Pass, Yelu Shanxiu completely lost the opportunity to seize Huangya Pass, and he was a little panicked and had to leave. Because Xiao Guang and the Turks' plan to encircle and suppress the Sui army also ended with a tragic victory, and the eight thousand iron cavalry of Mingguang Hou joined the battle, and he was afraid that his subsequent army would attack.
If you don’t leave now, you won’t be able to leave if you want to.
Therefore, Yelu Shanxiu ordered people to secretly rectify their troops and prepare to leave here.
However, Yelu Shanxiu was not only facing Hou Wenshan, but also Li Jing.
Li Jing was called the God of War. Through Yelu Shanxiu's military use, he could guess his inner changes and knew that he was going to escape, so he found the right time and immediately launched a counterattack.
The order to retreat had been issued, and the Khitan soldiers were at a low morale and morale. Just as they were packing their bags, the soldiers of the Great Sui army came over.
The Khitan soldiers hurriedly fought, while the soldiers of the Great Sui Dynasty were full of fighting spirit.
One rises and the other falls, so the result can be imagined.
The Khitan was defeated, and Yelu Shanxiu fled north in a hurry. The Sui soldiers kept chasing him. It was not until Yelu Shanxiu fled to Liaocheng Prefecture that he had a chance to breathe.
However, before Yelu Shanxiu took a breath, bad news came from the west.
The generals under Mingguang Hou sent his command to capture Rao Le and was attacking Pinglu. The Khitan had limited troops in Pinglu, so he probably couldn't hold on for long, and Pinglu City would return to the hands of the Sui Dynasty.
This game of great chess was finally played, but it turned out like this. Yelu Shanxiu was so angry that he almost fainted.
Not only that, Yang Shuang, the prince of the Great Sui Dynasty, actually led his troops to Fuyu City. It can be said that Yelu Shanxiu has been encircled now. If he continues to defend Liaocheng Prefecture or Gewu City, what is waiting for him will be a dead end.
At this moment, Yelu Shanxiu made the choice he thought was the most correct and left here immediately!
However, Yelu Shanxiu did not choose to go north directly, for fear of being made of dumplings, so he chose to set off from Goryeo and return to Khitan along the east side.
This route is the safest, without defenses from the Great Sui soldiers.
With Yelu Shanxiu's departure, the pursued Sui army recovered Liaocheng Prefecture.
It can be said that from now on, the layout of Khitan has completely collapsed.
With Yelu Shanxiu's defeat, Fuyu City also received news. The people in the city were panicked and the soldiers were extremely nervous, because the revengeful Sui soldiers would definitely go north, and the next target was Fuyu City!
Therefore, the people in the city are ready to move, especially the wealthy families, who want to escape from Fuyu City.
At this moment, Yang Shuang sent Pan Cailian.
Although the walls of Fuyu City are heavily guarded, they are mostly concentrated in the south and west. As for the defense of the city gates to the north, they are a little loose.
So when he found the right time, Pan Cailian successfully sneaked into Fuyu City.
Yang Shuang sent her into the city, naturally for assassination. Pan Cailian's identity is convenient for disguise and to do things.
When she arrived in Fuyu City, Pan Cailian first became familiar with the environment, then set a fire in the north of the city, attracting the attention of the inspectors in the city. She came to Akisa's mansion and hid.
In addition to being a woman, Pan Cailian's advantage is also proficient in Khitan and Turkic languages, and these skills were learned by her for revenge.
In the second half of the night, it was ugly.
The world was dark and Akisa's mansion was also quiet. Pan Cailian had already found Akisa's bedroom, so next was a successful assassination.
Akisa died in her sleep without realizing it.
The next day, the news of Akisa's killing spread throughout the city. Everyone speculated that it was done by the Sui soldiers outside the city, but there was no evidence.
This made other generals full of concern. Akisa was killed, so who would be the next person?
A few generals who didn't want to die together encouraged the people in the city. The people immediately rushed to the north city gate. Then, in a panic, the north city gate was opened and the people came out one after another.
Once the city gate is opened, it will be difficult to seal it up. In order to survive, these Khitan people fled out and could not stop them.
And among the crowd, there were also Sui soldiers.
They took advantage of the chaos to escape. Even if the court investigated, they would say that refugees attacked the North City Gate, opened the city gate privately, and let the foreign enemies enter the city. They could not resist and could only evacuate.
Yang Shuang had prepared other plans, but she never expected that Akisa's death would cause Fuyu City to collapse instantly.
Soon, Yang Shuang understood the reason.
The Khitans do not have a sense of family and country like the Han people. It is a heritage hidden in their blood, so the Han people will sacrifice their lives to protect their inch of land.
But foreign enemies will not have such ideas!
What they abide by is survival and the prey of the weak. Even though they know that Fuyu City cannot be defended, they still stick to it. They are not stupid!
Yang Shuang immediately rushed to the north city gate, then successfully entered the city and took over the city.
There were still many Khitan people in the city. Facing the Sui soldiers rushing in, they trembled and offered their own gold and silver with both hands.
In their minds, if they become prisoners, they have to give out all their precious things.
The inheritance of culture is different.
Yang Shuang did not stop the soldiers from collecting their spoils, which they exchanged for with their lives!
After successfully occupying Fuyu City, Yang Shuang breathed a sigh of relief. Next, the situation outside the pass will be completely clear.
Three days later, the army sent by Ming Guanghou recovered Pinglu City and the army sent by Huangyaguan recovered Liao City.
Three more days later, Gewucheng was recovered.
At this point, the war outside the pass was completely resolved after more than a month.
The Great Sui Dynasty suffered nearly 100,000 troops, which was the biggest loss in many years.
Fortunately, the Khitan conspiracy was destroyed, and the Khitan also lost more than 100,000 troops. It can be said that it was a failure to steal chickens and lose rice.
As for the Turks, after the Corgida warriors, the Turkic soldiers did not participate because the Marquis of Ming Guang was eyeing him.
When all the victories were sent to Kyoto, Kyoto was in full swing.
Emperor Sui was quite shocked. He looked at the information on the good news and was stunned.
"Is this true?" asked Emperor Sui.
Shi Wansui said with a proud look on his face, "Of course it's true!"
"Didn't those soldiers deliberately give him credit to the King of Ming in order to curry favor with him?" Emperor Sui asked again.
Shi Wansui said respectfully: "Report to Your Majesty, it is a serious crime to take credit for rewards. How could Your Highness, the King of Ming know that the law is broken? I dare to use my life to guarantee that His Highness's achievements are not falsely reported! His Highness, when the soldiers of the Great Sui Dynasty were tragically slaughtered, he personally took the battle like a banner that stabilized the morale of the army, and finally turned the tide and destroyed the conspiracy between the Khitan and the Turkic alliance. Then he personally presided over the overall situation and in order to avenge the soldiers who died in battle, he led 15,000 troops to kill Fuyu City, and seized Fuyu City!"
"Okay, okay, don't praise me. If the Marquis of Mingguang sent out eight thousand iron cavalry, his life would have been gone. But, his performance was still good." Although Emperor Sui said that, his smile continued to stop and could not stop.
Everyone knows that Emperor Sui has the heart of commanding the army and is thinking about expanding territory. Unfortunately, the heavy state affairs made him unable to escape, and this wish is difficult to realize. Now, his son has fulfilled his dream for him.
Fuyu City is the largest city in the south of the Khitan. It took it and moved the border line of the Great Sui Dynasty two or three hundred miles north.
Of course, Yang Shuang is picking up bargains.
Yelu Shanxiu transferred all the troops in Fuyu City, leaving only a few thousand people. By chance, Yang Shuang took down Fuyu City. Otherwise, there would be no more than 50,000 troops.
So this is a big flaw!
Shi Wansui took advantage of the happiness of Emperor Sui and said, "Your Majesty, Marquis Ming Guang is preparing to enter the capital to apologize. He dispatched troops without receiving the order. This is a serious crime."
"If the Marquis of Mingguang had not noticed the Khitan's conspiracy, the situation on the border would be unimaginable! So why did he blame him? Shi Aiqing, all the soldiers who had made great contributions in this battle outside the pass were rewarded with great rewards, especially generals like Hou Wenshan and Zhang Kun, who must have great rewards! You can make a memorial to hand them over!" said Emperor Sui.
Shi Wansui quickly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty."
