Let's say that Wang Ke and Xin Wenli captured Yinlingchuan. While they were resting their troops and horses, they wrote letters to inform their backer Wang Yang Lin.
Within a few days.
Yang Lin sent a reply.
The letter first encouraged Wang Ke and Xin Wenli, and then asked them to leave some soldiers and horses to garrison Guancheng, while the other troops came to gather outside Yema River and jointly attack Yema River.
"How come a man like Yuwen Chengdu hasn't conquered Yema River yet?"
Wang Ke felt strange after reading the letter, so he asked the messenger.
This messenger was Yang Lin's confidant and knew a lot about military affairs.
He slightly cupped his hands and replied: "General Yuwen's attack on Yema River was originally very smooth, but he encountered a side attack on the way, and then he was blocked outside Yema River and stagnated."
"Another heresy?"
When Xin Wenli heard this, he frowned slightly and said.
"In this northern land, there are a lot of people who drink hair and drink blood. They are quite warlike, and they often worship evil gods, so there are often heretics coming and going."
Wang Ke nodded and explained to Xin Wenli.
Speaking of which.
He turned to the messenger and said: "Please also pay homage to the patron king. We will leave one thousand soldiers and horses to guard the Yinling River, and the remaining nine thousand soldiers and horses will set off tomorrow to meet at the Yema River!"
"yes!"
Upon hearing this, the messenger slightly bowed his hands to Wang Ke and Xin Wenli, and then left quickly.
There was nothing to say all night, so I won’t express it for now.
The next day.
Wang Ke and Xin Wenli only left a thousand troops to defend the city.
The remaining nearly 9,000 men and horses were neatly dressed, and together with Wang Ke and Xin Wenli, they ran all the way to the northwest, heading towards the Yema River.
…
We were on the road for two days.
this day.
It was around noon.
The soldiers and horses had just turned around a gentle slope.
I saw smoke and dust rising in front of me.
The red military flags are flying in the air, which is very eye-catching.
Wang Ke took a closer look and saw that Yang Lin had arrived with the main army.
Encountered Yang Lin's soldiers and horses.
Wang Ke and Xin Wenli, as subordinates, naturally wanted to go to meet each other.
Not long after.
The two groups of soldiers and horses converged.
Wang Ke and Xin Wenli came to the Central Army and met with their backer Wang Yang Lin.
Yang Lin smiled brightly, looked at the two of them, and said with a smile: "I already know that the attack on Yema River requires both of you to work hard."
"We will obey the prince's order!"
Wang Ke and Xin Wenli both raised their hands and said.
after.
Wang Ke asked about the battle situation in Yema River.
Yang Lin said: "When I followed Taizu (Yang Zhong) in his expedition to the north, I knew that there were many left-behind people in the north, and I didn't want them to appear so soon."
"I wonder what kind of heretical person you are?"
Wang Ke was a little curious and asked.
Yang Lin said: "There is more than one leftist scholar in Yema River, but three senior brothers. The first one is called Venerable Kusong, his senior brother; the second one is named Taoist Feitong; the third one is named Taoist Feitong. It’s Monk Tiezhi.”
"A venerable, a Taoist, and a monk are all fellow disciples, but they are indeed heretics."
When Wang Ke heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said.
Yang Lin said sternly: "Although these people are heretics, their skills are quite strong. We must be more careful when we go on an expedition."
Speaking of which.
Yang Lin then told everyone how Yuwen Chengdu suffered a setback.
…
turn out to be.
After receiving the military order from Chengdu, Yu Wen set up camp that night and headed for Yema River.
He went on this expedition with only five generals.
They are Yuwen Jinling, the adopted son of Yu Wenhuaji, and the four heroes he conquered while traveling around the world - Deng Tianqing, Xin Wenzhong, Zhang Yunting, and Tao Zhenjie.
at this time.
As a first-time pioneer.
Yuwen Chengdu relied on his skills and seemed to have a winning chance.
He carried the gilded phoenix-winged boring machine in front of him and marched all the way. After only three to five days' journey, he arrived at the foot of Yema River.
Yema River is different from Jinling River and Yinling River.
The terrain here is complex, with several ravines to the south, all of which are easy to defend but difficult to attack.
That's why.
The defender of Yema River, Chi Jinbulu, arranged several clumps of soldiers and horses to block the Sui army.
And now.
The first troops and horses stood in front of Yuwen Chengdu and others.
The general in charge of this group of soldiers and horses is named Chili Huabao, and the four lieutenants under him are called Chilihuadong, Chilihuaxi, Chilihuanan, and Chilihuabei.
These five people are brothers. They are all highly skilled in martial arts and are famous in the Northern Kingdom.
at this time.
They heard that the Sui army was coming.
Immediately, he fired up three thousand cavalry and came outside the camp, preparing to intercept and kill Yuwen Chengdu.
but.
How can these people be Yuwen Chengdu's opponents?
The first confrontation between the two armies.
Yuwen Chengdu held a gilded phoenix-winged boring machine, rode a thousand-mile yellow flower horse, and ran in front of the soldiers and horses.
The weapon flew in his palm, and with just one glance, Chilihuanan and Chilihuabei were killed on the spot.
The other three were startled when they saw such a scene and subconsciously retreated back.
However, Yuwen Chengdu rode up to catch up, and in the first charge, he knocked Chili Huabao, Chili Huadong, and Chili Huaxi off their horses.
Since then, the first line of defense has been smashed by Yuwen Chengdu.
Immediately afterwards.
Yuwen Chengdu is non-stop.
He led the army forward.
Quickly reach the second line of defense.
Not surprisingly, this line of defense was also penetrated by Yuwen Chengdu, and several generals guarding the second line of defense were naturally killed by Yuwen Chengdu.
Along the way.
Yuwen Chengdu beheaded the generals and seized the flag, killing eighteen generals and assistants of the Northern Liao Kingdom in succession, and marched directly to the foot of Yema River.
Among Yema River's last line of defense, Chi Jinbulu frowned slightly when he heard about this.
But, right now.
The three heretical people came floating in the air.
Among the three people, the Taoist Feidian was Chi Jinbulu's master.
He received Chijinbulu's letter and came with his two senior brothers at starry night.
After the three of them heard about Yuwen Chengdu's prowess, Taoist Feidian laughed and said, "This man is just a brave man. Let me use my magic weapon to win!"
Chi Jinbulu quickly asked what the magic weapon was.
Taoist Feidian smiled and said nothing.
The next day.
Taoist Feidian led five hundred soldiers and horses to fight.
On the opposite side, Yuwen Chengdu was carrying a gilded phoenix-winged boring machine and led his generals to form a formation to meet the enemy.
Taoist Feitun saw that Yuwen Chengdu was young and well-dressed, so he thought he was just a kid from a rich family, so he immediately began to ridicule him.
Yuwen Chengdu was furious and was about to ride his horse to fight.
Yuwen Jinling on the side raised his hands and said: "Young Master has been very tired in the past few days. Please rest for a while. I am willing to kill this thief and offer him to the Young Master!"
Say it.
He lifted up the turtle's back to shake the sky, rode a mottled jade flower, and galloped out to the front of the formation.
The two generals met.
Taoist Feidian sneered and said nothing. He drove his horse away and took his sword to Yuwen Jinling.
Yuwen Jinling was not weak in martial arts. With a loud shout, he shook the turtle's back in his palm and struck it towards Taoist Feidian's head.
He used a long sword and Taoist Fei Miao used a short sword. The two fought for about five or six rounds. Taoist Fei Miao was no match. He feinted with his sword, turned around and ran away.
When Yuwen Jinling saw this, he didn't know what the plan was and just rode his horse to catch up.
Taoist Feidian saw Yuwen Jinling chasing after him, and laughed in his heart: "This guy should die here!"
This is the thought.
Taoist Feidian turned around suddenly.
His left sleeve suddenly bulged, and a black ball flew out from it, hitting the door of Yuwen Jinling who was pursuing him.
Suddenly.
He beat a fierce general from the Sui Dynasty until his brains burst, he fell off his horse and died.
