The Turkic messenger sent by Temujin was named Dong Xin. He was originally a county official in Mayi County. In his early years, he followed Liu Wuzhou and Zhao Kuangyin to occupy the northern part of Bingzhou. After Li Shimin defeated Zhao Kuangyin, he followed Zhao Kuangyin to defect to the Turks. During this period, he believed that Zhao Kuangyin was gone and there would be no more When he was able to recover, he took the opportunity to break away from Zhao Kuangyin, and was later taken into the account of Kublai Khan, who supported Chineseization.
In order to prevent the real situation in Yanmen City from being leaked, Dong Xin was covered with black cloth and tied up since he entered the city. He was also pushed and pushed by many jealous Sui soldiers along the way. His resentment was completely eliminated after seeing Yang Gao. burst out.
"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Southern Sui Dynasty, now you are trapped in the encirclement of millions of our Turkic troops. How can a mere Yanmen Pass wall stop millions of iron hooves? If you know this, and quickly open the city and surrender, the Great Khan is kind and can protect your future. If not, when the city is destroyed, no chickens or dogs will be left behind!"
"Cut it down!"
Yang Gao didn't even raise his eyelids and said indifferently.
Dong Xingyan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he heard wrongly. But the imperial guards waiting outside heard what was happening and without any hesitation, they immediately stepped forward to hold Dong Xin down, dragged his arms and walked out.
"The two countries are at war, Buza is here to envoy! The two countries are at war, Buzai is here to envoy!"
Dong Xin was so frightened that he screamed at Yang Gao while struggling.
"Two countries, where did two countries come from?"
Yang Gao sneered and said: "The Turks are no more than vassals of our Sui Dynasty. When can we be on equal footing with our Sui Dynasty? As for you, you are a traitor who has forgotten his ancestors. No one in your Sui Dynasty can catch you! Drag him up and chop him down." Now, hang my head under the city wall!"
"Chang Aiqing, I will leave the defense of Yanmen City to him!"
There were only a few junior Sui ministers in the government office, and we were all insiders in the matter of brother Yang Gao, so we all nodded in agreement.

Kublai Khan took a deep breath to calm down the anger in his chest, and then he said: "Grandpa, General Geshu sent a secret letter, saying that I am just a surrendered general who has the full trust of the Sui army. Now it is very difficult." It is difficult to get close to the city gate, but I will find a way to support you in the city, please wait for the opportunity."
Shu Han nodded, then turned to Yuwen Chengdu and said: "Chengdu, ask my brother, General Yang Gao, to write another letter to tell Chang Yuchun that I am just a new general and I can gain my trust. Is there any way Close to the city gate. I will definitely find a way to coordinate within the city, please Chang Yuchun and wait for the opportunity."
Before Dong Xin's head was hung at the gate of Yanmen City, Chang Yuchun was furious when he heard the news. He angrily yelled filial piety in the king's tent: "Shu Han, you are so polite. The Han people often say that when the two countries are at war, they will be killed. Is it an envoy? I, the majestic emperor, dare to openly kill your envoy, do I care at all what the intellectuals think of me? "
Before the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army walked away, Liu Bowen, the important minister of the Sui Dynasty, said hastily: "In my humble opinion, Chang Yuchun, a traitor who knows life and death, turned out to be a false shot. My real purpose is completely unknown." Maybe I’m trying to trick you into letting down your guard so you can secretly contact insiders.”
Shu Han smiled calmly and said: "All the soldiers and horses in Yanmen City, including my Imperial Forest Army, are at his disposal, and my safety is also at his disposal!"
After a pause, Chang Yuchun continued: "Zhai Ju killed your envoy. If this revenge were to be revenged, wouldn't it make the heroes in the sky look down upon him and send an order to beat the drum and gather the generals!"
"I want the general to retaliate with death. I want the general to live. I want to drink and talk with the general and share the peaceful and prosperous age!"
"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty!"
When Zhao Kuangyin heard this, his heart suddenly warmed up, and he said solemnly: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's expectations."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Chang Yuchun nodded anxiously after hearing this: "What General Geshu said in his letter is indeed consistent with common sense. Shu Han will definitely believe these newcomers when your army is surrounded by heavy troops. In this case, he ordered Wanyan Zonghan to give up the raid. plan of."
"As you command!"
winter! winter! winter!
If the few imperial guardsmen had not hesitated just now, when they saw Zhai Ju, they showed a clear attitude and used all their strength to drag Dong Xin far away in the blink of an eye, leaving only me screaming at the top of my lungs.
The first team to attack the city was commanded by Turkic generals A Shu and Shu Hu Di Qi, with a strength of less than 20,000. This is the same as the Turkic siege method in the past. In the past, the Turkic army always consisted of the surrendered Han army as the first group. It cleared obstacles for the retreat of the previous army and at the same time weakened the defenders' energy. But today, because of one When the Turkic generals learned that Shu Han had beheaded his envoy and hung his head under the wall, they were furious. They all felt extremely humiliated and asked Chang Yuchun to fight. Zhai Juguang also wanted to get rid of everyone's bad intentions and changed his past habits. "It's just that I never thought that my so-called inside story would be His Majesty's bait to throw me away from the very beginning."
Shu Han smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "I decided to act like this at first, but after thinking about it, I realized that it was appropriate. Once the Turkic army was ambushed, Zhai Juguang must have understood that several letters from General Yang Gao were to lure the enemy. As a plan, I will lead the army north immediately. The two small armies of Generals Han Xin and Fu Youde are still marching and have not yet reached their destination. The Turkic army is moving quickly, and I am worried that we will run to Han and Fu. Behind the general, your army’s encirclement plan will fall short!”

Zhao Kuangyin looked excited, and immediately stepped out of the queue, clasped his fists, and said: "As long as I am not breathing, I will definitely let the Turks take a step back into Yanmen City."
After listening to Shu Han's analysis, several important civil and military ministers nodded in agreement.
At dawn the next day, accompanied by the vigorous and exciting sound of war drums, the small Turkic army shina headed towards Yanmen Pass with flags fluttering and spears like a forest, and the small army as far as the eye could see was filled with murderous intent.
Kublai Khan also had an angry look on his face. When I learned that Shu Han had beheaded his envoy, I also received a letter from my brother Yang Gao.
Another important minister, Fang Xuanling, also said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I think I can ask General Ge Zhaiju to write a letter and shoot it to the city, agree on a time to open the city gate, and then put a cloth at the city gate. If we ambush our troops, we will definitely be able to capture and kill seventeen important Turkic generals, which will only dampen the morale of the Turks."
"Your Majesty."
Zhai Ju walked up the steps, supported Zhai Juguang and said seriously.
Chang Yuchun, surrounded by many timid men, rushed out of the battle, drew his sword from its sheath and shouted in a hissing voice: "The first team to attack the city!"
"Wrong or wrong!"
"The reason why I ordered people to kill this thief is because I hate his dereliction of duty and treason. More importantly, I want to use the head of that thief to anger Chang Yuchun, and use the Yanmen city defense to drag down the morale of the Turkic army. I give you Xiao Sui Li's army is now more certain of winning with one blow."
