Xu Yunyan let Yang Xi and Yang Zhengdao go to recapture Jianglong Ridge, but he couldn't help but think about how to arrange the subordinates he brought in the city lord's mansion where they handled government affairs, so that they could be twisted into a rope for more work. Good against the incoming Count Augustine.
After defeating Count Austadin, Xu Yunyan wanted to take his younger brothers on the way home. But he couldn't leave all his brothers at the scene just for the sake of this woman whom he said he knew, or who might have some ulterior motives.
They also have families and relatives who are waiting for their return.
It wasn't that Xu Yunyan suddenly realized his conscience, but the enthusiastic people in Dilongling reminded him of his tribe and his relatives. He even looked at those simple people who couldn't help congratulating themselves, and then talked to him. My family was together in harmony, and I was a little moved by the soldier's hopeful eyes.
They just want to be reunited with their loved ones.
After Xu Yunyan watched these people behave like this, the idea of taking them back came into his mind, and it became more and more intense.
He also missed his relatives.
In this way, Xu Yunyan was thinking about how to save their side and what kind of method he should use to eliminate the one who knew Count Augustine.
Xu Yunyan was thinking about his own affairs, while Yang Zhengdao had already led people to attack the last piece of Long Zitou's territory.
The owner of the territory, Viscount Dalong, is an existence beyond everyone’s imagination.
Only now did they figure out that one of the five territories with dragons was the territory of Viscount Dalong, and the area of Jianglong Ridge was more than twice that of other territories such as Evil Dragon Ridge. There was not only a viscount, but also a baron, and many knights.
But no matter how many of them there were, they were still vulnerable to the magnificent elite of the Sui Dynasty.
Maybe it was because Yang Xi and others were showing off their muscles, or maybe because Xu Yunyan and the others were too powerful. After the entire Dalong Viscount territory was occupied, Count Austinine did not attack them immediately. Instead, he gathered people. This gave Yang Xi and the others time to develop.
With enough time, Xu Yunyan, Yang Xi, Yang Zhengdao and others gathered together, looking at the improvised sand table in front of them, constantly studying where Count Austantin's soldiers and horses were and how they would act. How to deal with it, etc.
This delay lasted for half a month, and during this half month, people in other places were not silent.
Changsun Chong, Zhao Dong, and Sun Xiaoning were indeed anxious to find Xu Yunyan. They quickly headed north. Although they did not find their tribe or meet up with their tribe, they kept asking the merchants they met along the way. The team got some incredible news.
A Han-looking team headed west.
"Oh? Still heading west?"
After receiving this piece of news, Changsun Chong looked at the scout who reported to him in confusion.
"Wait a minute, what did you just say about a group of Han caravans? Is there any mistake? Our general seems to be a Han, and this Han group should not be the same group as Master."
Changsun Chong raised his doubts, and Zhao Dong scratched his head.
"But according to the images drawn by these businessmen, one of them seems to be our general."
"What? Our master? What's going on? And where did he find the caravan?"
However, Changsun Chong asked Zhao Dong. Zhao Dong didn't know what to say to him for a moment, but Sun Xiaoning did get the chance to say it again.
"Actually, there is another point that needs to be noted. Although this team is a Han team, there are many faces that are different from Han people, and they are all cavalry. According to their description, they are wearing black clothes. The armor, and those who can come to such a place wearing black armor, I believe it is the people of our tribe who have left. To attract the enemy's firepower so that the tribe can continue to live a stable life. The men and horses led by the husband who never stop fighting."
When Sun Xiaoning said this, these people scratched their heads in disbelief.
"Then what should we do now?
? Should we continue heading west to search for this team? Or should we head north again to join your tribe? "
After Zhang Sun Chong asked this question as the backbone, Zhao Dong supported heading west again to search for this caravan without even thinking about it.
As for Sun Xiaoning, it was difficult to make a decision at first. He looked to the north for a while, which should be the direction of his tribe, and then looked to the west for the place that this team was looking for.
This tangle came and went, and finally I gritted my teeth.
"I also support going west to find this caravan first. Our original tribe should be safe after changing places. As for your team, since they are going west with the Han people, they must have encountered something. It’s a difficult problem, otherwise, since he still has the cavalry when he returns home, why wouldn’t he come back with them?”
Although Sun Xiaoning's guess was inaccurate, it was not far from the truth.
Chang Sun Chong and Zhao Dong looked at each other.
"Okay, let's continue heading west."
It's just that Xiangxi is a bit beyond everyone's expectations. The further west you go, the more small city-states with small countries and few people appear. And when they see such a large cavalry team, they can't help but gallop westward, but they are frightened.
"Where does this super strength come from? Look at how many knights there are here, and there are actually so many knights' retinues riding war horses behind them. This doesn't look like something we can fight against."
A nobleman standing on the top of the city came to the top of the city after his younger brother reported it and saw such a scene. He couldn't help but said in fear.
And the little brother next to him, those losers who followed him to eat and drink and live their lives, wanted this nobleman to go and ask for help, but looking at so many majestic knights, of course this knight must be wearing a Tiance Guard. The unique armored Tiance Guards, as for the knight servants they call, they are the Turkic cavalry. Moreover, these Turkic cavalry are more numerous than the cavalry of Tiance Guard, and their armor is not as gorgeous as theirs. Isn't this just a knight's retinue?
Thousands of knights and nearly ten thousand knight retinues appeared under a small city. The nobles of this small city looked at the army outside the city that was larger than their own population. They didn't know what to make for a moment. Standing on the top of the city like that.
Fortunately, his younger brother was able to react and hurriedly asked the city lord what should we do next, what is next, what can we do. As a noble here, the baron didn't know what to do.
We stood stupidly on the top of the city, allowing the enemy to attack us. However, the more these people were trembling in fear on the top of the city, the less they knew what to do, and the more they delayed, even their nobles The younger brothers who were also looking at him from the top of the city didn't react, and they didn't know what to make for a moment.
However, this man remained silent on the top of the city. There were indeed many soldiers showing off their power below the city.
Changsun Chong and Zhao Dong looked at the stunned city. There was still no movement after they appeared. Moreover, this small city was just a small nail for them, and it was not as majestic as the Tang Dynasty. A city with sufficient soldiers, with the manpower I have now, can easily break it even without siege equipment.
Then he waved his hand and said, "Go and ask a few people about the meaning of the city. We are just borrowing a way, not trying to embarrass them."
As soon as Changsun Chong finished making arrangements, Zhao Dong nodded hurriedly and rode forward, which shocked Changsun Chong.
"Zhao Dong, what are you doing? How can you go in person? Just let a few soldiers go there in person. What if you go in person? What if they fight back?"
When Zhao Dong heard Chang Sun Chong's words of concern for him, he turned around and grinned.
"General Changsun, what's there to worry about? I just went to the top of the city to shout and shout. Let them know what choice they should make. Didn't you also tell them at the same time? We are just borrowing the road, and we are not here to attack their city. , why do they need to be so frightened?"
Zhao Dong replied and moved forward again, but Changsun Chong couldn't watch Zhao Dong move forward alone without saying anything, so he waved hurriedly.
"Let's go to a group of people, no matter what
General Zhao cannot be allowed to have any accidents. "
The four generals under Xu Yunyan are all treasures. Although Xu Yunyan is no longer here, these people still respect their deeds. Those who can be recognized by Xu Yunyan under Xu Yunyan and rank among the four generals are all the future of the Tang Dynasty. A general star cannot suffer any loss under such circumstances.
After Chang Sun Chong spoke, the Tiance Guards under Zhao Dong's command hurriedly sent out two hundred people to guard Zhao Dong forward, and these two hundred people marched at the same time, allowing the people on the top of the city to finally react.
"It's bad, they actually sent out so many knights, many, many more knights than we have ever seen."
More than two hundred knights came to the city in a majestic manner. Zhao Dong led the way and shouted something. However, Zhao Dong forgot that even if he could speak Turkic, Tubo and Chinese, he had no problem. , but these alien words are still a bit difficult for him.
However, this man was chirping and shouting something, but the nobles on the top of the city were even more unable to react.
However, seeing Zhao Dong holding his hand and pointing to himself and the city, the nobleman on the city side seemed to suddenly realize.
"I understand, this general below the city is here to persuade you to surrender."
This was beyond everyone's expectation.
"How do you know that he is here to persuade you to surrender?"
The younger brother next to him was very confused and didn't know what was going on. However, although they were not clear, their nobles had said so. They were thinking about the scene in front of them based on what the nobles said and looked at what was happening in front of them. He was pointing at his own army, and at the general who couldn't stop writing at the top of the city. Isn't this an obvious meaning?
He may be saying, look at how strong my men are, and pointing to the top of our city. His meaning is even simpler, look at how many people are on top of your city.
Then he pointed at his own camp, we people can drown you with just a spit of spit. Won't you surrender?
Isn’t this just to persuade you to surrender?
If Zhao Dong knew, he kept gesticulating here, our group of people do not have any hostility towards the people on top of your city, it’s just that our group of people came here to borrow the road from you to pass by. .
The language barrier is such a problem. If the two sides are evenly matched, there might even be a fight. The nobles present did not have the guts to be enemies with Changsun Chong.
Since they were here to persuade them to surrender, with this idea in mind, the noble looked around.
"Bros."
This was a rare occasion for him to address his younger brother with an honorific title, which made the younger brothers in front of him even more delighted.
"I don't know what your orders are, sir?"
"Do you think we can hold the city?"
The noble issued the most serious soul torture, and everyone in front of them spread their hands, looking like it was impossible and they didn't know how to do it.
