Just when Esdoan was filled with doubts, the charge of the Kipchak soldiers on Wugang Mountain was finally repelled and defeated by the Fengwu Army. The Fengwu Army on the mountain peak cheered excitedly, which was also the interruption. Estogan's thoughts...
The excitement of the Fengwu Army on Wugang Mountain also made the faces of the Kipchak soldiers dim. Ahhejiang, a fierce general in the Kipchak Army, immediately asked Esdogan for orders:
"Great Khan, please let me lead my army in a charge! I will definitely capture these five mountains for you!"
Feeling Ahejiang's determination, Esdoan was still very satisfied. Although this Ahejiang was greedy for money and lust, which made people very angry, he was really a strong general in war. He was not afraid of death and was good at chewing hard bones. !
Although he is very satisfied with Ahejiang's attitude, Esdogan is not prepared to let Ahejiang lead his troops to attack Wugang Mountain. Although the Kipchak Tiger Division has been very fearless in the attacks in the past few days, the firearms of the Fengwu Army , and the tenacious resistance has cost the Kipchak Tiger Division nearly 2,000 casualties.
You must know that the Kipchak Tiger Division belongs to the Kipchak Khanate. It has the best equipment and the most powerful troops and horses in the Kipchak Khanate. Each of them is skilled in bow and horse, brave and fearless, and is a warrior among Kipchak warriors!
And this time, the two Tiger Divisions brought by Esdogan only amounted to more than 35,000 people. Counting the losses in the previous attack on Dagu County and those several counties, the Kipchak Tiger Division has already suffered nearly 35,000 casualties. Seven thousand people························
The casualties of these 7,000 people can be said to be very painful for Esdogan. Last year, when the decisive battle with the Luobei people took over the Western Elonqen Grassland, the Kipchak Tiger Division, as the main offensive force, only lost 5,000 people. The remaining people!
This time, the southern Zhou Dynasty has not achieved any good results, but has already lost 7,000 people. This is simply unacceptable to Esdogan!
And the most important thing is that it is still unclear whether Ye Mingsheng is really in Wugang Mountain!
If Ye Mingsheng is really in Wugang Mountain, then not to mention 7,000 casualties, even 17,000 casualties, it is very worthwhile to capture Ye Mingsheng alive, but if Ye Mingsheng is not in Wugang Mountain, then Wugang Mountain There is no such high value at all, let yourself pay such a high price to attack him!
Thinking of this, Esdoan made up his mind and immediately gave the order:
"Suspend the attack on Wugang Mountain! Surround Wugang Mountain tightly for me, and not a single Fengwu army is allowed to rush out!"
"yes!"
In the evening of the day when Esdogan stopped attacking Wugang Mountain, Ye Mingsheng in Dagu County received the news.
Looking at the news sent by the Coordination Office, Ye Mingsheng knew that Esdogan was suspicious of whether he was in Dagu County. In the past few days, Ye Mingsheng also cooperated with Ye Fu's actions and lived in seclusion in Dagu County. Almost no public appearances...
From the current point of view, the effect of Ye Fu's strategy is still very good, attracting Esdogan and the Kipchak Tiger Division to Wugang Mountain, so that they will not be able to harm the people of Yunbin.
However, as Esdogan paused his attack on Wugang Mountain, this means that the plan has entered the second stage. Now Esdogan has doubted whether he is in Wugang Mountain. If he wants to continue to be convinced, , then you have to continue to release some news to him!
Thinking of this, Ye Mingsheng also ordered someone to call Peng Le from the Hundred Households of the Coordination Office. Peng Le, who quickly received the order, appeared in front of Ye Mingsheng.
"Peng Le, a humble employee, meets the commander-in-chief!"
Ye Mingsheng nodded and signaled Peng Le to get up, then handed a letter to Peng Le and said;
"Think of some way to get this into Estogan's hands!"
Peng Le, who took the envelope after saying this, was immediately surprised. He hesitated and asked Ye Mingsheng tentatively:
"May I ask, Marshal, what is written in this letter?"
Ye Mingsheng smiled and said:
"Wugang Mountain Fengwu Army's ***, food and grass reserves, etc.!"
Peng Le was even more surprised when he heard this. Just when he was thinking about Ye Mingsheng's purpose, Ye Mingsheng said directly:
"Our army's previous actions to aid Wugang Mountain were too light, so now Esdogan is starting to become suspicious, so if you want him to continue attacking Wugang Mountain, you have to make him believe that I am still on Wugang Mountain. , and the reason why Dagu County’s rescue efforts were not strong enough is because some people in the Fengwu Army wanted to kill people with borrowed knives and did not want to see me come back alive... ·
"So in order to make me die in the hands of their Kipchaks, some people in the Fengwu Army revealed the weapons, equipment, food and other information about Wugang Mountain to their Kipchaks!"
Seeing Ye Mingsheng say this with a smile on his face, Peng Le couldn't help but swallowed. He didn't expect that things could still play out like this!
Seeing that Peng Le was a little confused, Ye Mingsheng continued to give instructions:
"That's the plan. As for how to operate it, it's up to you, Peng Le, to complete it!"
[In view of the general environment,
Peng Le nodded and said:
"I understand, Marshal! I will definitely handle things clearly!"
Ye Mingsheng was very satisfied with this answer and said immediately:
"Very good! If the plan succeeds, I will give credit to you Peng Le!"
Hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, Peng Le's eyes suddenly lit up. There have been rumors recently in the Coordination Office that because Huo San has resumed his position as director, there is now only one deputy director in the Coordination Office, Ji Xian, so the commander-in-chief wants Promote a deputy director from among the several thousand households currently in the unified coordination office.
Although this news has never been confirmed, it has never been refuted!
If I can make this contribution this time, wouldn't I be able to seize the opportunity in the next competition for deputy director?
When he thought that several colleagues would respectfully call him Director Peng, Peng Le was full of motivation. He bowed to Ye Mingsheng and said:
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, for your cultivation. I will make arrangements now!"
As soon as the words fell, Peng Le bowed and left. Ye Mingsheng frowned slightly as he watched Peng Le leave. People like Esdoan who are suspicious by nature like to believe in conspiracy theories, so this time he will definitely I will continue to take the bait and fall deeper and deeper into the trap of Wugang Mountain...

Yongliang, Jincheng
In a certain luxuriously decorated mansion, a group of Kipchak generals were sitting next to each other. Although they were gathered together, no one spoke. Everyone had a gloomy face, as if a relative at home was gone!
This is also true. Compared with the feudal system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Kipchak Khanate was still in a relatively primitive tribal system. Therefore, almost every Kipchak general was the leader of a certain tribe or a big noble. Their soldiers are members of their tribe.
In the past seven or eight days, Jincheng has encountered a fierce attack by the Fengwu Army. Under the violent bombardment of the Fengwu Army's artillery, although Jincheng is still in the hands of the Kipchaks, the Kipchaks have also paid a lot for it. Big casualties.
There were originally more than 50,000 Kipchak troops in Jincheng, but now there are more than 20,000 casualties, and even the casualties of individual soldiers and horses have exceeded 50%. Many of these casualties are from the Kipchak generals. Relatives, friends and tribesmen.
Bahat, who called everyone over for discussion, although he had not officially started the agenda, could not help but secretly sigh when he saw everyone like this!
Just when the atmosphere became increasingly dull, a young Kipchak general Gacha stood up and said:
"Master Bahat, I am the youngest one here today. If you uncles and uncles have anything to say, let me tell you..." ····》
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were attracted to Gacha, and under everyone's gaze, Gacha said in a deep voice:
"When my men went out to fight, there were 5,000 of them. Now, less than two months later, there are only 3,000 left who are still able to stand up and fight!"
"I don't know if you uncles can continue to fight, but I can't fight Gacha anymore. I am worthy of the Khanate and the Great Khan!"
"The cannons of the Fengwu Army are like fireballs in the sky. Every time they hit the city wall, the city wall trembles. This golden city cannot be defended at all!"
"My tribe and I don't want all of us to die here. Lord Bahat, we want to leave!"
Gacha's words hit everyone's hearts like a hammer, and seeing someone standing up first, others also stood up one after another.
"Lord Bahat, although Gacha is young, what he said makes sense. We cannot defend this golden city!"
"We should not continue to hold on in Jincheng. Lord Bahat, you should take us home!"
"The Western Elonqen grassland is being attacked by the Luobei people. We should not fight bloody battles with the Fengwu army here. We have to go back to defend our grassland!"
···················
···················
Everyone was talking in gibberish. Although the words they said were different, the meaning of the words was the same, that is, they did not want to fight the Fengwu Army anymore, they wanted to go home and return to the grassland!
Feeling the thoughts of everyone, Bahat was also very sad in his heart. He knew that these generals had such thoughts, and there was no doubt that the ordinary soldiers below also had such thoughts!
Although Bahat decided early on that he would not defend the Golden City, he knew very well that this best opportunity to withdraw from the Kipchak Khanate and conquer the Astai region was wasted. The Khanate will not be able to touch Astai for at least thirty years in the future. Thailand area!
Therefore, because of the siege by the Fengwu Army, Bahat was unable to know the movements of Esdogan. However, for the benefit of the Khanate as a whole, Bahat originally wanted to hold on for a while. Today's meeting was originally held by him. Prepare to encourage some of these subordinates to persist for a while.
But seeing this situation, Bhatt also understood how strong everyone's thoughts were, and public opinion cannot be violated!
Thinking of this, under the eyes of everyone, Bahat broke the silence and said in a deep voice:
"Since you don't want to fight anymore, I'll take you home!"
Before Bahat finished speaking, everyone in the room looked much more relaxed. They were all afraid that Bahat would fight to the death in Jincheng... ········
Now that the tone of the retreat has been set, everyone is discussing the specific plan for the retreat!
Because some people are greedy and not only want their own people to leave, but also want to leave with their looted property, so they proposed the first retreat plan, which was to negotiate with the Fengwu Army!
The content of the negotiation was that the Kipchaks handed over Jincheng to the Fengwu Army, and the Fengwu Army allowed them to leave with their belongings.
Because they knew that the Fengwu Army valued the lives of the people, the Kipchaks also made a threat, that is, for every day that the Fengwu Army delayed the negotiations, they would kill a hundred Zhou people in the city. If the Fengwu Army If the army continues to attack Jincheng, they will kill 500 Zhou people in the city every day.
The most important thing is that if the Fengwu Army refuses to negotiate, then they will kill tens of thousands of Zhou people in the city!
As soon as this proposal came out, it immediately won the approval of the Kipchak generals present. The Kipchak tribes suffered heavy losses during this trip south. If they can bring some Zhou Dynasty treasures back, they can make up for some of the losses and not lose their vitality. Big injury!
If we break out directly, we will definitely not be able to bring much money with us, so it is undoubtedly best to bring more money through negotiation so that we can leave peacefully!
However, there are also some Kipchak generals who feel that if this policy is implemented, it will lead to mass rebellion among the Zhou people in the city. When the time comes, it will be even more difficult to hold on to Jincheng under attack from both inside and outside... ·············
In addition, the Fengwu Army has always been very strong.
This kind of negotiation can easily anger the Fengwu Army. Once the Fengwu Army intensifies its offensive, they will not have time or enough numbers to massacre the city!
Bhagat also recognized this kind of rational voice, so he also formulated an alternative plan!
This alternative plan means that everyone should make two preparations. On the one hand, they are prepared to negotiate, and on the other hand, they are prepared to break out. If they can leave Jincheng through negotiation, it is undoubtedly the best. If not, then they will break out directly. In short, they cannot continue to stay in Jincheng. !
Jincheng is now a dead and lifeless place, and staying here will only lead to death!
Everyone in Kipchak also very much recognized Bahat's preparations. Now that the plan has been determined, the last step left is to confirm who will go to Fengwu Army and where to negotiate with Fengwu Army!
This kind of negotiation cannot be done by just sending a soldier casually. It requires a person with identity and status. When the Kipchak generals present mentioned this issue, they all became silent. Obviously everyone knows that this is a very dangerous task. ·································
