Chapter 641

Yongcheng is surrounded by mountains in the East, West and North, with Weihe River as the central axis and extending eastward. Mountain hills and forests account for more than three-quarters of the city, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The army moved forward to the place twenty miles away from the wall of Yong City, and the spies came back. The detective told Yunqing that the general who guarded Yongcheng was named Xie Junxiong.

After hearing the name, Yu Cong said, "general, this man has never heard of it. It seems that Ji Xuan is useless! " Although Yongcheng is easy to defend and hard to attack, it's easy to fight without good generals to defend.

Yu Cong's view is opposite to that of Cui mo. he said: "Ji Xuan and his subordinates are unpopular. It's better for us to let them guard the city. This unheard of Xie Junxiong is not easy to deal with. "

Yuan Ying said, "general, I think we should send someone to see Xie Junxiong." Feng Dajun is now in charge of Lanzhou city. He is short of manpower here, so he comes here. Yuan Ying proposed that if Xie Junxiong knew current affairs, he should surrender. They sent envoys. If the other side agreed, unnecessary casualties could be avoided. If they refused, it would not be too late to attack the city.

Cui Mo didn't agree. He said, "even if Xie Junxiong is a little bit heavy, we have 100000 troops. Are you afraid of him?"

Yu Cong looked at Yun Qing and said, "general, what do you mean?" Yu Cong only obeys Yun Qing's command, and he won't care about other people's words.

Without waiting for Yun Qing to express his opinion, he heard the guard outside saying that Ding Qingyu wanted to see him. Ding Qingyu does know how to cure, but he can only cure some simple injuries.

Come to him at this time. Something must have happened. Cloud Qing says: "let him in." Let's see what Ding Qingyu can offer him.

Ding Qingyu came to tell Yunqing about Xie Junxiong: "general, Xie Junxiong is from Ho City. He is not only brave in fighting, but also good at planning." This evaluation is very high.

Cui didn't believe Ding Qingyu's words and said, "if he is really so powerful, we've never heard of him."

Ding Qingyu cleared his throat and said, "Xie Junxiong's stepwife is Zhang Wenjie's niece. Ji Xuan and Zhang Wenjie are enemies. How can they reuse him. In this case, Xie Junxiong still climbed to the position of third grade. What do you think of this person's ability? "

Cui Moyang said in a loud voice: "it may be that this person will flatter you!"

Cloud engine directly ignores Cui Mo's words and asks, "in which battles did this man make contributions?" If the guerrilla generals of the third grade are promoted in military achievements, they should not be underestimated.

Ding Qingyu tells the details of Xie Junxiong. Xie Junxiong is the descendant of Xie family in Ho City. Xie family is a family of military generals and has a deep foundation in Northwest China. At that time, Zhang Wenjie would marry his niece to Xie Junxiong as his stepmother, just to win over the Xie family: "Xie Junxiong first accumulated military achievements by suppressing bandits. Later, he stayed in Xihai for three years, made a lot of military achievements, and was promoted very quickly. Eight years ago, he was promoted to two levels in a row. " Civil servants are different from military officers. It's a great event for civil servants to be promoted to two levels in a row. It's estimated that people all over the world will know about the promotion to three levels. In the army, as long as you have accumulated enough military achievements, you will be promoted quickly. Otherwise, cloud engine could not have climbed to the second grade position at the age of 24.

Yun Qing remembered the battle clearly, and said, "I remember that the leader of the battle was Ji Xuan, right?"

Ding Qingyu said: "it was Ji Xuan who led the army, but Xie Junxiong was one of the Deputy generals at that time. At that time, Ji Xuan didn't have a firm foothold, so he sold his family face. After Ji Xuan got a firm foothold, he began to suppress Xie family. But the Xie family is a hundred year old family, and they know what they are interested in, so they can be safe until now. " This is Ji Xuan's most beautiful time, and it also made Ji Xuan stand firm in the northwest.

Yun Qing's face was very ugly, and he said: "I remember the battle with Tubo eight years ago, our army lost 100000 talents to win. Is that a victory? " At that time, Tubo sent 80000 troops, but they died 110000 people. It's a bullshit victory to use the flesh and blood of soldiers.

Hear cloud engine say our army, Ding Qingyu mouth corner smoked. Don't blame cloud Qing doesn't like to see their three brothers. It turns out that they don't think they are traitors at all, and they still regard themselves as a general!

Ding Qingyu coughed for a while and said, "Ji Xuan actually has a name. The real war is between Leng Bufeng and Dai Xingguang, as well as Xie Junxiong and others."

Yuan Ying was suspicious and asked, "why do you know the details of Xie Junxiong so well?" This Ding Qingyu is not a good person.

Ding Qingyu said with a smile, "not only Xie Junxiong, but also the famous ones in Shaanxi Province. I don't know anything about them." This is his capital and his strength.

Yun Qing doesn't like Ding Qingyu very much, but at this point, no matter who, as long as you have to use it, it becomes: "do you think we should attack or persuade?"

As soon as Ding Qingyu's eyes are bright, he goes to Yunqing not to be a military doctor, but to become Yunqing's counselor. Ding Qingyu suppressed his joy and said calmly, "first persuade him to surrender, then attack him."

Trimmer said, "what do you mean? Are you so sure that Xie Junxiong will not surrender? What if he does

Ding Qingyu shook his head and said, "impossible. Xie Junxiong is a very proud man. He can't surrender without fighting. Even if he agrees to surrender, it must be false. "

"What else do you want to send someone to persuade you to surrender? If you don't attack the city directly? Don't waste time? " Their time is precious, too!

Ding Qingyu said with a smile: "Xie Junxiong is a very proud person, but the people around him are not." Xie Junxiong's unwillingness to surrender does not mean that the people around him do not want to surrender. After all, the northwest army has a fierce reputation, and there are 100000 troops. Other generals in Yongcheng are not sure that they can live in the city. Rather than persuading him to surrender, he is actually shaking the people around him.

Yuan Ying frowned and said, "who will be sent to persuade him to surrender?" It's no problem to let them fight, but they can't persuade them to do such a difficult thing.

Ding Qingyu clasped his hands and said to Yun Qing, "Ding is not talented. He is willing to go to Yongcheng to persuade Xie Junxiong to surrender."

"You're not afraid of death," chuckled trimmer Xie Junxiong killed Ding Qingyu in a rage. That's a real injustice.

Ding Qingyu said with a smile: "if the two armies are at war, they will not kill the emissary. I believe Xie Junxiong will not be so ungrateful. " If you don't do anything, how can you win the trust of cloud engine by just one mouth.

Yun Qing nodded and said, "if you have any conditions, just mention them. As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you. " If there is no agreement, attack the city directly. Time is precious. We must seize the northwest before the Imperial Army arrives.

Ding Qingyu didn't ask for anything: "I can start now."

Yuan Ying stood up and said, "I'll go with you." He wants to take the opportunity to check the layout of Yongcheng, and then they will have an advantage.

Ding Qingyu shook his head and said, "as soon as you go out, you will know that your status is not low. It will be inappropriate to detain you in the army at that time." He is a nobody. Even if he is detained by Xie Junxiong, Yunqing will not delay the siege for him.

An hour later, Ding Qingyu came back. "What did Xie Junxiong say? Would you like to surrender

Ding Qingyu shook his head and said: "that jiejunxiong said, it's OK to surrender, but he wants the general to go to the city to talk with him." Unless cloud Qing brain show funny, will promise a person into the city.

Yun Qing said: "let the soldiers have a good rest and attack the city tomorrow morning." Now it's getting late, and the soldiers have been on the run for a few days. Have a good rest and have a good rest.

The next day, at dawn, the northwest army began to attack the city. After a day's fighting, Yongcheng was finally captured at the cost of more than 8000 casualties. Xie Junxiong did not escape like Leng Bufeng and Chen Wei, and he did not surrender. He fought until the last moment before he fell down.

The reason why Yucheng can't be defended is not Xie Junxiong's problem, but the soldiers at the bottom have lost confidence in the imperial court and Ji Xuan. Moreover, they had been informed that Yunqing not only didn't kill the prisoners, but also made trouble for the soldiers who wanted to go home. In addition, the war of the northwest army was extremely fierce. In this case, no one was willing to fight for his life. If the soldiers don't work hard, no matter how powerful the general is, he will not be able to use it. If he can persist for one day, it is enough to prove that Xie Junxiong is powerful.

Cloud Qing hears this matter to say: "thick bury solution general." This is the real soldier, the one Yunqing respects.

Trimmer answered, "yes." He also respects Xie Junxiong. Along the way, he came across several generals under Ji Xuan, none of whom was in his eyes. Today, I finally saw a real soldier, who let him know that there were no generals who could fight in the northwest, but they were buried.

Yun Qing looked at Ding Qingyu and said, "what do you want?" If you recommend yourself, you must have a plan. Otherwise, you won't risk your life to persuade Xie Junxiong.

"I want to follow the general," Ding said Follow cloud engine to make achievements. Heroes emerge in troubled times. Although Yunqing has many shortcomings, he is good-looking.

Cloud engine has put words before, as long as can do he won't refuse: "yes, but I don't leave useless people." If you want to stay with him, you can't do without real ability.

Ding Qingyu said with pride: "whether the general is useful or not is not by saying, but by doing." Now it's just the first step. There is still a long way to go for Yunqing to completely believe him.

It's only four hundred miles from Yongcheng to Haocheng. It only takes two and a half days. Ding Qingyu asked: "general, we should take advantage of the victory to pursue."

Cloud Qing is silent for a while, asked Ding Qingyu: "do you have the map from Yong city to Ho City?" Maps are very important things.

Ding Qingyu shook his head and said, "I don't have a map, but I've walked three times from here to pick City, and I have some impression on the way.

Cloud engine said: "then you go back and write down everything you remember!" If you don't know this section of the road, it's not good if there's an ambush.
