The First Tyrant of Daxia

It's autumn.

For more than half a month, the fighting at Shanhaiguan in Yuzhou was in full swing. The Turkic Watai sent out 100,000 troops but failed to break through Xiao Jian's defense line.

Of course, the Turks had no intention of entering through Shanhaiguan, they just wanted to harass and contain the enemy.

In the thirteen battles, the death toll on both sides was less than 50,000.

The Youzhou battlefield broke out completely!

Ashina Yuangu's methods are not comparable to those of ordinary people. After the last test, he remained silent for only a few days, and in his own way, he once again confirmed Qin Yun's position.

So three days ago, the Turkic army sounded the horn and officially launched a general offensive along the Youzhou line, working day and night without rest and without feeling tired!

The five most important counties in Youzhou were engulfed in flames and covered in blood, a horrific sight.

The city walls were dented by catapults and left with marks from swords and sabers.

Whenever the horn was sounded to call back the troops, one could see the collapsed city walls and flags, flames burning, the city full of blood and corpses piled up like mountains, crows cawing in the sky, the setting sun fading, it was indescribably desolate.

Countless people wailed, countless people shed tears of blood!

Their hatred for the Turks has reached its peak!

It was also during this period that generals such as Long Xiao, Kou Tianxiong, and Yan Zhong were injured one after another. The worst battle was the Battle of Che County. Yan Zhong almost died on the city wall, and was finally pulled back to the rear by his subordinates in a chariot.

He was in tatters and was nearly cut in half by Guldo!

According to statistics, 60,000 people have died since the battle, and countless people have been injured and disabled!

The Turks paid a price for this. The number of casualties reached 80,000, and the number of injured was far higher than that of the Xia army.

But Ashina Yuangu was too ruthless and too good at commanding the army. Qin Yun was far inferior to him in many aspects.

Seeing that he was in an advantageous position, he would rather sacrifice more people in order to capture the city!

It is mid-May and golden chrysanthemums are in full bloom.

Following a series of fierce attacks by Ashina Yuangu, Daxia lost thirteen important cities in succession, and the first hole in Youzhou's defense line was officially torn.

But Qin Yun chose to give up strategically, avoiding more casualties.

At the end of May and the beginning of June, General Wuzhu, the second bravest warrior of the Turks, was transferred to the Youzhou battlefield by Yuan Gu.

This man is ranked second among Yuangu's fiercest generals, but he rarely shows up. There is even less information about him, and he is not even on Qin Yun's intelligence desk. As soon as he went into battle, he caused a sensation!

He led 20,000 men out from Dagukou, marched north for thirty miles, defeated Liu Wanshi first, and then forced his way to Guzhahe.

It was not until Gongsun Zhongmou led 30,000 cavalry from Xiliang to provide support that Wuzhu retreated.

However, Yuan Gu refused to give up and set up a strategy of confusing the enemy. He first pretended to attack the main city of Youzhou, and then secretly sent Wuzhu on a long-distance attack, like a blitzkrieg, to occupy Pingyi County.

It was the loss of Pingyi County and the huge casualties that completely made Qin Yun furious!

"You bastard, Pingyi County was massacred!" Qin Yun gritted his teeth, his eyes were bloodshot, and he tore the envelope apart.

Boom!

He overturned the table with one hand, and the files and papers were scattered all over the floor.

The generals in the tent were all terrified. They lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Although the people of Pingyi County had long been settled in the rear, there were still a small number of civilian workers helping to transport food and fodder, as well as thousands of soldiers.

Intelligence reports indicate that no one survived!

When the city was broken, the commander-in-chief Zhang Xi committed suicide with his sword, and his body was dismembered by Wuzhu.

Such a great shame and humiliation! Such a deep hatred! How can Your Majesty not be angry!

Zhang Xi has another identity. He is the second batch of students in the Martial Arts Hall and a student of the emperor.

"Who can kill him?!" Qin Yun roared, murderous intent surging.

Although the goal was to reduce casualties and buy time to wait for the red cannons, the war situation had already become what it was. If they did not fight back and demonstrate, the morale of the army would collapse.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up and they were excited.

Is Your Majesty finally going to take the initiative?

It should be noted that Pingyi County is now an isolated city, has been lost, and is not within the defense line.

"Your Majesty, I will go!"

"I am willing to go!"

"I swear to avenge General Zhang Xi!!"

There were loud roars and anger everywhere. The generals here were so excited that they knelt down and asked for orders.

But the truly mature generals who were not injured were only Chen Qianzhi, Long Xiao, Liu Wanshi, Yan Zhong and others who were basically injured.

Then there are some new and cutting-edge generals who are brave enough but not capable of standing alone.

Although Qin Yun was furious, he had not lost his mind.

After a slight hesitation, he looked a little troubled. After all, Wushu was known as the second general of Yuangu, and Guerduo was only ranked third.

Mu Le had already gone to Che County, took over Yan Zhong's shift, and started an offensive and defensive battle with Guerduo.

Sudden.

A loud voice sounded from the corner of the tent. It was He Ya.

The last time he rushed to help Yan County, he didn't achieve much, so he still hadn't proved himself, but this time he got the chance!

His pupils were burning with fiery light!

Everyone looked at him in unison, with some suspicion in their eyes.

"Your Majesty, let the sin go."

"I have heard of Wuzhu. He is half Xiliang and half Hu. He is a fierce Turkic general with a bloodthirsty nature. His marching style is very similar to mine."

"I am willing to take back Pingyi County!" He Ya knelt down and spoke calmly, but he could not conceal his fighting spirit!

"no!"

Chen Qingzhi was the first to object, and he stood up and said, "The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is the least mature army in our army. It has only been established for a few months. How can it defeat Wuzhu's elite troops?"

"I do not deny that General He Ya is extremely powerful, but the armies of both sides..."

He didn't finish his speech, but it was quickly recognized by the majority.

"Yes, your majesty, this is inappropriate."

"If we lose again, morale will be low and the Turks will become even more arrogant."

"..."

Qin Yun stood with his hands behind his back, and after listening, he had almost no hesitation.

"Pingyi County is too important. Counting the thirteen towns that were robbed ahead, don't you guys find anything?"

Hearing this, the soldiers in the main tent all looked up with a hint of confusion on their faces.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

"Isn't Pingyi County an isolated city? It can't play a big role, and it's useless for the Turks to occupy it."

"Aren't we mainly focusing on boosting morale and seeking revenge?"

"..."

Qin Yun sighed secretly when he heard this, it's hard to find such a handsome guy!

Daxia had many brave generals, but too few talented commanders. Apart from the mature Xiao Jian, there was only the young Gongsun Zhongmou.

As for the others, even Mu Le is not good enough to be called a talented general.

He threw the map out, frowning: "Take another good look at it!"

"Don't just look at one city, look at it as a whole, including Youzhou!"

He emphasized the word "pretend" very strongly.

Although the generals had no talent for commanding, they were all military men and could react easily when prompted. All of a sudden, everyone's expressions were shocked and their pupils dilated, as if they had seen something terrible.

"This……"

"This, this is an encirclement when put together!"

"If we move up Pingyi County, we can cut off the connection between Pancheng and Youzhou. With the addition of some villages and towns controlled by the Turks, we can unscrupulously surround Youzhou!!"

"Not good, Yuan Gu is targeting Youzhou!"

"Hiss!" Chen Qingzhi and others gasped in shock, unable to calm down, with chills running down their spines!
