Chapter 177: Soldiers in Langya

In the city of Langya County, thick smoke was billowing, the towers were dilapidated, and there were holes and scars everywhere from the boulders thrown by the trebuchet. The ground is embedded in it, and this kind of powerful crossbow arrows are like weeds at this time, spreading all over the entire city wall. The moat has already been filled up. instrument

Linghu Qingyuan is fully clothed, standing on the top of the city, but his face is full of despair. Now he is no different from the wise man in Liaoxi City who lifted weights lightly and had a well-thought-out chest. He is just a face full of smoke and dust, and his body is stained with blood Yes, a desperate guest who is about to fall into hell

The coup in Jicheng came suddenly and ferociously. Before the incident, the Linghu family did not receive any information, nor did it arouse alarm. Zecheng teamed up, one controls most of the capital's army, and the other controls Dayan's intelligence department and mouthpiece, with these two working together, there is nothing that can't be done

What they want to overthrow is not only the Linghu family, but also the most powerful backer of the Linghu family. The king of Yan Kingdom Zhaoping Wang Linghu Qingyuan always thought that the Linghu family was strong enough. In Yan Kingdom, except for the king, they are completely He could cover the sky with one hand, but when the incident happened, he realized that the Linghu family's mansion was only built on the beach, just like the Ye family back then.

Thinking of the Ye family, Linghu Qingyuan's heart couldn't help but tremble. This is also the reason why Langya City survived until now after being attacked by the Ye family. Everyone in the Linghu family knows about the life and death enmity of the Linghu family. If they can't defend Langya City, what awaits them will be the destruction of their family, because that's how they dealt with Ye Shi ten years ago

When the news of the Jicheng coup had just reached Langya County, Liaoxi, Hejian, and Yuyang. The armies of the four counties of Kaiping also appeared on the border of Langya County from four directions. The unsuspecting Langya County was defeated from the very beginning of the war. It was not at all the opponent of these four planned enemies. The desperate resistance of the counties and counties is nothing more than a little more supplies in Langya City and more soldiers assembled

But what is the use of all this? Linghu Qingyuan looked at the top of the city in despair. Compared with yesterday, the number of soldiers who could still stand was thinner, while the number of enemies outside the city was getting more and more day by day. enemy. Looking at the flags of Liaoxi, Hejian, Yuyang, and Kaiping flying outside the city, he thought of Zhou Yuan and Ning Zecheng in Jicheng. These people are all important figures in the Great Yan. But now, they are all united. Who can bring them together who have different ideas, different paths, and even conflicts with each other?

Now. Of course Linghu Qingyuan knew about it, but it was too late.

This person is Ye's fish that slipped through the net back then, Ye Tiannan

I used to think that the Linghu family had firmly established a foothold in Dayan, but I didn't expect that it was still so vulnerable.

The Linghu family in Dayan was not considered a first-class family at first, but more than ten years ago, the current head of the family, Linghu Chao, married the younger sister of Zhao Qi, a nobleman of Zhao State, and at that time, the son of Yan State, Ping, also married Zhao Guoguo. The lord's younger sister, with this relationship, Linghu Chao and Gong Ziping became natural allies. After more than ten years of planning, finally on that snowy night ten years ago, a strange soldier stood out and brought the then Ye's family, the largest aristocratic family in Dayan, pulled down from the horse

That night, blood stained Xueye's entire family, and almost all of them fell under the butcher's knife

After that night, the Linghu family replaced the Ye family and stood at the first place among the nobles of the Dayan family, and the son Ping they supported also ascended the position of the king of the Yan country after that night. For King Zhaoping, that night was the beginning of the first year of Zhaoping

That night, Mrs. Ye fell, and Prince An, the heir to the lord of Yan, supported by Mrs. Ye, was forced to go into exile in Qi. A few years later, he became ill and died in Linzi, the capital of Qi. teenage son

Another ten years passed, this time, the feng shui took turns, and the tragedy of the Ye family finally fell on the Linghu family. The fish that escaped the net, Ye Tiannan, came back, and with him was the son of Gongzi An, Lord Shaoling, Now, Lord Shaoling may have sat on the high throne in the palace of Jicheng, accepting the congratulations of the officials.

The sound of rumbling war drums sounded outside the city, Linghu Qingyuan took a deep breath, cheered up again, and once again grasped the blood-stained knife handle, they had no way out, the city was broken, and the clan perish

Zhang Shouyue is also holding a knife, but his knife is still clean and not stained with any blood. Under the fluttering Liaoxi County flag, there are five hundred of his own soldiers. These people are Zhang Shouyue's biggest Of the five hundred people, none of them were younger than thirty. They were all veterans who followed Zhang Shouyue and participated in the battle against the Donghu people more than ten years ago. At the age of twenty, he has already been on the battlefield and seen blood

The first batch of personal soldiers, such as Lu Hong, Huang Desheng and others, have been promoted to generals of Liaoxi County, and have become generals of Liaoxi County, while more people have retired due to old age and frailty. When the veterans retire, Zhang Shouyue will choose one person from among the soldiers who participated in the battle to join his personal army. The salary is even higher. Of course, the other income of the county magistrates in charge cannot be included in the calculation. Zhang Shouyue can firmly control Liaoxi County. This is also the best place for him to place his soldiers who have retired because of getting older

The Battle of Langya has been going on for nearly twenty days. Since the four-county alliance broke through the border of Langya, they have not stopped all the way, marched straight, and blocked the entire Linghu clan in Langya City. The four counties have suffered a lot of losses. The Linghu family has hidden a lot of good things in Langya County. The bare bed crossbow can be compared with the coalition forces of the four counties

Of course, the fact that Langya City can drag the war to this point may have something to do with the fact that the four counties of Liaoxi, Yuyang, Kaiping, and Hejian cannot trust each other. The four families agreed to surround Langya City on all sides, and take turns to attack each other every day.

Such an arrangement seems fair, but in fact, when it was their turn to attack the city, none of the four families showed their real strength, which made Langya City's life so miserable.

It's Zhang Shouyue's turn today

It's time too! Zhang Shouyue said to himself in his heart yesterday, news came from Jicheng, the big event has been decided, the entire family of Linghu Chao in Jicheng was captured, and more than 400 people from Linghu Chao died under the hands of Ye Tiannan. The only survivors are Linghu Chao's wife, the sister of Zhao Qi, a nobleman of the State of Zhao, and King Zhaoping died of a sudden illness. Feng has been imprisoned Lord Shaoling has ascended the throne and announced to the world that Ye Tiannan, the new leader of the Yan Kingdom, has become the new Prime Minister

It's time for them to see their strength! It's time to end. Liaoxi is different from Yuyang, Hejian, and Kaiping. Outside Liaoxi, there is an enemy who is eyeing it. Donghu King Miranda has such a big change in the territory of Yan. It is impossible to hide it from Donghu King. If the war drags on, it is very likely to attract the covetousness of the King of Donghu. The two armies stationed in Fufeng and Chima will never be able to stop King Donghu's massive attack

This time I took such a big risk, risking the threat of a large-scale attack by the Eastern Hu King in Liaoxi, and participating in the abolition of the establishment, not because of the ability of the new king and the new prime minister to overcome all opinions and make myself Feudal Western Liaoning? In the past, I have become a participant. Now, it is time for me to spread my fangs. Let these big shots see my strength and let them understand that Zhang Shouyue will not swallow his anger anymore. If he dares to fool himself , then when the time comes, this army that can easily defeat the Linghu Clan may all turn against each other

Langya City has reached the last moment, their strength has been exhausted, and only their last breath is left.

To be honest, this battle allowed Zhang Shouyue to roughly see the strength of the other counties. Compared with his Liaoxi soldiers, they were still far behind, and those generals who led the army, Zhang Shouyue was even worse. Disdainfully, in my own army, those who can become officers are all veterans who have participated in actual combat, while in several other armies, the generals are almost all taken by the nephews of these great nobles. These people, when it comes to the art of war , That's called a well-organized, but when it comes to fighting, hehe, it's really well-organized and followed the scriptures, how can it be called a regular one!

Real war is not like this! Of course Zhang Shouyue would not tell these people this truth. The ever-changing battlefield is something that you can master by memorizing military books. Let's lead the army

Zhang Shouyue pulled out his saber inch by inch, held it up high, and as his saber was unsheathed, under the Liaoxi army flag, five hundred veterans shouted in unison, and five hundred long swords struck them at the same time With the shield in your hand, the booming sound shakes the battlefield

"Gu Changwei!" Zhang Shouyue shouted loudly

"The last general is here!" A veteran with a gray beard came out in response

"Three drums, take down Langya!" Zhang Shouyue shouted sharply

"The general will obey the order!"

"Attack!" Zhang Shouyue dropped the saber in his hand
