    After Huang Mingyuan occupied Lingqiu and Fanzhi, he had already approached Yanmen City.

    However, after Huang Mingyuan arrived at Fanzhi, he was not in a hurry to attack Yanmen City. Instead, he stopped advancing and waited and watched.

    At this time, Huang Mingyuan only had 30,000 troops in hand, and he had not yet made contact with the reinforcements from Hedong. The enemy was outnumbered, and a rash attack on the Turks was nothing more than an egg against a stone.  Of course, we can't do nothing. Huang Mingyuan has already sent people south to contact King Qin's divisions in various places in Hedong to respond.

    In fact, Huang Mingyuan's westward march could not be hidden from Shibi Khan at all.

    The main force of the Sui army entered Hedong in large numbers. This had been expected by Shibi Khan, and the Turkic sentries also discovered it.  Later, Tongluo Xie also led his army eastward to block the attack, and it was precisely because of this that Shibi Khan did not object.

    Shibi Khan had a good idea. Even if the elites of the Sui army from Liaodong and Youzhou came to help, Tongluo Xie would be able to step forward first.

    But there were two things he didn't expect. One was that Huang Mingyuan came so quickly; the other was that the Tiele people ran away inexplicably.

    When Ashina Lifu came to see Shibi Khan and told his brother that Tongluo tribe had left Lingqiu and Fanzhi and moved north without saying hello, Shibi Khan still said it was impossible.

    Tong Luo Xie also hated the Sui army deeply. At this time, there was a good opportunity to capture Yang Guang, and there was only one step away from conquering Yanmen. According to Tong Luo Xieye's temperament, no matter how much he paid, he  I would also grit my teeth and persist, why would I suddenly leave?

    Shibi Khan didn’t believe it.  He thought that it was possible that Tong Luo Xie was deliberately bargaining with him, and that his retreat to the north was just a gesture to get more spoils.

    Ashina Qilifu advised Shibi Khan not to blindly trust Tongluo Xieye, but Shibi Khan remained unmoved.

    Since you want to get more benefits, I’ll give it to you, as long as you are willing to work hard.  In order to break the city, Shibi Khan also risked his life and sent people to Tongluo Xieye's army, promising to give half of the captured troops to the Tiele people.

    At the beginning, Bi Khan was still dreaming of making the Tiele people fight for their lives, but soon more news spread to the Turkic army.

    The Tiele people in the east abandoned the captured materials, left behind a large number of items, and headed north without looking back.  The Sui army's scouts hurriedly followed slowly, but none of them could catch up.

    After hearing the inquiry, Khan couldn't help but cursed loudly. He couldn't help but strangle Tong Luo Xie to death.  The Tiele people are indeed the descendants of thieves and thieves, and they all deserve to be hanged with a rope.

    I cursed for a while, but to no avail.  And Shibi Khan couldn't sit still.

    The current battle to attack Yanmen is not going well, and reinforcements from the Sui Army from Hebei have arrived, and the situation has already taken a turn for the worse.  The Tiele people retreated again, which made their situation worse.  They have to face the Sui army coming from several directions for support at the same time. The prospect of this battle is probably not good.

    At the same time, the Sui army followed closely behind the Tiele people, and the front had reached Fanzhi.

    A forward cavalry force of Turkic Ashina Simo, about a thousand people in total, went eastward to plunder, and happened to encounter the Sui army.  After a fierce battle between the two sides, the Turkic cavalry was defeated and returned with the loss of hundreds of people, almost annihilating the entire army.

    When the news reached the Turkic army, there was even more uproar.

    The crowd besieged Yanmen City for so many days. Although they repeatedly attacked the city, they suffered heavy losses.  As the days passed by, no results were seen, and the troops were lost in vain.  The Turks, who had always put profit first, had long wanted to retreat. Why did they leave the good villages without plundering them? They had to compete with the main force of the Sui army to consume them. They really couldn't afford it.

    Many people suggested that Khan should give up when he saw the situation and withdraw to the grassland.  Anyway, we have already gained a lot from going south this time, so there is really no need to stay in Hedong and fight with the Sui army.

    Shibi Khan also wanted to leave, but he had already turned against the Sui Dynasty, so he had to capture the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, otherwise he would suffer the revenge of the Sui Dynasty.

    From the moment he decided to raid the emperor's chariot in the Sui Dynasty, Khan had no chance to look back.

    So Shibi Khan decided to make a desperate move and ordered his brother Zilifu to lead his troops east to meet the Sui army and buy him enough time to break the city.

    "Zi Lifu is not a fool. He is fighting with Huang Mingyuan. Does he have what it takes?"

    And seeing Tong Luo Xie leaving Hedong in a hurry, he became suspicious, maybe something happened on the grassland.

    "Khan, are we like the Tiele people, who retreated to the grassland, leaving Khan alone to fight the Sui army. I always feel that the Sui army and the Tiele people have a conspiracy. Could it be that the Tiele people left in such a hurry?  What kind of alliance have they made with the Sui army?"

    Zhao Deyan, Lifu’s confidant, advised.

    "Zi Lifu also wanted to leave, but he didn't dare to leave.

    "Deyan, Duo Jishi is not a fool. If we leave too, Duo Ji?Is it true that he will stay in Yanmen and fight with the Sui army to death? I'm afraid it's not certain.  I'm afraid that as soon as we leave, he will also withdraw. When the time comes, he will return to the grassland and lead the tribes to attack me for escaping without authorization. If he puts the responsibility for the failure of this southward expedition on my head, there will be trouble.  Big.  "

    Zhao Deyan thought for a while and said nothing.

    "Leaver is resourceful and indecisive. At critical moments, he looks forward and backward, lacks the ability to make decisions, and loses good opportunities.

    Still can’t leave, let’s check the situation again.

    After all, Lifu was not sure of the real situation and was unwilling to directly offend Shibi Khan. In order to explore the situation, he temporarily led the army eastward.

    "However, although Zilifu was ordered to stop the enemy, he did not stupidly go east to attack the fortified city.  He set up a defensive line on the north bank of the Hutuo River west of Yanmen City, preparing to meet the enemy.

    Huang Mingyuan on the other side estimated that Li Jing had occupied Heng'an Town, so he left Fanzhi and headed west again.  The army arrived at Zaolin and confronted the Turks.

    The Turks did not take the initiative to attack, and the Sui army also set up camp, looking like they were holding on and did not look like they were coming to support them at all.

    When Lifu didn't understand the Sui army's intentions, he sent people to challenge and test the Sui army's details.

    Huang Mingyuan was overjoyed when he heard that the leader of the Turks on the opposite side was Qilifu.

    I know Huang Mingyuan, the second son of Qimin Khan. He is shrewd and wise, completely different from his reckless brother.  And unlike Shibi Khan's rejection of Han culture, Lever was still a little fan of Han culture and had a large number of Han advisers under his command.

    Huang Mingyuan is very aware of the contradiction between Shibi Khan and Zilifu.  Although the two parties are temporarily united due to interests, in fact the conflict between the two parties is irreconcilable, because both of them want to be the great khan of the Turks.

    He knew that using this as a breakthrough might lead to the brothers Shibi Khan and Zilifu fighting each other, especially now that they were alone in the conflict.

    It is never a lie that the hozens will scatter when a tree falls.

    Huang Mingyuan stood firm and refused to accept the other party's challenge, but he sent an envoy to the Qilifu camp, and the envoy was Zhang Jian, Huang Mingyuan's newly appointed soldier Cao Xing who joined the army.

    Zhang Jian newly entered the Huang Mingyuan shogunate. In order to achieve meritorious service, he took the initiative to ask for a military emissary and went to the enemy camp.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
