    "Here it comes, here it comes, these Turks are coming so fast! Let's go to the city wall and see what these thousands of people are doing!"

    When he heard that the young general reported that there were scouts coming, and that thousands of Eastern Turkic cavalry were running towards Xiaoguan, Zhang Yang suddenly became interested and greeted him.

    With Zhang Yang¡¯s greeting, everyone suddenly became interested. Most of them responded to Zhang Yang¡¯s call:

    "Since Captain Zhang has said so, let's all go and have a look. There's no point in standing here now. It's better to go to the city wall and have a look."

    "Now that I'm talking about it, our Xiaoguan can be said to have high walls and thick walls, with dangerous terrain, but the terrain is also very simple. It is surrounded by two mountain ranges and meets three rivers. It is not only surrounded by majestic peaks, but also has deep and dangerous valleys, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.  It has a unique geographical advantage, and there are three passes of Danzheng Gorge emerging from the south of Jingshui River. It is a natural defense system formed by Xiaoguan from south to north. Today, the Jingshui here flows and gurgls in all seasons.

    The thousands of cavalry sent by the Turks were like a wolf entering the tiger's mouth to deliver food to us.  "

    Suddenly, there was a crowd of responders. Seeing this scene, Ran Hongzhi did not stop him, but took the lead in responding. So everyone filed out of the Xiaoguan garrison. A group of dozens of people marched toward the Xiaoguan city wall.  OK.

    At this time, not everyone in the garrison mansion left with Zhang Yang and Ran Hongzhi. There were still two people left behind, Qin Liyan and Lezheng Junxiong.

    This is also the reason why so many people responded to Zhang Yang¡¯s proposal to visit the city wall. Why, it was to save some face for Yue Zhengjunxiong who lost the bet.  So that he would not admit defeat in front of so many people and feel ashamed.

    Of course, this is just what everyone thinks, because of Lezheng Junxiong¡¯s arrogant temper.  Everyone knows that the more stubborn a donkey is, the better his face is.  In front of so many people, admitting defeat and submitting to weakness can be said to be quite a loss of face.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of the way, this person who wants to save face will do something heartbreaking after losing face.

    But at this time, Toshio Yue Zheng didn¡¯t think so much. For him, losing is losing.  Besides, the only person who understands you best is yourself, and your enemies are the only ones who know you best. Friends on the side still have limitations when they understand you.

    Although Lezheng Junxiong is impulsive and accepts death, he is also a person who can win and lose.

    I¡¯m talking.  He didn't feel any loss of face for losing to Qin Liyan. He could only say that he was just asking for trouble. Therefore, Yue Zhengjunxiong was willing to admit defeat for losing to Qin Liyan. Since the loss was fair and aboveboard, why should he complain at all.

    What¡¯s more, this is the trouble he caused for himself.  Can't blame anyone else.  He can only blame himself for doing things too impulsively.

    At this time, Qin Liyan was actually quite distressed. Although the conflict between the two people was gone and the matter involving thousands of people in Tongxin County was peacefully resolved, he was a little happy about winning the bet, but  There is also some distress.

    Fortunately, at this time, Yue Zhengjunxiong seemed to see that Qin Liyan had all the troubles, and took the lead in speaking to Qin Liyan:

    "General Qin, I have offended you a moment ago, please forgive me. Junxiong apologizes to the general here.

    "I was wrong just now, Junxiong admits it, and this time Junxiong lost the bet, he is convinced. From now on, I am happy that Junxiong will take you, General Qin, as the leader of the horse, and the leader of the horse will follow without any second thoughts!"  "

    Yue Zheng Junxiong's sudden attack immediately made Qin Liyan a little overwhelmed. He was still thinking about this issue. Unexpectedly, Yue Zheng Junxiong openly admitted defeat to him. This made him a little bit stuck. If he had known it,  I won¡¯t bet with him.

    "Captain Yue Zheng, we were both a little irrational just now. Let's stop this bet and let it pass!

    "This horse head is a matter of obedience. Lieutenant Yue Zheng, don't mention it anymore. Let's just pretend it didn't happen. We are all fighting for the Tang Dynasty and for His Majesty today."  You are not fighting for me. This is not appropriate. It is too much and not enough.

    After I said that I am just a captain, and my official position is much lower than that of your captain Zhechong, it is inappropriate for you to do this. If word spreads, it will insult your majesty, captain Yue Zheng, so that¡¯s it.  Well, let's end this matter here, let's not mention it anymore.

    From now on, things will be just like before. We can get along with each other as we should. There is no need to worry about the bet just now. I believe that everyone will not spread the bet just now and will not take it seriously.

    How can a general in the army be so childish and careless? Besides, if I had lost just now, I also believe that Lieutenant Yue Zheng, you would not be serious!  "

    Although Qin Liyan launched an offensive against Yue Zheng Junxiong from all aspects of justice and reason, he did not have to take it seriously.

      But this Yue Zheng Junxiong is just like what he said before. Some people are unreasonable and lack a lot of flexibility. Although he cannot deny that what Qin Liyan said makes sense, but  The reason for his character is that he has an uncompromising character.

    "General Qin, you don't have to worry about my feelings. I, Yue Zhengjunxiong, am a man who stands upright and can go back on my word.

    You¡¯re right, yes, if I had won just now, I wouldn¡¯t have done anything to you, but isn¡¯t this because I lost?

    "What didn't happen, no one can really know what would have turned out to be the best, and what has happened now.  We are no longer able to change history. You and I both know that history cannot be changed.

    And now that I lose, I have to be willing to admit defeat and bear the consequences of losing the bet, instead of covering up or changing it.

    General Qin, please stop talking. I, Lezheng Junxiong, am a man who can afford to lose. Since I lost, I will admit it. From now on, I, Lezheng Junxiong, will definitely follow your lead. When this happens, I will accept it.  Zheng Junxiong came to the door to plead guilty!  "

    This made Qin Liyan dumbfounded. The steps were placed in front of you, allowing you to easily go down to the ground. If you didn't go down, you would fly so fast that you knew there was a pit in front of you, but you still had to jump forward.  Aren't you making yourself miserable?

    At this time, Yue Zhengjunxiong is such a dead-headed person.  No matter how good Qin Liyan was, he tried to persuade him again.

    But Yue Zhengjunxiong, who left him speechless, was on the sidelines, regardless of Qin Liyan's persuasion beside him.  But he was looking at Qin Liyan indifferently, which made Qin Liyan really angry.  I want to beat up Yue Zhengjunxiong.

    But if Qin Liyan knew what Yue Zheng Junxiong was thinking at this time.  Then he would definitely not be able to help himself and give Yue Zhengjunxiong, who was pretending to be so serious in front of him, a good beating to relieve his anger.

    At this time, although Yue Zhengjunxiong was expressionless on the outside, there were a lot of thought movements in his heart.

    At this moment, what Yue Zhengjunxiong is thinking is: You really think that I, Yuezheng Junxiong, am stupid and can't turn around!

    "If that were the case, I wouldn't be the captain of the lower house."  I, Lezheng Toshio, can still see the signs.

    But I know my own shortcomings. I love to accept death. In fact, it¡¯s not that I love to accept death. It¡¯s because my personality is too impulsive and hot-tempered. It¡¯s easy to be stimulated by trivial things and become hot-headed.  Doing a lot of regrettable things.

    It¡¯s like admitting death. It¡¯s not that I want to admit it, but because of the impulse, I basically can¡¯t turn back. There is no way to turn back.  It would be better for me to admit death.

    If you use your hot face to stick to your cold butt, that's okay if it works. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. But if it doesn't work, then they become capricious villains, who do not have a firm stand and are easily impulsive.  , which is a typical target of criticism.

    That's why, once Yue Zhengjunxiong's head gets hot, he will probably do something that makes him regret. However, because he regrets it too much, he has been working as the captain of Zichong for more than ten years.  Not even a step up.

    But it is precisely because of his character that although he offended many people directly and indirectly and hindered his progress, it also allowed him to stay in the position of captain for many years with peace of mind.  , even several internal fights did not involve him, which meant that he was lucky in his misfortune, and it also dispelled his determination to make progress.

    But it¡¯s different now, even though he impulsively took out himself in order to embarrass Qin Liyan.

    But this also has advantages. In this way, Qin Liyan is tied to him.

    Although he is prone to brain congestion and acts impulsively, once this is tied to Qin Liyan, this shortcoming may turn into an advantage. A subordinate who is easy to control is very welcome.

    In the future, with Qin Liyan¡¯s support, maybe we can take another step forward and climb up.

    Yue Zheng Junxiong had this idea before. The people Da Sinong came into contact with were all people with limited potential. There was no one with such potential as Xiang Qin Liyan. He was backed by Zuowei General Qin Shubao. This is today's situation.  His Majesty's beloved general.

    Qin Liyan's promotion and fortune are already destined, it just depends on the time.

    Now it seems that Qin Liyan's path forward has begun, otherwise he would not be allowed to come to Xiaoguan to assist in defending the city. It is just a talk. Who would really do it?Seriously, who doesn't know that in Xiaoguan City, besides Captain Zhang Yang, you, Qin Liyan, have the highest status, and even Ran Hongzhi, the guard of Xiaoguan, has to step aside.

    As long as this battle plan is implemented smoothly, as long as the Xiao Pass is not lost, then Qin Liyan, as the top three figure in the Xiao Pass, will have military merit. He is destined to take a step forward.

    As for the capture of Xiaoguan, this is simply impossible in Yue Zhengjunxiong's consciousness. With Xiaoguan's current city defense, facing the Turkic cavalry who lack siege tools and experience, no matter how many people they come, they will not make much difference.  Used.

    It is impossible to say that Xiaoguan is invincible, but if you want to conquer Xiaoguan in a short time, especially now that it is stationed, after passing through the elites of the Tang Dynasty, people with supplies, and Xiaoguan with sufficient food and grass, you will not spend ten  The attacks that lasted for half a month and day and night were impossible to break through. The biggest problem for the Turks now is lack of time. The time they can leave them now is only a few days at most.

    If the Turks do not conquer Xiaoguan, Muma Gyeonggi Road, and Guannai Road within these few days, then they will wait to be surrounded by the Tang army and annihilated.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If I don¡¯t follow such a person with such a great future, doesn¡¯t that mean I am sick?

    Indeed, just like the steps you Qin Liyan gave me.  If I walked down the steps, absolutely no one would say anything, but I'm not sick.  Why should I go down? On the premise that I can have a brighter future with you, why should I go down?

    Facing the dead pig in front of him, Lezheng Junxiong is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.  Qin Liyan flew in and spit, but in the end it didn't make Lezheng Junxiong change his mind. However, although it didn't have much effect, it was not without gain. In the end, he gave up the idea of ??Lezheng Junxiong to plead guilty.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out out out of which, if it is really such a trivial matter, that Toshio Lezheng, who is the captain of the lower house, and has a higher official position than himself, should take the blame upon himself, then how will he be in the northern army in the future.  They must not be isolated by other generals and soldiers.

    After both of them finally made some concessions and compromises, today's negotiation finally ended. This made Qin Liyan work hard and hard. Why do I, the winner of the bet, feel like I lost? So  Tired.

    In this way, when Qin Liyan and Lezheng Junxiong arrived on the Xiaoguan city wall, they had already arrived earlier than Zhang Yang.  Ran Hongzhi and others were quite late. Zhang Yang and others saw the arrival of Qin Liyan and Yue Zhengjunxiong. Zhang Yang took the initiative to come out and asked Qin Liyan:

    "General Qin, how was your conversation with Lieutenant Yue Zheng?

    We thought that the most you could do was just talk for a while in the garrison and solve the problem!

    I didn¡¯t expect that two quarters of an hour would pass while you were talking like this.  This has been a long conversation. What did you talk about?

    I see you two walking together first, the problem must have a result!  "

    With Zhang Yang, Ran Hongzhi, Yu Wen Ruihao, Zhuge Haoqiong and others looking at him with gossip eyes, Qin Liyan was quite speechless and helpless. Who are these people? They just called each other brothers and sisters.  As soon as he is reincarnated, he will see his own excitement.

    "Alas! Lieutenant Yue Zheng and I have basically reached a consensus. What happened just now is in the past, so please don't mention it again!

    Now tell me, you have been on this city wall for so long, but you can¡¯t see anything. Why is it so quiet outside Xiaoguan?

    ¡°Hasn¡¯t the Turkic cavalry arrived yet?  How long has it been? Why are they moving so slowly?  "

    Although Qin Liyan said that the problem just now had been discussed and resolved with Yue Zhengjunxiong, based on Zhang Yang's understanding of Qin Liyan, it could be seen from his tone and expression that it was not what Qin Liyan said.  But he didn't expose it either.

    "Isn't that right? When the scout came to report just now, he was still saying that the Turkic cavalry was already twenty miles away from Xiaoguan and was charging towards Xiaoguan. However, it had been two quarters of an hour more.  Not even a ghost was seen, let alone a human being.

    At the speed of the Turkic cavalry's sprint, this area of ??only twenty miles would take more than a quarter of an hour at most. I really don't know what the Turks are doing. The marching speed is so slow. If I wait any longer, the day lilies will be cold.  No, they can't come either!  "

    Zhuge Haoqiong on the side complained that the Turkic cavalry came too slowly after listening to Qin Liyan's words.

    Just as Zhuge Haoqiong finished speaking, they who were standing on the Xiaoguan city wall felt a vibration coming from the city wall under their feet.

    Although this was not very obvious, it was a constant shock, which immediately made people think of what was going on.

    Zhang Yang, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Yue Zheng Junxiong, Yu Wen Ruihao, Zhuge Haoqiong and others no longer say so.He quickly ran to the pier of the city wall and looked beyond Xiaoguan to the flat ground.

    Sure enough, not far from Xiaoguan, within the sight of the human eye, countless ant-sized black shadows appeared densely.

    "General Qin, Captain Zhuge, it's true that people can't read. This thought appeared without thinking. It really means that Cao Cao has arrived!"

    Zhang Yang said after seeing that the thousands of Eastern Turkic cavalry that the scouts mentioned finally appeared at such a coincidental time.

    "That's right, Lieutenant Zhang, look at how obedient this Turkic cavalry is. You can hear that Grandpa Zhuge misses them and they are here.

    ??Look at how obedient this grandson is, but it¡¯s a pity that there are too many. It would be better if there were less. It¡¯s so much for me to kill grandpa like this!  "

    At this time, Zhuge Haoqiong also retorted after being laughed at by Zhang Yang in the scene after the Eastern Turkic cavalry appeared.

    "And Zhuge Haoqiong's rebuttal also shocked those who heard it. It was really like me calling my grandson, he came as soon as he said it.

    "Okay, look, what are these Turks doing? Why did they stop so far away from us?"

    After hearing this sound, Zhang Yang once again looked towards the defense line where the East Turkic cavalry was running.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: 1,000 people are densely packed, 10,000 people are boundless.

    Now it seems that these thousands of Eastern Turkic cavalry are parked outside Xiaoguan. Less than a mile away from Xiaoguan, they stretch for several miles. It is so spectacular. From this, you can imagine that if there are hundreds of thousands  The cavalry must be arranged in this way for dozens of miles.

    And at this time, just as the voice said, among the Eastern Turkic cavalry who had stopped so far away from Xiaoguan, one of them suddenly ran towards Xiaoguan. This made everyone wonder, what was he going to do?

    "Listen to the Han army on the opposite side. I, Astdeu Harper, now challenge you. I challenge you, Prince Consort of the Tang Dynasty. Zhang Yang, sacrifice your head to my Asteh clan, the Turkic General Asteh Grass Mud Horse."  The spirit in heaven!

    Zhang Yang, why don't you accept the challenge from me, Ashdewu Harper? If you are a man, come out and fight me for 300 rounds. If you don't dare, go back to the arms of Princess Xiangcheng. You only dare to sneak attack and hide.  How dare you, a scoundrel under a woman's skirt, dare to fight with me!  "(To be continued)!~!
