    Nan Jiyun is on horseback.  There were a total of 800 elite warriors beside him. Long before the night attack, and after Ye Chang and Gong Fu made an appointment for the battle, they had already left the main battlefield.  They took the road to the west, boarded the large ship that had been prepared, arrived at the east of the mouth of the Liaohe River, and then found a shoal to land. They traveled day and night and went straight to Anshi Prefecture. This was Ye Chang's initial tactical arrangement. They had few soldiers. If the Khitans failed,  plan, then he would rely on the advantage of sea transportation to transport his troops directly to the north of Jian'an Prefecture City, bypassing the large Khitan troops, and capture Anshi Prefecture, forcing the Khitans to return reinforcements.  Although the Khitan people were nomadic in nature and even brought the old, weak, women and children with them during the southern expedition, in Anshi Prefecture, they still collected what they looted along the way and left some manpower to guard them.  For the Khitan people, these properties are their base camp and must be saved.  Ye Chang¡¯s original plan was to contain the Khitans under the city of Jian¡¯an Prefecture, while Nan Jiyun led an elite infantry force to raid Anshi Prefecture¡ªJili Prefecture¡¯s army lacked horses, so they could only use infantry.  However, Sala's defeat at the nameless river contributed more than 1,600 horses to the Jilizhou Army, which greatly improved the mobility of the Jilizhou Army. Therefore, Ye Chang reduced Nan Jiyun's troops.  , and more horses were added, allowing him to rush to Anshi Prefecture at full speed.  "At this time, I don't know what is going on with the war in Jian'an Prefecture. The news brought by Gong Fu is that the Khitan has 60,000 coalition troops from various ministries. Although each ministry has its own agenda, the number of our troops is too small after all. It will not be easy to win. I am afraid that we will succeed or not.  The key is on my side In this case, when I come to Anshi Prefecture, I will not only threaten the Khitan people's retreat and force them to lift the siege of Anzhou, but also seize Anshi Prefecture, otherwise, the Khitan people may not return to the army."  Because he could not know the overall situation of the battlefield at this time, Nan Jiyun did not know that his army had won a great victory. He was always proud, thinking that he was the key to the battle. He looked around and saw that the sergeants were in good spirits.  , then said: "Don't cherish the horse power, let's eat and drink right away. We must arrive before night." These soldiers have been training for a long time, so they don't feel too tired, but the horses can't stand it. Fortunately, one person has two horses, and one person has two horses.  When the horse gets tired, he changes to another horse.  They rolled all the way north, naturally alarming many local people. Most of these people were a mixture of different ethnic groups. Seeing their huge momentum, they just thought that the Khitans were coming, and they all evaded. No one dared to come out to ask about the situation.  Not long after, they came to the road where the Khitans went south. Different from the previous villages on the seaside, this place had been harmed by the Khitans. Some villages were slaughtered to the point where no chickens or dogs were left. Seeing the miserable situation here, Nan Jiyun  I can't help feeling pity.  After a long journey, even though he was leading elite troops, they were all exhausted at this time.  When everyone took a break in a village that had been destroyed by the Khitans, Nan Jiyun looked around and sighed.  "The imperial court abandoned this place, causing the people here to suffer this disaster. This is the crime of all the princes of the imperial court." He couldn't help but said: "When we come here today, we will avenge this blood revenge for the people of Liaodong and give them peace." By his side  Fan Chongwu heard this and said: "When we were in the capital, we thought it would be very difficult to be bullied by the Goguryeo people, but we never thought that these Khitan herdsmen were even more cruel than the Goguryeo people. Fortunately, Yesima came to Liaodong. If it hadn't been like this,  We are afraid that something like this will happen to us again." "Most of the elites following Nan Jiyun, like Fan Chongwu, were Han Chinese from the original capital. Hearing this, they nodded one by one.  I am both happy and sad for the people here.  Needless to say, the Han people in Jili Prefecture under the rule of Ye Chang are proud and proud. Even the non-Han people are living a better life now than before.  With the increase in the consumption power of a large population due to the increase in income, the Hu people can also gain considerable profits from grazing cattle, sheep and raising livestock. Not to mention that Ye Chang also consciously opened schools and recruited the children of the Hu people to enroll - this kind of free education  The purpose is to assimilate the next generation of Hu people.  This is a conspiracy. Most Hu people also hope that their children can learn Chinese and pass the Jilizhou Chinese Proficiency Test in the future to obtain the status of a naturalized Han.  After all, there was not much talk of national identity at this time. The Hu people admired and admired the culture and economy of the Han people, and there was not much resistance to naturalization.  "Everyone thinks so, that's right." Nan Jiyun said: "When we arrive in Anshi Prefecture, everyone must not forget that if we do not defeat the Khitans, we in Jili Prefecture will also face the same situation." "Exactly  "Kill all the Khitan slaves," Fan Chongwu shouted.  "Kill all the shepherd slaves" and the others also shouted.  Everyone¡¯s spirits were lifted, and the fatigue caused by the long journey faded away.  Seeing that everyone was cheering up again, Nan Jiyun waved his hand and said: "It's not too late, let's continue." At this time, less than thirty miles behind them, Di Lie ordered: "Let's go back to Anshi Prefecture" "Great Khan, everyone  You haven't had a good rest yet" "If you haven't had a good rest, you have to leave. The Tang Dynasty should have calmed down by now. Do you want to wait here for the Tang Dynasty to attack?" Di Lie's eyes could almost spit fire. He managed so hard.  Gathering the defeated troops, the 60,000 allied troops are still following him.There are only less than 20,000 people on the side. Among them, the Khitan people, in addition to 4,000 warriors, are more than 5,000 old, weak, women and children. Even if there are many Khitan people and horses, how many people can grab the horses during the night attack? Therefore, he  The tribe suffered a greater blow than he imagined.  For the current plan, only after returning to Anshi Prefecture, annexing the tribes that are dependent on him, and reorganizing the tribe can he regain some strength.  He even decided to abandon the city immediately after arriving in Anshi Prefecture, escort his belongings back to Gaimou Prefecture, and rest for some time near the Liao River with abundant water and grass, and then annex the nearby small tribes. After three to five years, his strength would be restored.  , and then consider the issue of going south.  The premise is that he can avoid Ye Chang's pursuit.  "The profuse sweat can be endured by humans, but not by horses. These horses are our foundation, and these are the only ones we have left If they are all exhausted, how can we return to Gaimou Prefecture?" Another person said  Jin Yan said, "Gong Fu next to him cursed in his heart, the man was almost dead, who cares about the horse, but he had made a big mistake before, and now that he could save a life, no one had time to care about him, so he did not dare to speak out.  "I allow you to grab as many horses as you want after returning to Anshizhou." Dilie said, "You can grab horses, women, and children as long as you want them." Hearing this sentence, the lost Khitan people finally lost their morale.  Shake up a little, speed up the horse, and rush forward.  Not far away, someone suddenly exclaimed: "Why are there so many hoofprints on the ground?" "We have people coming and going, so it's normal to have horse hoofprints on the ground." Someone responded.  "Something's wrong, something's wrong. These hoofprints are very fresh. They're obviously not very old, and they're all heading north, towards Anshi Prefecture I can't tell the number, but it won't be less than a few.  One hundred horses, how can we have such a large manpower?" The person who was the first to realize something was wrong said again.  At first it was just a private discussion, but later, when the person who realized something was wrong wanted to understand the meaning, he was shocked and rushed to Di Lie: "Big sweat, big sweat, these hoof prints on the ground." Di Lie had something on his mind.  Therefore, I did not notice this detail, but when someone reminded me, I immediately realized that the situation was not good: Doesn't this mean that a large group of people is heading towards Anseong?  At this time, in this area, the large group of people could not be Khitan people, so who could it be?  No matter who it is, it means that Anshi Prefecture is in danger. "Quick, quick." This time, without Di Lie's urging, the Khitan people rushed north as hard as they could. The battle in Jian'an Prefecture was already a disastrous defeat. The property in Anshi Prefecture is theirs.  The hope of supporting the next winter, if these properties are also taken away, it means that their tribe will be unable to recover.  It¡¯s a matter of life, and their speed is faster than that of Nan Jiyun and others.  "We are still about thirty miles away from the opponent." "The opponent rested in this village for a while and ate some food. We are still twenty-five miles behind them." "We are only twenty miles away from the opponent." Having dealt with the Tang people for a long time, the Khitan  People also use the Tang people's metering units. Almost every once in a while, the person who is best at tracking among them will report to Di Lie.  The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, but by the end of Shen Shi, Di Lie knew that it would be difficult for him to catch up.  Among his men, there have been more than one cases where horses were too tired to get up, and the old, weak, women and children who escaped have been left behind by him.  The only thing we can place hope on is that Anshi is a famous city of Goguryeo and can be defended "Anshi City is a famous city of Goguryeo. At the time, Emperor Taizong personally conquered the city and had many famous generals in his hands. He fought against the Goguryeo people here. Although they were defeated.  Goguryeo's 150,000 reinforcements failed to break through Anshi City. They fought from June to September. Because the severe winter was approaching, Emperor Taizong had to withdraw his troops. " Looking at Anshi City from a distance, Nan Jiyun said slowly:  "It's not easy to capture this city." He only had 800 men in his hands, and dozens of people were left behind along the way. With this small number of men, it was impossible to storm the city.  "I know, Liang Wanchun. Some people in Goguryeo say that he shot Taizong in the eye. When Taizong retreated, he went to the city to worship him. Taizong respected his bravery and gave him 200 pieces of silk." Fan Zhongwu Dao followed him.  "It's nonsense. I'm afraid it's the Silla maids who are spreading rumors." Nan Jiyun snorted and said, "Fifth brother once said that the Silla maids are used to misidentifying their ancestors and spreading rumors. They are just afraid that they will  Are you bragging about Liang Wanchun of Goguryeo as being from Silla? You don't want to think about it. The reason why Emperor Taizong went eastward was because the Goguryeo people were eager to attack Silla." Nan Jiyun was suspected of bragging for Li Shimin, but Fan Chongwu listened.  Deque nodded, after all, the values ????at this time were like this: "Speaking of which, our Ye Sima is quite like Emperor Taizong. We couldn't bear the suffering of the people, so we raised troops to Liaodong." When these words spread, it would be treason. Nan Jiyun glared at him: "  Don't talk nonsense, don't cause trouble for fifth brother With such a glib mouth, it's better to think carefully."Ichiban, how should we break this city?" "Simple, if the enemy comes, it will be difficult for us to attack, but look at this city, the gates are unlocked, and there are almost no guards at the top of the city. Let's send dozens of people over.  , just occupy a city gate, and then break in. " "It's that easy. If I leave it to you, can you do it?  "I am not as brave as Ambassador Nan to occupy the city gate. If I can hold on for a long time, I will not be able to catch it If Ambassador Nan responds quickly, it will be no problem." Nan Jiyun hesitated for a while. He was considerate of the soldiers and never bullied others, so he  Being loved by the soldiers, Fan Chongwu became a little anxious when he saw him hesitating: "Ambassador Nan can't trust someone?  Ambassador Nan can kill Sala, and I can also seize the city of Anshi." When he said this, he clearly had his own ideas in his heart. Nan Jiyun laughed after hearing this: "In that case, I won't let you go there with forty people.  "Ask you how to take the city, just take it." Fan Chongwu was overjoyed. He recruited people who were close to him, all of whom were like him and were Han people from Liaodong who were originally in Duli, Beisha or Qingnipu. They first arrived at a  In the small village, he "robbed" some local people's clothes, took off his Jili army clothes, and then changed his hair bun to look like a Goguryeo or Shiwei person. Then he whistled and swaggered  Then they marched towards Anshi City. The Khitan left only 500 young men and 3,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people who couldn't run. They didn't have much vigilance at all at this time, so they had an absolute advantage in the south.  The defenders at the top of the city saw the forty men and two horses roaring towards them. Although they sent more than twenty people to intercept them, they did not close the city gate. Nan Jiyun in the distance saw this detail in the telescope,  He was immediately overjoyed. He only regretted that he was not among Fan Chongwu and others. Otherwise, he could kill them all with just one strike and rush into the city gate. Now it was up to him to see if Fan Chongwu and others could survive the interception.  , entered the city ¡°What do you do and why are you here?  "Nan Jiyun was worried here, and Fan Chongwu was also greeted and questioned over there. "We are from Wugu City. We heard that they are recruiting people here, so we came here to join us," Fan Chongwu shouted. "He has been a soldier for a long time.  The official Jili Army soldier is no longer the reckless boy who was at a loss when something happened. He has lived in the capital for more than 20 years and is proficient in Goguryeo, so he only used Goguryeo to intercept the people.  They are all local Goguryeo people in Anshi City. The real Khitan people are all in the city, so they have long guessed their identities from the clothes of Fan Chongwu and others. Now they hear him speak a very pure Goguryeo dialect, and even more  There is no doubt about it. ¡°Coming from Wugu City?  Where can there be such good horses in Wugu City?" One person muttered: "In my opinion, you should be the horse thieves over there." "Who said we are horse thieves? We are the warriors in the village." Intercepted by Fan Chongwu.  The reporter laughed. Since the withdrawal of the Tang Dynasty, the local Goguryeo people's political situation has been deteriorating. Many villages are living a life of half-farming and half-suffering. They call them warriors in the villages, but they are actually another name for horse thieves. "Since they came to vote,  Then go into town.  Someone said: "There have been fewer people coming to vote these days. Last month, people came to vote almost every day."  " Fan Chongwu and others were waiting to enter the city. Suddenly one of the interceptors frowned, pointed at the person behind Fan Chongwu and said: "Wait a minute."
