A few days later, information was returned from the detailed work in Xudu. As expected by Yan Liang and Xu Shu, Yuan Tan continued to lead his army south to attack Nanyang, regardless of the fact that the grain in Fengcang was burned.
But this time Yuan Tan also learned his lesson. Before leaving, he urgently mobilized 5,000 troops and horses from Luoyang to strengthen the defenses in places outside Xudu such as Zhaoling to prevent Yan Liang from making a sneak attack from Xinye with his light cavalry.
When Yuan Tan raised his troops to march south, he ordered Xin Ping, who stayed behind in Xudu, to frantically search for food and grass from the homes of the people in various counties, so that his 40,000-strong army could continue his southern expedition for military needs.
A few days later, Yuan Tan's army marched towards Ye County again, aiming directly at Duyang.
And long before Yuan Tan marched into Nanyang, Yan Liang had led his army to Duyang City in advance.
Considering that Yuan Tan's grain and grass were burned, in order to supply the military, he would madly plunder the countryside after entering the country to support the war. In order not to leave a grain of grain for Yuan Tan, Yan Liang ordered in advance that all areas north of Wancheng should be destroyed. All the people in the county moved south to avoid providing food and grass to Yuan Tanzi.
Duyang City is located in the northernmost part of Yan Liang's territory. There are more than 4,000 people in the city. The day after Yan Liang led his army to arrive, he ordered that all 4,000 people be moved south.
Almost overnight, a county town in Nuoda became an empty city.
Wenpin and other generals all thought that Yan Liang planned to block Yangcheng and use it as a barrier to the north of Wancheng. However, they did not expect that Yan Liang did not do anything to strengthen the city wall after moving away the people, but instead urged his soldiers day and night. Rush to build a secret project.
Yan Liang knew very well that the Duyang City Wall was short and old, even if it was strengthened. It was also difficult to resist the attack of Yuan Tan's 40,000 troops.
"Besides, he had no intention of sticking to Duyang at all. All he had to do was use this empty city to carry his desire for revenge. Yuan Tan, who was approaching fiercely, struck him in the head and dampened his spirit again.
At dusk that day, Yuan Tan's 40,000-strong army finally appeared north of Duyang. And he approached the lower village of Duyang City very arrogantly.
Yan Liang stood at the top of the city and looked at the enemy camp not far away, but he saw that the sky was blocked by flags and flags, and the guns were buried in the dense forest. It was as if there were thousands of troops coming.
Yan Liang certainly knew that Yuan Tan was definitely not bluffing, and he had brought him to Duyang City this time. There are less than 5,000 infantry and cavalry, but Yuan's army outside the city has 40,000 people, ten times the enemy. This is definitely a terrifying number.
"My Lord, there are so many enemy soldiers that it is difficult to engage in a head-on confrontation. Why not let the general lead his army to rob the camp tonight, and take advantage of the fact that he has come a long way and is unprepared? Maybe we can dampen his spirit."
Seeing that the enemy is powerful. Although Wenpin had some scruples, he was not afraid, but calmly offered a plan.
Yan Liang shook his head and pointed his riding whip at the enemy camp, "Look, Yuan Jun's camp is well-organized. He has mastered the art of setting up a camp, which is far better than the previous attack by Yuan Tan. I guess this guy has learned the lesson from the last time." , This time Zhang He is used as a general, so that we can have such a strong military force. According to this situation, there is probably no chance of winning. "
Yan Liang rejected Wenpin's plan.
Wenpin suddenly realized something and admired Yan Liang's sharp vision, but he frowned and said: "There are good generals in Yuan's army, and the strength is ten times that of mine. If he surrounded Duyang City, wouldn't my lord be in deep trouble?" If you are in danger, please think twice."
Although Wenpin didn't say it explicitly, he was tactfully suggesting that Yan Liang withdraw from Duyang and not take unnecessary risks.
"When did I say that I would stick to Duyang?" Yan Liang asked with a smile.
Wenpin was stunned and suddenly became a little confused. He thought to himself, my lord, if you don't want to stick to Duyang City, if you just want to evacuate the people in the city, the county magistrate can do it with just one order, so why bother to go all the way to personally lead it? Thousands of soldiers and horses came hard.
"My lord, I'm sorry for my stupidity, but my lord means" Wenpin raised his hands and asked.
Yan Liang was about to use Wenpin, so he planned to inform him of his intention. However, at this moment, a horse came galloping from outside the city, claiming to be the envoy sent by Yuan Tan, and came to give Yan Liang a letter of war.
Yan Liang then asked the messenger to be put in.
Not long after, the messenger came up to the city with a high-spirited attitude. When he saw Yan Liang, he showed no courtesy and only handed over a letter of challenge.
When all the generals saw that the envoy was rude, they all looked angry.
Yan Liang did not think it strange, and did not accept the letter of challenge. He only said: "I would like to see what Mr. Yuan's literary talents are, so just think of it."
The envoy then unfolded the letter of war and read it loudly in front of the officers and soldiers of Yan Jun at the head of the city.
As the generals listened, they became angry and gnashed their teeth.
It was not a letter of war at all, it was just an attempt to persuade him to surrender. As the eldest son of the King of Wei, Yuan Tan used his noble status as the eldest son of the King of Wei and his superior attitude to enumerate Yan Liang's various crimes of betraying the Yuan family, and ordered Yan Liang to open the city in a commanding tone. surrender.
Only in this way will Yuan Tanfang consider mitigating Yan Liang's crimes. Otherwise, if Yan Liang persists in resisting, his army will raze Duyang to the ground, and those who dare to follow Yan Liang to "help the evil do evil" will be defeated after the city is broken. Kill them regardless.
Yuan Tan's letter of persuasion to surrender was really extremely arrogant, as if he could crush Yan Liang to death as easily as squeezing an ant to death.
Wenpin and other generals on the left and right were all furious, and Wenpin even drew his sword angrily, intending to kill the envoy.
The envoy was startled, hurriedly restrained his arrogance, and shouted: "The two countries are at war, don't kill the envoy!"
What kind of bullshit is "when two countries are at war, don't kill the envoys"? It's not like Yan Liang has never done it before when he fought Ma Chao last time.
Listening to Yuan Tan's arrogant surrender letter, Yan Liang's anger was burning like a raging fire.
However, he was not completely consumed by his anger. He remained calm despite the anger of the generals.
Yan Liang waved his hand to stop the impulsive generals.
The generals did not dare to take action without Yan Liang's instructions.
Yan Liang looked at the envoy and said calmly: "Young Master Yuan is indeed very impressive. If you go back and tell him that you want to take my Yan Liang's life, just come here. There is no need to use such childish tactics to intimidate me. If I, the general If I was afraid, I wouldn¡¯t have broken with the Yuan family back then.¡±
After saying that, Yan Liang waved his hand to signal the messenger to get out of here.
The messenger was afraid that Yan Liang would change his mind and killed him. He was in a hurry to escape to the city and fled Duyang City in a hurry.
"Looking at the leaving Yuan Jun envoy, everyone was indignant and suspicious in their hearts.
They all couldn't understand that with their lord's temperament, he could tolerate Yuan Tan being so insulting. This was simply incredible.
The Lord humiliated his ministers to death. Wenpin couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "My lord, Yuan Tan'er has gone too far to bully others. Please fight to the death with that kid."
Wenpin said this, and the other generals also generously asked for battle.
The generals were angry and their fighting spirit was high. When Yan Liang saw this, he was secretly proud of himself.
This is what he wants.
Yuan Tan was short of food. He came to attack this time for a quick victory. What he feared most was that Yan Liang would clear the country and defend the city. The extremely humiliating letter of war just now was clearly a way to provoke the general.
Yan Liang had already expected it, and the reason why he asked the envoy to read it in person was to use Yuan Tan's hand. To arouse the indignation of the generals.
Judging from the current situation, Yan Liang¡¯s goal has been achieved.
Yan Liangsui said loudly: "Yuan Tan looks down on us like this, how can I swallow this sigh of relief? Don't worry, today's humiliation. I will make Yuan Tan pay back double the amount right away. However, Before that, we have one more important thing to do.¡±
Wenpin thought that Yan Liang was about to order an attack, so he hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Please tell me, my lord."
Yan Liang said two words slowly: "Abandon the city."
Abandoned city?
Hearing this, all the generals below were stunned.
"Didn't I say this a long time ago? If I want to give our Young Master Yuan a big welcome gift, I will naturally keep my word"
As Yan Liang spoke, a sly smile quietly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The generals became more and more confused.
? #####
The plan to provoke the general failed, and Yuan Tan became angry. At dawn the next day, Yuan Tan ordered the entire army to have a feast. Tens of thousands of troops, armed with ladders, rams and other siege equipment, rushed towards the north gate of Duyang with great momentum.
Although Yuan Tan came with an angry heart for revenge, he also kept calm. He knew very well that Yan Liang's ability should not be underestimated. Therefore, although he was determined to win, he was also prepared to fight a brutal siege battle. Mental preparation.
However, what surprised Yuan Tan was that when his tens of thousands of troops arrived in front of the city, they found that the entire Duyang City was deserted. Not only was there not a single soldier in sight at the front of the city, not even a single soldier was visible. There are no flags in sight.
What makes Yuan Tan even more suspicious is that the city gate of Duyang North Gate has been opened wide, and the suspension bridge has been lowered long ago. The only thing left is that the people are lined up to welcome you, so they can create a scene of Duyang welcoming you.
"Could it be that Yan Liang was really frightened by my military power and abandoned the city?"
Yuan Tan could not help but flash this exciting idea in his mind.
"My lord, Yan Liang may have planned an empty city to lure the enemy. If we lead the army into the city rashly, it would be bad if we fall into an ambush."
Zhang He, who was equally suspicious next to him, still remained calm.
Yuan Tan thought it was right, so he did not dare to be careless. While he ordered the entire army to prepare for the attack, he sent a small team of scouts into the city to conduct reconnaissance.
Half an hour later, the reconnaissance results made Yuan Tan relieved.
The entire Duyang City is indeed an empty city. Not only is there no trace of Yan Liang's soldiers, but not even all the people are left.
Yuan Tan was still worried and sent out several teams of scouts to expand the scope of reconnaissance from inside the city to outside the city.
In the afternoon, Yuan Tan finally got a result that reassured him.
Twenty miles south of Duyang City, the scouts discovered more than 4,000 Yan troops, who should be Yan Liang's troops who had withdrawn from Duyang.
Yuan Tan was relieved now. He believed that Yan Liang was really afraid of his powerful army and had to choose to withdraw from Duyang City with low walls.
Yuan Tan then led an army of 10,000 to Duyang City. The rest of the army followed the city and went to the stronghold, and sent various troops and horses to the fields around Duyang to plunder military supplies, food and grass.
Before he knew it, it was already night, and Yuan Tan and his exhausted soldiers had fallen asleep in Duyang City.
They didn¡¯t know that in the east of Yangcheng City, deep in the dense forest, five hundred pairs of ghostly eyes were staring fiercely at the city shrouded in the night.
They have been lurking here for a whole day.
Unconsciously, it was already the third watch of the night, and Yan Liang glanced up at the dark sky, with a ferocious sneer in his blade-like eyes.
"The time has come, let's do it."
