On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 535 Returning to Guanzhong
Dou's is now hoping that her daughter's belly will be strong enough to give birth to a son and a half for Cui Che.

After all, there is a 25-year age difference between Cui Che and Li Xiuning, which cannot be changed.

No matter how much Cui Che doted on her, if there were no children to rely on, Li Xiuning would eventually be sent to the royal nunnery to endure loneliness after being Cui Che for a hundred years.

Li Xiuning blushed when she saw the recipes her mother had prepared for her to prepare for a child. She lowered her voice and explained:
"Your Majesty thinks that her daughter is still young, and she will always withdraw in time at critical moments.

"Even if my daughter eats soup and medicine for three meals a day, if the king refuses to agree, how can she be pregnant?"

Dou said with a smile:

"Your Majesty takes pity on you so much, it can be seen that you did not marry the wrong person back then."

As she said that, Dou looked at Cui Che in the hall through the screen, and couldn't help thinking:
'If his father had allowed him to enter the house, would it have resulted in a marriage. '

Of course Dou has heard that when Cui Che was young, he practiced archery hard for himself, and because of his status, he was underestimated, so he worked hard and pursued fame.

It's just that some people miss it, and they really miss it.

Dou shook her head, dispelled all those messy thoughts, changed the subject, and chatted with her daughter about what she had seen and heard in Longyou.

In the main hall, Cui Che and his father-in-law Li Yuan exchanged cups, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

According to Cui Che's request, Li Yuan didn't invite many guests, but they, Weng and his son-in-law, had a drink together.

Even Li Xuanba, Li Yuanji, and Li Zhiyun, the three young brother-in-laws, Cui Che only met once after Li Yuan summoned them, and did not keep them as company.

Cui Che had no ill feeling toward Li Xuanba and Li Zhiyun, they were just implicated by Li Yuanji, after all, they couldn't be left alone and Li Yuanji should be driven away.

Li Yuanji's ugly appearance was disgusting not only to Dou, but also to Cui Che.

What displeased Cui Che even more was some of Li Yuanji's actions in the original time and space, including killing Chen Shanyi, the nurse who dissuaded him from doing evil.

Cui Che is not a visiting son-in-law, so he doesn't need to please the Yue family's brother-in-law.

Li Yuan also seemed to see that Cui Che didn't value his three sons very much, but it was not satisfactory to have Li Shimin who was loved by Cui Che and would be raised by his side.

Cui Che only stayed in Yong County for one night. Worried about the situation in Daxing, he left early the next morning and led his troops eastward.

In fact, Cui Che had already obtained the exact information about Daxing. Not long after he left, Yu Wenshu and others still found out about Cui Che's division of troops to rescue Longyou.

They reported to Murong Fuyun, but Cui Che was one step behind and failed to remind the other party in time.

During this period, Yu Wenshu and others also organized several night raids.

But Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Dou Jiande and others guarded the camp and the earth mountain.

At the same time, Yu Wenshu sent messengers to Hanchuan County for help.

Now Qi Wang Yang Hao has assembled tens of thousands of horses in Hanchuan County. Yu Wenshu hopes that Yang Hao can lead the army to the east and join him in attacking the Eastern Sui pawns outside Daxing City.

It's just that before Yang Hao's reply, he was the first to know that Cui Che had now broken the siege of Tianshui and ceased fighting with Tuyuhun.

Yu Wenshu was helpless, so he had to send a messenger to Hanchuan County again, and asked Yang Hao to stand still and guard Hanchuan.

In fact, Yang Hao didn't plan to send troops either. He stayed well in Hanzhong and was in a passionate relationship with his concubine Wei's sister Yuan Wei, so he didn't want to leave.

Besides, what should I do if I really want to encounter Cui Che's obstruction on the road.

Hanzhong is closer to Tianshui than Daxing, and Yang Hao also got the news of Cui Che's class first, let alone send troops.

Yu Wenshu knew that now that Cui Che had broken the siege of Tianshui, when he came back, it was time for the Eastern Sui army outside the city to launch a general offensive.

After more than a month of bombardment, not only the Daxing Palace in the north of the city was almost smashed into ruins, but even the city walls on the east and south sides collapsed.

Yu Wenshu never fought this kind of battle, and the stones of the Eastern Sui Dynasty seemed to be inexhaustible.

Of course, standing on the city wall, watching the peasants outside the city pushing, picking, and transporting stones to the earth hill without interruption, let alone how many people are working in the quarry now.

Yu Wenshu also knew exactly where the problem was:

At the beginning, he should not have abandoned the people of Weibei in order to reduce his own burden and increase the consumption of Cui Che's army food, so that the people of Weibei were united in the same hatred and determined to win Daxing for Cui Che.

After another day of bombardment, finally there were no more rocks flying overhead. Yu Wenshu found Gao Jiong and asked:
"I want to retreat to Hanchuan and assist the king in defending Hanzhong. Duke Qi really wants to stay in Daxing?"

Yu Wenshu thought that after such a long time, Gao Jiong might change his mind, but Gao Jiong was determined to die, he said frankly:
"I won't leave. Someone has to preside over the defense of Daxing. As for Hanchuan County, Mr. Xu will take care of it."

After the two handed over the power, Yu Wenshu led the cavalry away from Ximen that night.

Because Cui Che adopted the strategy of encircling three ques and one, there was no heavy siege on the west side, and a few sentry cavalry were scattered here and there, just to prevent the opponent from mobilizing troops from the west gate to attack the camp.

Now it was found that hundreds of cavalry soldiers went out of the city at night, rode their horses and swung their whips, and went straight to the west.

Cheng Yaojin, the battalion commander in the south, didn't know who had run away, and he couldn't figure out whether the other party had abandoned the city and fled, or went out to ask for help. Fortunately, he didn't need to worry about these things anymore.

On the second day after Yu Wenshu fled, Cui Che crossed the Wei River again and returned to Weinan.

When I went there, there were 15 cavalry and [-] military horses. When I returned, the cavalry did not decrease much, but more than half of the military horses were lost.

However, Cui Che still thinks that this business is a good deal. If the army horses are gone, they can buy and breed again, but they can't lose the hearts of the people in Longyou.

Cui Che asked the cavalry to rest in Chang'an County for the time being. After such a back and forth, the soldiers were exhausted and refused to fight again.

Li Xiuning and the mother and daughter of the Gao family who were picked up from Gaoling County are now placed in Chang'an City by Cui Che.

He only brought some of his personal guards to the east camp where Qin Qiong was, and urgently recruited Dou Jiande, the commander of the north camp, and Cheng Yaojin, the commander of the south camp, to discuss matters.

After Cui Che carefully asked about the big and small things that happened inside and outside Daxing during his departure, Cheng Yaojin also reported to Cui Che in due course that hundreds of riders left the city at night, and made his own speculation:
"This move may be fleeing, but I don't know the identity of that person."

Although most of the three city walls collapsed, the defenders sent people to patrol the collapsed places at night to prevent the Eastern Sui infantry from smearing and attacking. Therefore, the secret work inside the city still could not get in touch with the outside of the city.

After all, not everyone is a wheat iron stick, able to climb over walls as if walking on flat ground.

Cui Che agreed with Cheng Yaojin's conjecture, since no reinforcements arrived after besieging the city for so long, where else could he go to ask for it now.
