An hour is not long, it comes in a blink of an eye.

Youzhou City, twenty miles northwest.

This place is ablaze.

The night sky is illuminated.

It's like daytime.

That is the effect caused by more than 5 torches.

The [-] cavalry from the Liao Kingdom who had been slaughtered from Jimen Pass finally arrived, and stopped twenty miles northwest of Youzhou City, without continuing to advance.

The [-]-strong army was led by a silver-robed general called "General Huyan".

At this moment, General Huyan was standing on a higher hillside. From here, he could overlook Youzhou City, which was twenty miles away.

The waning moon hangs high in the night sky, and the stars are few and far between.

A gust of cold night wind blew, and General Huyan's white robe rustled in the wind.

"General Huyan, please look. The flames in Youzhou City are soaring into the sky. We can see them from twenty miles away. This means that General Nalan and the others have successfully captured the gate of Youzhou City!"

A deputy general, standing behind General Huyan, pointed at Youzhou City shrouded in the light of fire in the distance, looking very excited and urgent.

"Yes, general, don't hesitate, let's send troops quickly, annihilate those [-] Liang troops in one fell swoop, and then enter the city!" Another deputy general also urged.

However, General Huyan did not respond to the two lieutenants.

He stood proudly on the hillside, the cold night wind still blowing his silver shirt. After looking at Youzhou City in the distance for a while, he calmly said:

"Send 500 people to act as pioneers, and first go to explore the reality of Youzhou City."

"The last general takes orders!"

Although the lieutenants were unwilling, they still went down to make arrangements.

After about two quarters of an hour.

The 500-man vanguard returned safely.

The pioneer officer rushed to the hillside and was about to greet him, but General Huyan waved his hand and asked in a calm, calm and calm tone: "Tell me everything you saw, and don't miss a single word."

"The general will obey..."

"..."

At this moment, the pioneer officer began to tell.

According to him, the Liao army lurking in Youzhou City, led by General Nalan, not only captured four city gates, but also severely damaged the Liang army in the garrison camp to the west of the city.

Because, on the top of Youzhou City, the flag of the Liao Kingdom was hung.

There was also a fire in the marching camp in the west of the city, and there were corpses among them, all wearing Liang Jun's armor.

After everyone listened to the Pioneer Officer's story, the lieutenants all rubbed their hands with excitement, wishing they could attack Youzhou City immediately.

But General Huyan remained unmoved.

He first stared carefully at the vanguard officer for a while, then frowned and asked:
"Have you looked carefully? The flag hanging on the top of Youzhou City is really my Daliao flag?"

"Reporting to the general, it is absolutely true!"

"The soldiers on the four gates of Youzhou are also sons of my Daliao?"

"The last general once chatted with the soldiers on the city tower. Judging from the clothes and accent, they are indeed our soldiers from Daliao."

"Have you ever met General Nalan?"

"I haven't seen it. According to the soldiers at the top of the city, General Nalan was unfortunately hit by an arrow when he was attacking the garrison camp. He is now in a coma."

"Well... have you ever visited the city?"

"I haven't entered the city yet," said the vanguard officer.

"Why?"

"Reporting to General, even though thousands of Liang troops were wiped out after breaking through the garrison camp, there are still more than [-] Liang troops fleeing and hiding in the dark. If we rashly open the city gate, I'm afraid..."

"It makes sense." General Hu Yan nodded.

"General, without further ado, let's set off quickly!" a deputy general urged.

"Yes, although there are more than [-] Liang troops hiding in the dark, we have a full [-] troops, and we are afraid that they will not show up." Another lieutenant general said.

"..."

Finally, [-] cavalry set off again, heading towards Youzhou City, which was twenty miles away.

It's almost there, so the march is slow.

The lieutenants, as well as the ordinary soldiers, had some free time to chat.

After learning that the four gates of Youzhou City had been captured, the soldiers of the Liao Kingdom were extremely excited. It was so satisfying to win the first battle and capture an important military town without any effort.

"Haha, I've said it before, people like Liang Guo are all idiots and idiots!"

"Thousands of our troops have been hiding in the bustling streets of Ping'an City for more than half a year, but they didn't notice it at all!"

"There is also the Jimen Pass. Although it is a natural barrier, there are always greedy fools among them who can't stand it. They are bribed by us to help us break through that natural barrier..."

"I heard that the people in the Central Plains are very bad. The salt, tea, wine, ironware, etc. traded to us are all the worst... Hey, I will definitely shoot him a few times when I enter Youzhou City this time. Ten catties of good salt and good tea!"

"I've never seen the market before. After all this time, you just robbed a few dozen kilograms of salt tea? Look at your worthless look... At least, you have to rob him of a few hundred kilograms!"

"Haha, what kind of good thing is salt tea wine? We have taken Youzhou City, these things will be ours, you stupid young people don't understand what is a real good thing."

The surrounding soldiers immediately asked for advice, what is the real good thing?
"Of course they are women from the Central Plains! You don't know, the women from the Central Plains are so watery and slippery... This time I will snatch at least three or five of them back and train them to be female slaves, hahaha..."

"..."

The soldiers of the Liao Kingdom burst into laughter. They had already imagined the scene after entering the city later.

They can steal all the treasures in the city.

They can also snatch all the women in the city. When they think of the beautiful Central Plains women, they howl with excitement, wishing they could grow a pair of wings and fly into Youzhou City.

In this way, the [-]-strong army slowly approached Youzhou City.

Finally, the army stopped half a mile away from the tall city.

General Hu Yan was very cautious, and even though he had come to this point, he was still not completely reassured. After ordering the troops to stop where they were, he personally led several lieutenants to circle around the entire Youzhou City.

Then I personally went to see the garrison camp in the west of the city.

In the garrison camp, the fire was so intense that it was impossible to go inside for inspection.

Back in front of the city gate, General Huyan personally chatted with the defenders at the top of the city, but found no problem. The other party answered fluently in the language of Liao.

Finally, he suggested that he want to take a look at General Nalan.

But the soldiers at the top of the city said that General Nalan had been hit by an arrow and had fainted and had not yet woken up, so he could not come to see him.

"Since you were hit by an arrow and are still unconscious, you can go up to the tower and have a look with me." General Hu Yan made such a request to the soldiers on the city wall in a leisurely manner.

Naturally, the soldiers on the city would not agree, saying that General Nalan's life was in danger and he could not be moved at will.

"In that case, I will be waiting here. Whenever General Nalan sees me, I will enter the city!"

"..."

General Huyan calmed down and ordered someone to bring an imperial chair and sit there comfortably.

The soldiers on the top of the city tried hard to persuade him to enter the city, and they almost knelt down in front of him, but General Huyan was not moved at all.

His gesture immediately aroused dissatisfaction among the Liao army officers and soldiers.

The lieutenants looked at each other and then shook their heads slightly. Their general was good at everything, but he was too cautious.

The ordinary soldiers were waiting to enter the city to rob property and women, but they ended up wasting their lives here, which really made them feel unhappy!
