Chapter 665
"Did the Han army really fly up?" Ashina asked again.

Tuhisai smiled.This is already the fifth time that Azhena asked this question, and it made him a little annoyed.Still, he nodded vigorously.He understood Ashina's feelings, and he also found it inconceivable, even though he saw it with his own eyes, even though it had been a day and a night.

"It's true, I watched three warriors fly up to the fort with my own eyes."

Ajina wanted to say more, but Doros interrupted him with a wave of his hand. "Okay, after talking so much, don't you just want to know how they flew up? When Liang Xiao comes back, if you ask him face to face, wouldn't it be more useful than talking about it now?"

Ajina felt embarrassed by Doros, and didn't ask any more questions.He put away Wu Gong's head and the list of casualties, and raised his eyebrows.

"Please summon the leaders of the Cypriots, I want to pass the good news to them."

Tuhisai immediately agreed.This time he followed Liang Xiao on the expedition and won the Bingling Fortress in one fell swoop, which not only opened his eyes, but also gained benefits.Liang Xiao will entrust him with the task of defending the Bingling Fortress. In other words, this main road leading to the grassland will be controlled by him and the Han people in the future. His own strength is definitely not enough. Let me take this opportunity to show it off. The bravery of the Han army and the close relationship between him and Liang Xiao are of great benefit to him.

Tuxisai quickly summoned the leaders of the various ministries to discuss matters in Ajina's big tent.Seeing Wu Gong's head and listening to Tu Xisai's account of how the Han army seized the fortress, they were all stunned.The leaders looked at each other, their eyes widening.

This is really appalling, how can people fly, how can a mere hundred of people attack a dangerous place like Bingling Fortress.

After building enough momentum, Ashina broke the silence first.

"Everyone, the Bingling Fortress has been conquered. General Liang has already opened up the road for reinforcements. More Han troops may enter the valley through the Bingling Fortress at any time, and they may also sweep across the grasslands and plunder the Huns' pastures. This battle is already in sight. You can rest assured."

The leaders seemed to come back to life, nodding their heads in agreement.

"However, this river valley is your homeland. The Wusun people and the Huns can't just come and leave. The Wusun people have been maimed by us, and the Huns haven't received their due punishment. Let them leave like this , wouldn’t it be cheaper for them?”

The Serb leaders looked at each other, not knowing what Ashina wanted to say.Is he trying to confront the Huns head-on?That's not very wise.They all add up to less than 7000 people, how can they be the opponents of the Huns.What's more, Liang Xiao is not here yet, just relying on Ashina and Doros, is it okay?

Seeing the Cypriots hesitate, Ashina laughed. "I know that you are worried about the lack of troops, but think about it, why Lie Jiaomi has been here for two days and has not launched an attack? If they are sure, will they be so merciful?"

At this moment, Tu Xisai came to understand a little bit, stood up and said: "What Dalu means is to lure the Huns to attack, use the terrain to severely injure the Huns, force them to retreat voluntarily, and then pursue them?"

Ashina nodded. "That's right, you have been with General Liang for many days, and you must know that this is also General Liang's intention. Only in this way can we teach the Huns a lesson so that they will not dare to set foot in the valley again."

Tu Xisai stroked his beard, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

Seeing that this was Liang Xiao's intention, the Cypriots did not object any more, they agreed to accept the command of Ashina and fight together.Ajina immediately sent Victor to the camp of King Youxian.

-

"Your Majesty, Kunmo, I have already said what should be said. How to make a decision, please think twice, Your Majesty and Kunmo. Winter is approaching, and it is really not a good choice to fight or retreat."

Victor put on a sympathetic expression, but there was a lot of contempt in his words.King You Xian and Lie Jiaomi looked at each other, feeling a chill.They felt the pride and murderous intent of their opponents, and they also realized that their situation was really difficult.

fighting, unable to move forward.Back, feeling unwilling.

Lie Jiaomi's heart suddenly moved. "Are you from the Yuezhi?"

Victor nodded.

"How is Dalu?"

Victor closed his mouth and said nothing.

Lie Jiaomi secretly laughed. "The envoy please report back to Dalu, the three bows of the Yue family, and now only the sky bow is left in Chigu City. No one in Chigu City can open the sky bow, and it is useless to keep it. If Dalu is gracious and willing to negotiate, I can give it to you." Tiangong is dedicated to Dalu."

A flash of excitement flashed in Victor's eyes, and he wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything.The Tiangong is so alluring, it is almost a symbol of the royal power of the Yuezhi people.If Azhena can bring Tiangong back to Yueshi, his position will be more stable.He really wanted to agree to Lie Jiaomi's conditions, but he also knew that this was not up to him to decide, and he could only talk about it after repaying Ah Zena.

"I will convey Kunmo's suggestion to the general and Dalu." Victor bowed his thanks and turned to leave.

Lie Jiao Mi smiled without saying a word.From Victor's reaction, he already guessed that Ashina is in charge of military affairs now, and Liang Xiao is not in the army.In terms of status, Ah Zena can stand side by side with Liang Xiao, but in terms of military ability, Ah Zena is far behind Liang Xiao.If Liang Xiao wasn't in the army, then he didn't have to be so cautious.He turned to King Youxian and said, "My lord, haven't you seen Liang Xiao for a few days?"

King You Xian thought for a while, then shook his head. "It's still the one we fought five days ago."

"My lord, Liang Xiao is not here."

King Youxian was taken aback. "Not here? Where would he be then?"

Lie Jiaomi twisted his fingers, and there was a hint of ferocity in his smile. "If my guess is right, he should go to attack the Ice Ridge Fortress. Only by taking the Ice Ridge Fortress can he have a way to escape, and reinforcements can also enter the valley through this road. However, the Ice Ridge Fortress is not so easy to attack. Yes. Your Majesty, we should take this opportunity to launch an attack and trap Liang Xiao in the mountains, with nowhere to escape."

King Youxian was overjoyed and agreed repeatedly.

-

Five days ago, Youxian King failed to attack Ashina's position, so he withdrew his troops wisely and sent someone to call Lie Jiaomi.Lie Jiaomi arrived with [-] remnants who had just gathered, but they never launched an attack.As winter approached, the Cypriots fortified their walls and cleared their fields. They could not collect enough cattle, sheep and fodder, and could not stand for a long time. Attack or retreat was a problem they had to face.

King Youxian is more free and easy, and he still has some luggage. He can choose to stay in the valley to wait for the opportunity to fight, or he can retreat voluntarily.Hunting for pride is more difficult.The mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and he couldn't return to Chigu City, and he couldn't stay in the valley without luggage. It seemed that all he could do was follow Youxian King to the grassland.But in this way, he became a dependent, and from then on he could only bow his head to the Youxian King.

For him, attack was more feasible than retreat.The problem is that his troops are severely damaged, and without the support of King Youxian, he would not be able to win at all.

King Youxian also hopes to attack and win the final victory, but he is unwilling to take risks in the face of heavy casualties.Now that he knew that Liang Xiao was not here, his heart was moved, he accepted Lie Jiaomi's suggestion, and decided to attack again.

In order to achieve the final victory, both of them made compromises, took turns to attack, and faced together.

The war started again, and the Wusun people and the Huns launched a flood of attacks, hitting Ashina's position again and again.

Azhena ordered the Yuezhi people to fight back tenaciously.He used both soft and hard tactics, coaxing and deceiving, and organized some Cypriots into the team, which not only reduced the casualties of the Yuezhi people, but also gave him and his generals a chance to practice infantry combat.In the past, it was the Han and Dawan people who trained people, but now they have the opportunity to train the Cypriots. The feeling is very different and the experience is more direct.

And this is the purpose of Ajana.Taking this opportunity to train a group of generals who are proficient in foot combat will be of great benefit to him.

The two sides fought fiercely for several days, and the Huns and Wusun suffered heavy casualties. Although many people were beheaded, they were still unable to break through Ashina's position.Only then did they realize that although Azhena was not a famous general, his level of battle had improved rapidly, and it was far more difficult than they expected to break through Azhena's position.

This made King Youxian very depressed and Lie Jiaomi very depressed.

At this moment, Victor came to them again.This time, he handed over Wu Gong's head and the list of casualties.Lie Jiaomi saw it, his face changed drastically, and he was sweating profusely.

King Youxian was puzzled. "What's wrong?"

Lie Jiaomi bit his lip tightly, staring at Wu Gong's head and list, his face became paler and his legs began to tremble.He recognized Wu Gong, and he also knew the people on the list. He was sure that the Bingling Fortress had fallen, but he couldn't figure it out, how did Liang Xiao capture the Bingling Fortress?
How can this be?

"What's the matter?" King Youxian couldn't help asking again. "Whose head is this?"

Victor frowned and smiled. "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that General Liang captured the Bingling Fortress. This is the head of the captain Wu Gong of the Bingling Fortress. Your Majesty, General Liang captured the Bingling Fortress five days ago, and he should have already captured the Bingling Fortress now." to the prairie."

Youxian King's face also changed, he got up suddenly, glared at Lie Jiaomi, and roared: "Didn't you say that Bingling Fortress is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is impossible for Liang Xiao to take it?"

Can't blame him for losing his composure, this news is too shocking.What Liang Xiao is best at is long-distance raids. He managed to block him in this river valley, but unexpectedly he ran away again.Now the main force of the Huns on the right is here, and there are only a few old and weak left on the grassland, how can they resist Liang Xiao's killing?
It was a disaster.How could he remain calm at such a time.He is going crazy.

Liejiaomi wanted to cry but had no tears.King Youxian is nervous, he is more nervous than King Youxian.Liang Xiao conquered the Bingling Fortress, King Youxian must not be able to stay still, he will retreat as quickly as possible.

What should he do?In a moment, Lie Jiaomi's shirt was drenched with sweat.

Victor coughed: "Kunmo, you seem to have said last time that Tiangong is still in Chigu City?"

Lie Jiaomi nodded blankly.How could he care about Tiangong and Chigu City at this moment?He has become a bereaved dog, and found that the world is so big that there is no place for him to stand.And a few months ago, he was the strongest king of Wusun in the north and south of Tianshan Mountain.

How did things turn out like this?
"Kunmo?" Victor reminded again.

Lie Jiaomi was still in a trance, and Youxian King was very angry when he saw this, and shouted: "Lie Jiaomi, you are stupid!"

"Ah?" Lie Jiaomi apologized as if waking up from a dream. "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"What should we do now?" King You Xian stared wide-eyed. "I'm leaving, I'm afraid the grassland is already full of blood. Liang Xiao..." King Youxian gritted his teeth, his face was ferocious. "He is a wolf, a wolf more cruel than us Huns. Every time we meet him, we suffer heavy losses."

Lie Jiaomi was dumbfounded.It was the first time he saw King Youxian lose his composure like this.As the leader of the Huns on the right, the Youxian King is a powerful existence second only to the Xiongnu Shanyu and Zuo Xianwang, but now when he mentions Liang Xiao, he is like a sheep who has seen the fear of a wolf.

However, when I think about it carefully, King Youxian and Liang Xiao have fought against each other several times without a single victory. Although there has been no decisive battle, Liang Xiao has used surprise attacks on several occasions, and King Youxian was forced to retreat. It was either in vain or loss fold will.This time it was the same again, and what was even more frightening was that Liang Xiao entered the grassland and went straight to the confidant of King Youxian.Referring to Liang Xiao's previous style, this time King Youxian will lose half of his life if he does not die.

Lie Jiaomi rolled his eyes, thinking about it.He turned to look at Victor. "Since Dalu is in charge now, I want to negotiate a peace with Dalu. I don't know if Dalu may be the master?"

Victor smiled. "General Liang is not here, so naturally it is Dalu who decides."

"Then trouble your envoy and inform Dalu that Lie Jiaomi is willing to donate the Heavenly Bow, so please let Dalu let me live."

Victor was overjoyed and agreed without thinking.Lie Jiao Mi ordered someone to present a generous gift, and then personally sent Victor out of the big tent. After watching Victor leave, he returned to the account.King Youxian was angry in the tent, and when he saw Lie Jiaomi, he couldn't wait to say: "Kunmo, I'm leaving, what do you do, will you come with me?"

"Don't worry, my lord. If possible, it won't be too late to take down Ashana."

"Take down Azhena?" King Youxian stared at Lie Jiaomi in surprise. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"My lord, don't you feel Ashana's selfishness?" Lie Jiaomi snorted, with a trace of indescribable contempt. "Liang Xiao seized the Bingling Fortress and handed it over to Ashina, but Ashina is focused on his own personal gain. This is an opportunity. If we use it properly, we may have a chance to turn defeat into victory."

"Turning defeat into victory?" King Youxian was both surprised and delighted. "Is there a chance?"

"My lord, the reason why Ashana won was not because he was very strong, but because he occupied a favorable terrain. If we can lure him away from this place, and the two sides fight in the open field, can Ashana still be our opponent?"

King You Xian thought for a while, his eyes lit up.He slapped his thigh. "It makes sense! Tell me, how can you lure him out?"

Lie Jiaomi's eyes shrink slightly, and a cold light suddenly appears. "It's very simple, let's quarrel and fight again, that's all."
