Liang Qi was not as lucky as Chu Ge.
Although he led 500 people along the way, they stayed day and night and wiped out a small tribe of dozens of people.
However, when he led his troops to reach the vicinity of Frozen City, they were still attacked by people near Frozen City.
The Tuqishi people found out, and all the Tuqishi people inside and outside the frozen city hid in the city and closed the city gate tightly.
"Have you been discovered?"
Liang Qi led several people on horseback to the vicinity of Frozen City and saw the city gates tightly closed, flags fluttering on the earthen walls, figures flashing, and the dazzling light reflected from the weapons flickering.
"Master Xiaowei, it seems that the Tuqishi people in Fengcheng have discovered us.
Now I'm afraid the only way is to attack by force," the deputy lieutenant said to Liang Qi.
Liang Qi frowned.
The situation was unfavorable.
A strong attack would definitely cause heavy casualties, but now there seemed to be no other way except a strong attack.
After thinking for a while, Liang Qi said to the lieutenant: "Send the order.
The troops are coming to the city with great fanfare.
You lead 200 people to retreat a few miles to camp, erect more tents, and order people to tie branches to the tails of the horses and drag them back and forth in front of the camp.
If you want to drag them, The sky must be filled with smoke and dust.”
The lieutenant didn't know why, but he still agreed: "No" Liang Qi learned this move from Zhao Ziliang.
In the past few months, Zhao Ziliang not only urged the soldiers to carry out intensive training, but also trained his generals in military knowledge, tactics and strategies, allowing some of his subordinates to The rough guys have also learned something, and are much better than they knew nothing before.
After the lieutenant led 200 men to camp, Liang Qi himself led 300 cavalry and rushed to the south gate of Dongcheng.
The huge momentum made the troops on the wall change their color.
These cavalry were so elite that they could not help but be afraid. .
Liang Qi led his army to stop at a stone's throw below the city wall.
He had some knowledge about Frozen City before coming here, and had Zhao Ziliang's intelligence support, so he knew the situation of Frozen City very clearly.
He shouted to the city wall: "Is Murong, the Wolf Lord of Frozen City, successful?"
An old man with a gray beard, wearing iron armor and a leather helmet walked up to the arrow and shouted to Liang Qi: "I am Murong Chenggong, who is under my command?
Why do you want to lead troops to the city?"
Most people with the surname Murong are Xianbei people.
The Xianbei people are deeply influenced by Han culture.
Many Xianbei people can speak fluent Chinese.
Xianbei nobles are still proud of learning Han culture, but the Xianbei people have declined on the northern grasslands. , even if there are tribes of Xianbei people, they are still human beings The number is very small, and the vassals are lingering under other powerful nomadic tribes, which has become nothing.
This Murong Chenggong is the leader of a declining Xianbei tribe.
He took refuge under the fire-spitting fairy Khan and was sent to this frozen city.
As the lord of the city, his tribe also grazes in the areas surrounding Feng City.
Liang Qi said loudly: "I am Liang Qi, a lieutenant under the command of General Zhao Ziliang, the city guard of Shule Town under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty.
The Fire-Tumbling Immortal and his ministers killed his father Sulu Khan.
This is against the moral code.
It's a heinous crime and it's not done by me His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty arbitrarily established himself as a khan after being enthroned by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
This is an act of rebellion.
Such an unfaithful, unfilial, kingless and fatherless person will be punished by the whole world.
My general is following the decree of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to attack the fire-spitting immortal.
If the wolf master is Lead the tribe and freeze All the people in the city have surrendered, but my general can forget the blame.
The Wolf Lord will still lead the frozen city and govern the people of the city.
If the Wolf Lord insists on going against the grain and aiding the tyrants, then don’t blame our school for sending troops to attack the city.
Once the city is destroyed, the jade stone will be destroyed.
If Lord Ju Burning Wolf is considerate of his tribe and the thousands of people in the city, he should know how to choose.
I will give Lord Wolf one day to think about it.

At this time tomorrow, if Lord Wolf has not opened the city gate and led his troops out of the city to surrender, I will order an attack on the city. " After speaking, Liang Qi ordered a team behind him: "Take your people to patrol near the city wall, especially pay attention to the several city gates.
If anyone tries to escape from the city, kill them immediately.
Don't let anyone go." " The team is clasping their fists: "No" Liang Qi turned his horse around again and waved his hand: "The others will return to camp with our captain."
Seeing Liang Qi leaving with his men and horses, Murong Chenggong and the other soldiers on the earthen wall secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
There was nothing they could do about it.
This Tang army was too elite.
Not only was its momentum intimidating, but the soldiers were all highly skilled and energetic. , morale is high.
There is too much pressure in front of such an army.
At this moment, Murong Chenggong saw billowing smoke and dust rising a few miles to the south, and there was a faint knight's cave.
Looking again, it seemed that a large number of people were camping.
Not only Murong Chenggong saw it, but other soldiers on the earth wall also saw it.
One of Murong Chenggong's generals was shocked and said: "Lord Wolf, the number of people is probably not less than 5,000.
Without 5,000 cavalry, we can't afford so much smoke."
Murong Chenggong, as the leader of the clan and in charge of soldiers for a long time, how could he not see that he was already filled with shock at this moment, and his hands on the wall were trembling slightly.
After observing for a while, Murong Chenggong said: "Go back home."
One person worriedly said: "Lord Wolf, what should I do if Tang soldiers suddenly attack me while I'm not waiting?"
"No, then since Lieutenant Tang Military Academy said he would give us a day to think about it, he should not break his promise, but the city wall cannot be left unattended.
Half of the people should be left, and the other half should go down to the city wall to rest.
The ten captains and above will follow me back home.
"discussions" "Yes, Wolf Lord" Six miles outside the city, there is the Tang Army's military camp.
When Liang Qi led his troops back, the deputy lieutenant was leading the troops to set up camp.
The main tent of the Chinese army had been set up, and all the generals followed him to the main tent.
After everyone entered, the deputy captain asked: "Colonel, how is the situation?"
Liang Qi said: "A certain person has given Murong Chenggong, the wolf leader of Frozen City, one day to surrender with his troops."
The lieutenant said: "What if Murong succeeds and doesn't surrender?"
"If he doesn't surrender tomorrow at this time, we know we can attack by force."
Liang Qi said, and added: "People's hearts are unpredictable after all, and we can't completely hope that Murong will surrender if he succeeds.
If we attack by force tomorrow, we will Preparations must be made in advance.
First, reconnaissance cavalry must be sent out to extend the scope of exploration and patrol to a radius of twenty miles; second, security must be deployed inside and outside the camp; third, someone must bring tools and a few carpenters. , sent a hundred men to cut down trees to build a siege cloud Ladders and siege vehicles.
We must build ten siege ladders and one siege vehicle before this time tomorrow.
Fortunately, the frozen city wall is only one foot high.
The ladders do not need to be too long, and neither do the siege vehicles.
It's too big.
Even if Murong successfully surrenders, if he doesn't surrender, these things will come in handy.
The first team will be responsible for detection and warning, while the second team will cut down the trees and help the craftsmen build ladders and siege vehicles. , others rest and let the cook light the fire to cook."
Everyone agreed in unison: "No" It is not an easy task to lead an army alone in combat.
Not only do you have to direct a large army to fight and rack your brains, but you also have to arrange food and grass, and consider safety during the march or when camping.
In short, as a general of an army, you need to consider all aspects of things. , once there are any omissions, it may cause chaos in the army, loss or loss of combat effectiveness.
This depends on the commanding ability of the general.
A general with stronger command ability can command an army like an arm, and it is very easy.
A general with poor command ability will have a hard time commanding an army.
Some generals can command a thousand people, but they cannot command 10,000 people.
If you don't, you won't be able to play anymore.
Therefore, the more troops you command, the more you can see the strength of the general's commanding ability.
Zhao Ziliang himself was crossing the river by feeling the stones.

He had no one to teach him, and he had no chance to study with the leading generals.
In his previous life, he was just a small platoon leader.
The modern army of later generations was completely different from the Tang Army at this time.
Many matters such as logistics and staff do not require the personal intervention of the military chief.
There are specialized people and units responsible for them.
However, the Tang Army today does not have a staff department, logistics department and other departments.
Therefore, almost everything requires an army chief to take care of it.
Scheduling and coordination.
Zhao Ziliang's division of troops this time also had the factor of testing his generals.
Letting them lead the army alone can show their command and leadership abilities.
Murong Chenggong's mansion in Frozen City.
All the generals above ten captains and the clan leaders inside and outside the city were present.
Murong Chenggong held the hilt of his sword and strode to the main seat with a gloomy face and sat down.
He looked at everyone on the left and right and said: "The Tang army is approaching the city outside the city. , depending on the momentum the other party makes and the size of the camps, there are no less than 5,000 people, let’s talk about it, should we open the city gate and surrender, or should we live and die with the frozen city?”
The Centurion of the Tuqi Battalion stood up and said: "Lord Murong Wolf, Fire-Tumbling Immortal Khan has great trust in you and takes great care of you Xianbei people.
He allows you to graze your own cattle in Fengcheng and within a radius of 200 miles, and also entrusts you with As the Lord of Frozen City, Murong Wolf Lord, if you surrender to the Tang Army, how can you live up to the kindness of the Fire-Spitting Immortal Khan?
Please Lord Wolf not to do that despised thing, so as not to be ridiculed by others."
The Centurion of the Tuqi Battalion was a Tuqi Shi named Huang.
He was sent by the Fire Spitting Immortal to monitor Murong Chenggong.
Naturally, he was opposed to surrendering to the Tang army.
The Centurion of the Xianbei Battalion said: "Lord Wolf, there are now three thousand people in the city, most of them are old and weak, with only three hundred men in combat strength, while the Tang Army has as many as five thousand, and the disparity in strength is too great.
We refuse to defend and fight."
The Tang army is seeking self-destruction.
It doesn’t matter if I die, there are still more than a thousand of our tribe in the city.
If the Tang army attacks the city, our Xianbei tribe will be completely wiped out."
Centurion Shi, who was riding a horse, was furious when he heard this: "This is simply alarmism.
We have three hundred elites, and at least one thousand men can be selected from among the men in the city to join the defense.
As long as we persist for ten days and a half, the fire-breathing immortal will definitely send an army."
Come to our rescue” A Uighur tribe leader shook his head and said: "In this situation, you are the only one who believes this.
We don't believe it.
Since the Tang Dynasty sent troops to attack Tuqishi, they must have been fully prepared, not counting the Sogdians in the south."
The army and the armies of other surrounding tribes, the four towns of Anxi alone can mobilize no less than 24,000 troops, these 24,000 people are elite, enough It can be equal to the 100,000 cavalry of the sudden cavalry.
The Fire Breathing Immortal can't protect himself.
How can he have the extra troops to rescue us?
If we hold on, there is only one way to die.
You all saw it just now.
The Tang army defended the four gates.
The surrounding patrols have been strengthened.
Not even a single mosquito can fly out.
If you want to survive, you can only surrender to me.
No matter what you think, I have decided to surrender to the Tang Army."
Another clan leader also said: "My clan also surrendered."
With these two people at the beginning, several other clan leaders expressed their intention to surrender, which made the Centurion of the Cavalry Battalion begin to panic.
He immediately pulled out his sword and said angrily: "How dare you betray the Fire-Spitting Immortal Khan?"
But he didn't expect that someone behind him suddenly drew his sword and struck, and the centurion of the cavalry battalion was beheaded on the spot.

Seeing this, Murong Chenggong sighed, stood up and said: "The matter has come to this, I can only surrender.
In the afternoon, I will go out of the city to talk to the Tang Military Colonel, and get some for me from all over the city.
Everyone, please go back and appease the soldiers.
Get ready."
Please surrender
