He Ruobi and Han Qinhu left the hall, leaving only Yu Wenyong and Yang Jian in the hall.

Yu Wenyong's hall is always filled with a scent of fragrance.

The Taoist priests he supported provided him with a kind of incense. After burning it, the fragrance would fill the air and make people energetic.

The soldiers stood far away, and the palace was extremely open.

Yu Wenyong asked Yang Jian to move forward a little. Yang Jian kept moving, approached Yu Wenyong respectfully, and sat next to him.

There was some indescribable fatigue in Yu Wenyong's eyes.

In the eyes of different people, they can often see different Da Zhou.

In Yu Wenyong's eyes, Da Zhou was a seriously ill patient.

The previous doctors were not very clever, but they were still trying to keep the patients alive.

In his hands, he had to both maintain his life and heal his wounds.

He looked at Yang Jian, his eyes were far sharper than Yang Jian's, like a knife trying to pierce the loyal general in front of him.

Yang Jian was horrified and hurriedly lowered his head.

"Mr. Sui, thanks to you this time, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid the thieves would have entered Chang'an.

"It's also because of you that He Ruobi's life can be saved."

"You are truly a wise minister."

"I am so ashamed of myself!"

Yang Jian hurriedly gave in.

Yu Wenyong suddenly asked: "However, I don't understand. What you were ordered to garrison was the north wall.

Why did you appear in the west? Did you know about Yu Wenzhi?"

Yu Wenyong's face was calm and his words were gentle, but the words he asked were a bit aggressive.

Yang Jian hurriedly said: "I led the troops to patrol the city. I heard from the devil that the Duke of Wei suddenly withdrew the soldiers guarding the city, and many generals and officers were missing."

"I didn't know the details, so I sent someone to the palace to prepare a report. The person I sent suddenly came back and claimed that Duke Wei was at war with someone at Suzhangmen."

"I knew something was wrong, but I didn't have time to report it, so I immediately gathered the troops and headed to the west gate. I originally wanted to prepare for the enemy's attack, but I didn't expect that the city gate happened to be wide open and the enemy was arrayed outside, so I sent troops to repel them.

"

Yang Jian explained seriously. From the names of the personnel sent to the time when he summoned the army, nothing was missed.

Yu Wenyong believed his statement.

Yu Wenyong nodded with a smile on his face.

"You are indeed my wise minister."

"The Duke of Sui is really brave and capable of winning people. With just one order, thousands of elites are willing to follow you to fight at the west city gate."

Yang Jian said seriously: "All the sergeants are His Majesty's servants. When they learned that the capital was in danger, they were all willing to fight to the death with all their strength. No one would flinch!"

Yu Wenyong finally couldn't think of anything else to say, so he motioned to Yang Jian to pour him some tea.

Yang Jian prostrated before him and served the emperor.

When Yu Wenyong looked at him like this, the haze in his eyes finally dissipated.

He smiled and helped Yang Jian up, "How can you, a majestic prince, perform this ceremony? Just sit and pour tea?"

Yu Wenyong then sighed, "This Liu Taozi is really difficult to deal with. The knights under his demon have been killed outside Chang'an. I can only hide in the capital and watch him kill my subjects outside and burn the farmland of the village... At the moment

, Yu Wenzhi, this idiot, has done something like this again."

"I didn't want to kill him. Although he intended to rebel, I am only a younger brother. My mother loves him so much. I didn't expect it."

"During these days, we haven't seen any reinforcements. It seems that we have been attacked by the enemy. What should we do now?"

Yang Jian said without thinking: "Your Majesty, the enemy's goal is not Chang'an."

"But to the north."

"oh?"

"These thousands of people want to capture Chang'an. They are wishful thinking. They expended so much energy to cross the river. I don't think they just set fire here to scare people."

"Then their purpose is very clear, Xiazhou Defense Line."

"When Chang'an was attacked, the surrounding armies must have panicked, and then sent troops for reinforcements. They surrounded Chang'an to attack these reinforcements. The reinforcements must have arrived at full speed. The enemy was waiting for work, so how could we defeat it?"

"The armies in Xia, Yin and other places have more food and logistics than Chang'an. They transport it from Chang'an to other places. They destroy all the bridges, mountain roads, forts, posts and buildings along the way. The food and grass for the front-line army must be transported twice a year. If

The grain and grass cannot be transported in time..\n.\n.\n"

"The enemy's real purpose is to deprive the front line of food?"

The Xiazhou defense line cannot be self-sufficient... As for why it cannot be self-sufficient, Yu Wenyong is unwilling to say more.

Yang Jian continued his analysis: "This should be just one of the enemy's ideas. The enemy has many different preparations."

"It is inevitable that our morale will be damaged. When sergeants from all over the country learn that Chang'an was attacked... it will definitely affect their morale."

"In addition, food shortage is also one of them. This Xia Yin is like a sharp blade. The hilt is in Chang'an and is in your hand. You can easily thrust out this sword so that the enemy does not dare to invade.

"Now, the hilt of the sword has been broken, contact has been lost, and the road for transporting food has been destroyed. Even if we repel the enemy this time, food transportation will become a big problem in a short time, and detours may be necessary."

"Firstly, the frontline needs to return reinforcements. Secondly, the morale of the troops is unstable. Thirdly, there is a shortage of food. Fourthly, there is a loss of contact.:.:"

"This is aimed at Xiazhou's front line everywhere. When the front line troops retreat, the enemy will attack with all their strength. I'm afraid what they want is to completely break this sharp blade.

Yu Wenyong's face was covered with a dark cloud, and his eyes began to shine with anger.

He asked in a low voice: "Then how should we deal with it?"

"Your Majesty, I would like to lead an elite cavalry team out of the city to fight against the thieves."

"Can you fight him off?"

"I can't say that I can definitely repel him, but I can make him dare not be as reckless as now and reduce more casualties. Armies from various places are constantly approaching. I can restore contact with various places and organize

These reinforcements will prevent them from being defeated separately. As long as we have enough troops, we will be able to occupy all the important road intersections outside the city. When the thieves come, they will definitely consider a retreat."

"If we defend the city from the inside and cut off its roads from the outside, the thieves will not dare to continue to entangle and will leave as soon as possible. If they leave, the food can be sent to the front line in time, and the front line still has the possibility of survival."

"After all, Duke Yun is a famous general and a calm man. With him guarding the front line, there is no need to worry in the short term."

Yu Wenyong looked at Yang Jian in surprise.

It was difficult for him to describe the young man in front of him.

Yang Jian's appearance is very strange, and many people are worried about him because of this, including Qi Duke Yu Wenxian, who has repeatedly told himself that Yang Jian has alien intentions.

But Yu Wenyong doesn't believe this. How can he determine a person's personality based on his appearance?

Yang Jian seems to have no talent most of the time. When it comes to fighting, he is not the strongest. When it comes to politics, he is not the strongest.

It seems to be just average. He says he has read a lot of books, but he doesn’t know how to write an article. He claims he can win people, but there aren’t many people around him to follow him.

But he is such a seemingly ordinary person, but he can always make the right choice at important times. Yu Wenyong searched for a long time, but could not find any faults in him that could be used as a handle.

At critical moments, you can always see him standing up.

Previously, Yu Wenyong ordered to deal with the wealthy clans, and Yang Jian was the only Duke who publicly expressed his willingness to support Yu Wenyong.

Yuwen Yong wanted to recruit soldiers as servants, and Yang Jian was the first military leader to implement Yuwen Yong's policy.

Chang'an encountered a crisis, and Yang Jian was the first general to come out to rescue the siege.

Yu Wenyong looked at him with particularly complicated eyes.

He grabbed the other person's hand, his eyes burning.

"I'll leave this matter to you outside the city."

"We must repel this group of thieves as soon as possible...\n.\n.\nI will never tolerate Liu Taozi being so rampant."

Yang Jian hurriedly paid his respects again.

Yu Wenyong then sent people in, wrote the edict, and handed it to Yang Jian himself.

When Yang Jian walked out of the palace, there was not much joy or excitement on his face.

He got on the carriage and left quickly.

Yang Jian has lived in Chang'an for a while. He usually lives in seclusion. This time it was because of the enemy's attack.

Yang Jian was ordered to garrison the city wall.

When he hurried back to his mansion, the warriors were extremely excited and shouted,

Open the door and welcome the owner.

Yang Jian is a serious person, but he is quite honest with his friends and subordinates. He doesn't like to scheming and testing with Mo Xia, at least that's still the case now...\n.\n.\n. Everyone respects and loves him for this.

Just walked into the backyard.
