Outside dingyang City, Tian Yu was awakened in the middle of the night by the Patrol: "general, there seems to be something unusual in the city!"

"What's going on?" As Tian Yu turned over, he put on his robes and asked;

the patrolman shook his head: "I don't know. I just think it's very busy in dingyang this evening. Moreover, in the middle of the night, there seems to be a big wave of defensive taxis in Dongcheng, and there are still a lot of them."

"Is there any sign of the garrison attacking the city at night?"

"No, it's just that the city's taxi drivers have changed, but the Garrison has done nothing else."

"Come on, send for commander Pang."

Pang Tong, who soon got the news, rushed to Tian Yu's tent. Tian Yu ordered the patrol to tell Pang Tongzai what he saw.

After listening to the patrol, Rao Shi Pang Tong couldn't figure out what the garrison was doing. The main reason is that the situation of dingyang city is too special. The whole city is equivalent to a pass, not to mention a pass several miles deep. If something happens in the city or in the west, there will be no trace in the East.

In desperation, they had to order the patrol to keep an eye on the garrison on the wall, and other things could only be done after dawn.

……

In Fu's castle, Tang's generals had to wait until daybreak before Liu Shang ordered them to send out cavalry from each village to explore the enemy's situation in the East and west directions. Moreover, when the cavalry went out, he repeatedly told the generals to be careful, rather slow than safe.

After the cavalry came out of the fort, the gate of Fujia fort was closed again, and the soldiers of Tang Dynasty were still waiting for them.

A little bit of time passed, half an hour later, the cavalry on both sides finally brought the news of the enemy, dingyang city direction, there are still soldiers on duty on the wall. In the west, the cavalry sent out only sent back a few cavalry to pass on the news. From fujiabao to Shili in the west, they did not find the whereabouts of the dingyang allied forces. Looking at the traces on the official road, they should have continued to the West and never stopped.

At this time, most of the Tang army began to prepare for the siege. When they arrived at the east of dingyang, they found that a general of dingyang army came down from the tower, holding a white flag and asking to see the general of Tang army. This was Yang Laoliu who went out of the city to surrender to the Tang army on Yang Gan's order.

Yang Laoliu was soon brought to Tian Yu by Tang soldiers. At this time, Tian Yu knew that the dingyang allied forces had evacuated dingyang city a few hours ago. Today, there are only tens of thousands of people in dingyang city except for the two thousand new soldiers led by hundreds of old soldiers.

The generals of the Tang army were all wrong about this result. When they inquired in detail, they found out that the original 5000 partial divisions sent by their own family not only successfully arrived in the west of dingyang, but also designed to annihilate the 6000 garrison of dingyang. Because of this, all the talents in dingyang City decided to abandon the garrison overnight and retreat to gaonu.

In the face of the conditions put forward by the garrison captain in dingyang City, Tian Yu agreed without thinking about it. He said to Yang Laoliu, "if you go to reply to the garrison captain, you say that as long as he is willing to sacrifice the city, he will be willing to write to the king and forgive everyone's guilt. Moreover, the people in the city are now the people of the Tang Dynasty, and the army regards them as the ordinary people of the Tang Dynasty."

"As for you, I will write to the king and ask him to reward you for your contribution. I will never ignore your contribution to the city!"

"Thank you for your understanding. I'll go back to the city immediately and persuade the captain to open the gate to welcome the army into the city!" A quarter of an hour later, the east gate of dingyang city opened as expected. A dingyang military commander came to Tian Yu alone and dismounted to say, "the criminal general, dingyang military commander Yang dares to see the general. If the criminal is too late, please let the general be angry."

With that, Yang dares to raise his sword and kneel down to Tian Yu.

Seeing this, Tian Yu quickly turned over and dismounted, quickly walked to Yang Gan, took the sword in Yang Gan's hand, handed it to the guards beside him, and then lifted Yang Gan up with both hands, and said with a smile, "Yang Duwei has made a contribution to the city. What's the crime, please get up. And then there is Tian Yu, a general who originally came from the third grade, and is not a general. Don't make a mistake. "

"Yang Duwei, what's the situation in the city now?" Tian Yu asked again;

"general Huitian, everything is stable in the city. Ordinary people don't know that the Allied forces have withdrawn. At the end, the general has sent troops to control all the government offices in the city, waiting for the general to send troops to the city to take over."

With that, Yang Gan waved in the direction of the city. From the gate hole, teams of dingyang soldiers came out in formation, piled up their weapons neatly outside the moat outside the city, and then went to the other side to wait.

When no one came out of the gate, Yang Gancai said to Tian Yu, "general Tian, the five garrisons of the east wall have all left the city. Please send someone to the city. Now, there are more than 400 soldiers in two villages in the city who are responsible for defending the government's Treasury, and 600 soldiers are responsible for defending the western city wall. Please send someone to take over with Yang Laoliu, the head of my own garrison. ""How are our soldiers on the west side of the city?" After Tian Yu arranged for five thousand Tang troops to take over the defense in the city, he turned to Yang Gan and asked;

Yang Gan shook his head: "we don't know about this general. We all know that six thousand soldiers and horses were sent out in the city, but no one could escape. As for the situation of the Tang soldiers, everyone knows nothing about it."

After thinking about it, Tian Yu ordered: "general Huaxiong, please lead ten thousand Xiliang cavalry to pass through the city and go to the west to meet the army. After receiving the army, you will escort it back to dingyang. You can't go west to pursue the dingyang allied army."

"The end will take orders!" Although Hua Xiong didn't know why Tian Yu couldn't pursue the dingyang allied forces who had fled to the west, he still took orders and left.

The reason why Tian Yu didn't let Hua Xiong lead the pursuit immediately was not for other reasons, but because the situation was not clear. They knew nothing about the situation of the partial division army and the dingyang allied army. So before the situation was not clear, Tian Yu would not easily send troops to pursue.

As ten thousand Xiliang cavalry came out of the west gate of dingyang, Tian Yu and Pang Tong entered the official yamen of dingyang city.

As Yang Gan reported, everything in dingyang city is still stable. Ordinary people don't know that their general Hengye has abandoned them. The city changed its owner overnight and became the territory under the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

However, Tian Yu was filled with emotion at this time. He didn't expect that dingyang's war was so fierce. Just as he was preparing to attack with all his strength, the other side ran all night and let his fist hit the air. However, this was good. At least the soldiers of Tang Dynasty lost a lot less.
