Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 253: Capture Yunzhou!

Two days later, Yang Li stood confidently on the city wall, looking at the garrison in the distance.

"Let you also experience the fear of being controlled by a catapult!"

He raised his hand high, and the soldiers around him couldn't help but focus on that hand. They watched Yang Li's arm fall slowly and firmly.

"emission!"

Huge stones flew into the air and were launched towards the garrison camp.

There was a loud "bang", the stone fell to the ground, and the carefully built tent was instantly torn apart. The guys inside were smashed to pieces, and their original appearance could not be seen at all.

The entire camp was reduced to ruins in the blink of an eye.

Yang Li raised his hand, and the surrounding soldiers immediately stopped firing stones and waited for his order.

"Why didn't you hear the soldiers' wails?"

Yang Li looked at the tent in the distance in confusion. When the stone fell, it stands to reason that it should be able to kill the people living in the tent directly.

But he didn't see any trace of blood, only the messy tent lying on the ground.

The whole camp is deserted?
This realization made Yang Li break out in a cold sweat.

If there was no one in the camp, where were the soldiers?
He didn't receive any news about Yang Yanzhang's withdrawal!
The soldiers responsible for monitoring the camp saw no trace of their retreat!
Tens of thousands of people disappeared without a trace overnight?

"Damn it, where did Yang Yanzhang go? Why didn't he stay in the camp? Did they escape in advance?"

Yang Li never expected that his carefully laid plan would come to nothing!
The catapult, which cost a lot of manpower and material resources, didn't even kill anyone, but only destroyed the empty camp!

Yang Li really couldn't accept the feeling of failure that his plan was seen through by Yang Yanzhang.

"Go! Find them for me. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find traces of Yang Yanzhang!"

Yang Li gave an order, and thousands of soldiers were dispatched, leaving the city gate and running towards Yang Yanzhang's camp.

But they were destined to return in vain.

Yang Yanzhang, who had left the camp as early as last night, was leading his team under the east city wall. There was a large gap here. After being hit by a catapult, it had not been repaired in time.

Tens of thousands of soldiers secretly entered Yunzhou through the gap.

Then he hid it in the homes of the people in the city in time.

The people had long been unwilling to accept Yang Li's leadership and welcomed the Tang army who came to attack the city. They rushed to take the soldiers home for fear of exposing their traces!

Yang Li's army searched for a day and found no trace of Yang Yanzhang, but they found the direction of the army's retreat.

"General Yang, Yang Yanzhang's army left yesterday. According to the direction they left, it seems to be to the south."

Yang Li sat on a stool and listened to the report of his subordinates.

"South? Are they planning to go back to see Empress Wu directly? Haha, they couldn't capture the city, so they escaped overnight? Yang Yanzhang, do you have this much courage?"

Yang Li also heard about the fact that Lun Qinling was blocked at the border.

Yang Yanzhang's departure seemed to confirm a certain suspicion in Yang Li's mind.

"Lun Qinling put too much pressure on the Tang Dynasty. Even Wu Zetian was anxious and transferred his troops to attack Lun Qinling! Yang Yanzhang couldn't take Yunzhou and had to leave in embarrassment."

Yang Li laughed, and his heart suddenly felt very happy.

Is there anything happier than knowing that Yang Yanzhang escaped with his tail between his legs?
"Send the order, invite the whole army to dinner tonight! From tomorrow on, we no longer have to huddle in Yunzhou City!"

Yang Li's order made the entire Yunzhou City soldiers happy.

They have been hiding in the city for so long that they have become impatient.

In addition, food is getting less and less. Many people are eager to leave the city and go to other places to grab some food and have a big meal!That night, all the good wine in the city was moved to the military camp.

Yang Li sat at the top, holding a wine glass and laughing.

The woman who was raped to dance for fun looked at the soldiers who were watching eagerly around her in fear.

"Everyone will not come home until they are drunk tonight! Yang Yanzhang ran away with his tail between his legs. Who else can control us?"

Yang Li drank to his heart's content, became drunk soon, and returned to the house with Mei Jiaoniang in his arms.

The other soldiers were also drunk and some were lying on the ground and fell asleep.

At this time, Yang Yanzhang had already come out of the common people's home. He put his hand to his mouth and blew a whistle, and countless figures came out from all directions.

"Catch the thief first!"

The closer Yang Yanzhang got to Yang Li's house, the more he could smell the strong aroma of wine filling the air.

"Yang Li is really impatient. When he found the mark left by Li Xuance when he deliberately took people away, he felt that I had escaped!"

"Tonight, I'm afraid he'll be so drunk that he won't even notice that I'm in Yunzhou City!"

Yang Yanzhang, who had lived in Yunzhou City for a period of time, was very familiar with the roads in the city.

He took thousands of elite soldiers and generals and went straight to Yang Li's residence.

The soldiers guarding the gate were captured by them in twos and threes.

When Yang Yanzhang saw Yang Li again, he was lying on the bed, fast asleep, and his whole body was filled with the nauseating smell of alcohol.

"Take it!"

Yang Yanzhang gave an order, and Yang Li was dragged off the bed and knelt down in front of Yang Yanzhang.

"You...you are so brave! You dare to tie me up! Do you know who I am!"

At this time, Yang Li had not yet sobered up, and shouted around in a daze.

"Of course I know who you are. If I didn't know, how could I have tied you up? Yang Li, open your eyes and take a good look. I'm back!"

Yang Yanzhang kicked Yang Li, who suddenly woke up from the pain.

He opened his eyes drowsily and looked at the person standing in front of him.

"Yang Yanzhang! Why are you here!"

Yang Li struggled to stand up, but the soldiers held his shoulders and couldn't move. He looked in horror at the soldiers around him and himself being tied up.

Yang Yanzhang sneered.

"Now do you know what happened to you?"

Yang Yanzhang suddenly felt funny when he saw Yang Li's eyes wide open in disbelief.

As a general of an army, when faced with an enemy who suddenly disappeared, he didn't want to ask people to trace the traces and find out the enemy's movements. Instead, he hurriedly returned to the city to hold a celebration banquet!
Yang Lihui lost to Yang Yanzhang, which was not unfair at all!

"Yang Yanzhang, you are playing tricks on me! You clearly didn't leave, but you still pretended to be leaving! You despicable person!"

Yang Li scolded Yang Yanzhang in vain, but could not change the fact that he was caught.

"Okay, stop scolding, save some energy to meet Empress Wu, and take him down!"

Yang Yanzhang gave the order, and Yang Li was dragged down by his shoulders. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape the shackles of the soldiers.

Yunzhou City, captured!
