Great Sui's reinforcements arrived, Yanmen was easy to defend but hard to attack, and the northern border was in danger.
The extremely unwilling Shibi Khagan weighed the pros and cons before gritting his teeth and ordering the Turkic army to retreat.
The Turkic army retreated extremely quickly, and in less than two hours, they had all retreated from the vicinity of Yanmen.
Li Yuan had sent people to keep an eye on the Turkic army.
As a result, he immediately learned that the Turkic army had retreated.
"Hahaha…"
After hearing the news of the Turkic army's retreat, Li Yuan's face lit up with excitement and he began to laugh happily.
"As expected of my son-in-law! This method was truly ingenious, and it had actually scared off the Turkic army!”
Li Yuan looked at Su Changyu with admiration in his eyes.
In fact, at this moment, he even began to admire his son-in-law!
"Brother-in-law's plan is truly brilliant. It didn't cost a single soldier to scare off the Turkic army.”
Li Yuanji looked at Su Changyu with admiration.
Although Li Jiancheng didn't say anything, he admired Su Changyu very much.
"Father-in-law, you flatter me. It's just a small trick.”
Su Changyu looked at Li Yuan's excited face and said with a smile,"Father-in-law, let's hurry into the city.”
"Yes, yes, yes! Quickly enter the city to see His Majesty!"
Li Yuan immediately nodded."Hurry up and take His Majesty away from Yanmen, in case the Turks come back to kill us.”
Li Yuan knew the importance of this matter, so he immediately ordered the army to enter the city after hearing Su Changyu's words.
"Big brother, let's go. This time, brother-in-law will definitely be rewarded by His Majesty. We will also benefit from it!”
Li Yuanji's face was full of excitement as he urged Li Jiancheng to catch up with Li Yuan.
……
In the city of Yanmen.
At this moment, the atmosphere was filled with excitement.
Whether it was the commoners in the city, the military officers, generals, or high-ranking officials, all of them were extremely excited.
Originally, everyone in the Yanmen Sect thought that they were facing a great disaster.
As long as the Tujue people broke through the Yan Gate, they would die without a doubt!
But now, they knew that the Turkic army had retreated!
When they learned of this news, they felt as if they had just survived a disaster. They were extremely glad and excited!
Emperor Yang Guang was standing on the city wall, his face filled with excitement!
"Which general has come to rescue the king?”
The excited Emperor Yang Guang stared outside the city and asked excitedly.
"Your Majesty, according to the news that we've received, it's Duke Li Yuan of Tang who has led his troops to rescue us!”
Xiao Yu, who was beside Emperor Yang Guang, said to him excitedly.
" It's the Duke of Tang?!"
When Emperor Yang heard this, he was shocked. After a moment, he came back to his senses. His eyes flickered and he sighed in his heart.
It seems that I have really misunderstood the Duke of Tang! She shouldn't have listened to those rumors.
Just as Emperor Yang and the others were staring outside the city, they saw Li Yuan leading his army over.
"Quickly open the city gates!"
Seeing Li Yuan appear outside the city gate, Emperor Yang Guang smiled and loudly ordered people to open the gate.
The city gates opened.
Li Yuan, Su Changyu, and the others walked in from outside the city gate.
"Your Majesty, I came late to save you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!”
When Li Yuan saw Yang Guang, he immediately said to Yang Guang with concern,"Is Your Majesty's dragon body healthy? The Turkic bandits didn't hurt His Majesty, did they?”
"Hahaha…"
Emperor Yang Guang laughed and personally helped Li Yuan up."There's no need to be so polite. I'm fine.”
At this moment, Emperor Yang Guang was in a good mood. He looked at Li Yuan and became pleasing to the eye.
He was very touched that Li Yuan was the first to rush over to save the Emperor.
"Duke of Tang, how did you make the three hundred thousand Turkic soldiers retreat?”
After helping Li Yuan up, Emperor Yang Guang asked Li Yuan curiously.
"Your Majesty, it was not my credit that the Turks were able to retreat in such a hurry.”
Li Yuan smiled and said to Yang Guang,""This is the credit of my son-in-law, Su Changyu. He used a brilliant plan to scare off the Turkic army without expending a single soldier.”
"Oh? It's all thanks to Su Changyu?"
When Yang Guang heard Li Yuan's words, he smiled.
His eyes immediately fell on Su Changyu, who was standing behind Li Yuan, and he asked,"Su Changyu, how did you make the Turkic army retreat?”
Hearing Yang Guang's words, Su Changyu stepped forward and explained,"Your Majesty, I used a diversion tactic to make the Turks think that we have a large army to support the king. When the time comes, they won't be able to besiege Your Majesty and will instead be surrounded by us…"
Su Changyu explained briefly, and Yang Guang immediately understood.
After hearing this, Emperor Yang Guang was filled with admiration for Su Changyu's boldness, prudence, and strategy.
Emperor Yang wasn't the only one who felt this way. Yu Wenshu, Su Wei, Xiao Yu, and the other ministers all admired Su Changyu. They looked at him with admiration.
At the same time, they were very grateful to Su Changyu.
If it wasn't for Su Changyu, they would have been in grave danger!
"Good, good, good! As expected of the number one scholar of Great Sui, he was both intelligent and brave.”
Yang Guang had always admired Su Changyu. Now that Su Changyu had used a clever trick to force the Turkic army back and saved him from danger, his impression of Su Changyu had reached an unprecedented level.
"Su Changyu is wise and resourceful. He should be rewarded for saving the emperor!”
Emperor Yang Guang was in a good mood. He smiled and said loudly,"I now bestow upon you the title of Marquis, Marquis Zhongwu of Great Sui!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Su Changyu heard that Yang Guang had given him the title of Marquis, and even the title of Zhongwu Marquis!
A look of surprise flashed across his eyes as he hurriedly bowed and thanked her.
Emperor Yang's youngest daughter was standing behind him. Her face was filled with joy as she watched her father make Su Changyu a marquis.
At this moment, she was filled with gratitude towards Su Changyu.
In her eyes, Su Changyu had saved her family this time!
When Li Yuan, Li Yuanji, and Li Jiancheng saw Yang Guang confer the title of Marquis on Su Changyu, their faces were filled with joy and smiles.
They were all happy for Su Changyu.
Especially Li Yuan, who was feeling happy and relieved.
Fortunately, his son-in-law persuaded him to immediately send troops to help the king and successfully saved Emperor Yang Guang through a clever plan.
Yang Guang's attitude towards him had obviously improved greatly. It was no longer like before, full of suspicion, and his eyes seemed to have always been unfriendly.
