    Yongding City.

    The chief general of the city he was guarding was named Zheng Shanyue, and he served as the Zhonglang General.

    This person came from the Zheng family in Goguryeo, and was also from a large family.

    In fact, the official system of Goguryeo is similar to that of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the past. The aristocratic families monopolized everything.  All the channels for promotion are controlled by aristocratic families. As for the people at the bottom of Goguryeo, they are simply illiterate and have no chance of promotion.

    ¡°For example, the Lee family, the Choi family, the Eulji family, the Kim family, the Park family, etc., these are all big families that have been inherited.

    These big families control all resources.

    Zheng Shanyue was in the Zheng family. Although he was not the head of the family, he was quite outstanding in his strategy and had some reputation in Goguryeo, so he was assigned to Yongding City and was responsible for the security of Yongding City.

    Zheng Shanyue is a military general, but he is not a warrior, so he does not have much training in the army.

    ????????????????? More, it is to control the army by inviting and buying people's hearts.

    In the city, there is the residence of General Zhonglang.

    Zheng Shanyue is sitting on the main seat, with a group of his subordinates and generals below. In the center of the hall, there is a group of singers, dancing.  Accompanied by the melodious sounds of silk and bamboo, the scene was very lively as cups and cups were exchanged.

    Zheng Shanyue and the others kept drinking and having fun, and they were very happy.

    His mission, Zheng Shanyue, is to guard Yongding City.

    As for the battle at Datong River on the front line and the battle at Caoshan Pass, he has no control over it.  As long as he defended Yongding City, everything would be fine. Besides, he wasn't worried about Jin Zaishan standing in front of him.

    Therefore, you should eat and drink when you should, and don¡¯t delay having fun in time.

    The wine has passed three rounds, and the food has passed the five flavors.

    There was a lively atmosphere among the crowd.

    At this time, one of the generals below was Cui Mushan. He was also from a wealthy family and was also a general in the army.

    Cui Mushan drank a lot of wine, there was still a touch of red on his face, and he was a little drunk. He looked at Zheng Shanyue and said: "General Zheng, our Goguryeo is now at war with Qi. Although it is a nationwide war, can we  Block it?"

    The rest of the people were silent.

    Everyone stopped drinking.

    This is a question that concerns everyone.

    Zheng Shanyue glanced at Cui Mushan and frowned slightly, secretly blaming Cui Mushan for disappointing him for talking about such an issue.  However, this matter must be discussed and cannot be avoided at all, so after Zheng Shanyue thought for a while, he waved his hand for the singers to leave temporarily.

    In the hall, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

    Zheng Shanyue said: "Everyone must have your own opinions on this battle. What do you think?"

    He did not take the initiative to mention his thoughts.

    Let¡¯s try it on everyone first.

    Cui Mushan looked worried and said: "The general thinks that I, Goguryeo, may not be able to stop Qi's army. Just imagine, even a big empire like the Haixi Empire cannot stop it. In fact, Xianbei won't be able to stop it without a fight."  Surrender. Our current defense on the Datong River has also failed. So I guess I still can¡¯t stop it."

    As soon as these words came out, everyone echoed.

    "Yes, Qi's army is so powerful. Qi has the weapons we have. Qi also has the weapons we don't have. We even have fewer troops. How can we resist it?"

    ¡°Oh, I don¡¯t know what to do?¡±

    "At the beginning, I thought that we, Goguryeo, should not listen to the Hercynian Empire and attack Qi. If we had only promised verbally but not sent troops, everything would have been fine."

    "Although Jin Zaishan is brave, he cannot be stopped when he guards Caoshan Pass."

    One by one they kept talking.

    They are all a group of people who are in mourning and think that Goguryeo must be defeated.

    After Zheng Shanyue listened, he generally understood the current situation. He waved his hands and said, "Everyone, there is no need to worry about this anymore. Let us just let nature take its course."

    Cui Mushan said: "How to let nature take its course?"

    Zheng Shanyue said: "If we can resist, everything will be fine. We will stick to it. If we can't resist, we will naturally stop resisting. In Goguryeo, one is a minister, isn't it the same in Qi? Of course, this is what he said  We people all know the basics, so we just talk about it. If you leave it outside, I won't admit it."

    Cui Mushan¡¯s eyes lit up and he said: ¡°The general sees things thoroughly and the general is mighty.¡±

    He had a look of admiration on his face.

    The rest of the people also spoke one after another, expressing theirIt shows that Zheng Shanyue is very powerful.

    For them, it is true that they can resist if they can. If they cannot resist, they will naturally not resist.

    Zheng Shanyue waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't worry about these anymore, just enjoy yourself in time."

    Cui Mushan said: "Yes, yes, enjoy yourself while you can."

    The rest of the people also had a look of relief on their faces. Anyway, with Zheng Shanyue, they would have peace of mind.  Although these Goguryeo nobles are from Goguryeo, they care more about their own interests.

    Unlike people like Kim Jaesan, Eulji Munwoong, and Lee Changha, they are more pure.

    Zheng Shanyue immediately ordered the afternoon again. Not long after, a group of singers entered again, and then began to dance for fun.

    Zheng Shanyue changed the subject and started drinking and chatting with others.  Gradually, Zheng Shanyue couldn't help looking at the graceful singers one after another, and started chasing the dancing singers.

    The rest of the people also followed suit.

    The whole hall was buzzing with excitement.

    While the entire General Mansion was immersed in singing and dancing, a team was quietly approaching thirty miles northwest of Yongding City.

    This team was led by Nie Feng.

    He led his people to travel day and night, even taking small roads, so they successfully bypassed Caoshan Pass.

    Of course, the smooth passage relies on businessmen in the army who are familiar with the roads.  Otherwise, it would have been impossible to find so many trails and avoid the town so smoothly.

    It was almost afternoon, because this area was desolate, with mountain roads and no human habitation.

    So the group of people continued on their way.

    When we arrived at Yongding City, less than twelve miles away from the county seat, more people gathered in the surrounding area.  Even the roads gradually converged into an official road. Continuing on the road would easily expose their whereabouts, so the group found a mountain forest and hid all the more than 10,000 people.

    Nie Feng, Lin Yuze, and many others in the army stopped.

    Everyone should take time to rest.

    They were on their way now. They were rushing all the way. They never stopped to rest. Now that they finally had time, they naturally took all the time to rest without delay.

    Nie Feng and Lin Yuze are sitting together for the time being.

    Nie Feng looked at Lin Yuze, with a touch of worry on his face, and said worriedly: "Military advisor, according to the information that I have found out before, Yongding City is quite extraordinary. It has one main city and two auxiliary auxiliaries.  There are two small cities on the side, which are specially used for stationing troops and defense. Once we attack by force, even if our weapons are stronger, it will not be easy to break Yongding City. After all, these triangular cities can serve as each other's horns and support each other."

    This time to capture Yongding City, Nie Feng could only win but not lose.

    Once defeated, the plan to capture Goguryeo will be completely affected.

    Lin Yuze said: "General, if we really want to attack by force, it will definitely be difficult to win. With our current strategy, we implement a beheading plan. A small number of people sneak into Yongding City and try to kill the defenders of Yongding City. Although this strategy may not be a good one.  It may even be extremely dangerous, but it is the best way. Only in this way can we seize Yongding City without any bloodshed."

    After hearing this, Nie Feng nodded. He agreed with Lin Yuze's suggestion.

    This is the best way.

    Nie Feng said: "On the way, we have arranged for people to go to inquire about the news of Yongding City and the situation of Yongding City's guards. When the news comes back, we will know what the specific situation is, and the next plan will be more detailed.  Clear. I also agree, directly deal with the Yongding City defender. Only in this way can we win without bloodshed."

    Lin Yuze breathed a sigh of relief.

    With Nie Feng¡¯s approval, the next plan will go much smoother.

    It is not a matter of disagreement. After all, Yongding City is a strong city. Even if it has cannons and other weapons, they are on the offensive side, so the losses will be greater and the attack is not cost-effective.

    ¡°Rustling, rustling!!¡±

    At this time, there were footsteps.

    A sentinel hurriedly came to Nie Feng's side and reported: "General, we have now found out everything about the situation in Yongding City. General, please read it." (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com
