Chapter 51 Survival in the cracks
Umaiden was a little tired, so he asked a few dancers to leave first, stretched out, and asked the attendants beside him: "Has the second young master come back?"
The attendant whispered: "General, there is no news about the second young master yet."
Wu Mai Dewen frowned. Speaking of which, Quangai Suwen used Wu Mai Dewen as the guard of Anshi City. Wu Mai Dewen did not live up to Quangai Suwen's trust and built Anshi City into an impregnable one. .
But recently, Wumaidewen has encountered troubles. His immediate boss, Quan Gaiwu, the second son of Quan Gaisuwen, the great Molizhi, actually led troops to the Tang Dynasty privately, and so far, he still No news.
Wumaidewen was very uneasy. If something happened to Quan Gaiwu, Quan Gaisuwen would definitely punish him.
At that time, I just thought that Quan Gaiwu was eager to perform meritorious service, and the Tang Dynasty had weak troops in Youzhou. There should be no danger for Quan Gaiwu to leave Goguryeo, so he turned a blind eye to Quan Gaiwu privately leading his troops to leave Goguryeo. Close one eye.
But now there is no news about Quan Gaiwu. Could something have happened?
How should I explain to Da Molizhi!
Just as he was thinking about it, two soldiers helped a man covered in blood in. Wumedewen couldn't help but was stunned and asked in surprise: "Who is this?"
"General, I am Zhu Li!" Zhu Li cried and fell to the ground.
Umaid Wen said something bad must have happened!
"Zhu Li? Didn't you follow General Quan Gaiwu to the Tang Dynasty? How did you end up like this?"
Zhu Li cried and said: "General Quan Gaiwudied in battle"
At that moment, Zhu Li told the story of how Quan Gaiwu met Li Zhen on the road, and how Quan Gaiwu was beheaded by Li Zhen after the battle between the two sides.
When Wumaidewen heard it, he felt dizzy and his face turned from red to black, from black to purple.
"Pounce!" A mouthful of old blood spurted out, and he would have fallen to the ground if it weren't for the support of several guards.
"How can I explain this to Da Molizhi!" Wumaidewen cried sadly.
"General, please rush to report from Chifeng 800 Miles. A Tang army has occupied the new city and is marching towards Chifeng City. General, please send reinforcements as soon as possible!"
"What? The Tang army occupied the new city?"
"How can this be?"
Wumaidewen was shocked again. During the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo three times. In the end, instead of destroying Goguryeo, the huge Sui Dynasty was dragged down. After decades, the army of the Central Plains Dynasty also Did not enter the territory of Goguryeo.
¡°And there is no intelligence showing that the Tang Dynasty conscripted large-scale troops to conquer Goguryeo. So, where did this Tang army come from?
Why didn¡¯t they attack Houhuang City and Liaodong City in the border areas, but went directly to Xincheng in the hinterland of Goryeo?
What on earth is this Tang army going to do?
Could it be Cheng Yaojin¡¯s troops from Youzhou?
Everything is a mystery. The Tang army came so suddenly that Goguryeo's intelligence network did not play its due role.
Wumaidewen calmed down and then asked: "How many people are there in the Tang army?"
"About ten thousand riders."
Wanqi? The Tang State only had 20,000 cavalry in the entire Youzhou. They actually sent 10,000 cavalry to attack Goguryeo?
There are 600,000 soldiers in Goguryeo! Could it be that Cheng Yaojin had the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage?
However, since the Tang army was about to attack Chifeng, he had to go to the rescue. If he could wipe out the invading Tang army in one fell swoop, then Da Molizhi would definitely be able to forgive himself for not taking good care of Quan Gaiwu.
Thinking of this, Umedewen gritted his teeth and said: "Gather the troops immediately, I will personally lead the army to Chifeng!"
At the moment, Umedewen has exhausted all 90,000 troops in Ti'an City and is heading to Chifeng. Only 10,000 Mohe mercenaries are left to garrison in the entire An City. A big war is imminent!
In the new city, there were fires everywhere, dyeing the night sky orange red. Li Zhen stood on the city wall, watching all this blankly. This is war. Since it is to weaken the strength of Goguryeo, then there cannot be a woman's kindness. What these recruits need is blood and property, which satisfies them and greatly stimulates their combat effectiveness. On the contrary, his troops go deep into the hinterland of Goguryeo and may be swallowed up by Goguryeo at any time.
There was a trace of sadness on Li Ruyi's face. Although he had long heard from Li Zhen that after the city was conquered, half of the property would belong to the soldiers, but what Li Ruyi did not expect was that it would be such a hellish scene.
"Are you heartbroken? The Goguryeo people have been harassing Youzhou of the Tang Dynasty over the years, encroaching on our Tang Dynasty territory, and killing the people of our Tang Dynasty. What we are doing now is just returning to them what the Goguryeo people have done."
"I understand." Li Ruyi nodded with difficulty.
Li Zhen said coldly: "I have stayed in this new city for long enough. If my guess is correct, the Koreans in Anshi should already know what happened in the new city."
In fact, during the day, Li Zhen sent 500 soldiers to march towards Chifeng with great fanfare and the posture of a large army, in order to attract the attention of the Goguryeo army in Anshi.
Li Zhen believes that the Anjuli army in Anshi will definitely come to Chifeng at starry night. If they can't see the Tang army in Chifeng, they will come to Xincheng, so they don't have much time for themselves.
"General Li, now, we have to implement the second step of the plan."
"Second step plan?"
"Our troops are divided into two groups. You lead Yanyun's eighteen cavalry and five thousand soldiers and horses to attack Anshi. I will stay in Xincheng to contain the Goguryeo army attacking Anshi."
"No, this is too dangerous. Wouldn't it put His Highness in danger?" Li Ruyi shook his head repeatedly.
"Since we are attacking, we should attack bigger. Anshi is the largest and strongest city in Goguryeo, Liaodong. It is the place where supplies are stored. If we capture Anshi, burn it down immediately. In this way, we can inflict heavy damage on Goguryeo. According to my calculations, , now the Goguryeo army in Anshi will definitely come out in full force, this is a good opportunity for us to capture Anshi." Li Zhen said in a condensed voice.
"But it is too dangerous to leave His Highness alone in the new city."
"Only when I am here can the Goguryeo people be attracted. Without me, do you think the Goguryeo people will be fooled?"
Li Ruyi thought for a long time, gritted his silver teeth and said, "Please take care of yourself, Your Highness, Ruyi will live up to your trust!"
Li Ruyi knew that Li Zhen was determined and could not change it. In this case, he had to conquer Anshi as soon as possible. After conquering Anshi, the Goguryeo army would naturally return to the defense. In this way, Li Zhen could turn the crisis into safety.
At that moment, Li Ruyi led Yanyun's eighteen cavalry and five thousand cavalry to attack Anshi overnight. Li Ruyi deliberately avoided Chifeng, so that he would not meet the Goguryeo army halfway.
Li Zhenze ordered all the remaining Goguryeo people in the new city to be driven out of the city, and at the same time, the city defenses were reinforced to prepare for the attack of the Goguryeo army.
"Ding! The rescue mission is activated. The host can survive the Goguryeo attack and receive massive rewards after completion." The system voice came from the mind.
Li Zhen was refreshed and received massive rewards. This system has always been proportional to effort and reward. It seems that this mission is really extremely dangerous (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
