Chapter 79: Taking advantage of the situation
In the afternoon, Li Zhen led Kecheng with an army of five thousand and escorted Kecheng outside Jili City. Li Zhen said to Kecheng: "Let Kecheng, the defender of Jili City, lead his people out of the city and surrender, and Kecheng will be spared. Otherwise, If we capture Jili City, we will definitely kill Kecheng!"
Kecheng responded one after another and entered Jili City with a few guards, where he met his sworn brother Shi Kelie.
Kecheng told Shi Kelie how he was captured by Li Zhen, and wanted Shi Kelie to surrender out of love for Li Zhen, so he sent himself to persuade him to surrender.
Shi Kelie asked Kecheng: "Brother, do you plan to ask me to surrender to Li Zhen?"
"Hey, that's just a temporary measure. We are Goguryeo people, how can we surrender to the Tang people so easily? Besides, Li Zhen only has a few thousand troops. How can we last long if we go deep into the hinterland of Goguryeo?"
"Since Li Zhen wants us to surrender, we can use his plan to capture Li Zhen in one fell swoop and accomplish this great feat!"
"How does the eldest brother want to take advantage of the situation?" Shi Kelie asked.
Kecheng smiled sinisterly and whispered in Shi Kelie's ear
The setting sun is like blood!
At dusk, the closed gates of Jili City were opened wide. Kecheng and Shi Kelie led more than a hundred soldiers out of the city and asked to see Li Zhen and ask for his surrender.
Li Zhen immediately asked the guards to separate the two sides, and Feng Kecheng and Shi Kelie entered.
Seeing that Kecheng, Shi Kelie and more than a hundred soldiers were approaching, Li Zhen snorted coldly: "Come on, take it down for me!"
The next moment, the ambush soldiers on both sides jumped up and took action, capturing all the two Kecheng and more than a hundred soldiers.
Kecheng was shocked and shouted quickly: "Why is His Royal Highness the King of Yue like this? We are here to surrender!"
Li Zhen laughed loudly: "Kecheng, how can you hide your tricks from me?"
"If you want to take advantage of surrender to assassinate me, how can I let you succeed?"
"Pull it down and chop it!"
Kecheng and Shi Kelie were taken away. After a while, Jiang Xingba came to report: "Your Majesty, these more than a hundred soldiers are all armed with short blades. They really want to assassinate the Prince."
Li Zhen chuckled and said to yourself, you two have the brains to compete with me, you are a little too young.
"Enter the city!" Li Zhen yelled.
The next moment, five thousand cavalry swarmed forward and rushed into Jili City.
At this time, in Jili City, the original 3,000 Wangzhuang Army had no defense. They were cut down by 5,000 cavalry, cutting melons and vegetables, and were killed until rivers of blood flowed. In the end, only less than 200 of the 3,000 people escaped. The rest were all wiped out.
Li Zhen captured Shicheng and Jili City with almost no bloodshed. Li Zhen was very happy, especially after defeating Jili City, he captured two thousand sets of Goguryeo heavy armor and more than two thousand war horses. These equipment will undoubtedly be used in the war. Provide support for yourself in future battles.
Next, the only road leading to Pyongyang left in front of him was the city of Humili.
??Hangyi City is located on the bank of the Datong River and is also the only way to Ryugyong (Pyongyang). There are two thousand Goguryeo heavy infantry to Zhenning.
Although Shicheng and Jili City were captured, the Wang Zhuang soldiers who escaped from Jili City spread the news of the fall of Jili City to Hanyi City. There were cliffs on both sides of Hanyi City and the terrain was dangerous. Immediately after hearing the news of the attack, the door was closed tightly and prepared to wait for help.
When Li Zhen led people to the outside of Humi City, it was already early in the morning, and the sun was rising. From a distance, he could see that the entire Humi City was brightly lit with torches, as bright as day, and was heavily guarded. The suspension bridge had been retracted, and the soldiers on top of the city were He was ready with bows, arrows and crossbows.
Xue Rengui's face darkened, and he said to Li Zhen: "Your Majesty, the terrain of Humi Yi City is too dangerous. To capture Humi Yi City, if we attack by force, it will take at least seven days."
"Seven days?" Li Zhen shook her head, thinking that if the boss couldn't capture Pyongyang within two days, it would be completely destroyed. Where would you get so much time?
Of course, Li Zhen naturally couldn't tell Xue Rengui that the system gave me two days left, so Li Zhen said: "We only have one day at most. If we can't capture the humiliating city in one day, Liu Jing and the nearby Goguryeo army will They will swarm in, and by then, the five thousand of us will probably be completely wiped out."
Xue Rengui thought about it and realized that this was true. He gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, let me personally lead the charge!"
Li Zhenyi shook his head and said: "If we attack hard, there will be many casualties, and we won't be able to defeat the city of humiliation in a short time. Therefore, we can only defeat the city of humiliation wisely."
Xue Rengui scratched his head and asked him to lead the troops to fight, and asked him to think of a way. He was really not as good as his sworn brother Xue Xiantu, and not as good as Li Zhen.
Li Zhen thought, how can we outsmart the humiliating city?
There are cliffs on both sides of the city. The city connects the cliffs on both sides, and even birds cannot fly over.
Um?
Looking at the cliffs on both sides of the humiliating city, Li Zhen had an idea flash in his mind and came up with a solution.
If you can climb down from the cliff, you can directly sneak into the City of Humiliation!
But looking at the torches on the city head that were as bright as day, Li Zhen immediately gave up the idea.
There is one!
Li Zhen¡¯s mind was like a flash of lightning, thinking how could I be so smart to even think of such a solution!
hey-hey! I'm such a fucking genius!
"You heard me clearly, tonight I will strike with thunder and humiliate Yi City!"
The Tang army set up camp outside the city of Hanyi, and hundreds of Goguryeo captives were also imprisoned together. Each of these captives was uneasy, not knowing what kind of fate awaited them.
The captain of the school, Shi Hong, was originally a captain of Wang Zhuang's army in Jili City. He was from a noble family in Goguryeo. During Li Zhen's attack on Jili City in the afternoon, Shi Hong was captured by mistake. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries on his body. Just some skin injuries.
Shi Hong is always looking for opportunities to escape.
At this time, Shi Hong was imprisoned together with a dozen other captured Goguryeo officers.
After a while, I saw Tang Jun talking in the distance.
Shihong was a Goguryeo noble and had learned Chinese, so he could understand the conversation of the Tang army.
I heard a Tang soldier say: "Our prince is a god descending to earth. Although this humiliating city is strong, how can it stop the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty?"
Another Tang Jun said angrily: "Yes, our prince is casting a spell to ask the God of Thunder to help. They are humiliating the people in the city. If they don't escape, they will be struck to death by lightning in a while!"
"Keep your voice down! Don't let the Goguryeo people hear it. Otherwise, if the Goguryeo spies hear it and run away, then the prince's hard work will be in vain."
"That's right" The two Tang soldiers lowered their voices.
Hearing this, Shi Hong was shocked. As a Goguryeo noble, he had long heard that Li Zhen, the king of Yue in the Tang Dynasty, knew magic. He once breathed out the true fire of Samadhi and burned an army of 200,000 Xi people.
If Li Zhen really wants to cast a spell and use thunder to humiliate Yi City, then everyone in the city will probably suffer!
Shi Hong found a sharp stone and rubbed off the rope on his wrist. Then he untied the rope on his companion Xiang Feng and whispered: "We must spread this news to Hanyi City, otherwise, the defenders in the city will die." No burial place!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
