After the soldiers and horses of Goguryeo and several other countries entered Benxi City, they originally wanted to loot it on a large scale, but after they started to act, they found that not to mention the precious gold and silver treasures in the city, not even a grain of grain could be found. It can be said that today's Benxi City is just an empty city except for the soldiers and horses of several countries.

"What's going on?"

The generals of Goguryeo and other countries who were responsible for leading the team were summoned to Gao Jianchang and several other main generals, and Gao Jianchang's face was gloomy, and the faces of Jian Qiutai, Walton and others also had expressions. They have spent a lot of troops, material resources and financial resources, and now they are only getting an empty city, such a result is a difficult thing for them to accept. Therefore, these generals who are responsible for leading the team are naturally the first to accept the questioning.

"General Qiyu, the last general and other investigations found that everything that could be transferred in the city had been taken away. What is left behind is mostly useless or heavy. The last general assured that none of the soldiers below dared to be greedy for ink, and asked the general to be clear. ”

Several generals who were responsible for leading the team were also extremely aggrieved, and they naturally knew that Gao Jianchang and several other generals thought that they were greedy for money and did not report it. However, in fact, they also thought about greedy ink, but the enemy didn't give them a chance, and there really wasn't a stitch left for them in the city, even if they wanted to be greedy for ink, they didn't have anything to do with it. Now, I have to be suspected by my superiors, and there is really no place to vent this grievance.

"Stand down!"

The generals who led the teams in several countries are all in the same mouth, which is obviously true, and it is not that the people below conceal it. If the generals of a country dare to be greedy for ink, then it is also said that in the past, it was obviously impossible for the generals of several countries to do this together. After all, the relationship between each other is not harmonious, and doing this kind of thing without cooperation is simply looking for death.

"Hateful!"

After waiting for a few main generals left in the house, Gao Jianchang scolded indignantly, he took such a big effort to take an empty city, he was almost angry. A few other countries are okay to say that they just killed some soldiers, and some have confessed. However, they Goguryeo paid so much siege equipment such as stone throwers and chariots, and as a result, they didn't catch anything, if they sent this result back to the Goguryeo royal family, not to mention keeping his current position, maybe even a small life might not be able to be saved. You must know that for this dispatch of troops, Goguryeo can be said to have exhausted the manpower of the whole country to build siege equipment, and he Gao Jianchang gave such results. Even if you don't use the Goguryeo royal family, the people of Goguryeo can drown Gao Jianchang with a mouthful of spit.

After a moment of silence, Gao Jianchang swept his gaze to several other people, suppressed the chaotic mood in his heart, and said calmly: "Everyone, I don't know what you think?"

Walton looked east and west with a nonchalant expression, and in the midst of the scene, maybe he could still show such an expression. As the son of the leader of the Nanwofu tribe, this time Nanwofu sent troops, not to gain benefits, but because their neighbor Goguryeo was bullied by the Central Plains, so Nanwofu would send troops. It would be a good thing for Walton if he could return to the clan with benefits, and if there was no benefit at all, Walton would not be affected by it. As long as the soldiers and horses of the Central Plains were repelled and Goguryeo, a neighbor, was saved, it would be a victory for Walton. At least, judging from the current situation, their purpose of sending troops to Nanwo has been achieved.

In addition to Walton, the commanders of the five countries of Buyeo, Haoqian, Lou Ru, Ma Han and Chen Han obviously did not have such an easy time, and they accepted this position only to obtain benefits for their respective countries before sending troops. Otherwise, they are not fools like Nan Wofu, and there is no reason to send troops. Profit is the main reason for their actions.

"The people of the Central Plains are too hateful, this matter can't be left like that!"

Yehnaratonna said with a gloomy face. Yehena Ratonna's reaction attracted the attention of everyone present, mainly because this guy's performance was too intense. It stands to reason that the main target of the soldiers and horses in Youzhou is Goguryeo, and Goguryeo is not in a hurry.

Of course, it was naturally impossible for Yehnara to tell others why.

In fact, Yehenaratonna is not only the chief general of Hao, but also the elder of the Yehenara clan of several tribes in Haoqian.

It was once the largest tribe in Liaodong, composed of many ethnic groups, and was the most powerful force in Liaodong. Just like Goguryeo and Buyeo, they are actually a force that jumped out of the city. It's just that the development of Goguryeo and Buyeo is good, and they have already thrown off a few big roads in the birthplace of Haoqian. In this regard, several powerful ethnic groups in Haoqian are divided into two factions and hold two opinions.

One opinion is that if they continue to live in this way, they will be wiped out sooner or later, and that they should reform and change the law and expand their power. It's just that the supporters of both opinions are equal, and they have been arguing for an unknown number of years, but there is still no progress, and it has been dragging on.

And this time, Goguryeo asked for help, and Mi also had different opinions.

Originally, the faction that supported the continuation of the ancestors' way of life believed that this was a battle between Goguryeo and the Central Plains, and that they should not participate in it, and that no matter who won or lost, it would not matter much to them, while the other faction supported reform and reform, and they believed that they should agree to Goguryeo's request for help, send troops to Youzhou, and obtain benefits, so as to strengthen the tribe. Originally, according to the controversy between the two factions, there was no result. However, this time, the Yehenala clan, who supported the reform and reform, believed that they should send troops to loot resources from Youzhou and strengthen the tribe, and should not continue to be obscure. To this end, the patriarch of the Banu Yehnara promised numerous benefits, and finally got the opposing faction to agree with them. Therefore, it will promote the dispatch of troops this time. And Yehnara is the patriarch of the Yehnara clan, and knows that whether they can get huge benefits from this dispatch of troops is whether they can rise, and it is also a key war for whether their Yehnara clan can occupy the dominance of the Yehnara clan. Therefore, Yehnaratunna must gain enough to silence the voice of the opposition. However, now that nothing has been gained, Yehnaratonna will not be reconciled.

Of course, this is not the single most critical reason.

Only a few high-ranking members of the Yehnara clan knew that the ideals of the Yehnara clan patriarch were not limited to these. What he wanted was to strengthen the Haoqian, expand his power, and finally restore the status of the Haoqian clan as the boss in the Liaodong area. Even, the patriarch thought about sending troops to the Central Plains, occupying the Central Plains, and becoming the most powerful clan in the world. And as a member of the warlike Yehnara, Yehnara naturally fully supported the patriarch's approach.

Once, the ancestors of Goguryeo and Buyeo went out from Hao. At that time, the leadership of the Haoqian did not react, but allowed them to develop, and when they began to grow, the Haoqian family did not react, and continued to live in the way of their ancestors, ignoring foreign affairs. As a result, Goguryeo and Buyeo jumped on their heads, and the Hui clan, as the ancestor of Goguryeo and Buyeo, now lives according to the faces of others, which is undoubtedly a sad thing for the Hao clan. The diehards don't care, but the radicals feel that this is too unhappy, and the Hao clan must be reformed, otherwise they will be annihilated in the dust of history sooner or later. Based on these reasons, the patriarch of the Yehenara clan will insist on sending troops at all costs, and obtaining benefits from Youzhou is only the first step, and there will be more changes in the future. However, at least, you must get enough benefits in this battle, otherwise, everything is empty talk.

Perhaps knowing that his reaction just now was too intense, Yehena Ratonna immediately regained his composure, and his face like a dead wood did not show any expression, but said calmly: "We have suffered so many casualties, but in the end we have gained an empty city, I think the generals must be unwilling." Even if the generals are willing, they can't explain it to their respective monarchs, hehe!"

Yehna Ratonna's words are to the hearts of everyone, even if they accept this result, except for Walton, no one else can explain to their respective countries, if they run back in disgrace, how to explain, the position of the main general will be lost, they are afraid that they will not be able to save their lives.

"That's right!"

Ma Han's general Jin Tainong agreed with a straight face, "We can't just forget it, this time we can knock down the city, and the next time we can do the same, General Ben doesn't believe it, every time we attack the city, they will transfer all the people, money, grain and grass." ”

"Well, General Kim has a point!"

The Buyeo prince Jian Qiutai nodded and agreed with Kim Taenong's words. Benxi City is a huge city, and the people in the city dare not say that there are hundreds of thousands, and there are also 50,000 people. The transfer of people and supplies, not the march of soldiers, is an extremely difficult task. Jian Qiutai had thought about it just now, the transfer of people and materials in Benxi City could not be done in three or two days, and it must have been arranged a long time ago. In other words, in the past few days when their army attacked the city, the people had already moved, and perhaps, the Youzhou side had already decided to abandon Benxi City, and when Goguryeo and Nanwofu united, they had already begun to act.

However, there is one point that makes Jian Qiutai extremely puzzled.

Because of the reason of Fuyu Wangwei's hatred of Taiwan, Jian Qiutai's understanding of the Central Plains is also extremely deep. The generals of the Central Plains usually defend the city to the death, people are in the city, and the city is broken and people die. How could Tai Shici dare to give up the city and transfer all the people? As far as Jian Qiutai understood, such an act in the Central Plains would be beheaded.

Of course, Jian Qiutai naturally didn't know that Yuan Chang, the owner of Youzhou, was an alternative. He didn't have the idea of defending the city at all, even if he fought everyone out, he had to protect the city. In today's technologically backward age, population is undoubtedly the most important. Ten years ago, there were still tens of millions of people in the world, but after experiencing wars such as the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the Dong Zhuo Rebellion, there were only more than 10 million people today, and after the end of several wars such as Guandu and Chibi, there were millions of people in the world. Otherwise, with the advantages of population, troops and equipment in the Central Plains, what can Wuhu do. Others didn't know this, but Yuan Chang knew it very well. Therefore, although it is said that defending the city can also solve the combined forces of Goguryeo and other countries, Yuan Chang just wants to minimize the loss of soldiers and die one less. Therefore, they will abandon Benxi City and use tactics to eliminate the forces of Goguryeo and other countries.

Gao Jianchang saw that several main generals failed to put forward any constructive proposals in the left and right sentences, and seemed to be a little unbearable, looked at Jian Qiutai, and asked, "Prince Jian Qiutai, what do you think we should do next?"

Among the main generals present, except for Jian Qiutai, who was a little strategic, the others were not taken seriously by Gao Jianchang at all. For example, Yehena Ratonna and Kim Taenong, although they spoke in a rough voice, they were of no use at all except for some conspiracy and calculation. Of course, this kind of thing must not be said, otherwise, let alone attacking Youzhou, I am afraid that they themselves will immediately start fighting.

Jian Qiutai pondered for a moment, glanced at the rough map a few times, raised his head after a moment and said: "General Gao, there is a city called Xiangping hundreds of miles west of Benxi City, which is the seat of Liaodong County, and it must be an important city. The money, grain and grass in the city must also be abundant, if we can take Xiangping City, we will be able to make up for the loss of our troops. Therefore, I think that next, we can send troops to Xiangping City. ”

"Prince Jianqiutai's thoughts coincide with General Ben, and General Ben also plans to send troops to Xiangping City. Gao Jianchang praised with a smile, and then asked: "It's just that it's not easy to capture Xiangping City." There are still 50,000 soldiers and horses forbidden by the general of Youzhou in Shiqiaozi City in the southeast of Benxi City, and according to the scout's investigation, although Tai Shici gave up Benxi City, the soldiers and horses did not withdraw, but the deep ditch of Daliuyu City, which must be passed through to Xiangping City, obviously, it seems that we have expected that we will send troops to Xiangping City, what is the high opinion of Prince Jianqiutai?"

"General Gao has an overreputation, Gao Jian doesn't dare to be, he just has a little idea!"

Jian Qiutai responded lightly, and then expressed his opinion, saying: "In a war with the Central Plains, what we are most afraid of is that they will defend the city, if there is no advantage of the city, it will not be difficult for us and others. And now General Gao, you have a siege weapon in your hands, you just need to fight steadily and advance all the way to Xiangping City, which is not a difficult task. ”

"Haha!"

Gao Jianchang laughed out loud and praised: "Prince Jianqiutai's idea is exactly what I want, so let's do so, but I want to see how Tai Shici can stop us and other soldiers and horses!" (To be continued.) )
