Chapter 250: The Returnee (Ask for a full monthly pass)

Lushun County Wugu City and South Fuyu City are located in the area of Dandong and Donggang in Liao Province in later times, and are connected by the Great Wall built by Goguryeo prisoners of war, the former was renamed Danyang City, and the latter was renamed Danfeng City.

Every piece of rammed earth and every bluestone brick in Danfeng City is dripping with blood, every inch of land under the city wall is dark red, and there are countless blood puddles underground.

The corpses were stacked on top of each other, like small hills, shocking, severed limbs and stumps were everywhere, huge rocks and trees kept pouring down, and the Goguryeo army was smashed down from the ladder, flesh and blood were flying, and the terrible screams were endless.

After the wave of attacks retreated, no less than 5,000 Goguryeo soldiers stepped on the corpses of their companions on the ground like wild horses, and fiercely rushed towards Danfeng City, shouting some strange words in their mouths.

Yuan Taizuo and Yizhi Wende are in the Chinese army, the faces of the two are very ugly, since the attack has been launched, it has been a full thirteen days, and more than 30,000 people have been lost, and they still can't break through the strong city in front of them, and the Sui army generals are guarding the city, which makes the two feel frightened, and makes them firmly remember the name Zuo Tiancheng.

On the top of the city, I saw Zuo Tiancheng's tall and pine-like figure emerge, looking at the Goguryeo army swarming under the city, raising his right arm with a calm face, and suddenly the eyes of thousands of archers focused on his right arm.

Danbong Fortress was built on the coastline, which was the flattest road for Goguryeo to enter Lushun County, and compared with the ratio, Danyang City and Hemaigu City were much more difficult, because the latter two were condescending mountain cities, and Goguryeo had a million male divisions, and there was no terrain to expand, so the enemy launched a fierce offensive against Danbong City day and night, trying to open the passage to the west with human lives.

This city is the gateway of the Great Sui, and the Taishou Deng Wei gave Zuo Tiancheng 20,000 troops, assisted by Meng Zhongcai, the commander of Lushun County.

Zuo Tiancheng was a survivor of the Battle of Sashui, leading a remnant of the Sui army to fight in the bushes, and successively collected thousands of lost Sui troops, they got together in order to survive, like a family, and overcame the harsh environment, but the Goguryeo people hated the Central Plains, regarded them as a thorn in the flesh, and constantly squeezed and suppressed them. But in the end, although there were losses, the main force survived tenaciously, and when they heard that the Great Sui had recovered the lost territory in Liaodong, they did not hesitate to go down the mountain to vote. After the news was transmitted back to Yecheng, Zuo Tiancheng was canonized by Yang Tong as Lushun Tongshou, and his status was only below Deng Wei.

Zuo Tian is about forty years old, burly, dignified, skilled in bow and horse, originally only a captain of the Sui Dynasty, but quite brave, from the perspective of Meng Zhongcai, Zuo Tiancheng, who was in his heyday, arrived in China, and his martial arts were at least in the second stage! What is even more rare is that after many years of fighting in the mountains, he is quite familiar with Goguryeo's tactics, and Danfengcheng can hold on for so long, and Zuo Tiancheng should be the first to take the lead.

When the Goguryeo army came about two hundred steps outside the city, Zuo Tiancheng's eyes flashed with cold light, and his raised right arm waved down fiercely. Suddenly, a thunderous roar resounded through the city: "Release the arrows." ”

The defenders bent their bows with all their might, and the rain of arrows immediately fell in clusters over the Goguryeo army, lacking defensive tools, and a large number of poorly equipped Goguryeo soldiers fell in an instant, and they could hit the target by shooting down casually.

"Ahh

The endless wailing rose in the sky in an instant, and the Goguryeo soldiers fell on the cold frozen soil, and the eyes of Yuan Taizuo in the rear were full of distress, even if they won this battle, Goguryeo would not gain anything, but suffered heavy losses, which is the sadness of a small country with a small country and a small number of widows.

After losing a few hundred men, the soldiers finally erected dozens of ladders with difficulty.

Zuo Tiancheng pulled out his horizontal knife and ordered in a loud and methodical manner:

"Archers stand back and shoot and kill! Spearmen advance and stop the enemy from entering the city! The sword shield knife is in charge! ”

A thousand archers began to shoot arrows at the Goguryeo soldiers outside the city. The sword and shield soldiers raised their shields to block the arrows flying up to the city, covering the advance of more than a thousand pikemen, and stood all over the city in an orderly manner. Before the Goguryeo soldiers, who had finally climbed to the top of the city, had no time to draw their swords, dozens of sharp spears had already volleyed into the air. In an instant, they were stabbed into hedgehogs.

"Poof!!"

The spear stabbed like lightning and retracted as quickly as a poisonous spitting letter, and the corpse, which had lost its support, suddenly fell from the air.

The next moment! Dozens of ladders were pushed out by forks, and after being upright, they continued to tilt outward, and finally collapsed with a bang, and the dozens of Goguryeo soldiers who climbed on the ladders were like drowning people who had fallen into the water. Falling from mid-air, his tendons were broken and he let out a series of terrible screams.

"Waste, waste"

Yuan Taizuo in the rear roared angrily when he saw this scene, it has been nearly half a month, and the nearly 140,000 army has not been able to shake the city in front of him at all.

When Etochi Wende next to him heard this, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, but he immediately ordered: "Continue to attack the city." ”

"Kill!" The army charged again.

Zuo Tiancheng smiled coldly: "Give them some color to see, pour cold water on it!" ”

"No!"

I saw a basin of cold water immediately poured down on the Goguryeo soldiers, and according to the unit of measurement of later generations, the temperature is now absolutely below zero degrees Celsius.

In this icy weather, the Goguryeo soldiers felt particularly sour, and they wailed bitterly one by one and fled desperately.

Such a 'tragic' scene made Yuan Taizuo unable to hold on any longer, and shouted: "Withdraw the army, withdraw the army"

"Don't leave the branch, this is just the beginning!" Ezhi Wende said dissatisfied.

"Didn't the big brother find out that the soldiers have no fighting spirit?" Yuan Taizuo replied angrily, pulled the horse and walked away.

A trace of helplessness flashed in Eulzhi Wende's eyes, the power of the cold water at this time is indeed more powerful than the arrows, although it can't kill people, but after more than ten days, the brave Goguryeo soldiers are not afraid of bow arrows, but they are all defeated by the cold water, and many people are sick and frozen to death.

When the Sui army at the head of the city saw this scene, he immediately let out a burst of cheers, and Zuo Tiancheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Mai Zhongcai's face was speechless: "Our army is short of arrows!" Fortunately, General Zuo thought of this trick! General Zuo, who did you learn this trick from? ”

Zuo Tiancheng smiled: "Your father, General Mai Tiecane." ”

"......" Meng Zhongcai.

……

Half a month after the bloody battle in Danfeng City, Yang Tong led the five armies of his descendants and marched day and night to attack Danfeng City.

The Danfengcheng military camp was built at the mouth of the Banqiao River, east of the Wuhu Sea (Yellow Sea), excluding the defenders, the Great Sui army totaled 70,000 water and land troops, and there were 40,000 Turkic slave soldiers.

The army of more than 100,000 stretched for more than ten miles, and the camp was huge. More than 1,000 sea ships in the bay are densely arranged in the distance, the hull is like a mountain, the mast is like a forest, covering the sky and the sun, and it is magnificent.

Yang Tong looked at it from a distance, and this military camp was like a castle, majestic.

Thinking that more than 100,000 elite soldiers and fierce generals are under his command, this is the first time he has commanded an army of 150,000 since he was reborn, just thinking about it makes him proud.

"Your Highness, General Deng, General Zuo, and General Meng have come to greet you!" Luo Shixin reported loudly.

Yang Tong said loudly: "Please!" ”

In fact, the military and the government should be separated, so that the subordinates will not have some bad ideas because of excessive power, but the talents of these years are all civil and military all-rounders who govern the army and the country on the horse, and it is difficult to divide the civil and military, so today's county guards, general guards, and county officials are almost all military and political at the same time, which is also a special system produced in order to avoid delaying the fighter plane.

However, with the addition of a large number of talents, this chaotic situation is slowly changing, except for the border counties that are always ready for war, the inner counties in the heart have completed the separation of military and government. In the future, the military power of the border counties and generals will also be slowly restricted, not because they don't trust everyone, but because the Great Sui wants to develop healthily, the rights of his subordinates cannot be too expanded, and the military power must be firmly grasped in their own hands to be safe.

At this moment, the sound of huge horses' hooves suddenly sounded, shaking the earth, and I saw a tall general in black armor with sharp eyes galloping towards a group of cavalry, about thirty in number.

"The last general, Deng Wei, meet His Highness!" After Deng Wei saw Yang Tong from afar, he hurriedly jumped off the horse and gave a respectful salute.

"No need to be polite," looking at Deng Wei, who had added a few strands of gray hair, Yang Tong sighed and said: "Two years of parting, as if it was yesterday, the general is much haggard.!" ”

"Your Highness is becoming more and more powerful." Deng Wei laughed loudly.

Yang Tong sincerely admired: "This camp set up by General Deng is connected by land and water, orderly, both offensive and defensive, just look at the camp like a fortress, you will know that General Deng's chest is really extraordinary, let you guard Lushun for so long is really condescending, the general should be in Yecheng, for my Great Sui to cultivate more outstanding generals." ”

"Your Highness has won the prize." Deng Wei's face was happy, and he pointed to one of the fierce generals on the side, and introduced: "Your Highness, this is General Lushun through Zuo Tiancheng." ”

"The last general, Zuo Tiancheng, pays a visit to His Royal Highness the King of Qin!" Zuo Tiancheng bowed to the ground, looking very excited.

Yang Tong helped him up, and said in awe: "General Zuo, all the warriors of the Great Sui have military merits, the Great Sui will not forget you, and I, Yang Tong, will not forget you." ”

After these Great Sui warriors who fell into Goguryeo returned to the territory of the Great Sui, none of them were willing to go home, they felt that they were defeated generals, and even they could not feel at ease, and they had no shame to face their hometown fathers and elders, so they all stayed in Xiangping and Lushun counties, planning to one day be able to make meritorious service to atone for their sins, and only went back after making great contributions.

Zuo Tiancheng's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Please Your Highness must enter the capital of Goguryeo, demolish the Jingguan of your comrades, and let your comrades be buried in peace." ”

Yang Tong's heart was sour, and he said solemnly: "I, Yang Tong, swear here, that I will not demolish the Beijing Temple and swear not to be a teacher......"

What is Kyokan?

Jingguan is to cut off the heads of captives, and then build a tower with soil layer by layer, to show the martial courage of the Goguryeo people, a Jingguan at least a few thousand heads, and these are the heads of the warriors of the Great Sui.

When Liaodong was recovered that year, the Sui army had already demolished dozens of Jingguan. But there are many, many more on the east and west sides of the Yalushui River.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Zuo Tiancheng, a man who is majestic and abnormal, and is not afraid of death, is in tears at this time.
