According to Hu Sizheng's idea, if there was a large-scale attack, with the 20,000 horses of the Goryeo army camp and the 15,000 cavalry of the outer Abao caves, it would definitely be able to break the Sui army's camp, so that the connection between the Wuci side and the Sui army on the Liaodong City side would be cut off, so as to gain the initiative.

But such a good strategy was abandoned by this conservative Yuanzuo. How willing did this make him?

So, he said tentatively: "General Yuan, these enemy troops in front of you are obviously a group of rabble, and they have no combat effectiveness at all. It is better for us to leave 5,000 people to stay in the camp, and the rest of the men and horses will go out, contact the general Abao Cave on the periphery, and launch a fierce attack on the Sui army camp together. We will definitely win the battle! ”

"This ......" After hearing this, Yuan Zuo frowned, and secretly thought that what Hu Sizheng said seemed to have some truth. The Sui army in front of them is indeed a little worse in combat effectiveness. Estimate that you can defeat it with a single charge. Such an easy-to-reach victory is on the table, and it seems a little unreasonable not to go for it.

However, the Sui army has always been scheming, and the coach Yu Ming is also a small conspirator. What if he deliberately showed weakness and lured himself out of the camp, and then sent someone to set up an ambush to cut himself off from retreating?

When Yuan Zuo hesitated, he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him, and when he looked back, he saw a knight dressed in black rushing towards him. And he also recognized this person, it was the pro-soldiers around Gao Jianwu who were happy. Gao Jianwu's orders are generally conveyed by him.

Happy as he ran quickly, he shouted in his mouth: "General Yuan, the marshal has an urgent order!" ”

The generals of the Goryeo Army on the side were all stunned, secretly wondering if Gao Jianwu had made any major discoveries?

After a while, Gao Xingfang galloped in front of Yuan Zuo, then turned over and dismounted: "General Yu Yuan, this is the marshal's secret order!" ”

With that, he raised his hands above his head and handed a letter sealed with fire paint to Yuanzuo.

Yuan Zuo took the letter with a surprised expression, then tore open the envelope and took out the letter paper.

When he read the contents of the letter, his face changed suddenly.

Hu Sizheng was also wondering in his heart, was there something wrong with Gao Jianwu. He then hurriedly asked, "General Yuan, what is there to tell the marshal?" You might as well listen to it, Hu can also analyze it for the general and come up with ideas! ”

At this time, Na Yuanzuo looked up to the sky and said with a long smile: "Okay, you Hu Sizheng, worthy of being a cunning Sui person, actually played a fake surrender and acted as Yuming's internal response." If it weren't for the marshal's wit and courage, his eyes like a good eye, and his timely discovery, I'm afraid that I would have fallen in your way! ”

"Yuanzuo, what nonsense are you talking about? You think I'm a spy? When Hu Sizheng heard this, he was immediately angry. His parents, wife and children were all beheaded by Yang Guang, because he hated the royal family of the Sui Dynasty. He once made a heavy oath to overthrow the Great Sui as his lifelong goal. That's why he surrendered to Gao Yuan and gave advice to Goryeo to resist the invasion of the Sui army. But he never expected that Gao Jianwu would suspect that he was the internal response of the Sui army and a fake surrender.

"Humph! Hu Sizheng, you have to quibble! Is what the marshal said false? I see that you have been encouraging me to send troops to attack the Sui army camp before, and I am afraid that you are not at ease, you want to lure me out of the camp and let the Sui army just sneak attack? Or lure me into the ambush of the Sui army? Yuan Zuo asked with a cold snort.

Hu Sizheng was trembling with anger, he never thought that he was dedicated to giving advice to the Goryeo, and these people of different races even suspected him of being an internal response.

It took him a long time to calm down the resentment in his chest, and said in a deep voice: "General Yuan, I don't know who Marshal Gao listened to so maliciously slandered, you must know that I, Hu Sizheng and the Sui Emperor Yang Guang, have a grudge against killing my father, and my whole family died in his hands, I ......"

"Alright, alright! I'm too lazy to listen to what you have to say! Yuan Zuo waved his hand with disdain: "Come on, take him down and lock him up!" I'll deal with it when the marshal returns! ”

With that, two wolf-like soldiers, like eagles catching chickens, twisted Hu Sizheng's arms, and then dragged them to the back of the camp.

Hu Sizheng was angry and anxious, and shouted loudly: "It's really unthinkable!" Hu really mistook you Koreans......"

However, now these Goryeo soldiers are still willing to listen to him, and seeing that their generals have not changed their minds, they also understand and take him down.

But fortunately, they took into account that Hu Sizheng's status was not ordinary. In case Gao Jianwu suddenly figured it out again one day and planned to use this person again, it would be very inappropriate to offend him. Therefore, the Goryeo soldiers did not make it too difficult for Hu Sizheng, and it was called imprisonment, but in fact it was like house arrest. Except that he couldn't leave the tent within a radius of fifty feet, it was no different from usual.

Hu Sizheng sat on the bed in this tent, angry and anxious. secretly thought that the Goryeo army would confront the Sui army with such a posture, and sooner or later it would be defeated. Why should he be buried with Goryeo, which is about to perish?

I heard that the Sui army officer said that the Yuan clan and the Dugu clan in the Guanlong Gate Lords had rebelled, so Yang Guang had to return to the division to quell the rebellion. If you want to find Yang Guang to avenge the murder of the whole family, why don't you go to join a rebel army?

Thinking of this, his mind moved again. He looked at the two soldiers guarding him, laughing and swearing. And not far away, outside the fence, there is a small river. Due to the heavy rain for many days, the river had risen a lot, and the bank was so close to the fence that if he could get outside the fence, he could jump into the river and escape before the Goryeo soldiers could react.

Hu Sizheng carefully examined the surrounding situation, and suddenly his eyes lit up, because he noticed that there was a large hole in the fence on the right, which seemed to have been bitten by wild boars or leopards. So he frowned, and suddenly remembered.

Hu Sizheng snorted at this time, and said with a smile to the two Goryeo soldiers guarding him: "Can I go to the side and go out of Gong?" ”

The two Goryeo soldiers didn't care, waved their hands and said, "Go and go back quickly!" ”

Hu Sizheng was overjoyed, so he thanked him, and then pretended to be very casual, and slowly approached the edge of the fence with a big hole......

……

The white clouds in front of the Five Dragons Valley seemed to be reflected in blood, and the brilliant sunlight shone on the white clouds, adding a faint golden color to it.

The golden sunlight shone on the faces of the soldiers of the two armies, shining on the land of the sea of blood that had become corpses, showing an extraordinary contrast.

The soldiers of the Goryeo Army may have thought that they were defending their homeland and the righteous side of the invasion.

However, the soldiers of the Sui army, under the guidance of Yu Ming, thought that they were fighting for the peace of the Great Sui and for the blessings of the Han people in the world, and their confidence was not weak at all.

However, due to the long-term attack, on the contrary, they lost soldiers and generals one after another, and all the generals under Gao Jianwu were sweating on their foreheads.

After a while, Gao Jianwu finally couldn't bear it anymore and ordered: "Gaisu has rested enough, let him lead five thousand heavy cavalry to attack the right flank of the Sui army!" ”

The right flank of the Sui army was the thousand light cavalry who had made meritorious contributions before, and they had been waiting for the opportunity to give Gao Jianwu's infantry a fatal blow. Gao Jianwu knew very well that this army was a big problem and could not be eliminated. It was precisely because of their existence that he never dared to let go of the attack.

But now he has finally lost his patience. After careful observation, Gao Jianwu found that behind these light cavalry was the mountain wall, and those iron-tired archers were not placed. If you can get rid of these light cavalry first, or at least force them to loosen their formation, then you will have an opportunity to take advantage of it.

After he gave the order, the flags in the Goryeo army's phalanx flew and the horns sounded, injecting a more solemn atmosphere into the already tense front of the Five Dragons Valley.

In order to cooperate with Gaisu's attack, Gao Jianwu ordered his infantry to step forward bravely, and be sure to hold off the Sui infantry in front of them, so that they could not go forward to support the light cavalry that were lined up in ten rows.

The shieldmen and archers of the Goryeo army rushed forward at this time, and they stepped on the corpses of their comrades and enemies to advance steadily, and while using their shields to block the enemy's crossbow arrows, they also began to draw their bows and arrows and shoot back. All of a sudden, the crossbow arrows in the sky rained down, and the sky was overwhelming. Although the soldiers in the front row on both sides were mostly protected by shields, they were also hit by arrows one after another.

Gao Jianwu's attack invested a large number of troops, except for his own 2,000 personal soldiers and 8,000 reserves, all the troops, including his most elite heavy cavalry, were exhausted, and he had the momentum of never withdrawing troops until he took Taniguchi.

Under their thunderous attack, the momentum of the Sui army stagnated slightly. After all, their current strength is still at a disadvantage. In this kind of head-fighting bow and arrow shooting, there is not much advantage.

And Gaisu's heavy cavalry was even faster, and they had already rushed to a place only two steps away from the Sui cavalry. They wielded spears about a foot long, and when the cavalry on the opposite side rushed over, they could pick the enemy off their horses with a single spear.

The black spears glittered in the sunlight, and Gao Jianwu's 5,000 heavy cavalry were all people with long arms, strong martial arts, and strong physiques, otherwise they would not have become the trump card division in the Goryeo army.

Gaisu led the heavy cavalry and bravely attacked the Sui light cavalry on the right flank, originally thinking that there would be a bloody battle. But unexpectedly, these enemy cavalry, who had inflicted heavy casualties on him before, suddenly turned around and fled towards the valley.

He was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect that these cavalry would run away without a fight. However, he also saw that this was a good opportunity. Because these cavalry fled backwards, they would break up the formation of the infantry and give them an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"Rush! Warriors of Goryeo, victory or defeat in one fell swoop! Gaisu yelled, then whipped the horse's ass a few times. At this time, he found that the Sui army camp in front of him was really a little chaotic, and the number of sharp arrows shot by those archers who released arrows was also a lot less.

Under the escape of the cavalry of the Sui army, a gap was instantly opened, and the formation was suddenly loosened.
