Under the shroud of blood, the domestic city was covered with a layer of red clothing, and the land inside the city was filled with the blood of countless Goguryeo people, and even the sky was red by the glow, and everyone was immersed in a sea of red blood.

On July 1, 185 A.D., after Gao Suicheng completed the clearance of the domestic city, he officially took the stage to worship and pray to the sky.

The Goguryeo people have always boasted that they were born of heaven and earth, and that the sun and the moon came, so when the kings of all dynasties ascended the throne, they would hold heavy sacrificial ceremonies.

In the center of the city, on the large altar, several priests were holding scepters in their hands, muttering ancient scriptures in their mouths.

Under the stage, Gao Suicheng was proud, this moment finally came, and he would be the king of Goguryeo in the future.

"Invite the king to ascend to the altar and be bowed down by all the people!"

Gao Suicheng took three steps and two steps, climbed the sacrificial platform, and then took the royal battle in the hands of the high priest, held it high above his head, and shouted: "People of Goguryeo, from today onwards, I ...... Gao Suicheng...... He is your king. ”

"This king swears to heaven that he will lead my people to expand the territory, kill into the territory of the Han people, avenge the previous king, and dominate the entire territory of ten thousand miles."

In front of the stage, Gao Ji led the commanders of the army, centurions and other generals to kneel down and said: "Swear allegiance to the king." ”

Immediately afterwards, thousands of Goguryeo soldiers on the periphery of the altar also knelt down one after another, shouting in unison: "Swear to follow the king to the death!" ”

Those nobles who were forced to come to participate in the sacrifice also had to bow their knees and bow, and people were under the eaves, how could they not bow their heads.

After receiving the bowing of all the people, Gao Suicheng shouted: "Gao Halberd stepped forward to listen to the order!" ”

Gao Ji's face was happy, he strode forward, bowed down and said, "The end will be!" ”

"From now on, you will be the general of Goguryeo, commanding the soldiers and horses of the whole country, and conquering the Quartet for this king."

"King Xie!"

"Dada and Aris, you two have made meritorious contributions to killing the enemy, and have been promoted from centurion to thousand-torn."

In the centurion array, the two of them ran out and bowed to Gao Suicheng.

……

Gao Suicheng's generals rewarded them one by one, and finally said solemnly: "There is one more thing, from today onwards, my Goguryeo will have one more king of the sun, whose status is second only to this king, and the whole country needs to be controlled by it." ”

The King of the Sun?

The nobles in those domestic cities fell into a state of confusion one by one, and they didn't know what Gao Suicheng was doing.

"I invite the benefactor of this king to come to power day by day."

The Wuhuan military general swaggered onto the high platform, with a smile on his face, as if he had been carried away by the title of the king of the sun.

At the outermost part of the altar, Liu Yi and Li Tao couldn't help but applaud when they looked at the grand occasion in front of them.

"Strategist, it's time for this drama to end!"

Li Tao turned his head and smiled: "It's time to end, Guan Hai's soldiers and horses will come to the city the day after tomorrow at the latest, and when the time comes, it will be over." ”

……

Two days later, the domestic city royal court.

When Gao Suicheng was convening the king of Zhuri, Gao Ji and other generals to discuss the matter of raising troops to attack Xuansu County, suddenly a centurion hurriedly ran in and bowed: "King, the big thing is not good, the Han people...... The Han cavalry was only less than fifty miles away from the city. ”

"Ah......h

Gao Suicheng was stunned beyond description, he had just discussed how to attack Xuansu County, and the enemy had already come to the door.

"How many soldiers and horses are there?"

The centurion replied, "This cavalry is in such a hurry that it is estimated that there are two or three thousand men. ”

Two or three thousand?

Gao Sui Cheng Mu Ne's meal, with only two or three thousand people, he dared to go deep alone, and this Han cavalry was too blind.

Now Gao Suicheng has 6,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, so why not fear these two or three thousand Han cavalry, besides, there are 1,000 "Xianbei" iron cavalry to help.

"Does the King of the Sun have a plan?"

Gao Suicheng asked the Wuhuan military general who was kneeling on the side.

The Wuhuan military general pointed to a scribe behind him and said to Gao Suicheng: "King, this is my cronies, surnamed Li, famous Han, familiar with military books, the previous siege strategy was from him, and the king can ask him." ”

This scribe known as Li Han was Li Tao.

At that moment, Li Tao got up and bowed his hand to Gao Suicheng and said: "King, this time the Han people raised troops to come, and nine times out of ten they got the news of the civil strife, thinking that the king was still trapped in the civil strife and had no time to take care of other things, so he wanted to profit from it. ”

Gao Suicheng thought about it, what Li Han said, if he really reasoned about it, it was only two days to defeat Gao Suiping, and the domestic city and Xuansu County were far away, and it would take at least three or four days to come and go, and the news was naturally incomprehensible.

"That makes sense!"

Gao Suicheng replied in a deep voice.

Li Han said again: "The so-called knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can win a hundred battles, this Han cavalry has predicted the wrong situation, and it is difficult not to die." ”

"The king can set up an ambush in Xianghu Mountain, five miles away from the domestic city, and catch turtles in an urn, and he can annihilate this Han cavalry in one fell swoop.

"Good!"

Gao Sui was overjoyed, and immediately shouted: "Gao Halberd obeys the order!" ”

Gao Ji hurriedly got up and said, "The last general!" ”

Gao Suicheng said slowly: "Leading four thousand Goguryeo warriors out of the city to meet the enemy is bound to kill all this Han cavalry." ”

"No!"

As soon as the high halberd left on his front foot, the king of the sun got up and said, "Your Majesty, in case of accidents, I am willing to lead a thousand cavalry from my headquarters to help." ”

Gao Sui prejudiced that the king of the sun had asked for the battle from his own high, and it was too late to be happy at the moment, so how could he think about it more, and promised with his mouth: "In this way, there will be the king of the sun." ”

An hour later, two cavalry detachments set out from the inner city.

With the Goguryeo cavalry in front and a thousand Wuhuan cavalry following behind, a massacre was quietly approaching.

Xianghu Mountain.

Gao Ji drank the war horse and was about to give an ambush, when the sound of horses' hooves was heard on the valley road ahead.

"It's coming so fast!"

Gao Ji sighed.

"Gao Halberd, the enemy has entered the valley, just to flank them from both sides, and wipe them out, you kill them from the side of the mountain pass, this king leads the people and horses of the headquarters to detour the enemy's back, so that they have no way to escape!"

The King of the Sun spoke.

Gao Ji didn't have time to think about it, nodded in agreement, and rushed in with men and horses, the Xianghu Valley was about four or five hundred meters wide, and the cavalry charge was completely unaffected.

"Kill!"

In less than a moment, Gao Ji collided head-on with a Han cavalry, led by a military general, holding a long knife, and said majestically: "Who is coming, a certain Guan Hai will not kill the nameless." ”

Gao Ji raised his sword and shouted: "I am Gao Ji, the general of Goguryeo, thief, suffer death!" ”

Admiral Halberd?

Guan Hai laughed and shouted: "In the past, outside the city of Goguryi, there was also an ignorant man, known as the general Gao Zhi, but unfortunately he was cut in half by me. ”

"Big brother! You...... Thief, was the eldest brother killed by you? ”

Gao Halberd was angry from the side of his guts, his eyes were bloodshot, and the hilt of the knife in his hand squeaked.

"Of course! Killing him is like killing a chicken and a dog. ”

Guan Hai sneered.

"Thief, take your life!"

Gao Ji raised his knife and rushed towards Guan Hai.
