When the soldiers under Yuangai Suwen advanced in formation, what they saw was the Tang army with iron armor and heavy shields, neatly arranged, and in front of them were the corpses of Goguryeo soldiers piled up several layers high.

Due to the cover of the woods, Yuangai Suwen didn't know how many Tang troops there were in this forest, anyway, it couldn't be only three or four thousand, which made him rashly enter the army.

"Stop moving forward and be prepared."

It was only half an hour before dawn, and Yuan Gai Suwen didn't believe that when the time came, these Tang troops would be able to face the encirclement and suppression of their hundreds of thousands of troops.

It's a pity that Zhang Gongjin in the depths of the forest at this time had already expected his mentality, in fact, most of the Tang troops in the back had begun to unload their armor and retreat to the road that had been explored in the forest before, and those war horses were just used to carry their heavy shields and heavy armor to walk through the woods, not to mention half an hour, that is, a quarter of an hour, they could make the Goguryeo people not even see their backs.

Moreover, if Yuangai Suwen dared to pursue, the Lingnan Army in charge of the broken rear would let them understand the truth of 'Feng Lin Mo entered'. In the rugged mountainous terrain where they could not form a formation, they only needed a small number of people, armed with repeating crossbows, to fight and retreat along the way, and the Goguryeo soldiers who could not charge on a large scale could only end up with corpses left behind.

The results of this night attack are very good, there should be more than 40,000 enemies killed, most of them are elite main forces, and the most important thing is that this makes it impossible for the Yuangai Suwen army to rest and recover, and after dawn, their combat effectiveness will inevitably decline.

Moreover, the Tang army is not a guy, just run away, after a short rest, they will launch an attack on the 150,000 army that escorted the grain and grass to evacuate first yesterday, no matter how much your main army is, no matter how strong it is, without grain and grass, the morale of the officers and men of the whole army will also drop to the freezing point.

Less than 25,000 people, against 150,000, although it is not the main force of Goguryeo's trump card, but it is also a tough battle, Zhang Gongjin's department, which has already fought once, needs to have enough rest before it can act again, at this time, the Tang Army's equipment supply advantage has played a role, everyone has a sleeping bag, find a flat ground to sleep, there is no need to make a fire to cook, all kinds of canned meat, canned fruit, and all kinds of baked biscuits, just wipe your mouth after eating and drinking.

No one could have imagined that they would be able to eat and drink in half an hour and sleep peacefully.

On the other hand, the Goguryeo army had to make a fire and cook for most of the hour, and they ate coarse grains with no nutritional value, and by the time they finished packing up their cooking utensils and went to rest, an hour had already passed.

At dawn of the day, when Yuangai Suwen found that there was no one in the forest, he gave up the idea of pursuit, and began to order the army to make a fire to rebel, preparing to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Tang army after eating and drinking.

On the side of the Tang army, they finished breakfast early, and in the open space in front of the camp, the grain trucks that had been emptied together were connected with iron buckles to form a wall of iron and wood more than one zhang high.

"Your Majesty, after the distribution of 20,000 soldiers and horses, there will be a shortage of manpower on the side of our army's chariot control, and I am afraid that the wounded soldiers will also participate in the battle."

After making a complete arrangement of formations, Li Jing reported to Li Shimin.

There are no wounded soldiers in the Tang army camp now, plus the 5,000 people brought by Cheng Chumo, it is less than 30,000, and a large part of these people have to be arranged behind the car formation, and even many wrestlers who originally controlled catapults and ballistas have to be transferred to the side of the car formation to help.

Then, to control thousands of catapults and ballistas, there will be a large shortage of personnel, because, in the case of less to more, the use rate of these weapons of war will definitely be very high, in addition to the main controller responsible for control, just loading stone bullets, transporting arrows and supplies, it takes more than 10,000 people to keep so many chariots running.

For example, bed crossbow arrows, a person can take two arrows at most, a box of arrows, two people are difficult to move, if it is not a wrestler, it usually takes four ordinary people.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, let us help! It was Yuangai Suwen who killed us, and I want to take revenge······"

When Li Jing was reporting to Li Shimin, Li Shimin was checking the dining situation of the Goguryeo people, the autumn night was already very cold, if there was any frostbite and could not fill their stomachs in time, many of them might get sick, and he didn't want more people to become a burden to the Tang army.

But he didn't expect that his conversation with Li Jing would be listened to by some of the Goguryeo people who knew Chinese, and moreover, in some local dialects, it was translated to everyone.

Hearing the Goguryeo accent of "His Majesty the Emperor", Li Shimin was inexplicably moved, which made him suddenly think of the letter sent by Sun Xiangfu that he saw at breakfast today, and he reminded Li Shimin again to deal with the war cautiously and carefully handle the relationship with the people of Goguryeo.

"Your Majesty, the hearts of the people of Goguryeo are available, and the ministers can arrange for the young and strong among them to do what they can."

"In this way, there will be an arrangement for Lao and Li to be deployed."

Soon, the Goguryeo people who had eaten a full meal were dispatched by Li Jing, and because they were protected by the Tang army, many of them were not injured, and there was no problem at all in doing the work of moving, lifting, and delivering.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Goguryeo army did not come, Li Jing assigned positions to each of them, and practiced two or three times, they only need to be responsible for the transmission of machinery, and they can assist more than 4,000 operators to operate more than 4,000 chariots.

After the sun shone high, the fire that burned all night in the old land of Yanjin City gradually began to extinguish, the ancient buildings were not complicated, most of them were some one-story low houses, and the building materials were just ordinary wood, and after burning, it became a pile of black ash, and in the afternoon, there were not many places where there was still smoke, and at this time, the army of Yuangai Suwen also came in array.

It was uncomfortable to eat soot, and when his army had crossed the scorched earth and saw a white skeleton, morale had obviously declined.

This fire only burned more than 4,000 Tang troops, but burned nearly 100,000 living beings in Goguryeo, how many of them were their comrades-in-arms, brothers of the same clan, it is impossible to calculate clearly, however, they know that these people could not have died.

Seeing the array of cars lined up like a city wall, not only those soldiers, but also Yuangai Suwen, also stood on the spot, the Tang army gave him too many surprises, which was not comparable to the original Sui Dynasty at all.

Before he fought, Yuan Gai Suwen was already timid, this was not the first time he was timid, when he met the fleet of Zhao Long and the Lingnan Navy at sea, he appeared once, and later, he insisted on fighting, and the result was that he became a prisoner of the Tang Army.

This time, he led an army almost five times the number of the Tang army, and when he stood in front of the Tang army, he was actually timid again, but he still decided to fight hard, because he always had a glimmer of hope for victory, after all, among his more than 200,000 troops, tens of thousands were cavalry, and if he didn't care about the impact of the damage, he would definitely hit the Tang army hard.

"Goguryeo soldiers, if you win this battle, we will be the overlord of the entire East, and we will never be threatened from the outside again, use the strongest strength in your body, wave your sword, kill them all, and welcome the glorious moment of Goguryeo······"

When Yuangai Suwen boosted the morale of his subordinates, the Tang army camp was silent, their morale did not need to be encouraged at all, the person in charge of controlling the chariot only needed to focus on the strike position, and the spearmen who were responsible for preparing to resist the impact of the Goguryeo soldiers in the carriage only needed to adjust the gun barrel to the most suitable position, and when the Goguryeo army approached, they could launch it or stab it out.

They didn't have to worry about the firmness of the carriage at all, and under the steel wheels, they had already laid nail piles, which were the tallest horses, and they only produced some slight shaking when they hit the wall with all their might, which is said to be deliberately used to absorb shocks.

Of course, in addition to these advantages in equipment, the reason why they have such strong self-confidence is because of their past achievements, since the Great Army Crusade, there is no city that they cannot break, and the enemy army that cannot be defeated.

Therefore, in their eyes, Yuan Gai Suwen is just a clown who jumps off the beam, and his role is at most to be able to add a touch of color to everyone's military merit book.

The rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the battle of twenty-five against fifty-thousand was about to begin, and at the same time, on a mountain road thirty miles away, another war had just ended.

After the night attack, after a while, and rested for two or three hours, Zhang Gongjin's army, easily caught up with Yuangai Suwen's grain and grass baggage brigade at noon, in their opinion, the Goguryeo army that would waste more than an hour to eat a meal was simply inferior, and after they woke up, they just came ten kilometers off-road, and easily caught up with them.

You know, this is the daily subject of the Tang Army's usual training, after ten kilometers of cross-country, it is fighting, equipment training, of course, Zhang Gongjin did not rush to attack them, but the mountain and forest paths, directly went around to the front of their team, and walked nearly three kilometers before everyone ate and rested, waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

He had already estimated the time, with the slow marching speed of the Goguryeo army, it would take at least half an hour to arrive here, and at that time, their afternoon meal was almost there, and when they settled the afternoon meal, they just launched a surprise attack on them, which was not a little difficult for the Tang army, which dared to rush directly into their brigade to rob people.

Moreover, there is no difficult thing, not only happened in his place, hundreds of miles away under the city of Liaodong, a magical scene appeared, the Tang army seemed to have completely mastered the defensive routine of the generals defending the city, and easily attacked this seemingly unbreakable city, and, quickly the head of the city to gain a firm foothold, so that a steady stream of Tang army ironclad soldiers landed in the city, half an hour later, a city gate was opened, tens of thousands of troops of the Tang army entered the city, and hundreds of thousands of defenders started a white-knuckle battle, not long after, the war ended, Liaodong City was occupied by the Tang army, Nearly 100,000 people in Goguryeo were captured.

If you want to say why Hou Junji captured Liaodong City so easily, it can only be said that he was lucky, he just received a folk artist who can read Goguryeo lips here, and the Goguryeo general who was in charge of defending the city set his general platform on the tall wall of Liaodong City.

This folk artist, directly using a telescope and reading his lips, let Hou Junji fully know the defensive strategy of Liaodong City, and under such a powerful equipment gap, he has a first-hand intelligence, so it's no wonder that he can't beat it.
