Chapter 288: The City is Broken

Yang Shouchen stood on the city tower and looked at Li Jing's army opposite, as well as the routed army that kept coming, and already knew that the new city was finished!

But Yang Shouchen knew that he couldn't surrender, so he glanced at the surrounding sergeants, and shouted: "Everyone, the new city has been broken, the king is not waiting for me, I, Yang Shouchen, will never be a person who surrenders, if anyone wants to surrender, I Yang Shouchen will never stop me, if you are willing to follow me, rush out of the city to fight a way out!" ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked down the city wall, the surrounding soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, just now some soldiers were still very worried, but at this time, hearing Yang Shouchen's words, many people thought about it for a while, and finally decided to follow Yang Shouchen out together.

Outside the city, Li Jing looked at the gate of Xicheng, thought for a while, and decided to persuade him to surrender, after all, the emperor was a cautious eye, and he did not want the soldiers to pay too many casualties, and now the other three gates have already opened the city and surrendered.

"Yang Shouchen, if you don't surrender quickly, I will explain the situation to Your Majesty and spare you from dying!"

When Li Jing said this, he was not prepared to let Yang Shouchen surrender, this old guy is very bad, you let people surrender, at least be sincere and say good things, but look at what Li Jing is doing, spare you from dying...... Directly blocked the way for Yang Shouchen to surrender!

I Yang Shouchen don't want to lose face?

Sure enough, hearing Li Jing's words, Yang Shouchen glanced back at the high-spirited Li Jing and shouted: "Li Jing old thief, you occupy our country's land and kill my people, I, Yang Shouchen, will never surrender!"

After finishing speaking, he yelled at the soldiers beside him: "Brothers, follow me to kill the Tang people!" ”

The main general was humiliated, and the soldiers who were still a little shaken were immediately full of anger, holding weapons, and following behind Yang Shouchen with red eyes, ready to go with Yang Shouchen to find the soldiers of the Yutang Empire desperately!

"Kill the Tang people!"

"Kill the Tang people!"

A group of people shouted and rushed downstairs, Yang Shouchen held a big knife in his hand, stepped on the horse and shouted: "Open the city gate!" ”

After finishing speaking, a few soldiers turned the winch vigorously, the gate of the new city slowly opened, Yang Shouchen rode a horse, and slowly walked out of the city, and the rest of the soldiers followed behind Yang Shouchen.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Yang Shouchen roared, pinched the horse's belly hard, and then rushed towards Li Jing's army.

Immediately, a military general in Li Jing's army slowly walked out of the formation, holding a huge copper hammer in his hand, looking at Yang Shouchen who rushed over, Hu Che'er slowly raised his hammer.

"Kill!"

Yang Shouchen and Hu Che'er only collided for about ten rounds, and Yang Shouchen slowly fell from his horse and died under Hu Che'er's sledgehammer.

"Those who descend will not be killed!"

"Those who descend will not be killed!"

With the death of Yang Shouchen, Hu Che'er roared in the army, and the Goguryeo soldiers saw that their generals were killed, and some of the soldiers who were not very high in fighting spirit directly dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground to surrender.

Li Jing looked at the patches of surrendered soldiers, and knew in his heart that the overall situation had been decided, and the Chinese army began to move.

The new city was taken down, the whole process can be said to be very smooth, it took less than three hours, the soldiers of the Yu Tang Empire cleared the new city, and Yu Zhiqian sat in the general's mansion in the city.

I originally thought that I could experience exotic customs in the new city, but here, what Yu Zhiqian saw and came into contact with was not much different from that in Chang'an City, and even some people in the new city were able to speak some Central Plains dialect, of course, most of the words Yu Zhiqian still couldn't understand.

Now the people of Xincheng are full of awe of the Yutang Empire's army, and it is already rumored among the people that the commander of the Yutang Empire invited the gods to blow up the city wall, which made the Yutang Empire soldiers easily enter the Xincheng.

The story spreads with nose and eyes, if someone doesn't believe it, point directly to the city wall in the distance, you don't believe it, you can go to the city wall to take a look, the city wall has been blown up like that, it's not made by the gods, is it a person?

If there are still bar spirits who say that they dare not go out, someone will use thunder to prove everything, and the sudden thunder can't deceive people, right?

Hearing what this group of people said had noses and eyes, many people finally believed it, especially after clearing out the remnants of the enemy, after they could come out and walk around, this group of people saw the east city wall, and were so frightened that they immediately knelt on the ground, calling it a miracle.

In the general's mansion, Yu Zhiqian was on top, drinking tea, either sencha or tea brewed with water, after Yu Zhiqian's unsparing promotion, now this way of drinking tea has become popular within the Yutang Empire, and the people have accepted this way of drinking tea.

Of course, the officials are still willing to drink their own traditional sencha by themselves, and are not willing to go along with Yu Zhiqian, but they have begun to show influence among the younger generation, and Yu Zhiqian believes that when the old man is dead, there will be no sencha again!

Yu Zhiqian has also been a little fed up with sencha over the years, it's too hard to drink, the so-called sencha is to fry the tea leaves with ghee together, then add water, put in various spices, and finally mix a thing, that taste, spicier than snail noodles.

"The new city has been captured, thanks to your great help!"

Yu Zhiqian squinted his eyes and glanced at the generals below, the young generals were all very excited, while the veteran generals looked depressed, especially Cheng Yanjin, didn't he patrol all night last night, and when he got up at noon today, the city was already broken?

Then what is the matter with me Cheng Biting Jin? I'm Cheng Biting Jin, but I'm ten thousand enemies, and I haven't had time to fight it, so it's broken?

In addition to Cheng Biting Jin, an old horseman who has no heart and lungs, Niu Jinda, Wei Chigong, Li Jing and others have seen another situation, the current way of war seems to be developing in an uncontrollable way, and there are fewer and fewer places for them to play.

Among them, Li Jing and others felt more deeply, in the past, they needed to fight wits and courage with the defenders when attacking the city, but now? You don't need to worry about the defenders, just find a way to blow up the city wall.

And this time only ordinary explosives were used, and the hot air balloon unit had not yet appeared, thinking of this, Li Jing even had the idea of retiring.

After Yu Zhiqian glanced at it, he had a rough idea in his heart: "Generals, report the results of the battle!" ”

"Emperor Taishang, the North Gate has collected 8,000 troops and killed more than 300 enemies!"

"The Emperor's ,......"

There are more than 50,000 defenders, and more than 49,000 people can be counted, and some people are estimated to take off their clothes and hide in their homes in the city, or they are dead and surrounded on all sides, and it is almost impossible to escape from the new city.

"Let's talk about the next step, General Li!"

After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian looked at Li Jing, and Li Jing also reacted from his contemplation to look at Yu Zhiqian: "Emperor Taishang, the old minister thinks that now he should take advantage of the victory to pursue, and take advantage of the fact that the rest of the cities of Goguryeo do not know that the new city has been breached, and take it by surprise and quickly!" ”

Yu Zhiqian nodded: "Do you need to disguise yourself as an enemy to open the city gate?" ”

Li Jing nodded: "The new city is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the enemy definitely didn't expect our army to be able to break through the new city so quickly, only a team of five hundred people is needed, on the pretext of urging food, the city gate is opened by fraud, and the army behind him is ambushed, and as soon as the city gate is opened, it can be taken directly by attacking!" ”

Yu Zhiqian's eyes lit up after hearing this, Li Jing is still Li Jing, he thinks more than himself, he just thinks that he will directly change into Goguryeo's clothes to deceive the city gate, but Li Jing has thought of the reason.

"Xincheng doesn't seem to be short of food!"

Yu Zhiqian thought for a long time and then slowly spoke, Li Jing smiled slightly at this time: "The Emperor doesn't need to worry, we just need to use the big seal of Quangai Suwen to write a letter, and besides, the granary of Xincheng was set on fire by my secret agent, in this case, even if you don't believe it, you won't have any suspicion!" ”

"High!"

Yu Zhiqian really admired Li Jing, this guy was really good at using soldiers, and he thought of a way in such a short time, Yu Zhiqian gave Li Jing a thumbs up, and after Li Jing saw it, he smiled and didn't continue to speak.

However, Li Jing's heart is a lot more comfortable, no matter how powerful the weapon is, it still depends on the person, otherwise it will be useless.

Seeing that Li Jing was so capable, Yu Zhiqian was relieved, and directly handed over the matter to Li Jing, and went to make up for sleep by himself, Yu Zhiqian actually didn't sleep well last night, and had been worrying about Xu Rong and Zhang Liao, and was afraid that these two people had not dealt with the loss well, and now they can finally put their minds at ease.

When Yu Zhiqian was sleeping, Li Jing began to quickly arrange the task, the 150,000 army was divided into 11 parts, the 50,000 army remained in Xincheng as the Chinese army, and the remaining 100,000 troops were 10,000 people, divided into ten parts, and after choosing their own goals, they began to change their clothes, and took off the clothes of the surrendered soldiers of Goguryeo and put them on their bodies.

A total of more than 30,000 Goguryeo soldiers surrendered, and only then did they get together a few thousand pieces of suitable clothes, there was no way, the difference in size was a bit big, and the Goguryeo soldiers were not as tall as the soldiers of Dongying.

Xincheng is in the border area of Goguryeo and Yutang Empire, only about ten miles away from the border, Goguryeo is not a small country, and of course it is not as big as the shameless country in later generations.

The first city you encounter further east from the new city is called Goguryeo Fortress, which is about 100 miles away from the new city, and is named because of the high mountains on both sides, and you can enter the hinterland of Goguryeo, which is also the most elite area of Goguryeo.

Gaoshan City is also under martial law now, after all, the army of the Yutang Empire is already under the new city, and the sun has just set in Gaoshan City, so the city gate is directly closed, and there are soldiers patrolling the city tower constantly patrolling back and forth.

"Damn the weather, you said that Yu Tang people are not good at home, what are you going to do to beat us!"

The soldiers patrolling the city complained, after all, according to the normal arrangement, he should be sleeping at home now, but now he has to come out to patrol the city, patrol the city at night, blowing a cold wind, no one is comfortable!

"Don't complain, we're just patrolling the city, look at those guys in the new city, maybe they've already fought with the people of the Yutang Empire!"

"Did you say you could fight it?"

"I don't know, but Izumi Gai Suwen is very strong!"

After the soldier said a word, he shrunk back and stopped talking.

The patrol soldiers were patrolling silently, and at this time there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the patrol soldiers immediately reacted, and immediately looked outside the city, only to see a small group of cavalry outside the city rushing over quickly.

Leading the way was a small colonel, shouting at the defenders on the city walls: "Open the gates!" ”

When the defenders saw this, they immediately responded: "Who are you?" ”

"I am the defender of the new city, and General Quangai Suwen asked us to urge food!"

After finishing speaking, hearing this, the soldier was stunned for a moment: "Xincheng urging food? We weren't notified! ”

"Quickly report the order of Li County and delay the military aircraft, then you are asking!"

The system implemented by Goguryeo is very similar to that of the Yutang Empire, but due to the problem of land area, there are no provinces, only prefectures and counties, and Gaoshan City is a county, and the county commander is the biggest official!

"Wait a minute, let's go and inform the city lord!"

The defender was taken aback, and immediately went to inform the defender first, and the defender frowned when he heard it, and climbed up the city wall: "You are here to urge food?" Why haven't we been notified? ”

"The granary of the new city was burned by the careful work of the Yu Tang people, and the grain and grass in the city were only enough for one month, so we were sent to urge the grain, you quickly open the city gate!"

The guard frowned, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of anything wrong, and held the torch and said, "Who are you?" ”

"I am General Li Tong's subordinate General Golden Tiger!"

When he finishes speaking, he holds the torch in front of him.

Jin Hu is indeed a general of Goguryeo, and he is also the defender under Li Tong's account, Li Tong is the guard of the North Gate, and he has surrendered, and Jin Hu is a guy whose family is in the new city, so Li Jing dared to use this person to blow up the city gate, if Jin Hu turned against the water, he would directly kill the whole family.

Jin Hu is also a very disgraced person, after seeing that the new city was broken, he knew that Goguryeo could not block the troops of the Yutang Empire, so he surrendered directly, and also agreed to open the city gate.

Since you have surrendered, if you want to mix better in the Yutang Empire in the future, you have to take credit, and this kind of thing is a huge credit.

After the guard saw the golden tiger, he carefully identified it, and determined that it was the golden tiger, almost he had seen it, but he was not familiar with it, but the doubts in his heart disappeared, and he thought for a while: "At this time, it is important, I don't know if the general has a token?" ”

"This is General Su Wen's handwritten letter, sent to the county order, you send it quickly!"

After finishing speaking, he held up a letter high, and when the guard heard it, he immediately put the hanging basket down, and then quickly sent someone to send the letter to the county order, and he stood on the city wall, looked at the golden tiger, and hugged his fists.

"General Jin, this is an extraordinary time, please forgive me, after entering the city, I must personally set up a wine to apologize!"

Jin Hu waved his hand: "I don't blame you for this, Jin can understand, I won't drink the wine, the big war is coming, Jin and the others will also rush back to the new city, just prepare more food for my brothers!" ”

"Definitely, definitely!"
