The horses roared, and the iron cavalry rampage, and entered the Goguryeo river beach camp, where the cavalry had the advantage over the infantry, and quickly broke the defenses in the Goguryeo camp. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The guards at the head of the city, finding that the camp had been attacked, had already thrown themselves into disarray, unable to organize an effective counterattack, and were submerged by the attacking Sui army on the river beach.

Some of the deer barriers were cleared, the gates of the earthen forts were opened, and the Sui army rushed in, tens of thousands of people killed them, and the Goguryeo army was besieged.

This time, the Goguryeo army, which had more than 20,000 troops, was dispersed, divided into several teams, and was encircled and killed.

"Puff puff—"

There were swords everywhere, blood stains everywhere, and the earthen fort lines and makeshift camps made of sand and wood were like purgatory, and many soldiers fell, gurgling blood, staining the river beach red.

"Ahh

There was also a Sui sergeant who was hit by an arrow in the back, but he was indifferent, holding a horizontal knife, piercing the chest of the Goguryeo soldier on the opposite side, the tip of the knife was picked, the stomach was disemboweled, and the blood was sprinkled all over the ground.

The battle was fierce, with the Sui army gaining the upper hand, and Xue Shixiong leading his troops to press it, and it was like a tide, drowning the Goguryeo army on the river beach.

An hour later, the sound of the battle had subsided, and the bones were everywhere, and the blood flowed into the water.

The river beach pass was snatched down, it was a brilliant paving with blood and life, how cruel!

However, this time compared to last year's battle of the river beach, it was much easier, and it only took half a day to break through the momentum and sweep through, and it did not pay a heavy price.

According to statistics, the casualties were less than 20,000, which was about the same as the number of enemies destroyed.

You must know that last year, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty personally marched, and seven or eight Sui soldiers were buried in the river beach, which was miserable.

This is related to Luo Zhaoyun's well-trained, he has long done a good job in military cooperation and drills, and at the same time, the ordnance is better, the fighting style is flexible and changeable, the soldiers are not tired of deceit, surprise, etc., unlike Emperor Yang of Sui, who has no one in his eyes, despises the Goguryeo army, and has a stiff and old-fashioned fighting style, and disdains to make strange soldiers, so there will be huge casualties.

When the good news came back, the Sui troops on the south bank of Liaoshui all cheered, because this victory improved morale and once again proved the courage of Luo Cheng to lead the army.

"Pass the order, clean up the battlefield, remove obstacles, and pay close attention to the movements of Liaodong City!"

"Yes!"

"General Xue, please take a leading army, push it to the city of Liaodong, put pressure on Goguryeo, beware of the defenders in the city, and attack our camp!"

"Understood." Xue Shixiong is a veteran and quite prestigious, and several of his sons are tiger generals.

At dusk of the same day, Xue Shixiong led his troops to Liaodong City, and the troops came to the city, pinned down the defenders in the city, and confronted each other, so that the Goguryeo army did not dare to go out without authorization.

………

Emperor Yang of Sui was still on the way to the north, he received good news successively, Luo Cheng led the troops to advance, a few days, across the counties of Liaoxi, and there was an urgent report at night, he had already captured the river beach, pointing directly to Liaodong City.

"This Luo Cheng, in only a few days, hit Liaodong City, and it is really the lucky general of the Great Sui!" Emperor Yang of Sui smiled slightly, and was satisfied with his ability to command troops and the quick delivery of good news.

At this time, Yu Wenshu's eyes turned and he arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has a few words, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Emperor Yang of Sui glanced at him and said, "There are no outsiders in the tent, what does Yuwenqing's family have to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Yuwenshu complimented: "The minister thinks that Luo Cheng is like a bamboo, which is naturally a good thing, but it's just ...... Last year, His Majesty drove the expedition in person, and the armies from all walks of life arrived, but they fought hard in Liaoshui, with huge losses, and fought fiercely in Liaodong City for many days, as we all know, now Luo Cheng easily took the river beach and besieged Liaodong City, and the minister was worried that if he easily took Liaodong City, he was afraid that the world would spread some gossip, thinking that I was a great Sui, only Luo Cheng would lead the army to fight, and the other generals were like straw bales. ”

Emperor Yang of Sui heard this, his face sank, and he felt that he had no face, last year he drove his own expedition, and as a result, he suffered heavy losses, suffered setbacks again and again, and finally returned defeated, if it were not for Luo Cheng's break, there might be a loss of 100,000 or 200,000 soldiers and horses.

This is a thorn in his heart, he really wants to drive this expedition in person, win back face, and conquer Goguryeo.

Yuwen said: "Your Majesty, Luo Cheng destroyed Tuyuhun and is in the limelight, if Your Majesty and the generals do not arrive in Liaodong this time, let Luo Cheng lead the troops to conquer Liaodong City and push the army directly to Pyongyang, then everyone in the world, I am afraid that it will be rumored that it is Luo Cheng's Goguryeo, which has nothing to do with us, but as everyone knows, he can march so smoothly this time, it is entirely because of last year's combat experience, and he can succeed if he is someone else, but he has reaped a great benefit!" ”

Emperor Yang of Sui has already been moved, and he doesn't want Luo Cheng to make another great military exploit and take away the aura of his personal expedition, otherwise, there will be no point in personally going on a northern expedition.

This kind of great undertaking is more perfect if it is done by yourself.

After pondering for a moment, Emperor Yang of Sui's face was a little cold, and said to Su Wei: "Draft edict, order Luo Cheng to stand still outside Liaodong City, not to attack Liaodong City, and wait for me to come in person, and then take military action, otherwise, it will be dealt with by disobeying military orders." ”

Su Wei was inconvenient to say more, so he surrendered his hand and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Yuwen Shu bowed and retreated, snorting coldly in his heart, Luo Cheng, Luo Cheng, do you still want to make great achievements, it's not that easy. (To be continued.) )
