Chapter 400: Bluffing

Under the city of Pyongyang, a truce began, and without the Sui army attacking the city, it suddenly became very peaceful, which was very different from the scene of the previous battles and thousands of troops and horses. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

The Goguryeo soldiers at the head of the city were all stunned, poking their heads out in rows and looking out, if it was in the past few days, as long as they appeared, they would be easily shot, piercing their heads, throats, and chests, and dying, but now they have nothing to do, and they are extremely calm.

The defenders watched the camp outside the city, the smoke rising, the sound of horses' hooves vibrating back and forth, the continuous movement of people leaving the camp and entering the camp, the sound of training and formation, seemed to be resting.

Yizhi Wende, Gao Hong, Yuan Gaiye and others gathered on the city tower with the generals, and when they saw the situation of the Sui army, they were suspicious.

Gao Hong said: "It's been three days, and the Sui army hasn't attacked the city, and I don't know what I'm doing?" ”

Yizhi Wende analyzed: "It seems that he is resting and preparing to brew a bigger offensive!" ”

Yuan Gaiye said: "Yes, these days, the Sui army has suffered a lot of casualties, and it is possible to rest for a while, maybe we will besiege the city, compare with us for food and grass materials, if we besiege the city for two or three years, we will starve to death in the city!" ”

"The Sui army is outnumbered, and they take turns to attack, and our army can't resist for long, do they want to fight psychological warfare, deliberately not attack, and make us cowardly?"

"It's not unreasonable, it may also tempt us to sneak out of the city and attack!"

Yizhi Wende said to a deputy general beside him: "Is the number of cooking smoke in the Sui army camp complete?" ”

Deputy General Hu Donghai replied: "There is no difference from before, there is still so many pots and stoves, and there seems to be no significant reduction." ”

Yizhi Wende nodded and said, "This shows that the number of the Sui army has not changed much, and it will not be easy to retreat." ”

Yuan Gaiye sighed: "The Sui army is so aggressive, how can it retreat, impossible, the last time the Sui army was not well prepared, too light on the enemy, the right time and place are on our side, winter is coming, the Sui army does not have enough cotton clothes and quilts and other materials, it will be forced to withdraw, this time, after the beginning of spring, it will begin to conquer Liaodong, it can be seen that the Sui army is well prepared, not to break the city, will not be good at resting!" ”

A strategist named Gao Buyi said: "The descendants of the Gao clan of Northern Qi have gathered some men and horses in western Liaoning and northern Yan County, trained many warriors, and prepared for an uprising. ”

At this moment, a harrier eagle flew into the city, and soon, an eagle scout ran over and shouted, "Report, there is an urgent secret letter to be presented to General Otoji." ”

A guard stepped forward, took a secret letter of note, and handed it to Yizhi Wende, who took it, was stunned at first, and then overjoyed, and couldn't help laughing: "The rear of the Sui State has been in chaos, Yang Su's son Yang Xuan has rebelled, and has attached to many powerful children, and there are people along the way to join the army, rapidly developing more than 100,000 people, and is besieging the eastern capital Luoyang City, the letter also said that the main force of the Sui army has withdrawn to Liaodong City, leaving only Luo Zhaoyun to lead the troops to break off. ”

After all, Gao Hong is a member of the royal family, and his interests have the greatest impact, and after hearing this, he suddenly said excitedly: "What, such a change has happened in the rear of the Sui Kingdom?" Great, God really blessed me Goguryeo, and I didn't dare to die like this. ”

"Yes, this is great news, and my Goguryeo has been saved again."

Yuan Gaiye suddenly realized that something was wrong, and said: "Hey, no, the main force of the Sui army has been withdrawn, but the camp outside the city doesn't look like it, as usual, even the pot stove and the momentum of the training have not decreased, it is not like it at all, will there be fraud?" ”

"Could it be that the information is fake, the information was intercepted, and then the new secret letter was replaced?" Some people suspect that there may be something wrong with the harrier eagle, and they can't just trust a livestock and ignore what they see in front of them, after all, seeing is believing, and hearing is false.

"Yes, this may be a plan of the Sui army, tricking us out of the city, the harrier eagle may have been put in by the enemy, maybe, or rather, there is a gap in the scout camp and the intelligence has been replaced, maybe!"

Yizhi Wende's expression was solemn, although he knew that this news was too important and too beneficial to his side, but he didn't blindly trust, and gave the order: "Come on, quickly go and bring a few scouts on duty in the scout battalion, and also, bring all the commanders and captains of the scout battalion, interrogate and test them separately, and ensure that the news is not fake!" ”

Half an hour later, the military attachΓ©s and scouts on duty in the scout camp today were questioned at various levels and confirmed that each of them had touched the secret letter, and the handwriting of the secret letter, all kinds of secret notes, etc., had not been tampered with, which was reassuring.

Moreover, during this time, there were carrier pigeons flying into the city, which came from the Liaodong area, and the intelligence was sent after discovering that the Sui army was constantly pouring into the city and finding out the accurate news.

Although the distance is close to Liaodong and far from the Central Plains, the Harrier Eagle is fast, and it is released many days earlier, so they all arrive on this day.

"It seems that the Sui army has really retreated." Echiwende was convinced.

Gao Hong said: "However, the big camp outside the city, the Sui army really doesn't seem to have been sharply reduced, how can it be explained?" ”

"Alas, I have to say, this Luo Zhaoyun is simply a natural general, and he is good at scheming and strategy, he has long expected our psychology, so, after the soldiers are dispersed, deliberately bluff, those pots and stoves, maybe not cooking, but also boiling water, in and out of the cavalry, are all in the tricks, military drills, thousands of people can make the effect, I have led the army for more than ten years, or the first time to meet such an opponent, I heard, he is not very old, only in his early twenties, Sui has this genius, if it is used well, Why do you need a million soldiers to crusade, make a big fuss. Yizhi Wende spoke highly of Luo Zhaoyun at this time, and after everyone heard it, they all suddenly realized that they had to admire it.

Gao Buyi was also taken aback, nodded, his expression was complicated, he was ordered by Gao Yuanjian, the grandson of Gao Changgong, the king of Lanling, to assist Goguryeo in defending the city, but he learned from Gao Yufei and others that some things about this Luo Zhaoyun are indeed civil and military all-rounders, and even Gao Yuanjian wants to see this Luo Zhaoyun, wants to talk to him about family affairs, and match his cousin Yufei Xu to him, so that Luo Zhaoyun can be pulled into the Gao camp and forced to rebel.

Yuan Gaiye analyzed: "General Yizhi, how should we act, this time we must not let go of this Luo Zhaoyun, look at the scale of the city, add it up everywhere, there are more than 100,000 people, as long as there is a charge, even if they can block it once or twice, but after all, it is the Sui army after the break, and the psychology must also want to flee for their lives, and they will definitely retreat soon, we can intercept them all!" ”

Yizhi Wende nodded and said: "Without further ado, since we know Luo Zhaoyun's trick, it will be easy to break the plan, if we sneak attack at night, maybe we have to go to the road, then attack during the day, their forces are scattered in four battalions, and the number is not much, as long as we concentrate our superior forces and impact a camp, we can immediately test the authenticity, and after breaking up a battalion, we will immediately return to the city for reorganization, the Sui army knows that the plan has been discovered, and it will definitely retreat, at that time, it is a good time for us to chase and kill." ”
