Chapter 338: The Game (2)
The refugees of Baekje entered the territory of Goguryeo, and continued to pour into the city of Pyongyong from the rear, and the whole city of Pyongyang was very busy, and the troops in their hands were increased, and Yuan Gai Suwen lay on the couch and was excited, "God help me." ”
Xie Baliang's face was both happy and worried, and the growing strength of the army meant that Pingyao City was a behemoth, with so many mouths to eat, food and grass were tight, and the pressure was also very great.
At night, the city of Liaodong was filled with the smell of blood, and tonight the dark clouds obscured the moonlight.
Su Dingfang arranged for the army to evacuate Liaodong City, and the only dozen or so war horses in his hand were not ridden by himself.
"General, we can't ride war horses!" Several wounded soldiers spoke, refusing again and again.
"Let you ride it, don't grind it for me!" Cheng Chu scolded silently, "Just a few of you guys are the most seriously injured, if you don't want to ride a horse, get me better quickly." ”
"Yes!" Several wounded soldiers replied loudly.
Li Tai watched the army finish preparing and shouted, "The whole army withdraws"
Su Dingfang took the torches of several soldiers, "Don't bring a single torch, we will go out of the city in the dark, and we can't let the Goguryeo people find out." ”
The 30,000-strong army left Liaodong City on foot, lurking in the night and marching quietly, all the way to the mountains outside Liaodong City, everyone lurked on the main road between Liaodong City and Pingyao to prepare to deal with the other party's re-incoming army, waiting for dawn, a few fireflies flew in the night.
According to Su Dingfang's idea, he wanted to intercept and kill Goguryeo's army here.
In the night, Yang Sheng took a thousand soldiers and horses, Gu Qing looked at these members of the Qing Gang and instructed, "You have to be careful, come back as soon as you find the other party's grain and grass and burn it." ”
Yang Sheng nodded solemnly, "Don't worry." ”
Watching Yang Sheng leave with the soldiers and horses, Gu Qing looked at the hazy night.
"Can they?" Li Tai said worriedly.
"This typhoon is so big." Gu Qing said patiently, "Look at the end of Liaodong City that has been flooded, this is a relatively high place in Goguryeo, and the terrain in Silla and Baekje is even lower, so the situation there must be more serious." ”
"You mean that Goguryeo's grain and grass are about to run out."
Gu Qing nodded.
Yang Sheng led more than 1,000 people on a night march for more than three hours before he came to the vicinity of Pyongyang City.
"Yang Tou'er, there are enough of them."
Yang Sheng looked around with a solemn face, "Let's go to their rear and have a look." ”
The group looked around the rear again and looked at the back of Pyongyang City, where many refugees were entering, Yang Sheng whispered, "It looks like something is really wrong in the rear of Goguryeo, and this gale has brought a lot of trouble to Goguryeo." ”
"Let's get in." As he spoke, Yang Sheng took off the armor on his body.
"Don't move!"
Suddenly there was a sound of voice behind him, Yang Sheng immediately raised his knife and looked at the back, and the figures of women came from behind, and now Yang Sheng saw the other party's people clearly, "Red Whisk Girl?" ”
"It's me!" The red-whisked woman was dressed in men's clothes, and her long hair was tied into a neat ponytail.
"What are you going to do?" Yang Sheng looked at each other strangely.
"What you thought of, I also thought of, and Xie Baliang also thought of it." The red-whisked girl whispered: "We sent in several waves of people and didn't come out, the other party is on guard, and it seems that they have failed." ”
Listening to the words of the Red Whisk Girl, Yang Sheng's eyes stared at the brightly lit Pingyao City, and he saw several soldiers walking outside the Pingyao City from a distance to relieve him, "Do you have anyone who can speak Goguryeo?" ”
"Yes!" The red-whisked girl nodded.
Yang Sheng gave a look to a few people behind him, and more than a dozen people walked out of the team, knocking silently close to each other, as if they had acted hundreds of times, several people immediately stepped forward to cover each other's mouths, knocked people unconscious, and dragged them away.
Captured a few soldiers, Yang Sheng took these guys away, waved his slap to wake them up, and watched them wake up in confusion, several Goguryeo people stared at strangers with wide eyes, and in a panic, they wanted to escape A few knives were put on their necks.
"Ask him where the grain and grass in the city are placed."
A man came out from behind the red-whisked woman and stepped forward to question each other in Goguryeo.
Seeing that they refused to speak, Yang Sheng stabbed the other party's thigh with a fierce eye, "Say!" ”
Only then did a few people speak, and the woman with the red whisk translated: "They put all the grain and grass under the city of Liaodong, and they are heavily guarded, so they can't get in!" It's just to prevent us from burning the grain and grass, but there will be the rest of the grain and grass from the rear. ”
Yang Sheng nodded, "You asked him what direction the grain and grass were transported from." ”
The other party said hesitantly.
The woman of the red whisk translated again, "In the direction of Baekje, now Baekje is flooded, but Baekje still has some remaining grain and grass. ”
"Let's go! Robbed them! Yang Sheng whispered.
At dawn on the second day, Pingyao City once again walked out of 50,000 soldiers and horses to Liaodong City to besiege the city, several scouts put their ears on the ground and heard the sound of marching, and immediately ran back to Su Dingfang and said, "General, there is a large army coming from the other side, listen to the movement of about 50,000 soldiers and horses." ”
"Good!" Cheng Chumo ordered, "Arrange the tripping horses!" ”
Gu Qing also said to Li Tai, "Prepare your bow and arrows, and we will withdraw immediately after the ambush!" ”
Li Tai nodded and commanded the soldiers behind him.
When this Goguryeo army came closer, the stumbling horse rope knocked down the horses of the front army, the bows and arrows on both sides of the road responded to the sound and shot at each other, knowing that the Goguryeo people who were in ambush were panicked and tired, when the bow and arrow ended, the Goguryeo army was still waiting for the attack of the ambush, the smoke on both sides of the road floated, the Goguryeo people became more and more nervous, nervous and guarded around, when the wind blew away the smoke and looked up again, there was no one on both sides of the road, only the footprints of the people have dispersed.
The whole Goguryeo army is not up to the top.
At the same time, on the other side of the shouting, Yang Sheng and the Red Whisk Girl also moved, robbing a batch of grain and grass.
Kicking away the corpse at his feet, the red whisk woman's knife was full of blood, "I didn't expect them to have so many people to handle the grain and grass, but fortunately, there are your smoke bombs." ”
"It was made by Gu Qing." Yang Sheng looked at this batch of grain and grass, "It just so happens that we are also short of grain and grass, but we can cope with it for a while." ”
"This Gu Qing can always create these strange things." The red-whisked woman looked at a smoke bomb, "Sometimes I think that the firearms made by Gu Qing are very lethal, and sometimes I feel that they hurt the heavens and the peace, when you attacked Liaodong, I have been watching those three big things, and as soon as they shot, hundreds of lives were lost." ”
"It's like that on the battlefield." Yang Sheng let his subordinates bring grain and grass, "When I was in Songzhou, it wasn't so cruel, the most dangerous time was in Yanmen Pass, hundreds of thousands of Turks pressed in, the corpses of that battle were spread all over Yanmen Pass, under the effect of firearms, it was not a war but more like a massacre, it was all for survival, and everyone was forced." ”
