Before dark, a huge pit was dug in the low-lying area outside the city, and more than 2,600 Goguryeo troops were driven into the pit and shot.

After dawn, the pit was buried, a low-lying land was still low-lying, but a new soil appeared, and although the people inside and outside Xiangping City found the difference here, they did not suspect that more than 2,600 people were buried under the ground of this depression.

Zhao Junsheng got up early in the morning, practiced marksmanship several times outside the tent of the camp outside the city, and for more than an hour, he sweated profusely, and after sweating, the whole person was refreshed.

Changed into clean clothes, and just after breakfast, someone came to report: "General, General Gao Xu sent someone to say that he has led his troops to attack Xinchang, Anshi and Wenxian in a company. He learned from a Goguryeo official in Wenxian that Feng Hong and his party were being arrested by the King of Goguryeo in Pingguo City, and it was reported that the Goguryeo side was actively transferring Feng Hong and his party of more than 5,000 people to Anping. ”

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while and ordered; "Send someone to tell Gao Xu, let him slow down the offensive a little, and wait for Feng Hong and his party to withdraw from Pingguo before waving their army to capture Pingguo!"

"Yes!"

Feng Hong and his party are the most important excuse for Zhao Junsheng to send troops to attack Goguryeo, if Feng Hong and his party are captured now, this battle will not be easy to fight, and it will not be easy to explain to the imperial court, only if Feng Hong and his party flee all the way east, he can continue to fight!

In terms of long-distance running, Gao Xu's ability is obviously better than that of Wei Chi Yandong, and he has even taken down the three cities in just a few days, on the one hand, he himself has won the essence of surprise attacks and long-distance attacks, on the other hand, because this was originally the territory of the Central Plains Dynasty, the number of Han people is far more than that of barbarians, and the Han people were exploited and humiliated under the rule of Goguryeo, and their active cooperation played a great role when the soldiers and horses of the Central Plains court came to kill.

Zhao Junsheng had just given an order to Gao Xu, and soon someone came to report the urgent military situation: "General Qiyu, the scout team has found a Goguryeo army a hundred miles east of Xiangping City, numbering about 5,000 people, with 2,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry!" Judging from the direction they came, this Goguryeo army should have set out from the inner city! ”

The domestic city is the last national capital of Goguryeo. In the 4th year of Sigwang (427 AD), the Goguryeo king Golian moved the capital from the inner city to Pyongyang to avoid the threat of the Northern Wei Dynasty and to strengthen his control over Silla and Baekje.

At this time, although the domestic city was no longer the capital of Goguryeo, it was still one of the most important cities in Goguryeo and the political and military center of Goguryeo in the northern territory.

Zhao Junsheng quickly found the location of this Goguryeo army from the map, and he immediately ordered Wei Chi Yandong to lead his troops to ambush in a hidden place on the north bank of the Daliang River, and let Chang Kun lead his army to ambush in a hidden place south of the Daliang River.

The advancing Goguryeo generals did not know that Xiangping City had already been broken by Zhao Junsheng's soldiers and horses, and they were still ordered to garrison Xiangping City.

Zhao Junsheng led his army to hold on to Xiangping City, waiting for the Goguryeo army to come.

At noon the next day, the Goguryeo army finally came to the city of Xiangping, and the Goguryeo flag was still hanging on the city, but the city gate was closed, which made the general of the Goguryeo army very puzzled.

He is the eldest son of the king of Goguryeo, Gao Lian, and is twenty-four years old this year.

Gao Suduo looked up at the city tower and shouted: "Sukeduo is ordered by the king to lead the army to reinforcements, which general is on duty at the head of the city, and he can open the city gate and let this prince lead the army into the city!" ”

The flags on the head of the city suddenly all fell, and countless banners of the Youzhou army were erected in an instant, and the faces of Gao Suduo and the Goguryeo generals changed greatly one by one, and they panicked.

At this time, a loud shout suddenly came from the top of the city: "Release the arrows-"

"Whoosh ······" Arrows flew down as if they didn't want money, and countless Goguryeo soldiers were shot and fell.

"Retreat—" Takasuke let out a terrible cry, and as soon as he pulled the reins and turned the horse's head, he galloped away in the direction he had come.

"Click, click, click······" The city gate was quickly opened, the drawbridge was quickly lowered, and a cavalry under the personal leadership of Zhao Junsheng came out of the city and rushed towards the retreating Goguryeo army.

The Goguryeo generals were already in a panic at this time, and they were completely collapsed in an instant when Zhao Junsheng led the cavalry to rush like this.

Gao Suke rode wildly under the protection of his own guards, and fled to the east in embarrassment, and the other Goguryeo soldiers scattered and fled, but they were quickly blocked back, and to the north was the Daliang River, which was a fast river, and the Goguryeo soldiers who fled to the river were swept away by the river one by one.

The Goguryeo army that fled to the south and east was surrounded by a large number of generals led by Chang Kuntong, and Zhao Junsheng led cavalry to kill him in the rear, and the Goguryeo generals who risked to escape across the river were intercepted and captured by Wei Chi Yandong and his troops.

The battlefield was already a one-sided slaughter, until dusk, the battle ended, the eldest son of the king of Goguryeo, Gao Suke, died in the chaos, more than 3,800 of the 5,000 Goguryeo soldiers were killed, and more than 1,100 were captured, but these captives were all executed by order of Zhao Junsheng without exception.

After dealing with this Goguryeo army, Zhao Junsheng's lieutenant Chi Yandong led the army to attack Liaoyang, Wangping, Houcheng and Gaoxian counties.

Zhao Junsheng left 1,000 Youzhou troops and 1,000 surrendered Yan troops in Xiangping City, and he led 23,000 men along the Daliang River to the east.

On the third day of the sixth month, Zhao Junsheng's army was blocked under the city of Susheng Bone.

Although Goguryeo moved the capital to the domestic city and Pyongyang Fortress, the military defense function of the first national capital has been retained, and it can block a large number of enemy attacks with only a few troops.

Here, no matter how many enemy troops attack, the defenders of the Bone City only need a small number of troops to hold this place.

For more than ten days, Zhao Junsheng launched several attacks, but each time he was repulsed and returned in vain, but fortunately, the loss was not large.

At this time, Gao Xu's army had completely occupied the Liaodong Peninsula and pursued Feng Hong all the way to the Anping River, but Feng Hong and his party still escaped across the river.

Zhao Junsheng received the battle report sent by Gao Xu when it was already June 12, after several successive siege failures, he knew that the attack on the city of Susheng could not use conventional siege methods, so he selected 500 vigorous and flexible warriors from the army and taught them the method of rock climbing.

On June 15, Zhao Junsheng launched a large army to attack the city of Susheng Bone head-on, and sent these 500 agile and agile warriors to climb up from the side cliff, so he attacked the city in one fell swoop, scattered the defenders, and captured the city of Susheng.

This Susheng Bone City is a hurdle in front of the domestic city, and now the Youzhou army has passed this hurdle under the command of Zhao Junsheng, and the soldiers are pointing directly at the domestic city.

There was originally an acropolis in the domestic city, five miles away, the name is the Marudu mountain city, with the mountain range as a barrier, the king of Goguryeo lived in the domestic city in peacetime, once there was a war, the king of Goguryeo moved to the Marudu mountain city, but once the Marudu mountain city was captured by Murong Hao of Qianyan, the Marudu mountain city was almost destroyed, the king of Goguryeo thought that it could not be repaired, and has been living in the domestic city since then, and the Marudu mountain city has gradually become a ruin.

"General, I found out, the defender of the domestic city is the Goguryeo general Ge Lu who picked up Feng Hong. According to the confessions of the nearby Goguryeo people, coupled with the interrogation of the Goguryeo soldiers we caught, we learned that there were more than 8,000 defenders in the city, and 110,000 people! The scout reported to Zhao Junsheng.

Zhao Junsheng knew that the south of the domestic city was the Yalu River, and as long as he captured the domestic city, the north of the Yalu River would basically be in his hands.

Zhao Junsheng looked at the city and asked Li Yuande: "How can the parts and components of the siege equipment be transported?" ”

"General, the siege equipment parts are bulky and difficult to transport, and it will take at least two days to arrive!"

Zhao Junsheng instructed Chang Kun: "Take 3,000 men and horses to the city to scold and see if the Goguryeo people dare to go out of the city to fight!" ”

"Yes, General!" Chang Kun immediately took 3,000 cavalry and galloped to the city to provoke the Goguryeo defenders.

At first, the Goguryeo defenders ignored it, but later Chang Kun asked the generals to scold the defenders of the city wall, and the Goguryeo generals jumped to their feet one by one.

The guard general Ge Lu was scolded miserably, he was scolded the most fierce and vicious one, Ge Lu's temper itself is not good, originally wanted to obey the order of the Goguryeo king Gao Lian only to defend not to fight, but one morning scolded down, Ge Lu's nose was crooked, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore, and opened the city gate after noon and led three thousand cavalry out to meet Chang Kun.

Chang Kun seemed to be right, and when Ge Lu led three thousand cavalry to rush over, he immediately made a gesture, and the cavalry behind him quickly split into two, and the Goguryeo cavalry passed through the middle of the Wei cavalry under the leadership of Ge Lu, not only did not cause any damage to the Wei army, but was constantly shot by the Wei army from both sides, and suffered heavy losses.

The one who hates the most is Chang Kun, Ge Lu has already set his eyes on Chang Kun and took the lead in killing Chang Kun.

Chang Kun was not afraid, and fought against him, this Ge Lu did have the ability to be arrogant, and he actually fought with Chang Kun on Wuyi.

The two men fought for half an hour, and there was no sign of defeat on either side.

Zhao Junsheng, who was in the distance, saw that going on like this was not good for the soldiers and horses under Chang Kun's command, after all, he had been exposed to the sun for a morning, his physical strength had been exhausted, and his morale had been greatly depleted, if it was delayed, the situation would probably be reversed, so he immediately took out his longbow and arrows and shot them at Ge Lu.

Ge Lu was distracted and picked up an arrow shot by Zhao Junsheng, but was slashed by Chang Kun under the horse.

As soon as Ge Lu died, the cavalry he brought out collapsed instantly, and he wanted to retreat into the city but couldn't, the defenders in the city did not open the door, and they wanted to go and were blocked by the Wei army, and after being killed most of them, the remaining Goguryeo cavalry chose to surrender.

Zhao Junsheng was in a good mood for a while: "Come on, let the five thousand people in the city surrender, otherwise once the city is broken, the jade will be burned!" ”
