Li Wenyuan escorted Yuangai Suzhen back to the woods where Xue Ju was stationed and told Xue Ju the detailed situation, Xue Ju thought about it for a while, and then said: "There is a letter from the big camp from the flying pigeon, let us launch an attack on the Goguryeo reinforcements on a certain day, and delay their rescue." The siege of Liaodong City has finally come to the most critical time, and Yuan Taizuo will not be able to hold out for a few days. ”

Li Wenyuan nodded in agreement, didn't say much at the moment, left his personal guard to guard Yuan Gai Suzhen, changed into armor, and prepared to lead the troops to set off. This time, Xue Ju did not put on the usual stainless steel armor, but put on the golden and red tasseled helmet that was said to have been handed down by his father.

Xue Ju also turned over his horse after dressing up, and said to the cavalry under his command: "Sons, charge with me in a while, the golden helmet will not fall, and the army will not disperse!" Let's also go and see who is more powerful than the Goguryeo army and the Hu people. ”

Yuangai Suwen was in a very bad mood today, in the morning, he was forced by the generals to send troops to aid Liaodong, and in order to ensure safety, more than 1,000 cavalry scouts only came back with more than 100 cavalry, and they all reported that they were exterminated by the Sui army scouts, and the farthest team saw the battle situation in Liaodong City from a distance, and the dead bodies under the city were sleeping. The city walls are mottled with blood, but there are still Goguryeo flags on the city heads, as well as the Yuanzi banner still hanging on the city tower.

This shows that his father is still organizing the soldiers and civilians in the city to defend the city, and the time when he came is relatively coincidental, if he leads the army to kill the generals, he will definitely be able to relieve the siege of Liaodong City, but it is not what he wants. What is the reason for yourself? When Yuangai Suwen was secretly thinking about how to procrastinate again, Xue Ju decided not to procrastinate.

On the evening of the same day, Li Wenyuan personally led 500 horsemen to rush into the unsuspecting rear army camp with arson, and after breaking through the camp gate, they set fire everywhere. The rear camp was next to the baggage, and Yuan Gai Suwen, who got the report, was taken aback, and then thought of hundreds of thousands of stones, grains, grass and various ordnance materials, so he hurriedly ordered the soldiers of the barracks to open the camp gate to go to the rescue, fortunately, they were still on the bank of the Yalu water, and they could get water nearby, and then ordered the former military camp to go out of the camp to guard the tents of the three armies to prevent the Sui people from sneaking attack.

When Li Wenyuan led his troops back to restore his life, it was the time when all the Chinese military camps came out to fight the fire with all their might. When Xue Ju saw that his goal had been achieved, he waved his hand, and the five thousand cavalry rushed to the three army camps of the Goguryeo army in five directions.

Yuangai Suwen stayed in the Chinese army camp at this time, his own personal guards guarded the camp, and he personally commanded the three armies to fight the fire from a high place. At this time, I suddenly felt a little shaking on the sentry tower, and when I looked into the distance, I saw a flash of light in the moonlight, but it was the moonlight that the cavalry armor opposed. After taking a closer look and listening, I saw a large flag with the character of Sui fluttering in the night wind, hunting sound.

Seeing the group of cavalry rushing straight towards his Chinese military camp, Yuangai Suwen was horrified in his heart, and hurriedly shouted hoarsely: "Close the camp gate quickly!" ”

Seeing that the camp gate was finally slowly closed before the arrival of the group of Sui cavalry, I suddenly felt a lot more relieved, and then I seemed to suddenly think of something, and hurriedly asked the liaison soldiers next to me to play the flag, so that the army outside could prepare to deal with the cavalry attack.

Before the flag was finished, the group of cavalry had already arrived in front of the Chinese barracks, and one of the two teams rushed to the front camp, and the other team ran to the rear camp and the soldiers of the Chinese barracks to fight the fire. The cavalry that rushed to the camp was led by Xue Ju, and they also carried arson. Xue Ju waved his horse lance violently, and successively overturned several Goguryeo generals who came to block, tearing a gap in the defense line of the Goguryeo army, and the cavalry behind him also rushed in.

Xue Ju and a group of cavalry rushed into the front barracks, and the cavalrymen who ran in front threw the arson objects they carried on the camp tents one after another, and the cavalry behind took the torches of the camp and lit the ignition dropped by the cavalry in front.

For a time, the cavalry was on fire everywhere they passed, blocking the pursuit of the Goguryeo army. After throwing away all the arsonist on his body, he rushed out from the other side of the former barracks. The infantry of the front battalion of the Goguryeo army could not catch up with Xue Ju's cavalry, so they had to stay behind to put out the fire. At this time, Xue Ju once again reorganized the team, led the cavalry to kill the same way again, this time what they had in their hands was no longer arsonists and torches, but bright sabers.

If the two armies are in front, the horse lance can still be used to fight the enemy soldiers, and it is really not as practical as a short and sharp saber to steal the camp at night. Wherever Xue Ju's cavalry went, the soldiers of the Goguryeo army fled quickly to avoid the vital point and were stabbed. The soldiers who fled slowly were directly beheaded, and the headless corpses fell on the burning tent, and the hot blood actually weakened the fire on the tent for a while.

On the other side, Li Wenyuan led the cavalry to replenish the arson, and rushed to the rear barracks, the rear army is different from the front army responsible for guarding and guarding, most of them are unarmed firefighting soldiers, at most they only hold a wooden bucket with or without water in their hands, where is there resistance at this time? They were all rushed by the cavalry led by Li Wenyuan, and the bones and tendons that were broken at the moment were broken, and they fell in a pool of blood and did not know whether they were alive or dead.

Rushing through the crowd of firefighters, Li Wenyuan went straight to the new purpose of his trip, the baggage camp. He and Xue Ju had already discussed, and Li Wenyuan led five hundred cavalry to set fire to the rear camp, the reason why he chose this was because when he accompanied Yuan Gai Suzhen to see Yuan Gai Suwen during the day, the defense of the rear camp was actually weak, and he didn't even reject the horse.

As soon as the rear camp caught fire, Yuangai Suwen would inevitably be worried about the large amount of military supplies hoarded by the baggage battalion next to the rear camp, so he would definitely send troops to put out the fire. At this time, the whole army charged again, divided into two teams of cavalry led by Li Wenyuan and Xue Ju respectively, and attacked the front and rear camps respectively.

Because it was unlikely that the front battalion would be mobilized, it was a difficult bone to gnaw, so Xue Ju led the team to rush the camp and set it on fire, and when he got rid of the pursuit of the front battalion, he would kill the whole team back. It's just that the soldiers of the front battalion were busy fighting the fire, which was an unexpected joy, and Xue Ju opened a killing spree, killing the Goguryeo soldiers in all directions.

Li Wenyuan led the cavalry to attack the rear camp, this time is the real purpose of this night attack, the baggage camp. Li Wenyuan led the army to break through several camp cards and came to the baggage camp, regardless of whether it was a granary, at this time the soldiers of the rear army were trying to surround Li Wenyuan and them. Li Wenyuan didn't dare to stay, and when he and his cavalry saw the warehouse, they threw the ignition and then lit it. burned most of the camp tents in a row, and then rushed out before the Goguryeo army was encircled, and escaped far away at night, and went around in a circle to meet Xue Ju in the small forest where the troops were stationed again.

Yuangai Suwen stood on the sentry tower and watched the two Sui cavalry kill a few back and forth in the front camp and the rear camp, and then moved away, the hands supporting the fence of the sentry tower turned white due to too much force, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously went up.
