"Jin Youyi Weihu Benlang General, awarded the silver Qingguanglu doctor."

Yan Bi announced the decree to Luo Cheng with an unkind face in the camp of the left Fifth Army by the Xiaoliao River, and Luo Cheng smiled after hearing it, "Luo Cheng took the order." ”

After receiving the holy decree, Luo Cheng asked in a low voice, "Is the eldest lady okay?" ”

Yan Bi glared at Luo Cheng with his nostrils, making Luo Cheng bored himself.

"At a young age, you play this kind of trick, do you really think that there is no one in the court?"

Luo Cheng smiled and didn't speak.

"I advise you not to play this kind of trick, it will not do you any good." Yan Bi said a few more words, and then told Luo Cheng, "Yu Wenshi is now in charge of the surrender of Xincheng, so His Majesty specially sent me to the Left Fifth Army as an envoy to surrender, and I will not leave this time." Luo Cheng, I'll keep an eye on you. ”

Luo Cheng felt a little headache, originally this Yan Langzhong and he could get along with him, but who would have expected that Yan Niangzi's matter would be involved, so now Yan Bi is already eager to eat his meat and pick his skin.

He came to be the envoy, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to have peace in the future.

A veteran came over to pay a visit.

"Song Laosheng meets the general."

Luo Cheng hurriedly went over to help up this white-bearded veteran, Song Laosheng, who was over fifty years old, was a general of Huyalang, and he was also a general in the middle of the court, he was the second general of the left first army, and actually led the right first army to garrison the Liao River, and later changed to the second general of the right forward army, and now he has been reassigned to the second general of the left fifth army.

When he was still stationed on the west bank of the Liao River before, Luo Cheng made wine and sold, and he had a good relationship with Song Laosheng, he made wine, and Song Laosheng was still his distributor, and everyone was happy to make money together.

Therefore, Song Laosheng protected Yan Bilai to the Left Fifth Army this time, although his seniority and age were above Luo Cheng, but he was below Luo Cheng, and he was not dissatisfied.

Compared with Yan Bi, who was angry because the cabbage at home was arched by Luo Cheng, he lost his mind early, but Song Laosheng was more concerned about whether he could make meritorious contributions to the Fifth Army of the Left Army this time.

After all, he is old, and he is not young when he is stuck in this position.

Seeing that Luo Cheng is so young, he has already been promoted to the general of the Tiger Benlang, and it turns out that Luo Yi is just a general of the Tiger Benlang, and now everyone is in the light of Luo Cheng and has been promoted to the general of the right guard and the Duke of Yanguo, Song Laosheng is not envious of it is fake.

"I came to the camp just now, and I was very pleased to see that our Fifth Army on the Left was strong and sharp."

"Go deep into the tiger's den, how can you do it without good equipment."

"Hahaha!" The two laughed.

The angry Yan Bi flicked his sleeves and left directly.

Luo Cheng scratched his head, didn't pay attention to him, and pulled Song Laosheng to sit down.

"Tea?"

"It's not interesting to drink tea, drink wine, drink some of the Dragon Gate Flying General you brewed. Since you crossed the river, the wine trade has stopped, and the days are not as refreshing as before, not to mention that the money is not earned, even the wine has not been drunk. ”

Luo Cheng asked someone to take a bottle of liquor and poured a little for Song Laosheng.

"On the march, you can't drink too much."

Song Laosheng picked up the cup and drank it all in one sip, and after drinking, he was still there with a snort, and the aftertaste was so refreshing.

"Okay, just drink this one."

Putting down the wine glass, Song Laosheng asked about military affairs.

As a second-year general, he is the deputy of an army, not only has the position of assistant commander, but also has to divide the troops and command them at any time according to the situation.

"I crossed the river all the way, ran 300 miles, passed through the Goguryeo city for more than 10 years, but it was very easy, along the way Goguryeo castle has either been planted with my Great Sui flags such as Xuanxuan, Cangyan, and Nansu." Speaking of this, he smiled and added him to a new city, "My Great Sui flag has also been planted on the new city." ”

Luo Cheng smiled, there are probably not many people who know about it, but Luo Cheng doesn't care, anyway, the book can't be faked, as for the real and fake fall, that's the matter of the people behind.

"Even if there are other cities that have not been surrendered or destroyed, they have closed the city gates all the way, I brought three hundred horsemen to escort Yan Langzhong, but no one came to stop them, it seems that they are indeed afraid of General Luo."

"Hundreds of miles around Xincheng, the Goguryeo people have indeed been scared, and we can run amok. I came all the way, while marching, while sweeping the surrounding area, clearing the wilderness for them, there were still some Goguryeo people hiding in the countryside and not entering the city, now, there is no longer a village with people in the wilderness. ”

Luo Cheng pointed to a map on the table, "But further along, the situation is not so good." According to the news sent back by the front carriage, there are about more than 100 mountain cities in front, which is the birthplace of Goguryeo, and the first royal city of Goguryeo, Susheng Bone City, is there. ”

As the first royal city of Goguryeo, Susheng Bone City was established for more than 40 years before moving away.

Seven hundred years ago, in order to escape the persecution of internal strife, Zhu Meng, the prince of Yufu, fled from the country of Fuyu and went south, and established the Kingdom of Goguryeo with the Bone City of Susheng as the center.

From here, Goguryeo gradually expanded, and slowly formed the Goguryeo Kingdom centered on Hengren in Hengren.

Later, it developed to the Yalu River, and finally after more than 700 years, it was possible to have the territory of the Goguryeo Kingdom that is now thousands of miles wide.

Although the Susheng Bone City is only an early royal city of Goguryeo, and the scale is small, after all, this is their land of dragon prosperity, so the mountain city here is strong and dangerous, guarding the upper reaches of the Hunhe River.

At the same time, it is also an important passage to the second royal city of Goguryeo, the domestic city, which was an important center before the Goguryeo people moved their capital to Pyongyang.

The domestic city is near Ji'an in the later generations, that is, on the west bank of the upper reaches of the Yalu River.

Luo Cheng pointed to the Susheng Bone City and the Domestic City, and then pointed to the Yalu River.

"According to His Majesty's will, each of the nine armies going to Pyongyang will assemble on the west bank of the Yalu River, and then march south together to attack Pyongyang. The plan requires us to arrive at the Yalu River before the end of May, from where we are now, to the assembly position, the straight-line distance is only more than 200 miles, but there is no direct road, we have to make a big detour, from here first through the city of Susheng Bone, then through the domestic city, the city of Maru, and then to the edge of the Yalu water, and then down the river, this bend is quite large, at least more than 600 miles. ”

At this time, it was already the beginning of May, and in less than a month, Luo Cheng's Left Fifth Army had to travel alone through these more than 600 miles, especially through the three major city groups.

Especially the domestic city is still one of the three capitals of Goguryeo, and this trip is definitely not easy to go.

"Then the general means that we passed by quietly?"

Luo Cheng smiled slightly, "No, we have to pass by with a high profile, and we also have to make a posture of sweeping and attacking the city along the way, it is best to bluff and play more flags, well, give me a few banners of the three armies on the left and the four armies, and we will treat it as the three armies passing by." ”
