Chapter 325: Fortified City
Yu Wenhua was ambushed in Dadonggou, 4,000 light cavalry lost 3,002, and retreated to the camp of the Three Forks River in embarrassment, but he no longer dared to mention the matter of taking advantage of the situation to attack Gaimu and Xincheng.
Along the way, they hurriedly retreated, for fear that the Goguryeo army would chase and kill them again.
When he finally entered the camp of the Three Forks River, Yu Wenhua became arrogant again. He ordered the soldiers to cut back the Goguryeo heads, one by one with lime pickled and sealed, and then began to report to the Linshuo Palace, and then wrote a letter to his father Yuwenshu, explaining the situation, and complained that Luo Cheng's rescue was late, causing him to lose a large number of light horses, and asked his father to help him participate in Luo Cheng.
After doing this, Yu Wenhua ordered the camp gate to be closed tightly, and the turtle could not shrink out.
"Big brother, Luo Cheng's bastard actually marched into Gaimu City."
When Yu Wenhua heard this, he became angry, "He actually dares to attack Gai Mu? ”
"Chengdu just sent someone to report, saying that Luo Cheng cleaned up the battlefield and killed all 2,000 captives, this bastard, we fought a tough battle, but he came to pick up a big bargain in vain, he cut off 3,000 heads, and captured the city lord of Xincheng alive and captured the enemy's handsome banner. You must know that the new city lord Yuan Jiantu, but Goguryeo Mo is the second son of Zhiyuan Taizuo. ’
"Now Luo Cheng has transferred a lot of horses from Xuansu and Shiligang, and now he has marched to Gaimu City with 5,000 vanguard troops, 5,000 tribal soldiers and county soldiers."
Yu culture and heart are dripping blood.
Goguryeo's five thousand forwards attacked, he didn't go to reinforce the Sifang Fort, but he didn't expect that Luo Siye of the Sifang Fort actually made a beautiful counterattack, he thought about picking a soft pinch and pinching, grabbing some credit, who expected to chase the ambush halfway, and lost 3,200 light cavalry, if it wasn't for Luo Cheng to bring the troops over, he estimated that he would not even have his life today.
Ke Yu Wenhua was not grateful, he just hated Luo Cheng even more.
"You said that the Goguryeo people were newly defeated, and if Gaimu City couldn't stop it from falling, or it was broken, wouldn't that be a great achievement in the establishment of Luo in vain?"
"Gaimu City is much more dangerous than Xuansu City, Luo Cheng can't have such good luck, right?"
"What if, I mean?" Yu Wenhua said with a black face.
Yuwen Zhiji thought for a while, "Then why don't we also lead the troops to Gaimu City, if Luo Cheng captures Gaimu, then we will also have a credit." ”
Yu Wenhua said, "But if it can't be attacked, or other surrounding Goguryeo troops come to help, this snowy day may also be besieged by the counter-siege." Forget it, fuck it off, let's just rest here. Anyway, there are 2,000 heads, and even if there is no reactive power, they can be resisted. ”
Gaimu.
The city of Gaimu was built on a hill to block the river.
This is Shenyang in later generations, and the Hunhe River flows from here.
At this time, the Hunhe River is called the Xiaoliao River, which runs from east to west, and joins the Liao River in the west, and along the river channel, it is a natural passage through the mountains of Liaodong, which can reach the inner bank of Liaodong, and go east to the north bank of the Yalu River and enter the Samhan Peninsula.
Although it is not only this hole that can enter the inland, the Xiaoliao River is also an important hole, so on this hole, there are dozens of mountain fortresses such as Gaimu and Xincheng to guard it.
Yang Wanchun, the lord of Gaimu City, threw down Yuanjian Tu and took the lead in escaping back to Gaimu, and then he sent troops here to intercept the other tribes, he forced them to enter the city, and then accepted his command.
Although Yang Wanchun was born in the south, as a royalist faction, he was very trusted by King Gao Yuan, and his means were strong, and the newly defeated armies also accepted his command.
As a result, in Gaimu City, 10,000 defeated soldiers quickly recovered their morale.
In addition, there were still 2,000 garrisons in the original Gaimu City, so Yang Wanchun had 12,000 soldiers and horses. He also ordered the young and strong people in the city to go to the city to assist in the defense, and at once recruited thousands of people.
Yang Wanchun also sent the original Gai Mu City's subordinate to lead people to the new city, take over the city defense, and transfer troops to help.
When Luo Cheng rushed to Gaimu City with 5,000 vanguard troops, 5,000 tribal soldiers, and township regiment soldiers, what he saw was not Gaimu's panicked and frightened scene, but silence.
Halfway up the mountain, Gaimu City stands tall.
The flag of Goguryeo fluttered, and you could see a faint figure swaying behind the wall built of mountain stones.
Luo Cheng sighed, "It's a pity." ”
Si Ye frowned, "It seems that you have indeed taken precautions, but if you don't make a move, you don't know what is true or false." ”
A Khitan leader took the initiative to ask for help.
Luo Cheng looked at the bald beard, and he also had a big gold ring on his ear. Yong is very brave, but a little biao.
"It's okay, just ask Mogo to take the lead and try Goguryeo."
In the early years, the Khitan was repeatedly attacked by the Turks, Sui, and Goguryeo, and the ancient eight tribes were scattered, so later the Khitan regrouped to establish a new eight, and the eight tribes also realized the alliance and formed the Dahe alliance to jointly fight against foreign enemies.
After being defeated by the Goguryeo tribe in the early years, Mogo was taken captive and went south, and later lived with his tribe in Liaodong and became a Goguryeo people.
However, he and many of his people were actually dissatisfied with the Goguryeo, after all, in Liaodong, there was no freedom to live in the Khitan grassland.
Mo Ge took hundreds of Khitan tribesmen with him, and Luo Cheng drew hundreds of tribesmen to him, a total of 1,000 people to launch a feint.
Snow-capped mountains.
Morgo shouted and led the charge.
Halfway through the rush, a lot of rolling rocks and logs were suddenly thrown down the mountain.
The boulder rolling wood rolled down with a huge impact, and there was only one road in front of the mountain city that was not wide, and the rest of the place was very steep, and this counterattack caused heavy casualties to the tribesmen.
More than 10 people were lost.
They continued to rush forward, but they continued to throw stones and logs from above, and then crossbow arrows were fired.
Before they could rush under the walls of the mountain city, the tribal soldiers had already lost no less than a hundred people.
Seeing this, Luo Cheng shook his head and ordered the troops to be withdrawn.
"This Gai Mu City is really well guarded, it seems that Yang Wanchun is indeed an ability, and there is no chance."
"Just retreat?"
Luo Cheng looked at Gaimu City.
"The terrain of this mountain city is dangerous, the garrison in the city is estimated to be more than 10,000, this kind of mountain city is originally designed for defense, it stores grain, accumulates weapons, has food and water, and can hold on for a long time. 10,000 defenders guard, you have to have several times the number of soldiers, and you have to besiege and attack for a long time to succeed, now this weather, not suitable for siege, besides, he has 10,000 in the city, we only have 10,000, can't fight. In case the city is not fortified for a long time, and other Goguryeo soldiers are attracted to surround it, we may not be able to leave. Withdraw. ”
"It's unwilling to withdraw like this." Inheritance Road.
Old Dao Wei Zheng said with a smile, "In the land of Xincheng, there were originally a total of about 50,000 soldiers and horses, but after several battles of Wuliluo, Xuansu, Sifangtai, and Dadonggou, nearly half of the soldiers have been lost before and after. Now there are more than 10,000 soldiers in this Gaimu City, and there are only 10,000 people in the other dozens of mountain fortresses. Even if it is a new town, an important town around more than ten miles, it is definitely very empty at this time. ”
Luo Cheng turned his head to look at Wei Zheng, "Could it be that the Wei Ji Room wants to suggest that I lead my army to bypass Gai Mu and directly attack Xincheng, an important town in the rear?" ”
