Chapter 564: Cheating Food

The battle was almost a one-sided massacre, and the Goguryeo soldiers who were killed by the Tang army lost their armor and lost the courage to fight any longer, so they chose to surrender on the spot. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

More than 5,000 vanguard troops all entered the city and took over Beisha City from the Goguryeo soldiers, and the people in Beisha City realized that the city they lived in had fallen into the hands of the suzerain, the Tang Dynasty, but they still didn't understand why the Tang Dynasty wanted to attack their own country.

Maybe the people are so late to realize, or it's simple, whether Goguryeo is Gao Jianwu as the emperor or Quangai Suwen is in power, for them, the days are still day by day, and there is no difference.

The banner at the head of the city of Beisha was replaced with the flag of the Vanguard Army, and the Pioneer Army began to count its losses.

To Xuan Shijing's relief, of the three hundred Dongshan County government soldiers, only one or two were slightly injured, and the five thousand vanguard soldiers, five of whom were killed in battle, were almost negligible in casualties for the capture of Beisha City.

There will always be dead people in war, there is no need to be sad, and the responsibility on the shoulders of the living is greater, which Xuan Shijing has seen very thoroughly when he was in Longxi.

The vanguard army seized Beisha City, and Li Daozong, with Xuan Shijing and another lieutenant general, immediately rushed to the official office of Beisha City, and then posted a notice to Anmin, and sent people to take over the granary, treasury and other places in Beisha City.

Xuan Shijing stayed in the palace, while the other lieutenant went out with someone to investigate the situation in the city.

In the study room of the government office, there were records of the residents of Beisha City and materials of Beisha City, and Xuan Shijing took people to move these materials out and sent them to the hall where Li Daozong was.

"General, the last general took a cursory look, there are not many people in Beisha City, but there are a lot of coolies, and most of these coolies are Han Chinese." Xuan Shijing said.

"Han Chinese?" Li Daozong frowned: "These Goguryeo people dare to arrest my Tang people to work as coolies here, their hearts can be punished!" Li Daozong slapped his palm on the bookcase.

"It's not what the general imagined, these people should be the soldiers of the former Sui Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, after the defeat of the army, they were forced to stay in Liaodong, and as a result, these Goguryeo people were used as coolies, building the defense line around Beisha City and Anshi City, and now we have captured Beisha City, but we can liberate these people, and another advantage is that these people are now equivalent to our people of the Tang Dynasty, don't worry about them making trouble in the city, but can play a role in monitoring those Goguryeo people in the city." Xuan Shijing analyzed.

Li Daozong stroked his beard and nodded: "That's right, but these people have to send people to rein in and appease them alone, this has been more than ten or twenty years, people's hearts are the most unpredictable, the importance of Beisha City to us is self-evident, and we must not be sloppy." Li Daozong thought for a moment, and then shouted outside: "Someone! ”

"The last general!" A sergeant walked in outside the mansion and bowed his hand to Li Daozong.

"Those Goguryeo troops in the city will immediately repair the walls and gates of Beisha City, bring more people, watch over them, and those Han people in the original Beisha City, if there are those who are willing to repair together, the army will pay the wages." Li Daozong said.

"Yes." The sergeant took the order and departed.

After a while, the deputy general who went out returned to the palace.

"Lord, there is not much grain and grass in the granary of Beisha City, according to the calculation of the Goguryeo soldiers who defended the city in Beisha City before, the grain in the city will not exceed seven days, judging from the remaining grain and grass in the granary, I am afraid that in two days, the troops transporting grain and grass from Anshi City will arrive in Beisha City." Said the adjutant general.

"As expected, this king did not expect." Li Daozong stroked his beard and said: "The supply of grain and grass in Beisha City all rely on the Anshi City side to transport here, two days later, the people who transport grain and grass in Anshi City will definitely find that Beisha City has changed hands, so that the army on the side of Anshi City will send troops to attack Beisha City, with 5,000 vanguard troops to defend the city, although there is gunpowder, but it is still a little reluctant." Moreover, Yang Wanchun, the guard of Anshi City, is also a difficult person to get along. ”

"Anshi City is a difficult bone to gnaw, and the troops led by Yang Wanchun are also rare elite soldiers and strong generals in Goguryeo, and it is indeed not a wise choice to fight hard." Xuan Shijing touched his chin and thought, "It's better to outwit." ”

"Oh? How to outwit? Li Daozong asked, facing Yang Wanchun, Li Daozong still had a headache, not that he couldn't beat it, but that he was subject to too many restrictions.

"Those remnants of the former Sui have lived in Beisha City for so long, they should know the habits and language of the Goguryeo people quite well, the prince only needs to replace the banner of the Tang army at the head of the city, replace it with the banner of the defenders of Beisha City, and then let the soldiers defending the city change the armor of the Goguryeo defenders, and a person who is familiar with the Goguryeo language will negotiate with the soldiers of Anshi City who came to deliver grain and grass, how long can they hide it, and besides, the soldiers will not bloody to get some grain and grass for our army, why not?" Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes, Lord Wang, Vice Admiral Xuan is right, rather than letting the people of Anshi City find out so easily, it is better to take the opportunity to get some grain and grass back." Another lieutenant general also agreed when he heard Xuan Shijing's words.

"Okay, just follow Xuanhou's method." Li Daozong said, and then looked at the lieutenant general: "You go down quickly and order, and also, within two days, the gate and city walls of Beisha City must be repaired." ”

"Yes." The lieutenant replied, and then left the palace.

"Xuanhou is both wise and brave, if he is really a hero and a young man, the first merit of this battle should belong to Xuanhou." Li Daozong said with a smile.

"The prince has won the prize." Xuan Shijing bowed his hand and humbly said.

"However, Beisha City was captured by our army, I am afraid that this matter will not be hidden from Yang Wanchun for a long time, Yang Wanchun has many capable people, this time he came to Beisha City to transport grain and grass, and after he goes back, I am afraid that he can also see any clues." Li Daozong said.

"Since the prince is worried, then let's not let them go back." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.

"You mean to give this team of grain and grass to ...... on the way," Li Daozong looked at Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing nodded: "If it goes well, maybe we can induce the people in Anshi City to deliver another batch of grain and grass to us." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Li Daozong asked.

"The grain and grass were safely delivered to Beisha City, but the team transporting the grain and grass was attacked on the way back, and the people who survived the 'luck' went back to inform Yang Wanchun of the situation, if you are Yang Wanchun, general, what would you think?" Xuan Shijing asked rhetorically.

Li Daozong thought for a while and thought about the situation in Beisha City: "If I were Yang Wanchun, I would definitely feel that the vanguard army of the Tang Dynasty had come to the territory of Goguryeo......"
