For Yang Wenhua's few words, Cui Yuan felt happy at the same time, but also a little regretful.

"The five county towns in front are actually very good, and it doesn't matter if the virtuous brother doesn't leave anyone to guard it, why bother to tear down the city in tatters, and it will cost a lot of money to repair it for my brother in the future."

"We have too few troops, it is really not suitable to divide troops to garrison now, and Goguryeo's counterattack should also be crazy."

Cui Yuan was a little unimpressed with Yang Wenhua's explanation.

"How can Goguryeo's counterattack be so fast, after we attack the entire Liaodong, it may not be the time of ice and snow, and then we can naturally face Goguryeo's counterattack calmly."

"When the time comes, those little city brothers will definitely be able to keep it?"

Yang Wenhua looked at Cui Yuan and was a little speechless, you are the lord of Liaodong, can you have a strategic vision, what is the meaning of calculating the gains and losses of several small cities.

Even if that small city is richer than your previous family property, now is the time to fight the world.

"My brother may understand what it means: save the land and lose the land and lose the land, and the people lose the land and the land are both saved, as long as we have enough Han people in our hands, are we afraid that there will be no city?

We can't wait until the ice and snow melt in the beginning of spring, when Goguryeo organizes hundreds of thousands of elite troops, and our side is a new army that has not been trained for a long time, how can we resist it.

Besides, Goguryeo Chengping has been in peace for more than ten years, and there is a lot of grain in the country, even if it is a war with us by mistake, it will be able to bear it.

On the other hand, when our new army was first established, if we wanted to give our army the strength to fight, we would inevitably consume a lot of grain stocks, and even if we could seize some of Goguryeo's grain, it would inevitably cause damage to the treasury.

In this way, spring ploughing cannot afford to delay our side, if there is not enough food, what should my brother rely on to lead Liaodong at that time.

Therefore, we must not only capture the entire territory of Liaodong as soon as possible, but also completely drive Goguryeo back to the peninsula before the beginning of spring. ”

After listening to what Yang Wenhua said, Cui Yuan muttered: "If people lose land, will people and land exist?" ”

"Brother Xian is high, but we want to take dozens of cities in the whole territory of Liaodong before the beginning of spring, even if we have Brother Xian's ice boat to help, I'm afraid it will not be possible?"

"Brother, don't worry too much, after we take the new city in front of us, we will continue to attack Liaodong City, as long as we take Liaodong City, the surrounding small cities will definitely be able to spread the word.

At that time, I will let Goguryeo take the initiative to send a large army to attack us, as long as we win a defensive counterattack, the north of Yalu Water can naturally go down in one go.

At that time, Goguryeo wanted to deal with the two neighbors to the north alone, so that they could be busy.

In the end, the elder brother only needed a few letters to send to Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje to reconcile, and then to the Tang Dynasty, which was enough to sit firmly in Liaodong. ”

At this time, Li Laoer's country is not very stable, if Goguryeo can be divided into two, and the three northeastern countries become four countries, I think Li Lao Er will be happy to see such a thing.

This is the early development direction chosen by Yang Wenhua and Cui Yuan.

Of course, this is just an intention, and if you want to achieve this goal, the first thing you need to do is to take the new city in front of you.

After returning to the camp, it was already the time for Yang Wenhua to eat, and it was also the happiest time of the day for these soldiers, after all, in this era, there are not many days when you can eat enough and have some meat every day.

Even if they have been eating like this for several days, these people still try to eat as much as possible at each meal, as if they will not have to eat the next meal, Yang Wenhua can also help them, as long as they don't waste it, eat more to make their bodies stronger.

After the meal, Yang Wenhua did not let them fall asleep immediately, but let them start to work after resting for half an hour.

Winter is already a long night, where can I sleep for so long, how good it is to do more with the snow.

In the past few days, the subordinate soldiers have also been accustomed to Yang Wenhua's tossing, but they have no complaints.

Anyway, Yang Wenhua didn't treat them badly, he did something to make his stomach hungry, and he could eat again, and they were still happy to do so.

In the face of a city as mid-city as Xincheng, it is no longer enough to minimize the loss by simply blasting a city gate.

You must know that Xincheng itself is a city with 120,000 people and more than 10,000 troops, and the spies reported that although the Goguryeo army has assembled in Liaodong City in the past two days, more than 10,000 troops have also been reinforced in Xincheng.

It's a tough battle.

And blasting the city gate is not omnipotent, Yang Wenhua has encountered a trouble before, it may be that the news that Yang Wenhua will blast has spread, or what.

In the last city, after Yang Wenhua blasted the city gate, he was faced with not an empty city gate, but a pile full of accumulated needs, and the entire city gate was stuffed, Yang Wenhua was speechless.

I can only sigh that people are smart, and war can play a catalytic role, and under the threat of life, people's emergency measures will be more and more.

In the end, it was only by relying on the large number of people and a few snowballs that one person smashed over that the people on the hundreds of meters long city wall were suppressed and the city was broken.

Although the process is a bit ridiculous, Yang Wenhua discovered a truth, attacking the city in the ice and snow depends on whimsy.

The city wall of this era was not high, Chang'an was only six meters high, and the new city was nearly five meters shorter.

Although the ladder is not a bamboo ladder for one person to climb like in TV, but a wide wooden siege ladder, Yang Wenhua still feels that the speed of several people going up the city wall together is still too slow.

Siege has always been a matter of great attrition, according to Sun Tzu's Art of War: ten to encircle, five to attack, and the principle of multiple battles, Yang Wenhua is simply not enough to siege the city.

Therefore, Yang Wenhua must find a way, how to make more people fight with the enemy army on the city wall at one time, plus the equipment gap, in order to take the new city in one go.

This is also something that can't be helped, Yang Wenhua can't afford to lose.

With an army that has only been formed for more than ten days, if it can't maintain the myth of being undefeated, the morale of the army will be scattered, and then the team will not be easy to lead, even if the win is not beautiful enough, it will cause people's hearts to fluctuate.

Yang Wenhua took advantage of the rest of the team to take dozens of people and two ice boats to the outside of the new city, and did not stop until he was close to the range of the city wall.

In this position, both sides can see each other's expressions with the help of each other's torches, and their eyesight is better.

After a commotion on the city wall, just a few people came over, curiously exploring Yang Wenhua's group of people, waiting to see what would happen next, and did not send people out to drive them away.

Yang Wenhua didn't bother to deal with them, just went on with his own business.

I really dare to open the city gate and come out, and when Yang Wenhua comes over with the army, he can fight in the field, Yang Wenhua can't ask for it.
