"My lord, I can't go on like this."

"Yes, my lord, it won't be long before we are going to be trapped to death."

"My lord, do you want to find a way, or our scouts will be finished."

In the Goguryeo military camp, the generals gathered in the big tent of Yuan Taizuo, with an anxious look on their faces, and the whole big tent seemed to have become a vegetable market, full of all kinds of noisy and shouting.

In just a few days, Goguryeo lost hundreds of scouts, these scouts are the most elite cavalry of Goguryeo, and the entire battalion is only more than 1,000 people, and if it continues like this, maybe all the scouts will be killed and wounded, without scouts, the entire battalion will become deaf, blind, and a battalion of 80,000 people, and the frontal camp alone stretches for more than ten miles, how can there be less scouts to patrol?

In addition, there is not enough food in the barracks at present, and the food is only enough to last for more than 10 days, and now the rear is stepping up the collection of grain and grass from ordinary people to send to the front line.

This is simply terrible, the only effective counterattack is to strengthen the power of the scouts, or to fight a decisive battle with the Three Kingdoms Alliance as soon as possible, but now the scouts are already in a group of five, even if all the scouts are sent out, it may not be enough, unless it is transferred from the cavalry, but although the cavalry is extremely valuable, not everyone can be used as scouts, and if they are barely used, I am afraid that the casualties will be even worse; If you fight against the Triple Alliance Army, the opponent has an advantage in terms of the number of horsemen, and the risk is too great. It would have been good if he had withdrawn earlier, and he would not have fallen into the dilemma he is in now, Yuan Taizuo showed slight remorse in his heart, but his face was silent, and he asked Gao Jianwu: "What does the prince think should be done?" ”

Gao Jianwu didn't smile on his face, snorted a haha, and said: "Don't leave the branch, this king is only in charge of the navy, and now the big man is the main thing in the army." How to advance and retreat still needs to be decided by adults. ”

Gao Jianwu is not a fool, how can he be willing to hold this hot mountain into his own hands, Yuan Taizuo had already prepared for Gao Jianwu's answer, but he was not disappointed, and looked at the impassioned general in the tent, and said: "Everyone, the Sui army is powerful, and there are Baekje and Silla to help. At present, the Sui army that crosses the river is only one-third of its strength, and our army is isolated by Beishui in front of it, and there are no reinforcements available. Is it a refund? Everyone can decide together. ”

Yuan Taizuo's words fell. The generals immediately looked at each other, they were still thinking about Lord Mo Lizhi taking the idea just now, but they didn't expect Lord Mo Lizhi to throw the problem back again, if it was to fight Baekje. Fighting Silla, everyone didn't say anything, just facing the Sui army. No one is sure of victory. War and retreat are not a foolproof plan.

Gao Yanshou stood up: "My lord, let's fight, I don't want to be a pioneer." ”

It's a pity that no one picked up Gao Yanshou's words, and the big tent was still cold, and a staff member walked in. whispered a few words to Yuan Taizuo. A look of surprise flashed on Yuan Taizuo's face, and he turned to everyone: "You guys wait for a while. The official is going out to deal with an urgent matter, and I hope that before the official returns, you can come up with the idea of fighting and retreating. ”

After Yuan Taizuo finished speaking, without waiting for everyone to ask, he opened the tent and left, everyone in the tent was very puzzled, I don't know what kind of big thing happened to make Lord Mo Lizhi actually leave the general discussion behind, not to mention that there is a higher status in the account than his Rongliu King, for a while, everyone couldn't help whispering, and looked at Gao Jianwu with eyes from time to time, as for the matter of Yuan Taizuo asking everyone to take out the battle and withdraw their minds just now, everyone left it behind, and made up their minds to wait for Lord Mo Lizhi to come back.

"Lord Wang, look, Lord Mo Lizhi is a little too disagreeable." A cronie nagged beside Gao Jianwu.

Gao Jianwu glared at his cronies and said in a low voice, "Shut up." "He didn't want to make a big deal out of it at this time.

Yuan Taizuo left for a long time, almost an hour, and only returned to the camp when everyone was impatient, and the careful people found that at this time, Yuan Taizuo's face swept away the original worry.

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't leave the branch, I am willing to listen to the orders of the adults."

"Okay, okay." For this obvious nonsense, Yuan Taizuo had no sense of anger, but appreciated it, and everyone's eyes were full of surprise, but before they could figure it out, Yuan Taizuo's order had already begun to be issued: "Generals listen to orders!" ”

"The end will be."

"Immediately shrink the scouts, only patrol the camp within five miles, after you go back, you can feed the soldiers, the camp will no longer limit the military rations, and after three days of recuperation, fight to the death with the enemy!"

"Obey." After everyone answered, they realized something, and looked at Yuan Taizuo stupidly, for more than two months, although everyone confronted the Sui army across the river, there was not much contact, but Liaodong City was conquered, the capital was besieged, and the naval army was completely overthrown, a series of defeats have seriously hit everyone's confidence, and everyone has planted a shadow of defeat in their hearts, and they are subconsciously unwilling to start a decisive battle with the Sui army, Yuan Taizuo's order is undoubtedly against everyone's wishes.

It's just that everyone discussed for a long time and didn't reach a conclusion just now, but at this time, no one was able to object, and a few people snorted a few times but still didn't speak.

"Let's all go down and prepare." Yuan Taizuo has already waved his hand to drive people away.

Everyone had to rush out, and they were speculating in their hearts, I don't know why Lord Mo Lizhi suddenly became full of confidence, but in the next few days, no one inquired.

The Goguryeo scouts suddenly shrank, and the entire Beishui coast was full of scouts of the Sui army, and all of a sudden, the scouts of the Sui army became no opponents, and the most unhappy thing was naturally people like Luo Shixin, who were dedicated to meritorious service, they didn't know what to accept when they saw it, and approached step by step, but the Goguryeo scouts retreated again and again, five miles, four miles...... Gradually approaching the camp of Goguryeo, the Sui army was helpless, no matter how capable they were, they did not have the courage to rush into the camp of others.

After receiving the news that the scouts reported that the Goguryeo people were holding the camp, Yu Zhongwen, Li Hun and others did not think so, and did not care, their task was only to deal with the Goguryeo cavalry, and the camp was naturally a matter for Silla and Baekje, and it was of course better for the Goguryeo people to be willing to trap the camp.

Three days passed quickly, and early in the morning, the scouts of the Sui army found that something was wrong with the Goguryeo camp, the soldiers came and went, the camp gate was also wide open, and groups of Goguryeo soldiers drove out of the camp, and the direction was to the coalition camp.

"What? The Goguryeo people are out of the camp, quickly, immediately inform the commanders of the two armies of Baekje and Silla, and prepare to meet the enemy! Yu Zhongwen, Li Hun and others were overjoyed to get the news, and they were happy to see the battle between the two armies in this way.

80,000 Goguryeo troops poured out, 10,000 cavalry on each side, 60,000 infantry in the middle, the coalition army was not to be outdone, each left only a small number of people to stay in the barracks, Silla sent 60,000 infantry, Baekje sent 30,000 infantry, Sui army sent 40,000 cavalry, Silla on the right, Baekje in the center, Sui army on the right, a total of 130,000 troops pressed towards Goguryeo, and the two sides met in the middle.

The south shore of Beishui was originally fertile land, but now it has become a wasteland, and fortunately it is here, otherwise it would be too difficult for more than 200,000 troops on both sides to gather together, and it would be too difficult to find a place on the peninsula where the formation could be completely opened.

Hundreds of distances, both sides tacitly stopped, looking down from the sky, Goguryeo's military uniform is black, Silla's military uniform is color, Baekje's military uniform is cyan, only the Sui army is particularly conspicuous, completely red, 40,000 Sui troops are marching forward on horseback, the people and horses are the same, and the momentum alone is higher than the three ** teams.

Quiet, it can only be said that the silence is terrible, the battlefield of hundreds of thousands of people can't even hear a sound, as if everyone can't breathe, even the war horses have stopped beating their noses, and a depressing atmosphere envelops the entire battlefield, this atmosphere begins to brew in the eyes of the two armies, and suddenly reaches its peak when both sides stop.

However, everyone knows that this atmosphere will not exist for long, and everyone is waiting for his outbreak, once the outbreak occurs, this place will immediately become a battlefield of flesh and blood, either you die or I die.

"Zheng." Yuan Taizuo pulled out the long sword at his waist and pointed obliquely at the sky, Goguryeo has a tradition of fighting generals, Princess Pyeongkang's fiancé Wenda was brave and invincible, and he had killed Silla in front of the two armies, dozens of generals of Baekje and Baekje, so that the generals of the two countries talked about Wenda and changed color, but unfortunately such an invincible brave general died under the arrows of the Sui army, which made the Goguryeo people heartbroken, and Princess Pyeongkang swore not to marry.

All the Goguryeo people looked at Yuan Taizuo's long sword to see who Molizhi would send out to challenge the first game.

"My lord, please give the order to fight." A general flashed out.

Yuan Taizuo saw that the person who came out was just a partial general surnamed Li, he was going to disagree, if he was defeated for the first time, he would inevitably lose his spirit, but if he didn't agree, he was afraid of chilling the heart of the partial general, so he had to nod: "Small."

"Yes, thank you for your concern." The general surnamed Li arched his hand and clapped his horse and rushed towards the Sui army.

Yu Zhongwen, Li Hun and others were waiting for the attack of the Goguryeo people, but they didn't expect the other party to send only one person over, and immediately reacted, the other party is going to fight generals, this method has rarely been used in the Central Plains since the Three Kingdoms, the training of the army is getting stricter and stricter, and it is difficult to have an impact on the battle situation by relying on individual strength alone, however, the Goguryeo people actually want to fight generals, but there is no reason to be afraid, Yu Zhongwen looked around and asked, "Who dares to fight?" ”
