The second volume is based on the seventy-sixth chapter of the Sui Dynasty Zhou and the two armies

When someone doubted himself, Luo Yi hurriedly shouted to the back: "Hold them up."

Two strong men wearing Gao Jun's clothes and still stained with blood on their bodies were escorted up by Luo Yi's subordinates, and knelt in front of Yang Yong with a plop, with a flattering smile on their faces: "My lord, the little one has made meritorious contributions, and I ask my lord for forgiveness!" ”

Yang Yong glanced at Luo Yi, and Luo Yi hurriedly said: "General, they are all Gao Baoning's personal soldiers, and they can be known after asking them." ”

It turned out that Luo Yi and others only tracked the horseshoe prints for more than an hour before they met Gao Baoning's two pro-soldiers, at this time Gao Baoning's head had been carried by the pro-soldiers, these two pro-soldiers saw Luo Yi and others immediately knelt down and surrendered, and told the story again, their last five people and Gao Baoning fired, and the three were killed by Gao Baoning's dying counterattack, but Gao Baoning was finally killed by the two of them.

Seeing Gao Baoning's head, Luo Yi was also overjoyed, and he didn't delve into whether there was anything greasy in it, but he went to the scene to check it, and basically determined that it was Gao Baoning's head, so he brought the two of them back together.

Although Yang Yong has no good impression of these two people who profess to be loyal to the Great Zhou and awaken to the truth, he still can't erase their merits: "In this case, as long as you go to Yingzhou to check that Gao Baoning's head is true, your crimes can be pardoned and brought down." ”

The two of them got the promise, and they kowtowed with a thousand thanks, and the two of them got the gold and silver brought by the other three, and they wanted to return to the Central Plains to enjoy the blessings, and now their wishes have been fulfilled, so they are naturally satisfied.

Looking at the figures of the two of them going down, and then at Gao Baoning, who was not blind, Yang Yong was secretly vigilant in his heart, and sighed lightly: "Put his head up." Bring it back to Camp State. ”

That night, the whole army enjoyed a very sumptuous dinner, which was due to the large amount of meat, but the taste of the dinner made by these women was much better than that of the sergeants themselves, and after the dinner, in order to prevent any sergeants from not observing military discipline after the war, these women were concentrated in the middle, and the scope of their activities was demarcated, and the sergeants were not allowed to step into this circle. Women are also not allowed to step out of the circle, once they violate, regardless of gender, they will be 20 military sticks, and the second offender will be directly killed.

There was nothing to say all night, wake up early the next morning, after breakfast, the whole army immediately began to hurry, from time to time on the road will meet the Khitan people grazing, the news that the Zhou army exterminated Gao Baoning has spread in the grassland, see this herd of cattle, horses and sheep. The Khitans all left in awe.

Three days later, when the army had completed half of its journey, the scouts received news that an army of about 10,000 men had crossed the Liao River and was approaching in the direction of the procession, and was now only more than twenty miles away from the army.

Yang Yong sneered, in the face of the huge wealth of tens of thousands of good horses and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep, the Goguryeo people still couldn't help it, and dared to blatantly cross the Liao River.

The reason why Yang Yong wanted to ask for reinforcements from Yingzhou first was to defend Gao Mingli. Hearing the scout's return, he was not surprised at all, presumably Goguryeo was also very angry at the destruction of Gao Baoning, and he couldn't bear the temptation of so many cattle, sheep and horses.

"Where are our reinforcements now?"

Yang Shi replied: "General, the reinforcements are only thirty miles away from us, and they are led by General Wei Po. However, there were only two thousand. ”、

"How many enemies are there?"

"The lowly position is estimated to be around seven thousand to eight thousand."

In just three days, the Goguryeo people can mobilize seven or eight thousand people, which should also be the limit of Goguryeo, after converging with the reinforcements, the ratio of troops between the two sides should be a little more than one to two, and the Goguryeo people have the advantage, however, the west of the Liao River is the territory of the Khitans, and the Goguryeo people will act on the ground of the Khitans without a warning. The Khitans will react somewhat.

Wei Chong asked beside him, "My lord, do you order the whole army to speed up and join the reinforcements?" ”

Although the people and horses of Goguryeo are closer, if they advance with all their might, the Zhou army only needs to walk half the distance, and they can still meet the reinforcements first, but some livestock may be lost on the way, but compared with Yang Yong's safety, even if all those cattle and sheep are lost, it is nothing.

Yang Yong shook his head: "No." See the hillside ahead, pass my orders. The whole army went up the mountain and camped for reinforcements. ”

The steppe is full of rolling hills, although not large, neither high nor steep, there is no problem in stationing a team of 1,000 people, and the horses can barely accommodate it, but so many cattle and sheep can only be placed at the foot of the mountain.

"Luo Yi."

"Humble duty."

"You go to Rilianbu, find Utu, and tell him that the Great Zhou gave him the pasture of Goboryeo, and if he wants to swallow this grassland smoothly, he must help the Great Zhou defeat the Goguryeo, otherwise not only the grassland of Goboryeong may fall into the hands of the Goguryeo, but the Khitan tribes will be oppressed by Goguryeo again in the future, and he can only choose one side between the Great Zhou and Goguryeo."

"Yes, I understand."

"Yang Shi."

"Humble duty."

"You take fifty personal soldiers around the general, and you are allowed to use crossbow arrows to shoot all the Goguryeo scouts."

"Yes."

Luo Yi only took two followers and disappeared in the direction of the Rilianbu on horseback, while Yang Shi led a group of cavalry and headed head-on in the direction of the Goguryeo army in the west.

Crossing the Liao River, the Goguryeo soldiers all laughed loudly, since following Gao Baoning behind the Great Zhou two years ago to indulge in robbery, Goguryeo has dreamed of crossing the Liao River again, but has not been able to find the opportunity, today it has finally come true, and there is a big fat sheep waiting for them to receive it in front.

Unlike those soldiers, this time the commander Wenda could not see a smile on his face, Wenda was only twenty years old, with a handsome face, but no one in the Goguryeo army dared to underestimate him, in the past three years in the army, dozens of enemy generals have died under him, starting from a small soldier, in just three years to become a general, although there is a relationship in the palace, but all by his own strength.

The Zhou army only has a thousand people, and there is no problem at all to defeat the Zhou army with his own 3,000 cavalry army and 5,000 infantry troops, what worries Wenda is that he got a very bad news from Princess Pingkang a few days ago, and the second prince fell into the hands of the Zhou people.

Princess Pingkang ordered him to send troops to attack Yingzhou and rescue the second prince, but Wenda did not dare to make a mistake, Yingzhou had an army of 5,000 and the city was high and thick. To attack such a city, there is no army of tens of thousands

Once Yingzhou is attacked, it is likely to cause a major war between Goguryeo and the Great Zhou, which is dangerous.

It's just that he didn't dare not listen to Princess Pingkang's orders, Wenda was born in poverty, and if there was no accident, he could only spend his life in poverty, but when he met the princess by chance at the age of twelve, his fate was changed. At that time, Princess Pyeongkang was two years younger than him, but he fell in love with him, not only gave him a lot of money, but also recommended him to learn martial arts, after the art was completed, Wenda swore that he would be loyal to Princess Pyeongkang for the rest of his life, and soon stood out in the army after joining the army, and made many military exploits, and the king of Goguryeo also intended to fulfill him and the princess.

Just when Wenda wanted to lead the elite soldiers to infiltrate Yingzhou and rescue the second prince in person, in order to repay the princess's great kindness. There was bad news, Gao Baoning's camp was broken by the Zhou army, this is indeed bad news, as soon as Gao Baoning died, Goguryeo could no longer invade the Zhou territory in his name, and Goguryeo also lost a leader who knew the land well.

Wenda saw an opportunity from this bad news, if he could eliminate this group of men and horses before the Zhou army returned to Yingzhou, Goguryeo would not only be able to get tens of thousands of good horses and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep in the air, but it would be best for the Zhou army to dare to gallop to help. It is better to fight in the field outside the city than to attack the city, if the army sent by Yingzhou is defeated in the field, maybe Goguryeo can really take out Yingzhou, so he immediately did his best to persuade the princess to postpone the rescue of the second prince, and first take down the Zhou army that defeated Gao Baoning.

Although Wenda got the information, this team of Zhou troops was extremely powerful. With less than a thousand people, he broke through the camp of Gao Baoning, but Wenda did not believe it, suspecting that the Zhou army was deliberately bragging, he believed that the Zhou army could break through the camp of Gao Baoning with the same number of men and horses, and he should also suffer heavy losses, only the remaining more than 1,000 remnants of the army were right, and there was naturally nothing to worry about dealing with the more than 1,000 remnants.

In this way, Yingzhou now only has more than 2,000 troops, as long as Yingzhou dares to send reinforcements, he will eat them in one fell swoop. Yingzhou is equal to complete emptiness.

"Report, general, Yingzhou has sent reinforcements, and it is now less than forty miles away from our army." A scout hurried over.

Wenda hurriedly asked, "Do you know how many people there are?" ”

"Back to my lord, it is estimated that there will be no less than two thousand."

"Two thousand!" Wenda finally showed a smile on his face, so the Zhou army is pouring out, as long as the three thousand people of the Zhou army disappear, what if the high walls of Yingzhou and the city are thick, how can no one defend it.

"Probe!"

"Yes."

See the scouts go down. Wenda came to the veiled Princess Pingkang: "Fifth princess, the Zhou army has been dispatched. After this battle, you can break through Yingzhou and directly rescue the second prince. ”

Princess Pingkang nodded, her eyes showing a little tenderness: "Wenda, thank you very much, if it weren't for you, I would have been messed up." ”

"Everything the last general is given by the princess, and serving the princess is what the last general should do, but ......" Wenda's words stopped.

"Just what?" When Princess Pingkang heard that her second brother was saved, most of the worries in her heart were gone, and her tone was surprisingly gentle.

"It's just that the princess must not sneak into other countries casually in the future, this move is too risky, even if the princess wants to go to the Central Plains in the future, if she directly reveals her identity, the Central Plains officials will not dare to be rude to the princess." After Wenda finished speaking, she was suddenly a little uneasy, the princess has always been favored by the king, and she has always done her own thing, I wonder if she will not be able to accept her accusations.

"General Wen rest assured, as long as the second brother is rescued, the palace will never run around in the future."

The princess was so sensible that Wenda's heart was suddenly overjoyed, and he was about to speak again, when a fast horse in front of him rushed straight towards him, and one of them crouched on the horse's back, and from a distance he could see that he had an arrow feather stuck in his back, leaving only a short tail to tremble with the horse's jolting. The sergeant in front of him had to dodge in the face of the frenzied warhorse.

Wenda was taken aback, and gently stepped off the horse, grabbed the reins of the galloping horse, and the galloping horse shouted several times, but obediently stopped under the divine power of Wendadi.

The Goguryeo soldiers on both sides who saw the real cheers loudly: "General Shenwei!" ”

Wenda flipped the knight over the horse, who was the scout he had sent out to investigate, and the tip of the arrow peeked out from the scout's chest, showing how powerful the shooter was.

"I'm Wenda, wake up, wake up, wake up......"

The scout was already angry, and barely opened his eyes: "General, we are ...... At...... Met ten miles away...... Run into enemies. After saying this, the scout tilted his head and lost his breath.

"Someone, cover the body of this warrior."

"Yes." Several soldiers lifted the scout's body and dug a pit nearby.

"Ten miles?" Wenda muttered to himself and turned behind him: "Sons, the Zhou people are ten miles away, catch up, don't let them run, give orders, and go all out." ”

"Ho, ho, ho......" The Goguryeo people all shouted, with eight thousand to one thousand, perhaps they thought that as long as they rushed to the front, the Zhou army would be deserted and flee.

Wenda rode to Princess Pingkang: "Fifth princess, the last general will lead the cavalry first, lest the Zhou army leave the cattle and sheep and run away, and you will follow the infantry behind." ”

Princess Pingkang was not happy: "General Wen, I will go with you." ”

"It's fine." Wenda didn't say much, his 3,000 cavalry can eat more than 1,000 horses of the Zhou army, and the most worrying thing at present is that the Zhou army will escape, if the Zhou army leaves the cattle and sheep, he will not be able to catch up without infantry, after all, the Zhou army has nearly 10,000 horses to change horses.

Boom, the whole ground shook slightly, and Goguryeo's 3,000 cavalry followed closely behind Wenda and the Five Princesses, stirring up dust that almost drowned their own infantry and gradually disappeared in front.

The infantry of Goguryeo looked at the cavalry in the distance with envy, and the lieutenant general of Wenda raised the long sword in his hand: "Sons, speed up the pace, as long as you take the Zhou army, you can all become cavalry." ”

Although Goguryeo occupied the plains east of the Liao River, but at present there were only tens of thousands of cavalry in the country, and when they heard this, the infantry were greatly encouraged and ran away, and the treatment of the cavalry was several times better than that of the infantry.
