After Li Chenghui, who retreated to White Wolf Mountain, collected the battle reports from all over the world, a dark cloud rose in his heart.

Originally, he regretted that he was deceived by Chang Miao's feint, gave up blocking Xue Boren, and chose to retreat to White Wolf Mountain, but now after seeing the battle reports from all over the country, the problem is even more obvious after marking this information on the map.

Judging from the battlefield situation, the focus of the Silk Country's offensive is undoubtedly on the eastern front of Ping'an Road, that is, the strategic road of White Wolf Mountain, which Li Chenghui guarded. From here, you can not only attack the capital Pyongyang, but also go west to the army of the country of Juanno on the western line of Hopyongan Province, and you can also go east to Hamgyong Province, and from there directly into Hwanghae-do and Gangwon-do, this method can avoid the two dangerous rivers in the north of Pyongyang, the capital of Goryeo, the Cheongcheon River and the Taedong River, and then cut Goryeo in half from the middle, completely cutting off Goryeo's connection with the southern region. However, there is an obvious illogic place in all this, that is, the powerful Silk Country Naval Army will be completely ineffective under this strategic layout.

Chang Miao had assembled such a huge group of sailors, would he just use it to cross the Yalu River? Obviously, it would be more convenient to send sailors south along the west coast of Goryeo to attack Goryeo, if Chang Miao did not choose this effective means of attack, then it is very likely that he hid this intention, and the real purpose was actually on the western front instead of the eastern front!

But now all this is just a conjecture of Li Chenghui, and there is no strong evidence to prove that although the deputy general Lu Xuan believes that Chang Miao's intentions are like this, all this has been strongly opposed by Han Wen.

Han Wen is the right-hand man of the Ayi faction, and he was appointed as the defense commander south of the domestic city, and he originally had the intention of monitoring Li Chenghui, but this time Li Chenghui disobeyed the king's order. The impromptu decision was greatly unexpected by Hangul, although he did not say it explicitly (after all, Yi Sunghui was nominally the commander-in-chief of the Goryeo army). However, in his words, he showed his dissatisfaction with Li Chenghui's abandonment of the defense of the domestic city. Fortunately, Li Meng angrily reprimanded Han Wen for his inability to hold the defense line along the river, which led to the danger of being surrounded by the commander-in-chief, and even dared to express his dissatisfaction with the commander-in-chief's behavior. suppressed Han Wen's arrogance, but on the focus of Chang Miao's attack, Han Wen strongly opposed Li Chenghui's judgment, thinking that White Wolf Mountain was the focus of the Silk Country's attack, and the other party's purpose was to make Li Cheng have the illusion of transferring troops to the west, so that he would fall into the enemy's trick.

Li Chenghui was a little helpless in this regard, the reason why Han Wen dared to be so arrogant was because the backer behind it was Ah Yizhi, or King Cui Wende. Of course, he can put on the prestige of a commander-in-chief and force him to bow his head. But now that the Silk Country has invaded the country, the news of the general's loss of peace at this time will undoubtedly seriously dampen the already low morale. What's even more worrying is that although he is the nominal commander-in-chief, the only soldiers he can actually control are those brought out of the domestic city, and most of the soldiers on White Wolf Mountain are under the control of Hangul.

Just when Li Chenghui was undecided, a news came that his eldest son Li Yong had finally come to White Wolf Mountain.

Li Cheng will immediately raise the account and let Li Yong in. Li Yongzhan trembled and walked into the tent.

Li Chenghui's eyes were on fire when he saw him, you must know that he was appointed to ensure that all the troops could cross the Yalu River, but Li Yong was negligent in his duties, and he was not at his post at the critical moment, causing the rearguard troops to be defeated by Xue Boren. This in turn threatened the rear of the entire army. Li Chenghui said with a calm face: "Li Yong, are you guilty?" ”

When Li Yong heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and said in a trembling voice: "The young general is guilty." ”

Li Chenghui sneered: "You left your post without permission and caused Your Majesty's army to die in vain, if you die on the battlefield, it will be fine." Even came back with a shy face, how could this handsome tolerate you! Come! Push it out and cut it! ”

The left and right came up and tied, and Li Yong hurriedly said: "Father Mingjian!" The youngster is indeed guilty. But there is indeed a reason for the incident, which caused the young general to be confused for a while and make a big mistake. Please forgive me. ”

Li Meng also knelt on the ground and pleaded for his brother: "Father, please listen to my brother's reason, if it is really forgivable." I also hope that my father will be lightly haired! ”

Only then did Li Chenghui nod his hand and motioned to Li Yong to explain the reason. After Li Yong thanked him, he knocked his head on the ground and said: "Back to my father, the young general was arranging defense on the north bank at that time, but I found that Li Kancheng's child was gone!" ”

Li Chenghui's body shook: "What did you say?!" ”

"He was clearly in the army when he left the city, but he disappeared when he was deployed on the north bank. Moreover, the army he was in was not there, and my subordinates did not cross the river, so they must have been delayed on the road, so the young general was anxious to turn back and look for it, not wanting to be attacked by Xue Boren's department at this time, resulting in a great defeat for our army. ”

Li Chenghui hurriedly asked, "Then you didn't find him?" ”

Li Yong shook his head: "At that time, I heard the news of the enemy's attack, so I could only rush back, but before I arrived, I met the defeated soldiers, and then I collected the remnants trapped on the north bank to inquire about the child's news. If that kid falls behind, I'm afraid he will come into contact with Chang Miao's army."

Li Chenghui closed his eyes as he listened. In the midst of a chaotic army, if a small force encounters the enemy's main force, it is obvious what will happen to it. Li Kancheng, the grandson on whom he had high hopes, threw his life away in a foreign land so inexplicably, how could he not be heartbroken.

Li Chenghui was silent for a while, and said word by word: "Li Yong, because you abolished the public for personal purposes, you will increase the crime, and you will be beheaded by me!" ”

The soldiers came up and pushed Li Yong out, and Li Meng hurriedly said: "Father's men are merciful!" ”

Han Wen has been watching white drama on the side, seeing that Li Chenghui has lost his beloved grandson, and now he wants to execute his eldest son, knowing that Li Chenghui does not really want to execute Li Yong, but Lu Xuan is his deputy general, Li Meng is his son, it is useless for them to intercede, and Li Chenghui will not have a step down if he continues to make trouble like this, it is not a matter. Taking advantage of this opportunity to sell personal favors to Li Chenghui is not a bad thing, so he stood up and said: "Please show mercy to the marshal's subordinates, now that our army is newly defeated and demoralized, it is not good to behead General Li Yong in the army, and besides, it is really an act of benefiting the enemy to execute his own general in the face of the powerful army of the country of silk, it is better to allow General Li Yong to make meritorious contributions, I don't know what to do?" ”

Li Cheng met Han Wen and said, when will you not go down the steps at this time? immediately pushed Li Yong back and said, "If it weren't for General Han Wen's intercession, I would have been killed today!" Now I will put you under the command of Lord Lu Xuan, and lead 30,000 troops to the west to reinforce the two generals Che Zhengxian and He Qianbing, and strictly prevent Chang Miao's army from breaking through from the west road, understand? ”

"Thank you for your father's grace of not killing, and thank you General Han for saving your life! The little general commanded! ”

When Han Wen heard this, his lips squirmed slightly, and he swallowed what he wanted to say. Li Chenghui took the opportunity to punish Li Yong and poached 30,000 people from him, what else could he say as soon as this military order came out? Han Wen couldn't refute it in person no matter how angry he was, and he was thinking about how to make Li Chenghui take back his order and regain control of these 30,000 people.

Li Cheng saw Han Wen's expression was different, and he already knew it in his heart, so he said: "General Han doesn't need to say much, in the dangerous place of White Wolf Mountain, even if there are 30,000 people missing, Ben Shuai will not lose his ability, but if the Western Front is missing these 30,000 people, there will be a difference between life and death, please believe in Ben Shuai's disposition." ”

Han Wen could only owe himself when he heard this: "It's all up to the marshal to deal with, and the general will understand." ”

That being said, after returning to the mansion, Han Wen immediately repaired a letter and sent it to Ah Yizhi in the capital. (To be continued......)
