After a while, Yuan Taizuo sighed: "It's just a pity, my Liaodong army in Goguryeo has never assembled an army of such a scale, and the morale of the whole army is like a rainbow, I just want to fight to the death with the Sui army, but I will retreat after a battle, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the soldiers!" ”

Yizhi Wende smiled slightly: "Now that you have eliminated the Mai Tie Staff Department, and retreated while you are victorious, this can maintain the maximum morale, and after you go back, the baby city will be firmly held, as long as it can be delayed for a few months, the Sui army will be undersupplied, and the morale will inevitably decline!" The strong bows and crossbows of the Sui army can penetrate our wooden shield barracks, but they can't penetrate the stone city walls, only in the city, is the biggest capital we can prevent! ”

A look of resoluteness flashed in Yuan Taizuo's eyes, and he laughed: "Okay, just listen to General Otoji, but I still need to do one more thing to be able to retreat safely in front of this enemy." ”

As he spoke, he said sharply to the herald on the side: "The herald, the remnants of the whole army attacking the camp are not allowed to use bows and arrows, all hand-to-hand combat, and the corpse of the wheat iron staff is not allowed to cut off the head, I want the whole corpse!" ”

Wang Shichong's eyes were shining with tears, looking at the camp opposite, the battle had come to an end, the unyielding, full of arrow holes of the "wheat" word flag, finally fell down, and the flag guard sergeant who was holding the banner to the death had been surrounded by more than a dozen Goguryeo soldiers, slashing and spears, with more holes on his body than on this banner, with unwilling eyes, holding on to the flagpole, slowly slipping to the ground.

Next to Mai Tiecane's corpse, there were more than 100 Goguryeo soldiers, all of whom stood silently beside him, all of whom were also soldiers, although they were enemy soldiers. But the cult of warriors. It's one-size-fits-all. At least forty or fifty corpses of the Goguryeo army, which were knee-high, piled up around Mai's iron staff, as well as the iron rod beside him that had been killed to the point and the enemy's blood congealed into pieces of red and black blood clots on the staff, fully illustrated what a tragic battle he experienced in the last moments of his life.

Yuangai Suwen, who was dressed in gold armor, drew the spear in his hand from the corpse of Mai Tiecane, and this shot was a fatal blow to Mai Tiecane. The Sui Dynasty famous general's crazy counterattack at the last moment, Yuangai Suwen, who was once able to fight on horseback, retreated again and again, and finally relied on Yang Wanchun's help to stabilize his position, and pierced the iron armor of the wheat iron rod with a backhand shot, Rao is so, this is also the most thrilling battle in the life of this young general, who is known as the first warrior of Goguryeo Liaodong, which made him palpitate, and even the usually calm gun-wielding hand trembled slightly.

Yang Wanchun sighed. said: "This wheat iron rod is really a respectable enemy, and the vanguard of the Sui army has such fierce combat power. It seems that the next battle will not be easy to fight! ”

The muscles on Yuan Gai Suwen's face jumped, and he sneered: "What's the use of being fierce? Haven't we all wiped it out? Come on, take off the head of the wheat iron rod for me, hang it on this riverbank, I want the Sui army to see that even their generals are in a different place and have become ghosts in a foreign country, so that they will no longer dare to underestimate our Goguryeo! ”

Yang Wanchun shook his head: "Su Wen, don't be like this, the marshal has ordered that the head of this wheat iron rod must not be taken, he wants the whole corpse, you are violating the military order by doing this!" ”

Yuangai Suwen's eyes flashed with murder, and he pointed to the corpses of the Goguryeo army that had been piled up within a radius of several miles, and said sharply: "General Yang, don't you see, these are our Goguryeo soldiers, all of them died at the hands of this person, and my father asked us not to use bows and arrows, but to rely on hand-to-hand combat to eliminate the last thousand or so Sui troops, isn't it just to make the soldiers ruthlessly angry?" Now that the enemy army has been completely destroyed, shouldn't the head of their general be taken down and hung high to deter the enemy? ”

Yang Wanchun sighed: "Having said that, but the military order of the commander is like a mountain, you and I should not disobey it, how strict your father is, what an iron-faced person, I think you know better than me!" ”

Yuangai Suwen gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you don't dare to do it, then I'll do it myself!" At once he drew the sword from his loins, and went forward to cut off the head of the wheat-iron staff. Several generals wanted to step forward to stop them, but they were shocked by Yuangai Suwen's murderous eyes, and unconsciously took a few steps back.

Yuan Taizuo's majestic voice sounded behind Yuan Gai Suwen: "Who is so bold as to dare to openly disobey my general's orders? ”

Yuan Gai Suwen was already about to be killed, and when he heard his father's voice, he frowned, retracted his sword into the sheath fiercely, turned around and knelt on one knee, and said, "It is the last general who makes his own decisions and has nothing to do with others. ”

Yuan Taizuo said coldly: "You know that Ben Shuai's general order, why do you want to disobey it? ”

Yuangai Suwen said hatefully: "This thief is stubborn, he refuses to surrender even though he knows that he will be defeated, and here he commands his subordinates to resist to the end, killing and wounding thousands of soldiers of our army, not taking off his head, hanging high on the riverbank, it is difficult to solve the hatred in my heart, and it is difficult to raise the prestige of our army!" ”

The corners of Yuan Taizuo's mouth hooked: "So, Ben Shuai ordered to preserve this person's body, and his knowledge is not as good as that of you, this kid?" ”

Yuangai Suwen raised his head and said in a deep voice: "The last general really can't understand the intention of the great marshal, and the last general also believes that all the soldiers present can't understand the intention of the great marshal!" ”

Yuan Taizuo looked around, but saw that the eyes of the sergeants were mostly unconvinced and indignant, he nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Do you all think like this? ”

No one spoke, but silence meant everything, and Yuan Taizuo laughed: "I can't imagine that our Goguryeo warriors can only prove your courage by adding swords to a dead man, it's too sad!" ”

Yuangai Suwen suddenly stood up from the ground and said in a loud voice: "No, father, we don't want to be such a hero, but we just want to use the human head of the wheat iron rod to deter the enemy army, and also declare to them that our territory of Goguryeo is sacred and inviolable, and as long as we are here, they will never want to set foot on this riverbank!" ”

Yuan Taizuo shook his head and said, "Who said that we are going to fight to the death with the Sui army here?" ”

As soon as these words came out, from Yuan Gai Suwen to Yang Wanchun, all the soldiers of Goguryeo changed their faces greatly, and they looked at Yuan Taizuo in unison, but they didn't know how to speak.

Yuan Taizuo said in a deep voice: "Everyone listen, in today's battle, everyone fought very well, worked very hard, defeated the Sui army, killed its general, and completely achieved our purpose of sending troops this time and lining up in the Liaohe River." But now, we can no longer continue to hold here, the enemy army is large, and how effective it is, you have already seen with your own eyes, before they build more pontoon bridges and can fully cross the river to attack, our army must retreat, return to defend the cities, and rely on our fortresses in Goguryeo to continue to deal with the Sui army!
