In the Linshuo Palace of Zhuo County, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty received a messenger from Silla who came from afar, the messenger was a monk, the famous monk of Silla, Master Tan Yu, who had sent many envoys to the Great Sui and was received by Yang Guang twice. ￥f，

Yang Guang sat on the soft ivory couch in the study, listening quietly to Master Tanyu's presentation.

"Your Majesty, our king is willing to send troops to assist the Sui army in the battle, for the Great Sui to capture Pyongyang, teach a lesson to the monarchless Gaoyuan, the war is over, the Silla army will immediately withdraw to Jincheng, the children of Goguryeo Jinsilk, Silla will never move, Goguryeo land, Silla will never exceed an inch."

"Then I don't understand, Silla doesn't want anything, what are you going to do with the troops?" Yang Guang asked coldly.

Master Tan Yu hurriedly clasped his palms together and saluted, "Goguryeo has always been the great enemy of Silla, and we just want to get rid of this fierce enemy to ensure the safety of the northern border, and we have no other intentions." ”

Yang Guang picked up the national letter sent by Jin Baijing, King of Zhenping, and read it, and said: "Let me think about this matter, and then reply to you, you should step back first!" ”

"Poor monk farewell!"

Master Tan Yu clasped his palms together and bowed, and slowly retreated, Yang Guang pondered for a moment, and ordered left and right: "Quickly go to Xuan Pei Shangshu to see me!" ”

Pei Ju was in the Shuo Palace at this time, and not long after, a eunuch reported at the door: "Your Majesty, Pei Shangshu is here!" ”

"Announce him in!"

After a moment, Pei Ju hurriedly walked into the study and bowed, "The old minister sees Your Majesty." ”

"As Aiqing said, the king of Silla really sent someone."

Pei Ju's spirits perked, "Are they really here?" ”

Yang Guang nodded and said, "Sit down and talk!" ”

Pei Ju sat down, Yang Guang handed Pei Ju the letter of King Jinpyeong of Silla, Pei Ju opened it and read it, and said with a sneer: "Sure enough, as Weichen expected, they are already impatient." ”

Yang Guang pondered for a moment and asked, "I'm thinking about destroying Goguryeo." The establishment of the Andong Protectorate may also prevent Silla from going north. ”

Pei Ju shook his head, "If Your Majesty sets up the Andong Protectorate, it will inevitably cost a lot of manpower and material resources to distract the energy of the Great Sui, once the imperial court is unable to control it." Silla will definitely take advantage of the situation and annex the entire peninsula, and at that time we will face a stronger and more unruly foreign regime, and Liaodong will also be in danger, so Wechen insisted on keeping the existence of Goguryeo, preferring a weak Goguryeo to be defeated than a powerful Silla. ”

Pei Ju saw it very thoroughly, the chaos of the Great Sui was coming, and once the Andong Protectorate was established. There will inevitably be a situation of inability to control, which will eventually lead to Silla taking advantage of the situation to go north, and the Andong Protectorate cannot be established, but it must be in a prosperous era.

Pei Ju also said: "It can be seen from the fact that King Zhenping sent people to express his willingness to send troops to help in the war, and they were afraid that His Majesty would accept Goguryeo's request for peace, and they wanted to take this opportunity to completely destroy Goguryeo. ”

Although Yang Guang was bent on destroying Goguryeo and establishing the Andong Protectorate, Pei Ju's strategy was very far-sighted. Yang Guang was finally convinced, but he was a little unwilling in his heart.

Pei Ju saw the hesitation in Yang Guang's heart. He smiled and persuaded: "Wechen is also very willing to establish the Andong Protectorate, but he thinks that the time is not yet ripe, and when His Majesty completely clears the turmoil in the world, the national strength is strong, and the four seas are peaceful, he will send troops to attack Goguryeo." At that time, not only Goguryeo, but also Silla and Baekje should have perished, and counties should be established on the peninsula and regarded as the Central Plains, isn't this what His Majesty expects? ”

Pei Ju finally persuaded Yang Guang. It is more in the current interests of the Great Sui to leave a broken Goguryeo to contain Silla's ambitions, and he muttered: "I am worried that the decisive battle of Pyongyang has begun, and it is too late to stop Laihu'er." ”

"Don't worry about this, in the imperial history, Cui Junsu is in the Black Bone City, and His Majesty will send eight hundred miles to expedite and pass the will to Cui Junsu, and he will read His Majesty's will to Laihu'er."

Yang Guang nodded, "I'll make a decree immediately!" ”

On the third day after the landing of Laihu'er, the adjutant general Zhou Fashang also led 15,000 men to Pyongyang City, and the two Sui armies converged on the field about ten miles west of Pyongyang City, and built a strong wall-type camp.

The camp of the Sui army was also carefully selected, only a mile from the river, and a wide avenue led to the bank of the river, where there was a river wharf built by the Goguryeos.

Although the sea ships could not sail into the inland river to dock, a large number of small boats could carry grain to dock at the wharf, which greatly alleviated the difficulty of transporting grain, grass and military supplies for the Sui army, and only needed to walk one mile to reach the camp.

The camp was made of mud and wood, one foot and five feet high, very strong and durable, with a circumference of about eight miles, like a small city, and 30,000 troops were stationed in the barracks.

The Sui army consisted of twenty battalions, with an average of 1,500 men per battalion, but in fact it consisted of large battalions and small battalions, with the large battalion having 3,000 men and the small battalion having only a little more than 1,000 men.

Jang Xuan and his sixteenth battalion were stationed on the north side of the barracks, consisting of two hundred tents, and he belonged to the left army led by Zhou Fashang.

In the afternoon of this day, Zhang Xuan was leading his men to practice spear formation in a corner of the training ground covering an area of 300 acres, and the formation of the decisive battle had been decided, and Zhang Xuan's army was organized into a left wing spear army, with an average of 900 people forming a spear phalanx, and another 100 people as sword and shield men to escort on the flank.

"Pay attention to the left and right coordination!"

Zhang Xuan rode on the war horse and shouted: "There must be no vacancy in the formation, one person is killed in the front, and the soldiers behind will immediately give me a top." ”

The soldiers shouted loudly, murderous, Zhang Xuan couldn't help nodding secretly, his subordinates had experienced two baptisms of battle, and the murderous aura had obviously become thicker, this was the real battlefield warrior.

At this time, someone from behind shouted: "General Zhang, the order has arrived!" ”

As soon as Zhang Xuan turned around, he saw a tall civilian officer standing on the edge of the training ground, who was smiling and waving his hand to him, Zhang Xuan was stunned for a moment, this civilian officer was none other than Li Jing, who broke up in the grassland.

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, he never expected to meet Li Jing here, he hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and ran quickly towards Li Jing, Li Jing could not hide the excitement in his eyes, and hurried to meet him, the two laughed and hugged each other tightly, and their hearts were full of joy of meeting the old people in another country.

Li Jing smiled and lightly punched him in the shoulder socket, "I never thought that Gongzi would actually get mixed up with the position of Wu Yonglang general, congratulations!" ”

"Why is Big Brother Li here?" Jang Hyun asked excitedly.

"It's hard to say, let's find a place to sit down and talk."

"Let's go! Go to my big tent, it's right next to it. ”

Zhang Xuan took Li Jing to his tent and sat down, poured him a bowl of water, and said with a smile: "It is because I destroyed 300,000 pieces of armor of the Turks in the steppe and solved a matter of the saint's heart, which is considered a great achievement, so the saint appointed me as a general of Wu Yonglang." ”

"I've heard it too, hey! For the sake of 300,000 pieces of armor, we almost died in the hands of the Turks, thanks to Zhang Zhongjian's familiarity with the terrain, we were able to escape, no one would have thought that the 300,000 pieces of armor were hidden in Beihai by the Baye Ancient Clan, I knew that we would also go to Beihai with you. ”

"It's just a coincidence, and I really don't know that things are hidden in the North Sea."

Li Jing smiled, "I'm just talking, in fact, whether I can find that batch of armor or not has nothing to do with me, don't you know!" I have been cleaned up by Wuchuan Mansion, not only me, but Zhang Zhongjian has also been cleaned up, which is actually a good thing, we have been free again. ”

Zhang Xuan nodded silently, he heard Chai Shao talk about the Dugu Shunji bloodline, many people will be cleared out sooner or later, Li Jing was also purged by him, he was not surprised.

"Why is Brother Li here?"

Li Jing said with a smile: "I resigned from the official position of Mayi County when I went to Kulun Lake with you, and after leaving Wuchuan Mansion, I returned directly to the Zhaojun family, because my uncle had a deep friendship with the general Lai, and the general wrote a letter inviting me to serve in his army, and I also wanted to come to the army to experience it, so I agreed, and only after coming to Zhuo County did I know that you had been ordered to go to Liaodong." ”

Li Jing's uncle is the former general Han Baohu, it is not surprising that Li Jing appeared in the army, Zhang Xuan nodded, and asked with a smile: "What position does Brother Li hold in the army now?" ”

"I am now a military staff officer, belonging to the staff of the general, and I only arrived at the camp this morning with the logistics grain ship, and the general asked me to inform you that it is your turn to train for night combat tonight."

Night combat training is what Zhang Xuan is looking forward to, but he is more concerned about the opponent he trains with, and he asks urgently: "Who is our opponent?" ”

"It's the first battalion of Yuwen Chengdu, how is it, are you looking forward to it?" Li Jing asked with a smile.

Zhang Xuan didn't know whether he was looking forward to it or worrying, he was actually conducting night training and combat with the most elite Yuwen Chengdu Department of the former army, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.

Li Jing saw Zhang Xuan's nervousness, so he patted him on the shoulder and said seriously: "Don't be nervous, training with the elite army can improve your combat effectiveness, this is a good thing, you should be happy!" ”

Zhang Xuan nodded silently, Li Jing was right, he should indeed feel lucky.

Li Jing stood up and said with a smile: "I have to go back to my life, and we will have time to talk about it in detail later." ”

"Alright! Sometimes we talk about it in detail, and I still want to ask Brother Li about martial arts! ”

"It's the purple yang halberd method that Zhang Zhongjian gave you! I've heard of it for a long time, and I'd love to see it, maybe I'll see it tonight. ”

Li Jing laughed, arched his hand and turned away, Zhang Xuan sent him out of the big tent, he stared at Li Jing's back and walked away, and suddenly a long-term expectation was born in his heart
