(Thank you Shining is me, falling, mortal dust, for the great god of willow, hb03130208, the end of the memory of the support, please collect.) )
When Li Xian gave the order to blow the horn, the soldiers didn't understand it, but Li Xian's military orders were strict, and the soldiers had learned that after the six military orders were promulgated, there was not a single ghost under the knife. Therefore, even though they were full of the heroism of fighting with Yuwenshu, they had to turn around and retreat. That's right, Li Xian didn't want to fight against Yu Wenshi and his 20,000 elite cavalry from the beginning, because it was a matter that would not get any benefits, on the contrary, it would suffer heavy losses, even if he won, what is the point?
"What should I do if the Yu Wenshi and the chase come over?"
Chen Qi'er said worriedly.
Li Xian waved his hand: "I have already asked Luo Fu and the Iron Fang Wolf to take the cavalry to the queen of the palace, rest assured, Yu Wenshi will not catch up." He's not an idiot. ”
As Li Xian said, Yu Wenshi will not really hunt down the past. Li Xian's letter actually didn't mean anything else, just to let Yu Wenshi put on a defensive posture. And the mission of the Flying Tiger spy is to fan the emotions of the soldiers and make them angry. And because of the anger of the soldiers, Yuwen Shi had to respond. From the very beginning, Li Xian didn't want to start a war with Yu Wenshi, but just let his soldiers die for the Great Sui Imperial Court. There is no doubt that this hand is quite beautifully played.
Of course, Yu Wenshi and he is not an idiot, so he will not really let the cavalry chase and kill Li Xian's men and horses, even if he can win a big victory? The way back is still very long, if the 20,000 cavalry suffers too many casualties, what will he do to protect Yuwenshu and the others to go back? Far from being an idiot, he's smart like a demon. As soon as Li Xian's men and horses retreated, he knew that he had been fooled, Li Xian's team retreated quickly and orderly, where was it like an army that Li Xian couldn't control?
In an instant, he deduced the general situation of the matter, although it was not complete, but it was not far off.
That stupid boy has big plans!
This is the first reaction of Yu Wenshi!
That silly boy...... I'm not stupid at all.
This was Yu Wenshiji's second reaction.
He chose such a path, why?
No one could answer the questions of the Bunshi.
A war that seemed almost imminent ended in such a hurry with a thunderous sound and a small rainfall. It's so rushed that it feels like it's a joke, a suffocating and speechless joke. Yu Wenshi guessed Yan Yun's intentions, but he no longer had the ability to stop Yan Yun. The young man who he once wanted to take for his own use told himself in such a way that he was not a condescending person.
After Yuwenshu's anger subsided, he also understood Yan Yun's intentions, which had to make him look at that young man with admiration. At Yan Yun's age, he could have such calculations and such schemes, which made Yu Wenshu even a little scared. is as conceited as he is, and he also knows that it is absolutely impossible for him to have such a heart at Yan Yun's age. Seeing the orderly withdrawal of the team on the opposite side, Yuwen couldn't help but sigh.
Great Sui ...... Is it really going to be messed up? Such a stunning young man, standing on the opposite side of the Great Sui, should he be sorry for the Great Sui, or should he be sorry for the young man?
At this moment, he even forgot that when he learned that Yan Yun had rescued more than 20,000 soldiers, the first thing he thought of was how to get rid of this young man after he went back. Yes, the whole army was defeated, but that young man was the only one who could come back with so many soldiers, so how could they, the generals, deal with themselves? The expeditionary force was defeated, and Yan Yun went back to rescue more than 20,000 soldiers, which is one of the few highlights in this war, but this glory does not belong to him.
Da Sui is still strong, even if that young man has 20,000 horses, what can he do? As long as they return to the territory of the Great Sui, it won't take long for the team of more than 20,000 people to be crushed into powder by the imperial army.
Xue Shixiong was also looking at the army on the opposite side that was receding like a tide, and after a long sigh, he glanced back at his son. At the same time, Xue Wanche was also looking at him.
"It's good to be back."
Xue Shixiong smiled at his son and made a pun.
Xue Wanche nodded and repeated: "Yes, it's good to come back." ”
……
……
Yu Wenshi and the team withdrew, not only them, but after the team returned to the outside of Liaodong City without danger all the way, Yang Guangyi, the emperor of the Great Cause, angrily removed Yuwen Shu from all official positions, but he was crowned as Yu Wenshi and as the general of the four Ying Yanglang, and the doctor of Yin Qingguanglu. The cavalry of 20,000 men was led by Yu Wenshi, and it was an army of its own, and it was not under the control of any general. Several other generals were punished, although Yu Wenshu and others insisted that the defeat of Sashui was all because of Xin Shixiong's disadvantage in the battle, but Yang Guang was not a real idiot, he was just too lazy to use his brain most of the time.
did not capture Liaodong City, did not complete the great cause of relieving the people from hanging upside down, but buried the most elite 300,000 soldiers of the Great Sui, which made Yang Guang very angry and helpless. The weather in Liaodong is getting colder and colder day by day, and it is no longer possible for the army to fight any longer. His Majesty the Emperor, who was extremely disappointed, ordered the class to be a teacher, and when he came, the vigorous army of the Great Sui Eastern Expedition was very lonely and withdrawn. The evacuation was very fast, so fast that it left a mountain of grain baggage outside the city of Liaodong.
Yizhi Wenqing, who had almost held on to the limit, was surprised to find that the Sui army had retreated, and had discarded enough food for a million troops outside the city to eat for half a year. Yizhi Wenqing looked at the mountain-like materials outside the city in disbelief, but he didn't dare to go out of the city rashly. Because he suspected that this was a trick by the Sui army to lure the enemy.
On the first day, he stood on the city wall and observed for a whole day, and saw no sign of the Sui army coming back. But he didn't rush to order the soldiers to move the things blocking the city gates, even if he didn't dare to leave the city easily, even if he looked at the mountains of supplies outside the city. The next day, he was still watching, and on the third day, the scouts of the Yizhi Wenqing faction, who finally couldn't sit still, went down with ropes from the city wall and checked the Sui army camp, and the scouts reported that the Sui army should have really withdrawn, and the camp was full of discarded food, baggage, weapons and armor, and the Sui army didn't even tear down much of the military tent.
So Eulji Wenqing ordered the soldiers to clean out the city gate, and at the moment when the sandbags blocking the city gate were cleared, and a large number of Goguryeo people who had been suffocated poured out of the city gate, suddenly a sky of smoke and dust rolled up from a distance, and the Goguryeo people who were still on the city wall of Liaodong immediately blew the horn, and the Goguryeo people who ran out of the city retreated in embarrassment. Yizhi Wenqing ran to the city wall and looked south, only to see an army that looked like tens of thousands of people coming from the south.
Yizhi Wende immediately ordered the city gate to be blocked again, saying that it was fortunate that he was careful, otherwise he would have fallen for those cunning Sui people.
Yizhi Wenqing, who was very proud, was in a good mood, and ordered the soldiers to bring a stool, and he sat on the city wall to see how depressed the Sui army was when the plan failed.
It's just that he found that those Sui soldiers didn't seem to be depressed at all, on the contrary, they were crazy.
That's right, this team that came from the south was the team of more than 20,000 people under Li Xian's command, because of the distance, so Yizhi Wende couldn't see the tattered clothes on those soldiers, and the flags that were even more tattered than clothes. When the soldiers rushed to the camp of the Sui army, there was an earth-shattering cheer, and then the crowd poured into the camp in a boiling motion. The few Goguryeo who had not had time to escape were chopped to pulp by the soldiers, and then the soldiers began to howl like mountains of grain and heavy wolves.
Li Xian ordered the Xiongkuang Kelp Law Enforcement Army to patrol back and forth in case the soldiers broke out into civil unrest due to looting supplies. Then he personally led the cavalry to gallop back and forth in the large camp, controlling the excited soldiers.
When the excitement calmed down a little, Li Xian ordered the army to assemble in the school field, and then asked Wang Qinian's soldiers of the baggage battalion to count the supplies.
Yizhi Wenqing was still surprised, what were those Sui soldiers doing?
……
……
Yizhi Wenqing did not dare to go out of the city, and was proud that he had seen through the conspiracy of the Sui people. And what he didn't know was that the dirty people in the Sui army camp were laughing at him for being as cowardly as a mouse. While laughing at the young people, they are happily and happily wearing their new clothes and equipment.
There were so many things discarded by Sui Jun that Li Xian couldn't help but scold his mother.
"This bunch of losers!"
Wang Qinian, who scolded before Li Xian, was already accustomed to his identity as an anti-thief, and he could finally muster up the courage to point to the west and scold the emperor for being a loser.
There were no less than 100,000 sets of brand-new Da Sui earthy yellow military uniforms discarded by the baggage battalion, as well as a large number of leather armor and weapons. More than 20,000 refugees-like soldiers suddenly changed their temperament after changing into new military uniforms, and they returned to their once majestic and mighty posture. When they ran north from Sashui, they were worried that there was not enough food to eat, that their clothes were rotten like wicker swaying in the wind, and now they were worried again, and how they could take all these things with them.
Li Xian was also worried, if all the grain baggage was transported, he would not have to think about changing the nest at all, the food discarded by the Sui army was enough for 30,000 people to eat for a long time, but he had no ability to take it all. In the end, he could only endure the pain, and did his best to bring food and baggage, especially a large number of weapons and siege equipment, and then ordered a torch to burn all the remaining supplies. Even if he couldn't take it away, he didn't plan to leave a grain of grain for the Goguryeo people.
As a result, the page in history that should have been a windfall of Gogurair people in Liaodong City was torn away by Li Xian.
More than 20,000 refreshed soldiers, their morale was greatly boosted and their spirits were full, and they hummed an unknown minor tune and danced happily one by one. At this time, Li Xian was sitting on the tall viewing platform specially built for Yang Guang, the emperor of the Great Cause, drinking fine wine, and humming songs comfortably, but no one had heard the songs he hummed.
"There are no guns, no cannons, the enemy has made us ...... There was no food or clothing, and the enemy sent him forward..."
"General, where are we crossing the river from?"
Chen Que'er squatted next to Li Xian, stuffing meat into her mouth as she spoke. Because there are so many things in his mouth that his voice is slurred when he speaks.
"Look at your little bit of interest!"
Li Xian glanced at him and said: "Originally, I asked Grandpa to take the men and horses on Yanshan to pretend to be the officials and soldiers of the Great Sui, and pretended to intercept us in Liaoshui for a while, so that the soldiers were dead set on the Great Sui, but I didn't expect Yuwenshi and himself to come to help." I have already sent someone to ask Grandpa and Master to withdraw with their men and horses first, let's wait for two more days, and then cross the river from Wuli Luocheng. ”
"The pontoon bridges used by the Sui army to cross the river have been demolished before, and the defenders of Wuli Luo City don't know our details! With this batch of grain and grass, there is no need to rush to the pastures of the ridicule to harm them. Tomorrow, you will take someone to the north to explore, choose a place, and let's build a pontoon bridge in the past! ”
Chen Qi'er burped, swallowed the last bite of meat hard, and smiled: "Okay, I'll go now." ”
The team of more than 20,000 people withdrew swaggeringly under the gaze of those unknown Goguryeo people in Liaodong City. The army went north along the Liaoshui River, stopped opposite the city of Wuli Luo, and first sent people to cross the city by small boat to find the defender of the city of Wuli Luo, saying that the army was a broken team, because it was entangled by the Goguryeo people for a while, so it was too late to withdraw, and the pontoon bridge on the side of Huaiyuan Town had been demolished, and it could only go all the way north to cross the river from here.
The Sui army retreated quickly, and Yang Guang, who came and returned from disappointment, didn't care at all whether the young man named Yanyun he once admired was dead or alive. Just as he didn't even care about this defeat, he took Empress Xiao to play along the river by water. Yuwenshu was stripped of his official position, the generals of the various armies returned to their stations, and the sons of the good families who came from all over the Great Sui had already returned home, and they were in chaos, so it was not suspicious that a broken team was left behind at this time.
And the seal letter that Li Xian handed over to his soldiers for the guards of Wuli Luo City to read was Xue Wanche's.
The Great Sui is serious and serious, as if it were a fake exchange, and it is not adulterated at all.
So, a team of more than 20,000 people returned to Dasui openly. Then he passed through Yuyang County openly, returned to Zhuo County, and entered Yanshan.
ps: The return journey is finally finished, and the second volume of Yanyun riding the wind is also over, so please watch the third volume: Heroes in troubled times, thank you for your support, thank you, by the way, please collect.
