Chapter 152: The Way Home (6)

When Yu Wenshi and came out of the emperor's palace, it was already the middle of the night. To tell the truth, he has been waiting for the day when His Majesty summons him. Because, not only His Majesty, but he has not received a letter from his father Yu Wenshu for a long time to report his safety. This can only show one problem, that is, the back road of the army has been cut off, and all the news cannot be sent back, whether it is a war report to the imperial court or a letter to the family.

Yu Wenshi was already impatient, but without His Majesty's will, he didn't dare to leave the camp privately, besides, he didn't have the military power in his hands, what could he do when he went out of the camp?

So he had been looking forward to the day when His Majesty would find out that the expeditionary force had lost contact, but His Majesty the Great Sui Emperor, who had not had enough fun in Wanghaidun, only stayed outside Liaodong City for less than ten days, and after the army led by Yu Wenshu was drawn, the emperor also took the six armies of the Son of Heaven to Wanghaidun again to see the latest auspiciousness. This time, it is said that a three-legged golden crow appeared in Wanghaidn, stayed for three days and flew away, and also dropped a golden feather.

Emperor Yang Guang of the Great Cause rushed to Wanghaidn to see the three-legged golden crow Mao, and he did not return to Liaodong until three days ago. As expected, His Majesty the Emperor was furious when he saw that Liaodong City had not yet been conquered, so he beheaded three Lang generals who were "unfavorable for attacking the city" in one go, and then ordered millions of people to pile up dirt and move forward, and piled out a Yuliang Avenue several zhang wide outside Liaodong City, and ordered the soldiers to attack the city wall along Yuliang Avenue. It's just that the Goguryeo people divided the city wall into small sections with sandbags, and even if they attacked the city wall, they could not expand the occupied area at all, and the soldiers on the city wall could only attack in a small area, and they were soon killed by the Goguryeo people with feathered arrows. Some people tried to jump from the city wall into the roofs of the houses in the city, but the houses under the city wall had been demolished, and a deep ditch two zhang wide was dug in the city wall, and all the Great Sui soldiers who jumped in were smashed into meat cakes.

After the emperor returned to the Sui army camp outside Liaodong City, he killed a few people resolutely, and then came up with an ingenious way to lay a siege method such as a Yuliang Avenue, and then took his mind away from the battlefield again, and took Empress Xiao to the Liaoshui to fish every day, completely ignoring military affairs. It was as if Yu Wenshu had forgotten about the expedition with an army of 300,000 people.

In fact, he really forgot. If it weren't for a nightmare in the afternoon, Yang Guang probably wouldn't have remembered that Yu Wenshu had been walking with the people for a long time.

The Emperor summoned Yu Wenshi and asked a very ridiculous and confusing question. This made Yu Wenshi a little angry, but he couldn't get angry when he saw the sincere concern in His Majesty's eyes.

Yang Guang asked: "Does Yuwenshu have any news for you?" ”

Message!

At that time, Yu Wenshi was almost angry when he heard this.

The expeditionary force has been out of news for a month, does the emperor think that his father has no time to write a war report, so he has time to write a few letters back home?

Yu Wenshi replied very seriously that there had been no news of his father for a month. Yang Guang sighed and said, "Even if he is in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, doesn't he even have time to write a battle report?" ”

Yu Wenshi and his heart was sad, and he said that His Majesty is really old.

"I will give you 20,000 horses, and you can follow the route of the army's attack to find it and see ...... What happened. ”

Yang Guang said slowly.

Your Majesty is not confused!

Yu Wenshi and suddenly woke up, he just ...... He just didn't want to believe that the expeditionary force had been defeated, and he didn't want to believe that his father's war report would not come back, but he would rather believe that his father was in a hurry to make meritorious service and forgot to write a war report, and he would rather believe that the army had taken Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, Your Majesty...... Your Majesty is unwilling to think that the return of the army has been cut off.

"Obey orders!"

Yu Wenshi and bowed.

Yang Guang nodded and said, waving his hand as if he was very tired: "When you see Yu Wenshu, you ask him for me if Gao Yuan is a minister." ”

Yu Wenshi was stunned, and then leaned down and knelt down: "Thank you, Your Majesty Hongen!" ”

His heart was turbulent, it was already this time, His Majesty was still thinking about my father, and he was still thinking about my Yuwen family! Ask your father if Gao Yuan is a minister, this is undoubtedly excusing his father!

"Go, I'm tired."

Yang Guang waved his hand.

Yuwen Shu bowed down and retreated from the palace, and ordered 20,000 horses overnight. With the emperor's will, he could choose all the elite soldiers, and he was worried about the safety of Yuwenshu, so Yuwenshi and insisted on taking out 20,000 war horses from Feng Shiji, the secretary of the military department, with hundreds of generals and 20,000 cavalry troops, and set off immediately with supplies early the next morning.

On the galloping war horse, Yu Wenshi's face was solemn, but his heart was anxious and uneasy: Father...... Wait for me!

……

……

A few dark shadows quietly came out of the woods, poked their heads out and looked left and right to make sure no one noticed, and then followed the path by the side of the fortress to the wall, a leader-like person gestured, and several other people nodded and quickly separated. In the night, these people in black clothes looked so weird. They were all very good and sturdy, and they were like apes in the dark, and a few of them quickly climbed up the wooden watchtower, while the people on the watchtower of the fortress were still asleep, not knowing that death was coming.

The man in black climbed up the watchtower with a light movement, and after flipping inside, he glanced at the sleeping sentry. The black-clad man sneered at the corners of his mouth, crouched down to cover the sentry's mouth, and stabbed him in the neck. The blade swiped back and forth in his neck a few times, and the sentry kicked his leg a few times before his body gradually weakened.

Four or five men in black climbed down the watchtower and up the walls of the fort. There were no guards on the wall, only a small patrol passing back and forth. After the villagers with torches walked over the wall, the man in black took out a rope from his bosom and tied it to the wall and threw it into the fortress, and then he slid down the rope.

From climbing the city wall to kill people to entering the fortress, it took only five minutes. It can be seen how good these black-clothed men are, they ...... It was the Flying Tiger Army under Li Xian.

After breaking out of the siege from Sashui, Li Xian deliberately formed two teams and supplemented one team. The two teams formed, one was Wang Qinian's baggage battalion, and the other was a 1,000-strong elite soldier carefully selected from the 23,000-strong infantry team and handed it over to Xiongkuohai, who trained the troops and maintained military discipline. This thousand-strong contingent was turned into a law enforcement force by the soldiers. The soldiers of the law enforcement army all use heavy weapons such as Mo knives or broad-backed ringed broadswords, and Li Xian has high hopes for these thousand people.

As for the team that replenished it, it was the secret spy Flying Tiger Army under him. When the Flying Tiger Secret Spy was established, there were only fifty people, and that was because the number of Yanshan thieves was too small, and the team of 1,200 people really couldn't select too many shrewd and capable soldiers, and the Flying Tiger Secret Spy was extremely valued by Li Xian, and it was better to have a shortage of personnel than to overuse it. Now, he can select personnel from a team of more than 20,000 people, and the Flying Tiger spy has been greatly replenished.

Today's Flying Tiger Secret Spy is already a strong team of more than 400 people. The personnel of the Flying Tiger spies are not necessarily elite soldiers who are good at fighting, and their mission is to spy on intelligence, not to go into battle to kill the enemy. Of course, part of the Flying Tiger spy is to infiltrate and assassinate.

The black-clothed men who infiltrated a Goguryeo fort in the dark night were the best people in the Flying Tiger secret spies.

Sliding down the rope from the fence, the lead spy made a few gestures, and the other people immediately dispersed, monitoring the surrounding movements. These few of them are all veterans brought out by Li Xian from Yanshan Village, so they have a tacit understanding with each other. The two men crept up and stabbed the night guard at the gate of the fort from behind with their mouths, and then quickly rushed over and pushed the gate of the fort open from the inside.

After pushing open the door, the spy leader took a whistle from his bosom and put it in his mouth, and blew a few short but sharp sounds.

The whistle fell, and countless soldiers of the Great Sui Mansion rushed out densely from the woods a few hundred meters away from the opposite side of the fortress!

……

……

The fortress of this small Korean tribe was captured smoothly, and the situation was completely controlled with almost no casualties. There were not many men left in this fortress, and most of the men followed the leader of this small tribe to hunt down the rout of the Great Sui. There were less than 300 men left in the fort, and more than 100 of them were old people and children.

After the soldiers of the Great Sui Mansion stormed the fortress, no one ordered them not to kill, and of course, no one instructed them to kill, but after half an hour, all the men who could lift the steel knife were cut off from their heads. The resistance of the Goguryeo people was very strong, and women and old people took up wooden sticks to fight against the soldiers of the Great Sui. But no matter how strong the resistance was, they couldn't stop the elite soldiers with high morale.

When Li Xian entered the fortress, about 2,000 Goguryeo people, most of whom were women, had been driven and gathered in an open field. The soldiers of the Great Sui have already found the granary, and Wang Qinian is taking the soldiers of the baggage battalion to count.

"General Yan, what about these Goguryeo people?"

Xiong Kuohai asked in a low voice.

If he hadn't entered the fortress with the law enforcement army, it would be impossible to say that the soldiers of the Great Sui had killed most of the Goguryeo people at this time. Even when the law enforcement forces entered the fort, hundreds of Goguryeo women were hacked to death. For the Goguryeo people, there is nothing that the government soldiers of the Great Sui cannot do now. The previous forts were too small, and when the fortress of only a few hundred people was basically breached, all the people were killed. After all, there were more than 2,000 Goguryeo people this time, so Xiong Kuohai had to come and ask for his life.

Li Xian glanced back at Dugu Zhen, and then at Xue Wanche.

"General Xue, General Dugu, what do you think of these Goguryeo women and children?"

Dugu Zhen looked at Xue Wanche and said with a smile: "General Xue, what do you think?" ”

Xue Wanche opened his mouth, glared at Li Xian and Dugu Zhen, and said in his heart that these two fox-like cunning guys actually handed over the problem to me. However, Xue Wanche was not a fool, he thought of a countermeasure as soon as his eyes rolled.

"General Yan, now that you are the commander of the army, you should make a decision on this matter."

Li Xian was dumbfounded, and then smiled and said: "Let's count the grain first, and then take away all the baggage that can be used." Clothes, quilts, anything useful, leave nothing behind. ”

"The Mighty Sea"

"Subordinate in"

"You first take the law enforcement army to patrol, and don't touch those Goguryeo people for the time being. After the food and baggage were cleaned, I consulted with the two generals before making a decision. ”

"Subordinates obey!"

Xiong Kuohai took the order and left, and Wang Qinian trotted over with a cheap smile.

"General, this time I touched a big fish, the forts I fought two days ago have no food at all, this big fort seems to have at least five or six thousand people, just now my subordinates looked at it, the food is at least enough for us to eat for ten days!" It's really developed this time, haha! ”

Li Xian chuckled and said, "Rest in this fortress tonight, and you will take someone to count all the grain overnight." ”

"Subordinates obey!"

Wang Qinian nodded with a smile, and then trotted away.

This time, there was a big nest of Goguryeo people, Dugu Zhen and Xue Wanche were also very happy, the team had been walking north for six days, and if they could not find the granary of the Goguryeo people, the team might run out of food. Fortunately, their luck is not bad, this big fortress is the place where the Goguryeo people have stored grain for hundreds of miles in the vicinity.

"Anzhi, you really don't plan to kill those Goguryeo women and children? If we leave them, as soon as we leave, they will run to Echiwende and tell us what we are doing. It was not easy to get rid of the pursuers, and the team could not be encircled again just because of a few Goguryeo people. ”

Xue Wanche frowned and asked.

Li Xian shook his head, and said in response to the question as he walked outside the fortress: "I won't spend the night in this fortress tonight, two, I wish you a good night's sleep tonight." ”

Xue Wanche was still about to do something, but he was pulled by Dugu Zhen.

Dugu Zhen chuckled and asked, "Have you forgotten the six military laws he announced earlier?" ”

"Those who disrespect orders, kill!"

"Cowering, kill!"

"Those who fail to rescue are killed!"

"Fellow fighters, kill!"

"Delay the fighter, kill!"

"Waste of food, kill!"

Dugu Zhen looked at Xue Wanche and smiled: "Still don't understand? ”

Xue Wanche slapped his forehead and said, "There is no rule on whether you can kill Goguryeo and capture the people!" ”

Dugu Zhen walked slowly to the outside of the fortress, and said as he walked: "I'm sleeping outside tonight, what about you?" ”

"You and I should talk at night!"

Xue Wanche said with a smile.

Dugu Zhen suddenly turned around and said, "You should send someone to call Shangxiong Kuohai, just say that I still have a few pots of spirits here." ”

Xue Wanche laughed.

ps: I stayed up all night coding words, just to promise everyone to keep three more in the past few days, the speed of my code words is not fast, but it is not a big problem to produce three chapters in fourteen or fifteen hours. But I forgot that the fifth had already made an appointment in the hospital, and I still had to go to Yanjing. And there is a recommendation on the fifth, and there is no chance to recommend it after the change, so I can only stay up late, it's really uncomfortable, and my whole body aches. Wishing you all health and happiness.
