"Who are you?" Zhang Xuan's halberd pointed at Shen Guang and asked in a loud voice.

Shen Guang saw that Zhang Xuan captured the enemy general alive in less than a face, which made him quite shocked in his heart, he stepped forward and knelt down on one knee, "The last general is Shen Guang, the captain of Liaodong City, who is here to help the general." ”

Zhang Xuan was stunned, didn't Liaodong City refuse to send troops? Why did they still send people, and there were only dozens of them, what does this mean?

At this time, a thick smoke of jet black rolled in, choking the soldiers coughing again and again, tears and snot were choked out, Zhang Xuan covered his mouth and nose, and before he could say more to Shen Guang, he ordered loudly: "Pass my order, immediately withdraw to the valley!" ”

The fire in the valley grew bigger and bigger, and the smoke billowed out, and the whole valley was covered in thick smoke, and people could not stay any longer.

The Sui army retreated to the mouth of the valley, and the Goguryeo soldiers also fled to the mouth of the valley in groups, but they had no chance to escape, and the Sui soldiers had already surrounded the mouth of the valley, and they were either captured and killed.

The fire was not extinguished until noon, and when the smoke subsided slightly, the soldiers began to search for the enemy in the valley, and found that the valley was full of corpses, most of whom were choked by the smoke and suffocated.

This battle was very satisfying to Jang Xuan, and they completely annihilated 2,000 Goguryeo soldiers, including more than 800 people captured by the opposing general, burned to death and suffocated more than 1,200 people, while they themselves suffered only more than 10 casualties.

Such a disparity in casualties made every soldier rejoice, and the morale of the Sui soldiers was high, and when Zhang Xuan announced that the battle was over, each of them would be credited once, and a cheer suddenly rang out outside the valley.

But Zhang Xuan was not optimistic, and he received a detailed report of the operation from Chen Xu, which made him realize the mistake he had made. He shouldn't have taken the liberty of sending Chen Xu to act, he didn't know the terrain and didn't understand the other party's defense, but he thought it was a trick and did it, which was definitely a taboo for soldiers.

It should be said that this victory was a complete fluke. If it weren't for Shen Guang helping them, it would probably be the Goguryeo Army celebrating the victory now. Zhang Xuan was secretly ashamed in his heart, and at the same time full of gratitude to Shen Guang.

"I will report Captain Shen's merits to the top, I don't know when Captain Shen plans to return to Liaodong City?"

Shen Guang smiled bitterly in his heart, Qiu Mingda clearly took the opportunity to drive him out of Liaodong City, where could he go back?

He groaned and asked, "Where is General Zhang going next?" ”

"I was ordered to assemble in the city of bones, and I will bring these prisoners of war with me."

Shen Guang said with a smile: "The Black Bone City is on the Yalu River three hundred miles to the south, and the road is not easy to walk, but I have walked a few times. If the general doesn't like it, I'm willing to lead the way for the general. ”

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, he understood the meaning of Shen Guang's words, that is, he wanted to follow him, and with a talent like Shen Guang to follow, of course he couldn't ask for it.

"Captain Shen is willing to help me, it's Zhang Xuan's luck!"

In the afternoon, after a brief cleaning of the battlefield. Zhang Xuan led his troops to escort the Goguryeo prisoners of war, and under the guidance of Shen Guang, they went to the southern Black Bone City.

This Goguryeo campaign. Yang Guang did change the strategy of sending troops in the first two times, he no longer attacked Goguryeo on a large scale, but at the same time as the army gathered in Liaodong, he sent Hu'er as the former army commander-in-chief, and led an army of 30,000 to attack Pyongyang.

This way of elite troops not only avoids the consumption of huge manpower and material resources, but also is very targeted and efficient in marching. After all, Goguryeo's national strength was ten times weaker than that of the Sui Dynasty, and they could no longer support such a nationwide battle.

If Laihu'er fails, it's not too late to attack in a big way.

At the same time that Zhang Xuan completely annihilated the Goguryeo Sentinel Army and marched towards the Black Bone City, it was on the sea north of Gaomi County in Shandong. The sails cover the sky and the sun, and nearly a thousand large ships are crossing the Bohai Strait and sailing in the direction of the city of luxury.

On a five-tooth warship headed by 6,000 stones, Lai Hu'er was covered in gold and silver armor, standing on the deck with a treasure sword on his waist, staring at the sea in front of him, the sea was clear and sparkling, the wind and waves were very small, and a slight southwest wind was blowing, which was an excellent opportunity for the sea march.

Lai Hu'er was also the general of the Sui Dynasty's naval army, very good at water warfare, this time he was ordered to be the commander of the former army, naturally adopted the method of both land and water, which was also the way taken during the first Goguryeo War in the eighth year of the Great Cause, and it was proved that this sea attack method was extremely effective in attacking Goguryeo.

He ordered his adjutant general, Zhou Fashang, to lead 5,000 troops to enter the city of Wugu first, and use the city as the logistics center of the land army to attack Pyongyang in the south.

At the same time, he ordered 10,000 troops, including Zhang Xuan's subordinates, to assemble by land in the direction of Wugu City, bringing the land army led by Zhou Fashang to 15,000 people.

But this is only a land army, and Laihu'er personally led 15,000 elites to attack Pyongyang by sea, both by land and water, and is determined to win.

"Dashuai, I see the coast ahead!" Above the mast, an lookout shouted loudly.

Laihu'er was in good spirits, and hurriedly looked into the distance, and sure enough, he saw a black line, he was overjoyed, and ordered loudly: "Go to the Humble City to replenish supplies first!" ”

The city of Beiluxe, which is the area of today's Dalian, is the only city on the Liaodong Peninsula, and the bay outside the city is a natural harbor that can accommodate thousands of warships without special construction.

In the first Goguryeo War, the city was occupied by the Sui army, and became the supply center of the Great Sui Navy to Liaodong, and there are currently more than 1,000 garrisons, and the main general is the nephew of Lai Hu'er to be promoted.

The main boat slowly docked, the long board of the boat landed on the bluestone on the shore, Laihu'er strode ashore, and Laisheng, who had been waiting on the shore, hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee, "See Dashuai!" ”

"Good work!"

Laihu'er smiled and asked his nephew to get up, he glanced at the Eagle Tower on the top of the mountain again, and asked with a smile, "Is there any news from the Black Bone City?" ”

The Sui army mainly relied on eagles to deliver news, and almost every military government had a special eagle slave, who was responsible for domesticating falcons to deliver letters, and hurriedly said: "Does the marshal know a person named Zhang Xuan?" ”

Laihu'er stopped suddenly, and his surprise could not be concealed in his eyes, "What's wrong with Zhang Xuan?" ”

"Returning to the marshal, I just received an urgent eagle letter from General Zhou at noon today, Lang General Zhang Xuan found a Goguryeo sentinel army when passing through Liaodong City, about 2,000 people, he led the army to attack the enemy at night, completely annihilated this enemy army, and also assassinated the enemy's main general Yuan Wuning, General Zhou greatly appreciated."

As he spoke, he took out a roll of eagle letters from his arms and presented them to Laihu'er, who was excited and took the eagle letter and shook it open, the eagle letter was written on a thin gauze silk, and the handwriting was very small, only a few crosses.

After reading the eagle letter, Lai Hu'er was overjoyed, of course he knew that this Goguryeo sentinel army was making waves on the logistics and transportation road, which affected the preparation of the Sui army, Yang Guang ordered Yuwenshu to annihilate this army, but it was completely annihilated by Zhang Xuan first.

"It's really extraordinary!"

Lai Hu'er praised his beard and said, "I actually killed Yuan Taizuo's son." ”

"Could it be that Yuan Wuning is the son of Yuan Taizuo?"

"Of course, Yuan Taizuo's eldest son Yuan Gai Suwen, the second son Yuan Pure Land, and the third son is this Yuan Wuning, I didn't expect Yuan Gai Suwen to send his son to Liaodong City, this person has a bit of courage."

"Dashuai knows this Zhang Xuan?"

Lai Hu'er nodded, "He is an alternative in the Great Sui Army, it only took half a year from serving as a guard in the Yan Wangfu to being promoted to Wu Yonglang General, and he was appointed by the Holy Lord, he is also the nail in Yuwenshu's eyes, I personally recruited him into the front army, of course I am very familiar with him." ”

came to be promoted with a look of envy on his face, and it only took half a year to be promoted to the general of Wu Yonglang, but it took him five years to be promoted to the general of Eagle Strike, and it was because Lai Hu'er was his uncle.

Lai Hu'er understood his mood, so he smiled: "Don't envy others anymore, do your own things well, you will naturally have the opportunity to be promoted, hurry up and prepare supplies, I will leave early tomorrow morning!" ”

"Obey the order!"

Lai Sheng hurriedly ran towards the city, Lai Hu'er read the eagle letter again, he felt that he needed to remind Zhou Fashang that he couldn't give Zhang Xuan too much honor, this was the secret decree of the saint.

This time, Laihu'er served as the commander of the former army, and there were two generals on the left and right, the left general Zhao Xiaocai followed him to attack by water, and the right general Zhou Fashang was stationed in Wugu City, preparing to lead the army to attack Pyongyang by land.

After Zhang Xuan led a thousand soldiers to escort Goguryeo prisoners of war to the Black Bone City, he was warmly welcomed by Zhou Fashang, appointed Zhang Xuan as a partial general, and rewarded Zhang Xuan's subordinates.

Zhang Xuan's official position is Wu Yonglang general, but in the wartime state, the army has another general system, the main general is called the marshal, and there are left and right deputy generals, and there are tooth generals below the deputy generals, and under the tooth generals are partial generals, and then under the captain brigade commander team is the fire chief.

Although Zhang Xuan is only a partial general, because he himself is the first to lead the troops, he is under the direct command of Zhou Fashang, and there is no boss at the level of a tooth general.

In the evening of that day, Jang Hyun was training his soldiers in the barracks as usual, and after a real battle in Shenlu Town, everyone had a deeper understanding of the cruelty of the battlefield, and almost everyone realized that if they didn't want to be killed on the battlefield, they must have excellent military skills.

There was no need for Jang Hyun to urge them anymore, everyone was extremely hard into training, and Jang Hyun stood on the sidelines and watched the soldiers' training.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan unexpectedly found that there was an extremely majestic general standing not far from the school field, with black armor and silver helmets, majestic, riding on a pitch-black war horse, looking at himself coldly, Zhang Xuan recognized this person at a glance, at this time it was Yuwen Chengdu that he had once unforgettable.

What did Yuwen Chengdu come to do with himself?
