The fleet sailed into the Liao River, on both sides of which was a flat alluvial plain, covered with endless forests, the forests were lush and inaccessible, and from time to time you could see herds of deer drinking by the river, and they looked curiously at the big boats passing in front of them, but they were not afraid at all.

The fleet continued to sail northeast with the help of the southeast wind, and gradually they saw the sight of a few hunter-made cabins scattered along the river.

Suddenly, more than a dozen people rushed out of the wooden house, desperately waving and shouting at the big boat.

"Chief, it seems to be Sui Jun!"

A soldier recognized the person beckoning on the shore, and Yang Yuanqing saw it, it was a dozen Sui soldiers in armor, they should be scouts of the Sui army.

A few small boats went down the river, sailed to the shore, and picked up more than a dozen Sui soldiers and their war horses on the big boat, and the first team was kneeling down on one knee in front of Yang Yuanqing, and said with a military salute: "Chief Qiqi, we are the scouts under General Luo, and the captain is Xiao Yannian, who is waiting here for the chief at the order of the captain." ”

It turned out to be Xiao Yannian and them, Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly: "How long have you been waiting here?" ”

"Back to the chief, we've been waiting here for three days."

The team was presenting a map, "This is the map we drew of the distribution of troops on both sides of the Liao River, please take a look at it." ”

"Thank you for your hard work, let's rest first!"

Yang Yuanqing took the map and immediately ordered his subordinates to take a dozen scouts down to rest, and he walked quickly to the command cabin, spread the map on the table, and soon found the location of the big ship.

The map is very detailed, the logistics camp of the Goryeo army on the east bank of Liaoshui, the three pontoon bridges of the Goryeo army, the town of Huaiyuan, and more than a dozen Goryeo army guard towers.

There is also the deployment of the Goryeo army, the logistics battalion on the east bank of the river has 5,000 garrisons, and there are also 2,000 garrisons in Huaiyuan Town, with this map, he can deploy calmly.

"Get me Cheng Biting Jin!" Yang Yuanqing immediately ordered.

Moment. Cheng Yanjin hurriedly ran into the cabin and bowed, "The end will be!" ”

Yang Yuanqing smiled and asked him, "Are you still seasick now?" ”

Cheng Biting Jin scratched his scalp and said with some shame: "Return to the manager." After entering the estuary, I am no longer dizzy. ”

"That's good! I've given you a task. ”

Yang Yuanqing tapped the map with his knuckles, "When the fleet is close to Huaiyuan Town, you can lead five thousand cavalry to attack the Goryeo garrison in Huaiyuan Town, you don't need to be wiped out, you have to let them escape and report the news, understand?" ”

"The last general obeys!" ……

Twilight. The sunset reflected the two banks of the Liao River like fire, in a forest on the west bank of the Liao River, Xiao Yannian led more than 30 scouts were busy preparing dinner, they had been active in this area for nearly ten days, this area was sparsely populated, there was no Goryeo army patrol, and it was relatively safe.

A bonfire was blazing, and a few hunted deer were roasting on it. The fat was fragrant, and the soldiers laughed loudly and sprinkled salt and other spices on the roast. There were also a few soldiers standing guard in the trees, on the one hand to prevent enemy patrols from spotting, and on the other hand to prevent them from being attacked by wild beasts, who had encountered tigers several times.

"Remember to put out the fire before it gets dark!" Xiao Yannian reminded everyone that everyone has been getting along for more than half a month, and they have gradually become familiar with each other.

"Captain, don't worry! The meat is grilled right away. A soldier replied with a smile.

Xiao Yannian turned his head again, he sat on a big rock, staring at the Liaoshui in the distance, he calculated the time, ten days had passed. The fleet of the Sui army should be almost there.

At this moment, the scouts in the trees shouted: "There are cavalry coming!" ”

The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and immediately picked up the water jug on the ground, extinguished the fire, and picked up crossbow arrows to hide behind a tree, and Xiao Yannian also hid behind a big tree. With bows and arrows in hand, they looked warily out of the woods, and in the distance, they heard the sound of horses' hooves, and there were only three horsemen.

Then the scout in the tree shouted, "It's our brother!" ”

Xiao Yannian jumped on the boulder and put up a curtain to cover the dazzling sunset, in the sunset, he saw three cavalry running towards this side, gradually approaching, Xiao Yannian recognized that it was three of the brothers he sent to find the fleet.

The three cavalrymen rushed to the Sui army's habitat, Xiao Yannian jumped off the boulder and stopped them, "Did you find the fleet?" ”

The three cavalrymen dismounted, and one stepped forward and said, "Report to the captain, we have waited for the fleet and brought the order of the governor." ”

"Steward!"

Xiao Yannian was stunned, "Is the chief manager also on the ship?" ”

"The fleet was led by the Captain, who gave orders to the lieutenant."

The soldier handed over an order to Xiao Yannian, Xiao Yannian opened the note and looked at it, and immediately said to everyone: "Everyone hurry up and eat, we have work to do after eating." ”……

The night is shrouded in Liaoshui, the wind is light and the clouds are light, a lonely moon passes through the thin clouds, making the Liaoshui become bright and dark, in the dark, the river is sparkling, and the slight waves beat the long pontoon.

The Goryeo army built three pontoon bridges on the Liao River with boats and planks, each about two miles apart, and was guarded by Goryeo soldiers at both ends.

In the night, five or six Sui scouts swam along the pontoon bridge, they swam to the middle of the pontoon bridge, climbed onto the pontoon bridge, each carrying three bags of oil and oil, the soldiers moved quickly, cut the leather bags with daggers, and the cat's waist ran, pouring the oil evenly on the pontoon, and smeared a part of it, about hundreds of steps.

The soldiers of the Sui Army nodded, 'Click! Click! After a few sounds, a ball of flame appeared in their hands and threw it on the pontoon, and suddenly "Boom! With a bang, the fire burst into flames, and several soldiers jumped into the water and swam to the west bank.

At the same time, the other two pontoons also burned, and the fire grew bigger and bigger, burning rapidly on the wide expanse of water, and the three long pontoon bridges turned into three fire dragons......

The fleet finally approached Huaiyuan Town, which was still twenty miles away from Huaiyuan Town, which was a central point on the map drawn by Xiao Yannian, and the logistics battalion of the Goryeo Army was located on the opposite bank of Huaiyuan Town, and three miles west of Huaiyuan Town, there were two thousand garrisons stationed.

Because the pontoon bridge was burned, the Goryeo troops on both sides of the strait were alarmed, and the Goryeo cavalry patrol could not be seen on the shore, and the sudden appearance of more than 100 large ships made them frightened, and they turned around and rushed back to report.

The fleet slowly approached, groups of Sui troops got off the boats and lined up by the river, Yang Yuanqing personally led 15,000 troops to disembark on the east bank, while Cheng Yanjin led 5,000 troops to disembark on the west bank.

An hour later, a mighty Sui army, under the leadership of Yang Yuanqing, slaughtered the logistics camp of the Goryeo army more than ten miles away.

The logistics camp of the Goryeo Army is located in a field one mile away from the east bank, covering an area of nearly 100 acres, hoarding 200,000 stone of grain and a large number of ordnance tents, as well as hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep.

Just the night before yesterday, the pontoon bridge was accidentally burned, which made the soldiers of the Goryeo Army vigilant, but they did not panic too much, after all, the destruction of the pontoon bridge was only the work of the Sui army spies, and it did not pose a threat to the logistics battalion.

At this time, the camp was in chaos, and the Goryeo army patrol found the appearance of more than 100 huge sea ships, less than twenty miles away from them, which was a huge threat.

Five thousand Goryeo soldiers stood densely on the south and west sides of the camp with bows and arrows in hand, all looking nervous, and now they still didn't know what more than a hundred large ships meant to them.

At this time, a cavalry sentry galloped up, and Lao Yuan shouted in horror: "The Sui army is coming!" The Sui army is coming! ”

The main general of the logistics battalion is named Su Ande, who is Yuan Taizuo's henchman, and he shouted angrily, "Don't panic!" ”

The sentry was so nervous that he couldn't speak, and stammered: "General, many Sui troops, nearly 20,000 people, have come down from the ship and are coming towards us!" ”

Su Ande was taken aback, and asked urgently: "How far is it from us?" ”

"Ten miles away, and we'll be there soon."

The Goryeo army hated and feared the Sui army, and the soldiers were terrified, Su Ande's first thought was to evacuate quickly, but with so much food and supplies, how could he evacuate? The logistics materials were lost, and he couldn't explain it to the young master.

Su Ande gritted his teeth, turned around and shouted: "Everyone prepare bows and arrows, you must not evacuate!" ”

Yang Yuanqing led the army to a stop two miles away, turned around and ordered the general Li Chongwei, "You Modao Army prepare!" ”

The Modao heavy infantry usually traveled lightly, each with two horses, one horse to ride, and the other horse to carry equipment, which was temporarily draped before the battle.

After Yang Sien retired due to injury, the general Li Chongwei became the chief general of the Modao Army, and this time he led 3,000 Modao heavy armor soldiers to follow the expedition to Liaodong.

The order of the governor was issued, and the three thousand Mo knife soldiers dismounted one after another, wearing heavy armor, and in a short time, a group of 3,000 heavy armored infantry had been equipped, and they held Mo swords in their hands and stood in formation.

"Brothers of the Modao Army!"

Yang Yuanqing held the war knife in his hand and shouted loudly: "Let the Koreans taste your power!" Let your Mo Dao become their nightmare, and use the blood of the Goryeo people to pay tribute to the souls of the Sui army who sleep in this land! ”

Yang Yuanqing waved his sword, "Warriors, let's go!" ”

The three thousand Mo sword army broke out with an earth-shattering shout, holding the Mo sword high, and marched towards the enemy camp step by step, they were murderous and dignified like a mountain, enough to destroy everything.

The remaining 12,000 Sui troops followed behind the Modao heavy armor soldiers, their spears like a forest, the light of the sword flickering, and the same murderous boiling.

The three thousand Mo knife army was fifty people in a row, arranged in sixty rows, the queue was neat, like a wall advancing, one by one Mo knives pointed straight to the sky, the cold light flickered, and the long knives were dense.

'Boom! Boom! The footsteps came from far and near, and inside the barracks, thousands of Goryeo soldiers stood in front of the fence, nervously waiting for the appearance of the Sui army in front.

They saw it, rows of iron-like soldiers appeared, the long blades in their hands flashed with cold light, and everyone's eyes showed a look of horror, this is an army that the soldiers of the Goryeo Army have never seen before, and the huge vibration emitted by the soldiers of the Modao heavy armor every step made their hearts almost stop beating.
