The consciousness of the disciples of the generals is still very high, and those who have been the commanders know that leading the army to fight is not only a matter of arranging troops and strategizing, but also interpersonal relationships and human sophistication.

Therefore, qualified commanders know that in addition to strict military law and robe feelings, the generals under their command must also know how to pay benefits.

Historically, when the army breaks the enemy city, the commander usually orders the slaughter of the city, which includes looting, which is actually a kind of dedication of the commander to the soldiers under his command.

The soldiers were motivated to fight only when they grabbed their possessions and started fighting, knowing that they were fighting not only to serve the country and the Son of Heaven, but also for themselves.

On the map of the heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, all the famous generals who have led the soldiers have done this, including Li Tao.

During the Zhenguan period, Li Tao's operation was that when Li Shimin conquered Goguryeo, Li Tao took the initiative to ask for the lives of the soldiers under his command, and asked Li Shimin to agree to let the soldiers slaughter the city and plunder.

And Li Shimin actually agreed, so the three armies cheered and cheered, and the morale of the whole army was like a rainbow.

Since then, the commander has paid benefits to his soldiers in various ways, as if it has become a traditional virtue of the Tang military, which has been passed down from generation to generation.

Now the same is true for Li Qinzai and Xue Ne.

After the brothers agreed, they reached a consensus, and each took out 30,000 guan and distributed it to the generals under their command.

Seeing that Xue Ne understood the righteousness so well, Li Qinzai was very pleased, and he decided not to pursue Xue Ne's secret possession of Silla maids in the camp tent, and exempted him from a military stick as compensation.

After all, Li Qinzai also secretly hid a little Baga, and he didn't seem to have much confidence to punish others.

…………

After the army rested for two days, Li Qinzai ordered the camp to go north.

Before dawn, a group of scouts rode away from the camp on fast horses, and the men of each battalion began to bury pots and cook food, and the men of the rear army counted the baggage and loading carts, and the war horses were also fed with forage.

After the hour, with the shouts of the generals, the soldiers of the whole army set out from the camp.

From Songsangang to Cangam Fortress, the army needed to bypass Pyongyang, first go north and then turn west.

This section of the road is not easy to walk, in addition to the possibility of encountering enemy snipers along the way, what is more troublesome is the endless winding mountain road, the war horse is difficult to walk, all on foot.

The biggest reason why Xue Ne made this great achievement was that he walked too hard, and he was reluctant to work hard in vain, so he robbed the village by mistake.

If you ride a horse, maybe this credit will not be related to Xue Ne.

As soon as the army set out, the direction of Pyongyang City reacted quickly.

The Goguryeo army sent scouts to find out the direction and purpose of the Tang army's march, and the scouts of the two armies met in the field without accident, so it was another fierce battle.

At sunset, the whole army was encamped, and the enemy troops in Pyongyang finally retreated.

After hearing the scout's report, Li Qinjae thought for a long time, and gradually smacked out the thinking of the lord of Goguryeo.

Now Goguryeo is at a disadvantage in fighting on the north and south fronts, of which the northern part of the army is the focus of Goguryeo's defense, and Li Qinzai's troops and horses belong to the partial division, which will cause a certain containment to the Goguryeo army, but it will not be fatal.

Now that Li Qinzai's troops are marching north, it is not a bad thing for Goguryeo, if the two Tang armies meet, Goguryeo will be able to concentrate all its troops and horses for defense, and there is no need to divide the troops to the left and the right.

Therefore, the lord of Goguryeo knew that Li Qinjae was going north, and he did not transfer troops from Pyongyang to snipe, and he was probably happy to see Li Qinjae's troops leave the area of Pyongyang City, after all, such a delicate person as the lord of the country needed a sense of security.

After all, the mountainous and rugged areas were all on foot, and the army could only walk more than 30 miles a day.

There are still more than three hundred miles away from Cangyan City, and there are more and more news from the scouts. Among them, they also encountered two enemy snipers, and after being detected in advance by the scouts, Li Qin sent his soldiers to destroy.

The march along the way was not entirely mountainous, but also passed by some small towns and bazaars, and after the generals under his command asked for orders, Li Qinzai acquiesced to the actions of the soldiers.

So the nightmare of these towns and bazaars came, the soldiers of the Tang army crossed the border like locusts, and everywhere they passed, there was no grass, men, women and children were killed, and after the Tang army had seized food and property, they set fire to the houses, and finally walked away.

Li Qinzai doesn't think there is anything wrong with the soldiers, this is war, and war is often built on the basis of abandoning morality, who has ever seen a polite fight between the two sides?

Kill all that can be killed, grab all that can be robbed, and after killing and robbing all of them, a fire will wipe out all traces of the existence of the enemy country, and this is what war should look like.

After marching for a few more days, the army was only fifty miles away from Cangyan City, and Li Qinzai ordered the whole army to camp.

That night, the scout brought information about Cangyan City.

The Goguryeo army inside and outside the city was the only one that was hostile to each other, and the defense in the city was the royalists loyal to the Quanboys, and the outskirts of the city were ...... Rebel thieves?

What Li Qinzai has to do is to rescue the royalists and kill the rebellious ministers and thieves.

The number of soldiers and horses sent by the royalist in the city is unknown, but there are many rebellious ministers and thieves besieging the city, about 20,000.

Obviously, the usurper Quan Nanjian is very jealous of this brother, and in the current situation of the great enemy, he must also allocate 20,000 soldiers and horses to surround Quan Nanjian, and he must put his brother to death before he is willing, otherwise the throne will not be stable.

After hearing the scout's report on the general situation of Cangyan City, Li Qinzai fell into deep thought.

Without waiting for Li Qinzai to come up with a specific plan to relieve the siege of Cangyan City, he listened to the report of the tribe, and someone outside the tent asked to see him.

The name of the person who came was Quan Xiancheng, and he was the son of the spring boy.

When Quan Nan was chased and killed by his usurping brother, he sent his son Quan Xiancheng to surrender to Li Tao and ask for help.

Quan Xiancheng is a young man in his twenties, with a classic North stick cake face, and after entering the handsome tent, he was respectful, and without saying a word, he paid a big salute to Li Qinzai, and he could speak human words when he opened his mouth.

"Quan Xiancheng, the son of Goguryeo's abandoned ministers, visited His Excellency Li County, the Tang Dynasty."

Li Qinzai smiled and personally helped him up, and always had to be polite to the powerful people of the enemy country who surrendered, and the friendship between the two countries has a long history.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of the King is exempt."

If Quan Boy had not been usurped, the Quan Xiancheng in front of him was indeed the prince of the king, and Li Qinzai still called him by this title, which shows that the Tang Dynasty still recognizes Quan Boy's orthodox status as a king.

Izumi got up gratefully.

Li Qinzai didn't say much nonsense, and asked straight to the point: "Cangyan City has been besieged for many days, has the enemy army outside the city attacked the city?" ”

Quan Xiancheng said in a low voice: "After the foreign minister asked the Tang Dynasty for help, he rushed back to the vicinity of Cangyan City, and has been wandering around to observe, Cangyan City has been attacked four times in the past few days, and the defenders in the city are tenacious and tenacious, and they have repelled the attack of the traitors. ”

Li Qinzai hummed and asked again, "The one who is besieged in the city...... Are you sure it's your real father? ”

Quan Xiancheng raised his head abruptly, revealing a shocked expression: "Of course it's my father!" ”

"Your expression is a bit intense, it doesn't matter if it's not, I'll still save it."
