Cao Zhang was dumbfounded.

It's not because of how majestic the city is.

Opposite.

In Cao Zhang's view, the domestic city in front of him can only be described in one word, that is, rotten.

Low walls, low gates.

If only in the Central Plains.

Such a city wall, used as a county city wall, will feel ashamed.

But here.

Such a city wall is so majestic that it is regarded as the capital of a country, which Cao Zhang did not expect.

"Hehe, Cao Gongzi, a Goguryeo person, I used to live a life of drinking blood!"

"Over the years, because of the war in the Central Plains, the Han people fled in all directions, and some Han people who fled here brought them advanced civilization, and they have achieved this, otherwise, they have been living in the forest!"

"When the former Gongsun Taishou led us to fight against the Goguryeo people, he once said that the Goguryeo people are strong not because of their civilization or their combat effectiveness, but because of their disregard for life in their hearts!"

"For the Goguryeo people, the death of a person is like the death of a cat and a dog, but we are different, because our soldiers may be fathers, husbands, and sons, so on the battlefield, our soldiers are more desperate than them......

"And the result of this is that in every battle, their soldiers can exert 100% and 200% combat effectiveness, while our soldiers, with their strength, cannot be exerted!"

Behind Cao Zhang.

Su Wuxiang, the infantry general who followed Cao Zhang, spoke.

After listening to Su Wuxiang's words, Cao Zhangshen thought so.

In fact.

On the first day of entering Goguryeo.

Cao Zhang found out.

The folk customs here are very strong.

However, because their strength was too weak, Cao Zhang didn't care much about it.

But even so.

Cao Zhang's tiger and leopard cavalry still lost three people.

The 10,000 infantry under Su Wuxiang lost nearly 1,000 people.

Of course.

On the Goguryeo side, the number of people who lost was even greater.

Thanks to the first few losses.

Later, whenever Cao Zhang and others encountered resistance, they would order suppression.

Arguably.

Cao Zhang's road was filled with a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

However, it is precisely because of Cao Zhang's thunderous means.

In the end.

Those Goguryeo people who knew about Cao Chang's fame.

The first time he saw Cao Zhang, he chose to surrender.

Therefore, Cao Zhang was able to come to the outside of the city so quickly.

……

Inside and outside the city.

Just about a quarter of an hour after Cao Zhang's army first arrived here.

The gates of the city were suddenly opened.

Followed by.

A woman in a phoenix robe walked out of the city gate with a child in a yellow robe.

In the hands of the children, a seal is held;

In the woman's hand, holding a book of bamboo slips.

The two trotted all the way and soon came to Cao Zhang and the others.

Immediately, in full view of everyone.

The two fell to their knees with a "poof".

Then he held aloft the seal and bamboo slips, and said loudly:

"Goguryeo surrenders, Goguryeo surrenders!"

"Yes, it's over!"

After hearing the words of the woman and the child.

Cao Zhang was overjoyed.

After glancing at General Su Wuxiang.

Cao Zhang first stepped forward to take the seal and bamboo slips.

Immediately, the army marched into the inner city.

……

North of Liaodong County.

Somewhere in the middle of a mountain forest.

Mu Lan and Yang Ye led their soldiers to shuttle through the dense forest.

Because the mountains are rugged.

It is not conducive to the walking of war horses.

Therefore, the army could only abandon the war horses and walk up the mountain.

But even so.

Mu Lan and the others are still unable to move an inch.

The reason for this.

It's because, in the woods.

There are a large number of Buyeo and Xianbei people.

They are like monkeys.

Quickly weave through the mountains and forests.

Occasionally, a cold arrow is fired from the depths of the woods.

After taking the life of a soldier of the Han Army.

They will quickly move their positions and find a new ambush spot.

Then wait patiently for the next unlucky guy to step into their attack range.

For this, Mu Lan has a headache.

Yang Ye was also speechless.

In fact.

On the first day that Mu Lan and the others had just stepped into this mountain forest.

They were attacked by this group.

But at that time.

Relying on the large number of people, they directly rushed to the front of Mu Lan, Yang Ye and the others.

For this kind of door-to-door performance, how could Yang Ye not want it.

So, Yang Ye gave an order.

The group of Xianbei people and Buyeyu people who were sent to the door were all killed by the divine crossbow.

This terrifying combat power directly frightened those Xianbei and Buyeyu people who were hiding in the distance.

And the result is:

Over the next two days.

Mu Lan and they did not meet any of the Buyeo people and Xianbei people again.

Until the third day.

The Xianbei and Buyeo people gave up gathering together.

Instead, choose to round it into parts.

Let one by one excellent hunters hide in the woods and release cold arrows.

The nightmare of Mu Lan and others finally came.

Just one day.

On Mulin's side, he lost 300 men.

There was even one time.

An arrow flew directly against Mu Lan's scalp.

That was the closest Moulin had come to death.

It was precisely because of that time.

Strengthened, Mullin's determination to get rid of these people.

Before coming.

Cao Zhi gave Mu Lan ten signal flares.

Cao Zhi also gave Mu Lan a map.

On the map, in addition to the map depicting the entire Liaodong County.

This dense forest north of Liaodong County is also described.

That is, the gathering center of Buyeo and Xianbei people.

By map.

Mullan can know clearly.

In this dense forest in front of you.

There are four tribes that live.

Two Xianbei tribes, and two Buyeo tribes.

And in the steppe behind this mountain.

It is inhabited by eight Xianbei tribes and nine Buyeo tribes.

Previously, Mu Lan was still a little skeptical about this map.

However, when Mu Lan and the others followed the map.

After finally discovering a Buyeo tribe on the map.

Moulin finally believed in the authenticity of the map.

And for this Buyeo tribe hidden deep in the woods.

Naturally, Mullan will not be soft.

It's all here, and you can't say it if you don't destroy it!

You know, when the group of Buyeo people attacked Xiangping City, they were very happy.

It was also this move by Moulin.

angered the Xianbei and Buyeo people who lived here.

Therefore, on the night of the day when Mu Lan and others destroyed this Buyeo tribe.

They have suffered the strongest counterattack since entering the dense forest.

When a person is blinded by anger, he loses his mind.

The same is true of this group of Xianbei people and Buyeo.

Although that night, they sent out a lot of soldiers.

But they also lost the most people!

It was because of that night that they were so demoralized.

And Mu Lan, on the other hand, took the opportunity to make a big move.

Directly put this dense forest, the tribes of the Buyeo people and the Xianbei people.

All destroyed!

At the same time, in order to ensure that there will be no more enemies in this forest.

After Mu Lan and the others walked out of the dense forest and came to the grassland.

Mullan directly ordered to set fire to the woods.

At this time, the season is late autumn.

The mountains are littered with dead branches and leaves.

Therefore, Mu Lan's fire can be described as a stroke of genius.

As soon as the fire started, all the Xianbei people and Fuyu people who were hiding in the forest were burned out.

Of course, there are also those that have not come out.

But it doesn't matter anymore!

Because, under such a fire.

There are no living beings at all, and they can escape.
