Li Yunzhong gradually calmed down because of Zhao Mancheng's words. The frowning brow was also smoothed. After all, it was someone who had fought with Wu Nian.

He deeply knows that Wu Nian is terrible, and he is also cautious.

The noise coming from outside the door made Li Yunzhong's brows furrow again.

What's going on?

Soon. A personal soldier walked in from outside with Shigetoshi Katagiri. The soldiers bent down and saluted, just as they were about to speak. Li Yunpet waved his hand and let him go down.

Then a smile appeared on his face, and he bowed to Shigetoshi Katagiri and said, "Katagiri-sama." ”

"General Lee." Although Katagiri Shigejun broke in by force, he was quite polite when he saw Li Yun-pong and bowed.

"General Zhao." Immediately, he bowed to Zhao Mancheng again.

"Katagiri-sama." Zhao Mancheng returned the salute with a fist.

Immediately, Lee Yoon-ho invited Shigejun Katagiri to sit down. Katagiri Shigejun didn't hide it, and as soon as he sat down with his buttocks, he went straight to the point: "General Li." I heard that Wu Hou was unstable, and there was a plague in the army, so I was going to retire. ”

"This is a great opportunity. Illustrious feats are at your fingertips. But you don't make any move, do you want to let him go? ”

His gaze was very sharp.

"Katagiri-sama. Wu Nian is scheming, I'm afraid this is his suspicious plan. I haven't investigated it yet, so it's hard to do it. When I've done my research, it's not too late to do it. ”

Li Yunpet politely explained.

Shigetoshi Katagiri gradually became unpolite, and said in a deep voice: "General Li, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. Liaodong, the base camp of Wu Nian, is under siege by the forces of Mengyuan, Chu, and Fusang, as well as the sea and land armies. I have intelligence myself, and life in Liaodong is definitely not easy. ”

"And Goguryeo has a vast land and strong strength. And with our support. Wu Nian felt that he couldn't capture Goguryeo, so he retreated and went back, isn't it normal? ”

"Besides. The plague in Wu Nian's army has been seen by many people. How can there be a fake? ”

"The Han people's art of war is clearly written. Don't miss the opportunity. Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if you miss it, you will hate it for life. ”

Speaking of this, Shigetoshi Katagiri's face showed a look of greed. Unlike Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng, he has never fought with Wu Nian, nor has he worried about losing his country.

And as the daimyo of Fuso, he has an unusual dedication to the expansion of his territory. This time when he entered Goguryeo, he came for great feats.

How could he watch Wu Nian retreat?

Isn't this just a trip for nothing?

In his opinion, Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng's caution is as ridiculous as sheep. These two people have some skills, but they have already broken their backbones by Wu Nian.

Hum.

Li Yunzhong's face was ugly, but he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "What Katagiri said, I also know." ”

"It's just that I, Goguryeo, can't lose anymore. I can only be cautious. ”

Zhao Mancheng also stood up, bent down and clasped his fists in an extremely humble salute: "This battle." Thank you to Fuso Maharaja and Toyotomi for their great help. I also thank Katagiri for going out of his way to Goguryeo. But please also ask Katagiri to understand the current situation of Goguryeo. ”

"Hmph. No war today, no war tomorrow. Missed opportunities and fearful. Are you two still generals? Katagiri Shigetoshi's face was also ugly, Huo Ran stood up, waved his sleeves, and then angrily turned around and walked towards the door and left the hall.

Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunzhong's faces were even more ugly.

"It's really a small country, and I think very highly of myself. I have never fought against the Fuso soldiers, so I can't talk nonsense about underestimating the combat power of the Fuso soldiers. But this person is definitely not Wu Nian's opponent. Impetuous and impetuous, brave and ruthless, just a husband. ”

Li Yunpet snorted coldly, sat back and stretched out his right hand, slapping it heavily on the coffee table.

"It's a puff though. But we have to rely on his strength. Please be patient and patient. Zhao Mancheng clenched his fists, and he was also rolling with anger, but he endured it and sat back with a wry smile.

The death of the country is just around the corner, and there is no way to swallow it.

If only Goguryeo was still strong.

He can't wait to pull out 20,000 elite soldiers, and share a male and female with the family governor of the Fusang Daimyo, Zhong Nayan, and Katagiri family.

The two were very annoyed by Katagiri Shigetoshi's attitude. But for the next situation, there is no worry.

The power of the army is in their hands.

The Fusang people were guests and could not command the Goguryeo army. Can the Fusang people still attack Wu Nian with 20,000 soldiers?

No way.

As the two expected, after Katagiri Shigetoshi left in a bad mood. He didn't lead his troops into battle, he just went back and complained.

and the daimyo and military generals who came with him, mocking Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunzhong.

Like what.

"These two are really cowardly as rats, and afraid of the enemy like tigers. Not levied this year, not begged next year. So let the Liaodong Tigers become bigger. ”

"What snow unicorn, tanuki cat is better at fighting than him."

"Goguryeo has these two people as commanders, no wonder there is a disaster of the country. can only be cheeky and ask Fuso to send troops. ”

"Rats who missed their chances."

There is no such thing as an impermeable wall. These ridicules of Katagiri Shigejun of course also fell into the ears of Lee Yun-chung and Zhao Man-sung.

But both of them swallowed their anger and didn't bother with Katagiri Shigetoshi.

On the other hand, Wu Nian's side seems to intend to withdraw his troops back to Liaodong before the year. The pace of withdrawal has been greatly accelerated.

The spies sent back the news.

Wu Nianjun first went back to the Longji Department in Liaodong, and quickly marched westward, going to Nanhai Mansion to support Zhang Jin and others to fight against Meng Yuan and Chu.

This led to a decrease in the offensive intensity of the Meng Yuan and Chu states. And the pressure on Liu Zhixing in Liaodong has also eased a lot.

The situation in the provinces of eastern Liaoning has gradually calmed down.

Li Yunchong and Zhao Manchengcai didn't care about the interests of the Mengyuan people and the Chu people, as long as they kept Goguryeo and avoided the disaster of losing the country.

After getting the news, the two were not overjoyed, but they were also very happy.

Midday.

Lee Yun-chung and Zhao Man-sung met to drink in Lee Yoon-chong's private house.

In the cold winter, the two sat in the warm pavilion and ate wine. The charcoal stove is set aside, emitting a steady stream of heat to dispel the cold.

"General Zhao. This plague god is finally going to get out of Goguryeo. It's not easy. Li Yunpet raised his glass and said to Zhao Mancheng.

Zhao Mancheng also picked up the wine glass and clinked glasses with Li Yunzhong, and then took a sip. He gently put down the wine glass, nodded and said, "General Li is right. This time it wasn't easy. ”

"Still. This time, it's not necessarily all bad. ”

Li Yunzhong looked at Zhao Mancheng in surprise and said, "How do you say this?" ”

In this battle, they lost many men and horses, and lost the harvest in the fall. Grain from Uiju and Gangjie, as well as other military supplies, silver, gold, and so on.

Even the rations of the 20,000 soldiers of Fusang were also provided by them.

It can be said that it is a big loss.

"At least. This stick woke up the Manchu civil and military forces. Next. Goguryeo's military camps and water villages in northern Xinjiang and the Yalu River. Military generals and civilian officials will strengthen their vigilance. ”

"Wu Nian will never be able to break through our defenses again."

Zhao Mancheng said with a smile.

"That's right. Wu Nian has no chance. Li Yunpet thought about it and nodded with a smile.

They have always been very wary of Wu Nian, but the Manchu Dynasty is slack in its civil and military affairs. This time, Wu Nian took advantage of the situation.

Next.

Huh.

Both of them were in a good mood, chatting and drinking at the same time, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and soon drank slightly drunk.

"Bang".

Suddenly. Li Yunzhong's personal soldiers pushed the door in, and in the face of the stunned two, he panted and said, "General." General Zhao. ”

"The Fuso soldiers attacked. quickly went north, saying that he wanted to intercept and kill Wu Nian. ”
