The sky is blue and the grass is as green as water. A white tent is open on the green hillside. Hundreds of guards are walking around to protect the safety of the tent.

Inside the large open curtain, Xu Kang was wearing a silk dress as smooth as a woman's skin. He was half lying on the soft and thick carpet, squinting and quietly enjoying the breeze, the green grass, and the sunlight.

Gong Yinglian and Ci Mei were accompanying them, and they were leisurely eating snacks, chatting, and laughing from time to time. Both of them had changed into light women's clothes and looked particularly charming.

In the past few days, Yang Yi has managed Da Di City in an orderly manner. Xu Kangle took some time off from his busy schedule and took Gong Yinglian, Ci Mei and a group of guards everywhere to explore, go out and have a look at the scenery around Da Di City.

full.

He has become more and more lazy these days. Even when he walks, he has to rely on civilians to carry him in his specially made sedan chair.

Every day, under the protection of the guards, I tease Gong Yinglian, stimulate the plum blossoms, and take a look at the scenery and appreciate the original style of Liaodong. It is really a feast for the eyes, and a life that will never be changed by gods.

In the past few days, Xu Kang had almost admired the surrounding environment of Dadi City, and Xu Kang was considering whether to go further and explore the primeval forest.

At this moment, a horse was speeding towards us along the path.

The knight on horseback rolled his saddle and dismounted outside the tent, and quickly entered the tent under the guidance of the guards.

"Report to the deputy commander, Cheng Shuai has an urgent message delivered."

Xu Kang sat up immediately and said, "Send it up."

Ci Mei stepped forward and took the envelope, then handed it to Xu Kang.

Xu Kang unfolded the letter and read it carefully. His face suddenly turned cold and he ordered: "Get your horses ready immediately. I want to rush back to Xiangping as soon as possible."

Seeing his serious look, Gong Yinglian couldn't help but ask: "What happened? You are so anxious."

Xu Kang walked out and said, "Something happened in Goguryeo. Let's leave first and tell you when we get back."

Everyone rushed back to Dadi City. After Xu Kang hurriedly said goodbye to Yang Yi, he immediately led dozens of light cavalry to Xiangping.

This time was different from when he came. Xu Kang left all 2,000 infantrymen to Yang Yi. He only took dozens of personal guards, rationing them at the standard of one person and three riders. Along the way, he changed horses without changing people, and rushed to Xiang overnight.

Pingcheng.

On the way, Xu Kang took the time to tell the curious Gong Yinglian and Ci Mei the truth.

It turned out that Goguryeo at this time actually mobilized the entire country to attack Liaodong.

After the Goguryeo army returned to the country, they did not rush to capture the Fengtian Army cavalry everywhere. Instead, they dispersed to various parts of the country to assist the local defenders in preventing harassment by the Fengtian Army cavalry.

Although this move effectively stopped the cavalry battalion's lethality, it did not pose much of a threat to the cavalry battalion itself.

Xian Yufu soon discovered the limitations of Goguryeo's move. He led the cavalry to fight in Goguryeo for half a month. When he saw the opponent's army returning, he originally thought that his good days were over and was about to retreat. Who knows?

Goguryeo actually chose this turtle style of full-line defense.

This is great news for the Fengtian Army cavalry.

So Xian Yufu decisively ordered to continue to harass the towns of Goguryeo and expand the scale of his abuse.

Like this, more than half a month passed. Until the past few days, Goguryeo seemed to be finally unable to tolerate the disturbance. It mobilized tens of thousands of troops and began to chase and intercept the cavalry, leaving Xian Yufu and others with almost no place to stand in Goguryeo. They had to

He hurriedly withdrew.

But this was not the end yet. The king of Goguryeo actually took this opportunity to issue a national conscription order, calling on all men over the age of fifteen to join the army, and launched a revenge campaign against Liaodong County.

It was only then that the senior officials in Liaodong were shocked to discover that in just a few days, the entire Goguryeo had taken advantage of the cover of the Fengtian Army's cavalry to complete the nationwide mobilization.

Now they are leading an army of 100,000 to the border of the Great Wall.

When Xu Kang arrived at the Prefect's Mansion, it was already busy.

Not caring about resting, he immediately found Cheng Yuanzhi and asked about the current situation.

When Cheng Yuanzhi saw Xu Kang's arrival, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and smiled on his face. The two of them also knew that now was not the time to be polite. Cheng Yuanzhi immediately told his deployment one by one, "I have ordered Deng Mao to lead Fengtian

The main force of the army, 20,000, went to the front line of the Great Wall to set up defenses. I hope we can stop them."

Xu Kang found the most complete map, checked it out, and said, "The defense line of the Great Wall alone may not be able to stop them."

Cheng Yuanzhi's heart tightened and he said, "What do you think we should do?"

Xu Kang did not answer him, but asked: "What is the current situation in our territory? How do the people react to this?"

Cheng Yuanzhi said: "In order to prevent chaos among the people inside the country, I have ordered the news to be blocked. No one outside knows the current situation yet."

"It cannot be blocked." Xu Kang said seriously: "This time, we will not only tell the people about the current crisis, but also double the publicity of the terror of Goguryeo. Let the people of Liaodong County know that Goguryeo is not here to rob property this time.

Simple, but to massacre the people of Liaodong County. Let them have only two thoughts in their minds, one is to follow us to resist the invasion of Goguryeo, and the other is to wait to be killed by the enemy. As long as we do this, I

I believe the people will know what to choose next."

Cheng Yuanzhi was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "Okay. I'll order someone to do it right away."

Xu Kang looked at it for a while, then drew two lines on the map, pointed to the middle area and said: "The second step is to relocate all the people here, then burn all the houses and fill in all the wells.

I want the Goguryeo army to not be able to grab a single grain of food when they come in."

When Cheng Yuanzhi heard about it, he frowned and thought for a while, then said: "This can also be done. It's just about where we have to move the people."

Xu Kang said with a smile: "I have thought about this a long time ago. We will move them directly to Tadi City this time. Although the distance is a bit far, it can help us develop the southern region. I have always wanted to move some of the people there.

We just couldn't find an excuse to go south, but we didn't expect that Goguryeo would give us an opportunity this time. This time we must seize this opportunity, not only to completely defeat Goguryeo, a potential enemy, but also to complete the layout of the entire Liaodong County.

Make it happen once and for all.”

Cheng Yuanzhi took a breath and said with a smile: "I am really relieved at this time. It seems that you have already thought of today's crisis and have already prepared countermeasures. I am afraid that the disaster in Liaodong County will depend on you.

Got through it.”
