An hour later, Chu Qing was already standing on the bow of the Donghai, without any heroic words, only full of thoughts.
Twenty-six ships and twelve large ships set sail.
There are a total of more than 30,000 people, most of whom are new recruits, and many of them have never even been to sea.
Less than half a day after setting sail, there were two more supply ships.
After flagging someone down to stop him, he learned that the situation was not consistent with what Sun Chen said before.
According to the crews of these two supply ships, the Chang army retreated to gather its forces and return to the shore. It was not like a rout. They went to the coastal camp to deliver supplies, and the supplies were delivered. As for the situation on the front line, they did not dare to inquire.
.
Chu Qing's hanging heart finally relaxed.
It's just smoke and mirrors now, but for now it seems that Huang Laosi is fine.
Cao Hu in the distance saw Chu Yuan's calm face and lowered his voice and said to his friends: "Take another shot and your Majesty will be defeated. One will pay three, a small loss will pay two, use a trick and one will pay one."
, buy it and leave."
A group of people looked at Cao Hu as if he were an idiot and quickly hid away.
After sailing for a few more days, we met many supply ships on this route, including everything.
Some of them went to the front line, and the city originally occupied by Chang's army was now under the flag of Goguryeo.
Some of them went to the coastal camp. I didn't see anything wrong, but they did gather a lot of troops.
"There should be a rout, but it's not that exaggerated. It should be a small loss and a partial rout."
Chu Qing was now considered to be half an expert, and he told Fu San his opinions and thoughts.
"Before, they occupied too much territory and did not leave much troops for defense. Now that it is winter, it is not conducive to the war. Goguryeo defends its territory and fights with high morale. If it wins a battle, it will definitely regain the lost territory in one go. Huang Laosi took the opportunity to shrink
The troops are moving step by step, what do you think?"
"What the young master said makes sense, but I just feel that there is something hidden."
"for example?"
"Our map is not detailed, and we dare not make any conclusions. However, after asking some returning sailors, the roads over Goguryeo are difficult to travel in winter. His Majesty wants to divide his troops into multiple routes to cut off the food and grass behind Erwang City. It is difficult, difficult.
If you go to the sky, if you follow your previous guesses, it is not impossible to lure the enemy out of the city, but it is of little significance unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless Goguryeo makes a desperate move and sends a large number of troops to Erwang City, the farther they chase, the harder it will be to get back to defense."
Chu Qing's eyes lit up: "It makes sense. If this is really the case, it should be defeated. It seems that the city they occupied was taken back by Goguryeo. In fact, Goguryeo picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons. The more troops it dispatched, the greater the power of the sun.
The resistance the state soldiers encountered was smaller, the door was taken back, and the bedroom was stolen, haha."
The third brother smiled slightly and felt that this metaphor was very appropriate.
Again, we don’t know much about the situation. After sailing on the ship for a few days, everyone was thinking about this matter. Judging from the current situation, this possibility is the greatest.
In fact, after all is said and done, Chu Qing is still to blame for being too impulsive.
The front line was advancing with great success. Suddenly, when they heard that Huang Laosi's side was defeated, even the second son of the Fu family was dumbfounded. His first reaction was, what kind of idiot can lose this?
Without saying anything, Chu Qing regarded his fourth brother as a brother in his heart. In addition, he had already planned to go to Goguryeo, so he set sail in a hurry. Although it was not fully prepared, it was actually quite different.
The friends didn't say anything, they didn't care at all.
…………
In the coastal camp, Huang Laosi was sitting in the handsome tent, looking at a head with big eyes and small eyes.
If the head is still on the original body, this person's name is Zhong Shangyun, a general of Goguryeo who is also well-known in Goguryeo. He came from the royal city to fight against the Chang people.
He died in a very miserable way. He was shot to death by Chen Laojiu with an arrow, and he was not shot to death intentionally.
After looking at it for a long time, Huang Laosi grabbed his head and threw it out.
"You must be a damn Goguryeo artist."
Huang Laosi pointed at Chen Yan and cursed: "I told you to run away, why did you fight back!"
"If you don't fight back, will I die?" Chen Yan had a look of dismay on his face, and he didn't know how to explain it.
Previously, General Huang Laosi had planned in detail, pretending to be defeated and retreating all the way, resisting in a symbolic way, and abandoning the previously occupied city, thereby achieving the purpose of dispersing Goguryeo's forces.
Three hundred thousand troops gathered in Erwang City. Originally, gunpowder and fire oil were useless, and it was difficult to march in winter. Lao Si's strategy could be called perfect.
As a result, the bad thing happened on the right side, that is, Chen Yan's side.
Hundreds of people in the city gave up and Sayazi ran back. Unexpectedly, the unlucky Zhong Shangyun, like his own father, gave up the city and pursued him to death with 5,000 light cavalry and 8,000 infantry.
Chen Yan's side is full of foot soldiers and he can't escape at all.
Or maybe Chen Laojiu is also a ruthless person, and later he was chased out of his mind, so he directly ambush at the entrance of a gorge, with a group of archers, thinking of shooting some pursuers to death, and then blowing up the mountain to block the road, so as to call it Goguryeo. People retreat when faced with difficulties.
Or it could be said that many things are doomed. Whoever the king of hell calls to die at midnight will dare to keep people alive until 3:30 in the morning.
God is my witness, Chen Laojiu shot an arrow without even aiming, and was shot to death by Goguryeo general Zhong Shangyun who rushed to the front row.
At that time, Chen Laojiu at the mouth of the gorge was confused.
He didn't know Zhong Shangyun, so he thought he had shot a cat or a dog to death. What made him confused was that the pursuers were even more confused than he was.
Among the light cavalry led by Zhong Shangyun, more than 500 were retainers and generals, and there were many personal followers.
According to the rules of Goguryeo, when the general dies, other relatives, retainers, generals, etc. are all buried with him.
This also led to the fact that after Zhong Shangyun's death, those younger brothers ran away directly.
They were all small bosses and middle-level generals. As soon as they ran away, the hard-working sergeants below also started running away.
Then Chen Yan achieved the achievement of driving back thousands of chasing troops with one arrow.
It's okay for Zhong Shangyun's younger brother to run away. The main reason is that these cowards don't even want Baiming City anymore.
At that time, Chen Yan faced a very disturbing decision.
Or, keep running and evacuate to the coastal camp.
But if you do this, it is equivalent to telling the Goguryeo people that there is something fishy. There is no one to defend the city. You, the Chang people, won't take it?
But if we go back and capture the city of 100 names, we will have to resort to the same old tricks again, which will be a waste of time.
Chen Laojiu was so angry that he didn't dare to bring more people, so he took 10,000 people back to Baiming City.
Then this guy seemed to be possessed by Chu Qing, and bad luck happened one after another.
Goguryeo's armies from all walks of life seemed to have made an appointment. It happened that there were 70,000 people in three groups, all of which were forced towards Baiming City.
Chen Yan was thinking about what to do when he resisted the first army. Unexpectedly, when he was about to abandon the city, the back road was blocked again, and it was blocked by two groups of people.
In the end, Chen Laojiu could only really defend the city. If he didn't, they would all die.
When Huang Laosi heard the news, his head was buzzing.
How can I not save my brother? He asked the Supreme Emperor to sit in the coastal camp, and rushed to the city of 100 soldiers with 30,000 cavalry. After killing him with gunpowder crossbows, he finally saved Mr. Chen who had his head stuck in his crotch.
Already.
The people were rescued, but the Goguryeo people, who had gathered from Erwang City into two armies and approached the coastal camp, gathered their forces together again and sent half of their men to consolidate the defense lines of the three cities on the west.
At this point, Huang Laosi's overall plan was disrupted by more than half.
The fourth man couldn't bear the statement that made him rant, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I will lead people to sneak attack on the three cities on the west side and force them back to the central army."
"You woke up in the morning with your head in bed."
Huang Laosi, who had already calmed down, immediately said: "The purpose is to defend the coastal camp. If you lead a sneak attack on three cities, can you hide it from the Goguryeo people?"
"Then what do you think should be done?"
"Damn it..." Lao Si said angrily: "According to the original plan, we will fight steadily and take back the city."
The old eunuch on the side sighed silently, these two brothers can do this, leading 70,000 people to do nothing.
Chen Yan also had an expression as if his wife and people had run away: "If I had known this, it would be better not to give up those cities to the Goguryeo people."
"you shut up!"
Chen Yan was wrong and asked tentatively: "How about we play it again."
"Why are you acting? We've used up all the corpses of the thieves. You lie there and pretend to be corpses?"
Huang Laosi cursed and became more and more angry the more he thought about it.
A tall figure walked into the tent, it was the Supreme Emperor.
After looking at Chen Yan, the Supreme Emperor cursed: "Idiot!"
After scolding, he looked at Huang Laosi, the Supreme Emperor: "Trash!"
