Just as Zhu Mingyuan expected, a few days later, the Goguryeo army came to the city.
Whether it's true or false, you still have to kill the enemy.
Huang Laosi likes to kill enemies.
The fourth child doesn't like the status of emperor, at least not at this moment. He prefers the status of commander-in-chief.
The Son of Heaven is also an emperor.
I wonder who else in the world has greater power than the emperor.
In Zhongzhou, which country is more powerful than Chang Dynasty?
As the emperor of the most powerful country in Zhongzhou and a former general, how could Huang Laosi not think about the expansion of territory day and night?
For countless days and nights, Huang Laosi in his palace, and Chang Chengyou day and night, fantasized about returning to the battle formation, charging left and right with a three-legged war horse, and beheading people with a big flag.
The enemy general was enjoying the roar of the mountains and the tsunami.
Compared to sitting on the dragon's throne, this is the life Huang Laosi wants.
In his sleep, the sound of war horses and fighting, supreme power and intrigues are intertwined in the dream.
So Huang Laosi ran out of the capital and came to Goguryeo.
Because he knew that if he didn't sneak out, his dream would be flatly rejected by the ministers.
On the city wall, Huang Laosi was still wearing a bright red cloak and golden armor like a heavenly soldier.
Thick blood soaked the muddy snow.
The cold wind accompanied by the strong smell of blood lingered on the tip of Huang Laosi's nose.
This was a smell that intoxicated him, and the thoughts of Emperor Chang Chengyou of the Dachang Dynasty finally returned to the battlefield.
"Throw stones, throw arrows."
These four words are both the words of the emperor and the command of the commander-in-chief.
The boulder, which was slightly larger than the millstone, was thrown towards the enemy formation.
Locust-like arrows blocked the scorching sun.
The smell of blood became even stronger.
The sun shone on Huang Laosi's stern face, and the fierce siege battle entered a fever pitch. Tens of thousands of Goguryeo soldiers rushed towards the city wall.
Bicheng has a moat, and the water has long since frozen, and there are countless corpses on the ice.
The pervasive viscous blood wanted to drown the corpses and turn the moat into a red blood pool.
Zhu Mingyuan, dressed in military uniform, held a giant shield, ready to defend Huang Laosi from stray arrows at any time.
Sun An is on the right, holding the emperor's sword in both hands.
The ordering troops knelt on one knee and waited for the fourth son to issue the military order.
As time passed, there were more and more corpses, and fewer and fewer arrows were shot from the city.
Huang Laosi did not use gunpowder, let alone kerosene.
It’s not that it’s not necessary, but it’s just to create an illusion for the Goguryeo people.
This illusion would cause the Goguryeo army to suffer over 10,000 losses in battle.
Finally, some Goguryeo soldiers climbed up using the siege ladder.
The fourth child just glanced sideways and turned his attention to the battlefield again.
As he expected, the leader of the Goguryeo sergeants saw that the gunpowder and fire oil had not appeared for a long time. After several trials, he finally "confirmed" that the Chang army had no excess inventory. The right wing joined the central army and invested a large amount of troops.
Arriving on the battlefield.
Many palace guards have already grasped their swords and are ready to rush to various parts of the city wall to assist in defense.
Huang Laosi remained calm and noticed that Zhu Mingyuan's expression remained the same, with some admiration on his face: "No wonder the emperor ordered you to be in charge of Taizhou. Yes, as a general, even if Mount Tai collapsed, his face did not change, but he has a bit or two of my demeanor back then."
Zhu Mingyuan lowered his head and said nothing, unable to answer the question.
It's not a matter of whether Mount Tai will collapse or not, but that he knows that the fourth child is wilting.
Sure enough, after seeing the Goguryeo sergeants all rushing towards him like a tide, Huang Laosi nodded lightly.
Sun An and a group of messenger troops had been waiting for a long time and ran towards the city gate howling.
The timing was just right. When almost all the siege ladders were fixed to the bottom of the city, almost when the Goguryeo general thought he had finally captured the city, when the Goguryeo sergeant thought victory was within grasp, a shocking loud noise reached everyone's ears.
middle.
Then there were monstrous flames and billowing smoke.
Huang Laosi had a contemptuous smile on his face, and there was no point in looking at him any longer.
He spent two full hours on the city wall, waiting for this moment, the moment when he could kill the most enemies in the shortest time.
Even the scales are biased.
When it fell towards Goguryeo, it was so slow, as if there were thousands of resistances.
When he fell towards Chang Jun, it was like a taut spring falling suddenly.
Tens of thousands of Goguryeo soldiers were torn to pieces, rolling and howling, and fled in a panic.
Bicheng defeated Goguryeo's partial army, which numbered 60,000 people.
Just defeat them, not kill them all.
If it were any other general, he would immediately open the city gates to pursue and defeat the enemy.
Huang Laosi did not do this. Instead, he ate in the city lord's mansion, took a lunch break, got up, washed his face, and then gave the order to pursue and defeat the enemy.
This is why Huang Laosi can be called a famous general.
If you had just opened three gates to chase down the enemy, you would have killed them all the way, but in fact you would not be able to "maximize your benefits."
The fleeing enemy troops were scattered in all directions, and Sayazi was running for his life everywhere, just like a pile of scattered sand.
But if there is no pursuit, the generals will gather the remaining troops and reunite the scattered troops.
Because their physical strength has long been exhausted by fleeing all the way, the generals will let them rest where they are.
At this time, Chang's army catching up could not only kill more enemy troops with gunpowder crossbows, but also steal more baggage and food.
At dawn the next day, the cavalry chasing the enemy came back and made a lot of gains.
This is good news, but the bad news is that Goguryeo's army on the right is coming, and Bicheng will face another defensive battle.
With at least 120,000 troops, a battle to defend the city can easily turn into a bitter battle, and a bitter battle can turn into a bloody battle.
Huang Laosi did not intend to go through a bloody battle, or even a bitter battle. He knew that it was time to abandon the city.
This is the case in each of the three cities on the west side. Not only Huang Laosi, but also the Supreme Emperor Chang Ao and Qi Wang Chang Chengyan all won the battle. More than once, after consuming as much of Goguryeo's effective forces as possible, they thought that their own side would suffer a lot of losses.
Then they will abandon the city and leave.
From a bystander's perspective, it's a trick not worth mentioning.
But as a Goguryeo, or even as a leading general of any country, the city is the ultimate goal of a local battle. Only with more cities can we have a safe place to rest and recuperate. With more cities, can we recover the lost territory. Only by seizing the city can we continue to the next step.
plan of.
The two and three generations of the Chang family are like the most experienced prostitutes on the flower boat, time and time again provoking the restless hearts. If they are unbearable, they will lose their sense of proportion. If they lose their sense of proportion, they will be full of loopholes.
The three cities on the west side are very important. For the Goguryeo people, it is very important to get the three cities.
The three cities on the west side are very important. For Huang Laosi and the others, it is important for the Goguryeo people to move south along the three cities.
But to another group of people, the three cities on the west side are also very important.
From Chu Qing's point of view, it was more important to leave the three cities isolated.
On the seventh day, the three cities were lost one after another. The three-way Chang army was defeated and fled, abandoning a large amount of food and supplies.
On the tenth day, a huge warship emerged from the sea fog, and the commander in black on the bow kept grinning.
"It's been taken away again. The fourth child can't even fight."
Behind the commander-in-chief, a group of generals with evil faces on their faces were eager to try.
