The lips of the camp guard Su Ande froze and shivered. This was a military branch he had never seen before. He knew that this was the Sui army soldiers wearing heavy armor, but the long blades on their hands were terrifying.
A deep trenches were dug around the camp, but in front of the gate was a flat avenue about several meters wide. At this time, the heavy armored infantry of Modao had changed its queue, from fifty people to thirty people, step by step toward the big one.
The camp is close to it, less than a hundred steps away from the gate.
"Shoot!" Su Ande finally shouted, and the Goryeo soldiers immediately shot arrows at the heavy armored soldiers of Modao.
The arrows were like rain, shooting on the heavy armored soldiers, making a jingle sound, unable to penetrate the armor. Three thousand heavy armored soldiers were facing the storm-like rain of arrows and moved closer to the camp step by step.
The Goryeo soldiers began to panic and retreated one after another. Li Chongwei suddenly yelled, "Kill!"
The three thousand heavily armored infantry suddenly accelerated and ran hard. They used ten thousand pounds of force to open the camp gate, and dozens of swords were slashed out, screaming, limbs flew, and blood mist filled...
Mo Dao's heavy armored infantry rushed into the enemy camp. Yang Yuanqing's sword was swung out from behind and shouted loudly: "Get into the enemy camp!"
Twelve thousand troops also launched. They shouted, waved their spears and swords, and rushed into the Goryeo Army camp...
Almost at the same time, the army led by Cheng Yaojin also arrived at the Goryeo Army barracks three miles west of Huaiyuan Town, with two thousand garrisons here.
From a distance, the barracks were not big, and stood quietly on the field. Five thousand Sui cavalry had reached three miles away, but they still could not see the panic of the enemy soldiers.
Cheng Yaojin waved his big axe and turned around and shouted, "Brothers, kill me!"
His military camp ordered that five thousand cavalry suddenly started, and the horses galloped, and the shouts of killing were shocking the sky. Five thousand cavalry rushed into the enemy camp like a craze. They rushed into the enemy camp in an instant, and tents were trampled by war horses, but the soldiers
They were all stunned. The tent was empty and there was no enemy.
"Where are his grandmother's Goryeo? Where have they all died?" Only the Sui general Cheng Yaojin was scolded in the camp.
At this time, a team of Sui army scouts arrived on horseback. The leader was Xiao Yannian. He rushed to the front of the camp and asked, "We are the scouts under General Luo. Who is your chief general?"
Cheng Yaojin separated everyone, rushed out of the camp, and grinned. "Xiao Tu'er, it's you!"
When Xiao Yannian saw that it was Cheng Yaojin, he also felt quite happy to meet an old friend in a foreign land, "Uncle Cheng Shi, it's me!"
Cheng Yaojin stepped forward and sighed. "Hey! I was not lucky and was ordered to attack the enemy camp. Damn it was an empty camp and all ran away."
Cheng Yaojin suddenly looked at him suspiciously, "Is it because your kid's information wrong? This is originally an empty camp?"
Xiao Yannian has known him for more than half a year and has known him for a long time, but he likes this funny Uncle Shi very much. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Uncle Shi, I'll show you someone."
He waved his hand back, "Bring it up!"
Several scouts dragged a Goryeo soldier up, and Xiao Yannian pointed at the man and said with a smile: "Uncle Shi, this is a Goryeo deserter we have caught."
Cheng Yaojin frowned, "You kid just catch someone. Just come and coax me, saying it's a deserter."
Xiao Yannian said helplessly: "Uncle Shi. If you say this, then I have no choice."
Cheng Yaojin had to curse secretly, then glanced at the Goryeo soldier and asked, "Can he say what we say?"
"Can say it!"
Cheng Yaojin strode forward, grabbed the soldier's clothes, and asked viciously: "Where are all your people dead?"
The soldiers were so scared that they were trembling, "They ran away. I heard that there were fleets killed, and everyone was scared away."
"Damn it, it's all a bunch of rabbits!"
Cheng Yaojin cursed and threw the soldiers to the ground. He was very annoyed. This feeling was like not meeting a woman in a brothel. He felt extremely unhappy. This meant that he had to at least beat him for his credit.
Fold in half.
Xiao Yannian understood his thoughts and said with a smile: "If Uncle Shi wants to make a contribution, I can give Uncle Shi one."
Cheng Yaojin hurriedly asked, "Where is the credit?"
Xiao Yannian whispered to him with his ears, and Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed, "If things can be done, I will invite my nephew to drink, and there will be no jokes!"...
Yang Yuanqing wiped out the logistics camp of the Goryeo Army. He ordered the soldiers and boatmen to carry all the food, grass and supplies on the ship. The army took a boat to cross the Liaoshui River and formed a team on the west coast of the Liaoshui River. A large army of 20,000 will be stormed towards Yancheng County.
Liucheng County, the Goryeo Army and the 90,000 coalition forces in Gaokaidao have been besieging the city for two days. They did not have heavy siege weapons, so they cut down trees and made hundreds of simple siege ladders. The army attacked for one day and one night, and the two sides fought fiercely. On the city
The city was covered with heavy casualties, corpses were everywhere, and blood stained the moat red, but the city still stood tall.
In the big tent, Yuan Taizuo stood in front of the map with his hands behind his back, his face gloomy as water, and he was extremely dissatisfied with Gao Kaidao. If Gao Kaidao's army could defend Liucheng, they would not have to siege the city with heavy losses in just one day.
His army suffered more than 5,000 casualties, but he had no gains. This huge price made him extremely heartbroken.
At this time, a report from a personal soldier came from the front of the tent: "King, General Gao is asking for a visit."
The last thing Yuan Taizuo wanted to see now was Gao Kaidao. He brushed his sleeves and said angrily: "No!"
After saying that, he regained his senses and had to hold back his anger and said, "Please come in."
Soon, Gao Kaidao hurried into the tent, bowed and said, "Master, it is not a solution to attack the city like this."
Yuan Taizuo said angrily: "I know it's not a solution, but what can you do? Will you be as passive as you are today when you defend Liucheng?"
Gao Kaidao was filled with anger. Did he not be able to defend himself? He repeatedly asked him to send troops, but he just refused to come, which led to Liucheng's loss. Now he could not conquer Liucheng, so he put the blame on himself.
Gao Kaidao endured it again and again, but he couldn't help it. He sneered: "If the King had sent troops earlier, we should be the one sitting in Liucheng now."
Yuan Taizuo suddenly turned around and stared at him, with a fierce light in his eyes. After a while, he asked indifferently: "General Gao means, this is my responsibility, is that right?"
Gao Kaidao sighed secretly. It is not the time to turn against each other. He still needs the Goryeo people. He had to bear it and said: "King, my clan brother is incompetent. He cannot defend Liucheng, but he wants to break the dilemma of Liucheng.
, there is still a way."
"What do you think?"
After all, Yuan Taizuo was the prime minister of Goryeo, and he knew that the overall situation should be the first priority, so he held back his breath.
Gao Kaidao hurriedly said: "The walls of Liucheng County are tall and strong, and without heavy siege tools, it is almost impossible to capture them. However, we can not attack it and instead attack Linyu Pass. Linyu Pass is difficult to attack from the south, but from the north
The attack is much easier. We can send an army south to attack Linyu Pass, while another army retreats to Yancheng and defends the rear. In this way, the Sui army will inevitably give up Liucheng south to rescue Linyu Pass, so that both of us will come forward and back.
If you attack closely, the Sui army will be defeated!"
Yuan Taizuo nodded. This was a feasible plan. He was about to speak when suddenly a soldier reported in horror from outside the tent: "King, some soldiers have fled back and say something happened in the rear."
Yuan Taizuo was shocked and said anxiously: "Where is the person who escaped?"
Gao Kaidao's heart was also hanging. His food, grass and military resources were also concentrated in the camp of Yancheng County, so what happened?
At this time, an officer who fled back was taken into the tent. He knelt down and cried, "King, the Sui army has captured the logistics camp, and there are tens of thousands of Sui army!"
Yuan Taizuo's eyes were red, and he grabbed his clothes and shouted: "How could there be a Sui army that fell from the sky?"
"No! They came on a big ship, came from the sea, entered the Liaoshui River, and captured our logistics camp."
Yuan Taizuo was stunned as if he was struck by lightning. He never thought of taking a boat from the sea to come to this road. He never dreamed that he suddenly shook his body and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The soldiers hurriedly supported him, "King! King!"
Yuan Taizuo waved his hand and signaled that he would not be in trouble. He took a deep breath and asked the officer again, "How many Sui troops are there?"
"It's not very clear. The pontoon bridge is broken and the news on the east coast cannot be heard. The opponent's ships are about a hundred and war horses, and it is estimated that there will be no more than 20,000 people."
At this time, Gao Kaidao also stepped forward and asked hurriedly: "How is Yancheng County now?"
The officer shook his head, "It's okay on the way here, I don't know now."
Gao Kaidao hurriedly said to Yuan Taizuo: "We can't last for five days with the military food and grass. We must go back to seize the camp, otherwise everyone will starve to death!"
Yuan Taizuo's eyes showed a fierce look, and he gritted his teeth and said, "First concentrate his troops, eliminate the Sui army on the east road, and open up the road back to Goryeo."
The sudden military situation in the Liaoshui River disrupted the plan of the coalition forces. In order to open up the road to return to Goryeo, Yuan Taizuo was forced to withdraw his troops overnight. Eighty thousand coalition forces rushed to Yan County.
Just as the coalition forces had just retreated, Xiao Yannian, who had been waiting on the periphery, immediately led his men to ride a horse outside the city. At this time, the gate of Liucheng had opened. In the night, thousands of Sui soldiers were cleaning the battlefield. After a fierce battle, the coalition forces in the siege were nearly 10,000 casualties.
People, and the Sui army guarding the city also paid the price of more than 2,000 casualties.
Xiao Yannian met Luo Shixin who was inspecting the situation on the battlefield. Luo Shixin also guessed the reason for the enemy's retreat, but he was also worried that it was the enemy's plan.
"The last general Xiao Yannian met with the general!" Xiao Yannian stepped forward and knelt down on one knee to salute.
Luo Shixin didn't expect him to come, and was surprised and happy. He quickly helped him up and asked, "How is the situation in Liaoshui now?"
"Report to the general, the general manager has led his army to occupy the Yancheng camp, and the enemy's logistics and food and supplies have been cut off."
Luo Shixin was overjoyed. According to the plan, it was time for him to send troops. He immediately turned around and ordered: "Tell me my order, all the troops will go out of the city to concentrate."
Luo Shixin immediately ordered Niu Jinda to lead 3,000 troops to defend Liucheng County. He personally led 20,000 elite troops to chase the coalition forces of Goryeo and Gao Kaidao.
