Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 506 Conquering Liaodong
The 2 people under Wei Yunqi's command are the frontier army, and the frontier army is very capable of fighting. He was defeated as soon as he came into contact with Gao Jianwu, which is enough to show the combat effectiveness of Gao Jianwu's department.

Of the eight mountain cities to the east of Liaodong City, Wei Yunqi burned three of them, and the remaining six, with a total of 6000 people, have already come to Wunv Mountain.

As a master of the west, Gao Jianwu's hometown is Liaodong City. If this place is lost, he, a master of the west, will become empty-handed.

Therefore, Gao Jianwu's entire defensive deployment has only one core: Liaodong City cannot be lost.

Because there is a stockpile of grain that can last for half a year, as long as Liaodong City can carry it until August, the Sui army will retreat.

"Xiuyan Niangniang City, Anshi City, Futu City, and Desheng City were attacked by Shi Xiang, but now they are taken over by Xin Shixiong. These two Sui armies belong to different generals. How should we choose?" road.

Can Zuo can be understood as a long history, that is, a staff officer in the army. Ke Tulu's surname is Ke.

Gao Jianwu rode on the horse and said with a smile:

"Yang Guang has announced the list of the 24 road managers and the marching route to the world. Xin Shixiong is the head of the Dongyu Road. It can be seen that he is fighting the humble luxury. Mai Tiezhang is the head of the Xiangping Road. This is the black bone. These two roads are under the control of Li Jing. , these three have already taken the lead now. It can be seen that their mission is to go south. Shi Xiang retreated to Liaodong after defeating the four cities. It can be seen that they belonged to the Sui army that attacked Liaodong. , Of course it’s picking the ones that don’t exist.”

"Should we let Xin Shixiong do nothing?" Ke Tulu asked.

Gao Jianwu said: "Because he doesn't care about us, he is going south, and he is reluctant to waste time with us in Liaodong. Of course, to be on the safe side, we should test it out first. If Xin Shixiong doesn't budge, we will concentrate our main force to attack outside the city of Liaodong. The enemy army, before this, ordered Fen Ganyu Hunchou to lead his troops to attack Shi Xiang's troops, and they escorted thousands of people from our clan, and they couldn't go fast or far."

Separation is a military position, similar to a general.

Gao Jianwu calculated that Xin Shixiong and Shi Xiang did not belong to the same division and had different divisions of labor, so he planned to be the main force for Shi Xiang, because Shi Xiang belonged to the siege force.

Wei Yunqi withdrew after the defeat, and the remnants were incorporated into Tu Wanxu's headquarters, and it was not easy for Tu Wanxu to question him. It's not bad to resist for so long.

But Shi Xiangbu has not returned for a long time, and Tu Wanxu already guessed that something is wrong.

Shi Xiang's return route is all mountainous, belonging to eight mountains, one water and one field. If they are caught up, they will not be able to line up. It just so happens that the emperor's order has also been sent, and Tu Wanxu has no time to hesitate, so he directly marches south with his army. To rescue Shi Xiang.

If Wei Yunqi and Shi Xiang's troops are all defeated, his southern cover will be gone, and he can only rely on Li Jing's Xin Shixiong, but Xin Shixiong is the main support for going south, how can you move others?

All the siege equipment retreated in the direction of Sanfozhai. Li Jing felt very bad. If you withdraw like this, Liaodong City will send troops to fight, and I will have to carry it.

Let alone whether I can handle it, I am going south?
There are 15 people who spit out thousands of threads, and they are just like a mess.

You can't say he's wrong, and you can't say he's right. It's hard to tell right from wrong.

As soon as Tu Wanxu left, Zhongshiwei's army in Liaodong City was dispatched, chasing Tu Wanxu's rear troops and fighting. Li Jing, who knew he had been dragged in, made up his mind and ordered Mai Tiezhang to lead 1 people , Arranged a line of defense to the south to prevent the enemy troops from Liaodong from returning to the army, and he himself led the remaining 2 people plus the [-] siege troops left by Tu Wanxu to attack Liaodong City.

This is called saving the enemy.

On April 10,000th, the Liaodong offensive and defensive battle officially started, and in the mountains located [-] miles northwest of Wunv Mountain, the Sui army and Goguryeo's total [-]+ army also launched a frontal battle.

Outside Liaodong City, a full 8000-strong supervisory team lined up behind, whoever dares to flee will be killed immediately.

Li Jing sat in the central army and commanded the siege troops to attack in formation.

More than 40 catapults, hundreds of heavy crossbows, and eight ladders were all pulled up. Li Jing knew that the current Liaodong City's defenses were empty, and it was the best time to attack the city.

In just one morning, more than 2000 Sui troops had died in battle, but Li Jing did not order the troops to withdraw, but instead ordered the supervising team to force the soldiers to move on.

If he loses here again, Liaodong will stop fighting, and it will be a defeat across the board.

Outside the city of Liaodong, there were corpses all over the field. As the sun set, the moat was filled in, and the ladder was slowly pushed towards the city wall. If this thing was hit by a stone, it would be useless.

"Chief Linghu, Guo Siben."

"The end is here!" The two came out at the same time.

Li Jing ordered: "Go to the front line quickly, command Pancheng, buy time for the ladder to advance, if the ladder doesn't reach, you can't retreat, and those who disobey the order will be killed."

"Yes!"

The two left quickly and went to the headquarters to make arrangements.

As night fell, torches filled the sky outside the city. Commander Linghu and Guo Siben each led [-] infantry and rushed towards the city wall with ladders on their shoulders.

The ladder was prepared by Tu Wanxu in advance, and it was high enough to climb the city wall. It was pure cannon fodder and would kill many people.

On the catapult of the Sui army, the kerosene bombs loaded were made of oil-soaked cowhide wrapped with round stones layer by layer, and then ignited, all of which were thrown in the direction of the Wengcheng, providing cover for the climbing troops on both wings.

As long as they are hit by this thing, the soldiers basically have no combat effectiveness, and the catapults and heavy crossbows erected by the enemy on the city wall can't hold it.

This is a life-threatening consumption, and it depends on who consumes the energy.

Of the eight ladders, two were hit, and the rest managed to get close to the city wall. Li Jing immediately pushed the Eight Thousand Superintendents' team up, and personally led 2000 people to the rear of the formation.

Yang Yuanqing was the fiercest, and his headquarters suffered heavy losses, but he did not retreat a single step, and kept urging the soldiers to go to the city. Of the 500 men, only [-] remained.

But these 600 people went up from the ladder.

As soon as he went up here, the pressure on the other five ladders suddenly eased.

Siege is like this, how many soldiers can there be on the wall?Once he was climbed on the city wall, the defense immediately became chaotic. At this time, it was impossible for him to retreat. If he retreated in one breath, it would be impossible to raise it again.

As 600 people from Yang Yuanqing's department successfully climbed the city wall, relying on the advantages of weapons, they directly smashed through the city wall on the northwest side of Liaodong City. As long as it was a hand-to-hand battle, the loss of the Sui army was almost negligible.

The only things that can cause damage to the refined armor are throwing stones and heavy crossbows, nothing else.

Ordinary arrows can't break the refined armor at all, and the morale of the Goguryeo defenders is drained all at once, and deserters increase sharply.

More and more soldiers climbed onto the city wall, and the two thousand Goguryeo soldiers guarding the urn directly pulled up the white flag and surrendered, because looking at the urn from the city wall is from high to low, you can't shoot me, but I will Shoot you.

After Hulala was shot down across the lake, there was no other way but to surrender.

As the west wall of Liaodong City fell and the city gate was opened, Li Jing ordered a large army to enter the city to wipe out the defenders in the city.

This process was very long and lasted for about four days. The city was full of flames and the sound of fighting was endless.

Looking at the flames soaring to the sky in the north, Dazhong Shiwei, the big model of Liaodong City who was fighting fiercely with Mai Tiezhang, knew that the situation was over, so he hurriedly withdrew his troops to the east, completely left the Liaodong defense line, and left Gao Jianwu alone.

And Gao Jianwu didn't know that Liaodong City had been lost, and he was still fighting Tu Wanxu with his life.

It was not until three days later that he received the military information about the fall of Liaodong.

"Zhong Shiwei, you bastard, how dare you leave the city without authorization?" Gao Jianwu fainted immediately.

Shen Zoke Tulu headed in the direction of Liaodong, and after cursing a few words bitterly, he acted on behalf of the general and withdrew to the east.

They didn't dare to retreat to the south, there was Xin Shixiong there, as long as the other party saw that they were a fleeing remnant army, they would never let go of the opportunity.

The Liaodong War, after [-] days of fierce fighting, ended with the Liaodong City being captured by Li Jing.

Tu Wanxu didn't say anything on the face, and his heart exploded.

This is my Liaodong, what the hell was beaten by you.

It took another six days to clear the battlefield. Li Jing's troops suffered heavy losses. Six thousand of the 5000 siege troops were killed and nearly [-] were injured. Does not have the power to go south.

Wei Yunqi was also disabled, and Shi Xiang was even worse. He almost died. Counting the loss of Yu Wenhuaji in the north, the battle damage was astonishing.

Ashina Danai, who was supposed to be cannon fodder, suffered the least loss.

As for the Koguryo Department, the total number of deaths on the Liaodong defense line was 7000, and 8000 were captured. Liaodong City and Wuliluo City were lost. ,completely annihilated.

In Liaodong City, generals from Li Jing's department and Tu Wanxu's department had already quarreled.

It is true that Liaodong was defeated, but Mai Tiezhang was disabled and could no longer go south, and Black Bone City was the only way to go south, which made Mai Tiezhang furious.

"Aren't you going to fight Gao Jianwu? What about people?" Mai Tiezhang directly got angry at Tu Wanxu: "Greedy and aggressive, so our department had to fight Liaodong. Now it's all right, my soldiers are all injured, let me What are you going to use to fight Black Bone City?"

"This is ridiculous," Wei Yunqi said with a sneer, "it was His Majesty's order to fight Gao Jianwu, and it was Li Jing's order to fight Liaodong. You are blaming us. Everyone is in Liaodong. Could it be that we are the only ones risking our lives?" , are you watching a play?"

Mai Tiezhang angrily said: "Your Majesty asked you to fight Gao Jianwu, but you didn't let you give up Liaodong to fight. You dared to transfer all the besieging army away. You haven't done anything yet. What face do you have to face Your Majesty?"

"Fart Nima!" Shi Xiang, who had a lotus on his arm, slapped the table with his other hand and stood up, saying:

"Gao Jianwu is the main force of the enemy's army in Liaodong. If we hadn't dragged him along, how could you have attacked the city so smoothly? Haven't achieved an inch of success? How dare you say one more thing, I will kill you today."

Shi Xiang followed Yang Guang to the south to exterminate Chen, and this is also the emperor Yuan Cong, so he didn't have a bird wheat iron staff at all.

The two groups of generals quarreled more and more fiercely, but Li Jing and Tu Wanxu remained silent because they each had resentment in their hearts.

What makes me angry is that you took all the credits from me, and what makes Li Jing angry that you didn’t say hello and just dumped me in Sanfozhai. If Zhong Shiwei from Liaodong City didn’t chase you , but came to fight Sanfozhai, didn't you just sell me out?
The verbal battle between the two groups showed no sign of stopping until Wei Xuan, the chief of the Eastern Route Army, arrived in Liaodong City.
