Chapter 367: Into the City
After all the five hundred soldiers had changed their equipment, they were led by a brocade guard with a seal letter and paperwork and walked in the direction of Bozhuo City.
The five hundred soldiers had just appeared on the official road, and after walking towards Bozhuo City for a short time, they were discovered by the scouts of Bozhuo City.
"Stop, who are you waiting for?!"
Jin Yiwei didn't speak, but just took out Mo Lizhi's paperwork, dismounted, and handed it to the man.
The document was clearly stamped with the seal of the king of Gozang, and the soldier also recognized the Goguryeo script on it.
"It turned out to be Mo Lizhi's envoy, offended.
"I was ordered by Mo Lizhi to come to Bozhuo City, please make it convenient, go and report it, if there is someone who comes out to greet you, it doesn't matter, I will go directly into the city." Jin Yiwei said.
"Yes, yes, envoy, please follow the end of the day." The scout greeted the Jinyi guard and the five hundred soldiers behind him and began to walk towards Bozhuo City.
When he arrived at the foot of Bozhuo City, after some shouting, the gate of Bozhuo City was slowly opened.
"Where's the city guard?" Jin Yiwei looked at the scout beside him and asked.
"Back to the envoy, the guard and the military division led the troops away, and now there is only one lieutenant in the city."
"Take me to the camp, and then go to see the lieutenant general after placing these five hundred people for the time being, anyway, I have already arrived in the city, and I am safe." Jin Yiwei said.
"Yes." The scout responded.
After the settlement, the brocade guard met the lieutenant who was left behind in the city.
"The king sent troops to attack the Tang army, as soon as the battle is over, the Tang army will be forced to withdraw from the territory of Goguryeo, it is so, Bozhuo City is not allowed to lose, otherwise the 120,000 troops outside will have no backing, the king ordered Mo Lizhi to temporarily go to Bozhuo City to defend the city, and wait until the Bozhuo City sergeant wins, he will go directly to Pyongyang to accept the reward, during this period, the garrison of Bozhuo City will be taken over by Mo Lizhi, I as the vanguard of Mo Lizhi, temporarily brought 500 people to the city to respond, this is the document, this is Mo Lizhi's seal." In the tent, Jin Yiwei took out the documents again, and also took out Mo Lizhi's seal.
After the lieutenant checked the documents and seals, he saluted: "Yes, when Mo Lizhi arrives in Bozhuo City, the last general will hand over the defense of Bozhuo City to Mo Lizhi." ”
They are all soldiers under them, and whatever is going on in the court, they are all black-eyed, and they all know that their allegiance is not to Quangai Suwen, but to the Goguryeo royal family, and now Jinyiwei is holding Mo Lizhi's seal letter, and he can also enter Bozhuo City safely, which has to say that Xuan Shijing sent someone over in advance to deliver news to fool people.
Hyun Se-kyung sent someone to disguise himself as a messenger from Pyongyang City to tell the defenders in Po Zhuo City that the city of Pyongyang was dead, and the two sons had returned to the current king, and the eldest son, Quan Nan, had inherited Mo Lizhi's position.
This is to tell them that the Izumi boy is not an outsider, but a person from Gao Zang, although Gao Zang has taken back his rights, he is still willing to give the Quan family brothers a high position regardless of their past suspicions and win over the Quan family.
"The five hundred men I brought are all elite, and at night, let them go up on the city wall." Jin Yiwei said.
"Yes, at your command."
Mo Lizhi's seal letter and documents allowed Jinyiwei and the 500 soldiers to gain great trust from the Goguryeo garrison in Bozhuo City, and it was convenient for them to act, and at the same time, informing them that Mo Lizhi would go to Bozhuo City later, which also made them let down their guard.
In the matter of fighting, whoever has the initiative in the news, the victory will be tilted to that side, and the 150,000 troops of Bozhuo City are not well informed, and in the end they are still divided.
That night, the Jinyi guard took over the garrison on the city wall with five hundred soldiers, and after all the guards of Bozhuo City were resting in the camp, they sent people out of the city quietly and notified Xuan Shijing to bring the army into the city overnight.
Xuan Shijing knew that the people had safely entered Bozhuo City, so the rest was to prepare the whole army for battle, this night, Xuan Shijing and the 30,000 army did not go to rest after a hasty meal, but the swords were unsheathed, ready, and entered the city at any time.
The people who came out of Bozhuo City quickly found Xuan Shijing.
"Master Hou, our army has successfully taken over the walls of Bozhuo City, and now the defenders in the city are resting in the camp, and Lord Hou can now lead troops into the city."
"Okay, give the order, the army will set off, and the people will quietly enter the city!" Xuan Shijing ordered.
"Yes!"
The order was passed down layer by layer, and Xuan Shijing took the lead in leading people to open the way and walk in the direction of Bozhuo City.
When 30,000 soldiers approached the city, the gate of Bozhuo City was open, waiting for Xuan Shijing's army to enter the city.
At this time, the guards of Bozhuo City were still sleeping soundly in the camp, and they did not know that the 30,000 Tang troops had entered Bozhuo City.
"Quickly surround the camp, if there are resistors, shoot and kill!" After entering the city, Xuan Shijing asked the Tang army to go to the barracks of the defenders of Bozhuo City and surrounded the entire barracks.
Chang Le followed Xuan Shijing and came to the gate of the camp.
It wasn't until the Tang army surrounded the camp and made a lot of noise that the sleepy guards in the camp came out of the tent with sleepy eyes.
"What are you doing outside, it's so noisy, and you can't let people sleep?" One of the guards muttered, and walked out in a somewhat delirious state.
"Sleep? If you go to sleep again, I'm afraid you don't know how you died, and you still sleep! Chang Le shouted.
At this time, the people in the camp woke up, and at this time, 30,000 Tang troops carried long knives in one hand and torches in the other, surrounding the entire camp.
"Bozhuo City has been taken by my Datang, do you 30,000 people choose to die? Or do you choose to surrender? Xuan Shijing asked.
All of a sudden, the Goguryeo soldiers in the entire camp panicked and looked at the surrounding Tang troops in panic.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have been living in the mountains and forests for the past few days, drinking cold water, eating dry cakes, and there has been a sense of anger in their hearts, and now there is just such an outlet, so the expressions on the faces of the Tang soldiers are very unsightly, they are simply vicious.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
The 30,000 Tang troops shouted three times with all their might, and for a while, the murderous aura around the entire camp was skyrocketing, and the Goguryeo soldiers in the camp were timid and had never been on the battlefield, and they were directly paralyzed on the ground in fright.
"I, we surrender, surrender."
One knelt down, and the rest began to fall to their knees.
The defenders in the camp were awakened from their dreams, without any weapons in their hands, some were naked, and they didn't even have time to wear clothes.
"Collect their weapons, find ropes, and string them together." Chang Le commanded.
"Yes!"
