Chapter 606: Ripping Bamboo Sticks
Anshi City is not going back, returning to Anshi City is too risky, now the best way can only go to Qianyu, replenish some heavy supplies, besides, Liaodong is now full of beacons, go to Qianyu, wounded soldiers healed, in Qianyu is also a large combat effectiveness.

The remaining Goguryeo soldiers silently put themselves in order, and the army then began to march towards Qianyu.
At the beginning, the 10,000 army walked out of Anshi City with high spirits, but they didn't expect to come to this day step by step.
Everyone's mood is low, and they no longer have time to complain about others, and now, they just want to arrive in Qianyu City safely.
After a long journey, when Xuan Shijing led the three hundred soldiers to Liaodong City, the three hundred soldiers behind him were already exhausted.
For the training of these three hundred people, Xuan Shijing has never let go, although the number is small, but Xuan Shijing is expecting to be able to build them into a sharp knife elite soldiers, placed in the ordinary army, at least at the level of a captain.
When he arrived at the camp of the Tang army outside Liaodong City, after Xuan Shijing settled the 300 soldiers, he went to the big tent of His Majesty Li Er to meet His Majesty Li Er.
When he came to the camp, Xuan Shijing changed out of soft armor, put on the armor of the deputy general of the vanguard army, and put on a set of heavy armor on his slightly thin body, which made Xuan Shijing really a little uncomfortable for a while.
Under the leadership of the officers and men in the army, Xuan Shijing came to the tent of His Majesty Li Er.
In the tent, His Majesty Li Er was also dressed in golden armor, standing in front of the map, which was already full of textures, and the armies everywhere were also marked with small notes.
Xuan Shijing walked to the center of the big tent and bowed to his fists, and saluted His Majesty Li Er: "Minister Xuan Shijing, see Your Majesty." ”
Hearing Xuan Shijing's voice, His Majesty Li Er turned around, looked at Xuan Shijing, and helped him with his empty hand: "No courtesy." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Jing'er, in the vanguard army, I have heard everything you have done, not bad." His Majesty Li Er praised: "Originally, you should have been stationed in Beisha City, but now, I feel that you kid made this thing out of gunpowder, and it is you who know how to use it skillfully, so I sent you to Liaodong City." ”
"What does Your Majesty command?"
"As you know, my target is Liaodong City." His Majesty Li Er paced: "Now Liaodong City is not as good as before, if it is attacked, the soldiers will definitely suffer heavy casualties, although it can be taken, but there is a better way to avoid casualties, I want to give it a try." ”
As soon as His Majesty Li Er's words were finished, Xuan Shijing understood.
"Your Majesty wants to use gunpowder." Xuan Shijing said.
"Yes, the power of your gunpowder is very amazing, so this time to attack Liaodong, the front army allocated a part of the men and horses, and you commanded it." His Majesty Li Er said: "Whether the army can set foot in Liaodong City depends on your kid. ”
Xuan Shijing didn't immediately camp, stood in place, touched his chin and thought about it carefully, and then said: "It's not impossible, it's just that the minister is in charge of a part of the front army, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, otherwise, Your Majesty, the minister still uses the three hundred people brought by the minister." ”
"Three hundred?" Hearing this amount, His Majesty Li Er frowned: "How can three hundred people succeed?" Although I know that your 300-strong baby pimple is an elite soldier, Liaodong City is extraordinary. ”
"There are not many people, but there are many people, but it is easy to leak, when I was in Beisha City earlier, the minister had already used a lot of gunpowder, if the scouts on the Goguryeo side could notice, now the news of gunpowder should have reached the ears of those Goguryeo generals." Xuan Shijing said: "Therefore, the vanguard army attacking Liaodong City, the three hundred people of the ministers, are just right. ”
"Do you have that confidence?" His Majesty Li Er asked rhetorically.
"I don't dare to say 100% sure, but sixty or seventy percent of the confidence is there, but Your Majesty, you have to give the minister enough gunpowder." Xuan Shijing said.
There is a saying that it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, in case His Majesty Li Er is stingy with that little gunpowder in the army, even if Xuan Shijing's mind is exquisite, no matter how he can come up with some crooked tricks, it is not easy to use.
"Six hundred pounds." His Majesty Li Er said, "If you had given me the gunpowder earlier, I would not have prepared in such a hurry. His Majesty Li Er said, between his words, he wanted to tell Xuan Shijing that there was not much gunpowder in the army, not to mention that a lot of it was distributed to various armies.
Take out 600 catties for Xuan Shijing at once, which also means that for the use of gunpowder in the future, even if it is a large army, you have to tighten your belt to live, before attacking Anshi City, these gunpowder in the army can no longer be easily used, you know, the defense of Anshi City is much more difficult to break through than Liaodong City.
Six hundred pounds...... Xuan Shijing pondered for a while, it sounded like a lot, looking at His Majesty Li Er's attitude, I am afraid it will not be easy to pull something out of his hand again......
"Six hundred catties should be enough, Your Majesty, the three hundred soldiers of the minister are still pack horses, and they are all spears and horizontal knives in their hands, and they don't even have bows and arrows." Xuan Shijing said.
"I ordered you to allocate three hundred war horses, as for the bow and arrow, boy, you have been in the vanguard for so long, and you have been guarding Beisha City for more than half a month, Hugh is going to come to fool me, I don't believe it, you have this opportunity, will you give these three hundred baby pimples to get some good bows and arrows?" His Majesty Li Er snorted coldly.
His Majesty Li Er didn't have any Xuan Shijing to save face, and when he went up, he pierced Xuan Shijing's desire to rip off the bamboo.
However, what His Majesty Li Er said was right, in the past half a month in Beisha City, Xuan Shijing had already let the three hundred soldiers under his command change their shotguns one by one, of course, except for the war horses.
At that time, when the Goguryeo army came to attack Beisha City, the 10,000 troops sent were all infantry, and in the end, not even the hair of the war horse was left for Xuan Shijing.
His Majesty Li Er made it clear that he would not retreat, and Xuan Shijing had no choice but to give up, it was already an unexpected gain to be able to get three hundred high-quality war horses, and the gunpowder in Xuan Shijing's hand had been used up in the interception on the road, and the newly allocated six hundred catties were just used to replenish it.
As for how much gunpowder can be used to blow up the defenses of Liaodong City, it will have to be actually explored.
The current Xuan Shijing, together with his three hundred soldiers, is basically a poor bastard in terms of materials, except for his outfits, he has nothing.
Fortunately, the three hundred people are still within the scope of Xuan Shijing's management ability, even if the baggage on the road is used up, find a forest to get into, and let the people under his hands have enough to eat.
At the beginning, these 300 soldiers in Dongshan County were specially trained on how to survive in the mountains and forests.
