Chapter 366: 120,000 Army

After a while, Chang Le came back, and when he entered the camp, he saw Xuan Shi staring at the map on the table with a smile on his face, and the map on the table was the map around Bozhuo City drawn by the scout scout.

"Master Hou, look at your happy appearance, what is the joy?" Chang Le asked.

"It's a great joy, a great joy." Chang Le mentioned it, and Xuan Shi laughed again: "In the south, General Su Dingfang, together with the sailor Liu Boying, attacked Baekje, is this a happy event?" ”

"Annihilation?" Chang Le was stunned: "It's gone?!" ”

"That's right, it's destroyed, the soldiers of Baekje are all in the national capital, General Su Dingfang and General Liu Boying broke the Baekje army in the capital of Baekje, and Baekje King Yici led hundreds of officials out of the city to surrender." Xuan Shi smiled: "It's so happy! ”

Every time Datang fights Goguryeo, this Baekje is like a dog skin plaster, which makes people upset, but now it's okay, solve it in one fell swoop, and you don't have to be afraid to look upset in the future.

"In this way, Hou Ye will destroy Goguryeo again, and this land of Sanhan, such a large piece of land will be included in my Tang Dynasty territory, Hou Ye, great achievement." Chang Le heard about it, and he was also overjoyed.

"At present, we must also hurry up, hurry up and take Bozhuo City, join forces with General Su to conquer Pyongyang City as soon as possible, and take Goguryeo." Xuan Shi smiled: "It's been a long time since I've heard such exciting good news, hahahahaha, happy!" ”

If it weren't for the fact that he was in the army now, Xuan Shi really wanted to bring a mess of wine and have a good drink with Chang Le, he was not an alcoholic, but the joy in his heart was difficult to suppress, and only strong wine could express the high spirit in his chest.

But now, I can only suppress the fierceness in my chest, hibernate it, and vent it all on taking Pozhuo City and attacking Pyongyang City.

Early the next morning, the soldiers in the camp were ready to go, and the sun was rising, and the army was already packed up and began to slowly move towards Bozhuo City.

If you walk for a day and a night, you will have to go out by day and night. Concealing the sight of Bozhuo City, he quietly entered the three-mile radius of Bozhuo City and stationed there.

Gozang's messenger arrived at the city, and the general of the city saw the messenger, and earlier learned from the people of the Xuanshi faction that Gozang had gradually begun to take back his rights in Pyongyang, so the guard's handwritten letter and the two seals on the letter made the guard confident in Gaozang's order.

They were originally under the orders of the Goguryeo royal family, and since the treasure king had an order, they had to obey it, and the 30,000 Tang troops outside were not too difficult for the defenders in the city to deal with.

The number of people is double that of them, and the use of people can also pile them to death.

"Send the order down, order 120,000 troops, and early tomorrow morning, follow me out of the city and attack the Tang army!" Back to King Seongjin of Pyongyang! ”

"Yes." The herald departed.

The guard looked at the scribe standing beside him: "What does the military advisor think?" ”

"The king's handwriting, this can't be faked, the 30,000 Tang army is far away from Bozhuo City, the general will lead the troops, and the battle will be resolved quickly, no matter whether the Tang army is exterminated or not, Bozhuo City cannot afford to lose." The scribe said.

"The military advisor might as well come with me." The guard general said: "There are 120,000 troops, plus the military division is strategizing, you will definitely be able to take the 30,000 Tang army in one fell swoop, as long as the 30,000 Tang army is destroyed, the towns that Goguryeo lost before can be taken back one by one, these 30,000 Tang troops are the majority of the Tang Liaodong army." ”

"The elite of the Liaodong Army is 40,000, this Dongshan Marquis led 30,000 troops to advance in the direction of Pyongyang City, this is indeed the largest of the middle, if the Dongshan Marquis can be eliminated, the vitality of the Liaodong Army will be greatly damaged, and the remaining 10,000 soldiers will be weak, and the land he took before belonging to Goguryeo will no longer be defended, and the crisis of Goguryeo will be self-defeating." The military advisor said: "In addition, Ren Wu Shizi has entered the Tang Dynasty to seek peace, and the Tang Dynasty likes to save face the most, and since Goguryeo is seeking peace, they will not fight anymore." ”

"What the military advisor said is yes, in this way, this merit of turning the tide is still the soldier in my Bozhuo City, hahahahahaha." When the guard heard the military advisor's analysis, he was very happy.

"The survival of Goguryeo is to fight here, or not, the lower officials will go with the general, and leave 30,000 defenders to garrison Bozhuo City, which is enough." The military advisor said.

"That's it, this Bozhuo City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, 30,000 troops can be defended, if you want to attack the city, how can you say that you have to have 100,000 troops, where are the 100,000 Tang troops from outside Bozhuo City now?"

After the messenger of Gozang delivered the message, he left the city of Bozhuo and returned to Pyongyang to resume his life, but he did not say anything about the situation in Pyongyang.

The army in Bozhuo City moved quickly, and according to the position of the Tang army obtained a few days ago, after gathering the troops and horses, they marched towards the camp where the Tang army was located.

At this time, the Tang army had already hidden in the mountains and forests outside Bozhuo City, and secretly sent scouts to hide not far from the official road of Bozhuo City, waiting for the army of Bozhuo City to leave the city, so as to report the news to Xuan Shi.

In the mountains and forests, Xuan Shi also slept in hammocks, there were a lot of mosquitoes in the mountains and forests in the summer, but it was hard for a soldier, there were military doctors in the army, and a lot of herbs were made in the forest, and they were ground and packed in small cloth bags and hung on the soldiers, the situation was barely better, if there were no these herbs, mosquitoes would not be allowed to eat at night?

Although there are no mosquito coils and no mosquito repellent water, there are also methods in this era, and they just work.

"Master Hou." The scout quietly ran to Xuan Shi's side: "Master Hou, the army of Bozhuo City has been dispatched, look at its banner frame, and the length of the team, the number of people is about 120,000. ”

"120,000, that is, there are still 30,000 defenders in Bozhuo City." Xuan Shi touched his chin and thought: "Thirty thousand defenders ......"

"Master Hou, in this way, doesn't it mean that even if the city is deceived into our hands, there are still 30,000 defenders to deal with, how can we enter the city with so many of us?" Chang Le asked.

"Do you still have the armor of the Goguryeo soldiers in the army?"

Chang Le nodded: "There are still some." ”

"Let the people we brought over, put on the clothes and armor of the Goguryeo people, and let the generals take the seals and documents of the spring boys and these people into Bozhuo City, how many go as many as they want, there are seals and documents, they will not be suspicious, even if they are suspicious, open the city gate, and the people outside will enter directly." Xuan Shi said: "The 150,000 army, 120,000 gone, and the rest of the defenders are estimated to be only some old and weak, and 30,000 defenders are insignificant." ”

"Yes." Always happy.

"Scouts probe again, and if there is any abnormality, they will return immediately." Xuan Shi commanded.

"Yes."

After receiving Xuanshi's order, the 500 soldiers of Dongshan County began to change into the clothes and armor of the Goguryeo soldiers.
