Even Zhang Shigui was a little blindsided, and I don't know why during this time, Cheng Yanjin always spoke for him. No matter why, Zhang Shigui is still grateful in his heart.

"I didn't expect it to be He Zongxian, who thought of such a perfect method. Then this credit will be recorded on He Zongxian. Wei Chigong said with a happy expression.

Hearing Wei Chigong say this, He Zongxian hurriedly knelt on the ground, saluted Wei Chigong and said, "How can the last general, how dare Marshal Lao praise him." ”

"Anyone who has made meritorious service should be rewarded, and if he makes a mistake, he should naturally be punished. Only then can there be clear rewards and punishments. Therefore, Ben Shuai decided to promote He Zongxian to the deputy vanguard of the front department. Wei Chigong said to He Zongxian, who was kneeling on the ground.

This made He Zongxian very happy, and hurriedly thanked Wei Chigong. stood obediently by Zhang Shigui's side.

"Now that the golden beach has been controlled by our army, the vanguard general Zhang Shigui, you can take the vanguard army and march to Jili City." Wei Chigong said to Zhang Shigui.

"The last general will give orders, and the vanguard generals will send out to the city early tomorrow morning." Zhang Shigui said after saluting Wei Chi.

"I don't know how many days you are going to take Jili City, when Ben Shuai and the emperor can lead the Chinese army there." Wei Chigong asked Zhang Shigui.

"Now our army doesn't know the situation in Jili City. So the last general now does not dare to marshal assure. However, the last general will definitely do his best to take Jili City as soon as possible. Zhang Shigui saluted Wei Chi and said.

"Marshal, what the vanguard general said is true. After all, this Jili City is no better than the Golden Beach Walled City. That was the first big city we faced when we entered Goguryeo. ”

"So to be on the safe side, I think the army should follow up as soon as possible. lest the vanguard be lost. Xu Maogong got up and said to Wei Chigong.

Hearing Xu Maogong's words, Wei Chigong nodded and said, "Zhang Shigui, this commander ordered to set up a joint camp outside Jili City. Three days later, the marshal and the emperor will personally lead the army to Jili City. ”

"Please rest assured, the marshal will definitely prepare the camp. Waiting for the arrival of the emperor and the marshal. Zhang Shigui said to Wei Chigong.

In fact, at this time, Zhang Shigui's heart was very reluctant. After all, if the Chinese army also arrives in Jili City, then it will not be so easy to do the business of stealing beams and changing pillars.

But I can't stop it, so I can only warn myself to be more careful. lest they be seen as strange.

……

Early the next morning, three cannon shots rang out in the golden beach. Zhang Shigui led the vanguard army and walked out of the Golden Beach Walled City. Heading towards the first big city to enter Goguryeo, Jili City.

Zhang Shigui led the forward army and stayed overnight for more than ten days. I saw Jili City from afar.

So Zhang Shigui ordered the vanguard army to choose a place to camp ten miles away in front of Jili City. and fortifications were built.

The company camp set up this time is not trivial, and the length of the continuous camp is dozens of miles. Otherwise, it is really not enough for an army of 500,000 to live.

At the same time, around the entire camp, there are tall antlers that resist horses. A temporary fence was built out of logs. Watchtowers and arrow towers were also built.

Such a large camp is definitely not something that can be built in a day or two. However, fortunately, Wei Chigong led the Chinese army and set off three days later than the vanguard army.

In addition, the marching speed of the large army is much slower than that of the vanguard army. This also left Zhang Shigui enough time to set up camp.

On this day, the camp was almost finished. Moreover, the scout also sent back the news that Wang Jun could guard the golden sand beach.

The others followed Li Shimin and had already gone to Jili City. Now it is estimated that there are still about two days before the camp built by Zhang Shigui.

In the big tent of the vanguard army, Zhang Shigui said to Xue Rengui: "It has been a few days since our army came to Jili City. It's also time to play two fights with them. ”

"The vanguard general is right, at least we can take the opportunity to probe their reality. If the vanguard general believes in me Xue Li, I, Xue Li, you are willing to take the lead for the vanguard general. Xue Rengui said to Zhang Shigui.

In fact, Xue Rengui knew in his heart that even if he didn't take the initiative to ask for help. After turning around in a big circle, the last one to lead the troops into battle was definitely himself.

Since the result is the same, it is better to choose an active way. lest they see their father and son, singing double reeds there.

"The general is really a tiger general, since this is the case, please ask the general to lead the troops to Jili City to fight the enemy and scold the enemy." Zhang Shigui said happily to Xue Rengui.

After Xue Rengui snorted, he turned around and left Zhang Shigui's pioneer tent. Turned around and went back to the Fire Head Army to transfer troops.

After returning to the Huotou Army camp, Xue Rengui immediately ordered Zhou Qing and Xue Xiantu to gather troops and horses to prepare to leave the camp.

At this time, Li Tai also came to Jili City with the Huotou Army, and is now resting in his camp. Hearing that people were gathered outside, he walked out with Li Tianming.

Now Sun Qiang has already led the beast camp and lurked around Laijili City. Even Luo Huan has already led the armor-breaking army and infiltrated Jili City.

"I'm going with you today, and I'm in the rear to watch the enemy's formation for you." Li Tai said to Xue Rengui.

After Xue Rengui nodded, he turned over on his lightning white dragon horse. Carrying the silver scissors halberd, he led the firehead army towards Jili City.

The main general in the city of Jili has been strengthening the city wall for the past few days. Prepare for the next big battle.

The main general of this Jili City, whose surname is golden, is undoubted. With an iron rod in his hand, he also has the courage to be unstoppable. Moreover, there are many soldiers in this city, and there are more than 50,000 soldiers who originally defended the city.

In addition, some time ago, Gai Shuwen in order to reinforce Golden Beach. And the 20,000 men who had been sent now dwell in this city of profit.

The reason is that by the time they arrived, the Golden Beach Walled City had already been lost. So he stayed directly in Jili City and cooperated with Jin Budo to guard Jili City.

At this time, Jin Budo was on the city wall, inspecting the fortifications. Suddenly saw that an army had been killed on the opposite side, and he knew that it was the Tang army that came without asking.

"It's been a few days since I've been here, and today I finally want to do something with General Ben. Come, prepare horses and carry sticks for this general. Jin Budo said loudly.

When Xue Rengui led his troops to Jili City, the gate of Jili City had been opened. Jin Budo led 3,000 men and horses to kill and set up a battle formation on the bank of the moat.

After Xue Rengui ordered the soldiers to line up in battle, he walked towards the front of the two armies with a little lightning on his feet.

At the same time, with a finger of the silver scissors halberd in his hand, he shouted loudly at the soldiers: "This general is the vanguard of the Tang Dynasty, and He Zongxian, the deputy vanguard under General Zhang Shigui." Whoever is not afraid of death, come and fight General Ben for three hundred rounds. ”

"Who is willing to take the head of this Tang Dynasty barbarian back to General Ben for General Ben." Jin Budo said loudly to the military general.

As soon as Jin Budo's words fell, a military general appeared by his side. This man clenched his fist to Jin Budo and said, "The last general is willing to go." ”

After speaking, he put a war horse on his feet and waved the spear in his hand. rushed towards Xue Rengui, and at the same time ran and shouted loudly: "The Tang Dynasty barbarians take their lives." ”
