War is in chaos.

The Fu Taishou of Liaodong recruited more than 3,000 people to make a big construction posture, and the soldiers of the Liao Department scattered out from Xiangping on horseback, reported the military situation of the counties, and drove the civilians to the city for refuge.

The garrison stationed on the eastern border fought with the enemy invading Goguryeo at Daliangshui, fought and retreated, fought dozens of battles with the Goguryeo stragglers in three days, and left more than 600 corpses outside when they retreated to Qianshan.

The Goguryeo people did not pick it up well, and the Goguryeo warriors were also fierce and fierce in frontal combat, revealing the tough style of the Yi people, even if the stragglers fought against the well-trained border guards of Liaodong County, they still did not fall behind. What's more, their riding and archery traditions and small but good ponies over mountains and mountains also made Wu Shuangbu on the border of Liaodong County suffer.

However, in the battle array duel and projecting weapons, they are more than a step behind.

Because Pan Ling and Wu Shuangsuo's troops are not the elite of Yanbei, most of the subordinates are natives of Liaodong County, and most of them are integrated by family soldiers and bandits, and their combat power is in the middle and lower ranks in the entire Liaodong Army, and the armor is also an ordinary armament...... Therefore, even if they are in leather armor for two people, it is difficult to take advantage of them in close combat.

They are border guards because the Liaodong people are more familiar with mountain warfare than the Jizhou people under Yanbei's command, not to mention that Pan Ling was a bandit in the past, and he can be considered handy for mountain reconnaissance or doing some bad things on the border of neighboring countries.

However, each of Pan Ling's subordinates has a strong crossbow or light crossbow, which is a new armament that was only received in the autumn of last year, in addition to the infantry crossbow, there are hundreds of hard bows when they defected to Yanbei, scattered and scattered, Pan Ling's more than 1,000 people have 300 crossbows and 400 bows, and the projection weapons account for most of them.

If it was a real arrangement, Pan Ling and Wu Shuang might not be the opponents of the regular Goguryeo army, but they could touch the stragglers in the mountains...... Mountain bandits and robbers are generally stronger than regular armies, not to mention Goguryeo, even in the Han Dynasty!

Stumbling horses, trapping enemy pits, inverted stabs, and the unbreakable cold arrows in the old forests of Liaodong, all kinds of means emerge one after another.

In the first two days, more than 800 Goguryeo soldiers entered the mountains, and later more than 200 were scattered, and most of them were injured. Yi Yinmo, who was forced to attack Liaodong in fear, became angry when he learned of this result, and led his troops to cross the border from Susheng Gucheng, drew his sword and beheaded Xiao Jia, who commanded 3,000 soldiers and horses, and personally led his troops westward.

Left 3,000 sergeants to guard the warships along the Daliang River, and was responsible for besieging Pan Ling and Wu Shuangbu who fled into the mountains.

Yi Yinmo knew in his heart that these Han troops who entered the mountains might not be easy to deal with, and it was better to besiege them outside than to send a large army into the mountains to search for them. The military situation is urgent, how many days can they carry military rations on each of them? Sooner or later, they will starve to death in the mountains, and when they have eaten and eaten all and gone out of the mountains in a daze, how can they be the opponents of the soldiers and horses left behind.

"Brother, I've inquired, they left thousands of people to block the water in Daliang, we're afraid, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out." Fleeing west and west in the mountains and forests for several days, during which there were successive battles with small parts of the enemy army, Wu Shuang's appearance was extremely embarrassed, and his face was also blue and black, and at this time, he knew that the Goguryeo army's calculation was even more depressed, "What should I do?" ”

Pan Ling grinned narrowly, licked the tiger teeth with the tip of his tongue, raised his index finger and rubbed his nose, and looked at Wu Shuang's face full of sarcasm, "What are you afraid of, we still have four Qu brothers, can we still let them suffocate to death?" ”

"But we don't have much military rations." Wu Shuang rubbed his hands and kicked the dead leaves next to the tree, sat down and said: "This is because the general has an order to fight and retreat, and there are three days left in the army's rations...... This is good, fight and retreat, why should we retreat into the mountains? ”

There were more than 3,000 people in the two other parts of the city, and after carrying the baggage and leaving first, and counting the more than 900 people who died in the battle, there were less than 2,000 people alive at present. There are 3,000 enemies waiting outside the mountains and forests, and it will be difficult to rush out.

"Can a living person be trapped to death by this? We have at least seven days' rations left, don't worry. Pan Ling saw that Wu Shuang's face was full of gloom, and he couldn't bear to tease him anymore, so he got up and sat closer and whispered: "The soldiers collected the military rations on those Goguryeo soldiers, and their packages contained enough dry food for two or three days, but the amount was smaller...... There are also our subordinates, more than 600 wounded, and more than 200 people will not survive tomorrow, and these military rations will last for seven days. And then there is the prey in the mountains, which is enough for us to go out. ”

Going out?

"The west bank of Liangshui is separated by 400 miles, no matter where you go west, you will encounter most of the enemy army, the Goguryeo people are crazy and move thousands of people to attack, how can we get out?"

To put it bluntly, his family knows his own affairs, and these people under him and Pan Ling have not been valued by Yanbei from the beginning, and the first things they did were done by some people, such as transporting baggage, not to mention that they are not as good as the Yan Zhao warriors under the command of General Yan's lineage, and even the soldiers of Lu Yi and Zhang Jaw are not comparable, even if they are treated equally, the gap in combat power is more than one.

It is a group of stragglers who want to rush out of the mountains and forests blocked by Goguryeo's strong soldiers, which is tantamount to a fool's dream.

"West, we can't get through, so Lao Tzu plans to go east." Pan Ling's face showed a fierce look, and he asked Wu Shuang while sharpening his ring knife: "Do you remember the last battle report of General Koji on the border, attacking dozens of villages along the way, and the nearest is only a dozen miles away from the border...... Now that Goguryeo is sending troops to the west, the border defenses are pressed over, and there should be little defense in the east. ”

Wu Shuang's body seemed to have been stabbed when he heard Pan Ling's words, and he straightened up suddenly and asked, "Brother, to the east, that's the territory of Goguryeo!" ”

"I went to Goguryeo, otherwise would Lao Tzu lead a group of brothers to starve to death in the old forest?" Pan Ling spat out to the ground very vulgarly, and said: "The general said that the eldest husband is not born to act according to people's faces, could it be that the Goguryeo people put their soldiers and horses under the mountain, and Lao Tzu will not be able to live if he is slaughtered by others?" ”

"This side to the east, walk ten miles to the border, tonight send someone to touch it, to find out the reality of the border defense, if there is no garrison army, we will go over, if there is a ...... We slaughtered them and then went over, and the Goguryeo people had already come over with tens of thousands of people, and it was impossible to leave many manpower. Pan Ling scratched the hair on his head that had not been washed for several days and said that he was a little depressed here, "Damn, it would be great if Lao Tzu could draw a map!" ”

Now it's just a matter of luck.

Wu Shuang listened to Pan Ling's arrangement on the side, and although he still felt uneasy, he could only nod his head one after another...... He has no experience in battle formations, before he defected to Yanbei, he just took the country rangers to mess around, and after joining the Liaodong Army, he was only the first to serve in the light, and successively served as a military marquis and Sima, but in fact, he never fought a battle.

is not as good as Pan Ling, who used to be a big bandit here, with hundreds of villains under his command, whether it is robbing houses or fighting against the Han army, they have all experienced. What's more, after defecting to Yanbei, he also participated in the night Fugong Sun Zhan.

Although he only killed a few people that time, he was knocked back by a horse and lay on the couch for several months, but he was killed by a white horse, and he was rewarded a lot, and more importantly, his reputation in the army also rose. The two have been arranged together since the beginning of the Yanbei Dynasty, Wu Shuang is very convinced of Pan Ling, both privately and openly as his brother, at this time, since the elder brother is going to go to Goguryeo, what else can he say, not to mention that there is no superfluous way at the moment.

"Don't cry with a sad face, we're not going to die. Staying in the mountains is a dead end, the general is not in the county, it is impossible to count on reinforcements, but there is a koji general in Xiangping City, and it will not fall into the hands of Dongyi for a while and a half, and the food in the city is enough to last year, maybe the Goguryeo people are starving to death, and the defenders in the city are as fat as pigs! Pan Ling said and rubbed his stomach, he was a little hungry, but he didn't dare to eat, he swallowed his saliva fiercely and said: "Don't care if there are defenders on the border, let's touch it early tomorrow morning, and after crossing the border, as long as we can meet the village of Goguryeo, the brothers' lives will be saved." ”

Pan Ling turned his head and looked around at the robes resting in the gloomy mountains and forests, they still have 2,000 people, excluding the wounded soldiers who have not been treated, there are 1,070 people, if there are no defenders on the border tomorrow, there should be three Qu 1,500 or so who can successfully reach the territory of Goguryeo...... If you need to break through the blockade of the defenders, I'm afraid that I can survive and have 800 left.

Wu Shuang got up and walked to find his brother with light legs and go to the border to investigate, Pan Ling shook his head and struggled to move his fingers on the ground to do the math puzzle that was extremely complicated for him.

The sky was slowly darkening, and there was a distant and unreal beast roaring in the forest, and Pan Ling sighed against the trunk of the tree.

The surprise attack of Goguryeo, and the order of the Koji general to fight and retreat, all made Pan Ling puzzled...... Obviously, if there are more reinforcements to the border, you can stop the enemy, even if it is more than 10,000 field soldiers who cultivate the land in the county, they can stop the invading enemy with spears sent to the border, if the Koji general is so close that he can even kill the Goguryeo miscellaneous people again, how exciting would it be to send 5,000 ears to their king?

However, General Koji did not send reinforcements, so they had to fight and retreat alone.

The sky can see mercy, Pan Ling just received the news from the rider Pegasus didn't even understand what it meant to fight and retreat, and pulled the messenger cavalry to guess for a long time before estimating the approximate meaning of these four words, and finally Wu Shuang told him that it meant to resist a little and retreat slowly.

Fortunately, their group can't retreat back, if General Koji can't stop the enemy, I'm afraid that he Pan Ling can only take the thousand brothers to Goguryeo to be the king of Huishan again.

In fact, Pan Ling wanted to go east, in addition to snatching the people of Goguryeo in exchange for food for survival, he also had some confused expectations in his heart.

He has escorted a lot of grain routes and baggage for Yanbei, and he knows that most of the baggage troops on the Han army's side use a regular army to protect the crowds of people to escort grain and grass...... Goguryeo's soldiers and horses fought in Liaodong, and there was only one road, Daliangshui, if they could attack their grain route before the grain was loaded on the shore, would it also be able to make some contribution to the general?

In the middle of the night, Pan Ling gritted his teeth and ordered his subordinates to take off all the chapter flags and negative feathers and hide them in the cave they found...... A vicious army without a banner set foot on the land of Goguryeo.
