A Goguryeo village 800 miles away from the domestic city, the quiet and peaceful village in the past has become a hell on earth!

A group of Goguryeo soldiers stormed the village and plundered. All the belongings and food in the village were snatched, and the middle-aged men were forcibly taken away.

Young and presumptuous women were assaulted and placed on carts and taken away as booty and belongings.

Eventually, a fire was lit, and a village was reduced to ashes in less than two hours!

In the dense forest far from the village, dozens of men dressed in Goguryeo costumes silently hid their watchers, witnessing the looting of the rebels. Seeing the raiding rebels go away, one of them muttered, "What are they doing?" Aren't they soldiers of Goguryeo? Why did they plunder the native inhabitants of Goguryeo? ”

As a battle-hardened pawn, I have seen a lot of slaughter and looting!

The scene when Xianbei went south to plunder the Han land was exactly the same. However, what the man couldn't figure out was that the Xianbei people and the Han people were two hostile countries, and no one was to blame for plundering each other. But the soldiers who looted and killed in front of him were Goguryeo, and the people who were looted were also Goguryeo.

It is a bit unimaginable that the army, which is supposed to be the defender, has raised its butcher's knife against its own people.

No one answered his words, and there was silence for a while, and the leading man waved his hand and said, "Go back, there is no point in continuing to investigate!" ”

"It's the general!"

The crowd shouted and received their orders.

The leader is Xu Huang, the chief general of the vanguard army!

Du Boqing's expedition was huge, and in order to boost the morale of the army, Gao Yanyou also advocated for it. When Xu Huang first heard that more than a million troops were coming towards Anhu City, he was also shocked in his heart.

After all, he only has 300,000 troops, while Du Boqing's troops are at least 1.3 million, and they are expanding rapidly.

Xu Huang was hesitant to send Liu Yi a message for help, but the follow-up information dispelled his doubts.

According to intelligence, among the more than one million troops commanded by Du Boqing, only 200,000 troops in the original city and the private army of the Du Bo family are really combative.

The combat power of the rest of the newly recruited troops and the reinforcements from the surrounding cities is not even as good as the county soldiers before the rectification of Pingzhou, and as for the strong men who were forcibly pulled, their combat effectiveness is equivalent to the bandits and thieves that Shang Ji encountered when he first entered the game.

Knowing the true situation of Goguryeo's million-strong army, Xu Huang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

However, for the sake of insurance, Xu Huang still decided to dress up in disguise and take someone to the front line for a field trip.

After arriving, Xu Huang found that the real situation was more optimistic than he imagined.

Du Boqing completely gave up the elite army plan and attempted to drown the Pingzhou army with a massive army. All the middle-aged Goguryeo men along the way were forcibly conscripted into the army, while the women directly became military prostitutes, and the food and property were robbed, and the houses were burned. The dignified regular army actually played the coercion of the rogues.

Compared with the Pyeongju army, the Goguryeo army was more like an invader.

The Shang army marched with the goal of conquest and governance, and the killing of the aborigines of Goguryeo by the Pingzhou army along the way was not serious, and even because of population reasons, the Pingzhou army fought for the purpose of protection. As long as there is no rebellion against the Pingzhou army, there will be no persecution.

In fact, Goguryeo's determination to resist was not heavy, and it was originally a multi-ethnic mixed country. Large-scale wars were often waged between the various tribes in the country, and the Goguryeo king had to stay in the palace and wait for the results of the two sides to mediate.

How can such a country, which has no historical background and operates in its own right, have strong feelings of resistance? According to normal history, it was only after two or three hundred years that Goguryeo really reached the top and became a regional tyrant. Then it was destroyed by the Tang four hundred years later.

Xu Huang and his party walked out of the dense forest, found the hidden mount, and disappeared in a burst of neighing horses.

Soon, Xu Huang returned to the camp, and the adjutant general of the vanguard army came out of the camp to greet him.

"General, as the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, as the master of an army, it is very inappropriate for you to act so rashly!"

Welcoming Xu Huang into the camp, the deputy general said with a sad face.

Xu Huang waved his hand and smiled: "Brother Benqing, if I don't go to see it in person, how can I rest assured?" Ben will be trusted by the lord and Liu Shuai, and entrust the army to me. If he can't win, what face will Ben have to face the lord and Liu Shuai? ”

The deputy general's surname is Feng Yu, whose name is Benqing, and he is a veteran military general in the Pingzhou Army. Since the period of the Black Water Plug, he has been following the merchants. Now he has also been promoted to a super-first-class military general, an official lieutenant, and a backbone member of the veteran faction.

This time Xu Huang led the army alone, and Feng Yu was sent to Xu Huang as a deputy general to make up for Xu Huang's lack of experience.

"General, how is the investigation going? Do you need to ask Liu Shuai for support? Feng Yu no longer pursued Xu Huang's personal danger, and directly inquired about the results of the investigation.

Although the information of a thousand illusions has already been sent, Feng Yu's heart is also empty!

Not to mention Xu Huang, Feng Yu is also the first time to command such a large-scale war, if it wasn't for Xu Huang taking the lead, it might be Feng Yu who went to the front line to reconnoiter the enemy's situation.

Mentioning this question, Xu Huang was immediately happy, pondered it, and said with some pride: "After this battle, Ben General may have to start the preparation for the construction of the Axe Split Cavalry!"

"Hiss......"

Feng Yu suddenly gasped and asked intently, "Is the Goguryeo army really so vulnerable?" ”

The so-called axe crack cavalry is actually Xu Huang's exclusive special class. As an S-level historical general, Xu Huang of course also has exclusive special troops.

However, this time is different from the past, and the most important thing in the Pingzhou army is the special troops. It turned out that Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and others had just joined the service, and Shang Ji supported them to establish a special unit exclusive to the school.

However, as the scale of the Pingzhou Army is getting bigger and bigger, there are more and more historical generals, and the construction cost of special arms is getting higher and higher, and it is no longer possible to establish exclusive special arms as soon as they come.

At present, in the Pingzhou Army, whether there are exclusive special troops, and the number of special troops, has become an alternative manifestation of status.

There are exclusive special troops, which means that they have entered the core layer of the Pingzhou Army, and the number directly reflects the status of the army.

Shang Ji is the lord, and the 100,000 black armor Xuan cavalry is the best in the army, followed by the second person, Liu Yi, who has 50,000 Xingyao longbows and 20,000 ghost ghost riders, and the rest are 50,000.

According to Shang Ji's latest plan, the generals who defect in the future, even if they have special troops, are not allowed to establish exclusive special troops if they do not have enough meritorious service.

Xu Huang dared to boast that he was preparing to build an axe crack cavalry after the battle, which means that he has the certainty of winning this battle, and he has to win beautifully. In the Pingzhou Army, winning is the norm, and ordinary victories are not enough to qualify for the establishment of exclusive special troops.

Feng Yu, as the old man of the Pingzhou Army, was clear about this kind of unspoken rule, and immediately understood what Xu Huang meant.

"It's simpler than expected, this kind of army is simply an insult to the army. Not to mention millions, even tens of millions can be broken in one blow! ”

Immediately afterwards, Xu Huang introduced to Feng Yu in detail what he had seen and heard along the way, including the Goguryeo army's large-scale looting of Lazhuang Ding.

"How could Goguryeo be so unwise? Isn't that the way to death? ”

Feng Yu still couldn't believe that Goguryeo would be so stupid, and muttered to himself.

"Maybe this is the destiny of heaven, God favors the lord!" Xu Huang remembered the various visions on the day of Shang Ji's wedding, and couldn't help whispering to himself. At that time, it was also because of this that he strengthened his determination to defect to Shangji.

"General Xu, how do you plan to fight this battle?"

Feng Yu's heart suddenly became hot, once he defeated the million-strong army on the Goguryeo side, of course, the credit was Xu Huang's, but as a deputy general, his status could naturally rise to a higher level. You must know that the competition within the Pingzhou Army is very fierce.

"Brother Benqing, look!"

Xu Huang pulled Feng Yu to the side of the sand table, pointed to the sand table and said, "The Goguryeo army is very scattered, and more than a million troops are scattered in the wilderness within a radius of hundreds of miles. The main force of their army is the old Goguryeo army and the clan army of the Dubo clan, as long as this part of the army is eliminated, the remaining army can be completely defeated without a fight! ”

On the sand table, a small black flag represents the Goguryeo army, and the center part is the old army and the clan army.

Glancing contemptuously at the so-called main army, Xu Huang continued: "These armies are just a little better than ordinary armies, most of them are around the third order, and the number of fourth-order soldiers is no more than twenty percent, which is far worse than my Pingzhou army." An elite cavalry plunged straight in, enough to crush it! ”

Feng Yu nodded, agreeing with Xu Huang's statement. In terms of the quality of the army, the Pingzhou Guards were enough to beat Goguryeo, let alone the war army.

"But Brother Benqing, the main purpose of our battle is not to repel reinforcements, but to eliminate the living forces of Goguryeo as much as possible. The Goguryeo army, which was nearly two million before and after, could not be eaten by our troops. It is not terrible for these people to flee into the wilderness, but I am afraid that they will flee back to the inner city, which will cause great trouble for us to break through the inner city. ”

"What do you mean?" Feng Yu seemed to understand what Xu Huang meant, and asked tentatively.

"Therefore, we need to send an elite army to secretly circle behind the Goguryeo army and block their route back to the inner city!"

"I see, the last general is requesting this mission!"

"General Benqing, we don't have enough troops, I can only give you a maximum of 50,000 troops to carry out this task, you have to think about it!"

"Hahaha, 50,000 troops are enough, a group of defeated generals, how can they bother so many troops!" Feng Yu laughed, blocking the enemy's route back to the city, it looked dangerous, but by that time, these troops would definitely have been killed, and the formation was scattered and the group was leaderless, Feng Yu was really not afraid that they would be able to turn the sky upside down.

"Good! With the general's words, why worry that the enemy army will not be broken? Let the two generals Sheng Ze and Hu Kang each lead 100,000 horses to attack from the two wings, and the general personally led 50,000 elite troops to attack the enemy's central army and defeat the Goguryeo reinforcements in one fell swoop. As long as the rout army does not plan to return to the domestic city, General Benqing will not care about him, and the rout army on the wilderness will not pose a threat to us at all! ”

"Yes, General!"
