Chapter 120 Close the door and beat the dog

Chen Kefu was still a little worried, so he took everyone to watch the situation everywhere.

After walking around, Chen Kefu was also quite satisfied. The soldiers on the front of the city were all veterans from the military camp, subdued Goguryeo soldiers, and the people in the city. These people all reassured Chen Kefu, and there was no need to worry about showing his fuck in front of the Liao people.

The streets in the south city were arranged to wear Liao people's clothes and walk and disguise everywhere in the city. Among the shops and houses on both sides of the south city, there were already empty houses, and there were all soldiers in the houses, with shield players in front and crossbow players behind. Even after the shops and houses, there were teams of soldiers who had already carried swords and weapons, and rows of ladders were placed on the wall behind the house. At that time, as long as you do your hand, there would be a large number of crossbow players climbing onto the roof and shooting the Liao people.

The wait is always long, and Chen Kefu and others also sat on the second floor of a teahouse near Yinan City. The view here is wide, and once the battle is fought, they can completely capture the battlefield.

"Report, commander, the horse prospect in front is back."

Chen Kefu stood up and said, "Take the person here!"

A knight with the captain rank on his shoulders went to the teahouse with the soldiers of the Guard Company. When he saw Chen Kefu hurriedly knelt on one knee and shouted, "Report to the commander, we were ordered to reconnaissance the movements of the Liao people. We found the Liao people's outpost fifty miles away from the city. The large group of people was still sixty miles away from the Liaodong city. The visitors were under the banner of Gao Yuzhen and Gao Yannian. The total number of people was about 50,000, the number of cavalry was about 6,000, the number of infantry was no less than 15,000, the remaining women, children, slaves were 20,000 to 30,000, and there were also many chariots, horses, cattle and sheep."

Chen Kefu smiled, "Okay, this information is coming in time. Take this lieutenant to rest and reward him and his brothers with ten guan. It seems that these two high schools really want to take the Liaodong City as already, but they actually brought their families to come. This has robbed our General Hu Hai's errands. It is estimated that in less than two hours, they will arrive. All the soldiers are ready, and everyone cheer up. As long as this team is eliminated, I will not miss any rewards in terms of merit."

"Report that the Liao people have more than 40 miles of troops!"

"Reported that the Liao soldiers gave the city twenty miles to be left."

"Report that the Liao army vanguard has arrived and is in the formation below the city."

"Reported that the Liao people's brigade has arrived, Gao Yuzhen, and Gao Yannian's banner has arrived at the city."

When the sun was about to set, the second high men finally arrived. Although his thousands of forwards arrived early, they did not enter the city, but waited outside the city gate to let the second high enter the city first.

Gao Yannian and Gao Yuzhen are both big men who are only nearly seven feet tall. They both rode a tall horse with a fat face full of flesh.

Standing under the city, holding a horse whip, pointing at the city wall. Gao Yuzhen smiled and said to Gao Yannian, "Gao Jianwu has never taken us seriously because he is His Majesty's younger brother. This time, he fought with the Sui people and ordered our brothers not to go north, for fear that we would steal his credit. This time, the Sui people retreated, and this little boy actually went to chase the Sui people with all their troops, but he did not call us brothers. He even shamelessly asked our brothers to help him defend the city."

Gao Yannian laughed a few times, "Since he is not kind, don't blame our brothers for being unrighteous. In An City, Bai Yan is not as good as the city of Liaodong City, and there are many fertile land nearby. What's even more rare is that this is the largest trading market for the tribes in Liaodong and western Liaoning. There are countless trading caravans. Just collecting taxes, you have to collect money and grain from several warehouses a year. Such a good place, even if Gao Jianwu is so stupid that he gives it out, what else can we be polite about? Our two tribes will be half of each person in the future. I will have to be northwest, you occupy the southeast, and share the number one fortress in Liaodong."

"That's natural. Which of our brothers is with us? Gao Zhiquan, please go into the city and call the generals guarding the city over to me. I have something to ask him."

A leader named Gao Zhiquan shouted, called a few subordinates, and rode his horse to the south gate of Liaodong City. At this time, the south gate was still wide open, and there were not many Goguryeo defenders on the city. They were holding spears and looking at the army under the city.

"Hey, we two General Gao received the request from your King Rongliu, and now we bring our troops to take over the defense. Let your generals guarding the city come over, and our elders have something to ask him."

The defenders on the city responded in a long voice, turned around and walked away.

After a while, several riders came over from the city gate.

"I am the master of Jin Zhen, the ward of the south gate of Liaodong City. I don't know what happened to the two generals Gao asked me." The leader who came out of the city whispered.

"Come with us, our adults have something to ask you."

However, Jin Zhensu was an authentic defender of Goguryeo, Liaodong. After being captured last time, he chose to surrender to Sui in just one day. Because his whole family was in Liaodong, he had to surrender to Sui for his life.

"I'll ask you, when did your King Rongliu leave? How many people are there in the city?" Gao Yuzhen asked with a look at Jin Zhen and Queen Su.

"Reply to the general's words, three days ago, the Sui army secretly retreated at night. My prince began to chase the Sui people with all the troops in the city two days ago. Now the prince's beloved general Gao Ming is the prince's beloved general. When he attacked the city last time, General Gao Ming broke one leg and is now recovering from his injuries. There are still five hundred people in the city, so he is waiting for the two generals Gao to assist in the defense."

When Gao Yuzhen and Gao Yannian heard that there were only 500 people left in the city, and the left-behind generals still had one leg Gao Ming, who looked at each other and smiled.

"General Gao Ming and my brother are both old friends. Why are they so unlucky this time and they actually lost one leg? Gao Zhiquan, I sent my order, everyone will go to the city immediately, and we have to rush to visit Brother Gao Ming."

As Gao Yuzhen's words fell, more than 50,000 people parked at the city began to enter the city in a row. Gao Yuzhen was riding a horse in the middle of the team. Seeing that there were not many pedestrians on both sides of the street, he said unhappily, "I and General Gao came to take over Liaodong City, why didn't there be many people to welcome you?"

Jin Zhensu led several elite soldiers of the Sui army to walk beside Gao Yuzhen, "Well, before the Sui army withdrew, it attacked Liaodong City for more than a month. King Rongliu once recruited the people in the city to defend the city and fought hard for more than a month. Tens of thousands of people in the city were killed or injured. This time, the prince pursued the Sui people and brought more than ten thousand elite people in the city, so there were not many residents in the city now. At noon, many people came to greet him, but they couldn't wait for a long time, so they slowly dispersed."

When Gao Yuzhen heard this, he nodded and said, "I'll just say it, can there be some bad people in Liaodong City who dared to deliberately neglect the two of us? Who is you? Hurry up and report to General Gao Ming's mansion, and say that we and General Gao Yannian have arrived and will visit him immediately."

Jin Zhen and Su Ben were worried about how to get out. Unexpectedly, Gao Yuzhen gave him such a good opportunity. He quickly bowed and took several Sui troops who were monitoring him to the city on horseback.

Chen Kefu and others looked at the unprepared Liao army on the teahouse not far from the south city gate, turned to look at Mao Yi and said, "I inform you, and when the Liao people enter the city, they will immediately close the city gate. In addition, try to attack the Liao army. As for the Liao people, women, children, slaves, etc. who follow them, try not to kill them if they are not born."

After Mao Yi went down, after a long time, the Liao people still did not enter the city. After so much of the day, it was almost dark, and it would be much more troublesome to ambush it when it darkened.

Chen Kefu said to Luo Lin, "How many Liao people have not entered the city?"

"Commander, the Liao people's troops have all entered the city. Now the people outside the city are all the women, children, slaves, and the carriages, horses, cattle and sheep they carry. It will probably take one or two hours to fully enter. Commander, are we going to the opponent first? The Liao people's team is about to leave and surrounded. Anyway, those outside the city don't have to worry about running away. There is a group of my cavalry outside the city ambushing just in case."

Chen Kefu turned his head and looked at Li Benlei. The old man nodded to him. After thinking for a while, Chen Kefu said to Lu Shishen, "Mingdi, pass the city gate, ambush!"

A sharp sound of arrows sounded from the sky, and the Sui army launched an ambush. The Sui army at the city gate took the lead. The Sui army on the city wall, as well as the Sui army ambushed in the shop near the city gate, rushed out like wolves and tigers and rushed straight to the city gate.

The Liao people didn't understand what was going on. Most of the Liao people near the city gate were women and children who came with the army, and no one could resist the Sui army that rushed over. The two brothers Li Shimin and Li Xuanba brought five thousand men, all of whom were more than six feet long, all wearing heavy infantry armor, holding long swords of slashing horses, and taking heavy steps, rushing straight to the city gate like a mountain.

These heavy infantry were not fancy, they just held the long swords of horses in rows and slashed down from top to bottom. Then the heavy infantry in the second row immediately held the slash of the horses and went forward from the gap in the first row. These heavy infantry were all big strong men. When the five-foot-long blade slashed the man, they basically cut the man in half and blood spurted all over the ground.

All the heavy infantry, led by Li Shimin and Li Xuanba, went forward three steps in one row, stopped, and the second row advanced three steps, chopped down, stopped and reorganized the queue, and the one behind moved forward again. In this way, rows of rotation were rotated forward, but they could always keep a knife wall pushing forward. Moreover, the entire knife wall queue was completely maintained and would not be scattered.
