Chapter 232 Lang Zhuang Decision

At the third hour of Yin, the most tired time of the day.

More than ten miles away from the new city, countless torches lit up again and rumbling drums. But at this time, most of them had turned a blind eye to the Liao people sleeping in the city or the soldiers on duty at the city.

If they want to make trouble, they have completely ignored it. As long as the Sui army does not rush to the city of Xincheng, they will not care how the Sui army beats drums and drums, even if they set fire to the nearby mountains.

October 15th, it was originally a full moon, but tonight the sky was covered with dark clouds, and all the stars and moons could not be seen at all. Except for the torches all over the city of Xincheng, and countless torches dozens of miles away, all places were like a thick ink.

"Quick, hurry, hurry, it's half an hour later, it's time to go out and sway. Get up and take the torch. Don't be lazy, get up and beat the drums!" Li Jie, the chief of the Liaodong camp, was carrying a dozen people, and shouted to a group of strong men who were lying on the ground to rest on the hillside of the new city.

As Li Jie finished speaking, the civilians who were lying in a row got up one by one, each of them took two torches. They lined up and ran out of the mountain behind the hundreds of drummers yelled and ran away from the back of the mountain. While they were walking with the torches, they reignited the high torches of the people all over the ground.

As the torches were lit, it seemed as if thousands of soldiers were walking out from behind the mountain holding the torches.

"General, do you think we can really defeat the Liao people's front army if we do this?" One of Li Jie's personal soldiers asked in confusion.

In the fire, Li Jie's handsome face was faintly visible, and a deep gaze was revealed in his black eyes. The corner of his mouth gently raised, "Maybe, all this was arranged by the Grand Marshal. When will the Grand Marshal be ignored? This time should be no exception." As soon as he said that from when he did not know, he seemed to be no longer as hostile to Chen Kefu as before.

Why is this? He also didn't understand. Maybe he had witnessed and created too many miracles with Chen Kefu!

His eyes passed through the darkness and stared at the direction of the new city. Can Chen Pojun really succeed?

A few miles away from the east gate of the new city, there was a soldier hidden here at some point. People were holding pieces, horses wrapped around their hooves, and even the horse's mouth was covered with bags. There was no torch, no flags, and no noise, and it appeared silently several miles outside the east gate of Liaodong.

"It's almost time, it's time to act!"

In the dark night, a pair of bright eyes blinked a few times.

"Chen Lang, please leave the task to me. In order to defeat Goguryeo, the common enemy, the warriors of our Silla Kingdom are willing to fight together."

Princess Silla, Jin Shengman, who had been dressed in black leather armor, said firmly. Behind him were the seven Hualangs and one thousand Langs, and their black light armor was of the same color. However, the six Hualangs were wearing bright colors, red and green, and each of the six wore a brightly colored dress-like outfit.

Moreover, the six people were wearing beautiful and bright clothes, and all of them were put on makeup at this time. The six noble and beautiful boys had their hair loose and straight down. Not only that, the handsome faces of the six people were now painted red with eyebrows and powder, and their lips were all covered with red rouge.

Even on both ears, there were a pair of exquisite earrings hanging on them. The six of them looked solemn. When they looked at the first day of the Chu Dynasty, they actually had a different kind of beauty. At this time, they were holding swords in their hands and kneeling behind the princess on one knee.

Chen Kefu looked at the people in front of him blankly, and he even felt like he had traveled back in time. What is this? Thai shemale? But these people are the ancestors of Koreans. Could it be that Thai shemale was passed down from South Korea? When he thought that these people were the princess’s confidants, he felt a little disgusting.

"This...this is..." Chen Kefu pointed at the six Hualangs and said silly.

The princess said very sacredly, "We are all honored to be able to undertake such an important task in the battle against Goguryeo this time. In order to show our determination to complete the task, the Hualangs had just conducted the most sacred ceremony of Hualang, and Lang Zhuang made a decision."

"Lang Zhuang decided?"

"That's right, every Hualang will take Langzhuang when he receives the most important task. As long as he takes Langzhuang, he means that he must complete the task until his death to show his decision. It also means that they die for battle and hope to leave the most beautiful side in the world. Unless the task is completed, no matter what the result is, the Hualangs will apologize unless they die in battle."

After hearing this, Qiu Kefu was shocked. He was still a Thai shemale just now, but why did Yiwuzi become a little *** warrior again, and he actually had to cut off his stomach.

"Princess, I think I'd better let my people go to this task. After all, you are a guest from afar. I still don't think it's appropriate to make them so determined."

The princess shook her head and said, "As long as the Hualangs are put on the makeup, they will either win or die, and there is no third choice. At this time, Chen Lang asked them to give up, and they could only apologize. Don't say Chen Lang. My Hualang and Lang's disciples are very proficient in harassment and destruction, and everyone has received special training. This time the task is completely tailored for us, so Chen Lang doesn't have to say anything more. You can issue the task, there is not much time left."

Chen Kefu looked at the six young white men with a determined face, and at this time he admired them. Although they were all from great nobles, each of them was very strong and received training from their childhood. Moreover, these people had to go to the battlefield and accept various dangerous tasks, but these people would not have timid and complaints about the task.

It is said that a strong young man means a strong country. In history, Silla became the last winner among the Three Koreans and unified the Three Korean Peninsula, but it was not a lucky or accidental one. Speaking of which, these people are much better than the children of the Han Chinese nobles in history.

Nodding, Chen Kefu said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'll hand you this mission. When the troops evacuated from the new city last time, I had already buried gunpowder in many critical places in the city. And a large number of thunders were buried in several important locations such as the military camp and the city gate. You know the power of the gunpowder and the thunderstorm. Now we will send a small army to sneak into the city along the secret passage we have already left, and ignite the fire and thunderstorm we buried."

"Because I was afraid that the enemy would find it, only two tunnels were dug, so there should not be too many people going there this time. It is best to sneak into the city two or three hundred people. Once you enter the city, you will immediately take action. There are four target points, namely the city gates on the west, south and north, and the military camp in the north of the city. I will give you the map later, and I will also send a few people familiar with the terrain as guides. Once you succeed, you can find a hidden place to hide."

The six Hualangs were all children of Silla nobles. They understood and spoke all the Chinese language in Central Plains. They nodded and took their people down to discuss the assignment of tasks on the map.

Together, there were only Chen Kefu and the princess left. The other personal soldiers stood far away. The princess glared at him and said angrily, "Didn't you agree not to call me princess in the future? I'll call you Chen Lang, just call me Shengman? Why do you still call me princess? Don't you want to admit our relationship in front of others?"

Chen Kefu smiled slightly. This is really the same in ancient and modern times. No matter how noble or reasonable a woman is, once she falls into love, some of her will become unreasonable and like to behave like to be cute. She reaches out and gently pulls the princess' hand and puts it in her palm to warm her hands. "It depends on where you want to go. It's just that now in the army, I'm in front of your subordinates just now. I just called you princess to appear more formal. Since I love you, of course I can't dare not admit the matter between us."

The princess smiled happily and leaned her body against him, "That's good! By the way, are you really so sure about those gunpowder and the thunder?"

"Don't worry, just wait and watch the show. In ancient times, King You of Zhou smiled at Bao Si and did not hesitate to play the princes. Today I want thunder to shake the nine heavens, burn the city with flames, and win over Man's smile." Chen Kefu said with a smile.

At four o'clock in the morning, that is, at four o'clock in the morning, six grooms Hualang, led 300 selected mentors and several Sui army guides to sneak into the city through the tunnel.

As soon as they left, Chen Kefu immediately called the soldiers and generals hiding here to issue the final mission.

In order to win more time, reduce the Liao people's troops and delay time, waiting for the introduction of Zhang Xutuo's reinforcements. Chen Kefu, on the one hand, asked Khitan, Silla, and Mohe to send troops to attack those allies in Goguryeo. On the other hand, he also sent 20,000 light cavalry, divided into three groups to raid the Liao people's marches, intercept the Liao people's logistics and food, and march east of the Daliang River to launch a raid on Goguryeo.

With the dispatch of countless spies from the Special Service Department and the reconnaissance cavalry, and with the flying eagle's message, Chen Kefu was well aware of the advancement of the Liao people's troops. He also made full use of this information. Last time, he used Gao Jianwu's front army and the central army to be far behind, waiting to gather the information with the Hei Shui Mo, which allowed Lu Shi to attack the Liao people's front army late at night and achieved a considerable victory.

This time, he also planned to take advantage of this time difference. The distance between the Goguryeo front and the central army was two days apart. He first withdrew the troops from the new city, allowing the Liao people who came from afar to occupy the new city. However, he had already done his tricks in the city. Not only did he dig two tunnels, but he also buried gunpowder and explosive packs in various key places.

Of course, with the current large gunpowder technology, the explosive pack he buried could not really kill all the Liao people. However, those gunpowders can cause fire in the city. In addition, the sky-shaking thunder buried in several city gates and military camps, even if they cannot kill many Liao people, they can still scare the Liao people.

After dark, the fires dozens of miles away outside the city were his suspicious soldiers. There were only five thousand civilians led by Li Jie. In the dark night, more than one hundred drums were arranged on each side, and more than a thousand people were arranged to insert tens of thousands of torches on the mountain.

Every more than half an hour, I thought of a drum, and then Minzhuang lit the torches inserted there. Let the Liao people in the new city think that the Sui army is attacking, but after half an hour, they blow out the torches and stop the fire. In this way, one after another, after several times, one after another, one attacked the Liao people to rest. Secondly, they used the drum noise to cover Chen Kefu's troops and horses to sneak into the east gate of the new city several miles away. And thirdly, they could also paralyze the Xincheng people in the city by seeing the sound of not asking the Sui army to attack, making them slack, thinking that the Sui army would not attack the city at night.

After the previous plans were successful, Chen Kefu began to send people to sneak into the city and ignite the gunpowder and explosive packs, and the good show officially began.

After a while, several generals led the troops had already arrived, and most of the generals of the Central Army were generals. The seventh battalion of the Central Army, two of the light cavalry battalions had long been sent to the city to fight, leaving behind a heavy infantry battalion, a heavy cavalry battalion, a bow barricade, a crossbow barricade, and a long spear infantry battalion.

There were 20,000 Liao soldiers and horses. Chen Kefu brought 14,000 combat soldiers of the Central Army, and two light cavalry battalions in Hu Hai's army, plus one engineer battalion of the Central Army and Hu Hai's Right Front Army, and one 28,000 troops, which gave the Liao army a lot more in number.

"Please mobilize troops by the marshal!"

Chen Kefu said in a deep voice, "After a while, the thunder in the city will sound, our army will immediately dispatch. Hu Hai, you lead a battalion of light cavalry and a battalion of light infantry, responsible for feinting attacks on the three city gates, north and south. At that time, the three city gates will be destroyed by the thunder in the sky, and you must do your best to attack. You do not require you to really defeat the Liao people, just seize the city gates and force the enemy to retreat. The Dongcheng Gate has no thunder in the sky, so you will force them to the Dongcheng. Remember, don't really fight, just act like a gesture. Use more flags and shout louder."

Hu Hai nodded and said, "Master, don't worry, there is no problem!"

"Li Shimin, Li Xuanba, I ordered you and the two of you to lead the heavy infantry battalion to ambush outside the East City Gate and wait for the Liao army to leave the city and let them go. After all the enemy troops leave the city, you will take the opportunity to fight out and completely cut off the Liao army's retreat. Remember, your task is to defend the East City Gate and prevent the Liao people from retreating back to the city."

"Get orders!"

"Guo Xiaoke obeyed the order, and I ordered you to lead 4,000 heavy cavalrymen to set up an ambush five miles from the East City Gate. As soon as you see the heavy infantry cutting off the enemy's way back, you will immediately take advantage of the situation and break the Liao army formation with the momentum of thunder. Your mission is to break the Liao army formation, and as long as you kill them, it will be considered a great achievement."

"Get orders!"

"Chen Feng, Chen Lin, I ordered you two to lead a battalion of light cavalry and two thousand ambush outside the Liaodong city. When you see the heavy cavalry breaking through the Liao army, you will immediately come out and drive the Liao army towards the Xiaoliao River. Do not let them form a formation again. As long as you cannot let them gather, driving them to the Xiaoliao River will be considered a great achievement!"

"Get orders!"

"I led two battalions of engineers, one arch barracks, one crossbow barracks, and one spear barracks formed a formation ten miles from the east gate of Liaodong City to wipe out all the scattered Liao troops one by one. Everyone, the military order has been issued, please do not work hard. Those who complete the task will be rewarded after the war. If any order is wrong, they will be severely punished!"
Chapter completed!
