Chapter 32 Hard decision

The dark night seemed so long. After busy for the middle of the night, there was still no sign of whiteness in the sky.

Chen Kefu stood in the camp without waiting for the Goguryeo people. He waited for a team of cavalry with arrows on his body. When he rushed to the front of the camp, the few people were exhausted. As soon as he stopped, he fell to the ground. The horses next to him were foaming at the mouth.

When Chen Kefu arrived, the soldiers had already woken up with the help of the military doctors. When they saw Chen Kefu hurried forward and shouted, "General, Lord Yuwen and General Gao are trapped in a valley twenty miles ahead. Please rescue them quickly!"

When Chen Kefu heard this, he was also a little stunned, "Mr. Yuwen? Which Master Yuwen? Could it be Mr. Xu, Lord. Yuwen Shu?"

"General, not the General Yuwen Shu, the General of Zuo Yiwei, but the Master Yuwen Shu, the Shaoqing Yuwen and Master Taipu Temple, and Master Gao Liang, and General Yingyanglang. "The soldier hurriedly said.

"Aren't Yu Wenhua and Lord Gao Liang in my camp? Why were you trapped in the valley twenty miles away? Are you kidding?" Chen Kefu said in surprise.

The soldier hurriedly said, "General, Lord Yuwen and General Gao knew that there were three thousand Goguryeo people hidden in the valley twenty miles away, so they took us out of the camp two hours ago. Then we took the camp in the valley of Goguryeo when we were unprepared. But we had just wiped out the three thousand enemy cavalry. Somehow, the Goguryeo army suddenly arrived. When I was ordered by Lord Yuwen to break through, Lord Yuwen and General Gao had all retreated to the valley. Now, as far as I saw, there were no less than 80,000 Goguryeo people, all of them were cavalry. Sir, send troops to rescue them, it would be too late."

When Chen Kefu heard this, he understood everything at once. This damn Yu Wenji not only ran away secretly, but was so brave that he dared to take a thousand people to attack the 3,000 camp when the enemy was unknown. Now, he ate three thousand people, but he also trapped himself. One thousand to eighty thousand, this is too dangerous.

After pondering for a while, Chen Kefu said to the people on the ground, "You have been injured after breaking through the siege, so go down to recover from the injury first. For the next thing, I will save Lord Yuwen and General Gao."

After several soldiers were taken down, Luo Lin walked over and said, "Sir, Na Yu Wenhua and Gao Liang took their more than a thousand men and horses out of the camp two hours ago. They went out from the Dongying Gate, which belonged to Gao Liang's soldiers. When they left, they handed over the place to the civilians to guard them and did not let them notify us. Sir, this is my dereliction of duty. I have not discovered this when I visited the camp several times."

Chen Kefu glared at Luo Lin. More than a thousand people had left the camp for two hours, but they didn't even know that if the Goguryeo people came to attack just now, the Dongying camp, which was not defended by elite soldiers, would be likely to be broken through by the enemy. How could this damn Yu Wenji, not being penetrated by the Goguryeo people's arrows? It would be fine if he didn't know. Now that he already knew, he wouldn't be able to escape.

Mr. Li Benlei sighed and said, "Sir, are you really going to save me? Now I only have these three thousand soldiers. If I guard the city, there will be no problem. But if I leave the camp, the Goguryeo people have tens of thousands of cavalry, and we will not be able to get anything. If you are not careful, I will be overturned by these three thousand military camps. Sir, think twice. I believe that even if the Emperor Majesty knows about this, I will not blame us for not saving me."

Lu Shishen spitted on the ground and said, "I feel uncomfortable when I see that little white-faced person. What's the matter? It's not enough to succeed and have more than enough failure. General, such a person is not worth dying. Why should we take risks for such a person? In my opinion, it's better for me to stick to this camp and not leave the camp. At that time, a thousand white-faced people will definitely be killed by the Goguryeo people. Then they will say that they don't obey the orders of the adults, secretly leave the camp and are surrounded by the Goguryeo people. This matter cannot be blamed on us. If the adults are not at ease with the people who report the news, leave this matter to me, Lao Lu, and the package is done cleanly."

There were only generals in the army left in the tent. The butter candle in the tent shone extremely brightly, and the firelight clearly shone Chen Kefu's hesitation at this time. According to what everyone had discussed before, it was the best way to stick to it at this time. If you go out of the city to save Yu Wenji, even if you really rescue it, the price you have to pay for the military camp is too high.

There were 80,000 people in Goguryeo, but he only had 3,000, and he would definitely have to keep people in the camp. It would be impossible to have a small number. So he could only bring one thousand cavalry out at most, one thousand to eighty thousand. Even if he was Sun Bin's resurrection, he might not have a chance of winning.

But do you really ignore it? If you want to say that Yu Wenji and others are self-defeated, he would have said that he would not save him. However, if the trapped person is just an ordinary person, Chen Kefu might give up on saving him in the end, but that person is Yu Wenji. Not to mention that he is now relying on Yu Wen's family in the eyes of outsiders, just thinking about Yu Wenji's father Yu Wenshu is enough to make Chen Kefu think about it again and again.

Yuwen Shu was a man with great power in the court. If you want to know how powerful he was, you can actually summarize it in a few words. Chen Kefu, based on his previous understanding of this history, and after coming to this dynasty, he had a lot of knowledge about the politics of the Sui Dynasty. Since the Sui Dynasty established the country, the most powerful people in the court can actually be divided into four stages. The first stage was the era of the Former Trident when the Sui Dynasty was established, which was the era of the Former Trident composed of Gao Bing, the first hero of the Sui Dynasty, and the second counselor of Yang Jian, Li Delin and Su Wei. These three people and Yang Jian completed the Kaihuang rule and were also the most powerful people in the court. Later, there was the post-Trident era composed of Gao Jian, Su Wei, and Yang Su, who were also the most powerful people. Finally, there was the era of the two giants composed of Yang Su and Gao Jian. In Yang Jian's era, they were the most awesome figures in the Sui Dynasty except the emperor.

After Yang Guang came to power, he gradually became the emperor and the minister. He used many new people. Yuwen Shu was such a person. He helped Yang Guang seize the position of crown prince and the throne. He was called the Gang of Four with three other guys, Pei Shiju, Pei Yun and Yu Shiji. Among them, Fei Yun was the Censor, which was equivalent to in charge of the political and legal work of the whole country. Fei Shiju and Yu Shiji were the emperor's advisers and ministers, and Yu Wen Shu was the general of the imperial guards around the emperor, managing the military power of the capital. It can be said that Yuwen Shu was the most awesome among these four gangs. Chen Kefu is now incompatible with the Pei family and relies on Yuwen Shu. If he did not save Yu Wenhua and let Yuwen Shu's beloved eldest son die here this time, then Chen Kefu would not dare to imagine that if he offended three of the four favorite ministers of the Sui Dynasty, he would have no place to gain a foothold in the Sui Dynasty.

He could even imagine that as soon as he returned to Liaodong City, Yuwen Shu would let his troops participate in the attack of Liaodong City. Facing the city that hundreds of thousands of people could not capture, the three thousand people went up was not enough for the meat grinder to consume in a day. Chen Kefu did not want his time travel to end like this. As for what Lu Shishen said, it was meaningless at all. So many people in this camp saw those cavalry who reported the news into the camp. Could it be that he could still kill everyone? This is more than 100,000 people.

Closed his eyes in pain, Chen Kefu gritted his teeth and said, "No need to say, General Yuwen is in danger, and we, as colleagues, must go to rescue him. Although the informant said that there were 80,000 Goguryeo people, they may not be accurate in panic. Even if there are so many people, we will not necessarily fail. As long as we wait, we should not attack the Goguryeo people head-on, but use cavalry to constantly guerrillas on the Goguryeo people indirectly and harass their attacks on the valley, then as long as we persist for a night, reinforcements from Xincheng and Dongcheng will arrive."

Hu Hai is also a veteran on the battlefield. How could he not know the helplessness of Chen Kefu making such a decision? "Sir, let me go. I will take two groups of troops there. I will try my best to deal with the Goguryeo people. If Yu Wenhua and the adults cannot wait for the reinforcements, then we will do our best."

The two groups of people were only 400, so what could this number of people do in the past? It is estimated that Hu Hai was just planning to take people to wander around the battlefield, and he would also give an explanation to the court. However, Chen Kefu estimated that if Hu Hai was really allowed to go, this old fried dough stick might be hiding near the battlefield with people, and no one would be exposed.

"No need to say anything, I have decided on this matter. This time I will take a thousand soldiers to rescue. Mao Yi, Lu Shishen, Hu Hai, Chen Fu, Chen Gui, Luo Lin, you guys go with me. The camp will be left to Mr. Li Benlei to be responsible for the guards, Zhang He and Chen Qing, you are responsible for the coordinated guards. Everyone must remember that no matter what happens, you can no longer divide your troops out of the camp. This is an order."

The old man shook his head, "Sir, let me go. Anyway, I am old, so how can I die in bed? If I die at the hands of the Goguryeo people this time, I will not be in vain for the battle. I have an irreconcilable grudge with the dog thieves in Goguryeo. I will kill one of them for enough money this time, and I will earn one. I have no other request. I just hope that the adults will take the soldiers of the military camp to kill a few more Goguryeo barbarians in the future to avenge my children in the Central Plains."

Since the battle is inevitable, everyone is unwilling to lead Chen Kefu to attack personally. Especially the nine Chen family servants who came out with Chen Kefu at the beginning, how could they let him go in such a dangerous situation?
