When it was almost the fourth day, Zhang Xuan led his army to the barracks. The Goguryeo Army's camp was also surrounded by the barracks. Eight tall towers were deployed around them. Four of them were obviously just built. You can clearly see people walking around the barracks. Several teams of soldiers patrolling around the barracks. The Goguryeo Army obviously strengthened its vigilance.

"This group of dogs not only have open whistles, but also secret whistles!"

Chen Guang pointed to two big trees in the distance and whispered to Zhang Xuan: "I found someone lying in ambush above."

Zhang Xuan nodded, "The Goguryeo also thought that we might come to rescue prisoners of war, and a lot of alerts were obviously new."

"Then use the old method!"

Chen Guang laughed in a low voice and said, "I'll touch it first and set a fire!"

Zhang Xuan shook his head, "You can't set fire this time, it will affect the prisoner-of-war camp. They are too close to each other."

"But we cannot deal with all the posts and patrols at the same time, and we will be discovered." Chen Guang said worriedly.

Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "Now I know why Cui Hongsheng said that he should be decisive once he acts, because he knows very well that we can't avoid the whistle and there is no way. When the time comes, he will start to attack hard, attack with the fastest speed, and use the enemy's chaos to win."

After pausing, Zhang Xuan said again: "I believe Choi Hongsheng will not be indifferent."

At this time, Chen Xu rushed up and whispered: "General, the fourth update is here!"

Zhang Xuan slowly clenched his fists and whispered to Chen Guangling: "You can go!"

Chen Guang jumped up first, and dozens of Sui soldiers followed him and rushed forward. They ran quickly with their waists and were extremely agile. When they ran out a hundred steps, Zhang Xuan turned over and waved his horse, "Take me up!"

A thousand Sui troops followed Zhang Xuan out of the woods and rushed towards the enemy camp three hundred away.

At this moment, Chen Guang and his men were discovered by several patrol sentries, and the patrol sentries shouted: "Who is it?"

Before he could send an alarm, more than a dozen crossbow arrows shot out. Three patrol soldiers were shot at the same time, making a quick scream, which alarmed the whistle. The Goguryeo soldiers on the whistle immediately sounded the alarm bell, 'Dang! Dang! Dang!' accompanied by the sentry's shout: "There is an enemy situation!"

Amid the alarm bell, Chen Guang and his men rushed to the front of the camp gate. They threw the ropes into the camp gate. They shouted and pulled the camp gate back together. At this moment, hundreds of Koryo Army crossbowmen suddenly appeared in the camp gate. They shot arrows out at the same time, and hundreds of arrows shot densely at Chen Guang and his men.

Chen Guang reacted quickly and shouted "Look down!" But it was too late. Dozens of his subordinates were caught off guard and were shot down by arrows. Screams were everywhere.

Chen Guang's eyes were red, and he punched the ground hard. He jumped up and pulled the rope. The remaining subordinates who had not been shot in the arrow also pulled the rope, and a wooden fence was knocked down.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan led his men to kill him. Seeing that Chen Guang's subordinates were seriously injured, he was furious and his war horses jumped into the enemy camp. Dozens of Goguryeo crossbowmen who were closest to the camp suddenly saw a god-like general killing him, and they were so scared that they threw away the crossbow and turned around and fled.

Zhang Xuan roared. The long halberd swept across, and several enemy soldiers were smashed to fly out. He danced the blue dragon halberd and went out to sea like a black dragon, and rushed into the dense group of enemies. Wherever the war horses passed, they killed Goguryeo soldiers' corpses and limbs flying everywhere.

At this time, several more camps were pulled down, and a gap of two feet wide appeared. More than a thousand Sui soldiers rushed into the camp and rushed towards the Goguryeo camp with shouts.

Although the Goguryeo army strengthened its alertness, it was the fourth hour after all, and most of the soldiers were sleeping sounds. The rapid and harsh alarm bells woke them up from their sleep. The camp was in chaos, and many soldiers didn't even have time to put their armor on their backs, so they grabbed their weapons and rushed out of the tent to fight.

In order to prevent the enemy from getting the opportunity to assemble, the Sui army quickly dispersed after entering the enemy camp. They were divided into ten teams, one hundred people, and led by the brigade commander to kill the camp from all directions.

Although the Sui soldiers were well-trained and decisive in killing, they had too few troops to defeat the Goguryeo army in one fell swoop. As the Goguryeo soldiers gradually recovered from the chaos, they quickly organized effective resistance, and the battle became even more cruel, and the Sui army suffered casualties.

At this moment, fierce fighting broke out in the prisoner-of-war camp. One thousand Goguryeo soldiers patrolling the prisoner-of-war camp and three thousand Sui army prisoners were killed in a group. The Sui army prisoners used various pig iron waste to build weapons and quietly armed three thousand prisoners of war, led by Ying Yanglang general Yao Chunsheng.

On the hillside about three hundred steps away from the military camp, there is a warehouse for storing pig iron, which contains tens of thousands of iron bars. They are usually not stored here and are not allowed to stay overnight. This is the most stringent regulation of the prisoner-of-war camp. All smelted pig iron must be sent away immediately and cannot be left in the mine.

However, due to the arrival of the Sui army, the water route was blocked and a large amount of pig iron could not be transported out. Not only was the military camp full of various pig iron forgings, but the warehouse that usually only piled up only wood also accumulated tens of thousands of iron bars.

These iron bars are guarded by more than 300 Goguryeo soldiers. Once there is an abnormality in the prisoners of war, the troops in the barracks will immediately come to provide assistance.

But at this time, fierce fighting broke out in the military camp, and the guards rushed back to the camp to assist in the battle, leaving only a dozen soldiers guarding the warehouse.

Suddenly, a huge torrent rushed out of the prisoner-of-war camp. Cui Hongsheng led more than 20,000 Sui army prisoners rushed towards the warehouse. More than a dozen Goguryeo soldiers saw that the situation was not good, so they were so scared that they ran away.

The Sui army prisoners smashed open the warehouse gate and rushed in. Tens of thousands of iron bars instantly turned into weapons of prisoners of war.

Cui Hongsheng pointed to the military camp and shouted loudly: "Go into the military camp. Anyone who is not wearing armor is our enemy. Kill me!"

"Kill!"

The 20,000 Sui army prisoners roared, waving their iron bars toward the military camp at the foot of the mountain, and they rushed to the humiliation they suffered for more than two years. This moment broke out in everyone's heart.

...........

The sky gradually became brighter and the war ended. The barracks were full of corpses that were beaten to pieces by iron bars. Zhang Xuan could not stop the hatred of the prisoners of war. Hundreds of surrendered Goguryeo soldiers were beaten to death by angry Sui prisoners of war, and the bodies of dozens of generals, including the main general, were lifted up high.

Cheers suddenly broke out in the prisoner-of-war camp, and all the prisoners were extremely excited and hugged each other and cried. More than two years of humiliation, more than two years of oppression, and more than two years of longing for their family, they couldn't help themselves when they were free.

Zhang Xuan was in a bad mood. In this night battle, Sui army soldiers lost more than 150 people, which was the heaviest loss since he became the head of this army.

Cui Hongsheng seemed to understand his mood and patted his shoulder to comfort him: "You have done a good job. The Goguryeo army began to strengthen its vigilance three days ago. They set up layers of checkpoints. You can't escape, but in the end they defeated 4,000 people with one thousand people. The losses were only more than a hundred. The famous generals of ancient times were just like this."

"Mr. Cui's words made Zhang Xuan ashamed. If you hadn't led your army to kill him in time, it would be unknown who would have died tonight."

"Haha! You have to be polite. If your army had not restrained the enemy in the military camp, where could we seize weapons? I won't mention it. Let's talk about the important matter! What should we do next?"

Zhang Xuan also knew that time would not wait for them, and they had to start forming an army immediately. Zhang Xuan said to Cui Hongsheng: "We only have 30,000 people to attack Pyongyang this time, so the general decided to rescue the prisoners of war first, and select a group of elite troops from the prisoners to form the army as the side aid of the Sui army."

As he said that, Zhang Xuan handed the letter from Lai Hu'er to Cui Hongsheng. Cui Hongsheng didn't say a word. Lai Hu'er's intention was as expected. After reading the letter, he pondered for a moment: "Although we have 80,000 people, most of them are damaged. They have various injuries and diseases. There are not many soldiers who can immediately enter the battle, at most 20,000."

Come to Hu'er to get 30,000 elite troops, but now there are only 20,000 people, but 20,000 people are not bad. Zhang Xuan said: "Without any delay, we will set out to Seoul immediately!"

"Why do you want to go to Seoul?" Cui Hongsheng asked in confusion.

"The army needs equipment and needs replenishment. General Yuwen should have captured Seoul. We will go to Seoul first and then reorganize it in a simple way and then head north to Pyongyang immediately!"

Cui Hongsheng nodded slowly. Although he already had the idea of ​​retreating, he knew in his heart that if he didn't take the last step well, the emperor might not let him return to his hometown to retire as he wished.

"Okay! Let's have a break and then set off right away!"

The prisoners of war rested for half a day and had a good meal. In the afternoon, 80,000 Sui army prisoners of war led by Cui Hongsheng drove towards Seoul.
Chapter completed!
