In 612 AD, Zhuojun,
The Sui Dynasty was gathering an army of 300,000 troops, preparing to launch an offensive against Goguryeo.
From joining the army to now, Pei Xingyan's original serious expression has become more and more numb.
He had thought that there was a problem in Sui Dynasty, but he did not expect that the problem would be so serious.
Because in the eyes of the lower-level soldiers, their so-called war for the country has become an insignificant matter.
Yang Guang's marching troops were lined up, stretching 400 kilometers, day and night. As the serving civil servants fled and became thieves, he ordered the captain, Ying Yang, and the counties along the way to jointly pursue them, and those caught were immediately beheaded and executed.
Due to the large number of people, it took a total of 40 days for all the troops to set off and complete.
In April, he arrived at Linshuo Palace in Zhuo County.
Think about it, is this an expedition? Isn’t this a spring outing?
Lu Yan was asked to say that if he was given thirty thousand cavalry, he would not be worthy of being a general unless he broke the necks of Goguryeo's Yeon Gaesumun and King Yang.
Well, he is indeed not a general now, he and Pei Xingyan are just the two leading soldiers!
That kind of big scalp in the true sense can be called cannon fodder on the battlefield!
After all, you have nothing to do and no background. If you want to join the army and become an official, wake up, get up and kill the enemy!
In May, the army began to attack Goguryeo.
As the leading soldiers, Lu Yan and Pei Xingyan can be said to be the big brothers in the army. After all, Pei Xingyan looks tall and strong at first glance and is very good at fighting. Can this not be a good relationship?
As for Lu Yan, he fully demonstrated the characteristics of a veteran, that is, I may not do what you ask me to do, but if you ask me to kill people, I will definitely rush faster than the cavalry!
An encounter on the vast land,
Pei Xingyan held an armor-breaking hammer and smashed the Goguryeo cavalry in front of him away, then stepped forward with his hammers waving, like a god of war,
Looking at this scene, Lu Yan stood behind him, bending his bow and nocking an arrow.
"Boohoo!"
After several roars, the Goguryeo cavalry quickly fell down, with no signs of life at all.
"Look at you, you've spent so much time and effort, can't you just do it with one person and one arrow? You've made so many fancy moves!"
After saying that, Lu Yan turned around and said, "Take a look at these old haters and see if there are any surprises!"
Just as Lu Yan finished speaking, the soldiers waiting nearby swarmed up and began to raise and lower their hands on the Goguryeo scouts.
Because as early as after entering Goguryeo, such encounters became common.
Usually it's the Ye Bu Shui guys in the front who are fighting each other.
But it can’t prevent Goguryeo from acting rogue and sneaking attacks on the troops in the rear.
Because the opponent is a cavalry, they only need to harass them to bring the subsequent large troops and civilians to a standstill.
Lu Yan's battalion didn't know who their general was, but the order given to them by the general was to wander outside the camp and be responsible for reconnaissance missions.
People didn't expect Lu Yan and the others to defeat the Goguryeo scouts head-on and use them as cannon fodder.
But except for Lu Yan and Pei Xingyan, no one knew.
"Human, sometimes it's really helpless!"
With a piece of "sweet grass root" in his mouth, Lu Yan couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Goguryeo, under Hengshan City, a large army gathered,
After working for so long, everyone finally arrived at the first city to be attacked.
However, Hengshan City is not easy to fight, because there is Xincheng next to it, which is the horn of each other, and there are Xuantu City and Guiduan City on the other side of the river.
There is also Nansu City not far away.
These five cities are the first line of defense faced by the Sui Dynasty. If these five cities cannot be completely conquered, even if one or two of them are captured, they will definitely be taken back by Goguryeo in the future. This is a complete risk of human life.
Without the heavy armor of the past, Lu Yan and Pei Xingyan held shields and escorted the cloud car.
"Are you afraid? Pei Xingyan!"
Looking at Pei Xingyan with a smile on his face, Lu Yan raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.
It seems that he has not been so excited for a long time, as if he has returned to the pre-Qin period, the Battle of Changping, when he, as a slave, followed his brothers to face the Zhao cavalry, the feeling of fighting for his life!
"not afraid!"
Looking at Lu Yan with a determined expression, Pei Xingyan spoke domineeringly,
And just behind, the war drums sounded, and the army began to move,
As the siege team advanced, the Goguryeo army in Hengshan City also showed no signs of weakness and fired arrows all over the sky.
Raising the shield in his hand, Lu Yan laughed and marched into the rain of arrows.
It seemed that he hadn't enjoyed this feeling for a long time. It was so exciting!
Seeing Lu Yan laughing and moving forward, Pei Xingyan couldn't help but show a "subway old man" expression. How come the King of the Western Regions started going crazy before this even started? Is this guy scared?
Lu Yan: Am I afraid? In the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi transferred me to the rear even though I could kill him. What does Goguryeo mean to me?
And just as the cloud cart hooked the city wall above, the drum sound from behind began to change,
Realizing that this was the sound of an siege, Lu Yan lifted up his shield, then rushed up the ladder with his long sword in hand.
Seeing how fast Lu Yan was, Pei Xingyan was also surprised, and then quickly followed him.
"Brother, kill!"
With a roar, the Sui soldiers in the rear couldn't help but roar,
As the arrows from behind began to suppress the city, Lu Yan was already halfway through the charge.
"Roll the stone and smash the Sui people down!"
"We must not let him attack the city!"
The Goguryeo soldiers just above roared angrily, while Lu Yan held a long sword and waved it with his backhand.
"Wow!"
Under the dazzling light, I saw that the wood was directly cut off,
Rushing to the top of the city, Lu Yan smiled and said, "Axiba, you little bastards, please remind me of your fear!"
Waving his sword and stepping forward, Lu Yan opened a passage directly above, allowing the soldiers from behind to rush forward.
Directing the battle not far away, Yu Wenhuaji said with a look of astonishment: "Whose subordinate is this? How could there be such brave soldiers?"
"Reporting to your lord, they are Yangzhou soldiers!"
Looking at Yu Wenhuaji, the general next to him quickly explained,
After hearing these words, Yu Wenhuaji's eyes flashed and said: "This man is brave and should be under my command!"
"Yes, sir, I understand!"
Thinking that Yu Wenhuaji probably became interested after seeing him, he couldn't help but secretly said: "This kid's life is really good!"
As the leading soldier who ascended first, he was actually noticed by Yu Wenhuaji!
On the top of the city, Lu Yan held a knife in his left hand and a spear in his right hand, directly starting the unparalleled mode of the Sixteen Kingdoms period.
Use your spear to stop the enemy, use your broadsword to harvest,
As he advanced, blood spread like a tide,
At this moment, a person roared: "Do you think we, Goguryeo, have no one? Sui people!"
He rushed out angrily, and the other party came directly towards Lu Yan, with two knives on his back.
And this person is none other than Yeon Gaesumun.
He was originally directing the battle, but when he saw that the wall here was about to be captured by the Sui army, he immediately panicked and planned to kill the Sui warriors in front of him with his own hands.
But just after Yeon Gaesumun appeared, Lu Yan blocked his sword with a backhand shot.
However, the knife in his right hand appeared as fast as lightning and slit his throat directly.
Don't underestimate Lu Yan's "ruthlessness" during the Sixteen Kingdoms period. His moves were all honed in fighting.
When Yeon Gaesumun covered his neck, looked at Lu Yan in disbelief, and then collapsed to the ground,
I saw Lu Yan passing by Yuengai Suwen and said: "I thought it was some kind of thing. There are two knives on the back, but it turns out to be a silver-headed wax gun. Bah, what an unlucky thing!"
