"Did you run away?"
Zhang Sheng's eyes flashed with brilliance. really. The battle during the day was very clear. Goguryeo marched in such hot weather without spies as eyes and ears.
It is better to take advantage of the cool night and quickly head towards the Yalu River along the road.
"yes."
immediately. Zhang Sheng stood up in response and immediately went down to make arrangements.
A general is useless in such a battle. Wu Nian did not go out to the battle. He asked someone to get a copy of Wei Wuji's book on war. He sat in his seat and read the book with a lamp on, calmly and calmly.
As time passed, there were sounds of killing outside the camp.
Getting weaker and weaker.
on the road. The flag with the character "Zhao" fluttered in the breeze. Zhao Mancheng is riding on a horse, with a silver spear and white armor, and is still as majestic as ever.
But his vigor was not as strong as before, and his brows were deeply furrowed. From time to time, he turned his head and looked in the direction of Wu Nian's four camps.
"Report to the general. General Chen led his troops to attack the camp on Wu Nian Mountain. Because of the steep mountain, many people fell to death due to instability. The soldiers suffered heavy casualties."
"Report to the general. General Zhang led his troops to attack the camp on Wu Nian Mountain. There were many casualties. However, the Wu Nian camp did not reveal any flaws."
The cavalry crisscrossed the road, bringing back news from all directions. Zhao Mancheng's face turned gloomy.
"Hey." Zhao Mancheng sighed, finally showing the slightest trace of decadence. I thought that Wu Nian might let down his guard after winning consecutively.
This is a great opportunity to turn defeat into victory.
But Wu Nian did not relax at all and was suddenly attacked. Not even one of the four camps panicked, they were as stable as Mount Tai.
It's as stable as a mountain.
Zhao Mancheng took a deep breath, cheered up, and shouted: "Send the order. Withdraw the troops. Let's catch up with the general. Go back to Goguryeo."
Although I am not willing to give in, I can only stop here.
"yes."
The soldier responded and immediately went down to deliver the order. Not long after. The killing sounds everywhere weakened, and Zhao Mancheng gathered his troops and chased Li Yunchong along the path.
Wu Nian Military Camp.
Inside the Chinese army's tent. Wu Nian put down the book in his hand and listened.
"Run away." Wu Nian sneered, then stood up and ordered: "Let Zhang Sheng guard the camp. Deploy three soldiers from Qianhu to pursue with me."
Zhang Sheng just walked in from the outside. Hearing this, he frowned and said to Wu Nian: "General. You can't see clearly at night. Be careful about Zhao Mancheng's ambush."
"It doesn't matter. I won't chase Zhao Mancheng. I'll take a remote road to chase Li Yunchong. Zhao Mancheng even took advantage of the night to set up an ambush somewhere. There's nothing he can do to me."
Wu Nian waved his hand and said.
"Yes." Zhang Sheng felt relieved after hearing this and said yes.
After a long time, the soldiers from three thousand families arrived. Wu Nian and Zhang Sheng walked out of the tent. Wu Nian got on his horse, and Zhang Sheng picked up the horse spear and handed it to Wu Nian.
Wu Nian stretched out his hand to grab Ma Shan and explained: "Zhao Mancheng should not be underestimated, he might come back. You have to be careful."
"General, don't worry. I know how powerful he is." Zhang Sheng solemnly clasped his fists and said.
"Yes." Wu Nian nodded, then reined in his horse and shouted to three soldiers from thousands of households: "Brothers, show your strength. When it comes to crossing mountains and ridges, we Liaodong people, who It’s not false either.”
"yes."
Soldiers from three thousand households responded positively and shouted yes. immediately. The soldiers lined up neatly and surrounded Wu Nian out of the camp gate in an orderly manner. Under the leadership of the guide, they took a remote path to chase Li Yunchong.
...........
Whether it’s a mountain road or marching with heavy loads.
As long as it is exercise that consumes physical energy. Wu Nianjun will not lose to any army. The mountain people have a good foundation, good food, and good training on weekdays.
Wang Gui and Tieniu camped to the north of Li Yunchong. After receiving Wu Nian's military order, they led thousands of soldiers and took a small road to chase east.
They also sent cavalry to investigate the situation first.
Although it is dark now, it is difficult to find out the details. But it was easy to detect such a big move as Li Yunchong leading tens of thousands of elite troops to withdraw.
Along the way. The cavalry crisscrossed the road, and intelligence flowed in continuously.
Wang Gui and Tieniu soon knew where Li Yunchong's army was and what its approximate size was. They took a shortcut, chased, and finally caught up.
A small road that connects to the main road.
Flags with the characters "king" and "iron" are erected high. Tens of thousands of soldiers gathered on the path in dense numbers. Because of the urgency of pursuit, the soldiers breathed heavily and tried their best to adjust.
Wang Gui and Tieniu listened, but they had no intention of giving up.
Although their soldiers consumed a lot of physical strength, the Goguryeo soldiers were even more frightened.
soon. A spy galloped from the front, stood in front of Wang Gui and Tieniu's horses, and reported breathlessly: "Two captains, one-third of the Goguryeo army has passed."
"Okay." Tieniu's eyes brightened, and he struck halfway, cutting off the attack back and forth.
"Brothers, follow me and cripple the Goguryeo people." Tieniu raised the horse's shaft, shouted loudly, clamped his feet on the horse's belly, and galloped forward.
Soldier Wu Nianjun took a deep breath, stopped panting, and chased after him with all his strength. Wang Gui rode his horse and walked in the middle of the team.
...........
On the avenue. The Goguryeo army headed east at a faster speed. They have maintained this marching speed for a long time.
His physical strength gradually declined.
There were also wounded soldiers among them, as well as soldiers suffering from heatstroke.
Under the banner of "李". Li Yunchong held a silver gun with a vigilant expression. From time to time he turned his head to look at the mountains on both sides of the road, fearing that a fierce tiger would suddenly appear.
Just then.
Some Goguryeo soldiers heard the sound of Wu Nian's army marching.
"There are people. There is a large group of people." The Goguryeo soldier's expression changed drastically and he shouted.
The Goguryeo soldiers suddenly became tense and quickly stopped to prepare for battle.
"Can't you get away like this?" Li Yunchong's heart sank, and veins popped up on the backs of his hands holding the silver gun. But he quickly calmed down.
The battlefield is changing rapidly, and everything that happens is normal.
"Don't be afraid. The enemy has allocated manpower to guard the camp, and the number of soldiers who come to attack us will not be too many. The soldiers follow their superiors closely and rely on their carts to fight the enemy."
Li Yunchong took a deep breath and roared.
"Kill!!!!!!!!!" Just as he finished his roar, the roar of an iron bull came from the north, and then the killing sounds came one after another, as if countless beasts were roaring and charging towards him.
Before the war started, the Goguryeo soldiers were already a little panicked.
"Whoosh whoosh!!!!"
The first ones to fight were still the archers from both sides. The Goguryeo archers, with the help of a little moonlight, fired arrows at Wu Nianjun, who was attacking in the dark.
“Swish swish!!”
The archers of Wu Nianjun also fired arrows at the Goguryeo army.
But it's the same as fighting during the day.
Wu Nianjun was the attacking party, and the front row was full of armored soldiers, so it was not a big problem to be hit by arrows. The two sides quickly approached.
The Goguryeo soldiers saw ferocious faces through the moonlight.
