Yuan Gaisuwen was the eldest son of Yuan Taizuo, the Goguryeo Moli clan. He had a distinguished status and naturally had many close guards around him.

(PS: I want to apologize. When Xiao Lang just checked the information, he discovered that Yuan Taizuo should have been dead at this time, but if this problem is corrected, it will definitely affect the plot, so he can only make a confusing account to let him Live first, just think of it as the butterfly effect caused by the protagonist’s time travel.)

When these guards saw Yeon Gaesumun being swept off their horses, their expressions changed greatly, and they hurriedly rode forward and said, "Sui General, please don't harm the Crown Prince!"

The group of guards rushed forward and immediately divided into two groups. One group waved their weapons and stepped forward to surround Luo Shixin. The other group took the opportunity to rescue Yeon Gaesumun and fled behind the formation.

"A bunch of chickens and dogs are worthy of blocking my way?" Luo Shixin roared, and with the roar of the wind, the big iron gun in his hand swept left and right. In just a moment, these Yeon Gaesumun's guards were killed. They all fell off their horses.

After dealing with these obstacles, Luo Shixin looked up and looked around for traces of Yeon Gaesumun, but saw that he was fleeing to the flank surrounded by several other guards, and he immediately rushed his horse.

"Shi Xin, don't be obsessed with fighting." Qin Qiong hurriedly urged the horses to catch up and said in a deep voice: "The top priority is to lead the brothers to fight out, and leave the head of the Goguryeo thief behind until the next day!"

Although Luo Shixin was furious at the moment, he could still listen to Qin Qiong's words. After pondering for a moment, he nodded and rode out to kill Qin Qiong together.

As the number one general of Goguryeo, Yeon Gaesumun was shot down by Nao Shixin. How could the Goguryeo soldiers dare to try their best to intercept the Sui army, for fear that the limelight would be too great and attract Nao Shixin, the murderer.

. . . . . . . . . .

At the same time, Licheng County.

Shortly after Qin Qiong and Di Qing led their troops to leave, an army of 20,000 people suddenly came to Licheng County and surrounded the city. Soldiers and horses came and went, and for a while the sky was filled with dust, and the sound of people shouting and horses neighing was noisy.

A general with golden helmet and eagle eyes urged his horse out of the battle like stars over the moon. He stroked his beard and shouted: "Sui troops on the city, listen up. I am the Goguryeo general Eulji Mundeok. Now your commander-in-chief. Qin Qiong and his soldiers and horses have been surrounded by our army and the Tang army. It is expected that the whole army will be wiped out at this moment. If you know this, you will open the city and surrender early, otherwise, after the city is broken, there will be no chickens or dogs left!"

Zhang Shuye had already heard the news and walked up to the city wall at this time. When he heard Eulji Wende announcing his home, he suddenly felt that the sky was turning dark and the earth was dark. He secretly cried out: "This is a shame. Since entering Qingzhou, I have only thought about the neighboring country." Zhu Yuanzhang of Hebei Province may send troops, and almost all the scouts and spies are arranged along the Yellow River. I never expected that Goguryeo would be able to send troops across the sea. Generals Qin Qiong and Di Qing are in danger!"

"Do the people in the city understand? If we don't open the city and surrender, this general will order an attack on the city!" Eulji Wende seemed a little impatient and shouted again.

"Generals Qin Qiong, Di Qing, and Luo Shixin are all fierce generals. Although they were ambushed, they should be able to break out of the siege. However, if Eulji Wende is allowed to capture Licheng County, he will rely on the strong city to block the road. , Qin Qiong and the others will truly become the turtle in the urn."

Zhang Shuye quickly calmed down, grabbed the crossbow from a soldier nearby, opened the bow and shot the arrow at Ulji Wende: "Ulchi Wende, don't try to confuse the public with your lies here. . If you have the guts, come and attack the city. We, the Sui Dynasty, only have warriors who died in battle, and we will never have cowards who bow down and surrender to foreigners!"

"The rat is looking for death!" Eulji Wende blocked the sharp arrow with his sword, looked up at Zhang Shuye who was shooting the arrow with a ferocious look, waved his sword and shouted: "The whole army attacks the city, the first one to break the city will be rewarded." One thousand taels of gold!”

"Ouch! Kill!"

The eyes of the 20,000 Goguryeo soldiers immediately shone after the words were spoken, and they roared in unison, rushing toward Licheng County like a tide.

"Fire arrows to kill these barbarian thieves from Goguryeo!" Zhang Shuye drew his sword in his hand and shouted sternly.

The archers standing on the top of the city unloaded their arrows, loosened their fingers, and shot towards the Goguryeo army below the city.

However, Licheng County is now almost fully mobilized, with only more than 4,000 troops left behind. The Goguryeo army braved the rain of arrows, and after suffering hundreds of casualties, they fought their way to the bottom of the city wall, set up ladders, and everyone scrambled to climb up.

A burly general in iron armor brandished a steel gun to strike the eagle feathers, stepped on the ladder with both feet and stepped forward quickly. He climbed to the top of the city first and roared: "I am the Goguryeo general Yang Wanchun. I will die!"

"Quickly, kill him!" Zhang Shuye knew that he must kill the Goguryeo general who took the lead in rushing to the city wall as soon as possible at this time, otherwise the Goguryeo army's attack momentum will inevitably become stronger, and the city will most likely be unable to be defended.

"Ding dong, it has been detected that Yang Wanchun has entered the brave state, the force is +4, the basic force is 95, and the current force has increased to 99."

"Ding dong, the four-dimensional ability of Goguryeo's local general Yang Wanchun has been detected. Commander is 90, force is 95, intelligence is 78, and politics is 63."

Yang Wanchun was a fierce general in Goguryeo second only to Yeon Gaesumun. According to later folk legends, he once led an army to resist Tang Taizong Li Shimin, causing the arrogant Tian Khan to defeat the city.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the weather turned cold and the soldiers were not accustomed to the climate. As for the so-called legend that one of Li Shimin's eyes was shot out, that is pure nonsense.

In fact, Li Shimin led his army to conquer Goguryeo and the results far outweighed the losses. At that time, the Tang army defeated the ten cities of Xuantu, Hengshan, Gaimou, Momi, Liaodong, Baiyan, Beisha, Maigu, Yinshan, and Houhuang, and moved to Liao, Gai, and Yansanzhou has a population of 70,000. The three battles of Xincheng, Jian'an, and Zhuzhi were all successful, and the number of Goguryeo heads captured reached more than 40,000.

Moreover, even if he was frustrated at the foot of Anshi City guarded by Yang Wanchun, Li Shimin calmly responded. At that time, the Tang army even showed off its troops at the foot of Anshi City. No one in Anshi City could show their presence. There was no so-called tragic defeat at all.

Although there are a lot of fabricated plots in the legend, Yang Wanchun's martial prowess is real.

At present, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Di Qing and other brave generals are not in Licheng. Yang Wanchun has a sense of "there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings". He wields a steel gun to make the tigers and tigers fly, killing the Sui soldiers who blocked the road and retreating steadily.

"Hahaha, I often hear people say that the Sui army is full of powerful generals, but in my opinion they are nothing more than that. There are not even those who can take one of my shots!"

Yang Wanchun was invincible and couldn't help laughing. He strode down the corridor and rushed down the city, preparing to seize the city gate.

At this moment, a person suddenly appeared from the entrance of the corridor. The spear in his hand was as powerful as thunder, and he stabbed out as fast as lightning. "You dog thief from Goguryeo, take my spear!"

"Ding dong, it has been detected that Spartacus has entered the rapid state, the force is +6, the base force is 102, and the current force has increased to 108."
