It is very simple for the 200,000 Sui army to wipe out a small city like Tashan Mountain City. The soldiers who have been on the battlefield are prone to cause various distortions of personality and mental illnesses due to long-term mental tension. In modern times, some are called "post-war mental tension syndrome". Therefore, Li Bing issued the order to massacre the city, and on the one hand, they are also releasing the negative emotions in their hearts. Now they no longer live in Tashan Mountain City.

The second army's camp was stationed two miles northeast of Tashan Mountain City. There is no living person in Tashan Mountain City now. There are corpses everywhere. The streets in the city have been stained with blood. If it were placed in later generations, it would definitely be accused of extremely inhumane massacres, which can be compared with the infamous massacres of the Japanese invaders in later generations. However, in this era, although the behavior of the massacre of the city is outrageous, when facing the enemy, kindness is unbearable.

In the commander's tent, the generals sat down, and Li Bing summoned all the generals here to discuss the next step of the dispatch of troops. Li Bing first glanced at the generals sitting in the tent, and then said slowly: "Now our army is not very far from the Goguryeo Royal City, but there are still several cities. What we have to do now is to capture all the cities in a short time at all costs, approaching the Goguryeo Royal City. In front of us are three cities: Maruno Mountain City, Yanzhou Mountain City and Cuizhenbao Mountain City. These three cities are not very large in scale, slightly larger than Tashan Mountain City, but they are basically earthen walls. Which city we send troops to? I want to hear your opinions!"

"Reporting to the Marshal, the General of the Imperial City thought that our army should head towards Yanzhou Mountain City. For the other two cities, Maruntu Mountain City is far away from our current garrison, and the enemy can easily discover our intentions when traveling a long distance. Moreover, the march is too far away, which can easily cause physical fatigue in the soldiers. If you encounter an enemy attack on the way, you will easily be caught off guard by the enemy. The Cuizhenbao Mountain City is located in a straight line from Tashan Mountain City to Goguryeo Royal City. The enemy knows that we are coming from Liaoyang. Therefore, this straight line must be heavily guarded, and it is difficult to attack and can easily cause major casualties. Therefore, the General of the Imperial City is still more suitable to attack Yanzhou Mountain City, the closest to here!" Xue Wanshu stood up and said.

After hearing this, Li Bing nodded, and he still agreed with Xue Wanshu's statement. At this time, another general, Xu Ziying, general from the tent of Marshal Tangbi of Jinan Prefecture, stood up and said, "The General of the Mok agrees with General Xue's analysis, but when sending troops, the General of the Mok thought it would be better to march towards Marutou Mountain Castle. Because our army analyzed the current situation of these three cities, I believe that the enemy also analyzed it in this way. In their ideas, they would definitely follow the most normal idea. We think that we would choose Yanzhou Mountain Castle to send troops, but we can use this inertial thinking of the enemy to choose Marutou Mountain Castle and catch the enemy off guard. Moreover, Marutou Mountain Castle is closer to the capital of Goguryeo. After capturing Marutou Mountain Castle, we can directly kill the royal city of Goguryeo and force Goguryeo to surrender!"

"Well, you have more reason to say it. Does anyone have any different opinions?" Li Bing looked around. At this time, Luo Cheng also stood up and said, "The last general thought it would be better to attack Cuizhenbaoshan City, just like what you analyzed. Maybe the enemy would also analyze it like this. Just the general in Goguryeo, called Yizhi Wende, isn't he just a man who uses troops like a god? Maybe he has already predicted our actions. The so-called enemy thinks that the most impossible is precisely their weakness. The enemy thinks that Cuizhenbaoshan City has heavy troops to guard, so we will definitely not choose to attack Cuizhenbaoshan City. Then Cuizhenbaoshan City's defense must be very relaxed. We can seize the loopholes in the enemy's heart and send troops to Cuizhenbaoshan City. Eliminate the enemy's main force on the front line of the Liaoyang to Goguryeo Royal City, Marshal, what do you think of my suggestions?"

In fact, the war is about who can think of what the enemy did not expect. It is just a loophole. In fact, it is a game with countless lives. So in theory, the opinions of these people are very correct. Li Bing did not express his opinion. He just glanced at the audience and asked quietly: "Is there anyone else to say anything?" The generals below did not speak anymore. The three people who should say had already spoken, and the generals of the Dingbei Army did not express their opinion because Li Bing often summoned them alone to listen to their opinions. Seeing that everyone did not speak anymore, Li Bing asked them to retreat and kept all the generals of the Dingbei Army.

After all the generals retreated, Li Bing leaned lazily on the back of the chair, pillowed his hands behind his head, and said lazily, "You all have any opinions!"

The generals of the Dingbei Army were no longer surprised by Li Bing's appearance. Now the chief military advisor of the Dingbei Army, Changsun Wuji, who is most trusted by Li Bing, thought for a while, and first said: "Sanlang, I think we can attack Cuizhenbao Mountain City and Yanzhou Mountain City!"

"Oh?" Li Bing's face still looked like a man of Gu Jing. He looked at Changsun Wuji's fat body, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes. Li Bing smiled and said, "You are still keeping me indifferent. You fat man, okay, let me tell me any ideas!"

When Changsun Wuji heard Li Bing call him fat, he deliberately looked angry. However, seeing that everyone knew that he was pretending, he couldn't help but laugh twice before saying, "In fact, it's not difficult to win these two cities at the same time, just..." Changsun Wuji said this and deliberately elongated his voice to attract everyone's attention.

"Just you need your head, talk quickly!" Li Bing had lived with Changsun Wuji for so many years, and now he has become a friend and servant again, so there is no need to care about the two of them now. Li Bing jumped up from the chair and knocked Changsun Wuji's head. When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but laugh. In private, these senior generals of the Dingbei Army had a good relationship, so everyone didn't mind very much.

Changsun Wuji touched his head and said with a serious expression: "At present, we only need to divide the troops into two groups. These two cities are not as strong as those in Liaoyang City. Most of them are earthen cities built with stones and soil. Moreover, although the Goguryeo people are cunning, they are not very strong in combat. As long as they are cautious, there is no danger in dividing the troops into two groups. Attacking Yanzhou Mountain City, Yanzhou Mountain City will definitely not last long. Yanzhou Mountain City will inevitably ask for help from Cuizhenbao Mountain City, which has sufficient troops. In addition, they ambushed outside Cuizhenbao Mountain City. The Goguryeo people will definitely think that our army will do its best.

Attacking Yanzhou Mountain City, the reinforcements sent by Cuizhenbaoshan City will definitely not be too few. At this time, the guards of Cuizhenbaoshan City must be very empty. Our other army can take this opportunity to break Cuizhenbaoshan City in one fell swoop. As for the reinforcements sent by Cuizhenbaoshan City, they will definitely come back to regain the city after receiving the news that Cuizhenbaoshan City has lost its battle. However, the back and forth march will definitely not make the combat effectiveness of this exhausted army. At this time, the army of Yanzhou Mountain City is attacking us from front and back with our army guarding Cuizhenbaoshan City. The reinforcements of Cuizhenbaoshan City will inevitably not escape the fate of destruction!"

"Good plan!" Du Ruhui on the side couldn't help but praise, and Fang Xuanling and others nodded. Li Bing carefully considered Changsun Wuji's plan, and thought it was more feasible, so he nodded and agreed, and then the group began to plan in detail according to this plan.

"Young Marshal, the general is willing to lead 5,000 troops to help the young Marshal take down Marutou Yama Castle!" While everyone was discussing, Xu Shiji, who had not spoken just now, suddenly stood up and spoke.

"Huh?" Li Bing narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Shiji in front of him. Xu Shiji bravely met Li Bing's gaze, with determination and heat flashing in his eyes, "Just 5,000 soldiers? Are you so sure?" Although Li Bing knew that Xu Shiji's ability was comparable to Li Jing, who was known as the God of War, it was just because he was not as sharp as Li Jing, but Xu Shiji is still very young now, and Li Bing hesitated for a moment.

"Young Marshal, you only need to give me five thousand soldiers. I will definitely take down Marutou Mountain Castle for you. Young Marshal, you only need to continue to implement the plan of Lord Changsun. Due to our army's actions in Yanzhou Mountain Castle and Cuizhenbao Mountain Castle, the attention of the enemy of Marutou Mountain Castle will definitely be attracted by these two cities. I will definitely not expect that someone will run long distances to raid them. Therefore, I will be 100% sure to take down Marutou Mountain Castle for the Young Marshal! I am willing to issue a military order. If I can't take Marutou Mountain Castle, I will never come back to see the Young Marshal!" Xu Shiji said with a firm look on his face.

"Okay, there is no joke in the army. Since you are so confident, I will follow you as you say. I will give you five thousand Black Wind Cavalry!" The Black Wind Cavalry is the name of the Dingbei Army cavalry. Because the Dingbei Army is covered with black armor, it is therefore named. Li Bing thought about it for a while and added: "Qin Yong and Tie Fei, you should follow Maogong too. If there are too many people, it is better to do things. Maogong is resourceful. I believe him. You must both of you to obey his orders this time! This mission is a secret operation. Don't tell anyone. When our army sets off, you can quietly raid on Marutou Mountain Castle!"

Xu Shiji, Qin Yong and Tie Fei below nodded and said yes. Everyone discussed the specific details together and did not leave until the dark.

On the second day, Li Bing issued a series of orders according to the combat plan agreed yesterday, and distributed 80,000 troops to the deputy commander Luo Cheng, who led the command to attack Yanzhou Mountain City, while he led the remaining 120,000 people to ambush outside the Cuizhen Fort Mountain City. Li Bing believed that although Luo Cheng was not in harmony with him, he would not joke about the war at this time, so he gave him 80,000 troops with confidence. Of course, most of the 80,000 troops were Luo Cheng's forces, and I believe that Luo Cheng would not ignore his subordinates.

The army divided into two groups and headed in two different directions. On the way of the march, Xu Shiji and others quietly left the team without knowing their knowledge and headed straight for Marutou Mountain Castle.
