Chapter 469 Reinforcement is coming

Guan Yu arranged the defense work of the camp. Fan Chou was responsible for logistics, Li Jue was responsible for the vigilance around the camp, Yang Feng was responsible for the overall defense work, and Yang Xian led 5,000 infantrymen to a valley five miles north of the camp to serve as a surprise soldier.

After arranging the defense matters, on the same day, Guan Yu and the Right King led 5,000 elite Xiongnu cavalry to leave the camp, first went west, and then turned to the north. The reason for going west first was to confuse the Goguryeo people's detailed work. At the same time, in order to cover the movements of Guan Yu's troops, Yang Feng led 30,000 infantry of the Seventh Army to feign themselves to the south.

Goguryeo Camp on the east bank of the Luan River.

Tie Pohan and a group of Goguryeo generals discussed military affairs in front of the map in the big tent. Tie Pohan pointed and said on the map, and occasionally other generals inserted a sentence or two. A scout suddenly came in to report: "General, the West Bank's detailed rewards said that the Northern Expedition Army had taken action!"

The big tent immediately became quiet, and more than a dozen eyes fell on Tie Pohan.

Tie Pohan asked the scout urgently: "What is the Northern Army doing?"

The scout reported: "Thirty thousand infantrymen of the Northern Army are heading south, and I don't know where the destination is!"

Tie Pohan frowned and looked thoughtful. Back in front of the map, he pointed his finger at the position of the Northern Army Camp on the map, slowly descended, and left the map with his fingers. The doubts on his face became even stronger. Tie Pohan couldn't help but murmur: "What is Guan Yu's idea?"

Jin Yang clasped his fists to Tie Po Han and said, "General, has Guan Yu already encountered a breakthrough somewhere downstream?"

Tie Pohan looked at the Luan River on the map that divided the situation between the two sides, slowly shook his head and said, "Impossible! Our army is currently tripling the Northern Army. The Northern Army crosses the river and fights with me as a decisive battle! Moreover, due to the Luan River, if the Northern Army attacks are unfavorable, it will inevitably be difficult to retreat!"

The generals nodded with deep understanding.

At this time, the fourth prince Li Chenghuan, who had not made a sound, said with a sneering look: "Maybe the Han people want to be similar to the King of Western Chu that was hundreds of years ago!"

Tie Pohan glanced at Li Chenghuan and said coldly: "If it was the main force of the Zhengbei Army in front of us, it would not be impossible!" After this period of battle and detailed information lurking in Shanggu and other places, Tie Pohan and others already knew that the only one who fought with them was the worst group of troops in the Zhengbei Army. In addition to the servant army of foreign races, such as the Xiongnu army, the surrendered army that was defeated by the Zhengbei Army in the Central Plains battlefield. After learning this news, Tie Pohan and others felt both glad and frightened. Fortunately, the Zhengbei Army was unable to mobilize the main force to fight north for the time being. What was frightened was that the second-rate troops in the Zhengbei Army could confront them across the river with far fewer people than them.

Li Chenghuan heard the sarcasm contained in Tie Pohan's words, but he did not get angry like he did in the past. Li Chenghuan yawned and said lazily: "What you said may make sense. But if there is any reason, don't care about my business!" Yu Luo, and he actually left the tent with scheming.

Tie Pohan glanced at Lee Seung-hwan's back, showed a hint of sneer, and then a trace of loss rose in his heart. To a certain extent, his mood at this moment was the same as Lee Seung-hwan.

After Lee Seung-hwan left, the tent became cold for a moment, and then Tie Po Han and his generals continued to discuss the matter.

Finally, Tie Po Han decided to hold on to the army without moving and watching the changes.

...

On the official road from Changli County to Liaoxi County, a team was advancing at a rapid speed. On both sides of the marching queue, there were foreign generals who were constantly urging themselves everywhere, screaming, very anxious and excited.

This team was very large, with four groups of troops marching, with a length of several miles in front and back, with a total of 200,000 people.

The outfit of this army did not agree with it. Nearly half of them were wearing animal leather armor, with simpler graphics and equipment than others, but their momentum was the most powerful. The remaining half were very similar to the Han people, but their temperament was completely different from that of the Han people, and they were very ostentatious...

, very self-righteous; their armored clothes were imitated by the Han army, and most of the weapons in their hands were imitated by the Han ring sword. The armored clothes of these people were divided into five types, including the color used by the Goguryeo people - green. Although the momentum of these troops was not as good as those armed in animal leather armor, the queues they marched were much neat, and basically no one would whisper when marching. It can be seen that their discipline was much stronger than those armed in animal leather armor.

The handsome flag was marching in the center of the team, with a large "Li" embroidered on it. Under the handsome flag, a Goguryeo general wearing exquisite armor and cloud-brown battle robe was walking slowly. This Goguryeo general was not as burly as others, but seemed very slender. When he looked closely, he turned out to be a woman, and he was a very beautiful woman. She was wearing armor, not as full of heroic spirit as Zhang Rui, Sun Ren and others, but seemed very weak. The armor on her body not only did not add heroic spirit to her, but instead highlighted her softness even more. A dozen generals surrounded her, many people peeked at her intentionally or unintentionally. One of the burly generals wearing animal leather armor was staring at her, looking obsessed with her mouth slightly open, and her saliva was flowing out.

This beautiful woman in armor is the eldest princess of Goguryeo mentioned in the previous article. Li Muqing is almost twenty-seven years old, but she still has no marriage. The young heroes in Goguryeo and the heroes who claim to be in the surrounding countries. Of course, this does not include the great man. They all try their best to win her favor. However, so far, this arrogant eldest princess has not found the ideal princess in her mind. She once publicly claimed that, "The only one who can be worthy of me, Li Muqing!" But I don't know what she calls the "real hero" meant by her so-called "real hero".

At this moment, Li Muqing was frowning slightly, and the information about the Northern Army echoed in her mind. Although the troops in her hands were several times that of the Northern Army, she did not feel relaxed at all. She thought that this battle seemed to be without suspense, but it was actually very dangerous. Although the Northern Army lacked enough troops, the Northern Army stood with the advantage of the right place and the superiority of the Northern Army, and his own troops were only more powerful than the other side! What Li Muqing was most worried about was that if he could not quickly fight and resolve the Northern Army in western Liaoning, the main force of the Northern Army would join the battlefield at a certain point! Li Muqing didn't want to confront the main force of the Northern Army. Even if he fought, he had to completely control the seven counties in Liaodong.

"Princess, it's time to have a meal!" The general wearing animal leather armor said in a very gentle tone with a diligent look on his face. The other generals looked at the general with fierce eyes. Many people showed hatred, while some people showed regret.

Li Muqing came to his senses, looked up at the sky, frowned and said, "No! Now is not the time to eat! Before the sun sets, the entire army must not stop advancing!"

The beast-skin warrior said with great concern: "Of course there is no problem with us men! But the princess is a golden body with a golden branch and a jade leaf, how can she suffer such fatigue?"

As soon as the general's words finished, everyone agreed. The scene immediately seemed a little noisy.

Li Muqing frowned slightly, and the disgust flashed in his eyes.

Li Muqing glanced at the men in front of him who tried hard to show himself and said loudly: "My generals, Mu Qing is not tired as a woman. Are you not even as good as Mu Qing?"

The generals immediately changed their tone and patted their chests to show their masculinity.

Li Muqing showed admiration on his face, but he shook his head and sighed in his heart.

In the evening of that day, the army entered the territory of Liaoxi County. It was already late at this time, and Li Muqing ordered the army to rest for a night and sent a message to rush to the Central Army camp where Tiepo Han was.

Just as it was dawn, the quick horse sent by Li Muqing returned and brought back Tie Pohan's letter.

At the hour of Mao, the army set off the camp and continued to move westward. Everyone seemed very relaxed, only Li Muqing's face was solemn.

At noon, the army was only more than ten miles away from Qinglong River. Li Muqing...

Ask the pathfinder beside you: "There is Qinglong Mountain ahead?"

The scout of the way replied: "Report to the princess, Qinglong Mountain is ten miles ahead. This mountain is not big, and it is named after it is located on the banks of Qinglong River. After crossing Qinglong River, you can reach General Tie's military camp in another hour!"

Li Muqing nodded.

At this moment, several fast horses came towards him. The knight came to Li Muqing and strangled the war horses. The leader turned over and reported: "Your Highness, the villain is the commander under the command of the general. I came to report to Your Highness, the general, who is leading 20,000 iron cavalry to welcome him on the west bank of the Qinglong River!"

Li Muqing said calmly: "I understand. You can repay General Tie."

"Yes!" The messenger Yingnuo said, then stepped onto the war horse and galloped away.

Li Muqing looked ahead and ordered the messenger beside him: "Transfer the entire army and accelerate the advance!"
