Chapter 399 Today our army will capture Liaodong City
Chapter 399
As soon as these words came out, all the big bosses of the Sui army became dark-faced, even though Lai Hu'er and Zhou Fashang were quite friendly with them.
As for Yang Qian, a young boy, he had almost no interaction with them.
Originally, there were no entanglements or conflicts of interest, but now, things have changed because they captured the capital of Goguryeo and captured the king of Goguryeo alive.
"What the Marshal said is absolutely true. If Liaodong City is not captured today, what face will we have when we go to see His Majesty again?!"
Mai Tiezhang's face suddenly turned livid, and he roared angrily.
Yu Zhongwen had a gloomy face and sneered again and again. "That old dog Eulji Mundeok won't surrender today, so don't surrender."
Jing Yuanheng just silently tightened the big hand holding the sword at his waist. Xue Shixiong and Xin Shixiong were not much better...
Soon, a large number of important generals from the Sui army rushed out from the Emperor's Palace and galloped away on horseback.
The murderous look of this big shot in the army scared the guards who were guarding the line.
"What's going on? Who provoked these uncles?" One of the guards raised his elbow to his companion and asked curiously.
"Who knows, maybe it's because the Goguryeo people in Liaodong City are making trouble again and irritating Your Majesty. Naturally, His Majesty wants to spread the flames on them..."
"Shut up, everyone." Qianniu Beishen Chai Shao walked over with a dark face. "How can we discuss military and national affairs at will?"
"No!" The two guards shrank their necks in fright and shut up obediently.
Chai Shao glanced at the back of the murderous general, and the corners of his mouth dropped slightly. Haha...
Even if you smash the entire Liaodong City into rubble, so what? No matter what you do, it will not be able to equal the destruction of the country by that boy Yang Qian.
I never thought that that boy would be so favored by His Majesty.
"Chai Shao." Just when Chai Shao was thinking wildly, a call came from behind him.
"The last general has met General Yuwen." Chai Shao quickly saluted the visitor.
"Where did that kid Han Zhao go? Today is already the fourth day." Yuwen Chengji asked impatiently.
"Well, General Han said that he was not on duty at that time, so he wanted to hunt some game for the tooth festival. But he didn't expect that he hasn't come back yet, and I don't know if he got lost or something..."
"Hmph, what are you still doing? Send more people to look for him. Otherwise, I will definitely accuse him of slacking off and dereliction of duty."
"The general will obey his orders."

Eulji Wende was sitting on the couch, listening to the civil and military reports around him, and all he heard was bad news.
The civil servant who was ordered to repair the city wall reported the report with trepidation.
"The east city wall is now in ruins. It is too difficult to repair it, so I thought it would be better to erect another stone wall directly behind the east city wall..."
"How many manpower are needed? And it takes too long. I'm afraid that before your side is even halfway through, those Sui army's ten thousand thunderbolt chariots will move again."
Eulji Munduk impatiently stopped the quarrel and made a decision.
"At this time, we can repair as much as we can. Even if it cannot be the same as before, at any rate, it can still play a role in appeasing the morale of the military and the people."
"Dai Lu, let's go to war. If we don't go to war, our morale will be really low."
Black-toothed Lasa rushed out and said towards Eulji Mundeok.
"The Sui army's Wanjun Thunder Chariot is too fierce. Our Liaodong Fort cannot stop their attack at all."
"Instead of being trapped in the city like this at this moment, with the people howling and morale low, it is better to go out of the city and fight decisively."
Eulji Wende shook his head helplessly and said bitterly.
"The decisive battle... that's nice to say. Do you know how many Sui troops are outside the city? The company camp is dozens of miles away, and there are millions of soldiers."
"What can we do with less than 100,000 troops in our city? I'm afraid that if there is any slight movement, the Sui people's ten thousand thunderbolt chariots will attack."
"You can't fight if you fight, and you can't surrender if you surrender... Don't you understand what Liaodong City is for?"
"It is a stepping stone used to hold back the Sui army from attacking our hinterland of Goguryeo. If it can delay it for a day, then we will delay it for a day."
"I don't believe it. No matter how powerful the Sui Dynasty was, with millions of troops, the daily food consumption alone was an extremely terrifying figure."
"How long can they last?..."
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Eulji Wende's expression suddenly changed and he rushed out of the house quickly. He asked someone to bring a ladder and put it on the wall. He climbed up the ladder and looked around.
When I saw the sky above the city walls on all sides, large plumes of smoke and dust began to appear, and loud noises came from all directions.
Eulji Wende staggered and fell straight down, but fortunately, the soldiers below quickly caught him.
"Da Dui Lu, Da Dui Lu... Hurry, go and call the doctor."
After a long time under the doctor's treatment, Eulji Munduk finally woke up and looked around at the concerned faces.
Next to my ears, heavy stone bullets hitting the city wall, and the loud noises from the houses in the city seemed like an angry god.
Roaring angrily, stamping hard, sweeping through everything in Liaodong City, he wanted to destroy Liaodong City into ruins.
Eulji Munduk stood up tremblingly, looked at the ministers around him, and smiled helplessly.
"It seems that the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty finally couldn't bear it anymore and tore off his so-called gentleman's pretense of benevolence."
"What should happen next?"
"How? Of course we will fight to the death. Where's the Black Teeth Lasa?" Eulji Mundeok shouted with a livid face.
"Da Dui Lu, Black Teeth Lasa has rushed to the east city to set up defenses to prevent the Sui army from breaking in from there."
"Okay, Eulji Zhengguang, you lead five thousand troops and rush to the north city to support me. I will personally lead five thousand troops to the west city...Today, people are in the city! The city is broken and people are dead!"
"As you command!"

"Boom boom boom..."
At this moment, the Wanjun Thunderbolt chariots one after another have advanced to a distance of only fifty feet from the city wall.
Countless boulders weighing more than 1,000 kilograms crazily smashed into the city.
There were a total of two hundred Wanjun Pili chariots, fifty of which were allocated to each city wall. Countless soldiers and civilians carried stone bombs to the location of the Pili chariot formation.
Stone bullets were smashed into Liaodong City one by one as if they were free of charge.
The entire Liaodong City was in chaos. Xiao Shenzuo, who was supposed to be guarding the south city wall, had long been smashed into pieces that were difficult to see with the naked eye.
Black-toothed Lasa finally managed to organize a formation in the east city, but followed the madness of Wanjun's Thunderbolt Chariot.
His soldiers had begun to flee crying for their fathers and mothers, and he had to lead his troops back again and again in order to regroup and stabilize the position.
Just in front of the Wanjun Thunder Chariot Formation at the East Gate, there were fully ten thousand elite warriors wearing iron armor, holding a platoon in one hand and a long sword in the other hand.
Behind them were ten thousand spearmen, and behind them were ten thousand crossbowmen.
Every soldier stared at the completely collapsed city wall with red eyes, waiting for the bombardment of the tens of thousands of thunderbolt chariots to stop.
Yu Wenshu galloped to the front of the team and shouted loudly.
"Brothers, Lai Hu'er and others have captured the royal capital of Goguryeo and captured the king of Goguryeo alive."
"And if we can't even take down Liaodong City, how can we go to see His Majesty?"
"Today, our army will fall into Liaodong City. Anyone who dares to take a step back will be killed!"
"Bang the drum! Attack!"
"Great Sui, Wan Sheng!"
"Great Sui, Wan Sheng!" Thirty thousand iron-blooded elites roared to the sky in unison, and began to attack the east gate that had been razed to the ground...
