"That's right! General, since Guan Ning is so powerful, why didn't Gongsun Du ask him to become an official?" After talking for a long time, he didn't hear Zhao Yun's reaction. Song Xian was also very bored, so he just took it like this.
The conversation was boring. After a while, Song Xian started talking again.
Zhao Yun also felt helpless. Each of these generals from Bingzhou had more character than the last. Either they were like Song Xian and Wei Xu who couldn't sit still and were impatient, or they were like Gao Shun and Cao Xing who couldn't be beaten with three sticks.
What a boring gourd. With such a group of people in the past few years, if it weren't for Zhang Liao, a good helper, Zhao Yun would have gone crazy! But now Zhang Liao is not around, Zhao Yun can only deal with it by himself.
, Zhao Yun picked up a weed beside him, held it in his mouth, and replied casually: "I heard from Xiaozhi and the others that Guan Ning is indifferent to fame and wealth and has never been willing to serve in an official position! From what they said, it seems that they want Guan Ning to recruit him.
Under the lord’s account, this will be of great benefit to improving the lord’s reputation!”
"Ah!" Wei Xu also whispered in surprise, then shook his head and said: "So that bad old man is really so powerful! If it were me, I would have agreed to Gongsun Du a long time ago, why bother?
Come here and suffer!”
When Song Xian heard Wei Xu's words, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Fuck you! If it were you, Gongsun Du, the mighty Marquis of Liaodong, would come all over the world to curry favor with you? This is what he pretends to be! I
Look, if this old man goes to find Gongsun Du now, I'm afraid Gongsun Du will jump up and down with joy! As for you, hehe!"
As soon as he heard Song Xian's words, Wei Xu's face immediately darkened, and he yelled: "Smelly boy! A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory! It seems that you haven't been punished for a long time! Wait until the beating is over.
Let’s have a good fight!”
"Huh! Just with your little ability?" Song Xian laughed and cursed. He and Wei Xu have been friends for many years. Among all the Bingzhou generals, Song Xian has the strongest relationship with Wei Xu and Hou Cheng, so he said
It doesn't matter if you make some harmless jokes online, no one will take them seriously.
Zhao Yun heard Song Xian and Wei Xu's joke and didn't take it to heart. Suddenly, Zhao Yun's eyes lit up, but he turned to look at Song Xian and said hurriedly: "Song Xian! What did you just say?
With?"
"Uh!" Zhao Yun suddenly behaved uncharacteristically, which made both Song Xian and Wei Xu stunned. They looked at Zhao Yun with wide eyes. It took a long time before he came back to his senses and said hesitantly: "I
, what did I just say?" Song Xian was obviously frightened by Zhao Yun's appearance, and he even forgot what he had just said.
However, Song Xian forgot, but Zhao Yun did not forget. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said with a smile: "That's right! Let's do it! Haha! Is it really a blessing in disguise? In this way, maybe
It’s even better than the original plan!”
Zhao Yun was muttering by himself, but Song Xian and Wei Xu were confused. They could only look at Zhao Yun and giggle. Wei Xu hesitated for a moment, and was about to ask, but suddenly
An exclamation came from the side: "General! Look! The target has appeared!"
Hearing this exclamation, Zhao Yun and the other two people all raised their heads and looked towards the east. Sure enough, on the horizon, a dark shadow was slowly moving this way. Song Xian squinted his eyes and looked at the
Shadow stuck out his tongue and touched his lips, with an excited look on his face, and said, "Hey! These damn Goguryeo people are finally here!"
Wei Xu also clenched his fists hard, nodded and said: "Humph! It looks like there are quite a lot of people coming! A total of seven or eight thousand people! Tsk! Fortunately, we were prepared beforehand. If we had a head-on confrontation,
I really can’t beat these guys!”
Zhao Yun, on the other hand, straightened his face, temporarily put his previous thoughts behind, turned to Song Xian and Wei Xu and shouted: "Okay! Now that the target has appeared, let's start preparations! You follow the plan and lead them.
Let the soldiers mount their horses! As soon as the opponent enters the predetermined position, we will start to attack! We must overwhelm the enemy's formation in one go!"
"Here!" Song Xian and Wei Xu immediately saluted Zhao Yun with clasped fists, then turned around and walked down the hill, found their mounts, and got on their horses. But Zhao Yun continued to stay on the hill, lying there tightly.
Keep an eye on the enemy troops in the distance as they approach Xuantu City little by little!
The commander of the Goguryeo army this time was Goguryeo's general Gaozong. The Gao family name is the surname of the royal family in Goguryeo. Naturally, Gaozong is also a member of the royal family. In terms of seniority, he can be regarded as the uncle of the current king of Goguryeo.
.However, although this Gaozong is a member of the royal family, he is not a drunkard. Although he is not a famous general, he can be regarded as a mediocre talent. Gaozong acted extremely calmly, so he also won the trust of the current king of Goguryeo.
Entrusted with an important task, the King of Goguryeo sent him to command the battle against Xuantu City this time, which shows that Goguryeo still attaches great importance to this battle.
But this Gaozong has a weakness, that is, his incompetent son is completely different from Gaozong. Gaozong's son has been eating, drinking and having fun since he was a child. He is a complete playboy and has caused many troubles since he was a child.
, if his father, Gaozong, had not been in a high position, he would have died a long time ago! Although he was angry with him, he was his son after all, and Gaozong could not let him go. Since his son did not live up to his expectations, then
Only I came to help. According to common sense, it should be a sure thing to attack Xuantu City this time. Gaozong simply transferred his son to the army, so that through this battle, his son could also gain some merit, and he would be able to rely on it in the future.
With these achievements, there would be no problem in living in Goguryeo.
Gaozong was thinking about his son like this, but he didn't expect that his bastard son was really unworthy. He just wanted to stay in the army and enjoy the credit, but this bastard just couldn't sit still and secretly followed Gaozong first.
The spies sent to Xuantu City ran away! After Gaozong learned about this, he was very angry. After all, there was no garrison in Xuantu City, so just go. He never thought that his son would not be there when he left.
After hearing the reply, Gaozong felt a little bad. After waiting for a whole night, Gaozong couldn't sit still anymore. He picked up the army, accelerated the march and rushed towards Xuantu City. In this way, it was enough.
We arrived at Xuantu City two or three days early.
Looking at Xuantu City in the distance, it was as calm as usual. Gaozong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that nothing had changed! I wonder if his bastard son had robbed a few people in Xuantu City.
Han women, have you forgotten your time while playing? The more Gaozong thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Suddenly, the anger came out of his heart: This bastard really failed to live up to expectations! I will catch him later and have to teach him a lesson.
No! Having made up his mind, Gaozong also waved his hand and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Quick! Speed up! Lest those Chinese pigs notice, we will attack in one go!" After saying that, Gaozong took the lead and let go.
The horse drove towards Xuantu City.
Emperor Gaozong was in such a hurry that he forgot to send a few scouts to investigate the surroundings first. In this way, the army marched directly towards Xuantu City. Naturally, he did not notice that there was an extra hill next to Xuantu City!
In fact, it’s no wonder that Gaozong would let his guard down so much. In the past few years, every time the Goguryeo army looted Xuantu City, they encountered no resistance. Just last month, a small team of only one or two hundred people under Gaozong was like this.
He majestically rushed into Xuantu City to plunder, and came back completely victorious! Such a record made Gaozong subconsciously give up any vigilance measures, and just wanted to capture Xuantu City as soon as possible and find his living treasure son.
Come!
Although the Goguryeo army was all infantry, it was not too slow. Under the leadership of Gaozong, it quickly arrived at a position only two or three miles outside Xuantu City. Gaozong could already see Xuantu City clearly.
Gaozong couldn't help but frown, but found that the gate of Xuantu City was actually closed. Gaozong immediately snorted: "Huh! These Chinese pigs are so stupid, are they?
Do you think that just such a shabby city wall can stop our Goguryeo warriors?"
Although he said that, Gaozong looked at the city wall in front of him, but he didn't know why. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it. Xuantu City was still the original Xuantu City, and there was still a figure on the top of the city.
I can't see the empty city head, but the city wall is still the same...
Gaozong suddenly opened his eyes, reined in the reins hard, stopped the horse from sitting down, and stared at the city wall in front of him with wide eyes. Yes! It was the city wall! Gaozong had also been to Xuantu City before and had seen that time.
The walls of Xuantu City are in tatters, and there are even a few huge cracks on them. But now, although the walls are still in tatters, there are obviously many signs of repairs on them! Apparently, someone had repaired the walls before this.
Repair!
"Not good!" Although Gaozong was not considered a general, he had led the army in Goguryeo for so many years. He immediately thought that if there were no defenders in Xuantu City, how would anyone come to repair the city wall? He only relied on the troops of Xuantu City.
Those Han people? Without an army to take the lead, how could those Han people have the courage to go against the Goguryeo army! Thinking about it on the other hand, it proves that there is definitely an army in Xuantu City! It is not what it seems on the surface now.
An empty space!
Emperor Gaozong immediately turned his horse around and shouted to the Goguryeo soldiers behind him who were attacking the city wall: "Stop everyone! Stop! We have fallen into a trap! We..."
"Kill!" Before Gaozong could finish shouting, a shout of kill came from behind Gaozong. Behind the Goguryeo army, a cavalry suddenly appeared out of thin air, heading towards them crazily.
