Chapter 2 The Sui army in front of Tiger Young (Sixth Middle School) has reached its end. The Goguryeo general Eulji Wenxing who was guarding the west end of Wugu Valley knew this clearly. In fact, in addition to what the heroes showed in the morning
The combat power surprised him slightly. He knew everything about the arrival of the Xiongwu Xiaoguo Camp and the approximate number of people in the entire Xiaoguo Camp.
He knew that the opponent's general was named Li Xu, a brave and foolhardy young man who had just been promoted to the position of general. He also knew that the reason why Yuwen Shu withdrew his troops was because there was a rebellion within the Sui Kingdom, which cut off the food supply for a million-strong army.
He even knew that the reason why the Sui Kingdom sent such an unknown boy to rescue the Eastern Expedition Army was because some people did not want to see Yu Wenshu return alive. The reason why he could obtain this information was also very simple, because the Sui Dynasty was
Some people want to join forces with Goguryeo to divide the picturesque country
The country is not something that ordinary people have the opportunity to sell. The person who sent the message was Hu Sizheng, the Minister of War of the Sui Dynasty. In order to repay the kindness of the late Chu Duke Yang Su, he even drew the entire military deployment of the Sui Dynasty in Liaodong.
, sent his cronies across the mountains and sent them to Wugu City. "If the king sends out the righteous troops in front, the Duke of Chu will attack behind..." Husizheng wrote passionately in the letter asking Eulji Wenxing to forward it to the King of Goguryeo.
In order to get the support of the Goguryeo people, he replaced today's Chu Gong Yang Xuangan and promised the Goguryeo people that after the event was completed, the other party could take the entire Liao territory. The Central Plains soldiers and horses would not appear outside the Great Wall again. As for what to do with the Goguryeo people living in the three areas in western Liaoning
Hu Sizheng did not mention the Sui people in the county.
How could the land of Liao, the land of Liao, satisfy the dreams of generations of Goguryeo people? After receiving the secret letter from Husizheng, Ulji Wenxing sent people to swim across the Mazhai River overnight to spread the news of the civil strife in the Sui Dynasty.
It was sent to the hands of King Gowon and Prime Minister Eulji Mundeok. In order not to waste this golden opportunity, Eulji Munheung mobilized all the manpower that could be mobilized in Wugu City and blocked the Wugu Valley.
As long as we stay here for three or five days, the king's army will cross the Mazhai River and chase after him at night. A hundred thousand troops will definitely bite Yu Wenshu's tail. Although the Sui expeditionary army is large in number, it has no food and grass.
, and there is no way back. What awaits them is the same as last year, the fate of total annihilation.
For the sake of his country, Eulji Munheung was willing to do whatever it took. The long and narrow Wugu Valley was forcibly divided into several sections. Each section was built with huge rocks and trees as forts. Each of his generals was responsible for defending a fort, no matter who's fort was blocked.
When the enemy breaks through, the generals guarding the fort will raise their heads to see him.
The effect of this kind of strict defense is very good. Although the soldiers have not seen the embarrassed figure of the 300,000 Eastern Expeditionary Army of the Sui Dynasty that retreated so far, the reinforcements on the west side of the valley were hit by them and their heads were badly bruised.
Those hasty reinforcements were neither adapted to the narrow terrain of the valley nor had much combat experience. Although they captured a camp with the bravery of the general, the price paid was at least a thousand dollars.
"If you are wise, go away!" Eulji Wenxing thought with a smile. Throughout the afternoon, he kept sending elites to the west side of the valley. He wanted to make his opponents realize their true strength and no longer dare to attack easily. Of course, he can
It would be best if the young boy on the opposite side is frightened and retreats obediently. Even if he cannot be frightened away, Eulji Munheung is absolutely sure to take back the lost camp at night.
His show-off method seemed to work. Around late afternoon, the Sui army on the west side of the valley took the initiative to abandon the fortress they had captured with blood. All the soldiers and horses slowly retreated to the open space outside the valley before they resumed felling trees and building structures.
Through the lookouts arranged in advance in the military camp, Eulji Wenxing learned that the opponent had brought many war horses. The unknown boy named Li Xu seemed to be very interested in the cavalry attack. Since withdrawing from the valley, his general's flag has been
among the horses
Cavalry? Eulji Wenheung didn't believe that the opponent's war horse could pick up speed on the narrow river beach. Moreover, with so many temporary fences blocking it, even if the war horse rushed up, it would only end up being killed alive.
The leader of the Sui army on the opposite side was indeed a novice with no experience in leading troops. Just after Shenshi, smoke was already rising from his troops. When the smoke just started to rise, Eulji Wenxing was afraid that the opponent would jump over the wall and risk a fire attack.
Seeing the surging river at his feet, his heart dropped back into his stomach.
To be able to set a fire next to such a large flow of water, unless the boy named Li is the reincarnation of the God of Fire!
The boy named Li is not the reincarnation of the God of Fire. He just wants to eat early. The smoke in the distance is getting thicker and thicker, with a faint smell of mugwort. This kind of grass is used by ordinary people to smoke mosquitoes in summer. In the woods of Liaodong
Eulji Wenxing sniffed proudly. He liked the fragrance of burning mugwort. It is said to refresh the mind, ward off filth and exorcise evil spirits. No, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked into the distance with all his strength.
He saw countless puffs of light smoke getting thicker and thicker, and finally gathered into puffs of black mist, rushing towards his head from the sky like an oolong.
"The Sui people set fire!" the lookout standing on the branch reported loudly, "It's not fire, it's not fire, they, cough, cough, cough, they set, smoke!" The shout of another lookout was interrupted by a violent cough.
covered up
"Get, cough, get water, cough, block, block your mouth and nose!" Eulji Munheung coughed loudly and ordered his soldiers to repeat the general's instructions desperately, but the shout was interrupted by a burst of shouts.
After a while, he was drowned by the sound of coughing
The Sui army did not set fire. They were setting fire to such a large river. Even if they set a fire, the fire would not spread to the entire valley. But setting smoke is different from setting fire. The smoke can drift along the wind and the strong westerly wind just blows the outside of the valley.
All the smoke pours in continuously from the trumpet-shaped mouth of the valley, pours in
The aromatic smell of mugwort disappeared, replaced by a strong stench. Every time he took a breath, Eulji Wenxing felt dizzy. He saw a long stream of saliva flowing from the corner of the mouth of one of his soldiers, and another soldier
He put his hands on his throat and gasped desperately, his whole body arched into a shrimp shape.
He had to retreat with the help of his own soldiers. The smoke was too thick and seemed to be poisonous. Eulji Wenxing didn't know what kind of poison it was, but the poisonous smoke had caused many of his soldiers to lose their combat effectiveness. Countless people's
The body was arched into a shrimp shape, coughing loudly, and drooling continuously.
"It's horse manure smoke. Get a wet cloth and block your mouth and nose. Block your mouth and nose!" A soldier with the army stumbled towards the river beach and plunged into the black bone water. The cold river water alleviated his poisoning symptoms, but the blood streaks had already flowed down the river.
"It's not just because of horse manure, the smoke from wet horse manure is not as toxic as the smoke from wet horse manure, gallbladder, snakehead, five-step down, big-leaf mugwort..." With many years of medical experience, the doctor argued
There were at least a dozen common poisonous weed smells. He looked desperately at the hundreds of feet high cliffs on both sides of the river, and his body fell softly.
The Goguryeo soldiers in the first camp jumped over the wooden fence like frightened birds and ran towards the depths of the valley. Then came the second camp, the third camp, and the fourth camp. Regardless of whether the general was scolding or scolding, they killed people to establish their authority.
No matter, whoever refuses to stay where he is and be smoked may not be afraid of death, but if the smoke is thick, the iron-clad people will not be able to bear it.
Eulji Wenheung retreated to the depths of the valley with the support of his guards. He did not blame his soldiers for retreating before fighting. He could only blame the enemy general for being too despicable and shameless for coming up with such a smoky plan.
The reason why he chose Wugu Valley to intercept the enemy was that he took a fancy to the valley's terrain, which is wide at the front and back, narrow in the middle, and with towering stone walls on the left and right sides. He never expected that this terrain would also create a perfect environment for the opponent's smoke offensive.
sufficient conditions
"Withdraw, withdraw, cough, withdraw to the center, cough, cough, there, cough, form the team, form the team!" Eulji Moon-hung gave the order in a daze, telling his trusted generals to gather the broken troops to the center of the valley. This valley is enough
It is long and narrow. The thick smoke created by the Sui army can spread to the northwest half of the valley, but it is impossible to fill the entire valley. Moreover, the smoke harms both sides equally. The Sui army also cannot gain access to the fortresses abandoned by the Goguryeo people.
As soon as he finished speaking, Eulji Wenxing saw a few red lights rushing out of the thick smoke. "Fire, fire!" the panicked soldiers shouted, pushing each other away from the river beach.
Eulji Wenxing's face turned pale green instantly. It was impossible. It was impossible for the Sui people to rush through such thick smoke to set fire. But in fact, there were several fireballs rushing down the river, sending the thick smoke to him.
Under the eyes, "Bang! Bang!" With the dull "Bang Bang" sound, the fireball at the front broke two nets that the Goguryeo people had pulled in the river one after another, and plunged into the beach. Red stars and black smoke immediately flew out.
It rose up, mixed with white water vapor, and was as strange as the poisonous mist spewed by a ghost.
It was indeed a real poisonous mist. There was no one on the raft, only burning firewood and large bags of horse dung. The moist horse dung was mixed with various poisonous weeds, and was roasted by the fire into a deadly thick smoke. "This river
It flows eastward." Eulji Wenxing's eyes showed despair. In order to prevent the Sui army from forcibly breaking through the river, or someone sneaking downstream at night to contact the other 300,000 Sui armies, he ordered people to set up traps in the river.
Hundreds of hidden piles pulled down hundreds of fishing nets. Now, these hidden piles and fishing nets have become good helpers for the enemy. The poisonous fire rafts washed down from the upper reaches were blocked by wooden piles and fishing nets. They were blocked in different rivers.
Sections, different locations, creating countless murderous intentions
"Stay away, ahem, rivers, stay away, stay away from smoke, stay away, ahem!" Eulji Moon-Heung covered his throat and issued the order intermittently.
"This valley is long enough!" he thought dazedly, "There is no way the smoke can fill the entire valley!" He felt that his legs and feet were weak, and he relied entirely on the guards' support to avoid falling. "Even if we give up the first half of the valley,
, and the second half can be used!" He threw away the guard, struggled to bend down, picked up a handful of wet sand from the river beach, put his mouth on it and breathed heavily.
The wind in the valley became stronger and the smoke began to fade. Countless soldiers ran past him dragging their weapons. Flags, shields, bows and arrows were thrown all over the ground.
"Stand still, they can't take the valley with the thick smoke alone! Stop, everyone." Eulji Wenheung played his trombone. He straightened up and saw the sky in the west, as gorgeous as fire.
