When Cao Minxiu's three troops arrived to the north of Liaoyang City, the artillery fire of the Tongshun Army was still roaring indiscriminately...
On average, every ten seconds or so, a shell will fly over and over again, then smash into the city with extreme accuracy, and blow up flowers of death.
Wu Qidao didn't know whether there were still living people in Liaoyang City at this time, and he didn't bother to know, because his strategic purpose this time was to attract all the attention of the main force of Goryeo. Therefore, among the thousands of cannons, there were only a dozen, and they were still firing continuously. Hundreds of cannons were loaded with shells and waiting for the arrival of the Goryeo army...
But even under such a slackened attack, what appeared before Cao Minxiu was already a city full of devastated and burning with raging fire.
Apart from the roar of artillery and the explosion of shells, there was almost no movement in the city, and even on the walls, there was no figure of a Goryeo soldier...
Cao Minxiu raised his horse whip, pointed at a young general beside him, and said coldly: "You, go to the city to explore, find the guard Cui Zhengyong, and let him go out of the city to see me!"
"Ah~??I?" The young general pointed to his nose with fear, turned his head to look at Liaoyang City, which was a sea of fire, then swallowed and bit his back teeth and ran towards the city...
At the same time, Cao Minxiu also jumped off the saddle, expanded the map, and began to make his own strategic deployment. In his vision, he first asked the commander of the left army to lead 20,000 musket soldiers to ambush the ravine of Longding Mountain ten miles east of Liaoyang City, and then set up all the artillery of his central army near the top of the mountain and the banks of the Taizi River, using the terrain advantages to increase the range of the self-armed artillery, and when the enemy infantry charges the artillery position, he uses the ambush in the ravine to launch a surprise attack! Abuse the opponent!
When his right-hand army was attracted by artillery fire and rushed to Longding Mountain, he joined forces with the remaining troops in Liaoyang City to capture the central camp of the Tongshun Army located in the south of the city in one fell swoop! In order to achieve the strategic goal of capturing the thief first!
I have to say that although Cao Minxiu was very fond of merit and was a perverse person, he was indeed a good player in placing troops and marching and fighting. If he really continued according to his plan, Wu Qidao Army would definitely face a hard battle.
But no matter how much Cao Minxiu calculates, he can't figure it out. At this moment, there was another rumbling sound of cannons behind him!!
Yan Bing's troops... have begun to attack Shenyang City...
Moreover, it is completely different from the shelling in Liaoyang City. It is a continuous burst of bombardment and explosions, one after another...
The two commanders of the Goryeo Army's border line army were shocked...
"Sir, the Inquirer!! This voice is clearly coming from the direction of Shenyang City!! We have fallen into the trap!!"
"Sir, let's quickly lead the army back to Shenyang City! Maybe it's still time!"
"Hahaha... back to defend...?" Cao Minxiu sneered, slowly retracted the map into his arms, and said to the two of them in a deep voice: "Are you two... idiots?? Go back to Shenyang, and then take the initiative to put your army in a situation where they are attacked by the enemy from the front and back!?? How did you two pig brains reach their current status!??"
The two generals were immediately stunned...
I thought to myself, do you still not know? Like you, you are all promoted by Lord Shangshu Ling...
"Forget it...!!!" Cao Minxiu saw that both of them were not speaking, so he sighed and continued, "It was the general who underestimated this witch of Liang State... But fortunately, the army did not hurt the foundation and was lost. If you fight back in the future, you will notify the battalions and return to the Jiehe River..."
Cao Minxiu packed the map and walked towards his war horse with his hands on his back. At this moment, his face was full of reluctance, and he silently vowed in his heart that he must lead the army to Liaodong again and defeat Liang State! He will avenge his previous shame!
He is worthy of being one of the few good generals in Goryeo...
He is clear-headed and knows how to advance and retreat. Unfortunately, his opponent is Yan Bing, and Yan Bing, who has reached the extreme after several war baptisms...
When Cao Minxiu's 50,000 troops began to withdraw in the direction of Goryeo, Xingtian Camp in the sky, cooperated with flags and telescopes, immediately passed the battle report back to Yan Bing's commander's tent.
When Yan Bing heard the news, he just smiled slightly, praised the commander of the Goryeo Army for a few words, and issued an edict, leaving two thousand people to continue to attack the city, and the remaining large troops bypassed the city and pursued the Goryeo main force.
At the same time, he took advantage of the communication of Xingtian Camp to issue a pursuit order to the Wu Qidao Department who was less than a hundred miles away from him!
But as this pursuit order was issued, a group of flag words were also attached, that is...
Slowly marching...
At first, when the commander passed this order to Wu Qidao, he was covered in a slight manner and repeatedly confirmed that there was no problem with the interpretation of the flag-speaking soldiers, he followed the order.
After all, this is an order to pursue the enemy! But the troops are required to walk slowly! The two orders are completely different???
Wu Qidao, with a full head of doubt, rode on a war horse and led his troops to slowly move towards the direction of the enemy's withdrawal.
Because the only thing he is sure of is that every order given by his coach must have its profound meaning hidden in it! No need to ask more questions, just follow the orders!
In this way, after three days of "slow" pursuit, Wu Qidao watched the opponent's 50,000 main force walk into the dense forest of Changbai Mountain, and soon received an order from the head coach to stop the pursuit.www.Bayizw.????m
At this time, Wu Qidao's troops were only less than twenty miles away from the commander's troops. Wu Qidao could no longer suppress his doubts, so he asked Zhao Kaixuan to take over his command, riding a fast horse alone, and running towards the commander's troops...
He wanted to know what the coach's arrangement had in mind!
It would be fine if you march slowly, but you still stopped marching? Isn’t this just keeping the fat meat in front of you and not eating it, just watching it?
With this doubt, Wu Qidao opened the coach's curtain in a hurry and stepped forward and bowed!
"Oh? It's coming quickly enough? Come on, sit and have a drink of tea?" Yan Bing greeted him with a warm smile, and held a tea bowl and handed it to Wu Qi.
But Wu Qidao glanced at another cup of hot tea on the Shuai Case, frowned and asked softly, "Master, do you know that the Mo will come?"
"Well! I know you will come, and I know what you want to ask," Yan Bing took a sip of the hot tea in the cup, then looked up at Wu Qi and said with a smile: "Do you drink it? If you are not thirsty, just put it on the table and don't hold it all the time. I will solve your doubts one by one."
Upon hearing this, Wu Qidao immediately raised the tea bowl and took a big sip, then wiped the corner of his mouth, and put the tea bowl back on the table.
