Wang Junlin rode a blood-maned horse on the street. There were almost no brick houses on both sides of the street. They were all simple houses built with thatched grass. There were no decent shops in the city. It was a simple defensive fortress and a small amount of smuggling trade.
Being controlled by the generals, the residents are all fishermen at the lowest level in Goguryeo. They have been exploited and oppressed by the Goguryeo nobles for a long time, and they do not have much favorable impressions of the Goguryeo court. Fishing only allows them to maintain the lowest living standards. Every winter, some people
Unable to survive the severe cold.
A group of people came to the general's mansion. The building was quite grand, with a screen wall and a gatehouse. After entering, they found that the interior was very spacious. Wang Junlin looked around and said to Liu Yidong who was following him: "Next step, this will be your headquarters.
, you are responsible for all military and political affairs here, this is a military town."
This was originally planned. Liu Yidong immediately replied: "The general is already prepared and will straighten out the situation here as soon as possible."
Wang Junlin asked curiously: "You have never been to Nanyang Village, how do you plan to start?"
"First of all, we must first stabilize the city defense and occupy all key points in the city. Then we will find all the officials in the government, find out the money and food documents in Nanyang Village, and hand them to the important officials to check the numbers. Then select some people from the low-level officers of Goguryeo in custody. Secondly,
According to the personnel book, the strong men were cleared one by one, and they were forcibly gathered together. According to the training methods of the Shedao training camp, certain training was carried out to serve as auxiliary troops. These old officials were used to lead the troops to calm people's hearts. Again, to
These officers carefully inspect the surrounding mountains and rivers, and will personally inspect critical situations when necessary..."
Wang Junlin waved his hand to interrupt him with satisfaction, and said: "Yes, you are very organized. It seems that you have made a lot of preparations in advance. I will give you this rear area, so I can safely lead the army to go deeper."
After a pause, Wang Junlin continued: "After you have finished screening the officers and servants, I will personally come out to appease those soldiers who have an old relationship with Jin Sanhu and Lee Hyori, calm their hearts and make them surrender completely; besides, this place has just survived the winter,
There must be a shortage of food and grass, and I will send someone to Yang Kongchan to be responsible for delivering the food and grass in time, otherwise it will not be possible to hold on for a long time."
Liu Yidong knelt down on one knee and said loudly: "Your Excellency has thought carefully, and the general's troops will make Nanyang Village as solid as a rock, and will never cause any problems in your retreat."
"Get up, don't kneel down often. I hand over Nanyang Village to you, naturally because I believe in you." After speaking, he helped Liu Yidong up. Wang Junlin turned around and shouted: "Zhang Tiangang!"
"I'm here!" Zhang Tiangang hurriedly ran out from the side.
"Have Yuchi Jingde's three thousand cavalry disembarked?"
"I just reported that the man has dismounted, but the horse has not yet dismounted."
"This speed is really slow." Wang Junlin cursed secretly. The efficiency of transporting cavalry was too low. Yuchi Jingde's three thousand cavalry alone occupied nearly a hundred large ships. The horses could only be tied to the deck and did not pass by.
Maritime training is extremely unaccustomed to being at sea. Twenty percent of them fell ill after just two days of sailing, and the rest were also in poor condition and needed time to adjust.
Fortunately, this time he captured Nanyang Village in advance and landed from the dock. Don't think about it if it was a landing operation. He estimated that it would be a disaster if he used a small boat to transfer it.
"Have the other troops disembarked?"
"Luo Chunlai's five thousand naval troops have all disembarked, and Lu Han's three thousand troops have also disembarked and are gathering outside the city gate. The dock is currently transporting grain and grass to disembark."
"Speed up, we have to set off after two days of rest. Let the horses disembark first, Zhang Tiangang, you will send the reconnaissance team of the special forces to the direction of Daluo City for reconnaissance as soon as possible."
…
…
In the early morning of April 25th, Wang Junlin commanded Yuchi Jingde's 3,000 cavalry and 1,000 infantry troops, Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong's 6,000 troops, and Luo Chunlai's 5,000 naval officers and soldiers, in addition to Only three months after its establishment, a special force of 500 people led by Zhang Tiangang set out from Nanyang Village and began to attack Daluo City.
"Today we will march eighty miles and set up camp forty miles away from Daluo City. Try to lure the Goguryeo people out of the city to attack. If there is an encounter on the way, we will form a formation and fight. If we attack the city, we will make arrangements under the city." This was Wang Junlin's order before departure. marching orders.
Wang Junlin rode a blood-maned horse without having to control the horse at all. He looked at the map in his hand while walking. Their marching route was roughly on the west coast of Daluo City. The terrain here was relatively flat. After passing the previous one, there were hills along the way. The terrain requires a total of four rivers to be passed along the way.
Wang Junlin raised his head and looked at the beam horses on the surrounding ridges. These were sent out as sentries, and further away were spies sent by Shen Guoer. There was no need to worry about being attacked by a large number of Goguryeo troops.
…
…
Behind the mountains to the west of Daluo City, more than a dozen people stopped on the south slope of a hill. The leader jumped off his horse, lowered his body to the top of the mountain, and lay down in the knee-high grass.
This is the fourth reconnaissance team of the first detachment of Zhang Tiangang's special team. The team leader is named Liu Zhisheng. He was originally an ordinary martial arts warrior in the martial arts guild, but because he was good at jungle assassination, he was selected by Zhang Tiangang to join his special team. After three months of intensive training, he performed outstandingly and was appointed squad leader.
Liu Zhisheng twisted his neck and raised his binoculars to look north. The north was densely covered with hills, and some of the mountain tops looked desolate. Near the bottom of the mountains, there were lush grass and trees. In the plains, the former farmland was overgrown with weeds, and even the official roads were almost submerged.
Nie Xiaoyu easily tinkered with a batch of glass on Snake Island and produced a batch of telescopes. Every mid-level officer in Wang Junlin's army had one. The special forces reconnaissance team was special, so Liu Zhisheng, the squad leader, also had a telescope.
A small military fort is in a valley a few miles away. A small river runs through the valley, and there are some figures on horseback on several hills.
"It's a small military fortress of the Goguryeo people." Liu Zhisheng said to himself nonchalantly.
Liu Zhisheng saw that the Goguryeo people were very careless, because Shen Guoer sent a group of people to intercept them at several major passes in the direction of Nanyang Village towards Daluo City. It is estimated that Daluo City still does not know that Nanyang Village has been occupied by the Sui people.
Liu Zhisheng quietly retreated from the top of the mountain and rode his horse to the bottom of the slope. There were ten of his subordinates there. Some of them were selected from the most powerful warrior kings in the army, and some were selected from the martial arts guilds like him. Warriors, but they all have one thing in common, they have all gone through three months of intensive training as special operations soldiers. People with strong martial arts may not necessarily be powerful on the battlefield, and people with weak martial arts may not necessarily be really weak on the battlefield. .
In fact, Zhang Tiangang selected more than 2,000 people, but only 500 people were left in the end. Moreover, a small number of these 500 people failed the final exam, and among them, the most failed ones were the foundation-building masters of the martial arts guild.
