Chapter 1139: The Mission of Luo Shixin and Li Xuanba

This prisoner was none other than Li Guangsheng, the commander-in-chief of the Goguryeo army. Today, the special force was ordered to use gunpowder to blow up the retreat of the Goguryeo reinforcements, and then laid some mines in the mountain roads on both sides. Wang Junlin considered that the soldiers of the special force were in the battle of the regiment.

Compared with ordinary infantry, they have no advantage, so they are not allowed to participate in frontal battles.

After the Goguryeo army collapsed, Zhang Tiangang followed Li Guangsheng with more than 30 masters, using bloodletting tactics to chase him all the way. After he escaped into the mountains, the special forces used their advantages in mountain warfare to chase and kill him all the way.

In half a day, more than 30 people killed all the more than 400 people around Li Guangsheng and captured Li Guangsheng alive.

The captives of Goguryeo turned pale when they saw this. They were completely defeated, and even the general was captured.

Wang Junlin called Zhang Tiangang. After encouraging and praising him, he gave serious instructions. Zhang Tiangang selected 300 soldiers from the special forces and put them into Goguryeo reinforcements uniforms and armor, one person and three horses. He also prepared as much water and water as possible.

grain and grass, and then headed towards Pyongyang City, Goguryeo. On the other side of the bombed-out road, Wang Junlin had ordered people to fill in half of it.

After Zhang Tiangang left with his men, Wang Junlin called Luo Chunlai. Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong gave detailed instructions. Then they and Yuchi Jingde led more than 2,000 cavalry, each equipped with three horses, to chase Zhang Tiangang.

Then we headed towards Pyongyang.





Compared with the Sui Dynasty, Goguryeo was much smaller, almost the same as a larger county. The cavalry could run at full strength for a day or two and could even penetrate from north to south.

Wang Junlin and Yuchi Jingde led more than two thousand cavalry, one person and three horses, galloping towards Pyongyang. Along the way, they marched, ate, marched again, and camped at night. The entire army remained silent.

Most of a day later, the army arrived at the Sashui River, not far from Pyongyang City.

Facts have proved that the information Shen Guoer had found out before was correct. The main army led by Yuan Taizuo was still attacking Liaodong City in the west, and wiped out hundreds of thousands of soldiers who fled in all directions. However, Li Guangsheng, the Sui army general who had not escaped from Goguryeo,

The 20,000-strong army he led was already the last and largest army in Goguryeo. It could be said to be the most powerful army in the country.

Therefore, Wang Junlin and Yuchi Jingde led the army all the way north, and did not encounter any resistance on the way. The cities they passed were all garrisoned by less than a thousand people, and the villages they passed were filled with old, weak, women and children staggering away.

Wang Junlin became more and more confident in his plan to raid Pyongyang, not to mention that he had sent out the two little guys Luo Shixin and Li Xuanba a few months ago at the beginning of the war.

Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong in the salt field originally had 8,000 troops under their command, including 6,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry. From the beginning, Luo Shixin and Li Xuanba each took a thousand cavalry and broke them into pieces to sneak into the hinterland of Goguryeo.

It is still close to the main battlefield of Yang Guang and Yuan Taizuo in the west.

Their tasks are mainly divided into three stages. In the early stage, they are to lurk and protect themselves. In the middle stage, they are responsible for gathering a large number of Sui army stragglers who will inevitably appear. Finally, according to Wang Junlin's order, they lead the troops to the Sashui River south of Pyongyang City.

Join forces and then launch a surprise attack on Pyongyang City.

After Wang Junlin and Yuchi Jingde waited by the Sashui River for more than an hour, Luo Shixin and Li Xuanba appeared one after another with their troops.

The two of them each brought more than 4,000 cavalry, which was more than four times the number of cavalry under their previous command. The others were naturally the Sui army cavalry gathered these days. These people had lost military morale in the west, and some of the generals saw Luo Shi. Xin and Li Xuanba were young and dissatisfied, so these two young men killed one or two hundred generals and soldiers of the Sui Army these days to control these troops. In fact, they had more than 4,000 people each. the limits of what can be controlled.

When the more than 6,000 newly recruited Sui army cavalry saw the legendary invincible poisonous general Duke Qin An come to the throne, things would be even more different. The so-called shadow of a famous tree, the reputation of the invincible general is not for nothing. In addition, after hearing that they were planning to attack Pyongyang City by surprise, these 6,000 people were shocked and extremely excited. They fought so hard in the west and it was so tragic. Countless brothers and comrades were killed by the Goguryeo people, and they died in a confused manner.

According to Shen Guoer's intelligence and the results of observations on the road, the defenders in Pyongyang City are not estimated to be too many, at most five thousand. With Wang Junlin and others, they already have more than 10,000 cavalry. , can be crushed easily, and Wang Junlin has a careful plan, so he is full of confidence in entering the capital of Goguryeo.

Thinking of this, even Wang Junlin's heartbeat could not help but speed up a lot, let alone Yuchi Jingde, Luo Shixin, and Li Xuanba.

The surprise attack on Pyongyang was not only a tactical success, it played a role in encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao in Liaodong City, but also severely damaged Goguryeo, allowing Wang Junlin to further establish the country in Annan County, support the Jin family as a puppet, and forcibly divide Goguryeo into two.

In addition, it may be able to dissuade Yang Guang's second conquest of Goguryeo with all his national strength.

The Great Sui expedition had failed miserably. Yang Guang came with one million troops and three to four million civilians. In the end, less than half of the army returned to the country, and only one out of ten of the three to four million civilians returned to their hometowns. Wang Junlin It is clear that with Yang Guang's character, he has already begun desperately planning the second expedition to Goguryeo. According to the original historical development, millions more people will die, and the real disintegration of the Sui Dynasty will not be far away.

Wang Junlin's purpose was very simple, just to prevent the death of some people in the Sui Dynasty.

If Wang Junlin surprises Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, and the news of the founding of Goguryeo reaches Luoyang, you can imagine how wonderful the expressions of Yang Guang, all the officials in the court, and the noble families will be. The people and the army will naturally be extremely grateful to Wang Junlin. , the nobles who had enmity with Goguryeo in this battle would also be grateful to Wang Junlin, but some people had complicated feelings.

For example, Yang Guang led one million people and was defeated miserably at the hands of Goguryeo. However, Wang Junlin only led 20,000 people and defeated one county. He also forcibly established a country and even raided Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo.

This makes people all over the world think of Yang Guang. With Yang Guang's weird character, not only will they not be grateful at all, they will only be mad and have inexplicable murderous intentions towards Wang Junlin.

The Sasu River is one of the few large rivers in Goguryeo. The water flows from north to south, and finally enters the Bohai Sea.

Wang Junlin led more than 10,000 cavalrymen. Fortunately, when they arrived at the Sashui River, there was a pontoon bridge made of wooden boats on the river. This pontoon bridge was left by Li Guangshun, who had just passed here with 20,000 reinforcements a few days ago. , went to Annan County, because he was considering coming back, so after the pontoon bridge was built, Li Guangshun did not order its demolition.
