Turbulent Times Chapter 1148: Take the bait


Yuan Tae-joo will naturally not sit still and let others harass and sneak attack. The two Goguryeo armies sent a large number of spies to search the surrounding area for 30 miles, but these spies faced the spies and special forces sent by Shen Guoer with fewer victories and more defeats, with heavy casualties.

In this way, there are delays and harassment from landmines during the day. At night, no matter how tight the Goguryeo army’s defense is and no matter how many sentinels are dispatched, someone in the special forces will always sneak into the Goguryeo camp and set fire to it and blow up the camp with gunpowder. This result is already very serious.

After a few days, the two armies of Goguryeo, from Yuan Taezuo to every soldier below, were already frightened and exhausted. Let alone how fast they walked the next day, the morale of the army was shaken so badly that they swelled up because of fleeing for their lives. Morale is also dropping rapidly.

Yuan Taizuo naturally knew the seriousness of the problem, but he couldn't find a solution to the problem for a while.

In Yuan Taejo's camp, discussions are under way for the next move.

"Wang Junlin is extremely treacherous, and even sent a few elite masters to attack us continuously, and he has gunpowder as a terrifying weapon in his hands. There is no way to solve this."

"But what should we do if we don't solve it? Are we going to let the Sui people rob all the wealth of our capital, kill our clansmen, and then escape calmly?"

"Our troops are much stronger than Wang Junlin's army that attacked Pyongyang, so they are very afraid of being caught up by us. And it is precisely because of this that we have to catch up with them. As long as we catch up with them, we will be able to kill them all Kill them all."

"I'm afraid that when we are the most exhausted and chasing the enemy, Wang Junlin's army will suddenly turn around and attack us. At that time, how much strength we still have to fight, even if we have four or five times their numbers, we can really defeat them .”

All the generals were arguing, when a messenger came in, came to Yuan Taizuo, who had been sullen and silent, and said something in a low voice. Yuan Taizuo cheered up and shouted: "Okay, don't quarrel."

All the generals stopped immediately and looked at Yuan Taizuo. The latter took a deep breath and said, "I just received a very important piece of news. The main force of Wang Junlin has more than 1,000 chariots of wealth. Don't worry, there is Sanyang Valley hidden now, and it is only more than a hundred miles away from us."

When the generals heard the words, they paused

His eyes lit up, and everyone was overjoyed.

………

………

Wang Junlin and his party camp.

After reading the information sent by Feiying, Shen Guoer smiled and came to see Wang Junlin with a happy face.

"My lord, I just got the news that Yuan Taizuo has already taken the bait."

"Very good, send a letter to the armies of Silla and Baekje, asking them to go to Sanyang Valley to join forces as planned and kill Yuan Taejo."

………

………

When Yuan Tae-joo led an army to attack King Junlin of Sanyang Valley and his party, the 30,000 cavalrymen of Silla and Baekje each received the eagle letter arranged by Shen Guoer almost at the same time. Then they led their 30,000 men to Sanyang Valley.

As soon as they entered the Sanyang Valley, scouts came from behind to report that behind them they found the army of the Sui Kingdom appearing at the entrance of the valley, blocking their retreat. Words, the number of people is about 10,000 or so.

This is naturally the 10,000 cavalry led by Wang Junlin they want to hunt down.

Yuan Taizuo suddenly became suspicious. They had already entered the valley. With Wang Junlin's shrewdness, he knew in advance that this was nothing, but the other party did not escape, and appeared behind them strangely, blocking their retreat .

What's the situation, Yuan Taizuo faintly felt a little bad, and when he looked at the terrain in the valley, his expression changed suddenly.

There are mountains on both sides of this valley. Although it is not high, the **** can still be crawled by infantry, but it is enough for cavalry to pass through. And deep in the valley is also backed by mountains. The only exit was the Taniguchi they had just entered.

A general took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Wang Junlin has a big appetite. Although we are exhausted, we are still superior in numbers. The mouth of the valley is hundreds of feet long, which is enough to show our superiority in numbers."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Yuan Taizuo shook his head, his expression was still full of worry. He suffered a big loss at the hands of Wang Junlin once.

As soon as Yuan Taizuo finished speaking, a series of thunderous explosions suddenly sounded from the left half of Taniguchi. I don't know how many explosives were buried in the ground, and it resounded for more than ten breaths.

It actually gives people a faint feeling that the world has changed. Even though the horses on both sides were separated by hundreds of feet and their ears were plugged with something, it still caused a lot of commotion, but they were quickly calmed down by the cavalry.

After the explosion, half of the one-hundred-foot valley mouth turned into a gully one foot deep and two to three feet wide, leaving only the other half about fifty feet wide for the cavalry to pass through.

Yuan Taizuo and the generals suddenly changed their expressions.

"Hmph, so what if the mouth of the valley becomes narrower, I don't believe that more than 40,000 of us can't defeat 10,000 of them." A general gritted his teeth and said,

But at this moment, another spies came to report, and two cavalrymen were found in the distance, each numbering 30,000.

Yuan Taizuo and a group of generals suddenly changed their faces very clearly.

"Damn it, it's people from Silla and Baekje." Yuan Taizuo understood everything in an instant, and they fell into Wang Junlin's trick again.

Taking a deep breath, Yuan Taizuo turned his head and ordered loudly: "Notice the whole army, the Sui army who attacked our capital was caught up by us, for the sake of honor, for military merit, kill all the enemies, they robbed the city of Pyongyang For the one thousand carts of wealth that have been taken away, half of the truth is decided and distributed to the whole army, and we will never break our promise."

………

………

The Goguryeo army covered the mountains and fields in the valley.

The allied armies of Sui, Silla, and Baekje lined up with a total of about 70,000 soldiers, with 10,000 cavalry from the Sui Dynasty in the middle, and 30,000 cavalry from each of Silla and Baekje on both sides.

The 70,000-strong army quietly looked at the dark cloud-like cavalry of Goguryeo two or three miles away. Everyone stood at their posts full of energy, and their morale was like a rainbow.

On the hillsides on both sides of the valley mouth, two trebuchet positions have been built at some point, and behind each position there is a tunnel fortification, which contains 300 gunpowder packs of various types.

Wang Junlin stood in front of the ten thousand troops on horseback, and quietly looked at the dark Goguryeo cavalry on the opposite side. Although they had 20,000 more people on their side than the other side, the cavalry strength of Silla and Baekje might be strong. It is worse than the Goguryeo cavalry.

However, Wang Junlin is still full of confidence in this battle, because he knows that the physical strength and spirit of the Goguryeo army at this time are too far behind those in their heyday, and the corresponding combat power will definitely be weakened.
