Chapter 510 The peninsula lost the turtle in the urn
The lieutenant left behind in Liaodong City was named Dong Kuan, about 40 years old, from Youwuwei, and had followed Cheng Yaojin for many years.

Three days after Cheng Yaojin left with his team, Dong Kuan went to the top of the city to inspect the city defense as usual. Recently, there was a war in the Liaodong Peninsula. At this time, there were only [-] troops stationed in the city, so he had to be cautious.

The situation is tense now, so Liaodong City is very careful to control the entry and exit of people and horses. At this time, there was a commotion at the north gate of the city, which attracted Dong Kuan's attention. He quickly went down to the city gate to check the situation.

It turned out that a group of Khitan merchants had clashed with the interrogating soldiers. Dong Kuan had a bad face and went up to scold him, "What happened? Is the city gate such a noisy place?"

The Khitan caravan steward retorted loudly: "We are the Khitan caravan, who came to deliver ingredients to the Wangjinglou in the city. They questioned and inspected us, but they charged us double the entrance fee because we were foreigners. "

When Dong Kuan heard this, his expression immediately turned cold. Looking back, all the soldiers on patrol at the gate of the city lowered their heads. The leader seemed intent on refuting a few words, but he didn't say anything.

"Bastard, what time is it now? Is it the time for you to exploit and entrap business travelers? You Wuwei has lost all face. They are delivering ingredients to Wangjinglou, and they have exposed it in Lantianhou's face.

Well, you go in! "

After scolding his soldiers, Dong Kuan let the Khitan caravan enter the city.

Regarding the exploiting of caravans by soldiers at the gate, there has always been a history. All the generals turned a blind eye and closed their eyes. Everyone knows what kind of soldiers are under his command. It is a fat job to be a city gate guard. By default, he can deal with large caravans. Get some oil and water, but this group of people shouldn't be indiscriminate. If they don't do security checks properly at this time, they should be punished.

The captain of the city gate knew it was wrong, and complained in his heart. In the past, these Khitan barbarians were scrambling to pay double. He was punished, so the captain of the goalkeeper also felt aggrieved, and he could only blame himself for his bad luck.

But before Dong Kuan could open his mouth to punish his subordinates, the sound of a large group of troops came from the north. Years of military experience told Dong Kuan that the sound of horseshoes at such a speed is obviously murderous, and I am afraid it is not good.

"Enemy attack, the whole army is on alert, pull up the drawbridge, and close the city gate."

At this moment, the Khitan caravan that hadn't fully entered the city took out a batch of weapons from nowhere, and rushed out suddenly, killing the soldiers who were closing the gate to close the drawbridge by surprise.

Dong Kuan took a look, well, it turned out to be an undercover agent, a damned Khitan man, shouted, and took his bodyguards to attack the Khitan merchant team and began to slash wildly. Go into town, and that's it.

But the reality is like this, everything is planned by others, the garrison of the Tang Dynasty has always used Khitan as an ally, who would have thought that these barbarians would turn against each other and stab themselves?

"General, hurry into the city, the enemy is coming!" shouted a guard.

Dong Kuan saw that it was over, a black torrent came up from the official road in the north, how conspicuous it was outside the snow-white city, and at this time more than half of the dead soldiers of the Khitan caravan had not been killed, it seemed that it could not stop it The enemy has entered the city.

"The city of Liaodong was lost to the enemy, a certain shameless goodbye to the general!
My sons and daughters, open the city gate, and the five thousand defenders will fight this team. "

After issuing the military order, Dong Kuan, as a seasoned general defending the city, ordered his confidantes to retreat quietly to save hope, and send a letter to Youzhou in the west, and General Cheng in the south at the same time, and lead the defenders to fight the enemy.

5000 people, due to the internal and external cooperation of the enemy, fought for less than an hour, and were all killed by the incoming enemy, and none of them left the battlefield alive. Killing butchers, even if there are people alive, those who surrender will be killed.

In the end, Liaodong City changed hands, and none of the defenders became prisoners. Fortunately, these Khitans did not massacre the city. After fighting with the Tang Dynasty for many years, they have developed a style of killing less people and looting more. They also know that all the trophies can be used. They came to exchange money, so the Khitan people had planned long ago. Liaodong City was captured, and the property was taken away by themselves.

As for Anshi City and Jian'an City to the south of Liaodong City, the same tactics, the same encounter, and at the same time, because 13 Khitan and Mohe troops came together, [-] people went to Liaodong City, Anshi City, Jian'an City They went to [-] each, and won these three cities without any effort. The difference is that Jian'an City belongs to Mohe's spoils of war.

Then it took another day to capture Jili City. At the same time, the messenger Dong Kuan sent to the south to deliver the message was not as lucky as Deputy General Hu, and was captured as soon as he reached Anshi City.

So when Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda were just besieged in Beisha City, in fact, only this city was left in the five cities of Tang and Liaodong, and the number of soldiers changed from [-] to [-].

"The city is Cheng Yaojin, the Great Tang Youwuwei General?"

Hearing someone from the city came out to talk to him, Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "Yes, it's your Grandpa Cheng. Which unknown person from Goguryeo is below? Dare to lead troops to besiege us?"

"Your grandpa Niu is here, you dog thief. You attacked me with 5 people and failed to take it in eight days. Can I change it to [-] now?" Niu Jinda also mocked.

Although Sa Yanshou was scolded by the two of them face to face, he was not angry. Instead, he smiled disdainfully and said, "You are still stubborn when you are about to die? I am not afraid to tell you Niu Jinda, I would have known that you participated in the three expeditions to our country back then, and you are not the same as us." Let's live together, the last time we captured the five cities of Liaodong, our Koguryo children died in your hands.

Do you think that this general will not be able to attack your mere city of Beisha?
To tell you the truth, Goguryeo dispatched 11 troops this time, just for you two. I have [-] troops to cut off your reinforcements, and I have [-] troops but only dispatched [-], just to use you to attract that surnamed Cheng. , and then catch the two of you together. "

Cheng Yaojin scolded: "Bah! You want to take our brothers with only 8 people? I know you want to exchange us for the Koguryo envoys detained by Chang'an, but the people of Tang Dynasty would rather bend than bend. Can't stop us.

Even if we don't want this Beisha city today, we can't be your captives.

Lao Niu, go down and reorganize the army. Later, we will lead our troops to rush out. The two leaders of Youwuwei have been kidnapped. We can't afford to lose this person. "

But before Niu Jinda could go out, the following Niu Sa Yanshou laughed and said, "I'm afraid you still haven't seen the situation clearly, you two, don't you know that Datang not only detained my envoys from Goguryeo, but also those from Khitan and Mohe?" The envoys were also detained, so our three countries joined forces.

As early as when you, General Cheng, led the troops out of Liaodong City, Khitan and Mohe moved. Presumably at this time, the five Liaodong cities, except Beisha City here, are all ours.

The Liaodong Peninsula was taken away by you for two years. It seems that the joy of victory has captivated your eyes. Do you really think that your Datang army can do whatever they want on the peninsula?Here, it is still my Goguryeo world. "

As if to verify what Nusa Yanshou said, sure enough, a black torrent came from a distance not long after. It looked like a team of 5 people.

This time Cheng Yaojin panicked, knowing it was not good, he stopped chatting with the people in the city, and immediately took Niu Jinda back to discuss the military plan. The Liaodong Peninsula was lost, so he had to find a way to inform Datang.
