The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 814
No matter how Li Daozong persuaded him, Xuan Shijing made up his mind and left Beisha with only three hundred soldiers from Dongshan County, heading for Jian'an City.

But before leaving, Xuan Shijing asked Li Daozong for someone, someone who knew how to contact Liu Hongji.

Anshi City, the distance from the battlefield on the sea is more advantageous than Beisha City.

Recently, Xuan Shijing and Li Daozong have been busy with the three acres of land in front of Beisha City. They know nothing about the situation on the sea except that Liu Hongji's navy is fine.

Xuan Shijing led people away from Beisha City, and brought three days of dry food and supplies, but it may be that he did not want to steal the city.

That's right, stealing Anshicheng.

The remains of [-] Goguryeo soldiers in Beisha City have been cleared out, which makes Xuan Shijing a bit pity. If it is not for the shortage of manpower, Anshi City can be taken down without bloodshed by relying on these dead bodies alone.

Because Xuan Shijing remembered that when the Mongolian army marched westward in later generations, they used catapults to throw corpses into the city to cause plague.

However, this kind of thing seemed to have no psychological barriers for the Mongolian army at that time, but for the Central Plains, even if the battle was won by this method, there must be a lot of scolding, even if Xuan Shijing Thinking about it, Li Daozong would definitely not agree.

The [-]-year-old culture of China has a profound heritage that makes people yearn for it. At the same time, it is tightly bound by moral constraints, which makes people unable to use their hands and feet.

For the foreigners on the battlefield, the Central Plains people still use their lofty moral standards to restrain themselves. However, in the eyes of the foreigners, this seems to be a bit stupid, and it is so stupid that they can be used at any time.

However, the establishment of moral standards is a good way to draw a clear distinction between humans and animals.
Xuan Shijing did not openly say that he is a good person, his moral standards are based on his own people, not those who are hostile to Tang Dynasty.

Otherwise, whether it is the [-] Goguryeo support soldiers or the [-] grain transport soldiers in the valley, no one will be left alive under the command of the general.

The hatred between Goguryeo and the people of the Central Plains, if you count on your fingers, it will be too much.

Xuan Shijing led people to set off towards Jian'an City, and these days Jian'an City seemed to be isolated from the world, with no connection in any aspect, but in fact, except for the navy, the rest of Jian'an City had no How many people are there.

People in Goguryeo would never have imagined that apart from Liu Hongji, a powerful naval force at sea, the Tang's vanguard army was already nailed to the Liaodong Peninsula and Beisha City like a sharp sword.

If there is no vanguard army, both Beisha City and Jian'an City are safe, because Liu Hongji's naval forces are besieging Liu Hongji's navy from three sides on the sea, and Liu Hongji will not have the extra energy to covet Jian'an City.

But since the vanguard is here, let's do what he said.

In five days, Xuan Shijing and three hundred soldiers arrived at Jian'an City. The target of 300 people was neither big nor small. If they appeared together in Jian'an City, they would definitely attract people's attention. At this juncture, Jian'an City's defenses will not be relaxed, and the navy is fighting at sea.

"Master Hou, what shall we do?" The team of 300 people stopped in the nearby forest, and Chang Le had already made a round trip in Jian'an City.

Jian'an City is not a traditional military city. In the coastal area, there are still many ordinary Goguryeo people who eat by the sea and live in Jian'an City. The gates of the city are always wide open, but no matter whether it is an individual or a caravan, entering and leaving the city must be subject to supervision and interrogation.

If it weren't for Jian'an City in the coastal area with such an open attitude, how could the Chamber of Commerce of the Hou Mansion have such a place in Jian'an City?

Jian'an City produces all kinds of Goguryeo specialties, and there is an endless stream of chambers of commerce welcoming and sending them there. If they want to guard Jian'an City and turn it into a naval military city, unless they are cruel-hearted and don't want to To such a generous tax.

And the officials of Jian'an City, are they willing?

Most of Jian'an City's income is based on the tax revenue from these caravans traveling from south to north. Putting an end to the traffic of caravans is undoubtedly a way out.

There is no good fertile land in this place for the Goguryeo people to farm.

"What's going on in Jian'an City?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"It's a very ordinary city. The city gate facing the sea is not accessible to ordinary people. It is reserved for Goguryeo's navy in Jian'an City. The naval commander's camp in Jian'an City is just at the south gate of Jian'an City. They are stationed outside, but now it is estimated that there are not many people stationed in the camp." Chang Le said.

The so-called ordinary is also compared with the towns of Datang.

"Have the guards in Jian'an City noticed?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Looking around at the guards in the entire Jian'an City, there are more than a thousand people in total." Chang Le said: "The guards on the city wall are about 100 people, and the four walls add up to 400 people. The soldiers patrolling the city, counted, there are about 300 people."

In this way, the total number of guards in Jian'an City during the day is only more than 700 people. If it is divided into day and night rotations, the number of guards is twice that of more than 400 people.
There must be more than these people. When discussing with Li Daozong in Beisha City, the information obtained by Jian'an City will definitely not be less than 2000 people.

If so, where are the rest?
Obviously, I am afraid that they are in the naval camp in the south of the city.

"Is the south gate of Jian'an City open all the time?" Xuan Shijing asked.

Chang Le shook his head: "No, the four gates of Jian'an City are always open. The north gate in front of us is the only one, and the remaining three gates are tightly closed."

"It seems that if the navy does not leave, the south gate will not be opened easily. This will be easy." Xuan Shijing said: "The 300 of us will camp in the forest first, keep a low profile, and don't let anyone I found out that Chang Le and I will go to the city again to find a way to let us 300 people sneak into the city."

Obviously, Xuan Shijing said this to the three hundred chiefs beside him. Once Xuan Shijing and Chang Le entered the city, these three hundred chiefs were the leaders of the 300 people.

"Don't worry, Lord Hou." Zhang Daniu said.

Zhao Tiezhu and Fang Shu also nodded in agreement, and Xuan Shijing and Chang Le left, which means that the three of them are really going to be on their own. Although it is not an important task, they can do it outside Jian'an City surrounded by enemies. It is also necessary to be very careful not to be exposed.
