The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 816
Although Goguryeo has the upper hand in the battle at sea, it is still difficult for the navy of the Tang Dynasty, and the shortcomings of the navy of the Tang Dynasty are also very clear. The naval expedition fought in Liaodong, but the camp was far away. For example, taking Jian'an City Navy as an example, it takes only half a day from the camp to the battlefield, while the Datang Navy takes two or three days to travel from Donglai or Pingzhou to Liaodong.

After a war, it will be more difficult for Datang's navy to fight in a long line, and to solve this situation, we can only wait for Datang's rear guard army to come to Liaodong.

Liu Hongji knew this well, so he was not in a hurry when the battle was stalemate. The [-] sailors held back the [-] sailors of Goguryeo, and it was enough to hold them down.

Before the guard army of Datang came to Liaodong, everything was just a small fight, whether it was the vanguard army of Beisha City or the [-] navy.

Because there is a war here, maybe Quan Gai Suwen will send envoys to meet Li Er Majesty to discuss some terms, everything is possible.

After Xuan Shijing asked Chang Le to invite the shopkeeper to the room, he began to arrange related matters.

"Shopkeeper, first of all, I'm familiar with the situation in Jian'an City. Next, please help the shopkeeper to transport the remaining people and their armor from outside the city into Jian'an City." Xuan Shi Jing said to the shopkeeper.

"Yes, Master Hou." The shopkeeper responded: "Master Hou, this subordinate has already thought about it. The military master outside the city can pretend to be the guard of the caravan. As for the armor and weapons, they will be placed on the outer layer of the carriage. Some irrelevant things, and at the city gate, the subordinates will take care of them in advance."

Xuan Shijing nodded: "Very well, the next thing is how to steal Jian'an City, shopkeeper, I have to trouble you, prepare some wine and meat, the more the better."

"Yes, it's not hard to find." The shopkeeper said.

"Chang Le, take your buddy to the pharmacy tomorrow to get some medicine. This is the prescription." Xuan Shijing handed the prescription to Chang Le: "When you come back, grind these medicines into powder, the shopkeeper, Find a buddy who is born in the city, and cooperate with Changle."

"Master Hou plans to use medicine?" Chang Le asked.

"Yeah, if you want to steal Jian'an City, with 300 people, it is impossible to defeat so many Goguryeo soldiers in Jian'an City. After Jian'an City is in hand, there is no need to hide your identity, shopkeeper. "Xuan Shijing said.

There is no need to return the city in hand to Goguryeo.

Chang Le opened the prescription in his hand, browsed it roughly, and knew what kind of medicine it was formulated for. As the saying goes, a long illness makes a doctor. Chang Ying has been bedridden in bed for so many years, and Chang Le has already become half a doctor.

It was recorded in the prescription that it was a very common Mongolian sweat medicine. If you go to the pharmacy to get the medicine and make it yourself, the degree of violence can be seen as mediocre.

Similarly, these prescriptions are not difficult for Xuan Shijing.

"Master Hou, if this gets out, it will damage your reputation." Chang Le looked at Xuan Shijing hesitantly.

"War, what reputation do you want? If you want to be proud of yourself, just follow the example of those 'big scholars' in the imperial court and let them write Goguryeo to death with a pen. Benhou is now a general, and his business is killing people. What is needed on the battlefield is to use any means, if the Goguryeo people don’t die, we will be the ones who will die.” Xuan Shijing sneered nonchalantly.

Chang Le was stunned for a moment, then nodded in response.

What my Lord Hou said is also good, he cherishes his wings too much, he should just stay in Chang'an honestly, why come to Liaodong.

"In this case, after five days, Master Liu Hongji's sailors will lure away the sailors from Jian'an City. In the evening, it will be a good opportunity for us to do it." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes!" Several people in the room responded one after another.

Before that, the person Xuan Shijing and Li Daozong wanted who could contact Liu Hongji came in handy. After the plan was made, Xuan Shijing immediately wrote to Liu Hongji to ask his navy to cooperate.

Anyway, taking Jian'an City this time is also for Liu Hongji's navy, so there is no need to be afraid that Liu Hongji will not work hard. If he is really not tempted, then let him continue to run back and forth between Pingzhou and Liaodong waters.

Everything is properly arranged, and now we are waiting for the [-] government soldiers to enter the city. If Jian'an City is captured, the [-] government soldiers will definitely not be able to defend the city with so many Goguryeo people. The border water division cooperated
Time passed little by little, and the government soldiers outside the city had already entered Jian'an City in batches, and everything was waiting for the movement of the naval camp in the south of the city.

As long as the Goguryeo navy in Jian'an City moves, it means that Liu Hongji has already made a move, and Xuan Shijing's side can also act.

In the afternoon of the same day, the shopkeeper came to the backyard in a hurry.

"Master Hou, Lord Hou!" The shopkeeper trotted into the room.

"What happened? You're so flustered." Xuan Shijing raised his head and looked at the shopkeeper who ran in.

"Master Hou, there has been movement in the naval camp in the south of the city. The men outside the city just entered the city, and they came back to say that the entire army of the Goguryeo Navy in the south of the city has already set off." The shopkeeper said.

The man also left the city from the north gate, and went to the naval camp in the south of the city to monitor all day long. Once there was any movement, he would go back to the north gate and enter the city to report. So when Xuan Shijing received the news, the people in Jian'an City The navy has already set off.

"Very good! It seems that Mr. Liu Hongji has set off." Xuan Shijing said with joy on his face: "Let's start to act before dinner this evening, shopkeeper, mobilize your official contacts in Jian'an City, and prepare us Send the wine and meat to the Goguryeo soldiers in Jian'an City, and after dinner, the three hundred soldiers in my city began to move."

"Yes, Master Hou!" The shopkeeper responded, with unstoppable excitement in his voice. After so many years in Jian'an City, he never thought that one day, he would be able to participate in the action of taking the city. If Jian'an City is here, this is naked His military exploits are enough to cover his wife and children in Guanzhong.

"Chang Le, take two of you to the South Gate Naval Camp and wait for the team sent by Master Liu Hongji. After we take down Jian'an City, we will take over the entire Jian'an City together with them," Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes, Lord Hou." Chang Le responded.Chang Le naturally knew in his heart that if the Goguryeo people in the city rioted, they would not be able to suppress it no matter what.

"Next, just wait for the evening to come." Xuan Shijing's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile.

The plan is perfect, but when it is implemented, there must be no mistakes. Once there is a mistake, it will put everyone in a situation where there is no redemption.
