Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 507 Ambush Li Shiji

Li Shiji led Pei Xingjian and Zhang Wenguan directly to Jian'an City.

At this time, Pei Xingjian discovered that Li Shiji did not hide his figure and let others ignore his army formation.

Squeezing out the military formation at this moment will give people a sense of essence and introversion, as if the Bingzhou cavalry they are in is just a miscellaneous army.

Pei Xingjian was puzzled, and asked Li Shiji his own question.

"We raided Xuantu City, but we didn't completely block the news, and our goal was to lure Goguryeo's troops out of the thick city walls and carry out the war of annihilation in the wild.

So we don't need to hide ourselves anymore, but we need to give these Goguryeo soldiers an impression that we are weak.

As long as they charge against us, we will definitely lose! "

Li Shiji explained to Pei Xingjian that, to put it bluntly, he was just pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

Of course, Li Shiji wanted to use Goguryeo to pretend to be pigs and eat tigers when he didn't know his soldiers. If the other party knew his combat power, how could he deceive the other party? Could it be that he really regarded others as idiots?

"We raided Xuantu, so although Goguryeo knew we were coming, they couldn't judge our strength.

But I don't understand how we should force the Goguryeo army out. After all, the Goguryeo army can keep its doors closed.

We are bringing cavalry, which is good for raids, but not for siege! "Pei Xingjian said.

"Yeah!" Li Shiji also praised Pei Xingjian's judgment, glanced at the corn that Goguryeo replanted in May, and said quietly, "Then I have to thank the King of Wei, he saved us a lot of trouble by planning first! "

"Huh?" Pei Xingjian was a little dazed when he heard Li Shiji's words, but Pei Xingjian immediately understood.

Li Shiji said, "Notify the soldiers that all the fields along the way will be trampled and burned. We don't need to give the Goguryeo people any food, we just need to destroy it!"

When Pei Xingjian heard this, he couldn't help being shocked. Li Shiji's ruthlessness when he made a move shocked Pei Xingjian a little, as if Pei Xingjian saw another side of Li Shiji.

Because the grain planted on the plowed fields during this period of time is just young shoots, and it may take at least two or three months before the real grain grows.

The harvest will not be available until October or even November, but now Li Shiji has cut off the hope of the Goguryeo people to survive.

As a Tang army, as long as Liaodong City is broken, this area is likely to be under his control. It has to be said that Li Shiji's decision is aimed at the lack of food in Goguryeo.

And Tang Jun himself didn't need to worry about supplies at all, at least for a short period of time. Five thousand cavalry came and went like the wind, which was enough to completely destroy the replanted farmland in this area.

As for those cities whose four gates had been blocked, Li Shiji had no interest at all, and had no intention of attacking them at all.

Li Shiji was more of a neutral and orderly person, and he was the most powerful wall of the Tang Dynasty after Li Jing.

Basically, as long as he can achieve his goal, he doesn't mind what means he uses, of course, the premise is that there is someone above him.

In contrast, Pei Xingjian is a kind and lawful person.

At this moment, under Li Shiji's order, all the fields in the northeast of Liaodong City in Goguryeo were completely destroyed.

After the destruction of these fields was completed, they went to Jian'an City. The gates of this city had been closed tightly, leaving no chance for Li Shiji.

But Li Shiji didn't have the slightest nostalgia, and immediately changed direction, going to the next city to cause harm.

For Li Shiji, it is good for these cities to choose to stick to them behind closed doors. When he destroys all the cultivated land outside the city in sevens and eighties, the food trauma caused by King Wei to them will be further increased, so that they will more painful.

It must be worth mentioning that during this crusade against Goguryeo, Li Tai promised to maintain logistical supplies for two years. Whether these soldiers believed it or not, at least it could bring them great psychological comfort.

As for Li Shiji relying on the various supplies that Li Tai prepared for him, Li Shiji has the confidence and time to attract the soldiers of Goguryeo to fight a decisive battle with him, otherwise the Goguryeo people next year will be ready to eat soil!

"Damn it, this army of the Tang Dynasty is so hateful, it must be wiped out!"

Gao Dashi, the head coach of Liaodong, hammered the table hard, but there were several places marked with crosses with cinnabar on the table, basically all of them were harmed by Li Shiji!
"Although the tactics of this Tang army are vicious, for us, he just stepped on the door of life, and we must find a way to get rid of him!" Lieutenant Cui Ming said.

In fact, Li Shiji's disturbance in the rear was even greater than Li Shiji's own expectations.

Because the interior of Goguryeo is not a unified iron plate, even if the two sides chose to cooperate because of the Tang Dynasty's crusade against Goguryeo.

But in essence, the top layer of this country is torn, which makes the overall efficiency of the whole country greatly reduced.

And this kind of contradiction is really not that if the above said cooperation, then they can cooperate directly without reason.

After all, the so-called strength itself is composed of the middle-level backbone and the upper-level leaders. If the leader is capable, he will lead this force. If the leader is not capable, he is just a puppet pushed on the table.

From the day Yuan Gai Suwen seized power, it actually caused a split between him and the royal family.

Also when allocating supplies, Yuan Gai Suwen would instinctively withhold supplies from the Gao clan.

In this farming era of the small-scale peasant economy, the Gao royal family relied on the army and land they controlled, not to mention how rich they were, but at least they were able to be self-sufficient.

In particular, Dahang City, a port that trades with Tianjin, exists, and can get more supplies of various materials, but Li Tai took the bottom line, and Dahang City was directly abolished.

For the Gao clan, it may not be less harmful than Li Tai's plan to buy a large number of Goguryeo specialties and make more Goguryeo people give up farming.

And after losing an important material supply point, the Gao family actually still attaches great importance to the cultivated fields outside the city, because they can't entrust their lives to Yuan Gai Suwen's hands.

If so, then Yuan Gai Su Wen would not need to continue to support the current treasure king of Goguryeo. To kill the Gao family, for Yuan Gai Su Wen, he would almost be able to find a way to get himself into the throne smoothly.

Under such circumstances, Li Shiji's strategy this time is to take over Li Tai's plan based on destroying food and grass, food and grass!

If the Gao family wanted to break the situation, they would either treat Li Shiji as non-existent. As long as Yuan Gai Suwen delivered the food, all of Li Shiji's efforts would become clowns.

Of course, the biggest possibility is that Li Shiji will lead the cavalry to fight against the grain transport team to see whether it is grain entering the city or Li Shiji winning.

The Gao family decisively chose another method, which is to find a place where Li Shiji will definitely go to ambush, and eliminate Li Shiji's Tang army. This will not only solve the trouble, but more importantly, severely damage Da Don's morale.

Gao Dashi looked at the battlefield and estimated Li Shiji's direction, saying:
"Although this man is bold, the distance between him and the main force of their army is not far, about forty to sixty miles away.

If we really ambush him, we only have one day at most, if we escape from the encirclement, all previous efforts will be wasted! "

Li Shiji didn't really put all his eggs in one basket. He must make Goguryeo completely starved of food.

Essentially speaking, I still want to attract Goguryeo's troops and then have a decisive battle, so I will put myself in a relatively dangerous position, but it is definitely not a Jedi.

Li Shiji couldn't do Li Jing's ability to manage steadily for hundreds of miles without reason, but he could judge Li Daozong's traveling speed, and then walk among the cities of Goguryeo according to Li Daozong's traveling speed. .

"This army doesn't look strong, that's why it was sent to carry out such pure destruction behind us!" Cui Ming said,

"Theoretically speaking, as long as one cavalry entangles it, and then another troop defeats it head-on!"

Gao Dashi shook his head and said, "It is impossible for the Tang Dynasty to attack thousands of miles away, and the troops who came here were weak.

If you think it is weak, it is likely that this unit may be a endurance talent, which can minimize the need for logistics.

That's why they let them disrupt our arrangement behind Hou Men.

To deal with it, I think at least two talented troops are needed! "

"Two talented troops!" Cui Ming said with a bit of surprise, "Even in our Goguryeo, there may not be more than twenty talented generals in the war department. Now we have Where to find it!?"

"Go to Gaimu City or Anshi City for help!" Gao Dashi said seriously,
"If you plan with the intention of annihilating the opponent, in addition to needing two talented troops, you also need several times the number of the opponent's pawns, otherwise the annihilation battle will not be possible. After all, their endurance seems a bit too sufficient."

Soon, Gao Dashi sent the letter in his hand to the City Master of Gaimu City and the City Master of Anshi City.

It's just that the lord of Anshi City chose to refuse, while Gao Jian, the lord of Gaimu City, chose to respond to Gao Dashi's plan and led the main force of Gaimu City to support Gao Dashi.

This is the impact of Goguryeo's dichotomous politics.

If all of them ordered the Treasure King, then Gao Jian would never dare to wait for soldiers to support him.

But because Gao Dashi is quite influential in the Gao clan's power, and since Yuan Gai Su Wen's rebellion, the Gao clan's royal family has not listened to Yuan Gai Su Wen, so they have formed a small circle within themselves, the so-called His military orders are no match for his own arbitrariness.

For example, Gao Dashi was close to Gao Jian, so they had some contacts, but the relationship between the mayor of Anshi City was farther away. After thinking about it, he still did not choose to follow Gao Dashi, but Gao Dashi did not agree, so Gao Dashi was fine Method.

The status of the two parties is the same, no one is more senior than the other, willing to come is a sympathy, not to come is a duty.

And with the arrangement of Gao Dashi, it was as if a net rushed towards Li Shiji.

"General, I feel that there is something wrong with the Korean soldiers I met these days?" Pei Xingjian was keenly aware of something, and immediately came to report to Li Shiji!
"Tell me, what's wrong?" Li Shiji didn't panic when he heard Pei Xingjian's words, he was calm.

"What should I say? I feel that whether we go east or west, it seems that there are more scouts in this area!" Pei Xingjian said, "Some scouts have even died in the fight with Goguryeo scouts." !"

"Yeah!" Li Shiji nodded and said, "It means that the people in Goguryeo have already reflected on it and want to get rid of us!"

"If this is the case, wouldn't it be dangerous for us to continue walking!" Pei Xingjian worried after hearing Li Shiji's words, "We will immediately divert to the west and evacuate to meet Li Junwang, so it will be considered safe!"

"If that's the case, didn't we plan to lure out Goguryeo's troops, why are we withdrawing now!" Zhang Wenguan couldn't help but said, "Isn't this in our plan!"

Li Shiji shook his head when he heard Zhang Wenguan's words, "We have led out.
But now he is going to fight me, not me.
There is no need to rush into the trap that the opponent has already arranged at the right time and place, just withdraw first! "

Li Shiji's words were full of calm, "Order the whole army, let's attack west!"

Of course, in terms of location, it is actually a strategic retreat.
But the soldiers hadn't looked at the map, and now that they heard that Li Shiji was attacking westward, and that he came from Xuantu, he was basically heading westward, so naturally he didn't have any doubts.

A group of people naturally maintained high morale and acted according to Li Shiji's order!
As for Li Shiji's retreat, it was no surprise to Gao Dashi.
Because as the scouts I dispatched shrink, it feels a bit like closing the net, so I could have waited.
But this time Gao Jian's cavalry has come over, so it is natural for Gao Jian's cavalry to entangle the opponent, and it is enough for his own army to surround and kill him!
"Brother, this time I ask you to entangle the opponent's army!" Gao Dashi begged Gao Jian.

"Clan brother, don't worry, I'm leading my own headquarters to completely entangle the other party!" Gao Jian assured, patting his chest.

Soon Gao Jian led his own troops and caught up with Li Shiji's headquarters. Even though Li Shiji's troops retreated calmly under Li Shiji's command on a few small slopes, in Gao Jian's eyes, they were getting closer!
"Don't go, general Tang, look at your grandfather wanting your life!" Gao Jian put his bow and arrows in both hands, and shot at the soldiers!

And Li Shiji had managed to dispatch the heads of the troops after running for a long time. Not only Gao Jian's war department was chasing Li Shiji's troops, but Li Shiji was also adjusting the formation of his own troops with the help of distance.

Now that the adjustment is complete, there is no need to continue running!

"For a quarter of an hour, break through this army!"

During Li Shiji's words, he withdrew the army formation that had been pretending to be weak, and the momentum of the headquarters seemed to hit Gao Jian's face like a wave of anger, which even made him a little bit blindsided.

But when he looked at the situation on the battlefield now, he saw the liberated Li Shiji headquarters, chiseled in his army formation.

Gao Jian never expected that someone would choose such a precise time, and his order could not be delivered in time, and the entire army was cut open!
