    After Quanxu left, Eulji Wende was so angry that he was trembling with anger. He wished he could send troops immediately and cut the Sui army on the opposite side into thousands of pieces.  But after thinking about it again and again, reason finally prevailed over emotion, and Ulji Mundeok finally decided not to fight the Sui army.  The Sui army was short of food and grass, so it was advantageous to fight in a decisive battle, but the Goguryeo army had fewer people and less food, so it was suitable for a stalemate with the opponent.  Eulji Wende knew very well that as long as the Sui army's food and grass were completely consumed, no matter how strong the army was, it would be nothing more than a two-legged sheep.

    Ulji Mundeuk then ordered the entire army to retreat and wait for the Sui army's next move.  He believed that Wenda on the north bank of the Sa River could stop more than 100,000 Sui troops.

    Eulji Wende was ready to give the Sui army room to display. He wanted to see what the Sui army wanted to do.

    Although Eulji Wende knew that the most famous god of war in the Sui Dynasty was Huang Mingyuan, he actually did not know Huang Mingyuan. He also did not know that Fengzhou generals like Cai Zhiyun, who came from poor families, were all trained by Huang Mingyuan bit by bit in Datong City.  .  Most of his military skills were inherited from Huang Mingyuan's teachings.

    Ulchi Wende is already crazy, but compared to Huang Mingyuan, his military use is still much worse.

    So he didn¡¯t know that Cai Jiyun never put himself in a passive escape position from beginning to end. Cai Jiyun¡¯s entire purpose was to defeat Ulji Munduk and win the battle completely.

    Huang Mingyuan once told the generals: "On the battlefield, let the other party follow your train of thought, rather than follow the opponent's train of thought. The situations vary greatly." That's it.

    After Quanxu returned to the camp, he reported to Cai Zhiyun on the situation in the Goguryeo camp.  As he expected, although the Goguryeo people had the upper hand this time, their losses were not small. They could not afford to compete with the Sui army.

    What excites Cai Zhiyun the most is the news that Dugulan's troops are still alive.

    Dugulan alone is worth fifty thousand troops.

    Cai Zhiyun immediately ordered the army to pack up and prepare to attack.  The Sui army can supply food for up to eight days, which means that the Sui army must complete all strategic objectives within eight days.

    Soon, the scouts reported the news that the Goguryeo people were retreating.

    Cai Zhiyun is determined.  Of course he knew that the Goguryeo people did not dare to fight with them. The annihilation of their entire army was just a drop in the bucket for the Sui Dynasty. If Eulji Wende's entire army was annihilated, Goguryeo would be destroyed.  Cai Jiyun also knew what Ulji Munduk had in mind, but what he wanted was for Goguryeo to retreat and give him enough room to move.

    After all, what the Toyosu generals are best at is mobile warfare.

    Cai Zhiyun then ordered to divide the entire army into two.  With Huang Mingli as the main general, he commanded his troops, Gao Yuanbei and Xin Wenli, disguised as the entire main force, and went south to rescue Dugu Lan.  Cai Zhiyun also commanded Zhou Zhongan's tribe, Yaojunsu's tribe and Zhang Xikang's tribe, who were responsible for attacking the humiliating city.

    The city of Hanyi is close to the sea, and the Sui army's route to Pyongyang this time is also close to the sea. This also means that Goguryeo has no ambush in the entire west.

    Cai Zhiyun ordered the entire army to discard all unnecessary supplies and head south.

    Under the gaze of the Goguryeo scouts, the army headed south.

    Eulji Wende was also surprised when he got the news that the Sui army was heading south. He was a little unclear about what the Sui army wanted to do.  Shouldn't the Sui army take advantage of this gap to cross the river and go north, fleeing back to the west of the Yalu River?

    To the south?

    Eulji Wende suddenly remembered what the Sui envoy said today about "bringing back the Liaodong Army." Could it be that this Sui Army wanted to go south to rescue the surrounded Sui Army.

    too crazy.

    Eulji Wende suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. This Sui army was too tough and powerful. He didn't know any other way to completely defeat the opponent.

    At this time, Ulji Mundeok had no choice but to order the entire army to pursue the Sui army southward. At the same time, he heard that all the ministries on the southern front were holding the defensive line to stop the Sui army.

    Fortunately, the Sui army did not have much food. The more people they had, the shorter the time they could support them.  As long as the Goguryeo army firmly traps the Sui army here, this battle will be invincible.

    ¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤

    At this time, the Liaodong Army, which had been holding firm for three days and three nights in the northeast of the ancient city of Hunmi (formerly located in the southeast of Anju District, South Pyongan Province, North Korea), had run out of ammunition and food.

    When he stayed, Dugu Lan knew what kind of ending he would face.  But seeing the end approaching, the exhausted soldiers were all weak from hunger, but they died bravely. He was still in pain.

    Originally, the last person who should be left behind is Dugu Lan, but at this time, as a relative of his Dugu family, who has received the country's favor in his life, how can he not sacrifice his life for the country?

    ?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? What Uncle Qi Du Guzheng did, if it were any other family, they would have been exterminated long ago.  And today, Emperor Longen has not punished the Dugu family, but can we still expect the Emperor to do the same???Treat the Dugu family generally.  Dugu Lan knew that only his own blood could wash away the emperor's grudge against the Dugu family and buy a future for the Dugu family.

    After leading his troops to stay, Dugu Lan ordered people to organize defense on the spot.  Dugu Lan set up his camp on a high ground and deployed a defense line along the mountains.  He also ordered people to dig countless deep ditches in the front to delay the attack of the opponent's cavalry.

    These things were all taught to Dugu Lan by Huang Mingyuan when he was in Mobei, but he didn't expect to use them today.  He thought again of the days when he was a general under Huang Mingyuan. If Huang Mingyuan had been commanding this time, the Sui army might not be in the situation it is today.

    The Liaodong Army has been out of food for a day.

    It seems that the Goguryeo people on the opposite side also knew the situation facing the Liaodong Army, so although they were heavily surrounded, they did not attack.  This group of evil thieves will wait until their rations are exhausted and their legs and feet become weak, and then they will come to harvest their lives.

    Dugulan ordered several counterattacks against the Goguryeo people, but without success.

    Today is the fourth day, and there is bound to be no miracle.

    Early in the morning, Cao Cao in the army reported to Dugu Lan that the army's food supply was exhausted and there was really not a grain of rice left. The Sui army was about to starve.  Dugu Lan knew that it was acceptable to be hungry, but Sui Jun was hungry for countless meals instead of just one period.

    Dugu Lan gave the order to kill the horses for food. After breakfast, the whole army broke out.

    First kill the draft horses, pack horses, and donkeys, and then the war horses.

    There were not many horses in the army, and a large number of horses were lost due to previous defeats. Killing the horses at this time was tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.  But now this is a cup of poison, and Dugu Lan has to hold his nose and drink it.

    "Pull my war horse down and kill him!"

    At this time, Duguyan, the leader of Dugulan's personal guards, said in surprise: "General, the horses in this army can last for a while. There is no need to kill the general's horses anyway."

    Dugu Lan stroked the hair of the war horse. This war horse had been with him for ten years. When he defeated Bujia Khan, Huang Mingyuan selected it from many good horses and gave it to him.  For more than ten years, this horse has followed him in military campaigns north and south, in east and west expeditions, and has made numerous meritorious deeds, just like his family members.  But now, he has no other choice but to let it die like this.

    "What about my horse, it will still have to be sacrificed for the Sui Dynasty. I just want everyone to know that if I lose this battle and the whole army is annihilated, I will live a life of justice and will never disgrace the banner behind me."

    At this time, the grief-stricken Dugulan's eyes were slightly red, and his voice was a little choked.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
