    The stone bullets roared for three days in a row. Jiang Yishi spent three days in fear, and on the fourth day he couldn't bear it anymore.

    The Sui army's shelling for three days made the entire Liaodong city miserable.  Not only was it a blow to the city's garrison, but the soldiers and people in the city were also forced to panic and panic three times a day.

    Because they were really afraid of the Sui army's stone bullets, many soldiers did not dare to climb the city wall. As for the civilians, their legs trembled when they approached the city wall, fearing that the Sui army's stone bullets would fly.  Many military generals went to see Jiang Yishi one after another and asked to go to war. They bluntly said that they would rather die on the battlefield fighting the Sui army than be hit by endless stone bullets from the Sui army.

    Jiang Yishi was also helpless. Don't I want to attack, but the Sui army blocked the city gate with bows and crossbows, and there was no way they could get out.

    Jiang Yishi knew very well that if the fighting continued like this, the entire Liaodong City would be over in just a few days.  It wasn't that his soldiers weren't brave enough, but the Sui army's crushing attacks destroyed the morale of the Goguryeo army.

    Now we must fight back, and we must use a hearty victory to appease the increasingly chaotic military morale and strengthen the soldiers' beliefs.  It is a pity that the Sui army never attacked the city, giving them no sense of accomplishment in repelling the enemy's attack.

    "Zuo Xiong, we can no longer let the Sui army's catapults wantonly bombard the city."

    The Sui army used this earth slope that was almost flush with the Liaodong city wall to bombard the Liaodong city arbitrarily.  Compared with the artillery carriages and crossbows of the Sui army, Goguryeo's equipment is not worth mentioning.  In the past two days, the Goguryeo army was still fighting back with bows and arrows, and the catapults almost no longer roared. Because they were not prepared at the beginning, the target was exposed. Now all Goguryeo's catapults have been destroyed by the Sui army.

    Therefore, in Jiang Yishi's view, only by destroying the Sui army's catapults on the high slope, or even destroying the high slope, can the Sui army's momentum be suppressed and get a chance to breathe.

    However, although the Sui army's artillery carts were huge, they were wrapped in cowhide and covered with a thick layer of mud. The rockets at the top of the city were useless.  So if you want to destroy them, you must choose a sneak attack.

    Jiang Yishi has observed over the past few days that the Sui army is full of crossbowmen on the high slopes. At night, the defenses are still relatively loose. If there are cavalry rushing up the high slopes, they can quickly defeat the Sui army.

    Jiang Yishi decided to sneak attack the Sui army at night. At the same time, in order to paralyze the Sui army, he ordered people to go to the Sui army's camp and ask for surrender.

    This road was invincible in the last battle of Liaodong City, helping Goguryeo avoid several disasters. I wonder if the Sui army on the opposite side will be able to do this this time.

    But Jiang Yishi didn't care, as long as the Sui army on the opposite side thought he was helpless and became paralyzed.

    The lowered flag was raised again in Liaodong City, and soon a messenger came down from the city and came to the Sui army's camp.  Many soldiers who had experienced the Battle of Liaodong City last time were filled with indignation when they saw the Goguryeo envoys. It was the Goguryeo people's surrender again and again that made them fall short.

    The Goguryeo envoy seemed to be proficient in doing this kind of thing. He came to the Sui military camp unhurriedly. When he saw Huang Mingyuan, he made a big salute and said he was guilty of death.  Then they presented a letter of surrender and asked the Sui Dynasty to accept their surrender.

    Then the envoy said that there was chaos in the city and asked the Sui Dynasty for some time. After three days, the entire army would leave the city and surrender.

    Wang Rengong¡¯s eyes widened when he saw it. Damn it, even the words he said when surrendering were the same as before. Do you know how to change them?  He really thinks Sui is a fool.

    Huang Mingyuan looked overjoyed after hearing this. He happily accepted the letter of surrender and ordered all armies to stop attacking and wait for the Goguryeo army to leave the city and surrender.

    Some of the generals who had experienced the last battle of Liaodong City asked Huang Mingyuan not to believe in the secret surrender of the Goguryeo people and to be careful of fraud, but Huang Mingyuan didn't care and looked disapproving.

    General Wang Rengong even knelt in front of the army and described the shamelessness of the Goguryeo people in tears. He bluntly said that this must be a tactic of the Goguryeo people to slow down the army and must not be credulous.  It actually made the Goguryeo envoy quite embarrassed.

    In the end, Huang Mingyuan became furious and drove Wang Rengong out of the camp. He also ordered that anyone who disobeyed orders and dared to attack without permission would be killed without mercy.

    Huang Mingyuan certainly knew that these Goguryeo people could not be trusted. The Goguryeo people were greedy and unconnected. They were known for their capriciousness, greed and arrogance. Only those who were stupid at reading would believe the letter of surrender from the Goguryeo people.

    But the other party hopes to paralyze himself by borrowing the letter of surrender, and Huang Mingyuan is also planning to borrow the other party's letter of surrender to paralyze Jiang Yishi.  Anyway, everyone is acting to see whose acting skills are better.

    Huang Mingyuan was very aware of the threat that the Sui army posed to Goguryeo. He imagined himself as Jiang Yishi, changing positions, and found that if he had toHe sent troops to attack the high slopes west of the city.  After all, the catapults and bed crossbows on the high slopes were too threatening to Liaodong City.  This distance was already very close, and the Sui army had not yet begun to fill in the moat. Otherwise, the Sui army could have extended the fifty or sixty-foot-wide high slope to the bottom of the Liaodong city wall.

    When the Sui army's cavalry mounts the Goguryeo city wall from the high slope, they will not be able to defeat them.

    Since he guessed the opponent's possible strategy, in order to lure the opponent to attack, Huang Mingyuan deliberately made Gao Po's defense appear loose, in order to paralyze Jiang Yishi.

    Today, Jiang Yishi sent someone to surrender. Huang Mingyuan guessed that the other party was going to take action. He sent the envoy just to lower his vigilance.  That's why Huang Mingyuan happily accepted the letter of surrender, which in turn lowered his vigilance.

    At the same time, in order to cope with the opponent's possible attack on the high slope in the west of the city, the Sui army dug another trench on the west side of the high slope and sent all their elites to hide here to ambush.  Behind the high slope, Huang Mingyuan had people build a wooden wall with tall shields to prevent enemies from peeking.  Behind the wooden wall were all the elite cavalry of the Sui army.

    Now Huang Mingyuan is not afraid of Jiang Yishi playing tricks, but is worried that he is too honest and will not come out by guarding the city wall.

    But is Jiang Yishi honest?  He is not honest.  As an experienced veteran who had fought for a long time, he knew exactly how to deal with the fierce attack of the Sui army.  Therefore, when the envoy reported to him that the commander-in-chief of the Sui army readily accepted the surrender and asked him to leave the city and surrender immediately, and finally, after the envoy's request, he was asked to leave the city and surrender within three days, Jiang Yishi was ecstatic.  (The messenger also ate at the upper house and at the lower house)

    ??The stupid Sui people can never let go of their pride, let¡¯s see how he tears the Sui people¡¯s face off.

    Jiang Yishi secretly ordered to select 20,000 elite cavalry and put them all under the command of his confidant general An Dianbao.  Let them recharge their batteries, have a good meal, and wait until the third watch in the evening to open the west gate and launch an attack on the Sui army. They must destroy all the Sui army's high slopes and catapults in a very short period of time.

    Success or failure is tonight.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
