    A confused battle, the Goguryeo people fought in a confused manner and lost in a confused manner.

    Wen Da only had more than 30,000 people left at this time, and he was trapped in Wugu City. Although he had many soldiers and sufficient food, he was not in a desperate situation, but he was actually in danger.

    There is the main force of the Sui army in front, and there may also be the main force of the Sui army behind.  These tens of thousands of elites are trapped in the isolated city. They can neither stop the enemy nor contain the enemy. What's the point of staying here any longer?

    Wenda is ready to abandon Wugu City and return to aid Pyongyang.

    But it¡¯s not that easy to leave.  The Goguryeo army suffered a new defeat, suffered heavy casualties, and had low morale. Once it broke through in a big way, its combat effectiveness would be worrying.  And if they break through to the south, who knows whether there will be an ambush by the Sui army on the southern front.

    With only this small army at his disposal, Wen Da did not dare to take any risks.

    At this time, many people in the army also knew that there was no way to defend Wugu City.  But there is nothing we can do about the current situation.

    "Brother, are we ready to break out?"

    Although Yu Pingren joined the army, he was not Wen Da's confidant, but a Bingcao Shenpan (equivalent to the minister of the Ministry of War), a real important minister in the court.  Therefore, he did not shy away from the current situation of the Goguryeo army. Although he was requesting Wenda, it was actually a request.

    Of course, this is a further doubt on Wenda¡¯s commanding ability.

    Wen Da understood what Yu Pingren meant, but he didn¡¯t feel dissatisfied.

    Breaking through is inevitable, the question is how to break through.

    "Senior Yu, I am determined to break out of the encirclement, but I am worried that the Sui army will ambush me in the back, so I have never made up my mind. I don't know what good advice Yu can have in this regard."

    ¡° For an old politician like Yu Pingren, if he is asked to try to sway the government, he will be very handy, and it is possible for him to come up with ten or eight strategies at once.  But if he is asked to turn the tide, it will be difficult for him.

    Therefore, Yu Pingren was speechless for Wen Da's inquiry.

    "well!"

    Yu Pingren couldn't help but sigh: "You can't walk, you can't walk, you can't fight the Sui army on the opposite side, but you can't fight. What on earth do the Sui people want to do?"

    If the Sui army launched an attack at this time, although everyone would be tired of defending the city, the result would be acceptable to everyone. After all, the opponent's target was fixed.  But one part of the Sui army was stationed in Phoenix City, and the other was encamped more than ten miles away, just like a tiger in the dark, watching eagerly but never taking action, which chilled everyone even more.

    Yu Pingren couldn't help but said: "It would be great if we could be like those Sui troops and miraculously break through the Juhe River like Fei."

    At this moment, Wen Da's mind flashed, and a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared.

    How could I have forgotten the way the Sui army forcibly crossed the Sui River?  The Sui army could force the crossing, and so could they.

    On the mountains on both sides of the Kuei River, there are mostly giant trees, which are tied into bamboo rafts. They can also go south along the Kuei River and suddenly reach the Yalu River, and then they can return to Pyongyang smoothly.

    Thinking of this, Wen Da hurriedly recruited the generals to discuss breaking out of the encirclement.

    Wen Da is very enthusiastic, but everyone is not optimistic about Wen Da's ideas.  Relying on a temporary raft made of wood to cross the Sui River, this sounds so unreliable.

    Faced with everyone¡¯s doubts, Wen Da had only one sentence, ¡°The Sui army can cross, and so can our army.¡±

    ¡°Perhaps everyone is unwilling to stay in Wugu City anymore, so they have no choice but to agree with Wenda¡¯s suggestion.

    Wenda then ordered people to secretly go outside the city to cut down trees and build rafts.

    In fact, if you want to break through, the most important thing is to hide it from the Sui army.  There are still an unknown number of Sui troops outside the city.  Once the Sui army discovered their true purpose and launched an attack while the Goguryeo army was sneaking across, the Goguryeo army on the raft would have no ability to resist.

    In order to successfully deceive the Sui army, Wenda ordered people to dig deep ditches outside the city and carry stones up the mountain, pretending to hold on to the city.

    After several days of continuous fighting, the Goguryeo army finally built hundreds of large rafts on the mountain east of Wugu City.

    Wen Da was worried that the Sui army would find out, so he didn't have enough time to return and had to sneak across overnight.

    That evening, it was time to plan the sneak crossing.

    Except for a very small number of the more than 30,000 Goguryeo soldiers who were left in the city as suspects to hide from the Sui army's scouts, the rest all came out from the east gate and quietly entered the mountains and forests to the east of Mount Goguryeo.

    Throughout the mountain forest, Wenda has hidden hundreds of rafts.

    At this time, the moonlight was sparse and the line of sight was unclear, but no one dared to turn on the lights.

    The crowd pushed the raft into the river, and thenGot on the raft.  At this time, because it was night and the light was not good, many people fell directly into the water.

    The rafts were pushed into the river one by one, and then headed south along the Jue River.

    Wenda stood on the shore, looking at the isolated city in the mountains, feeling sad.  After leaving this time, I don¡¯t know if I can come back again in this life.

    At this time, a scout came forward to report.  A Sui army patrol is coming in this direction.

    Wen Da was shocked. Of course he didn't take a small patrol in his eyes.  But what he was worried about was that after the patrol discovered their traces, they would attract the main force of the Sui army.

    Of course they can withdraw to Wugu City, but there is only one chance to sneak across. If they are discovered by the Sui Army this time, the Sui Army will definitely strengthen the defense along the Jihe River, and it will be impossible to sneak across again.

    And more importantly, the Goguryeo River was full of Goguryeo soldiers. They were on unprotected rafts and had no ability to protect themselves.

    With his heart in his throat, Wen Da could only order someone to step forward, disguised as a scout, to stop the other party.

    But the crisis was soon over.  The Sui army patrol members seemed to be worried about going too deep into the territory of the Goguryeo people. They just walked around and chose to return, but did not find the stowaway Goguryeo army.

    After all these twists and turns, Wen Da ordered the entire army to speed up the smuggling.

    At this time, there was another storm in the river. For unknown reasons, a raft suddenly disintegrated during the march.  The soldiers on the raft fell into the river one after another.

    These Goguryeo soldiers were not good at swimming in water, so they drowned in the water one after another.

    Seeing that the raft was not reliable, the people behind were even more worried and did not even dare to get on the raft.

    It was Wenda who personally boarded the raft and demonstrated it to the soldiers in the river, so that everyone dared to board the raft.

    After crossing the river until daybreak, most of the soldiers had already crossed the river.

    At this time, Wenda discovered that there were not enough rafts and he had to come back to pick up the remaining thousands of people.  Wenda had no choice but to order the last batch of rafts not to rush to Yalu River, but to land ashore and then come back to transport the remaining soldiers.

    Thinking about it in Wenda, as long as we evade the Sui army's scouts today, reach the Yalu River, and transfer for one day, everyone can completely cross the river.

    But what Wenda didn¡¯t know was that the last four thousand people failed to catch up with the main force.

    A horizontal wooden raft was traveling in the river, slowly heading south. Wen Da left Wugu City full of reluctance.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
