    Meng Chenqi was the vanguard of the army. He led three thousand cavalry as an outpost to explore the way for the army.  However, despite the map guidance, Meng Chenqi still inevitably got lost due to the lack of guides and the lack of local landmarks.

    The Limoshui area looks like it has mountains and water, which is easy to distinguish, but there are endless forests everywhere, which not only makes it impossible to guide the way, but also blocks the line of sight. It is even more difficult to distinguish the direction than on the grassland.

    Meng Chenqi was a little worried. Logically speaking, they had entered the sphere of influence of the Goguryeo people and could easily encounter the Goguryeo patrolling cavalry.  If the enemy discovers the traces first, causing the Goguryeo people to retreat early, then the outcome of this expedition may not be good.

    Meng Chenqi can be regarded as a general who has followed Huang Mingyuan since Fengzhou. If he misses the appointment because he gets lost, he really can't afford to lose this person.

    "However, some things don't go as expected.  On the one hand, Meng Chenqi did not dare to conduct a large-scale search of the Goguryeo camp. On the other hand, because of his lack of understanding of the local area, he still did not find the Goguryeo camp in the end.

    At this time, Meng Chen Qi was anxious in his heart, but he did not dare to show it.

    At night, when the army was temporarily stationed in camp, Meng Chenqi's generals persuaded Meng Chenqi to withdraw temporarily.  Three thousand cavalry can be considered an elite force on the grassland, but in dense jungles, they are easily ambushed by the enemy.  Moreover, Huang Mingzhen ordered Meng Chenqi to turn around the Chinese army every three days, and now the three-day period has arrived.

    Just when Meng Chenqi was hesitant, his subordinates came to report. The soldiers on guard at night discovered that there were flames shooting into the sky in the northeast direction. It was unknown why.

    When Meng Chenqi heard the inquiry, he immediately rushed out of the tent and looked at the northeastern sky. Sure enough, it was all red.

    Meng Chenqi deduced whether the place where the fire broke out was in the direction of the Goguryeo camp.

    But some people don¡¯t think so. If it was really the camp of the Goguryeo people, how could there be such a big fire for no reason.  Everyone believed that this was an accidental fire in the forest and had little to do with the Goguryeo people.

    Meng Chenqi hesitated again and again, and finally decided to go to the place where the fire started to find out.

    Although it may not be big, what if it is?

    The three thousand men and horses quickly got up and headed northeast.  At the same time, Meng Chenqi sent messengers to the Chinese army in the south to report the situation.

    With the guidance of the fire, Meng Chenqi quickly arrived at the outskirts of the Goguryeo camp.

    This huge fire brought disaster to the Goguryeo people.  Jiang Qi didn't expect the fire to be so big. He just wanted to burn a small hay pile and let the people above question the supervisors yesterday.

    At this time, Goguryeo was lacking everything, but there was only one thing that was not lacking, and that was fodder.  All the horses in the camp were killed last winter, so there was no need for fodder, so there were countless fodder piles in the camp to prepare for the winter.

    Although Jiang Qi only wanted to burn a pile of hay, the piles of hay were not far from each other.  The north wind picked up again in the second half of the night, and the fire point originally located on the north side immediately ignited the surrounding hay piles, causing a fire.

    And although the Goguryeo people imitated the Mohe people and lived in caves, the houses in the caves were covered with thick thatch and millet stalks, which were very easy to ignite.

    The fire ignited from the hay pile, and then ignited in all directions along with the strong wind, and soon ravaged the entire camp.

    By the time people in the camp discovered the fire, the fire could no longer be suppressed.

    No one could have predicted that what was originally just an inconspicuous fire would cause such a huge disaster.

    The fire was raging, and countless people living in the caves were directly burned to death or suffocated in the house because the fire came too quickly.

    In the dark night, there were screams everywhere.

    Gao Jianwu was also awakened by the sudden fire. Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, he hurriedly ordered people to put out the fire.  There is a small stream in the valley, which has just half thawed.

    The stream in early spring is freezing cold.  But no one cared about this. Even Gao Jianwu went to carry water to put out the fire.  If the fire burned down the entire camp, they would have nowhere to go.

    There was chaos in the camp, and there was no order.

    Meng Chenqi fought outside the valley, and the scouts who came forward reported that the Goguryeo camp accidentally caught fire for unknown reasons. Now the entire Goguryeo camp was putting out the fire, and there was no defense at all.

    "This is also true. The house is almost burned down, who is in the mood to patrol.

    Meng Chenqi was so happy that he ordered his people to go around the back of the valley and block the other way out of the valley. He personally led his troops and went straight into the valley.

    This day is a day of disaster for the Goguryeo people.

    At this time, it was just dawn, and a hint of fish belly white appeared in the east.

     The Sui army¡¯s cavalry roared in and charged into the valley.  When Meng Chen Qiduo entered the battle formation, he knew very well that he had few soldiers. If he wanted to defeat the enemy, he had to kill the enemy.  So the cavalry under his command were like wild beasts, killing everyone on sight and leaving no one standing.

    Wherever the iron hooves tread, the road is stained red with blood.

    The Goguryeo people who had saved the fire for most of the night were exhausted and unable to resist the swarming Sui cavalry.

    So the Sui army directly cut a way through the crowd.

    Tonight, in order to enhance his prestige in the hearts of ordinary people, Gao Jianwu personally participated in the fire-fighting operation.  By dawn, I was very tired.

    Seeing that the fire was getting smaller and was almost under control, Gao Jianwu returned to the palace to rest.

    Although it is a mud house, because the king lives there, it is a palace.

    Hearing the chaos outside, Gao Jianwu thought the fire was too big and got up angrily.  These people can't even control a fire.

    As soon as Gao Jianwu got up, he called someone to report in a panic: "Your Majesty, the Sui people are here to kill."

    Gao Jianwu was shocked, how could the Sui people come to kill him?  He hurriedly walked out of the palace and saw the scene of massacre by the Sui army outside.

    Gao Jianwu¡¯s palace is located relatively high, so he has a panoramic view of the situation in the valley.

    At this time, nephew Wenbu also came over in a panic. Although he was Wenda's son, he grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth, and his ability was far inferior to that of his father.

    When Gao Jianwu saw Wenbu, he seemed to have gained strength. He grabbed his nephew and asked, "Wenbu, how many people are coming from the Sui Dynasty, can they stop them?"

    Wenbu looked embarrassed.

    Gao Jianwu immediately understood that this was unstoppable.  Looking into the valley from outside the palace, it seems that there are Sui cavalry figures everywhere. With the thousands of Goguryeo soldiers, there is no way they can stop the enemy.

    At this moment, Gao Jianwu saw a group of people moving to the west of the valley, looking like they were running away.

    Gao Jianwu immediately asked: "Which army is escaping from the battle?"

    Wenbu hurriedly said: "Even if Chen Yinglong escorts Mo Lizhi's family members to break out of the encirclement."

    Gao Jianwu immediately scolded angrily: "You thief, Goguryeo has fallen to this point because there are too many people who only care about their family and not the country."

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Gao Jianwu had nothing to do if he was scolded.

    Seeing that there were more and more Sui cavalry, Gao Jianwu was not stupid and immediately ordered a breakout.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
