The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 437

"General, what should we do now? We can't watch our family members being killed by the Tang army, can we? We have to find a way to take back Liaodong City." The deputy general asked Pu Budao.

Even Pu Budao's family members became prisoners of Tang Jun.The deputy general knew without asking, that his family members were not spared either.

Pu Budao frowned and thought for a while, then said: "If the Tang army really sneaked across the Liaohe River, they have already reached Liaodong City. It means that there are not many troops left in the Tang army camp opposite."

"Pass down the general's order and let the whole army prepare overnight. 15 people were dispatched to turn around Liaodong City overnight. It is necessary to take Liaodong City back before the Tang army reacts."

The deputy general was really happy when he heard that Pu Budao had made a decision.After clenching his fists to Pu Budao, he went down to make arrangements.

……

"Father, His Royal Highness King Xian sent someone to send a letter." Zhang Long, Zhang Shigui's eldest son, walked into the Chinese army tent with Li Chengqian's letter.

Zhang Shigui heard that Li Chengqian had a letter to send, so he hurriedly stepped forward to take it and opened it to read.After seeing it, I couldn't help but smile.

And he laughed and said: "His Royal Highness is really extraordinary. In just a few days, he has already occupied Liaodong City."

"Father, why didn't His Royal Highness the Xian Wang go back to the Liaohe River and cooperate with us inside and outside to destroy Pu Budao?" Zhang Long asked Zhang Shigui.

"His Royal Highness King Xian has already made arrangements, and he concluded that within a few days, Pu Budao will withdraw most of the Koguryo army and return to Liaodong City. Our chance has come." Zhang Shigui said.

"That's great, I've been aggrieved for the past few months. If it weren't for the Liaohe River as a natural danger, I would have torn that Pu Budao into pieces." Zhang Long said with a happy face.

"Immediately order people to prepare. I will follow Weiwei to cross the Liao River from Baizhang Cliff tonight. Just wait for Pu Budao to leave the camp. This Liao River bank belongs to our father and son." Zhang Shigui said to Zhang Long.

That night Zhang Shigui took people across the Liao River from Baizhang Cliff.Only craftsmen and some support staff remained in the camp.Pretending to be like they're still in camp.

……

"General, we can reach Liaodong City before dawn. Should we attack the city directly or set up camp outside the city." The deputy general asked Pu Budao.

"Order the whole army to set up camp and get off at the station as soon as possible, and delay the marching time. We will arrive at Liaodong City at midnight tomorrow, and take it down in one fell swoop." Pu Budao said.

After the lieutenant gave a nod, he turned around and made arrangements.But Pu Budao opened his mouth and said to Pu Nan: "Do you have a way to sneak back to Liaodong City?"

Hearing that Pu Budao asked him to go back to Liaodong City, Pu Nan couldn't help shivering.And he opened his mouth and said to Pu Budao: "General, I really dare not go back."

"Now you are the only one who understands the situation in the city, so you must return to Liaodong City. Greet the captured generals in advance and let them attack at midnight tomorrow night."

"When the time comes, we will be able to win Liaodong City by cooperating internally and externally. So even if you have a narrow escape, you have to go this time to Liaodong City." Pu Budao said to Pu Nan.

After hearing this, Pu Nan nodded helplessly, and then said, "Every night, someone transports corpses out of the city. I can try to see if I can take the opportunity to sneak into the corpse transport team."

"Okay, it's up to you whether you can win this battle by surprise. As long as you can take back Liaodong City, your glory and wealth will be indispensable." Pu Budao said to Pu Nan.

"If I successfully enter Liaodong City, how can I get in touch with you, General?" Pu Nan said to Pu Budao after thinking for a while.

"You take this with you, as long as you successfully enter Liaodong City, release it, and then the general will naturally know."

"At that time, the general will only need to start attacking Liaodong City, so that you can fight with the captured generals in the city." Pu Budao said while handing a small cage to Pu Nan.

Pu Nan took the cage and saw that it was a fist-sized eagle inside.Although he didn't understand what the eagle was used for, he still put it in his arms carefully.

Then he said goodbye to Pu Budao and turned to Liaodong City.

……

To say that Pu Nan might have been lucky, as soon as he arrived in Liaodong City, he met the corpse transport team leaving the city.And it happened to be the burial place where he was lurking.

After all, the corpse transportation team was composed of Goguryeo people, so Pu Nan didn't put much effort at all.Just killed a member of the corpse transport team and successfully mixed in.

At this time, Pu Nan's hanging heart finally let go, and he followed the team into Liaodong City smoothly.Finding a quiet place, he released the hawk from the cage.

But what he never expected was that at this moment, the two brothers of Huobao appeared in front of him.And said with a smile: "You are quite righteous, you know how to come back after sneaking out."

This blow scared Pu Nan to death, he turned around and wanted to run away.But how can he be the opponent of the two brothers of the living treasure.

So he was quickly sent to Li Chengqian.When he saw Li Chengqian, he was as frightened as he was sifting through chaff.

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "You have made great contributions to this king this time. How do you think this king should reward you?"

……

"General, Your Highness's golden eagle is here." The captain of the ghost team came to Zhao Tingxuan with a golden eagle in his hand and said.

Zhao Tingxuan hurried forward and took Li Chengqian's letter from the golden eagle's claw.After seeing it, I couldn't help but smile.

He said directly: "Call the captains of the three teams of Canglong, Huoyu, and Huya to the general."

After the captain of the Ghost Squad gave a nod, he turned around and left the Chinese army tent.I went to find the captains of the other three teams.

But Zhao Tingxuan picked up a pen and brushed it up and finished writing a letter.Stuff it into the bamboo tube on the golden eagle's claw again, and then release it into the sky again.

……

At this time, Pu Budao didn't know that he had already started to walk into the trap step by step.Instead, he looked at the eagle on his wrist, showing a ferocious smile on his face.

"Order the whole army to march at top speed after dark. We must arrive at Liaodong City before midnight tonight. Now I have enough to eat and drink." Pu Budao explained to the lieutenant general.

The lieutenant turned around and left after a snort.But Pu Budao stroked the eagle standing on his wrist, and said to himself: "It's all up to you whether you can avenge the second child today."

After Pu Budao finished speaking, he put the eagle into the cage again and hung it directly on his waist.Then he turned around and walked out of the Chinese military tent.
