After crossing the river, the two men led their army, burning, killing and looting all the way in Longquan Prefecture. After they completed their mission, they left in a hurry, without giving the Longquan Prefecture army any chance to engage in a head-on confrontation.

For a time, the war spread to every state and county under the jurisdiction of Longquan Prefecture, and the entire Longquan Prefecture became a mess in an instant!

The Longquan Prefecture in Beijing was extremely worried about this and could only pass the news back to Yanyun City, hoping that Guo Shoujing could send troops to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

Yanyun City, Daming Palace, Hanyuan Hall.

"Snapped!"

"How ridiculous! We haven't settled accounts with those people yet! And yet they dare to attack the prestige of our Tang Dynasty again! They are simply courting death!"

After listening to the report on the battle in Longquan Prefecture, Guo Shoujing stood up and slammed the handrail with his hand, his eyes filled with anger.

"Master Guo! Goguryeo is so rampant! If we don't send troops to wipe them out, it will be difficult to relieve our hatred!"

Heshen stepped forward and said with some indignation.

"Humph! Since they dare to cross the Yalu River, I will make sure they never return!"

Guo Shoujing snorted coldly, and a puff of foul air came out of his nose.

"Master Guo! Our two trump cards are ready! I am willing to go to Longquan Prefecture and bring the enemy general's head back to the capital!"

Chen Qingzhi stepped forward, clasped his fists and said.

Not long ago, Zhuge Liannu and Ba Niu Crossbow arrived, and equipped the tens of thousands of troops who had been training for some time.

Now there are 5,000 Zhuge Crossbow Troops and 9,800 Niu Crossbow Troops!

If they take action, Yanshou and Huizhen's subordinates will be in trouble!
The chaos in Longquan Prefecture can be resolved in an instant!
"Mu! That is the trump card of our Great Yan! This Eastern Expedition has not yet begun, so it is not the time to use it yet."

Guo Shoujing had already sat on the dragon throne and rejected Chen Qianzhi's proposal.

The role of those two trump cards is self-evident!

Guo Shoujing's idea was to not move, but if he did, he would be unstoppable and conquer the entire Goguryeo in one fell swoop!
"Cheng Yaojin, listen to my orders!"

Guo Shoujing pondered for a moment, and shouted to some old demons in the team of generals who were eager to try.

"The general is here!"

"You will lead an army of 100,000 men to Longquan Prefecture and destroy the arrogance of the ignorant barbarians there!"

"The last general takes command!"

The trump card cannot be used easily, but the Goguryeo army cannot be left alone to cause chaos in Longquan Prefecture. Sending Cheng Yaojin to kill their fighting spirit is the best choice.

"General Chen! You continue to practice those two trump cards! Also, have the Institute of Gewu speed up their production!"

After Guo Shoujing gave orders to Cheng Yaojin, he turned his attention to Chen Qianzhi.

"Yes!"

Chen Qianzhi did not hesitate, but there was a hint of disappointment on his face.

During the actual training, he was once again shocked by the might of Zhuge's crossbow phalanx army!
Thousands of arrows fired!

That scene was like the end of the world!
He is looking forward to it!

I look forward to the effect when these two armies actually appear on the battlefield.

Compared to that, it would become another nightmare for the Goguryeo soldiers after Li Kuan!
Half a day later, Cheng Yaojin arrived at the army camp, and after calling up his men, the 100,000-strong army marched towards Longquan Prefecture in a mighty force.

………………

Yanyun City, Du Mansion.

The Du family of four gathered together in the backyard, a rare occasion.

Xiao Yuanyuan was playing with her pony on one side, while Du Ruyan was dancing with a sword on the other.

Li Kuan, for the rare occasion, played chess with Grandpa Du.

"General!"

Li Kuan seized the opportunity and made a move after the fact to defeat the old man, turning the chess game into a dead end.

"Ah, a junior."

"I'm old and useless! I'm not as good as young people at playing chess."

The old man has lost three games in a row, which makes him sigh that time makes people grow old!
He used to be a fierce general on the battlefield, but now he is so old that he has even regressed in chess.

"Your Highness! You don't even know how to let Grandpa take a step back!"

Du Ruyan, who was dancing with a sword nearby, stopped her movements when she heard Mr. Du's sigh and glanced at Li Kuan with some reproach.

"Forehead"

Li Kuan touched his nose and felt a little wronged.

He has already let the water go, and it's very obvious!
He wanted to lose, but his strength wouldn't allow it!
"Your Majesty, the situation in the east has been somewhat unstable recently. What are your plans? Who knows, the court may need you someday..."

A new game of chess began. The old man made the first move and then spoke to Li Kuan.

"Principal Guo and his men will naturally take care of the outside affairs. I am not needed."

Li Kuan shrugged. No matter how turbulent the situation outside was, it would not affect his staying at home.

Aren’t they just a group of barbarians who sneaked into Longquan Prefecture and caused chaos?
The million strong army of Dayan!

With so many powerful generals, are you still afraid that you can’t deal with them?
It's just a small situation, there's no need for him to do it himself!
"As the emperor of Great Yan, how could the court forget you? Moreover, as a man, you should fight in battle and serve the country! Isn't it right for you to stay in the mansion all day and not go out?"

Although he knew Li Kuan's temper, seeing that he didn't care about these things, the old man couldn't help but scold him with a stern face.

"That's right! That's right! My brother-in-law has been occupying the rocking chair all day and won't leave! I don't think he'll be able to leave later!"

Xiao Yuanyuan, who was teasing the foal at the side, heard the old man's words and started to make a noise.

"What? Sister Yuan, aren't you afraid that I will really go out? Then there will be no one to play with you, and no one to make delicious food for you."

Li Kuan saw Xiao Yuanyuan making a fuss nearby and looked at her with interest.

"Uh, it seems so!
Xiao Yuanyuan bit her chubby little fingers, thought for a while, and then said with sudden realization.

"You! You've been led astray by your brother-in-law!"

Du Ruyan glared at Li Kuan, then rubbed Xiao Yuanyuan's head lovingly.

"Indeed... only my brother-in-law can cook delicious food... he always thinks of something fun."

When Xiao Yuanyuan saw her sister scolding her, she pouted and retorted.

"The Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo is about to begin. You should prepare early to avoid being too hasty."

Du Ruyan was also a general of the Women's Army, so she naturally knew about the Eastern Expedition. At present, the preparations for the Eastern Expedition were almost done. Who knows when, the court or even Li Kuan would wave his hand, and a million strong army would attack Goguryeo.

"Hey! What's there to prepare for just Goguryeo? If they refuse to stop, then we'll uproot them! Let's see how they can get away with it!"

Li Kuan had a look of disdain on his face. He really didn't take Goguryeo seriously.

Facing the behemoth of Dayan, Goguryeo was just a small country and had no room for resistance!

As long as the Great Yan army moves, they will cry!
………………

Three days later, in Longquan Prefecture, near Shangjing.

"Report to the general! We have discovered the Goguryeo army 20 miles outside Shangjing. How should we respond?"

In the tent, a deputy general reported the situation to Cheng Yaojin. "The army will be ready in half a day! We will set out in half a day! Fight to the death for me! Kill these barbarians without a single piece of armor left! Let them remember this lesson!"

The army marched quickly, and the old demon did not rush them to fight the enemy.
Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood! Only when the soldiers below have enough energy, can they fight those ignorant barbarians with unstoppable force!
"Yes!"

The deputy general saluted with his fists and then hurried out.

Twenty miles away, on the other side of Shangjing City.

"General! There is a Tang army twenty miles away! There are a lot of them! About 100,000!"

In the Goguryeo army camp, a scout hurried into the camp where Yanshou and the other man were, and said with some fear.

One hundred thousand Great Yan troops! Twenty thousand more than them!
If a fight really breaks out, they may not gain anything!
"Huh? Is he finally here? I've been waiting for so long! Someone is finally here!"

Upon hearing this, Yanshou, who was at the top, showed no sign of fear. Instead, he licked his lips and looked eager to try.

Rumor has it that the Great Yan army is extremely brave! I wonder how they compare to the Goguryeo and Xieji armies under their command?

If we don't fight a great battle when we come to the territory of Dayan, how can we justify them for coming all the way across the river?

"Have you found out who is the general leading the other side?"

Huizhen on the side also raised her head at this time, looked at the person who came and asked.

"Reply General! It's Cheng Yaojin!"

The man did not hide anything and directly told what he had discovered.

"Huh? It's Cheng Yaojin?"

Hui Zhen frowned slightly when he heard this. He was not unfamiliar with the name Cheng Yaojin.

Although he was not as famous as Chen Qianzhi, nor was he a legendary figure among the armies of various countries like Li Kuan.

But he is also a fierce general of Da Yan! His bold and aggressive fighting style is also a headache for generals from various countries.

With his fighting style, one of the two sides will surely fall! Either you die or I die!
"Yanshou, we have looted enough in Longquan Prefecture. Why don't we just give up and retreat back to Xincheng?"

Huizhen didn't want to fight with Cheng Yaojin, so he glanced at Yanshou who was at the top and made a suggestion.

"Isn't he just a Cheng Yaojin? What's so special about him? Look at how cowardly you look!

Yanshou glanced at Huizhen indifferently, with some disgust in his eyes.

How could Yanshou retreat without a fight? He would at least have to fight Cheng Yaojin for a few moves before he could leave!
"But the other side has more people and more power..."

The land they are standing on now is not the land of Goguryeo.

This is the territory of the Great Yan Dynasty!

It was a safe bet for them to advance alone. If they were surrounded by Da Yan, it would be difficult for them to escape!
"He has 100,000 troops under his command, but we also have 80,000 troops! Why should we be afraid of him? Let's fight first! If we are defeated, we can withdraw!"

Yanshou seemed to have come to his senses a little, but he was unwilling to retreat just like that.

"That's fine... just treat it as a test of the strength of the Great Yan army."

Three hours later, Cheng Yaojin led his army to encounter Yanshou's army.

Cheng Yaojin led the charge, and Yanshou, who had been eager to try, also went into battle himself and confronted Cheng Yaojin from a distance.

"Enemy general, tell me your name! I, your grandfather, will not kill nameless people!"

On his warhorse, Cheng Yaojin waved his big axe and spoke with some disdain to Yanshou who was a few hundred meters away.

"Hmph! What Cheng Yaojin? You will be my dead soul sooner or later. I don't even bother to know your name! Remember! The one who takes your head is Goguryeo Yanshou!"

Yanshou on the opposite side was not willing to be outdone in the face of Cheng Yaojin's ridicule.

"kill!"

The old demon didn't want to waste any more breath. He shouted and pulled the reins in his hand, and the warhorse under his crotch rushed forward like a flash of lightning.

"kill!"

Seeing this, Yanshou on the other side no longer hesitated. He held the spear in his right hand diagonally behind his back and drove his horse to charge towards the old demon.

"Ding!"

The axe blade and the spear tip collided with each other, and a crisp sound came from the collision point.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The weapons of the two men intertwined, and in just two breaths, they had already fought several rounds.

"Get down for your grandpa!"

Cheng Yaojin saw an opportunity, kicked his legs and jumped high from his warhorse, then chopped down fiercely at Yanshou below.

"Humph!"

Yanshou was not afraid, he raised a long spear across his head.

The big axe hit Yanshou's iron spear heavily, leaving a small gap in it!

However, Yanshou took the opportunity to unload the gravity of the old demon's chop to both sides.

"I'll strike you with the axe again!"

Unable to chop downwards, Cheng Yaojin changed to chopping sideways. With great force gathered in his right hand, he held the axe and chopped towards Yanshou's head.

Just when he was about to succeed, at the critical moment, Yanshou had no time to defend himself with the spear in his hand, and he could only turn sideways to dodge his attack.

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

The two men fought relentlessly and evenly matched!
In the blink of an eye, dozens of rounds of fighting had already passed, but no one had gained any advantage.

"Hmph! I'm tired today! Go back and rest for a while, then I'll deal with you later!"

After a while, the old demon saw that he could do nothing to Yanshou on the opposite side, so he simply decided not to waste time with him here.

He took a step back, mounted his horse, and headed towards the army behind him.

"Humph! I just didn't get enough rest yesterday! We'll fight again next time!"

Yanshou knew that he could not cause any harm to Cheng Yaojin, so he did not dare to chase him rashly and could only retreat.

Both sides returned to their own camps. Seeing that his side had more people and more power, Cheng Yaojin ordered his army to crush them.

The difference of 20,000 is indeed not small!
When the armies collided, this advantage was immediately demonstrated.

Even though the army under Yanshou and the other man had been living in the harsh environment of northern Goguryeo for a long time, their combat effectiveness was extremely strong!

But they couldn't hold on because the old demon had more people on his side!
After a round of collision, three thousand soldiers fell on the side of Dayan, and five thousand corpses were left on the side of Goguryeo!
Half a day later, at the Goguryeo royal city.

"Asshole! Damn Yeonsu! Damn Huizhen, how dare you act rashly! Do you take me, the King of Goguryeo, seriously?"

Inside the palace, the King of Goguryeo looked a little gloomy after listening to the report from his subordinates.

His teeth were chattering.
