A middle-aged man got off the carriage, spread out his palms, and spoke innocently to the leading soldier who was making fun of him.

"Hmph! Come down! Get checked!"

Upon hearing this, the leading soldier's expression did not soften, but he took a step forward and pulled him down roughly, and at the same time used his big knife to lift the curtain of the carriage.

"Li Kuan, what should we do now? The inspection here is so strict, how can we get our brothers into the city?"

The old demon at the back of the team frowned when he saw the scene in front of him.

There are hundreds of soldiers in the Xianzhen Camp, and the target is not small!

Under this kind of interrogation, some clues are bound to be revealed.

"No hurry, let's go back first."

Seeing the situation outside the city gate, Li Kuan immediately decided to go back and discuss it.

"Li Kuan, why don't we just force our way in this time? Let's see if those defenders can withstand my axe!"

The three of them returned to the soldiers, and the old goblin said, waving his axe.

He had no intention of taking the defenders of Maruto City seriously at all.

"Go ahead! Go ahead! Let's see how you, a few hundred men, can break through a heavy city!*
On the other side, Mo Lizhi Renwu, who was tied up, heard the old goblin's words, a trace of mockery appeared on his face, and he muttered softly.

If these people,
If he really forced his way in, he would be pleasantly surprised!

"Then you just rush over there alone with your axe in hand. We will be waiting for your triumphant return here."

Li Kuan rolled his eyes at him and said with some disgust.

If he wanted to take it by force, he would have sent his soldiers to charge forward long ago. Why would he dawdle here?
"Um...Okay. What are you laughing at? Is your skin itchy again?" The old demon touched his nose and smiled awkwardly, but when he turned around, he found that Mo Lizhi and Renwu not far away had some mockery on their faces. How could he tolerate this? "

He put down the axe, rolled up his sleeves, and walked towards Mo Lizhi Renwu.

"What...what do you want? Don't come over here! Ah..."

Mo Lizhi and Ren Wu only realized at this time that they were still a prisoner at the mercy of others!

He quickly put away the mockery on his face and replaced it with a look of panic.

However, even if he is such an old witch, how could he let go of this opportunity?
A series of screams soon rang out, and they continued to ring out!
"Phew... I'm so tired! Your bones are too hard!"

After a moment, the old goblin put away his fist.

Mo Lizhi Renwu wanted to cry! Why was he so mean? He had to provoke this hot-tempered man!
"Gao Shun! Give the order to the brothers to disguise themselves first, and then split up into small groups, disperse their targets and sneak into the city individually. Be sure to conceal your identities."

Li Kuan looked at Mo Lizhi and Ren Wu who were wailing over there, shook his head, retracted his gaze, and said to Gao Shun who was standing beside him.

This time their goal is too big, and breaking it down into smaller pieces is the best solution.

"Yes!"

Gao Shun did not hesitate and went downstairs to make arrangements immediately.

"Old devil! You will come with me and Gao Shun into the city later. Take the Goguryeo prince with you! Remember to suppress your temper!"

Li Kuan turned his gaze to the old demon again and said with some concern.

"What do you mean, kid? How can I be so careless? How can this prince enter the city after being beaten like this? If he is questioned, he will not be able to hide."

The old demon glared at Li Kuan, and then glanced at Mo Lizhi Renwu who was looking somewhat miserable under him.

"It doesn't matter, I have my own plan."

Quarter of an hour later, at the gate of Marudu City, Li Kuan and his four companions slowly advanced with the team entering the city.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Don't dawdle!"

A soldier impatiently urged the people in front of the team to accept inspection, and even used the big knife at his waist.

Soon, it was the turn of Li Kuan and his four companions.

"Stop! What's wrong with this guy? Take the rag off your head quickly!"

The soldiers saw the leader, Mo Lizhi, who was wrapped tightly, and Ren Wu, raised their weapons with a nervous look on their faces and shouted.

"Hey... Sir, don't be angry. This is one of my brothers! He is seriously ill this time! This time we went to the city to find a famous doctor for treatment. This disease may infect other people, so it is better not to open it!"

Gao Shun did not panic when he saw this. He stepped forward and stood in front of Mo Lizhi and Ren Wu, and put forward a set of words he had prepared long ago.

"Huh? Seriously ill? And will it infect others?"

The leading soldier had some doubt on his face and was hesitating whether to insist and let him take off the rag on his face.

At this moment, Li Kuan, who was standing next to Mo Lizhi Renwu, slapped him in a very subtle way.

Mo Lizhi Renwu only felt his blood surging, and then he couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"This is really bad luck! If you are sick, just die! Don't stay here!"

Seeing this, the soldiers quickly dodged away, fearing that they had really contracted some serious disease. The leader felt that it was unlucky and snorted with disgust.

"Thank you, military sir."

Gao Shun's expression remained unchanged, but he secretly let out a breath.

Upon hearing this, the four of them quickly walked towards the city.

"Asshole! How can you be so casual!"

However, Mo Lizhi Renwu wanted to curse. If the soldiers persisted a little longer, they would find clues and he would have a chance to be rescued!

He secretly memorized the faces of these soldiers, and if he could escape in the future, he would definitely teach them a lesson!
"Wait!"

Suddenly, a voice appeared abruptly and stopped several people.

Gao Shun was a little surprised and thought he was discovered, so he secretly put his hand on the dagger hidden on his body.

When everyone looked closely, they saw a man who looked like a general walking towards them.

"What do you do? What are you doing in the city?"

The general stared at several people, and his gaze finally stopped on Li Kuan.

He always felt that the person in front of him had an indescribable aura and looked extremely extraordinary!
When Mo Lizhi Renwu saw the general coming over, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.

Yes! That's right! Check them quickly! It's best to detain them all! .
"Sir, is there anything wrong? We have come from afar to treat this brother behind me. I heard that there is a miracle doctor in the city who can cure his illness."

Seeing that the other party was just a little confused, Gao Shun calmed down and did not reveal his true identity.

"Going to the city to see a doctor?"

The general frowned upon hearing this and looked at Molizhi Renwu carefully.

He always felt that the person in front of him looked familiar, but he couldn't remember when and where he had seen him.

"Cough cough..." Mo Lizhi Renwu was a little anxious. He cleared his cough a few times at the general, trying to attract his attention.

"court death!"

The old demon cursed inwardly and slapped him hard on the side.

Mo Lizhi held Ren Wu's hand for a moment, and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Hey! This military officer! Don't come near him! He is seriously ill! He might infect you."

When Gao Shun saw the general approaching, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Yes! General! This man is seriously ill! It would be bad if you were infected! It's better not to let such lowly people hang around here any longer!"

At this time, the soldier who was in the lead bent over and said in a flattering tone.

When the general heard this, he walked away with disgust on his face.

“…Who the hell are you? I, Mo Lizhi Renwu, will kill all your clans! Seeing this, Mo Lizhi Renwu stared at the soldier intently. If he was not still in the hands of Li Qiu and his men, he would have ordered his men to skin him alive right now!”

"Go, go! Don't block the way here!"

The soldier had no idea what Mo Lizhi was thinking, and he urged him impatiently.

A moment later, the group of dead people entered Marudu City safely.

"Gao Shun, find a place to stay and gather the brothers as soon as possible."

In an empty corner of Marudu City, Li Kuan took out the black spear that he had hidden under the cart, and then said to Gao Shun.

Goguryeo royal city. After a period of fleeing, Yeon Gaesomun finally arrived outside the Goguryeo royal city with his remnants.

"Report - General Yeon Gaesomun wants to see you!"

In a side hall, the King of Goguryeo was lying on a bench carved with dragons and phoenixes and fell into a deep sleep. The bad news in recent days had made him nervous, but he had not had a good sleep for a long time!
But not long after,

Suddenly, he was awakened by a shout outside the door.

"Huh? He's back?"

The face of the King of Goguryeo was a little gloomy. When Yeon Gaesomun went there, he vowed to defeat Chen Qingzhi's army, but now he was beaten and fled in a panic. How could he have the face to come back?
"Your Majesty! I will apologize to you!"

Yeon Gaesomun, who had always been arrogant and self-righteous, knelt down immediately after entering the hall and apologized to the King of Goguryeo who was sitting above him.

He thought very clearly that the defeat was a fact, and instead of being punished by the King of Goguryeo, it would be better for him to admit his mistake himself.

"...Forget it...get up!"

The expression on the King of Goguryeo's face changed. He had originally prepared a set of words to express his rage, but he couldn't say them out loud.

Although Yeon Gaesomun was defeated this time, what difference does it make?
Could it be that he could be so angry that he ordered people to drag him out and behead him?

During the Great Yan's Eastern Expedition, he had very few talents to use! Those who could rival Yeon Gaesomun were even rarer!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Yeon Gaesomun breathed a sigh of relief. Since he was the King of Goguryeo, it would be best for him not to pursue the matter.

"Do you know that before you came back, my Goguryeo had already lost five cities in a row! My Goguryeo army was defeated! The Great Yan army on the Eastern Expedition was invincible!"

The King of Goguryeo, as if he had aged ten years overnight, sighed and spoke to Yeon Gaesomun below.

"This"

Yeon Gaesomun was silent. He did not gain any advantage from Chen Qingzhi! Such a huge country like Goguryeo had fallen into a comprehensive disadvantage in such a short period of time.

"Tell me, what should I do next..."

The King of Goguryeo looked at the sky outside the palace, and for a moment he could not see clearly what the fate of Goguryeo would be.

".My king! We cannot win in a direct fight...then we will use strategy. I will lead the army again this time! Let's go and meet the Tang army in the middle!"

Yeon Gaesomun pondered for a moment, and his eyes became more determined.

He thought he was more cunning than others! He just didn't believe it!
Since he couldn't fight head-on and gain some advantage, he would win by strategy!

"Oh? Tell me about it..."

The King of Goguryeo raised his head with some anticipation on his face.

"Your Majesty, this time we..."

Yeon Gaesomun approached the King of Goguryeo.
On the other side, Yuchi Laohei, who had captured Xincheng, led his army southward.

His army of fierce warriors has made remarkable achievements and their morale is high!

In just three days, two more cities were captured!
"General Yuchi, which direction should we attack next?"

A general asked Yuchi Laohei, his face full of confidence, obviously he was in high spirits after several recent battles.

The barbarian army that used to clamor outside Yanmen Pass was now powerless to resist before their eyes!
How refreshing this is! How venting this is!
"Your Majesty has his own army leading the sweep over there. Let's go deep into the hinterland so that we can join up with Li Qiu and the others as soon as possible."

Yuchi Laohei didn't think about it for long, it was obvious that he had made up his mind long ago.

In fact, he had learned about the situation in Guonei City from the defeated army of Goguryeo not long ago.

He was relieved to learn that the old goblin was safe and sound.

But at the same time, he was extremely surprised by Li Kuan's bold behavior!

On the other side, the 200,000-strong army led by Guo Shoujing was also singing all the way.

In front of Zhuge Liannu and Ba Niu Crossbow, any tall and solid city wall is like paper, and can be destroyed in the blink of an eye!
With such strength, how could a few cities stop it?
"Master Guo, this city has been conquered!"

A general bowed and asked Guo Shoujing, who was leading the army in front.

"The main army will stay and take over the city! Also, let the vanguard continue to advance! Pursue the victory! Catch all the fleeing defenders in one fell swoop! Don't let any of them go!"

There was no trace of pity in Guo Shoujing's eyes.

Only by destroying Goguryeo can he finally relieve his worries and intimidate all the restless guys around Dayan!
"Yes!"

Half an hour later, the vanguard troops immediately marched towards the next target city.

The female army that Du Ruyan belonged to was actually part of the vanguard force.

It is singing all the way! Unstoppable!

At the same time, Yeon Gaesomun had already gathered an army of over 100,000, and his plan was gradually unfolding.

A conspiracy against Guo Shoujing and his army in the middle of the country is unfolding.

But Guo Shoujing was still immersed in the joy of victory and did not realize the impending danger.
"Have you found out the situation in the city?"

In the tent of the vanguard army, Xin Qiji frowned and asked everyone.

This time they chased the defenders who had fled from Jian'an City all the way to a small town in front of Miaoxiang Mountain, but they did not find a single defender in the city! Only tens of thousands of Goguryeo civilians!
