Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 731
Wang Ping'an and the other generals were shocked. They looked at the cavalry that was rushing forward, and saw that they were all dressed as Goguryeo soldiers, not Baekje soldiers!

Su Dingfang shouted: "Hey, what's going on, why did we come to Goguryeo? Isn't this big river that Xiongjin River?"

Xue Renyi also shouted: "No wonder you can't see Sibi City, this is Goguryeo!"

Wang Ping'an stomped his feet again and again, and said angrily, "I've been fooled, those Baekje people are too cunning to fool us!"

Everyone recalled the scene of the interrogation that day, everyone complained, they were not fooled by those Baekje people!That day, only one Baekje man said flatteringly that it was right to go east, while the other Baekje people all thought about it before looking west together.At that time, I thought that the flattering Baekje people were loyal to Baekje, but now I understand that only that person really surrendered, and most Baekje people did not betray the country!
Xue Renyi drew out his big knife and shouted: "Come here, bring out those Baekje people and chop them all up!" He turned around and ran to the boat to vent his anger on those Baekje prisoners!
But Wang Pingan shouted: "The archers are ready to shoot down those Goguryeo soldiers!"

For Qingzhou soldiers, there is no difference whether they landed in Baekje or Goguryeo, they all have to fight, and the enemies are the same!

Qingzhou soldiers in several phalanxes by the river took up their bows and arrows one after another, aimed at the coming Goguryeo soldiers, opened their bows and released arrows, thousands of feathered arrows, like locusts all over the sky, shot at the Goguryeo soldiers!
The Goguryeo soldiers who were rushing were obviously not elite troops. Before they could charge forward, they were shot by the rain of arrows, half of the cavalry fell to the ground, and even their horses were shot!
As for the Goguryeo soldiers who were not shot down, half of them raised the reins tightly, slowed down their horses, and did not dare to charge forward; only the last remaining half were still charging bravely, screaming loudly. Go!

Without waiting for Wang Ping'an to issue an order, the captain of the Qingzhou army commanding the battle shouted an order. The second wave of arrow rain from the Qingzhou soldiers immediately shot at the Goguryeo cavalry who were still charging, and another group of Qingzhou soldiers mounted their horses. Outflank, go to the rear of the Goguryeo cavalry!
There were only twenty Goguryeo soldiers who continued to charge, and thousands of Qingzhou soldiers shot at them together. Then these Goguryeo soldiers could only change from Goguryeo cavalry into Goguryeo hedgehogs in the blink of an eye, or dead hedgehogs!

Seeing this, those Goguryeo soldiers who were too timid to charge forward were so frightened that they were so frightened that they uttered a cry, turned around and fled!The Qingzhou soldiers who outflanked the past chased and shot arrows, and shot more than a dozen Goguryeo soldiers off their horses!
Su Dingfang, who was standing on the shore watching the battle, said: "There are still a few Goguryeo soldiers who have escaped. This time is terrible. They will definitely attract a large number of Goguryeo soldiers. We are in danger!"

Wang Pingan narrowed his eyes, looked at the Goguryeo soldiers who escaped, and said in a low voice: "Although we have been fooled, it doesn't matter. It is estimated that Goguryeo and Baekje are not too different, and Goguryeo may be even worse. Not so much. Most of their troops will be stationed in Liaodong, and a small part will go to war with Silla, so there shouldn’t be many left behind troops alone!”

Su Dingfang hummed, and said: "Your Majesty is right. I just don't know where this place belongs to Goguryeo. It would be great if it was Little Chang'an. Let's rush over, maybe we can really enter the city, even if we are driven out immediately. Come out, that can scare them anyway, once the fire is set off, we turn around and run, get on the boat and leave, I guess they won't dare to chase after him!"

Wang Pingan nodded and said, "That's right. The Goguryeo people didn't know our true strength, so they didn't dare to chase after us immediately. Our situation looks dangerous, but it's actually very safe!"

While talking, Xue Renyi came back, covered in blood, with a ferocious face, and shouted: "Those damned Baekje people, I chopped them up one by one, and let them deceive us, they should be killed and not kept! "

Wang Pingan said to him, "Where's the map, do you have it?"

The interpreter next to him who had been regretting hurriedly said: "That map is here!" He took out the map from his sleeve, unfolded it, and said, "If you want to talk about Baekje, Xiaguan doesn't know much about it, but if you want to talk about Goguryeo, then Xiaguan has done a lot of research. The big river in front of me seems to be the Weishui of Goguryeo. If you go upstream, you will be more than 100 miles away, and you will be Xiaochang'an, the capital of Goguryeo!"

The Weishui River in the Sui and Tang Dynasties is the modern Datong River, and Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, was called Little Chang'an by people at that time. Its architectural pattern was completely modeled on the Daxing City in the previous Sui Dynasty. Daxing City was Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty.If you want to attack Little Chang'an, you don't need to look at the map. As long as Chang'an has it, then Little Chang'an has it, but the scale is much smaller!

Wang Pingan looked at the map and said, "More than 100 miles? One hundred and one miles is more than 100 miles, and 190 nine miles is also more than 100 miles, but there is a lot of difference between them. How many miles are there? Tell me the truth!"

The interpreter thought for a while and said, "It's about [-] to [-] miles away. It's on the north bank of the Weishui River. Anyway, if we walk along this big river, we can definitely get there!"

Su Dingfang frowned and said: "Our soldiers disembarked and gathered, rested and recovered their strength. This will be tomorrow, and then we will travel one hundred and forty or fifty miles to attack Xiaochang'an. The chances of winning are not great, almost no chance!"

Although Xue Renyi was reckless, he also nodded and said: "Yes, if we want to raid Little Chang'an, it will be three days later. According to the current situation, it is estimated that the Goguryeo people have already reported the news of our landing to Goguryeo’s small imperial court, when we get to the city, I’m afraid they will have already made preparations!”

Su Dingfang sighed and said, "Don't say that our troops are insufficient. Even if we have enough troops, it may take a month or so to besiege Little Chang'an. All kinds of siege equipment must be sufficient, but now we have nothing!"

The two of them were talking, looking at Wang Pingan together, waiting for Wang Pingan to make up his mind.In fact, Su Dingfang dared to take risks, and was good at winning more with less. Surprise warfare is his best skill, but now he is not a general in charge of the army alone. He is using Qingzhou soldiers. Xue Renyi would not agree, procrastination would be a bad thing!
But Xue Renyi was afraid of being surrounded. He was ordered to go to fight Baekje, not Goguryeo. Go home, I'm so sorry brothers!

Wang Pingan gritted his teeth, looked into the distance, and saw two soldiers from Qingzhou who had been dragged behind their horses, running towards him!With a wave of his hand, Wang Ping'an said, "Even if they know about our army's arrival, they won't be able to get the specific figures immediately, and the reinforcements from all over the country may not arrive at Little Chang'an within a day or two. Since we are here If you want to get credit, you have to stick your head to your trouser belt!"

Su Dingfang said: "If the prince decides to raid Little Chang'an, then the general will say nothing and follow to the death!"

Xue Renyi thought for a while, and knew that if he opposed Wang Ping'an's decision at this time, even if it was nothing now, after returning to Datang, there would be no good fruit for him, and his father might be hurt.He waved the big knife in his hand, and said: "The last general also followed the prince and horse to attack Little Chang'an. At most, he would run away if he couldn't get on the boat. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Come back later, there is nothing to be ashamed of! "

Qingzhou soldiers dragged the two captured Goguryeo alive and threw them in front of Wang Ping'an.Wang Pingan said: "Interpreter, ask them if they know who we are?"

The interpreter immediately asked in Goguryeo: "We are Baekje soldiers, do you know that?"

The two Goguryeo soldiers who were captured did not dare to charge, and fled halfway. They were not very courageous, and they were captured and captured again, and they were afraid.One of them shouted in Central Plains dialect: "Anu's father was from the Sui Dynasty. He came to attack Goguryeo. He married Anu's mother and gave birth to Anu. Anu was from the Sui Dynasty, not from Goguryeo. General Forgive me!"

When he yelled like this, another Goguryeo soldier was shocked and yelled too, but the yell was Goguryeo, but it seemed that he was begging for mercy and wanted to surrender!

Wang Pingan gasped, and said, "Why did you come up with a father from the Sui Dynasty? Interpreter, if they are willing to surrender, let them lead the way and lead us to Little Chang'an!"

But the interpreter lowered his voice and whispered: "My lord, you can't believe the words of these Goguryeo people! Since the Sui Dynasty, they have been capricious, and they surrendered if they couldn't defeat them. Once we accepted their surrender, they turned back in a blink of an eye! In the Sui Dynasty Emperor Yangdi fell into this trick, playing with benevolence and morality, and refused to kill captives, and as a result, more people died in our Central Plains than in Goguryeo, you must never fall into this kind of trick again!"

The Goguryeo soldier who said he had a father from the Sui Dynasty cried and begged, saying that he would never dare to play tricks, and was willing to lead the way for the Tang army, as long as he did not die!
Wang Ping'an thought for a while, and said, "How far is Little Chang'an from here, how to get the closest, how many guards are there in the city, and who are the guards?"

Goguryeo soldiers said: "Little Chang'an is about three hundred miles away from here. It is built in the middle of hills and has 12 guards. The guard is Yuan Gai Suwen!"

The interpreter translated the words into Goguryeo and said it again. The Goguryeo soldier who could not speak the Central Plains dialect replied that Xiaochang'an was 250 miles away from here, built on the riverside, and had 20 guards. Gai Suwen!
The answers of the two of them, there is only one thing that agrees, and that is the guard is Yuan Gai Suwen!
After the two Goguryeo soldiers answered, the Sui Dynasty father was ashen-faced and said nothing, while the Goguryeo soldier who couldn't speak the Central Plains dialect was still begging for mercy!

The interpreter said: "Both of them are lying. As expected by the official, these Goguryeo people, like the Baekje people, like to lie and deceive people, and deceive my army!"

Wang Pingan said, "If it were me, I wouldn't tell the truth!" He waved his hand at Xue Renyi, and Xue Renyi immediately stepped forward and chopped off the two Goguryeo soldiers with a knife!
Su Dingfang looked at Wang Ping'an and said, "My lord, although these two people are not telling the truth, they can draw a conclusion from it, that is, the current Little Chang'an is an empty city!"
