The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 132 The situation is reversed and the counterattack begins

All of a sudden, Goguryeo's tens of thousands of troops gathered at Wangting Tianlang Mountain.

Immediately afterwards, the leader of the Hu people led the army in person, joined the army with his staff member Hu Long, and led the army to the hinterland of western Liaoning with great momentum.

At this time, although Zhong Yao's mission had been completed, he still chose to stay and help the Hu people.

After all, this plan has a lot to do with it. If these barbarians are vulnerable and something unexpected happens in Liaoxi County, then this plan will come to naught!
Therefore, Zhong Yao believes that the benefits of staying may be greater.

For this, the leader of the Hu people was even more delighted.

Zhao Yun's bravery was obvious to all. With such a great general, wouldn't it be all-encompassing?
It can also be seen from this that this barbarian leader is also a man with hidden ambitions.

…………

Because most of the main force of Goguryeo was transferred to the front line by Yuan Gai Suwen and Liu Yuan to resist the Sui army.

Therefore, today's Liaoxi County is almost empty, entering a state of defenselessness.

Under Zhong Yao's guidance, the leader of the Hu people led the army to win consecutive battles all the way.

Soon, half of Liaoxi County was swept away!

This news also spread like a plague, and quickly spread to Guanzhong where Liu Yuan was stationed.

"What, you said that the barbarians from Mount Tianlang started a rebellion, and now they have swept across western Liaoning?"

In an instant, Liu Yuan, among the Goguryeo sergeants who escaped from western Liaoning by chance, got the news and couldn't help exclaiming in disbelief.

"General, this is absolutely true! They have an army of tens of thousands, while our army's main force is on the front line to resist the Sui army, so the rear is extremely empty."

"If we don't go back to our defense, I'm afraid it will be difficult to protect the west of Liaoning, and our army may also suffer from annihilation!"

For a while, all the generals in the tent heard this information, they all panicked and couldn't help talking.

Hearing this, Liu Yuan fell silent, closed his eyes and meditated.

After a long time, Liu Yuan opened his eyes and said slowly: "Oh, I will understand! It turns out that this is the real purpose of the Sui army."

"Everything I did before was just a blindfold."

Liu Yuan is worthy of being a general who is second only to Goguryeo Yuan Gaisuwen, but after a short time, based on scattered information, he deduced that it was a conspiracy of the Sui army.

It's just that knowing it is one thing, but being able to crack it is another.

"The purpose of the Sui Army? General, what do you say?"

Hearing this, Goguryeo general Hu Ertai was puzzled and asked first.

Immediately, Liu Yuan looked up and said slowly, "Can't you see it?"

"Some time ago, the Sui army went into the mountains to pick wild fruits every day. It was obviously because the road to 'Lulongsai' was difficult, and our army occupied a dangerous position. The Sui army could not pass through, so they went into the mountains to pick wild fruits to serve as military rations."

"The second is to pick wild fruits and replenish the army's rations. In fact, it is to familiarize yourself with the terrain and find favorable terrain to ambush our army."

"The third is that the Sui army used such weird behavior to attract the attention of our army, and the Sui army immediately sent envoys to the rear across the mountains to persuade the Hu people who were attached to our army to rebel."

For a moment, Liu Yuan looked around and came out with a righteous analysis.

"Now the rear of Liaoxi is captured by the rebellious Hu people all the way, and our army is dragged back here by the Sui army. What should we do?"

Afterwards, all the generals in the tent were all ignorant people, talking in a panic.

For a while, General Liu Yuan also fell silent, thinking about how to solve the current unfavorable situation.

After a long time, Liu Yuan was facing the general Hu Ertai, and said slowly: "Hu Ertai, I will have ten thousand soldiers with you, can I stop the Sui army for a month by virtue of the dangerous terrain?"

Because most of Liu Yuan's troops were wiped out by the Yanmen Army in the previous battle.

And after seeing the powerful combat capability of the Yanmen Army.

To be honest, Liu Yuan himself was not sure how long he could stop the Yanmen Army with [-] troops.

Therefore, it is enough for Liu Yuancai to only defend Ertai for a month!

After hearing the military order, Hu Ertai stood up slowly, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, general, everyone is locked up, and everyone is locked up!"

After receiving this solemn assurance, Liu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, Liu Yuan drew out his sword and said vigorously, "Hu Ertai led ten thousand troops to garrison the checkpoint to resist the Sui army."

"The rest of the team will follow this general and attack the rear of Liaoxi together, destroying the rebellious barbarians in one fell swoop."

"promise!"

Hearing the order, all the generals in the tent agreed loudly and roared.

…………

And the news that the Goguryeo Hu people rebelled was not only received by Liu Yuan.

After Zhong Yao persuaded the leader of the Hu people to raise troops, he also ordered someone to pass the news back to the army.

Yanmen Army, Camp
Gao Qi slowly unfolded a letter, and said joyfully, "Generals, Yuan Chang and Zilong have lived up to everyone's expectations and have successfully persuaded the barbarians behind Goguryeo to rebel."

After finishing speaking, Gao Qi also passed on the message.

All the generals in the tent looked excited after taking turns to read it.

All of a sudden, all the generals knew that the turning point of this war and the opportunity to counterattack had arrived.

After some excitement, Gao Qi waved his hand first to stop, stood up and said slowly: "Now that the Hu people have raised their troops, I would speculate that the main force of Goguryeo in the pass should all rush back to put down the rebellion."

"In this case, let's take a rest for a day and get ready to go. We must break through tomorrow!"

"promise!"

For a while, all the generals heard the order of the general attack, and they all agreed with ecstasy.

The battlefield is the best place for a soldier and general to play.

Because Goguryeo occupied a favorable terrain, all the Yanmen generals were powerless and had nowhere to go, and they were aggrieved.

Therefore, after receiving the order of the whole army to attack, how can these generals be unhappy?
After all, killing the enemy in battle means military exploits, and military exploits means rewards and promotions.

Although there is a high chance of dying on the battlefield, the benefits gained from it are also huge.

As the saying goes: 'Seek wealth and wealth in insurance'.

After some joy, Zhang Yun walked out slowly, and also asked a question: "General, since the whole army is attacking, how will the troops be distributed?"

Hearing this, Gao Qi seemed to have made up his mind a long time ago, without any hesitation, he said eloquently: "There is no tentative attack, the whole army presses up and attacks the city together."

Hearing this order, although the generals felt inappropriate, they did not have any doubts.

Because after the main force of Goguryeo left in this battle, the Yanmen Army couldn't think of a nine-to-one force ratio.

With such a military force, it is not inappropriate to attack the Goguryeo army with insufficient numbers and backward weapons and equipment.

…………

Following the rebellion of the Hu people in Goguryeo, the news spread not only to the royal city of Goguryeo, but also to Yuangai Suwen and Zhang Xutuo who were confronting each other on the Liaohe River.

The situation reversed, and the opportunity for the Sui army's counterattack had arrived!
