Although Goguryeo was a small country, it had three capitals: the Inner City, Han City, and Peking City!
Among them, the city of Yangzhou was Yang Yi's target this time!
North Korea was the capital of Goguryeo, and it was located in the heart of Goguryeo. If one wanted to reach the capital, they would have to cross the Yalu River that connected to the Yellow Sea. Only by crossing the Yalu River would they be able to enter the heart of Goguryeo!
The Inner Capital of Goguryeo was located right on the Yalu River, and the person in charge of the Inner Capital was Goguryeon's only supreme commander, Goguryeon Great General Eji Wende!
The Goguryeon Great General, Eji Wende, was one of the rare supreme commanders of the Goguryeons. He had once defeated the Sui army during Yang Guang's first expedition to Goguryeo. He had drowned the Sui army, causing only 2,700 survivors out of the 300,000 soldiers. His abilities were evident!
And now, if Yang Yi's 80,000 black-armored cavalry wanted to enter Goguryeo, they would have to pass through the inner city on the Yalu River!
"My lord, I reckon that the method that Cunxiao spoke of to take down the capital of Goguryeo will be difficult!”
"If we can't take down the Goguryeon capital in time, by the time that Goguryeon Great General Eji Wende comes back to his senses and blocks the Yalu River with his army, our logistics will be cut off!”
"Let's plan slowly. Even though the black-armored cavalry are good at fighting, and each of them can fight against ten enemies, it's still a problem to be trapped by an army that has the strength of a country!”
About a hundred kilometers away from Liaodong City, the white-robed ghost general Chen Qingzhi spread out a map of Goguryeo drawn by a scout and pointed at the inner city and the city of Peking.
The map of Goguryeo was only completed after Yang Yi had dispatched countless scouts over the past few days and gone through countless hardships!
When they were in Liaodong City, none of them had expected that one of the three capitals of Goguryeo would be so important!
If Liaodong City was the first line of defense of the Goguryeo capital, then it would be the first line of defense.
In that case, the inner city guarded by the famous Goguryeon general Eulji Munduk would be the second line of defense for Goguryeo!
Moreover, its importance far exceeded that of Liaodong City!
This was because once the inner city was lost, the capital of Goguryeo would be exposed to the enemy!
It was just like the importance between the Great Han's Tiger Cage Pass and the Great Han's capital Luoyang!
Liaodong City could be lost, but the inner city could not!
And it was precisely because of the importance of the inner city that the King of Goguryeo had sent the peerless general Eulji Munduk to personally guard the inner city!
"Since we can't take the capital of Goguryeo directly, then we'll continue to use Ziyun's method and gradually annex the entire Goguryeo!”
When Yang Yi heard this, his intelligent eyes flashed with a bright light as he pointed at the three cities on the map and said!
"Outside of the Yalu River, apart from the most difficult inner city to conquer, we can still attack Blackbone City and the new city!”
"Although the new city's defense is not as strong as the inner city and there are no famous generals, it still has no less than 20,000 soldiers!”
"As for Black Bone City, it is the weakest of the three cities!”
"There are only a few thousand soldiers in the city, and there's a nameless general guarding it. All we need to do is send a major general with ten thousand black-armored cavalry to easily take it down!”
While Yang Yi analyzed the three cities, he looked at Li Cunxiao and the other two!
"Lord, this general requests to fight!"
"I'm willing to take down the inner city for my lord!"
"Capture the famous Goguryeon general, Eji Wende, and present him to my lord!”
Li Cunxiao, who was wrapped in thick black armor and only had his eyes exposed, was exuding a majestic fighting spirit as he asked Yang Yi to fight!
Ever since Yang Yi led 100,000 black armored cavalry into Yanmen Pass five years ago, Li Cunxiao had not experienced a great battle for a long time!
Just like yesterday's battle at Liaodong City, due to the carelessness of the Liaodong City's garrison general, the south gate was taken down. Li Cunxiao did not do anything at all and took Liaodong City!
This was naturally extremely uncomfortable for the warlike Li Cunxiao!
Hearing how difficult it was to attack the inner city, and that the Goguryeon general, Eji Mundo, was guarding it, his heart was filled with boundless fighting spirit. He wanted to fight the Goguryeon commander, Eji Mundo!
Yang Yi smiled and looked at the calm Chen Qingzhi,"Ziyun, do you have anything to say?"”
"Since my lord already has a plan, why do you need me to say it!”
When Chen Qingzhi heard this, he smiled and said!
"Other than Blackbone City, which one of you will follow me to attack the inner city?”
Yang Yi chuckled when he heard this.
"Since Cunxiao can't wait to go to the inner city, then I'll choose the new city!”
Chen Qingzhi glanced at Li Cunxiao, who was full of fighting spirit, and then smiled slightly.
"Thank you, Brother Ziyun!"
Hearing this, Li Cunxiao could not help but be overjoyed and thanked Chen Qingzhi!
……
P.S. Thank you!
