In the inner city.
In the middle of the night, a steed flew out of the city and headed towards Goguryeo's capital city, Peking.
At the same time, in the inner city, Yizhi Wende looked at the back of the winged cavalry leaving with a complicated expression.
Even Yizhi Wende wasn't confident that he could delay until the Sui army retreated.
He could only say that he would do his best and leave it to fate.
With this thought, Yizhi Wende turned around and left.
Just as Yizhi Wende left, he didn't know that there were already several riders under the cover of the night, charging towards the departing cavalry.
……
"Sou!"
The sound of a sharp arrow piercing through the night could be heard. In the next moment, a black feather arrow hit the cavalryman.
"Big…"
Before the cavalryman died, he wanted to tear the letter in his arms, but before he could do so, a few figures walked over.
He snatched the envelope from her hand.
"As expected, Advisor Jun, this Yizhi Wende really sent a secret letter to the palace.”
One of them looked at the letter in his hand and smiled.
"Let's go. We'll go back and explain to the military counselor.”
"Alright."
A moment later, the corpse of the cavalryman was buried underground, but his clothes were taken away.
This was what Yang Yu had ordered in advance.
……
Liaodong City.
In the emperor's palace.
In the main hall, Sui Emperor Yang Guang sat high up in the main hall.
Yang Yu and a group of Great Sui generals stood below.
A moment later, an urgent voice sounded.
"Your Majesty, General Li requests an audience.”
When Sui Emperor Yang Guang heard this, he glanced at Yang Yu and ordered the person who gave the order.
"Pass!"
"General Li is here!"
In the next moment, the general who had snatched the letter from the Goguryeon cavalryman, General Li, walked into the hall and bowed to Yang Guang.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. I did not disappoint you and successfully captured the person you mentioned.”
As he spoke, he raised an envelope with both hands.
"Minister Yang, bring it over."
When Sui Emperor Yang Guang saw this, he instructed Yang Yu.
"Yes!"
Yang Yu cupped his fists slightly when he heard this.
A moment later, he took the envelope from General Li's hand and handed it to Sui Emperor Yang Guang.
Sui Emperor Yang Guang opened the envelope and saw that there was only one word on it-drag!
Seeing this, Sui Emperor Yang Guang's eyes flashed with confusion as he looked at Yang Yu.
"Minister Yang, what do you mean?"
As he spoke, he handed the paper in the envelope to Yang Yu.
Yang Yu received the letter and smiled after reading it.
"This Yizhi Wende is quite capable to think of such a method.”
"What is it?"
Sui Emperor Yang Guang saw this and asked.
"Yizhi Wende calculated that regardless of whether he leaves the city or not, the loss is already set.”
"Thus, he thought of a plan.”
"Drag it out until Great Sui retreats!"
"Great Sui's million strong army consumes an astronomical amount of rations every day.”
"Great Sui is an expeditionary army, so it is inconvenient to replenish their rations. As long as they delay until Great Sui runs out of rations, Great Sui will definitely retreat.”
Yang Yu muttered.
"What a delay tactic!"
Hearing this, even Sui Emperor Yang Guang couldn't help but praise Yizhi Wende's wisdom.
"However, he didn't expect that I have Minister Yang here, haha.”
After Sui Emperor Yang Guang finished speaking, he glanced at Yang Yu and could not help but laugh.
When Yang Yu heard this, he smiled slightly.
At the same time, when the generals below saw this, they looked at each other. They saw the General of the Right Yi Guard come to protect his son. He took a step forward and said to Yang Guang, the Sui Emperor.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now?”
When Sui Emperor Yang Guang heard this, he smiled slightly.
"Didn't Zhen already hand this matter over to Minister Yang?”
As he spoke, Sui Emperor Yang Guang looked at Yang Yu and smiled.
"Minister Yang, what do you think we should do next?”
Yang Yu pondered for a moment.
"Since Yizhi Wende didn't fall for it, then there's no need to stay in the new city and Blackbone City. Inform the army to take down the new city, Blackbone City, and other cities within three days!”
"In addition, come and protect your son, how much rations do we have left?”
Nalai Hu 'er pondered upon hearing this.
"Commander Yang, the army has about two months of rations left.”
"Two months? It's enough!"
Yang Yu's eyes flashed as he said!
"Since Yizhi Wende sent a secret letter to Wang Cheng to delay, then I won't let him have his way.”
"Men, help me prepare a brush and inkstone!”
"Yes!"
Immediately, a guard brought paper, ink, brush, and inkstone into the hall.
Under the watchful eyes of Sui Emperor Yang Guang, the two Great Yi Guards General Yu Wenshu, and Lai Huer, Yang Yu raised his brush and wrote the word 'save' on a piece of paper used by Yizhi Wende!
The handwriting and traces were exactly the same as Yizhi Wende's.
Even Yizhi Wende thought he wrote it.
Seeing this, everyone present instantly understood!
"High, really high!"
"This child cannot be offended!"
"Minister Yang's plan is brilliant!"
With Sui Emperor Yang Guang as the leader, everyone praised Yang Yu.
Yang Yu smiled faintly when he heard this.
"Your Majesty, although this letter is exactly the same as Yizhi Wende's, this humble subject feels that it is still lacking something.”
As he spoke, Yang Yu took the paper that Yi Zhi Wende wrote and carefully observed it before he suddenly understood.
"I see."
On the back of the paper, the word 'Zhen' appeared faintly.
"This Yizhi Wende is really cunning.”
When the General of the Right Yi Guard saw this, he couldn't help but curse.
"Haha, isn't it Commander Yang who won?”
At the same time, the Left Yiwei General Yu Wenshu looked deeply at Yang Yu, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
Yang Yu didn't care about everyone's praise. After perfectly copying Yizhi Wende's handwriting, he placed the letter back into its original envelope.
Moreover, he sealed it up in the same way as before.
Those who didn't know wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
A moment later, Yang Yu said to Sui Emperor Yang Guang.
"Your Majesty, we are still short of one person to deliver this letter to the capital.”
When Sui Emperor Yang Guang heard this, he said to the generals below.
"Which beloved minister is willing to send the letter to the capital?”
"Your Majesty, I'm willing to go!"
General Li was the first to stand out and bow to Sui Emperor Yang Guang.
"Your Majesty, General Li it is."
When Yang Yu saw this, he said to Sui Emperor Yang Guang.
"As Minister Yang says."
"Yes!"
