An army of a million soldiers attacked.
This made the Goguryeons extremely worried.
After all, Goguryeo was only a small country with less than 400,000 soldiers.
In these ten days, Goguryeo had already sent a hundred thousand soldiers to Liaodong City.
Liaodong City was one of Goguryeo's seed cities, and it was also the city closest to the border of Great Sui.
This was why Goguryeo placed great importance on this matter. After all, Liaodong City already had fifty thousand soldiers stationed there.
Adding on the 100,000 soldiers they had sent over the past ten days, they had a total of 150,000 soldiers.
This was nearly half of Goguryeo's army.
In the next ten days, Liaodong City would send messengers to report the situation every day.
The Goguryeon Imperial Court was well aware of the situation in Liaodong City. In just a dozen days, Liaodong City had already lost sixty thousand soldiers.
The difference in strength made the Goguryeon Imperial Court uneasy.
Although the Goguryeon Imperial Court knew about the internal situation of Great Sui, it was still a matter of time.
Even though they were aware of the internal situation of this army, Goguryeo still sent another two hundred thousand soldiers to reinforce Liaodong City.
This was because Liaodong City needed to face the millions of soldiers of Great Sui.
These two hundred thousand soldiers were led by the Goguryeon Great General, Eji Wende.
In the camp of the Wende Army.
The sun had already set, and night was slowly falling.
Yizhi Wende did not prepare to continue marching, but set up camp.
Then, Yizhi Wende gathered the generals.
In the tent.
"General, this place is only 20 li away from Liaodong City. Why is General setting up camp?”
Just as the generals sat down, a general cupped his hands towards Yizhi Wende and asked.
"Liaodong City has already fallen."
Yizhi Wende glanced at the generals present and said indifferently.
"What?"
"This is impossible!"
"Liaodong City has more than a hundred thousand troops. How can they break through the city?”
"General, how did you know that Liaodong City had fallen?”
"General, if Liaodong City falls, it will be dangerous for us to stay here.”
"General, I believe that the news of Liaodong City being breached should be sent to the king as soon as possible.”
......
Following Yizhi Wende's words, the generals present discussed animatedly.
"Quiet! Let's see what you want! Are you still Goguryeon generals?”
Yizhi Wende did not give the generals time to discuss. Instead, he looked at them and shouted loudly.
After Yizhi Wende's words, the generals instantly quieted down.
"I didn't receive any news of Liaodong City being breached, but I can be sure that Liaodong City has been breached.”
"I had an agreement with General An Hetai that General An Hetai would report the situation in Liaodong City to me every day, but he didn't today.”
"This already shows that Liaodong City has fallen. That's why I didn't continue to march and set up camp here.”
Yizhi Wende said slowly after the generals had quieted down.
As early as when Liaodong City was about to fall, Liaodong City's garrison general, An Hetai, had sent a distress messenger.
This distress letter was for Yizhi Wende.
However, this distress letter was intercepted by the net, and now this distress letter was already in Yang Guang's hands.
But what the net didn't know was that Liaodong City had an agreement with the Goguryeo Imperial Court.
Liaodong City had to report to the Goguryeon Imperial Court every day.
And Ahn Hwa Tae was the most outstanding Goguryeon general.
He would send three or four messengers every day, sometimes seven or eight.
Only one of these messengers was real. Although the other messengers also brought letters, they were all fake.
An Hetai did this because he was afraid that someone would intercept and kill the messenger.
Today, An Hetai had already sent several messengers.
The net didn't kill all of these messengers. It deliberately let two of them go.
Because the Net knew about the agreement between Liaodong City and the Goguryeo Imperial Court.
However, what the Network did not know was that the letters sent today were all fake.
The true messenger, An Hetai, had not even been sent out when Liaodong City was already breached.
Thus, the Goguryeon Imperial Court did not receive the real envelope today. Of course, Eulji Munde did not receive the real envelope either.
This was also the real reason why Yizhi Wende was certain that Liaodong City had been breached.
"General, didn't a messenger from Liaodong City enter the camp today?”A middle-aged general hesitated for a moment before saying.
"They are all fake." Yizhi Wende glanced at the general and said.
Fake?
Yizhi Wende did not explain why it was fake, and the generals present did not continue to ask.
This was because Eji Wende wasn't just a Great General of Goguryeo.
He was also the Prime Minister of Goguryeo!
He possessed great prestige and authority in Goguryeo.
"General, if Liaodong City is lost, we should leave and return to Peking City.”
"General, the news of Liaodong City being breached must be passed on to the king.”
"General, since Liaodong City has been lost, there is no point for us to stay here. Moreover, we will encounter the Great Sui army. I think we should leave the camp and return to Luoyang.”
"General, I think we should send out a large number of scouts around the army, especially in the direction of Liaodong City.”
......
After Yizhi Wende spoke, the generals in the camp spoke one after another.
"I am very clear about the internal situation of Great Sui's million strong army. They will definitely renovate it after they break through Liaodong City.”
"So you don't have to worry about us encountering Great Sui's army.”
"This general has already sent someone to pass on the news to the king. I summoned you here to tell you this news.”
"Of course, this general also has an idea to discuss with you. That is, this general wants to launch a sneak attack on Liaodong City tonight.”
Yizhi Wende swept his gaze across the generals and said when they were all silent.
What was that?
Sneak attack on Liaodong City?
This idea was too bold. None of the generals present had ever thought of it.
However, after thinking about it carefully, all the generals felt that it was feasible.
This was because all the generals knew about the internal situation of the Great Sui army.
The lack of food, the aristocratic families, internal strife, low morale
Even if there were a million of them, Yizhi Wende and the others would still dare to launch a sneak attack.
Moreover, Yizhi Wende and the others knew that even if the sneak attack failed, they could retreat.
The aristocratic families of Great Sui would not attack them.
After gaining the support of the generals, Yizhi Wende laughed loudly and ordered.
"Hahaha, pass down the order. All the battalions will start cooking and recuperate. We will launch a sneak attack on Liaodong City at midnight.”
"Yes, sir!" The generals stood up and cupped their hands in obeisance. Then, they let the deputy general beside them pass on the military order.
And they started the feast in the big tent.
This was an early celebration. They thought that tonight's sneak attack on Liaodong City would definitely succeed.
If the Great Sui army camp was still the same as before, they might have succeeded, but now it was absolutely impossible.
No, they could not reach Liaodong City at all.
This was because the Snow Dragon Cavalry led by Chen Zhibao was not far from them.
