Datang: At the beginning, Princess Wencheng was robbed

Chapter 118 An official promotion is just around the corner

Three nights later.

Liaoshui.

After crossing the Liaoshui River, the rest will be the boundaries of Goguryeo.

To be honest, when marching at night, Wei Yan was really afraid that Chen Dade would make a wicked guide.

But they have to operate at night.

Because only after passing through the front-line city of Goguryeo and leaving them defenseless, will the next city be numb by them.

For example, if the front line already knows that the Tang army is coming, then once the city behind finds traces of the army around itself, it will definitely think it is the Tang army.

But if there is no warning on the front line, it will be considered that they are marching swagger in the heart of Goguryeo.

The common people of Goguryeo may not be surprised when they see it.

Because they may not even know what these people are here for.

even……

Maybe they will think that this is their own army.

Before departure, Wei Yan also said to everyone:
"Tonight, plus before dawn tomorrow, we will have to run for at least 180 miles. Don't bring things like military flags. They are too conspicuous."

"Report! But the military flag is gone, how will we command the battle next?"

Some flag bearers couldn't help but ask Wei Yan.

"This time, we cannot fight with conventional thinking."

Wei Yan then returned to the other party.

"This time, I would like to call it a special beheading operation."

"If it wasn't for fear of getting you hurt, I wouldn't even want you to wear armor."

"Can……"

Wei Yan: "There is nothing important, you all just listen to me."

Su Dingfang, Chen Dade and others also looked at each other in blank dismay.

Because I have never seen a war like this.

But now Wei Yan is the head of the army, he can do whatever he says.

"Also, at night, before you set off, you must remember to wrap the horse's feet with cloth strips."

Although it was night, with so many military horses passing by, it would definitely cause commotion easily.

Even if they have chosen a relatively far away road.

"clear."

"Also, don't make any noise on the road, keep your mouths shut the whole time, and just go on your way. Don't worry about people you meet on the road, they might not know who we are."

"Yes!"

After explaining the precautions.

When the time came, with Wei Yan's order, "Let's go!" The five thousand fine riders crossed the Liao River.

night.

There was no one in the wilderness outside the city.

This living habit of working at sunrise and resting at sundown also provided Wei Yan with the possibility of running.

And then, until the next morning.

It's just walking in silence.

On the way...

You may pass through some very small villages.

But it's late at night, who cares.

So until the next morning, that is, seven o'clock in the morning, no one was wary of Wei Yan and his group all the way.

It wasn't until Wei Yan finally ran 180 miles, found a forest, and lay in ambush in the forest, that the first day's march was over.

After running for ten consecutive hours, everyone couldn't help being a little excited, and even couldn't sleep.

but……

Next, Wei Yan forced them to rest.

Because marching during the day is too conspicuous.

They must march at night.

Especially now it is actually still in the outer city of Goguryeo.

in this way……

Had a good rest during the day.

On the second night.

The group set off again in the dark.

This time, there is no need to march in such a hurry.

Because the next step is to break through Goguryeo's first line of defense.

Entered within the scope of Goguryeo's [-] mountains.

There are hills and mountains everywhere.

Moreover, cities were often built on mountains.

Originally, its purpose was naturally to be easy to defend but difficult to attack.

However, this also gave Wei Yan a chance to move forward in the dark.

If Goguryeo was on the way and came to a pass like Tongguan and Hanguguan, it would be impossible for Wei Yan not to disturb Goguryeo's soldiers.

However, now they are built on mountains.

On the contrary, it gave Wei Yan the possibility to drive forward unimpeded.

can only say……

This time the march was really exciting.

Every Tang army had a feeling of being a thief at night, sneaking all the way in the dark, and 5000 people soon arrived in the hinterland of Goguryeo.

Next...

Although the schedule can already be adjusted.

On the contrary, Wei Yan felt that it would be better to keep going like this.

March at night.

During the day, find a wood to hide.

It's just that the food is worse.

All the way can only be in dry food.

soon.

With everyone’s insistence.

It's the ninth day.

At this time, 5000 people were less than a hundred miles away from Pyongyang.

And here.

Basically, Pyongyang is within easy reach.

To be honest, even Wei Yan didn't expect it to be so smooth.

However, this also depends on the fact that they have countless mountains and forests as cover along the way.

And it was daytime on the tenth day.

Next, Wei Yan also divided everyone into groups of 200 people, that is, about 25 groups.

Among them, three groups followed Wei Yan, and the remaining 22 groups each came to claim their own goals.

Wei Yan took out a high-definition satellite map of Pyongyang.

If the previous high-definition satellite images are scary enough.

Well, the high-definition satellite image Wei Yan produced this time was even more terrifying.

because……

Even people on the road and donkey carts seem to be able to see this satellite image.

"You all come here!"

Wei Yan gave orders to everyone.

"At midnight tonight, we will launch an attack on Pyongyang. Now, you all come to claim your target."

Everyone looked at the satellite image.

Wei Yan also said to them: "Next, the task of each group of 200 of you is to enter the city to control the nobles and officials in Pyongyang City in an orderly manner once the outer city of Pyongyang City is broken. "

Wei Yan said so.

Then a brigade commander also foolishly said to Wei Yan: "But we don't know where all their nobles live? The city of Pyongyang is still so big, do you look for it from family to family?"

Wei Yan couldn't help but want to knock him on the head, "Isn't it already in this picture! Just in this picture, look whose house is big and luxurious, rush in, the man looks like a small Damn, kill them directly, if the clothes on your body are nice and expensive, temporarily keep them as hostages. In short, the main thing is to control! And it must be controlled.”

"Especially those who look sanctimonious, or look big and round, as long as you catch them, they must be big fat sheep!"

"Forget it! Let me set goals for you."

after that……

Wei Yan assigned goals to each of them.

A total of 22 were found.

In other words, there will be 22 houses of Goguryeo ministers who will suffer.

"As for the remaining three groups, that is, 600 people, follow me to attack their royal city."

Su Dingfang: "But how do we break through the outer city?"

Wei Yan: "Don't worry, I'm here. When the time comes, I will open the city gate for you inside."

Xue Rengui: "Then what happens after it's under control?"

Wei Yan: "You stay in the house for the time being. Moreover, I will send you a signal. Once you see my signal, it means that I have controlled the palace of Goguryeo."

"At that time, if someone brings troops to attack you, tell them that their king is already in my hands."

"Of course, if there is no other way, you can't hold on any longer. Even if you don't see my signal, you can still bluff, saying that I have controlled their king, and let them put down their weapons and surrender immediately."

Pei Xingjian: "What is the signal?"

Wei Yan: "It's a red fire that will shine brightly in the sky. At that time, you can just look up at the sky and you will be able to see it."

"Now, do you understand?"

Xue Rengui: "But will there be patrolling people like the Jinwu Guard in the city?"

Wei Yan: "I can't rule out the possibility."

Li Er: "Then how do you deal with these people?"

Wei Yan: "First, I will help you solve some problems. Second, you can only figure out a solution yourself. It doesn't matter whether you avoid it, or just lure it over and kill it. In short, if you want to avoid a large number of casualties , complete the goals you want to accomplish as quickly as possible, this is the right way."

"With the hostages in hand, we can reduce our own casualties."

"I don't want any brother to be missing when I go back."

"Strive to win with zero casualties."

"We have traveled more than 1000 miles, and we have reached the end of the road. We can't have another accident at this time."

Wei Yan looked at each other seriously.

"Okay! You should carefully familiarize yourself with the location of your target in the city. You don't have to be afraid of being discovered tonight. Make a fire to cook at night, eat a good meal, and then follow me into Pyongyang City and cut down the spring Gai Suwen's head."

"It's just around the corner to become an official and become a noble!"

　The third change, thank you for the 1197 rewards that grew up with you.
