Hearing that someone suspected him, Luo Yi hurriedly shouted to the back: "Boe them up."

Two strong men wearing Gao Jun's clothes and blood stained on them were escorted by Luo Yi's subordinates, kneeled in front of Yang Yong with a thump, and a flattering smile appeared on their faces: "Sir, I have made meritorious service for my crimes, please forgive me!"

Yang Yong glanced at Luo Yi, and Luo Yi hurriedly said, "General, they are all Gao Baoning's personal soldiers. You can tell after asking them."

It turned out that Luo Yi and others only followed the horse's hoof prints for more than an hour before they met Gao Baoning's two personal soldiers. At this time, Gao Baoning's head was already in his hands. When the two personal soldiers saw Luo Yi and others, they immediately knelt down and surrendered, and told the story. The last five of them were frightened with Gao Baoning, but the three of them were killed by Gao Baoning's counterattack before death, but Gao Baoning was eventually killed by the two of them.

When Luo Yi saw Gao Baoning's head, he was also very happy and did not investigate whether there was any trick. He just went to the scene to check it out and it was basically confirmed that it was Gao Baoning's head, so he brought them back together.

Gao Baoning died so easily, and this expedition can be said to have achieved merit. Although Yang Yong had no good feelings for these two people who were loyal to Dazhou and had awakened, he still could not erase their merits: "Since that is the case, as long as you go to Yingzhou to check Gao Baoning's head is true, your crimes will be forgiven and take them down."

The two of them were rewarded and kowtowed with great gratitude. The two of them got the gold and silver brought by the other three, and they were all determined to return to the Central Plains to enjoy their happiness. Now that they have gotten their wish, they are naturally satisfied.

After looking at the figures of the two people going down, and then looking at Gao Baoning, Yang Yong was secretly alert in his heart and sighed softly: "Put his head and take it back to Yingzhou."

That night, the entire army enjoyed a very sumptuous dinner. Although this was a reward for a large amount of meat, the dinner made by these women was much better than the sergeants who made it themselves. After using the dinner, in order to prevent any sergeants from not observing military discipline after the war, these women were concentrated in the middle and set the scope of activities for them. Neither the sergeants were allowed to step into this circle nor were women allowed to step out of the circle. Once the rules were violated, both men and women would be killed directly by the second offender.

I was speechless all night. I woke up early the next morning. After breakfast, the entire army immediately started to rush on the road. I would encounter grazing Khitans from time to time on the road. The news that the Zhou army destroyed Gao Baoning had spread on the grassland. Seeing this flock of cattle, horses and sheep, the Khitans left far away in awe.

Three days later, the army had already walked halfway. The scout heard that an army of about 10,000 people crossed the Liaohe River and was coming towards the direction of the team. It is now only more than twenty miles away from the army.

Yang Yong sneered. Facing such huge wealth as tens of thousands of good horses and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep, the Goguryeo people could not help but dared to cross the Liao River blatantly.

The reason why Yang Yong wanted to ask for reinforcements from Yingzhou was that he was guarding against Gao Mingli. He was not surprised at all when he heard the scout's reward. I believe Goguryeo was also very angry about Gao Baoning's destruction, and he could not bear the temptation of so many cattle, sheep and horses.

"Where are our reinforcements now?"

Yang Shi replied: "General, the reinforcements are only thirty miles away from us. The general Wei Po's enemy is led by the team, but there are only two thousand people."

"How many enemies are there?"

"The low-ranking job is estimated to be around 7,000 to 8,000."

In just three days, the Goguryeo people could mobilize seven or eight thousand people, which should be the limit of Goguryeo. After joining with reinforcements, the strength of both sides should be one to two. The Goguryeo people have the advantage. However, west of the Liaohe River is the territory of the Khitans. The Goguryeo people would go to the Khitans without saying a word, and the Khitans would react.

Wei Chong asked from the side: "Sir, have you ordered the entire army to speed up and meet with reinforcements?"

Although Goguryeo's men were closer, if they had to move forward with all their might, the Zhou army would only have to walk halfway through the journey and could still meet reinforcements first. However, some livestock might be lost on the road. However, compared with Yang Yong's safety, even the loss of all cattle and sheep was nothing.

Yang Yong shook his head: "No, do you see the hillside in front? I'm sending me an order to go up the mountain and camp for help."

There are rolling hills everywhere on the grassland. Although they are not big, neither high nor steep, there is no problem in garrisoning a team of thousands of people. Horses can barely accommodate so many cattle and sheep, but so many cattle and sheep can only be placed at the foot of the mountain.

"Luo Yi."

"I am in a humble position."

"You go to the Japanese army and find Wutu and tell him that Dazhou gave him the grassland of Gao Baoning. If he wants to swallow this grassland smoothly, he must help Dazhou defeat the Goguryeo people. Otherwise, not only the grassland of Gao Baoning may fall into the hands of the Goguryeo people, but even the Khitan tribes will be oppressed again in the future. Dazhou and Goguryeo, he can only choose one side."

"Yes, I understand."

"Yang Shi."

"I am in a humble position."

"You bring you fifty personal soldiers around you, and allow you to use crossbow arrows to shoot all Goguryeo scouts."

"yes."

Luo Yi only brought two followers and disappeared from the direction of the Japanese company, while Yang Shi led a team of cavalry to the west towards the army of Goguryeo.

Crossing the Liao River, Goguryeo soldiers laughed loudly. Since following Gao Baoning two years ago, Goguryeo dreamed of crossing the Liao River again, but he couldn't find the opportunity. Today it finally came true, and there was a big fat sheep waiting for them to receive it.

Unlike the soldiers who were very happy, this time the commander Wenda could not see a smile on his face. Wenda was only twenty years old and had a handsome face. No one in the Goguryeo army dared to underestimate him. In the past three years of joining the army, dozens of enemy generals died under him. They started as a small soldier and became a general in just three years. Although they had a relationship in the palace, they all depended on their own strength.

The Zhou army had only one thousand people. With the strength of his own three thousand cavalry and five thousand infantry, there was no problem in defeating the Zhou army. What worried Wenda was that he received a very bad news from Princess Pingkang a few days ago, and the second prince fell into the hands of the Zhou people.

Princess Pingkang ordered him to send troops to attack Yingzhou and rescue the second prince, but Wenda dared not act rashly. Yingzhou has five thousand troops, and the city is high and the walls are thick. It is impossible to attack such a city without tens of thousands of troops. Once Yingzhou is attacked, it is likely to cause a war between Goguryeo and the Great Zhou, and Wenda dared not take this risk.

However, he dared not ignore Princess Pingkang's orders. Wenda was born in poverty, and he could only spend his whole life in poverty. However, when he met the princess at the age of twelve, his fate changed. At that time, Princess Pingkang was two years younger than him, but he became close to him. Not only did he give him a lot of money, but he also recommended him to learn martial arts. After his art, Wenda vowed to be loyal to Princess Pingkang in this life. After joining the army, he soon stood out in the army and made many military achievements. The King of Goguryeo also intended to fulfill his and the princess.

Just when Wenda wanted to lead elite troops to sneak into Yingzhou and rescue the second prince in order to repay the princess's kindness, bad news came. Gao Baoning's camp was actually broken by the Zhou army. This was indeed news that it was so bad that it could not be worse. Once Gao Baoning died, Goguryeo would never invade Zhou's territory in his name, and Goguryeo also lost a guide who was deeply familiar with Qi.

Wenda saw the opportunity from this bad news. If he could destroy the troops and horses before the Zhou army returned to Yingzhou, Goguryeo could not only get tens of thousands of good horses and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep in the empty space. It would be better for the Zhou army to dare to rush to rescue. It would be better to fight outside the city than to siege the city. If the army sent by Yingzhou was defeated in the field, maybe Goguryeo could really take out Yingzhou. For this reason, he immediately raised his troops and persuaded the princess to postpone the rescue of the second prince and first seize the Zhou army that defeated Gao Baoning.

Although Wenda received intelligence, the Zhou army was extremely powerful and had broken through Gao Baoning's camp with less than a thousand people. Wenda did not believe it and suspected that the Zhou army was deliberately bragging. He believed that the Zhou army could only break through Gao Baoning's camp with the same troops, and he should have suffered heavy losses. Only more than a thousand remaining troops were left, so there was naturally nothing to worry about dealing with these more than a thousand remaining troops.

By this calculation, Yingzhou now has only more than 2,000 troops. As long as Yingzhou dares to send reinforcements, after he eats it in one fell swoop, Yingzhou will be completely empty.

"Report, General, Yingzhou has sent reinforcements, and now it is less than forty miles away from our army." A scout hurried over.

Wenda hurriedly asked, "Do you know how many people are there?"

"Sir, it's probably no less than two thousand."

"Two thousand!" Wen Da finally smiled on his face. He said that the Zhou army was full of people. As long as the three thousand Zhou army disappeared, what if the city of Yingzhou is high and thick, how can we defend it without anyone?

"Take it again!"

"yes."

Seeing the scouts, Wenda defeated the horse and came to the veiled Princess Pingkang: "Fifth Princess, the Zhou army has been dispatched. After this battle, you can break through the camp and rescue the second prince directly."

Princess Pingkang nodded, with a hint of gentleness in her eyes: "Wenda, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have been confused."

"Everything that is given to the princess is given by the princess. It is the thing that the princess does, but..." Wenda's words stopped.

"Just what?" Princess Pingkang heard that her second brother was saved, and her tone was surprisingly gentle.

"But the princess must not sneak into other countries casually in the future. This move is too risky. Even if the princess thinks of going to the Central Plains to see it in the future, if she directly reveals her identity, the Central Plains officials will not dare to be rude to the princess." Wenda said, and was a little nervous. The princess has always been favored by the king and has always been doing what she wants. I wonder if she can't accept it because of her accusations.

"General Wen, don't worry, as long as you rescue your second brother, I will never run around in the future."

The princess was so reasonable that Wenda was suddenly overjoyed. Just as she was about to speak again, a fast horse in front rushed towards him. One of them bent on the horse's back. From a distance, she could see a feather of arrows inserted on the back of the man, leaving only a short tail trembling with the horse's bumps. The sergeant in front had to dodge in the face of the crazy war horse.

Wenda was shocked and gently urged him to step down the horse and held the reins of the running horse. The galloping horse "Xilulu" screamed several times, but he stopped obediently under Wenda's divine power.

The Goguryeo sergeant who were clearly seen on both sides cheered loudly: "General's divine power!"

Wenda turned the knight over immediately. This person was the scout he sent out to inquire. The tip of the arrow was exposed from the scout's chest, which showed how powerful the archer's archeryman was.

"I'm Wenda, wake up, wake up..."

The scout was already angry and barely opened his eyes: "General, we are............ ten miles away...." After saying this, the scout tilted his head and died.

"Come, cover the body of this warrior."

"Yes." Several soldiers lifted the scout's body and dug a hole next to it.

"Ten miles?" Wenda murmured to himself and turned behind him: "My sons, the Zhou people are just ten miles away. Come up and don't let them run away. Send orders and move forward with all their strength."

"Ho, ho, ho..." The Goguryeo people shouted, 8,000 to 1,000. Perhaps they thought that as long as they arrived in front of them, the Zhou army would flee in panic.

Wenda rode a horse to Princess Pingkang: "Fifth Princess, we will lead the cavalry to the road first, so as not to leave the cattle and sheep and escape, and you will follow the infantry to surrender."

Princess Pingkang was unhappy: "General Wen, I'll go with you."

"Okay." Wen Da didn't say much. His three thousand cavalry could eat more than a thousand troops of the Zhou army. The thing he was most worried about at the moment was that the Zhou army would escape. If the Zhou army left behind cattle and sheep, he would not be able to catch up without infantry. After all, the Zhou army had nearly 10,000 war horses to exchange for cavalry.

The whole ground was shaking slightly, and the three thousand cavalry of Goguryeo followed closely behind Wenda and the fifth princess. The dust stirred up almost submerged its infantry and gradually disappeared in front of them.

The Goguryeo infantry looked at the cavalry that was leaving enviously. Wenda's deputy general raised the sword in his hand: "Sisters, hurry up. As long as you take down the Zhou army, you can all become cavalry."
