A few days ago, Jin En led [-] deserters to the west bank of Liao River after half a day's journey. Fortifications had been built on the opposite side. Various high platforms were convenient for archers to shoot, and rolling logs and thunder stones were prepared on the slopes.

After Jin En arrived, he identified himself and told the rear that there was a large number of pursuers, hoping that the general on the opposite side could help him cross the river.

The generals on Goguryeo's side were members of the Gao clan and were not fools. How could they believe it casually? Jin En had no choice but to go and land elsewhere.

He also said that he would not join them and would directly go to the inner city to plead guilty. Saying this, regardless of the other party's reaction, he took 3 people to the upper reaches to cut wood and build a bridge to prepare to cross the Liao River.

With tens of thousands of people building pontoons, it must have been very fast. It didn't take long to find two pontoons. Just when General Gao was about to stop him, 10,000+ troops of the Tang Army came from the other side and rushed towards Jin En.

Jin En quickly asked people to set up a pontoon bridge and led the people across the river in an emergency. To outsiders, it looked like they were running for their lives. In the end, the people led by Jin En were captured by two to three thousand soldiers who had not had time to cross the river.

The reason why General Gao somewhat believed it was that after Jin En crossed the river, he immediately dismantled the pontoon bridge. Let the Tang army on the opposite side not follow,

Otherwise, the archers who had been preparing would have fired thousands of arrows.

Jin En also kept his promise and led the soldiers to rest two miles away from their camp and prepare to march to the hinterland.

In the evening, Jin En led a few people to the defensive area and found General Gao.

"I've met General Gao." Jin En saluted. After all, the other party was from the clan.

"Have you seen me?" General Gao asked.

"We met once in Domestic City, but I didn't remember that General Gao had such a high position and authority." Jin En flattered him.

General Gao was very happy to hear that he was in a high and powerful position.

"General Jin, I can tell you the specific situation." He was asking why you were defeated. And so fast.

"Ah~~"

Jin En sighed and continued.

"To be fair to General Gao, the Tang army this time had almost 30 troops and 15 siege infantry. They used an incendiary bomb that could burn for a long time, and the black smoke was poisonous.

At some point, he was careless and lost his troops from the beginning. The Tang army took the opportunity to attack the city wall. They were outnumbered and Jin couldn't hold on. He really didn't trust the king.

The Tang army rushed into the city with more than [-] soldiers and horses. Jin had no choice but to withdraw from Wuliluo with the remnants to preserve his strength and continue to serve the king. "

Jin En's words are actually in line with the approach of most generals in Goguryeo, which is to shirk responsibility. After hearing this, General Gao felt extremely contemptuous, but he believed it in his heart.

Said with a smile on his face;

"Victory and defeat are common matters for military officers. General Jin should not blame himself. I believe that the king will not blame General Jin after knowing the number of Tang troops."

"Hey, even if the king wants my life, Kim, it doesn't matter. Kim is loyal to Goguryeo and has no complaints."

"Then I don't know why General Jin is here."

"Jin wants to borrow some food from General Gao so that we can have a full meal before we go on the road." Jin En said a little embarrassed.

General Gao thought for a while and said;

"General Jin, we don't have a lot of food. I can give you rations for 1 people. You can share some. General Jin should know what is going on in the country now."

"Thank you, General Gao."

Jin En brought back some food, and here he also started to bury pots to make rice. In fact, each soldier carried a big cake on his back, which was enough for one meal.

Jin En went to just take a rough look at the opponent's defenses and troop layout.

Soon the Tang army was also cutting down trees to build pontoon bridges, and Goguryeo was also preparing for the attack. General Gao stood on the high hill and looked at the densely packed Tang army opposite, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"General, I just checked carefully and found out that the other party has 15 troops." The deputy general said from the side.

"Well, it seems that this battle is not going to be easy." General Gao nodded.

"General, I think it would be safer to let General Jin's more than 2 troops stay and assist us in our defense," the deputy general continued.

"This..." He hesitated. In fact, he was not very reassured, so he paid attention to Jin En's movements when sending people.

This is a common practice. Those who escape from the battlefield are generally not reused.

At dusk, the Tang army moved, and the three pontoon bridges began to be slowly erected on the river. At this time, someone came to report that Jin En had come to say goodbye.

Seeing that the Tang army was about to cross the river, General Gao made a decision that he would regret for the rest of his life.

"Come here, please bring General Jin here."

Jin En came to Gaogang and said to General Gao,

"Thanks to General Gao for his assistance, Jin is going to lead his army back to the inner city to plead guilty to the king. This farewell may be far away. Jin wishes General Gao a victory and repels the Tang army."

"General Jin, there are 10,000+ Tang troops on the opposite side. I'm afraid it's hard for Gao to win. Why don't General Jin stay here and assist Gao? Gao will send a letter of divorce back to the inner city. Why don't General Jin take the blame here and make meritorious service?" ?" General Gao persuaded.

"This..." Jin En hesitated.

"If General Jin can make a great contribution here and stop the Tang army, Gao will guarantee that General Jin will not be blamed by the king." General Gao said again.

"Well, since General Gao trusts Jin so much, then Jin will not let down the general's trust. I will go back and bring my subordinates here to try to make meritorious service. I don't believe that 10,000 troops can't stop him with [-]+ troops. .”

"it is good."

On the way back, Jin En never imagined that things would turn out so smoothly. It seemed that God was really going to destroy Goguryeo.

After returning home, Jin En briefly told Qibi Heli what had happened. Qibi Heli's first reaction was that it couldn't be a scam.

But then I thought about it and it made sense. Our army on the opposite side was about to cross the river. 10,000+ troops is not a small number.

It is normal for the enemy generals to be unsure. Now that they have the opportunity, they cannot hesitate.

Qibi Heli ordered the equipment to be sorted out and the location of the river embankment to be cleared immediately to ensure that the follow-up troops could successfully cross the Liao River.

It was already getting dark, so this was a good time for a sneak attack. In order to avoid accidentally injuring Qibi, He Li asked everyone to tear off a piece of cloth and tie it on their heads.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to tell the difference between the Goguryeo armors worn by everyone. This also prevents the army from being unable to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy after crossing the river.

Soon Jin En led [-] Tang troops to slowly approach the defensive area. When they were still ten feet away, Qibi Heli roared.

"Kill~~"

"Kill,"

"Kill Kill Kill"

Qibi Heli took the lead and charged towards the opponent's river embankment. General Gao was stunned and could not react for a moment.

Qibi Heli came to the bonfire and took out a flare to light it.

"Chirp~~~~~bang~~~~"

"Chirp~~~~~bang~~~~"

(I just want to say it’s almost done. Who will want to play with us in the future?)
