Only then did the other generals remember this, and immediately said: "Prince, the last general is willing to lead the troops from the north gate to support the west gate."
The North City Gate is the closest to the West City Gate, not to mention the East and South. There is a mountain in the middle, and it takes a long detour to reach the other side.
When the others heard the words, they immediately followed suit.
Of course, the second prince couldn't let so many people go, so he ordered General Gao who was the first to ask for orders, and said, "I'll give you 10,000 soldiers and horses, and you must take the west gate from outside the city."
The more Prince Gao said, the more he felt that this idea was good, and said: "Now their city gates are open, and they can directly enter from the outside."
General Gao thought so too, that's why he asked for orders so quickly.
The others turned their heads to look at him, a little envious and jealous, why didn't they seize the opportunity
This can be regarded as a credit.
General Gao went to order troops, and then led his men to the north city gate.
At this time, it was already dawn.
After arriving outside the northern city, Qibi Heli, who started camping and sleeping, was awakened by the sunlight. He got up from the leaves and touched his arm first. He felt that the wound was fine and no more bleeding, so he pressed his arm. There was nothing wrong with the waist, and the wound that had scabbed and healed did not burst open again.
Then he leaned on the tree and waved to Xue Bei, asking, "What's happening at the city gate?"
"There is no movement at all," Xue Bei said, "General, I think their attention is on the west gate. We are all stationed five miles away, and there is no movement at all on their gate."
Qibi Heli pondered, "Is it because we were too quiet that they didn't notice?"
Xue Bei: "...does the general want them to find out?"
Qibi Heli thought for a while and said: "Forget it, wait a little longer, Ashina can definitely stop it, let's eat first, and then rest for a while, if they haven't found it yet, go out and let them find it."
He said regretfully: "It's a pity that we only thought about a quick attack and didn't think about attacking the city. Otherwise, the current North City Gate is very suitable for attacking the city."
Xue Bei didn't speak.
How to attack the city without ladders, trebuchets, and colliders
Qibi Heli waved his hand, "Let everyone have breakfast."
Xue Bei ordered to go down and eat first.
The soldiers took out their dry rations from the cloth bags on their waists, because they knew that there would be a desperate battle ahead, and the main tent was coming soon, so they did not skimp on the dry rations, and ate as long as they could eat.
After breakfast, everyone was still sitting with hands and feet spread out, and the horse was put aside to gnaw on the sparse grass.
Many people took out a handful of beans from the cloth bags on their waists and fed them to the horses. The cavalry cherished their horses, and usually brought some rations with them, as well as some for the horses.
After taking a look, Qibi Heli also stretched out his hand to touch his beloved horse, tore off a cloth bag from his waist, took out a handful of beans for it to eat, and said, "When the main tent arrives, I'll let you have a full meal." .”
The horse snorted at him, one man and one horse were being gentle, when the scouts came to report: "General, their scouts are out of the city."
Qibi Heli couldn't help but sat up straight.
When the army travels, the scouts go first, which is the usual practice.
Scouts always run behind the army.
However, Qibi Heli has been making people pay attention to the situation at the north city gate, so they opened the small gate and released four scouts, and they immediately knew about it.
Qibi Heli took a look at his team. They were resting in the woods by the roadside. Although they avoided the main road, as long as they were not blind and blind, they could be found by passing this road.
Qibi Heli thought for a while and said, "Leave him behind."
The marks are so big, there are quite a few people like him who directly broke the branches and lay on the grass, it is impossible to clean them up.
Moreover, it was only five miles away, and they arrived in a short while, so Qibi Heli immediately decided not to bother.
They didn't come here to set up an ambush, but to stop people leaving the city, so they didn't intend to hide their whereabouts from the beginning.
The scouts led the way and took the four scouts who came on horseback after a short while.
It's not that Goguryeo's scouts are incompetent, but who would have thought that while running on the official road, the enemy army would suddenly run out in front
However, they had been trained in such a situation, and the four of them didn't panic. They turned their horses' heads and went into the woods, wanting to go back through the woods to report the news.
As a result, as soon as they entered the forest, they were directly thrown down by people who jumped from the tree, jumped off the horse, and used it as a back...
The Goguryeo scout felt that all the bones in his body were about to break, so he lifted the person on his body with force, got up and was about to run, but as soon as he raised his head, he was pointed at by three or four spears.
He froze.
His other three companions also stared blankly at the people who surrounded them.
There are at least two or three hundred people here, right
Two fists are hard to beat four hands, not to mention that there are so many more people than them.
The four were brought before Qibi Heli.
Qibi Heli asked them curiously, "Where are you going?"
If the four don't answer, they won't be traitors if they are killed.
Qi Bi He Li didn't ask any further questions, he rubbed his chin and began to ponder, "Could it be that you want to encircle Wei and save Zhao, attack Liaodong City, and force us to pay a return visit?"
Four people: ...
Xue Bei: "... General, they probably want to send troops to the west city gate to capture it from outside."
Forget why they are here
But Qibi He Li said: "The best time is before dawn. Now it's dawn and our reinforcements are coming. They may not be able to take down the west city gate if they go now. It's better to go to Liaodong city and cut off the power of our army directly." back road."
Qibi Heli was startled when he said this, "Isn't that what you plan to do?"
Xue Bei also became uncertain. He stared at the four scouts and saw that their faces were numb and couldn't understand what they meant. He also became a little anxious, and immediately said: "General, you can't let them go out of the city. account."
Even if the Goguryeo soldiers may not be able to defeat their Jin army, it is a sin to frighten the holy car, and they must not take such a risk.
Qi Bi He Li thought so, got on his horse immediately, and shouted: "Form up, let's call for formation."
The soldiers immediately got up and sorted out their clothes and weapons, and then got on their horses.
Already at the North City Gate, General Gao, who was waiting for the scouts to report back, did not expect to see the Jin army instead of the scouts.
Qi Bi He Li asked his personal soldiers to go up and call for battle.
His personal soldier took a sip of water first, cleared his throat, and then rushed forward on his horse. He sank into his dantian, and shouted loudly at the gate of the city: "Grandchildren guarding the city, grandpas are here, hurry up and open them to welcome you!" …”
Hearing this familiar cry, General Gao almost fell off his horse, and asked with a pale face, "Why is the Jin army here?"
The city guard also looked confused, how did he know why the Jin army was here
No, it's normal for the Jin army to be here, aren't they going to attack the city
