"Understood." Zhang Banxian smiled sinisterly and happily accepted the mission. She was most interested in doing this kind of immoral thing. As for Tian Ji, he glared at Zhang Banxian unhappily, blaming the Zhang Banxian for coming up with such a rotten idea in her heart. He was not used to doing such wicked things.
That night, Zhang Banxian dragged Tian Xuan and called Gao An and Han Yong over. The two of them surrendered to the Han army and followed the captives to Dian Na Yan Wang City. Zhang Banxian's face was solemn, she stared at them for a while, then said coldly: "Since you have already joined the Han army, you guys will not be willing to be general for the rest of your lives, right?"
"We are willing to serve Lord General! To go through fire and water, and not refuse at all! " Although Gao An and Han Yong had surrendered to the Han army, they did not allow them to lead the troops. To them, since they had already surrendered, Koguchi royal family would not forgive them. They could only follow the Han army.
"You guys are being too harsh, how could I let you die? Lord General is still counting on you to accomplish a great deed." Zhang Banxian waved her hand and stood up from her seat. She said with a serious face: "Gao An, Han Yong, listen up!"
"This lowly general is here!" Hearing Zhang Banxian's words, Gao An and the others became excited, they had a premonition that the chance to earn merits was here, as long as they could contribute greatly to Lord General, Lord General would definitely not lose to them, the two of them stepped forward full of energy and cupped their fists as they replied.
"Command Gao An to be the commander of the pawn platoon and lead over a hundred thousand soldiers to attack the Wei Na Yan Cheng. Order Han Yong to be the commander of the pawn platoon, leading more than sixty thousand Tianjin River soldiers to attack the internal city. " The Zhang Banxian ordered loudly.
"Yes sir!" Gao An and Han Yong did not hesitate and happily accepted the mission from the hands of the Zhang Banxian. Although they knew that the Wei Na Yan Cheng and the inner city were not easy to attack, they had no way out. They knew very well that they could only win the trust of the Chinese army if they could take down the Imperial City.
"Masters, let me tell you the truth, it's not that we are unable to defeat the Imperial City, it's just a chance for you to earn merits." Zhang Banxian smiled lightly, and said with confidence: "I will give you one month's time, you guys can attack slowly. If you can't break through, you just have to watch the other armies attack the city. "
Zhang Banxian's words immediately caused Gao An to recall the terrifying memories of how the walls of the Linjiang Pass flew into the sky. He hurriedly took a step forward and bowed towards the Zhang Banxian, and said solemnly: "Don't worry Military Advisor, we, the East River pawn platoon, promise to attack the Wei Na Yan Cheng within a month."
Han Yong did not know about the power of the thunderbolt which had exploded outwards. He thought that Tian Yu was going to attack Shouliushan again to let them attract the attention of the city in the country and then launch a surprise attack from elsewhere to take down the city in one fell swoop. Thinking about it here, his mood immediately became a lot better, and he walked forward and said: "Military Advisor, don't worry, our Tianjin River's army has guaranteed to attack our own cities.
After accepting the mission from the Zhang Banxian, Gao An immediately called for his few centurion s to discuss how to attack them. Although they had surrendered, in order to stabilize the situation, Yang Lin ordered the centurion and the others to help manage the East River captives.
These centurion were all raised by Gao An himself, and could be said to be his trusted aides. When Gao An told the six centurion s about his orders, everyone couldn't help but hesitate a little. Although they had surrendered, it was still hard for everyone to accept having them attack Gaoguanli.
"Don't think too much into it, we are now from the East River County, the Darky Court's East River County, and not some Gaoguellian." Gao An knew that they were hesitating, and wanted to dispel their concerns from the bottom of their hearts: "Actually, among us, there are Pitiful Moslems, oriental person, Morvo people, and even Liaodong people, Xuan Tu people, Yue Lang people, in the end, we are all Chinese. If we join the Han army now, we will recognize our ancestors and attack the Dian Na Yan Wang City to pacify the rebellion. "
"Lord Commander is right, we are now Chinese." A centurion called Li Er stood up, and cupped his fists towards everyone as he said: "According to the elders, our ancestors were originally from there, so we are Chinese. If we were not Chinese, would the Lord General keep us? They were helping each other, but managed to kill all of fresh inferior. "
Ever since Yang Lin captured these people, he had the generals in charge of them publicize that they were Chinese, and that their ancestors were actually Chinese. There were no Gaoguellian in this world, they were just Chinese people forcibly captured by the Koguchi royal family.
Actually, these people did not have any sense of national identity, they were not too different from the Han Chinese, and they had always treated the Darky Court as a country of the heavens. And when the Lord General declared them brothers, they subconsciously treated themselves as Chinese.
More importantly, the huge explosion that occurred in the Linjiang Pass had completely destroyed all of the defenses in these people's hearts. They would never forget the fireworks and the thunderous thunder for the rest of their lives. If even the gods were to help the Darky Court, then what reason could they have to not submit!
"We have now joined the Han army and are following orders to attack the Wei Na Yan Cheng." The other centurion called Cui Yuan frowned and voiced out everyone's worries. It's just that the Wei Na Yan Cheng is so dangerous, and the ones guarding the city are thirty thousand Janissary Guard s, that's the elite army of the Gaoguanli, if we want to attack, how many of our brothers will have to die! "
"That's what I'm worried about." Gao An waved his hands at everyone, his expression grave as he said, "If we were to forcefully attack Dian Na Yan Wang City, our casualties would be severe, and we might not even make it out alive. That's why I want you all to think of a way to take down the Dian Na Yan Wang City with the least amount of casualties. "
"Lord Commander, since even the God of Heaven was willing to help the Han army, why not ask the God of Heaven for help again by destroying the Dian Na Yan Wang City?" One of the centurion who was called Gao Xuan suddenly remembered the earth-shattering explosion and spoke with a pious expression.
"What rubbish!" If there is a God of Heaven, what do we have to do? The God of Heaven was not the personal power of the Lord General, he came and went as he pleased? Unless absolutely necessary, he will not easily show himself. " Gao An glared at Gao Xuan and said unhappily: "However, Military Advisor has already said that we are only given a month's time. If we cannot break through, the other large teams will attack."
"One month?" Cui Yuan stood up and walked a few steps, his eyes suddenly lit up, his face revealed a pleased smile, he turned his head and said to Gao An: "Lord Commander, I understand what you mean."
"What do you mean?" Gao An was confused, although he had some martial arts skills, he did not like to think. Regarding the Zhang Banxian's arrangements, he did not feel that anything was amiss.
"Although there are some people from the Han Army, such as Le Lang, Morvo and Dong Su He, they should try their best to finish the battle quickly. But why give us a month? " Cui Yuan smiled, then said mysteriously: "The Military Advisor's arrangement is not for us to take over the Wei Na Yan Cheng, but for us to attack the city and bring the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince back from the north and west to gather and kill them."
"Makes sense. Makes sense." Gao An immediately nodded his head and said excitedly: "Currently, Third Prince, Fifth Prince and Han Army are at a stalemate and are unable to break it. But if the Imperial City was in danger, no matter if they were here to save him or to retreat, they would still fall into her trap. The Lord General's several hundred thousand cavalrymen will pounce on them, the two princes will definitely be killed. "
"Lord Commander is right." Cui Cheng returned to his seat and said indifferently, "When the Lord General annihilates the two princes, he will return to attack the Imperial City. At that time, all our efforts will be in vain."
In a short period of time, a few centurion s were stunned there. Just a moment ago, they were still worried about the number of casualties, but now they knew, Lord General did not allow them to attack the city with their lives.
"Lord Commander, I have an idea." At this time, centurion, who had not spoken all this while, stood up. "Didn't Military Advisor order us to attack the city? We can't do this for nothing. Tomorrow, I will sneak into the Wei Na Yan Cheng and find a few generals of the Imperial Guard. Once the two princes are destroyed, let them open the gates. This way, since the Lord General has eliminated two princes, we have also captured the Wei Na Yan Cheng. "
"Good idea." Gao An excitedly struck the table with his arm as he shouted loudly in joy. Others might not know, but he was clear in his heart that Li Ping's uncle was the Gaoguanli's Li Kuan. If he sneaked into the city, he would definitely be able to open the gates.
Although the Han army was suppressing the territory, Dian Na Yan Wang City's hundred years of life were still the same, and did not seem to be too affected. Shops and restaurants were still open for business, and the sound of hawking could still be heard. Even those who were performing on the streets were loudly shouting.
However, the bustling scene could not hide the panic on everyone's faces. Whether they were pedestrians or merchants, they did not have a smile on their faces. Instead, their eyes were looking towards the south, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Everyone knew that if the Han army wanted to attack the city, the only direction was the south gate wall.
The King Gaolong Gaolimu Gaolimu was also very confident. It was just that he closed the two southern gates and two East Gate s who were facing the Korean Army Base Camp, while the other two North Gate s were still open, allowing the citizens to freely enter and exit. It was just that the investigation was very strict, preventing the Han army's exorcism from sneaking into the city.
The ones defending the Dian Na Yan Wang City were the elites of the thirty thousand Gaoguanli s. They did not even mobilize their citizens to go up to the city. Instead, they concentrated their forces on the south gate's wall, with only a few sentries placed on the other three sides. Ever since the Wei Na Yan Cheng was built, no one had ever attacked from three other sides.
In the morning, centurion Li Ping, who was working under Gao An, disguised himself as a gongzi and brought two servants to the North Gate. In fact, Li Ping was the son of a tribe leader in the first place. The King Koguryo abolished the Tribal Alliance, and just like the Darky Court's system of centralization of authority and system of provinces and counties, they abolished the privileges of the tribe leaders, making their Li Family a county magistrate.
Many of his soldiers were his family's tenants, his servants, and some were the people of their county. After the Han Chinese attacked the Gaoguanli, it was a paper order from the King Gaolong Gaolimu Gaolimu that he brought the young and strong to join Gao An's army.
One of the soldiers even helped Li Ping to ride on his horse. With a smile on his face, he flattered the general, "May I ask for Young Noble's name so that we can inform the city gates?"
