Southwest of Yuyang County.
This was a remote village, but there was not a single villager in the village. Instead, there was an army stationed here. This army was the army of Goguryeo and Xinluo.
The ones leading the troops were Gao Di and Jin Yuzhen.
Li Shimin had once gathered the Turkic Ashina Secret Service, Goguryeo's Gao Can, and Xinluo's Jin Yuzhen to suppress Du Qi. In the end, Gao Can died, and Ashina Secret Service and Jin Yuzhen escaped.
This time, Goguryeo sent Gao Di. He was from the Goguryeo royal family. As for Xinluo, it was still Jin Yuzhen who led the troops. Because he was experienced, he came.
In a house in the innermost part of the village.
In the mansion.
Gao Di and Jin Yuzhen sat opposite each other.
The two of them had led their troops to lie in ambush here for a period of time, waiting for Xia Xia's army to arrive. It was impossible for them to fight against Xia Xia. However, be it the monarch of Goguryeo or the monarch of Silla, they all knew one thing. If they did not defeat Xia Country now, or rather, if they did not stop Xia Country, they would definitely be attacked in the end. That was because Xia Country was too strong.
Therefore, there was this joint attack.
In fact, Xinluo and Goguryeo were enemies. Goguryeo wanted to annex Xinluo, and Xinluo also wanted to annex Goguryeo. They both wanted to monopolize the Liaodong Peninsula. Because of Xia Xia, the two countries joined forces and abandoned everything to send troops together.
Gao Di said angrily, "General Jin, we've been in this lousy village for almost ten days. After ten days, the food we brought is almost finished. Do you think we should arrange for people to go out and plunder some food? "
"No, no!"
Jin Yuzhen shook his head and said, "General Gao, you have to be clear. Once we go out to plunder food, our whereabouts will be exposed. At that time, it won't be easy to achieve our goal. If we really don't have enough food, we can ask Li Ke for some. He evacuated from Ji County to Yuyang County because he stored food. "
Gao Di snorted and said, "These days are too boring."
Jin Yuzhen said, "Although it's boring, everything we do is for the survival of the country. In this battle, our mission is to attack Xia Xia's camp. When Ma Xia's army arrives and Ma Yuan leads his army to attack Yuyang County, we'll cut off Ma Yuan's escape route and break into his camp. We won't do it for food or money, but for Xia Xia's weapons. "
After a pause, Jin Yuzhen continued, "As long as we seize Xia Xia's weapon, the strength of both our countries will increase. Everything we do is for the greater good. "
Gao Di nodded solemnly.
He was just venting his frustrations.
As for the others, Gao Di would not act rashly for the time being.
Regardless of whether it was Silla or Goguryeo, they all coveted Xia Xia's weapons. That was because such a weapon was simply too powerful. They didn't think that Xia Xia's strength could compete with the Tang dynasty, but in the end, Xia Xia suppressed the Tang dynasty. All of this was because Xia Xia had a special weapon.
"Reporting!"
At this moment, a soldier entered.
The soldier entered the hall and cupped his fists. "General Gao, General Jin, the scouts have sent back news that Xia Xia's army has arrived outside Yuyang County and has set up camp. For the time being, Xia Xia has not sent his troops. Instead, he has chosen to rest and reorganize. "
Gao Di waved his hand and said, "You may leave."
"Yes!"
The soldier turned around and left.
Gao Di looked at Jin Yuzhen and said in a deep voice, "This Ma Yuan is not easy to deal with. He has arrived, but he did not attack immediately. If we attack immediately, we might be able to catch them off guard from the back of their camp. Now that Ma Yuan has set up camp, his camp will definitely be defended. "
Jin Yuzhen said, "If Ma Yuan didn't set up defenses, I might be worried that it's a trap. But Ma Yuan has set up defenses, so there won't be a problem for us to attack. Right now, we just need to wait for news. "
Gao Di said, "What about Li Ke? After we seize the weapons, will we attack Xia Xia's army with Li Ke? "
Jin Yuzhen said, "We'll see."
Gao Di said, "What do you mean?"
Jin Yuzhen said, "If we don't lose too many troops when attacking Ma Yuan's camp, and if Xia Xia's forces and Li Ke's forces are exhausted, then we will attack Xia Xia's army from both sides. If we lose a certain amount of troops when attacking Ma Yuan's camp, and our strength is insufficient, then we will withdraw. In any case, our forces won't be able to stop Xia Xia's army. "
Gao Di gave him a thumbs up and said, "General Jin is smart. Your plan is too appropriate. Let's arrange it like that. "
Jin Yuzhen's lips curled into a smile as he said, "After all, I've fought Xia Xia before and have some experience. We have to be careful and not be careless when fighting Xia Xia here. "
Gao Di said, "That's what I mean."
Jin Yuzhen's gaze fell on Gao Di as he smiled and said, "General Gao, I also have some understanding of Goguryeo. In Goguryeo, Colonel Gao has always been a general. You are also from the royal family, but you have always been suppressed. "
"The reason is very simple. You have the ability, but you are not a direct descendant of the King of Goguryeo, so the King of Goguryeo is wary of you. He has no choice but to use you now. So at this time, in my opinion, you should return to the country and rebel against the King of Goguryeo. "
"You must know that if you succeed this time, you will obtain Xia Xia's secret weapon. With this weapon, it will be easy for you to kill the King of Goguryeo. This is an excellent opportunity for you. "
Jin Yuzhen said, "The King of Goguryeo seems wise, but he is actually muddle-headed. Such a person is not worthy of being a king. Instead of following him, you might as well be independent. That is the best outcome, and it is beneficial to Goguryeo. "
Gao Di's eyes narrowed after hearing this.
Then, he sneered, "Jin Yuzhen, don't say such instigating tricks. Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? Your plan is very simple. You want me to go back and fight with the King after obtaining the weapon. When we fight, you, Silla, can take the opportunity to enter. Such a method is not worth mentioning, and it is even somewhat despicable. How can I fall for such a small trick? "
Jin Yuzhen said, "If you say that, you are slandering a good person. Because I understand Goguryeo, I know General Gao's situation in the country. General Gao, what kind of situation you were in and what kind of situation you are in now? All of this is because you are useful. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let you lead the troops. What I said is true and comes from the bottom of my heart. As for whether you accept my suggestion or not, that is your own business. It has nothing to do with me. I just can't stand it. "
Gao Di snorted. "I'd be a fool to believe you."
As he spoke, Gao Di stood up and walked out. When he reached the door, he paused for a moment and said, "When the news comes, just inform me directly. When the time comes, we will send troops together."
"Got it!"
Jin Yuzhen immediately agreed.
He looked at Gao Di, who left in a hurry, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. He did not care what Gao Di was thinking, because his words were an open and aboveboard scheme, not some underhanded scheme.
As for what Gao Di said, Jin Yuzhen didn't mind at all. In front of benefits, Jin Yuzhen believed that Gao Di wouldn't be able to remain calm. Therefore, Jin Yuzhen was now looking forward to the chaos that would happen when Gao Di returned to the country after obtaining Xia Xia's weapon.
At that time, Silla could take the opportunity to benefit.
This was Silla's opportunity.
