The capital of Qi is Yingqiu.

Qi Xiaobai sat on the throne: "I heard that Zhou Baotong and Zhang Zhen have taken the initiative to attack Goguryeo?" ”

Zhang Tianshang stood up: "Yes, General Zhou and Gouzi have 200,000 foreign troops in their hands and take the initiative to attack Goguryeo!" ”

Originally, Zhang Tianshang was in charge of the economy and trade, but because his son was in Baekje, he had to pay attention to the affairs of that place, and when he heard that his son took the initiative to attack Goguryeo, he immediately called the generals of his faction and held a small meeting to analyze how much victory Zhou Baotong's army had.

"How's the battle going?" Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and asked.

Qi Xiaobai didn't pay too much attention to the affairs of Baekje and Silla, after all, there were not many Qi people in the army, they were all aliens, and their territory did not border with Qi State, and Dongyi Island Country and Baekje and Silla all faced each other across the sea.

"According to the intelligence, General Zhou and Governor Zhang seized the opportunity to attack when the Xiongnu invaded the three kingdoms of Donghu, Bohai and Goguryeo, so they captured 20 cities of Goguryeo within ten days!" An official of the Qi State stood up and said to Qi Xiaobai.

Qi Xiaobai nodded after hearing this: "This is not bad, twenty cities in a row!" ”

Zhang Tianshang looked at Qi Xiaobai: "The minister hopes that the king will invite Meng Weijun to go out of the Shanhaiguan to attack Goguryeo, and attack from the front and back, he will definitely defeat Goguryeo and expand the territory for my Qi country!" ”

Zhang Tianshang analyzed with others, once the threat of the Xiongnu was lifted and the Goguryeo army came back to help, Baotong's army would be in danger this week.

After all, Zhou Baotong is behind the sea, and the logistics rely on the granaries of Silla and Baekje, plus the materials transported from Dongyi Island.

This material is more than enough to help Zhou Baotong defend them, but a long-term offensive is not good, unless the core city of Goguryeo is captured 'Seoul'!

The capture of Goguryeo Seoul is equivalent to controlling the entire south of Goguryeo, and with the materials of the south, you can confront the south of Goguryeo.

Even if they are defeated, there is no problem, they can attack for a long time, if they can't capture Seoul, once the Goguryeo army comes back to help, they sit on Seoul, and attack the Zhou Bao Scout Army based on Seoul, Zhou Po Tong can still fight for a short time, but he is powerless for a long time, so he can only retreat, Silla, Baekje.

At that time, Goguryeo attacked again, and it was a strong threat to Silla and Baekje.

Moreover, according to the analysis of those generals, if Goguryeo was determined to capture Baekje and Silla, Baekje and Silla would not be able to hold it at all.

At that time, it was able to hold on because the people of Baekje and Silla did not want to be ruled by Goguryeo, and they had a deep homeland spirit.

But now that Goguryeo and Baekje are already Qi's overseas colonies, for them, they will not have the same motivation as they did back then, after all, everyone rules the same.

In addition, the power of the two places is relatively different, and once the opponent's iron heart is about to be destroyed, it is basically impossible to hold it.

Of course, there are many accidents in the war, and this can only be prayed for accidents, unless there is an accident, Goguryeo retreats.

Therefore, Zhang Tianshang hoped that Qi Xiaobai would be stunned, and Qi would correct Meng Weijun to go out of the customs to deal with Goguryeo, and help Zhou Baotong and them contain the power of the north, so that Zhou Baotong and the threat they faced would be smaller.

Because the biggest threat to Goguryeo was the Xiongnu, the garrison in the south of Goguryeo was very small, and a large number of troops were in the south.

The army in the south prevented Donghu and the Xiongnu, but now that the Xiongnu were strong, Goguryeo was now uniting Donghu against the Xiongnu.

Now the Xiongnu are advancing eastward, and the army of Goguryeo and Donghu and the three kingdoms of Bohai are united to confront the Xiongnu in Madu.

It was also at this time that Zhou Baotong took the opportunity to launch an invasion of Goguryeo, because the main forces of Goguryeo were in Madu, and they were still confronting the Xiongnu, so they could not return to help at all, and the remaining Southern Goguryeo Army had few soldiers.

However, Goguryeo still dispatched a team of about 100,000 people to fight against Zhou Baotong, but it was a miscellaneous army, and the total number of Goguryeo Southern Army left in Seoul reached 200,000.

Goguryeo's general, Jin Muren, led the 200,000 troops to besiege Daejeon, and Zhou Baotong was also in Daejeon, preparing for the next attack.

Zhang Zhen did not follow Zhou Baotong on the expedition, but stayed in Baekje, preparing logistics and food and grass for Zhou Baotong, so that Zhou Baotong's army could not run out of food.

Zhou Baotong fought and recruited troops, and when he arrived in Datian, his army had expanded to 400,000 people, of course, these 400,000 people had a lot of water, but Zhou Baotong created a professional army of 100,000 people.

Of course, this is also the support of the merchants, without the financial support of the merchants, it is impossible to equip high-level equipment, so that Zhou Baotong can create a professional army of 100,000 people.

"Let Meng Weijun attack Goguryeo?" Qi Xiaobai looked at Zhang Tianshang?

"Yes, the main force of Goguryeo is in Madu, as long as you get out of Shanhaiguan, rush into Changbai Mountain with cavalry troops, and directly take the capital of Goguryeo 'Pyongyang City' and destroy Goguryeo!" Zhang Tianshang said to Qi Xiaobai.

Zhang Tianshang and the generals analyzed that as long as Meng Weijun sent troops, sent the Northern Hebei Army, rushed from Changbai Mountain overnight to attack Pyongyang City, took Pyongyang City, and attacked Zhou Baotong in the north and south for a month at most, they could destroy Goguryeo, and it would be too late for Goguryeo to come back by that time.

Zhang Tianshang did not know that because of the domestic crisis, the king of Goguryeo, 'Gozang', asked the main force of Madu to return, and it was expected to arrive in Pyongyang in a month.

When they arrived in Pyongyang, they took a break and went directly to Daejeon, where Gao Zangjue's army could destroy Zhou Baotong's army.

At this time, Tian Dan stood up: "If we capture Goguryeo, there will be no threat to our north!" ”

Qi Xiaobai looked at Tian Dan and asked, "How do you say this?" Destroy Goguryeo, and Donghu and Bohai, right? ”

"Your Majesty, now Bohai and Donghu, the biggest threat is the Xiongnu, as long as we destroy Goguryeo, they will definitely find us to unite against the Xiongnu!" Tian Dan looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Now that Tian Danjue's Qi State has annexed Goguryeo, they will not use force against Qi Xiaobai, but will draw Qi Xiaobai to confront the Xiongnu, and they will seriously threaten the Xiongnu from the west.

After all, it is impossible for them to offend the Qi State, fighting the Qi State while fighting the Xiongnu, once these two forces are united, how can they still exist?

After hearing this, Qi Xiaobai nodded: "Since this is the case, pass on my order and let Meng Weijun Qi go out to Goguryeo!" ”

As a monarch, Qi Xiaobai also has the spirit of expanding the territory, after capturing Goguryeo, the territory of Qi has doubled, and its national strength has also been greatly strengthened, and there is no need to worry about causing the hostility of the princes of the Central Plains.

Moreover, after the annexation of Goguryeo, Qi also solved a hidden danger in the north, as Tian Dan said, if Goguryeo is solved, Donghu and Bohai will not be embarrassed for Qi Xiaobai. ，
