Lord Taishou is not there, although Du Shihui is the Sima of Fanyang County, Wang Junlin has completely delegated power for more than a year, and let Du Ruhui be in charge of civil affairs, and Du Ruhui has gradually established his prestige in Fanyang County.

However, his prestige could not be compared with that of Wang Junlin, and his order to forcibly move the people into the city was incomprehensible to most of the officials, nobles, and common people in the counties. So he has been busy running back and forth in various counties to supervise recently, and it is Liu Ziming who sits in the county government.

Du Ruhui saw Liu Ziming who had already gotten up in the county office and started to work to give official documents, the two sat down, and a child brought two cups of freshly boiled tea, Liu Ziming smiled: "I have been drinking boiling hot water for the past few months, and I am used to it, it was too hot last night, so I couldn't help but drink a cup of deep well water to dispel the heat, but my stomach was not good, and it seems that my living habits have to be changed from now on." ”

"Yes! Once the plague breaks out, there is almost no cure, it is better to be troublesome and cautious than to be careless, but fortunately, we have not found a single case of epidemic in Fanyang County so far, which makes me quite relieved. ”

"This is the credit of Lord Du, when Lord Du ordered everyone in the county to enter the city, close the city gate, and not allow people to enter and exit, I still remember the original complaint, now I think back, if you don't do this, there will definitely be infected people into the city, Fanyang County I don't know how many people will die, this I admire Lord Du, if I do this, there is no such a tough iron fist as you."

Speaking of this, Liu Ziming sighed, this incident made him sincerely admire Du Ruhui.

Du Ruhui smiled, shook his head and said, "I just do things according to the orders of Lord Taishou, and in the final analysis, the measures and regulations of Lord Taishou are very effective." Speaking of which, we are really gods, and we can anticipate everything in advance, which is really unbelievable, and I sometimes almost doubt that Taishou-sama will be unpredictable. ”

Liu Ziming immediately nodded heavily, expressing his deep opinion, and said, "Yes! As soon as Lord Taishou arrived in this Pham Yang County, everything he did was to prepare for what would happen after His Majesty's failed conquest of Goguryeo. To be honest, although I have always disagreed with His Majesty's expedition to Goguryeo, I never thought that our Great Sui would lose. But now the emergence of this epidemic, as well as the recent news from Liaodong, made me wonder if the million-strong army of the Great Sui could defeat Goguryeo. ”

Du Ruhui said with a complicated expression: "If Lord Taishou had long expected the defeat of the Great Sui, there may be traces to follow, after all, His Majesty has long said that he would drive the expedition in person, and Lord Taishou may have judged from His Majesty's personality that His Majesty will seriously affect the command of the generals because of his stubbornness." But this epidemic can be expected in advance, and it is really incredible. ”

Liu Ziming sighed and said, "Don't say it, are there still fewer miracles created by Lord Taishou?" Predicting in advance the appearance of an epidemic in the expeditionary army is nothing. By the way, you came to me early in the morning, is there something wrong? ”

Du Ruhui immediately looked solemn and said, "There is indeed something I want to discuss with you." At the beginning, I ordered the closure of the city for a month, and it will expire in a few days, and I want to extend the closure for another month. ”

Liu Ziming frowned slightly, and said, "Does Master Du think there is still an epidemic?" ”

Du Ruhui nodded, "I received news from Beiping County in Youzhou early this morning that a large number of soldiers fled from Goguryeo, and there were tens of thousands of them in one day, and many of them were infected with the epidemic, and some soldiers said that the Sui army was defeated in Goguryeo. ”

Liu Ziming was taken aback and said in a lost voice: "Is Your Majesty really defeating the Goryeo with a million-strong army?" ”

Du Ruhui smiled bitterly: "Whether it was really defeated as Lord Taishou expected, I don't know yet, but the outbreak of the epidemic and the flight of soldiers in large numbers, it is estimated that the future is not good." ”

At this moment, someone reported at the door: "Two adults, there is news from Liaodong." ”

Du Ruhui hurriedly got up and walked to the outside of the county office, Liu Ziming also followed, only to see a spy under Shen Guo'er standing in front of the steps, he saw Du Ruhui and Liu Ziming coming out, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee and saluted: "The humble position is the spy under the command of Commander Shen, who came all the way south from Liaodong City in Goguryeo, and specially reported the Liaodong war report to the two adults. ”

"What's going on in Liaodong?" Liu Ziming asked urgently.

"Liaodong City was sent by the Taishou General Shan Xiongxin led the team to blow up the city wall with gunpowder, the Sui army finally captured Liaodong City, but sent to chase the Goguryeo fleeing army General Wang Rengong was ambushed by the Goguryeo people, heavy losses, His Majesty beheaded Wang Rengong, forcibly ordered the Nine Route Army to continue to march, but Yu Wenshu led the main force in Sashui defeated, 300,000 troops fled, only more than 10,000 people returned to the camp, and a large number of deserters also appeared in other armies, and the rear people died and suffered heavy casualties due to the epidemic, and the supply of grain and grass could not be supplied, The Emperor has decreed that the class teacher! ”

……

……

In the sixth year of the Great Cause, the First Goryeo War launched by Emperor Yang Guang of the Great Sui Dynasty ended in a tiger-like manner.

When the morale of the army was lost, morale was low, and there was an epidemic in the army, and there were problems in the supply of grain and grass, Yang Guang forcibly ordered nine armies, totaling more than 800,000 people, to cross the Aplu River and march to Pyongyang, the capital of Goryeo.

Yuwenshu led the main force of 300,000, when crossing the Sashui River, because of the food cut-off, and had to withdraw in a hurry, Yuan Taizuo sent cavalry all the way to follow the sneak attack, at the beginning Yuwenshu also dealt with it well, not showing flaws, but unfortunately the Sui army's heart has collapsed, the army was finally defeated, the soldiers escaped, the 300,000 army fled back to only more than 10,000 people, and the Eighth Route Army also hurriedly withdrew after getting the news, which also caused different degrees of rout.

At this time, the epidemic in the army finally broke out completely, and three or four out of ten people died, Yang Guang was extremely angry, and finally had no choice but to detain Yu Wenshu and order the class to end the first Goryeo War.

The war, which took four and a half years to prepare, almost exhausted most of the national strength and killed millions of people, if not counting most of the Annan County occupied by the waterway army led by King Junlin, the prince of Qin'an, and finally only occupied Liaodong City on the east bank of Liaoshui, it ended almost hastily and hastily.

When the 1 million army marched to Goryeo and finally withdrew to Zhuo County, Youzhou, there were only more than 400,000 left, with a loss of more than 600,000 people, and more than 1 million people died of illness.

This is a confused account that is difficult to calculate, how many people died in battle, how many people fled, and how many people died of illness, no one can say, but the outcome is clear, and it cannot be changed by occupying Liaodong City and half of Annan County.

In short, His Majesty the Great Sui Emperor led a million Sui troops to the east to conquer Goryeo, which was a failure, and it was a miserable defeat.
