Chapter 382: Battle of Goryeo
Li Jing was studying the map of Liaodong, and Fang Xuanling was raising grain and grass. Zhang Jian on the front line, the eldest grandson Sun De, and Qi Bi He Li, and other Tang army generals were strong. The entire Datang is like an extremely efficient military machine, which is gradually being activated. Even the Datang, which is far away in the Jiangnan Shipyard, has stepped up construction.
So the indications are that Yi Er does not intend to let potatoes and corn ripen in the land of Goryeo. Datang's army will crush the past with a thunderous force. Crush the stubborn Goryeo into powder. On the Liaodong and Goryeo Peninsulas, the Tang Dynasty already had two allies. Silla and Baekje!
Goryeo had only one symbolic ally, and that was the Wa Kingdom. It is also a poor country, and how much support the Wa Kingdom can provide to Goryeo, you can know it if you think about it with your ass.
Yuangai Suying began to hit a wall in Chang'an, and many people accepted her gifts. But they didn't want to say right, and even some people didn't even have the respect for the envoys between the court.
In the city of Chang'an, Yuangai Suying encountered more and more hostility and insults. A bastard like Liu Hongji actually openly invited the Goryeo envoy to live in his home, so that he could enjoy the friendship of the landlord.
The three-year-old dolls in Chang'an City all know what kind of idea the old pervert is playing.
Yuangai Suying also felt more and more that the war machine of Datang was speeding up. When Qingming came, there was great news from the Western Regions. In Broken Leaf City, Hou Junji defeated the Turkic and Zhaowu nine surnames, Xue Yantuo, and Tuyuhun coalition forces. More than 50,000 allied troops were killed and nearly 100,000 people were captured.
The western frontier was no longer able to threaten the existence of the Tang Dynasty, and the empire's attention once again shifted to the northeast. Shenzhou Jiuding, the only thing left out now is Liaodong. As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he has the obligation to make the territory of the Tang Dynasty perfect.
When the sun began to heat up, Li Er announced the use of troops against Goryeo. Yuangai Suying asked to see His Majesty the Tang Emperor three times in a row, but Li Er refused without hesitation. Now Li Er is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, not a pervert.
Yuangai Suying did not die in front of the Taiji Palace, but stayed quietly in the post house. In fact, she can't get out, and now a mouse runs out of the inn, and she has to nod from the Baiqi Division.
After several years of construction, the railway has gone north from Zhuozhou all the way through Youzhou to Pingzhou. It is only two or three hundred miles away from Liaoshui!
In the past, such a large national mobilization did not take a year and a half to think about it. But now that there is a railway, the army of the Tang Dynasty can quickly assemble to Liaodong through the railway. The speed of the assembly even surprised Li Er a little. However, in just over 20 days, more than 100,000 elite Guanzhong soldiers arrived at Pingzhou by rail. You must know that this place is only two or three hundred miles away from Liaoshui.
As the armies set out, an even more shocking news came from the inner court. His Majesty the Emperor will go on a personal expedition!
It's one thing to send a general to a distant place to expand the territory, and it's relatively rare for His Majesty the Emperor to personally take a large team of people to PK with others. Even, Yun Hao felt that Li Er was full of food.
The Tang Empire has reached the level of affluence and well-off, and it is no longer necessary for His Majesty the Emperor to personally go to the battlefield to cut people. But Li Er is an emperor who dares to toss, is willing to toss, and regards tossing as his own responsibility. In his opinion, not taking the imperial expedition was not enough to show the Empire's determination to conquer Goryeo.
Yun Hao really wants to stay at home and let everyone forget about himself and take his son with him every day. Take good care of your wife and raise some money to spend on your own home. This is what life is all about, who wants to be in that ghost place of Goryeo to fight for life and death.
There is no way, His Majesty the Emperor wants to drive the expedition in person. A powerful minister like the Duke of Chu naturally has to follow around, and Yun Hao doesn't know when the Yun family has also become a powerful family. Hasn't that word always been used to describe the eldest grandson Wuji?
There is no way, if the emperor wants to go crazy, Yun Hao will accompany him to go crazy once anyway. Soon Yun Hao became the general of Zuo Wuwei, and Zuo Wuwei, who commanded all firearms, became the pro-army of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Yun Hao felt that Zuo Wuwei was better off as a fire support force for the army, rather than Li Er's pro-army. But Li Er's decision cannot be changed, and no one dares to change it.
So Zuo Wuwei became the emperor's personal army, and followed the emperor's majesty to Hebei by train.
Yun Hao didn't follow the train, and it was a matter of one sentence that he wanted to arrange a special train in his position. The current railway system is far less complicated than that of later generations, but the officials of the railway system are almost all Yunhao's people. Li Daoyan once had something to say, and Yun Hao said the same thing as he said. The officials below naturally understood what the relationship between the two was, and they would never dare to argue on the issue of wagons.
"Are you going to attack Goryeo?" Yuangai Suying looked at Yun Hao and said helplessly.
"When you bring potatoes and corn seeds back to Goryeo, you are doomed to the fate of your nation. Our emperor will not allow your potatoes and corn to grow and become tools against the Tang Dynasty. You also understand what food means to a country. Yun Hao shook his head helplessly, if he wanted benefits, he had to give the price. Goryeo got the seeds of potatoes and corn, and Li Er would never give him a chance to develop peacefully.
"Can you spare my brother?" Yuangai Suying said gloomily, this is her only hope.
"You know, it's impossible." Yun Hao refused. Although he also thinks that Yuangai Suying is worthy of a generation of heroes, he still can't save Yuangai Suwen's life. Li Er's style has always been to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. At the beginning, he even refused to let go of his own nephew, but now how can he be soft in the face of a Yuan Gai Suwen. If you think about it with your ass, you will know that Datang, whose scientific and technological strength has been greatly improved, is preparing to give the world prestige. And Yuangai Suying is the best baby.
"Once you get acquainted, let's leave him a whole corpse!" After speaking, Yuangai Suying stood up and turned around and left.
Yun Hao pursed his lips and smiled helplessly. Yuangai Suying said it lightly, but he could really figure out how wise Yuangai Suwen would be. Yun Hao boasted that he couldn't do it, and he didn't have the motivation to do it.
The ghost woman is gone, and the tea will naturally not be drunk.
Yun Hao respectfully invited Wei Zheng out, this guy has been listening to the window root in the back. Anything that passed through his mouth was spoken to the emperor, and the emperor would agree with him. It's been years and no accidents!
Loaded with enough gunpowder, Yun Hao embarked on the journey to the east. This is a war of gunpowder, and Yun Hao has this mental preparation. No matter how hard the Koreans try, they will end up being just a pile of minced meat after the smoke of gunpowder.
The train on the tracks was galloping, whether Yun Hao wanted it or not. Under the power of the machine, Yun Hao was sent to Pingzhou as quickly as possible.
Further on Pingzhou is the Daling River, which belongs to the Liaohe Plain. Zuo Wuwei assembled in Pingzhou, and the advance team of the Tang Dynasty was 100,000 people. It has been led by the eldest grandson Shunde and Qibi He Li to cross the Liaoshui and prepare for a hard-fought war with the Goryeo.
Yun Hao was very depressed, he should be on the water now. was left in the army by Li Er, and Li Er's Zuowu Satellite TV was a treasure. The friendship refused to be used, and even the Daling River to the shore of the Liaoshui River took a full ten days.
After traveling more than 200 miles in ten days, it seemed like a turtle crawling in the eyes of other generals. But in Li Er's eyes, it is nothing, as long as Yun Hao says camping. Then Li Er will agree to camp there, and Yun Hao will say when he will leave, Li Er will also follow him.
The gap in knowledge has caused the blindness of behavior, and Guanzhong was born and grew up. Li Er, who was mixed in Jinyang when he was young, has never been to the Northeast. I thought that the farther north I went, the more it should be icy and snowy, and it snowed in August. This is a verse that Yun Hao often sings!
Now before August, people are heated like dogs. We all know that the winter in Liaodong is cold, but who knows. The summer in Liaodong is actually so hot, and the soldiers are so hot that they are like jumping dogs. As soon as the officer gave the order to rest, he would immediately go into the shade of the tree. The tongue sticks out longer than a dog, and a person is covered in sweat as long as he moves. Even the wind that blows is fucking hot.
All the Tang Dynasty troops were wilting on the march, and Niu Jinda had already drunk eight pots of water, but he still felt thirsty. This is also Liaodong, where water is abundant, and if you march in the desert, you should be bringing grapes now.
Yun Hao helplessly wrapped the wet towel around the kettle and shook his kettle hard. After shaking it for a while, he handed the kettle to the old cow. Niu Jinda drank it, and found that the water in the kettle was extremely cool.
There was no way to explain the heat conduction to Lao Niu, so Yun Hao could only put the aura of the god stick on his head. This was originally the method of the desert march, and now it is forced to come up with it. The water system in Liaodong is still developed, but the summer in Liaodong is also terrifying enough.
The reeds on both sides of the Liao River breed mosquitoes all over the world. The mosquitoes in Liaodong are known for their big, ferocious, and vicious bites. As long as it is night, mosquitoes will fly out like bombers.
I finally understand why Yang Guang's three expeditions to Goryeo will fail, even if the Goryeo people do not desperately defend under such natural conditions. The Tang people from Guanzhong will also be tortured to death. Every night, wormwood is lit by clumps. So much so that wormwood has become the most important military material. Yun Hao saw it with his own eyes, on the grassland on the edge of the Daling River. Pile up more than a dozen wormwood!
Of course, there are disadvantages and benefits.
The north bank of the Liao River is rich in a huge crab, and in Yun Hao's opinion, this kind of crab is enough to be as famous as the hairy crab in Yangcheng Lake. It is known for being a big fat and beautiful man, and it is known for future generations. In this era of no industrial pollution, river crabs with large bowls crawl everywhere. At night, just place a tank in the swamp and set a lantern on top of the tank.
The next morning there will be half a tank of crabs, waiting for you to harvest. The soldiers ate huge crabs and kept scratching their huge bags. Pain and joy!
After passing through Liaoshui, there was not a single Korean man.
The advance of the Tang army was so sudden that the Goryeo people were not ready to resist at all. In the past, such a thing would take several months to coax in Datang. We have to wait until the beginning of the new year to start the attack, and even if Goryeo is an idiot, he will get the news of the attack and make some preparations.
But now it's different, the railroad has become a fast way to transport troops. It only takes seven days to send thousands of Tang soldiers from the distant Guanzhong to the Hebei front. With just a simple rest, the army will arrive in Liaodong almost intact.
Li Er looked at the huge map, and said all the details captured these days. The Goryeo army in Liaodong was shrinking towards Anshi City, and Li Er carefully looked at the location of Anshi City. sighed helplessly, his army couldn't get around Anshi City no matter what!
The army was gradually gathering towards Anseongseong, and reinforcements from the Goryeo were also gathering at Anseong.
Yuangai Suwen secretly hated that the Tang people didn't give themselves a chance. Finally stole the seeds of potatoes and corn from Datang, but these two things need to be planted in the ground. Then, after several years of cultivation, it is possible to grow on a large scale. Then it can become the food that fills the stomachs of the Korean people!
But now I just got it back, and I haven't tasted it yet. Tang Jun pressed over, obviously this was not giving himself a chance.
Yuangai Suwen knew that this battle was many times more dangerous than before. The current Tang Army is not the Sui Army that was scattered at the beginning. Moreover, Yuangai Suwen did not dare to send all the troops to Liaodong, because the Liaodong Naval Division was eyeing the sea. The lesson of the last landing has not been forgotten, and if he directly attacks Pyongyang this time, he will not be able to take care of it.
With no choice, Yuangai Suwen could only guard Pyongyang in person. This land nourished by the Taedong River is the foundation of the Goryeo nation. We must not let the Tang people be harmed! Today, two-thirds of Goryeo's grain is produced near Pyongyang.
Liaodong's military can only be handed over to Gao Huizhen, a famous general who resisted the attack of the Great Sui last time. I hope he can hold Anshi Castle, as long as he stays until winter. The men and horses in Guanzhong will retreat immediately, according to previous experience. The people of Guanzhong can't withstand the cold of Liaodong, and even the people of Liaodong are not very adaptable to this kind of weather.
The tactics of the Goryeo people were to delay, and Li Er's tactics were to capture Liaodong as soon as possible. Even if it can't be attacked, the Koreans have to be heavily killed. It doesn't matter if you lose some of your own soldiers, as long as you make a comeback next year. In less than two years, Goryeo will be dragged down. Regarding the city that his cousin didn't attack three times, Li Er actually didn't have much confidence at all. Although, he has gunpowder, fire oil, and other fierce weapons in his hands. But Li Er still felt that if he wanted to defeat the enemy on the battlefield, he needed a horizontal knife and a horse lance in his hand.
Instead of trebuchets, monsters that explode when fired. In war, human courage still comes first, Li Er always thinks so.
When the last Tang army gathered in Anshi City, Gao Huizhen was shocked to find out. This time, the Tang people did not seem to have as many troops as the Great Sui. Are they not so rich anymore?
