In the cabin, Su Dingfang sat there with a pale face, but his tall and burly figure was motionless, as if he was competing with others, but only he knew that now he was actually competing with himself, because with every shaking of the ship, he would feel like a mountain in his stomach, but he had the will to force the discomfort in his stomach to prevent himself from vomiting.

Seasickness Su Dingfang also knew before, and even after they arrived in Dengzhou, they deliberately got on the boat and walked around Dengzhou, and they didn't feel particularly uncomfortable, and Su Dingfang felt that seasickness would only happen to people who were not in good health, his body was strong, and he had the courage to fight on the battlefield, so he didn't take seasickness to heart.

But it wasn't until he really went to sea that he found that seasickness has nothing to do with whether he is strong or not, for example, he has a captain under him who is nine feet tall, and he is also born with divine power, and he can knock down a horse with one punch, but when he gets on the boat, he is more dizzy than others, and he vomits in the dark, and now he has fallen to the ground like a mud and can't get up, let alone fighting, it is estimated that a three-year-old child can kill him with a knife.

Su Dingfang's seasickness reaction was also relatively strong, but as the main general, he naturally couldn't vomit everywhere like other people, otherwise how could he have the face to meet his subordinates? So he locked himself in the cabin and didn't go out, and he endured the nausea in his stomach and didn't throw it up, but the more he endured it, the more disgusting he became, and every time he wanted to vomit, he felt stronger than the last time.

"Wow~" In the end, Su Dingfang finally couldn't help it, rushed to the corner of the cabin with an arrow step, and spit out wildly on the edge of a wooden barrel, but when he vomited out, he felt much more comfortable, but his body was a little soft, but it was much better than just now, and he struggled to stand up, then lay down and rested for a while, and when it was almost dark, he felt that he had strength in his body.

"Knock knock~" But at this moment, Su Dingfang suddenly heard someone knocking on the door outside, and then Pei Xingjian's weak voice said, "Sir, the student has something to discuss with you!" ”

"Come in!" Su Dingfang heard that it was Pei Xingjian who asked to see him, and immediately said, although he was still a little weak, he already felt much better, and listening to Pei Xingjian's voice, it was estimated that his situation was not much better.

Sure enough, as the cabin door was pushed open, Pei Xingjian, who had a pale face, also walked in, and even walked a little fluttering, Su Dingfang also pointed to the chair in the cabin and said, "Sit down, how is your body?" ”

"I've vomited several times since yesterday, but this afternoon I'm much better, and I'm already able to drink some water, but my limbs are still a little weak." Pei Xingjian also smiled bitterly at this time, from yesterday to now, he has not eaten anything at all, because he vomits whatever he eats, and the other seasick soldiers on the ship are similar to him, and now they are all half-dead.

"I'm pretty much the same, I didn't expect the wind and waves at sea to be so big, what happened to the brothers on the other ships, and it's not a way to vomit like this, is there a way for the people in the navy to treat it?" Su Dingfang cheered up at this time and asked, they are going to raid Pyongyang City this time, but now the soldiers are all vomiting like this, let alone fighting, I am afraid that they will not even be able to pick up weapons.

"The brothers on the other ships are similar, the number of seasickness is seven or eight out of ten, but the symptoms are mild or severe, and I have also asked the people in the navy, there is no treatment at all, but generally as long as they survive three or five days, they will slowly get used to it." Pei Xingjian immediately replied again.

As soon as he heard that there was no cure for seasickness, Su Dingfang also had a headache and said: "Although three or five days is not long, it is estimated that we will also be on the coast of Pyongyang by then, and even if we start to recover, it is estimated that we will need to rest for two more days, which will be troublesome." ”

"The students are also here for this matter, I asked Liu Renyuan before, and he said that it is estimated that we will be able to reach the coast of Pyongyang in about four or five days, but even if we don't get seasick by then, I am afraid that many soldiers will not be well recuperated, and there will be no way to fight at that time, so the students feel that this matter needs to be discussed with Mr." Pei Xingjian also said with a solemn expression at this time.

Before, he and Su Dingfang underestimated the wind and waves at sea, although the people in the navy repeatedly warned them that they might get seasick, but they didn't pay attention to it, and they underestimated the impact of seasickness, after all, this is not a trivial matter, especially Su Dingfang led by cavalry, and the requirements for physical strength are also higher.

Hearing Pei Xingjian's words, Su Dingfang also showed a contemplative expression, and after a long while, he spoke: "Do you have any good ways to keep the contract?" ”

"I chatted with Liu Renyuan for a while today, the last time General Zhang Liangzhang led his troops to Beisha City, he also participated in the escort, and he had been to the vicinity of Pyongyang before, according to him, there are some islands off the coast of Pyongyang, some are relatively large, there is fresh water on them, which can be used for the army to be stationed for a short time, so I don't think we need to rush to land, we can find a larger island to rest first, and then it is not too late to go ashore!" Pei Xingjian said his opinion at the moment.

Goguryeo also has a navy, but when Zhang Liang crossed the sea before, a big battle broke out between the Tang Navy and the Goguryeo Navy, and the result naturally ended in the victory of the Tang Army, most of the Goguryeo Navy was wiped out, and the rest shrank in the port and did not dare to come out, so when at sea, the Tang Army was at least safe, but if it landed, it would definitely face the siege of the Goguryeo people, so they must also land in the best condition.

Hearing Pei Xingjian's suggestion, Su Dingfang also showed a thoughtful expression, although Li Shimin did not stipulate when he had to attack Pyongyang, but he was also in a hurry to land early, as long as his army appeared near Pyongyang, it would make the entire Goguryeo panic, and the pressure on the front line would be reduced, and even if he could capture Pyongyang City in one fell swoop and capture Quan Gai Suwen alive, it would be a great credit, and it should not be a problem to seal a prince in the future.

However, thinking of the current situation of the army, Su Dingfang could only sigh helplessly and said: "Okay, tomorrow I will discuss with General Qiu to see if I can find an island near Pyongyang to rest and recuperate, and then land!" ”

General Qiu is the chief admiral of the navy who escorted them this time, and he is also Liu Renyuan's top boss, named Qiu Xiaozhong, and it was he who led the navy of the Tang Army to a decisive battle with the Goguryeo naval army, and destroyed the opponent's main force in one fell swoop on the sea not far from Bogoukou, which also made him extremely prestigious in the navy.

Seeing that Su Dingfang agreed with his opinion, Pei Xingjian was also relieved, he knew Su Dingfang's desire to make meritorious contributions better than anyone else, so he was really worried that he would forcibly land regardless of the soldiers' bodies, but fortunately, Su Dingfang was a rational person and would not be easily swayed by his emotions.

After resting for a night, Su Dingfang finally felt much better, as if he had adapted to the bumps in the sea, and at this time the benefits of his physical fitness finally appeared, at least he recovered faster than others, and even drank a bowl of gruel in the morning, while Pei Xingjian, who was younger than him, still couldn't eat anything.

At that moment, Su Dingfang also immediately discussed things with Qiu Xiaozhong, and the other party had reminded Su Dingfang many times of the situation that he might encounter at sea, but Su Dingfang had never taken it seriously, and this time he offered to find an island to rest and recuperate, which made Qiu Xiaozhong laugh at him a few words, but finally agreed.

A few days later, Su Dingfang and their fleet arrived in the open sea of Pyongyang, and then found a relatively large island to dock, originally there were some Goguryeo fishermen on the island, but after the arrival of the Tang army, they immediately gathered all the fishermen on the island, mainly because they were afraid that these people would go to the shore to report the news, after all, Su Dingfang and they wanted to achieve the effect of a surprise attack, they must not leak the news of the army.

At the same time, in a large-scale mansion in Pyongyang City, Quan Gai Suwen sat there with a frown, looking at the news he had just received in his hand and was silent, this information was sent from Anshi City quickly, it was written that Anshi City had fallen, and Yang Wanchun had also killed himself, and the Tang army could kill Pyongyang City at any time.

In fact, Quangai Suwen was not surprised by the fall of Anshi City, because when he heard that Gao Yanshou's 150,000 army was almost wiped out, he had already guessed this result, after all, there were only tens of thousands of people in Anshi City, even if Yang Wanchun was capable, he could not make up for the gap in strength, so he didn't think about sending troops to support at all, but what he didn't expect was that Yang Wanchun would be able to survive the first round of the Tang Army's attack, and even if he could hold out for a few more days, maybe he would also consider sending reinforcements.

Of course, the reason why Quangai Suwen did not send reinforcements, in addition to the above reasons, the most important reason is that Gao Yanshou's 150,000 army was annihilated, so that he had no troops available at all, Pyongyang City had tens of thousands of defenders, but he did not dare to use it at all, so during this time he also desperately gathered troops, for which he even transferred the defenders of some cities, after all, in this situation, keeping Pyongyang City is the most important thing, and it doesn't matter if other cities are lost.

Pyongyang City is the capital of Goguryeo, more than 200 years ago, the 24th king of Goguryeo, that is, King Changshou moved the capital to Pyongyang, after more than 200 years of operation, the current Pyongyang City is also a strong city, but Pyongyang is surrounded by a plain, almost no danger to defend, if the Tang army attacked, the only thing that Quangai Suwen could rely on was the thick city wall, of course, he had another choice, but now he has not made up his mind.
