Mao Yi looked at Liaodong City in the night, and said in a low voice, "Young Master, do you really plan to use this as a foundation?" This Liaodong is a bitter cold land, and the people who live there are also Goguryeo and other border barren tribes who are not subject to the rule of our Central Plains, even if we really stand here, this people who do not submit to it will not be able to do anything. ”

Chen Kefu looked back at Mao Yi and smiled gently, "The capital Jiangnan is good, and I think my Chen ancestors are also the lords of the southeast." It's just that do you think it's still possible to go to Gangnam now? I think that Yang Guang has been divided into Yangzhou since the time of King Jin, and he has stayed for more than ten years. After becoming the Son of Heaven, he opened the Grand Canal that went straight down to Yangzhou, spent countless people's power and money, and now it has already become his second nest. We went to such a place, and it was too difficult to make any waves. ”

"The Central Plains is full of mountains and rivers, but where can we really have a foothold? Seeing that the Great Sui Mansion is about to fall, how can we be buried. Now the Central Plains is full of beacons, and now even Yang Xuan, the richest person in the Great Sui, has reversed. There will be no more peace in this world, how can the husband retreat in the face of this stormy situation. I think that my Chen Kefu is the royal family of Nan Chen, when Sui seized my country, now Sui has no way, lost its deer, I should chase it. ”

On the high city tower, Chen Kefu clearly stated his ambition to others for the first time, although his voice was low, but it was as heavy as a thousand pounds, Mao Yi suddenly knelt on one leg, "Young master, I will follow you to the death and help the young master complete the great cause of recovering the country." ”

Chen Kefu hurriedly bent down, picked up Mao Yi with both hands, patted him on the shoulder, and said happily, "Okay, I miss your Mao family, I have been a loyal minister of my Chen family for generations, and now at this opportunity, you and I should work together to restore the glory of our ancestors." ”

"Today, although there is chaos, Yang Guang is still there, and this great Sui Qi is not exhausted. Although those peasant rebels caused chaos in the world, I think few of these people can really succeed. One by one, they have already deviated from their original intention when they first raised the army, and every peasant army is like this, only thinking about burning, killing and looting, not only the court cannot tolerate them, but even few people will sincerely follow them. ”

Mao Yi nodded, "Young master, today is still in the hands of those aristocratic families, these peasants rebelled, but they did not occupy the righteousness, and the second did not occupy the prestige, it was too difficult to achieve things." However, the young master is different, the young master you are already the Nanchen royal family, and the second is to hold the elite soldiers, but also the young master's rare wisdom and martial arts, broad-minded, listen to judgment and do not confuse, from the good as the stream, bend yourself and admonish, let the virtuous and enabled, frugal and thrifty, generous and love the people. Young master, you will definitely be able to level the world and restore my Chen family's great cause. ”

Chen Kefu smiled, "Mao Yi, where did you learn these sycophants, you have to rely on beating down in this world." I hope you can help me a little more in the future, instead of just thinking about sycophants, I have been taken care of by you since I was a child. In my opinion, you are my brother, and I hope that you can assist me wholeheartedly in the future, and I will not lose you. ”

Mao Yi smiled awkwardly, "Although what I said is a little too gorgeous, but these are indeed the young master's previous cleverness, as long as the young master can continue like this, the restoration of my Chen family is just around the corner." ”

"Okay, I'll remember what you said. For now, we can only accumulate strength to be the right way. I have thought about it for a long time, and I only feel that with our current situation, only by placing it in this bitter cold place in Liaodong that no one is optimistic about, can we have the opportunity to grow. Just wait for the world to be thunderous, and it is the time when our dragon, who has accumulated strong strength, will soar into the sky. As long as we occupy Liaodong, we can further seek the Samhan Peninsula, and we can find opportunities to join forces with the Hu tribes in the north to the north, and when we reach the end of our strength, we will become the king of the northeast. At that time, according to half of the southeast and northeast, why worry about the homeland? ”

Mao Yi nodded, "It turns out that the young master already has a lot of things in his chest, and this is a great good." It's just that, young master, are you really sure that you can defend this land in Liaodong? ”

Chen Kefu's face was full of determination, "It has always been not easy to fight for the world, and now it is really not easy for us to defend Liaodong." But since it is to fight for the world, there will definitely be more difficult things to face in the future, if we are afraid of a small Liaodong City today, then how can we fight for the world in the future? Those who keep it must be guarded, and if they can't be kept, we must also keep it. Liaodong is the key to our recovery, if we get Liaodong, we will win the world, and if we lose Liaodong, how can we fight for the world? ”,

"What the young master said is, but what are we going to do now?"

Chen Kefu gently patted the battlements and said softly, "After this battle, our army must already know about it." It won't be long before the Liao people know that we only have 10,000 soldiers and horses, and they will definitely pounce on us. Liaodong City is their lifeblood, they will definitely not let go of this opportunity, now there are more than 200 mountain castles distributed all over the land of Liaodong, although there are not many soldiers and horses in each city, but they have no worries, they will definitely gather all the soldiers and horses to attack. According to my estimates, it won't take long for the Liao people to gather at least 100,000 horses to attack. ”

"Young master, is there only 100,000 people? This Liaodong City has high walls, if it is only 100,000 people, I am afraid that there is no need to worry. At the beginning, my Great Sui was besieged by a million army for several months, and if we hadn't used the tunnels this time, I am afraid that we would not be able to attack it for a while. ”

"The people of Goguryeo are only about three million, and they have conquered Liao several times before and after, and their army has been consumed by us less than 300,000, how many troops do you think the Liao people can have? That's 100,000 or I overestimated. According to my guess, the veterans of the Liao people who have been on the battlefield are now estimated to be about 70,000 or 80,000 people, even if they are all soldiers and urgently recruit 100,000 people, but after removing the defense of each city, it is already the limit to be able to go north to 50,000 troops. In particular, don't forget that there are also Baekje and Silla to the south of Goguryeo. However, their strength has been weakened, and we are the same, and now there are not millions of heroes in the city, but 10,000 soldiers guarding five cities, and 400,000 people are strong. Everyone is half a pound and eight taels, and the situation is similar. ”

"Young master, otherwise, let's retreat the soldiers and horses of the remaining four cities into Liaodong City, if we defend the four cities, I'm afraid they will be broken by each one." Mao Yi said with some concern. Originally, there were only 10,000 elite soldiers, but now they are still guarding five places, and their strength will decline even more.

Chen Kefu looked at the dark night sky in the distance and smiled bitterly, "I don't know the weakness of the division of troops, but if we retreat to Liaodong City, then we will really be surrounded by the Liao." If it is defended, although the strength will decline, but there are various mountain cities that can be defended, the Liao people want to attack the city, there are fewer people and no effect, and if there are more people, then it will not be able to effectively besiege the rest of the cities, at that time, it is our opportunity. ”

"Young master, it's not a good way to defend the city passively, I think we might as well take the initiative to attack, if we can ambush the Liao people from afar, we may be able to turn defeat into victory, as long as we defeat the Liao army going north, presumably in a short period of time, they must be impossible to send troops to the north."

Chen Kefu was moved by his words at once, he was right, the best defense is to attack, there will always be flaws in defense, but instead of defending with offense, sometimes you can reach the goal in a short time and succeed in a battle. Just thinking about the troops in his hands, and then thinking about the people who had just been trained, Chen Kefu was a little hesitant. It is undoubtedly a huge risk to give up their greatest advantage of owning the fortified city of Liaodong and take those people who have no experience in war out of the city to fight in the field.

"Report to the general, General Rollin has sent someone." One of the guards stepped forward and said loudly.

When Chen Ke heard about it, a cavalryman, led by the guards, walked up to the city tower.

The man was panting and puffing, and he could see that he had come all the way, and his body was covered with blood, and he didn't know if it was the enemy's or his own. The knight walked quickly to Chen Kefu's side, knelt down on one knee and said loudly, "Report to the general, I have come to report the military situation on the order of General Luo Lin." General Luo Lin was ordered by the general to set up an ambush five miles southeast of Liaodong City, and fought a fierce battle with more than 1,000 Goguryeo horsemen who had escaped from the city half an hour ago. After Hu Hai and Shen Guang arrived with their troops, the Goguryeo people were defeated and fled in a hurry, and several generals led their troops to chase and kill all the way, until they reached the waterside of Daliang, leaving only dozens of Goguryeo people to jump into the river, not knowing whether they were alive or dead. Several generals are cleaning up the battlefield and sent me to report first. ”

As soon as he heard that the Goguryeo people who went out of the city were all wiped out, Chen Kefu was in a good mood, "Okay, you did a good job, can that barbarian chief Gao Jianwu be awarded the head?" ”

"Back to the general's words, there were hundreds of cavalry in the fierce battle to protect a gold-armored Liao general, and the soldiers desperately surrounded and killed him, it is estimated that this person is Gao Jianwu, and after a while, General Luo They will come back with his corpse."

For Gao Jianwu, the defender in Liaodong City, Chen Kefu has always admired it, leading 100,000 soldiers and horses to carry the Sui army's million-strong army to attack the city for more than a month, and he is indeed capable. And when he broke into the city tonight, he was able to break through with more than a thousand people, which really made him feel that this person was not simple. Especially when he broke through, his general Gao Ming led more than 10,000 people to voluntarily cover in Dongcheng, instead of scattering in a hurry, you can see his prestige in the Liao army.

For Chen Kefu, now the Liao people are his main opponents. If he can destroy an outstanding general, it will be one step closer to his great cause of recovering the country.

"Okay, General Ben will reward you with a piece of silk, and in addition, you go and bring me a letter to General Luo, and tell him that Gao Jianwu is also a prince, since he is dead, then leave him some dignity, collect his corpse, and transport it back to the city!"

I continued to ask for recommendation tickets
