Chapter 509: The Great Army Presses the Realm (2 in 1)

"It's not good to Lu. The territory of Hebei Road in Datang to the west is being mobilized to advance eastward. It should be directed towards our Liaodong City."

Yuan Gaisuwen calmly and said with a serious expression: "The number of enemy soldiers, who is the chief general?"

"The main general is Li Ji, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty. The number of people is unknown for the time being, but initially it is discovered that at least 50,000 are still being investigated."

Li Ji? It turned out to be this person?

When he heard that it was the famous general Li Ji, Yuan Gai Suwen pondered for a moment. Although Li Ji was famous in the Tang Dynasty, he was not very old and had no experience in fighting against Goguryeo. Why was he here?

According to Yuan Gai Suwen's speculation, if the Tang Dynasty really wanted to attack Goguryeo, even if it was not the famous old general Li Jing, he should be Hou Junji, the Minister of War.

Moreover, if Goguryeo was destroyed, it would have at least 200,000 elite troops. Why would it only be 50,000? The number of people would not match.

"Go and find out how many soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty are coming. It is impossible for tens of thousands of soldiers to achieve any results. This must be their conspiracy. I need to know the other party's true strength.

Don't always stare at their army and check their food and grass delivery."

The scout below said in confusion: "Da yrically, the Tang Dynasty is not a country that has always claimed to be a ritual. How could it do such a tacit battle? And the 50,000 army will not destroy our Goguryeo. With General Yizhi Wende here, they can't even pass our Liaodong city."

Hearing that his subordinates were so confident, Yuan Gaisuwen smiled. The Chinese people were not timid in the face of the war, which was a good thing.

But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that it is wrong. Any soldier under his command can see clearly such a simple truth. Will the Tang Dynasty be so stupid? For no reason, will it be a group trip?

Thinking of the strength of the Tang army, the difference between the Tang Dynasty and the former Sui Dynasty, and the Beisha City that was burned a few days ago, it seemed that a flash of lightning was penetrated into Yuan Gai Suwen's mind.

"not good!

They either fought undeclaredly, but they were abandoned sons they deliberately threw out, tempting us to seize the city, and they went to war on this grounds.

What a sinister Tang Dynasty man.”

Hearing this inference, the scout said, "But did they set fire to the Beisha City themselves?"

"Idiot, if our army does not attack, they will not ignite even if they have prepared turmeric oil. Until we are trapped and attacked the city, the fire will be on our heads and it will be impossible to explain it." Yuan Gaisuwen cursed.

"What should I do now?"

Although Yoon Gaisuwen was panicked, even though he had not figured out these causes and effects, Goguryeo was preparing for the war.

"I inform General Wende of Yizhi to strictly guard Liaodong City, and I will continue to mobilize heavy troops to reinforce.

In addition, there must be hidden soldiers in the Tang Dynasty. Find them for me and find out the specific number of people. The transfer of at least 100,000 people cannot be so silent."

The scout took the order again and left, Yuan Gaisuwen felt uneasy and seemed to have ignored something.

Two days later, the second group of scouts sent earlier rushed back quickly to relieve Yuan Gaisuwen's doubts.

"What did you say? The Tang Dynasty borrowed the Du Family Chamber of Commerce and has been transporting food and grass in recent months? And the accumulated inventory has become extremely huge?

Waste, such important news, why do you only find out now?"

This scout was not as lucky as his previous colleague. He was beaten up by the angry Yuan Gaisuwen as a tool to vent his anger.

"Big Lu, it's not that I can't wait and do my best. It's because the Du Family Chamber of Commerce acted secretly and transported everything to Fuyu City, in name, to deliver goods to several other small countries. No one expected that they themselves secretly accumulated it.

And what exactly this batch of goods is? If we haven't reached the hands of several other small countries, our scouting capabilities are limited and it is impossible to find out unless it is the extremely top-level person of the Du Family Chamber of Commerce." The scout defended.

Yuan Gai Suwen waved his hand and said, "Enough, what's the use of saying so much now? Based on this inventory volume, this batch of food and grass should be enough to support the 200,000 army for three months. A good method. Who is the Tang Dynasty? Under our noses, we can openly build a plank road and secretly travel to Chencang? This is to calculate us, and we have been planning for a long time."

At this time, a young man dressed as a scholar, a man who was a little philanthropist but extremely influential in the Tang Dynasty. He also suffered a great loss in his hands, and he founded the Du Family Chamber of Commerce.

Thinking of this, I think of the winter capture given Beisha City, which was abandoned again in less than a year...

"It's not you again, right?

It is best not to let me see you on the battlefield, otherwise you will definitely die!" Yuan Gaisuwen said to himself with resentment.

At the same time, Li Ji, who was responsible for secretly dispatching troops from Hebei Road, had completed his troops and led a large army to slowly head towards Huaiyuan City, the easternmost border of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chengqian was responsible for contacting Li Ji and Fuyu City, and was being asked about the battle situation by Li Ji at this time.

"I have asked my subordinates to pretend to be a 200,000 army to camp. The fighter plane has been there for a few days. If you don't attack after a long time, you may be able to see the clues by Goguryeo. Is there any plan in Fuyu City?" Li Ji asked Li Chengqian.

It can be seen that Li Ji was not in a good mood. Although Li Ji was a Confucian general with a good temper among all the generals, the battle to destroy the country was all relied on a group of younger boys to let a veteran stand behind and watch? It was awkward no matter how you think about it.

If everyone doesn't know about this, it's all right. It's just a group of young men who kill first and then report it. But Emperor Li Er called the veterans to the palace. It's inevitable that anyone would understand this task if it was changed. Almost no one believes that a group of boys who have never really fought a war can bear the heavy responsibility of destroying the country?

If it is really realized, wouldn’t Emperor Daye, who failed to conquer Goguryeo in the former Sui Dynasty, have to get up from his grave?

Li Chengqian said respectfully: "You are the general. Deputy General Du had already set out as a special envoy a few days ago. Now he has successfully negotiated with Khitan and Wei to borrow troops. I believe that he will be able to take down the Martin in a few days. By then, everything is ready and you can start."

"Well... I know. In five days, I will issue a document to declare war with Liaodong City, and then I will make every effort to attract the Goguryeo army in the front.

But we will not take the initiative to attack and start a war unless Goguryeo attacks, this plan will be seen through within five days at most. Therefore, you can seize the opportunity of the fighter yourself." Li Ji ordered.

"Thank you, Marshal!

But I am puzzled. Why not wait until we get together and inform you before declaring war? Wouldn't it be even more foolproof? Otherwise, if anything happens to delay..."

Li Chengqian saluted respectfully and expressed his own opinions.

Li Ji looked at Li Chengqian deeply. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was a prince, Li Ji wouldn't have been so polite.

He shook his head and said earnestly: "War is not a joke, the battlefield is full of turbulence and there is never a time to be foolproof. We cannot only consider our advantages, but also calculate our own disadvantages and the advantages of the enemy.

Although you are sure to gather 200,000 barbarian soldiers, the longer the time is delayed, the greater the possibility of leaking the secret.

Moreover, we are confronting Liaodong City here. The Yizhi Wende on the opposite side is a famous general. After fighting for a long time, he will not attack and will sooner or later be seen through.

According to my coach's calculations, the time left for you is only ten days at most."

Li Chengqian was convinced, "Thank you for your advice from the generals in Fuyu City, and I will go back and notify the generals in Fuyu City."

Li Ji sighed: "I really don't know what Your Majesty is thinking. Letting a group of young boys go to the battlefield will not encourage growth?

If it weren't for this guarantee that one soldier and one soldier in the Tang Dynasty would not have been harmed, I would never have agreed to make a war between the two countries like this.

Go back and tell the two boys Su Lie and Xue Rengui that they should be careful even if they borrow 200,000 barbarian soldiers. After all, they are mobs. If they really face the elite army of Goguryeo, they still need to consider how powerful they are.

If you can’t do anything, try to protect yourself and come back. You are still young and you don’t have to hurry to make achievements.”

In the last sentence, Li Ji's voice fell down. Li Chengqian heard the concern of an elder for his younger generation, and it was definitely not just because Li Ji's son Li Zhen was also in Fuyu City.

When he returned to Fuyu City, Li Chengqian passed the original words to Su Lie and others. Xue Rengui recalled: "My master once taught that when you are foolproof, the more complacent you are, it may be when you reveal the most obvious flaws.

Mr. Li mentioned it correctly, we don’t have much time left.”

"Now we are short of the troops of the Marin clan. I don't know how Qinglian is doing?" Fang Yiai said worriedly.

Su Lie, who was sitting in the first place, frowned and said in a deep voice: "It has been quite a while since the time of burning in Beisha City. Yuan Gai Suwen is not a mediocre master, so he must have noticed it.

Nowadays, there are 100,000 troops of military rations in Fuyu City, which makes people feel uncomfortable. If the situation here is discovered by Goguryeo, it is like a hungry wolf smelling the fragrance of meat, and then I want to rob a large army like Beisha City..."

"No, we did this matter very secretly, and it can be said that it is foolproof..." Before Qin Huaidao's foolproof was finished, he suddenly remembered Xue Rengui's words. It is possible that the flaw was revealed.

Everyone was silent, and Su Lie calmly said: "Do your best to do your best. If things come to this point, you can only hope that God will stand on our side. If you are really attacked by the enemy, our 5,000 elite defenders in Fuyu City are not vegetarians."

"Yes, at worst, I can feed the tiger with my body and bloom in the middle." Li Zhen echoed.

Everyone's hearts were filled with gloom, and the infinite fighting spirit was once again ignited.

But there is no such thing as God's will? Since Goguryeo knew that there were supplies in Fuyu City, he would definitely take action.

Yuan Gai Suwen originally remembered that the army rushed straight to Fuyu City, and used a trick to remove firewood from the bottom of the pot to solve the food and grass in Fuyu City, and cut off the food of the 200,000 troops of the Tang Dynasty. Then the crisis will be resolved immediately.

But I was afraid that the accident in Beisha City would repeat itself. No one could be sure that the food and grass in Fuyu City would be real? If the Tang Dynasty really wanted to attack Goguryeo, wouldn’t the grain transport station be in Yingzhou? Why should it be placed in the dangerous city on the border of Fuyu City?

Yuan Gaisuwen is suspicious in nature, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. If there were no Beisha City incident, he would have sent troops, but now hesitated.

After careful consideration, Li Ji's army on the front must be guarded. What if the Fuyu City was Li Ji's old suspicion formation, when Goguryeo pulled out his strength and got the trap of Fuyu City, Li Ji took the opportunity to take over Liaodong City?

So after thinking about it, Yuan Gaisuwen thought of a solution, which was to drive the tiger and swallow the wolf.

Envoys were sent to persuade the Khitan, Shiwei and Martree tribes, and told them that there were endless supplies in Fuyu City, so that these three hungry wolves could divide Fuyu City. If they were afraid of offending the Tang Dynasty, they could completely use the banner of Goguryeo. At that time, the benefits would be theirs, and the infamous reputation would be borne by Goguryeo.

Such a strategy can be said to be similar to the Tang Dynasty's use of troops to destroy Goguryeo. Logically speaking, there is no reason for these three small countries to refuse such a big pie. But what Yuan Gaisuwen didn't know was that the Tang Dynasty had already taken the lead. It would be difficult for Goguryeo to convince Khitan and other countries.

The Khitan tribe was mobilizing and gathering troops in full swing. The Goguryeo envoys were still very puzzled when they arrived, but they didn't find out anything. They only knew that the people below said that there was a big business to do.

When he saw the Khitan King and talked about robbing Fuyu City, the Khitan King was furious and almost pushed him out and killed Goguryeo envoys. He was persuaded by his subordinates, saying that the Tang Dynasty was the best friend of the Khitan, so how could he do this?

The envoys of Goguryeo were confused and thought to themselves that the Khitan tribes have always been warlike and brave. When did they start to pay attention to these etiquettes of famous masters? When Fuyu City was in the hands of our Gaoguryeo, you seemed to have been here to fight the autumn wind a lot, right?

The Khitan King still has a few capable civil servants under his command. Now the Khitan gathers troops and cannot hide them from the Goguryeo people, but no one knows that we are going to fight Goguryeo and we cannot expose our target yet. If it affects General Du's plan, the Khitan cannot afford to be punished and can only pretend to agree first. The Khitan King sweats coldly, but fortunately he did not kill the envoy, which almost caused a disaster.

So he invited the Goguryeo envoy in again and explained with kind words that the fat Khitan in Fuyu City had long been jealous. He was summoning troops outside to sharpen his knives just to eat alone, but he unexpectedly discovered it by Goguryeo. Since this is the case, the two families will cooperate.

The envoys of Goguryeo were very happy. No wonder the Khitan King was so angry before. So that's how it was. The Khitan barbarians had a big appetite and even dared to take over the city of the Tang Dynasty.

Finally, we successfully reached an agreement with the Khitan King and agreed to take action with Shi Wei and other tribes.

Then when the Goguryeo envoy convinced Shi Wei, another incident happened. The leader of Shi Wei was obsessed with making long-term benefits from the Tang Dynasty, and did not care about these robbery transactions that made him rich overnight, so he was unwilling to agree.

However, in order not to expose his intention to mobilize troops, Shi Wei, like the Khitan, claimed to be the one who wanted to take over the troops and the troops were ready.

The envoys of Goguryeo couldn't help but persuade him. How could this work? Don't stop not capping Fuyu City, Khitan and Shi Wei started to do it first.

So he put forward a condition and wanted to use Goguryeo's power to suppress Shi Wei, saying that Goguryeo had a 20,000 army leader, and other tribes led troops to follow, Fuyu City belonged to everyone, and no one was allowed to take it alone. In the end, the leader of Shi Wei surrendered in dissatisfaction and agreed to divide it equally.

The envoy of Goguryeo asked someone to send news back and asked for 20,000 troops to come out. Yuan Gaisuwen agreed.

The two small countries in front agreed, but when they arrived at Marine, the Goguryeo envoy had no time to say anything, and was killed by the leader of Marine with a knife and sent back to Goguryeo.

At the same time, there was also a sentence that Gao Guli wanted Mary to help, so let Dada come to apologize in person before saying something else.
