Chapter 739: Tang Jun is coming
Although Goguryeo is not a small country, most of its land is in Liaodong.
Naturally, what happened at the mouth of the Taedong River quickly spread to Pyongyang.
"Don't leave the branch, the Tang army is here! The Tang Army is here! The whole sea was covered with the ships of the Don Army, and our sailors were no match for them at all. Although the sailors fought bravely on LinkedIn, our ships were not even half the size of them, and sometimes they rushed directly and our ships were overturned; Then the arrows of the Tang army were the same as those who didn't want money, and the entire water division was almost wiped out! ”
The peaceful and joyful atmosphere in the palace was destroyed in an instant.
Yuan Gai Suwen's face suddenly became ugly, "Tang Jun is here?" As soon as they met, they attacked our sailors directly? When did Datang become so unreasonable? Shouldn't they have arranged for a group of envoys to come over and negotiate before they can make any other moves? ”
"There are no envoys! They are all large armies, and countless huge ships have already gone up the Datong River. Don't leave the branch, Pyongyang City is about to be attacked by the Tang Army, please prepare early. ”
"It's unreasonable, this phenomenon is unreasonable!"
Yuangai Suwen was a little panicked, most of the troops around Pyongyang were arranged to attack Silla, and there were less than 20,000 people left, which was not enough at all.
"Don't leave the branch, although Datang's sea ship is relatively large, the number of people that can be carried on a sea ship is still very limited. Even if the size of Datang's fleet is really very large this time, at most, tens of thousands of people have been transported, so there is no need to worry at all.
We still have 10,000 cavalry at our disposal in Pyongyang, and these elite cavalry, even against tens of thousands of infantry, are sure of victory. Especially in the field, the Tang army did not have the protection of the city and was not our opponent at all. They have come to attack us with their own shortcomings, and they have brought me war exploits. ”
As the only one of the three sons of Yuan Gai Suwen who stayed in Pyongyang City, Yuan Nan Chuan regretted that he had no chance to make meritorious contributions, but now he found that the greatest credit was about to come to his turn, and he couldn't help but smile on his face.
Although over the years, everyone has heard that the Tang Dynasty is a more powerful country than the Sui Dynasty, and the entire Goguryeo has also released its friendly signals to the Tang Dynasty as much as possible.
But Yuan Nanchan was not particularly worried, he simply did not believe that the tens of thousands of infantry of the Tang Dynasty could defeat the 10,000 elite Goguryeo cavalry in the field.
"San Lang is right, unless the Tang army does not get off the ship, tens of thousands of infantry will not be able to pose any threat to our Pyongyang City."
"Don't leave the branch, the last general is willing to lead five thousand cavalry to give the Tang army a surprise attack."
"To be on the safe side, can we consider sending troops and horses back from the frontier? When the time comes, we should join forces with the outside and simply leave all the Tang troops in Pyongyang City, and then we will be able to get countless ships for nothing. ”
"This is a good idea, I think we can also immediately arrange someone to notify Quan Wanxin, so that he can personally bring the troops back to intercept the back of the Tang army, and let them know that our Goguryeo is not so easy to provoke."
"Well said! At the beginning, we were not afraid of the Sui Dynasty, and now we will not be afraid of them in the Tang Dynasty! That Yang Guang, with a million troops are in the hands of our Goguryeo, what is there to worry about now the tens of thousands of Tang troops? ”
After Yuan Nan started this head, other personnel also expressed their opinions there.
The somewhat oppressive atmosphere just now was immediately swept away.
"If it's just tens of thousands of sailors coming, there's really no need to worry too much. It's just that I don't know if Datang has arranged for a large army to attack Liaodong this time, if we fight on two fronts, we will still be a little troublesome. ”
Yuangai Suwen was not so brainless, and he was not carried away by the boasting of his subordinates.
In his opinion, there is no reason why Tang Jun can't think of the problems that his own wave of people can think of at all.
Unless the commander of the Tang Army is like Yang Guang at the beginning, he is holding himself back.
"Mo Lizhi, there is more than a thousand miles of Great Wall on the side of Liaodong, and each city is built very strongly, even if the Tang army attacks Liaodong, there is nothing to worry about. Unless Datang really uses all the power of the country to attack Liaodong, we will really have some trouble.
But according to the news we heard before, the Tang Dynasty is now busy building roads, workshops, and all kinds of construction, even if the Tang Emperor intends to attack us, the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty are not willing to make the scale of the war too large. ”
"There is some truth to that, but you should be careful." Yuangai Suwen thought for a while and said, "Someone, send someone to inform the guards of the cities in Liaodong, Duo'an refuses to wait to inquire if there is any movement of the Tang army nearby, and once there is a situation, immediately report it urgently for eight hundred miles." ”
"Don't leave the branch, it's not good! Oh no! The Tang Army is coming! ”
Just when everyone was just breathing a sigh of relief, another general rushed outside.
"Quan Wanming, why are you patrolling the city wall and running to the palace?"
Yuangai Suwen was a little unhappy to see that the Pyongyang city guard had left his post without being notified by himself.
The Kwon brothers are the generals they rely on very much, and now Kwon Man-myung's elder brother Kwon Man-sin is leading troops to attack Silla, and the defenders of Pyongyang City are also in the hands of Kwon Man-myung.
"The Don army has begun to attack the city! Mo Lizhi, countless Tang army ships suddenly appeared on the Datong River, these ships saw our soldiers, regardless of 3721 began to fire bed crossbows, the crossbow arrows with the thickness of the child's arm, the range is very far, not to mention, the power is even greater, the last general has ordered people to close all the city gates, and asked Mo Lizhi to send troops and horses to help defend the city. ”
Quan Wanming said with a pale face.
For so many years, Pyongyang City has not been attacked in any way, and the life of Kwon Wanming, a guard, is actually very comfortable.
After all, Goguryeo mainly faced the threat from the Tang Dynasty from the Liaodong side, and no one thought that the Tang army would come from the water.
"What a panic! Did the Tang army get off the ship? ”
Yuangai Suwen was quite calm, after all, everyone had just finished analyzing the situation they were facing.
"No, not a single one of us came down, but all the soldiers we went to inquire about were shot as hedgehogs. And, since we have a city gate close to the Datong River, the defenders have already suffered some damage. ”
Seeing that Yuan Gai Suwen was so calm, Quan Wanming also breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, Kwon Wanming's ability is not outstanding in Goguryeo, it is nothing more than victory because the Kwon family is a loyal supporter of the Yuan family.
That's why Yuangai Suwen handed over the city of Pyongyang to him to guard.
"No matter how many ships the Tang Army has and how well they are built, as long as their people don't get off the boat, what harm can it bring us? Could it be that they can still fly in? You tell the soldiers not to get close to the Tang fleet, just watch them from afar, and once the Tang army lands, the cavalry will go to harass them, I would like to see how long they can stay on the ship. ”
Yuangai Suwen Xiong Yu calmly began to dispatch troops.
In his opinion, this was not an opportunity for the Goguryeo people.
This is how the Sui Dynasty came to send a large number of materials and personnel to the Goguryeo people.
The shipbuilding technology of the Tang Dynasty is high, and Yuan Gai Suwen also knows that if he can obtain so many ships this time, Goguryeo's shipbuilding technology will definitely be able to go to a higher level.
