Chapter 651: Acting Alone
The new soldiers and horses themselves knew their situation, and they all came for merit, and at this time, they seriously thought about this problem when Li Yuan said this.
With the sea in their backs, they can only move forward and not retreat.
Li Yuan saw that his plan was going well, and he didn't really want to hit their enthusiasm, so he didn't stick to defense for three days.
The number of their soldiers is sufficient, so the number of people taken away by Yuwen Chengdu has reached 30,000 every day, and the seized materials are also increasing.
Li Yuan's side did not stop the new soldiers and horses from fighting alone, the purpose of their coming was not for this, not only did they not stop but also provided them with a map.
With so much convenience, the new 50,000 people completely let themselves go under the leadership of the generals.
The Li family's soldiers and horses did not move, smart people are like this, don't look at the people who are dispatched now, they have to face risks while making profits.
As a commander-in-chief, all he has to do is to be in case of emergency, no matter how much loot he gets, in short, as long as there is a victory in the battle, he will not be missing.
In his heart, he also thought about whether to let people take people out to fight, and after thinking about it, he decisively gave up this idea, the reason is very simple, the Li family's soldiers and horses cannot be lost in this situation, and if they don't fight, they will retain their strength.
Su Gaiwen was really anxious, and thought that if he delayed for a while, the soldiers and horses of the Sui State would be withdrawn without food like the previous times.
In fact, the soldiers and horses of the Sui State not only did not leave, but there were more and more people.
The spies he sent had already investigated the number of soldiers and horses of the Sui State very clearly.
In the capital of Goryeo, the mood of the ministers was far less anxious than that of the generals, because they believed that the soldiers and horses of the Sui State had not defeated them with millions of soldiers and horses, and now it was a fantasy to defeat them with 100,000 people.
The ministers were blindly confident that Su Gavin saw it in his eyes but did not reason with the ministers, because the time given to them was running out.
Just as they were discussing how to unite Silla and Baeksquee, suddenly a guard eagerly sent a battle report from the front, not only one.
After Su Gavin saw it, his face immediately darkened.
At this time, the king of Goryeo, King Rongliu Gao Jianwu, already knew that the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Sui State had occupied a corner, and every day the soldiers and horses of the Sui State were approaching the capital.
King Song Liuwang had no choice at all, looking at a silent minister, he could only tremble in the palace.
He now pinned all his hopes on his courtiers, as for Su Gavin, he didn't like it, but there was no way to let his father be the prime minister of the kingdom, even he had to be jealous.
All the courtiers around him were faithful to him.
Originally, his imperial power was firmly understood, but the Emperor of Sui sent troops to attack Goryeo, which allowed the Su Gaiwen family to take advantage of this opportunity to stop all the military power and the power of the court and government.
If only the Sui State was only a conquest, he would have been able to reunite the imperial power in his hands afterwards, but in fact, after the Sui State had three expeditions, he had to rely on Su Gaiwen to fight for him and protect the land, so by now most of his strength has been divided.
Just like his attitude towards the Sui State, the original purpose of the last mission was to seek peace, and who wanted to be exacerbated by Su Gaiwen's strategy, so the Sui State decided to go on the four expeditions.
King Rongliu was very aggrieved in his heart, and he decided that the root cause of everything was from Su Gaiwen's main battle faction.
In fact, he didn't want to fight, after three wars, although they won, but in fact the loss of soldiers and horses was serious, otherwise why would even 100,000 soldiers and horses need to rely on the alliance of other countries in this situation.
What kind of emperor there is, what kind of courtiers there is, the people around the emperor are the emperor's ironcore, and they are all advocating peace, they are planning to stabilize the soldiers and horses of the Sui State first, and plan to give some benefits to let them leave.
If they want to make this decision happen, then they must face Sugavin, otherwise the war will never end.
Just when they were discussing things, the news that the soldiers and horses of the Sui State were moving like the capital came back, and a piece of news made King Rongliu not calm down.
The ministers around him thought that it was necessary to end the war with the Sui State as soon as possible, and it was not a problem to call the ministers and pay tribute.
Their idea is very simple, what's wrong with surrendering, it's not a shame, the people of Sui will not kill them all, Wenchen, we think a lot, and some things are still very clear.
It is true that the Sui soldiers will not kill everyone, they need the population to occupy and rule is the emperor's purpose, as for the land, is there a lack of this place.
King Rongliu immediately sent an envoy to negotiate with the soldiers and horses of the Sui State, and he decided that the vassals would cede the land according to the emperor's wishes.
They believed that giving them time to accumulate strength with this piece of knowledge of this land would not allow the soldiers and horses of the Sui State to land on the mainland again.
In recent days, Yuwen Chengdu and the others have greatly increased the scope of their raids, because the nearby villages have been patronized by them, and the captured captives are building fortifications for them.
Li Yuan was doing all the tedious things, and he was not polite when he saw that there were workers, and after providing supplies in terms of food, many prisoners gained a lot of weight.
After investigation, I found out that their life was like this, and there were not many times when they could have enough to eat, and working on their side to have food to eat actually increased their happiness.
In such a strange situation, Li Yuan thought about it for a long time before turning the corner.
The key problem of their toughness is that they occupy a favorable position, and the situation in their own country is really not very good, and it is not much better than the Sui border three years ago.
The life of the aristocracy was different.
Li Yuan understood a lot of things and had more details to work out for the next battle.
"Commander, we have gained a lot today, and we want to expand the scope of our search."
Li Yuan looked at the new generals, their purpose was to loot, it was impossible to make them stop, check the range of their daily activities on the map, weigh the pros and cons, and then agreed.
"Yes, but you must increase the number of messengers to ensure your safety." Li Yuan said.
As it was said, expanding the search area was not just about adding messengers, they also needed to carry a lot of food, so they couldn't return in a day.
It means that they will set up camp wherever they go, so that they may face danger, and after some discussion, Li Yuan finally agreed.
The next day, a search party of 20,000 soldiers and horses set off with the necessary supplies.
Looking at Yuwen Chengdu, he also applied for enough food, and set off with people the next day, their purpose was the same, and under the premise of having the support of the rear, they began their independent battles.
As a result, the Xiao cavalry guards led by Yuwen Chengdu were really brave, and the land area of the three-day raid was more than three times that of the other side.
