After the good news, Emperor Yang of Sui did not make the next step as soon as possible, but asked people to send the news to the various state capitals of Sui State.

There was no such pomp during the three expeditions to Goryeo, and the first victory of the imperial expedition was different.

Liu Xuanli, the squire of the military department, did not want to destroy the emperor's good mood, but he knew the situation ahead, no matter what happened after the occupation, the food was limited, and if they did not transport the troops in the past, they would still bury everyone because of the food problem like last time.

This was the case with Li Yuan, who, after occupying the port, sent a large number of scouts to conduct reconnaissance within a certain range, and several of them engaged the Goryeo soldiers and horses.

Li Yuan saw that a small number of Goryeo soldiers were fighting, and the number of the other party was only a few hundred, so he dared to take the initiative to provoke them, obviously this strategy of luring the enemy was seen through.

As a result, the Goryeo soldiers fled after fighting with the Li family's soldiers and horses, and after many temptations, they did not see the pursuers, and they had no choice, and finally did not appear again.

After the soldiers and horses of the Sui State landed on the shore, the Goryeo soldiers sent the news into the city, and Su Gaiwen immediately rushed the soldiers and horses after getting the news, and soon gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses.

Their battle this time was still their usual technique of luring the enemy, and they planned to lure the pursuers out and break them one by one on the way to pursue like last time, but unfortunately this strategy had no effect on Li Yuan at all.

Li Yuan did not have a better strategy, the situation in Goryeo was very passive, they were not familiar with the terrain, so they did not adopt the method of taking the initiative, but continued to build defenses.

In a few days, the fortifications on the shore were strengthened again, the campfires at night, the horse rejection array during the day, and the horse traps that Li Jiancheng learned from the pioneers, once again the soldiers worked every day, and it was more like a construction team of 50,000 people who wanted to come to fight.

So in this way, the soldiers and horses of the Li family performed their duties, reinforced the construction, mining, went out to listen to the news and familiarize themselves with the environment, and some of the sick people were transferred to the shore to rest.

The number of Su Gaiwen's soldiers and horses was almost the same as the number of soldiers and horses of the Li family, but he did not dare to give the order for a full-scale attack, and the reputation of Tang Guogong was even heard of by Su Gaiwen.

Different from other generals, Tang Guogong can be said to be a half-life figure of Rong Ma, through a few battles, it can be known that they are different from the previous soldiers and horses of the Sui State, and their combat effectiveness is definitely the strongest they foresee except for the vanguard.

Su Gavin knew very well that the opponent he faced this time was very strong, so he was waiting, waiting for more soldiers and horses to be gathered, not only from his own country but also from Silla.

Now that the soldiers and horses of the Sui State have landed on the mainland of Goryeo, I believe that Silla and Bai Squeezing will also have a sense of crisis, and he will be able to get two helpers with this.

Waiting at the same time, on the shore of Penglai, Lai Hu'er was very anxious, which was delayed for two days, and the emperor had not even sent troops and food, and if it was consumed like this, it was not certain whether Li Yuan could support it when he landed in Goryeo again.

At this time, Li De also had to stand up and speak out, after all, Tang Guogong was his father-in-law, although he was more ambitious, but this was not the reason why he could abandon him.

Li De is not a ruthless person.

"Your Majesty, the governor of Youzhou asks to see you." The guards came to report.

Emperor Yang of Sui was discussing things with several ministers, and it was the first time that the governor of Youzhou took the initiative to ask to see him, so he ordered people to be brought in.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty on the victory in the battle ahead." Li De came in and complimented him first, he also despised this emperor so much, and he still had to take care of his face.

"Governor of Youzhou, do you have something to do with Lonely?" Emperor Yang of Sui became serious, as if he really had something serious to do.

The atmosphere was serious.

Li De scolded in his heart, but still said: "I want to ask about the payment of money and grain." ”

Emperor Yang of Sui only then thought that he was not at ease now, and he was facing a more important thing than the battle in Goryeo, that is, food.

550,000 soldiers and horses were consumed, but it put enough pressure on him.

"The money is already on the way, you are in too much of a hurry, and now the fleet is about to go on the expedition and you need to allocate a batch of food in advance, is there a problem?"

Emperor Yang of Sui smelled it, and he had actually made a deal.

"Absolutely." Li De agreed.

So Emperor Yang of Sui then ordered the second group of troops to board the ship, and the people who went this time were 50,000 soldiers and horses led by Yuwen Chengdu and a large amount of food.

Li De said in the barracks that he could only do this with this logistics, this emperor was unreliable, so he could only let Li Yuan ask for more blessings.

After the second group of personnel arrived, the situation on the shore of Goryeo was different, and the Xiao cavalry guards led by Yuwen Chengdu didn't care about that, and when they saw that there were Goryeo soldiers and horses attacking and harassing, they pursued them directly.

Li Yuan couldn't stop him when he saw this, although he was the commander, but he really had no way to deal with Yuwen Chengdu and Xiao Caiwei, so he could only let this brave Tianbao general do whatever he wanted.

Originally, Li Yuan was still worried about them, always afraid that they would be ambushed by the enemy, so he sent someone to follow, and once he encountered an accident, he would come back immediately to report the news.

What surprised him was how powerful Yuwen Chengdu and Xiao Cavalry Guards were, and as a result, they directly annihilated the hundreds of people who lured them.

Seeing this, Su Gaiwen also had a headache, and he didn't expect that there were such soldiers and horses in the Sui State, which made him feel dangerous, so he didn't send troops to attack for a long time.

Su Gavin didn't send troops out, but how could Yuwen Chengdu be a person who could be idle, since he went ashore, not only himself, but also the entire soldiers and horses of the Xiaocai Guards were all restless.

In their opinion, what is in this land is military merit, and the temptation of merit dooms them to wildness, so they go out by day and come back at night, just as if they went out hunting, and yes, they return to rob a great deal of wealth.

Li Yuan really wanted him to keep a low profile, but he imagined that he was going to fight, after all, they were here to fight, since the Xiao Cavalry Guards could adapt to the battle here, then let them fight, at least they could weaken the enemy's strength.

After coming back for the third time, he didn't stay too long, and the third batch of grain transported accounted for ninety percent, and after a brief understanding, he knew that the money from Chang'an had arrived a few days ago.

Liu Xuanli of the military department immediately bought a large amount of grain from the vanguards, and now Penglai's soldiers and horses have to rely on the vanguard to live, with food makes him more confident, and he also knows that the transportation of grain can not be delayed, so he also set sail some time in advance.

After the third food shipment arrived, Li Yuan was temporarily relieved, and with food that could support the battle, he would be able to implement the next step.

Su Gaiwen's gathering of soldiers and horses was not so smooth, not that he couldn't gather soldiers and horses, but that all his calculations were destroyed by Yuwen Chengdu.
