Chapter 663: Korea Continues its Eastern Crusade

Freshno!

Di Qing put down the letter sent by the Jinyi Guard.

"Chu Yueguo finally transferred troops from the front line, and sent an order for Huang Zhong and others to start retreating westward, abandoning the eastern part of Nanyang, and consolidating the front line of Wancheng.

All the people who can move have migrated here, and not a single grain should be left for the army of Chu Yue Kingdom! ”

150,000 troops.

In addition, there are still 150,000 veterans in the current Nanyang Chuyue Kingdom, and there are more than 100,000 local troops reinforced from all over the country, and there will be 400,000 by then.

With the current strength of the Suzaku Army, this defensive counterattack is not easy to fight.

Chen Liucheng!

The Korean court is completely fried.

"The grain road has been robbed, and all the grain and grass hoarded in the two cities have been burned, what will the front-line soldiers eat?"

"The morale of the army is unstable, and the soldiers of the Eastern Crusade are estimated to be hungry to fight."

"I heard that the army has returned to Xiao County, and Pengcheng of the East China Sea Country has been relieved, and it is replenishing food and soldiers, will it take three or four months?"

Han Ran entered the main hall with a dark face.

The hundred officials immediately fell silent.

The Royal Guard's cavalry of 2,000 soldiers and horses was wiped out.

This is the treasure of the royal family, but it was wiped out without a sound.

Can His Majesty the Emperor not feel distressed, and his face not be dark?

"Can the Crusade continue?"

After Han Ran sat down, he asked directly.

It's very abrupt.

All the officials were stunned.

Han Ran didn't even go crazy.

"With the current situation, can my Korea continue to go east with Chu Yueguo?"

Can the crusade continue?

Pengcheng, which had been besieged for several months, was able to breathe.

Now it has to be surrounded again, and it doesn't take a certain amount of time to mobilize grain and grass.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Chu Yue Guo withdrew 150,000 soldiers and horses from the Huaishui line to Nanyang, and the battle of Huaishui is afraid that it will drag on for a long time!" Shen Bu said:

"And now that the Great Zhou has sent cavalry to help the East China Sea, our Korean Eastern Expeditionary Army will be greatly hindered, and the most important thing is that the Great Zhou can now send troops to the east, and the enemies in the west and north will be eliminated."

Shen Bu is the most disapproving of having a bad relationship with the Great Zhou.

The current environment is extremely favorable to the Great Zhou, and not to the Kanto countries.

South Korea should take advantage of the war between the Great Zhou and Chu Yue to maintain neutrality, reform internal affairs, and accumulate strength.

Otherwise, the first one to be destroyed by the Great Zhou East will definitely be South Korea.

South Korea's strategic location is too special.

Chu Yue has a great country, even if he has been defeated several times, Da Zhou can't swallow Chu Yue.

When the time comes, we will inevitably find new targets for attack.

South Korea is undoubtedly the best target.

This is what Shen Buxian is most worried about.

What South Korea is doing now is to keep giving Da Zhou excuses.

This expeditionary force is a signal.

Da Zhou is still covered up and did not directly show the flag, and the next time it will not be certain.

Based on the calculation of Shen Buxian, the war between Korea and Zhou will be defeated.

The war against the East China Sea is dragging on, and even if the East Sea Kingdom is occupied, it will not be able to make up for South Korea's original losses in the short term.

On the contrary, the national strength is weakened.

"Your Majesty, the major affairs of the country of soldiers, how can we give up halfway." Situ Gong Zhongpeng stood up and said:

"It is precisely because Chu Yue Guo transferred 150,000 troops to return to the west that he should continue the eastward crusade.

Because with this 150,000 army, it can ensure the war on the Nanyang side, so that the Great Zhou will not take advantage of the loophole and use cavalry to break through.

Since the Great Zhou is unkind and sends troops to plunder our Great Han, it is a declaration of war to the Scriptures, and our Great Han should retaliate by closing all the relevant passes and banning all the commerce and trade of the Great Zhou. ”

Again!

However, this time it came back to Han Ran's heart.

He also hated the Great Zhou cavalry to loot Korea and burn grain.

That's all money!

"The Ministry of War, you can find out new information about Luoyang!" Han Ran asked the storm kite.

The violent kite clasped his fists and saluted: "Back to Your Majesty, the Zhou army in Luoyang has not moved recently, and the Qinglong Group Army has withdrawn, but there is something wrong with the Wei State in the north!" ”

"Wei State, what can Wei State do?" Han Ran was puzzled.

The officials were also puzzled, at this time, Wei Guo also jumped out to make trouble?

Storm Kite replied: "The Wei State has increased its troops in the Beibi Mountain, strengthened the soldiers and horses of Mengjin, and there are still a large number of soldiers and horses in the country, it seems that it is intended to do something against the Bohai State!" ”

"Good! That's great! Gong Zhongpeng laughed and said:

"Your Majesty, this is a good thing, the Wei State should also be aware of the wolf ambitions of the Great Zhou, so on the one hand, it strengthens the soldiers and horses on the border with the Great Zhou to deter the Great Zhou.

On the one hand, solve the threat in the east, get rid of the Bohai Kingdom, and cut off the outer arm of the Great Zhou, so that it cannot gain a foothold in the Kanto region! ”

"Your Majesty, our country should speed up the attack on the East China Sea State like this, and maintain the same rhythm as the Chu Yue State and the Wei State to solve the threat in the east.

In this way, the Three Kingdoms can not be restrained by the Great Zhou! ”

All the officials agreed when they heard it.

Even Han Ran was motivated by ambition when he heard this.

Scrape back.

"Good! Since the Wei state is the same as us, it is clear that there is nothing wrong with our eastern crusade. Han Ran said:

"The Ministry of War, in sending an additional 50,000 soldiers and horses to the front line of the Eastern Expedition, stepping up the collection of food, within 15 days, I will hear the news that the Eastern Expeditionary Army will continue to advance."

"Your Majesty!" Storm Kite replied.

…………

Changan!

The Ministry of War forwarded an excerpt from Luoyang.

The one who sent the excerpt was naturally Han Xin, who guarded there.

Ye Qing opened it for the first time and took a closer look.

"Your Majesty, following the increase of troops on the border in Korea, the Wei State has also increased the number of troops stationed in Beibi Mountain, and Meng Jindu has also gathered a large number of warships.

Trade was also greatly disrupted, and although there was no fighting on the eastern border, the atmosphere was tense as if it were war.

Fighting without a fight is not good for my big Zhou, it is better to go to war.

The forces of Wei were driven north of the Yellow River and directly took Mengjin and Pingxian and other places in the northern mountains.

At the same time, he sent troops to break through Nanchuan County, take the Tiger Pass, threaten the capital of Han Zhiguo, transfer his troops and horses to the three passes, and take the three passes in the south, so as to prepare for it to go south to Yingchuan in the future.

Yingchuan can threaten the capital of Han in the north, enter its hinterland in the east, and respond with the Suzaku Group Army in the south.

Kanto can be ...... too"

I have to say that Han Xin's letter is very tempting.

According to him, the operability is great.

Now the main South Korean troops and horses are also on the Eastern Front.

Once it opens, South Korea will be under great pressure.

"Really, none of them are the lords of peace, and they all want to kill them." Ye Qing can understand Han Xin.

Now all army groups have fought.

And the credit is great.

Only the Qinglong Group Army was still lying at home and had not moved.

I only occasionally go out of the city to practice and scare the Han army.

Ye Qing put down the letter, put on a heavy fur robe, and walked out of the imperial study.

Look up at the sky.

It was snowing in the sky.

The goose feathers fluttered and descended gently.

"This year, it's time to take a break, the people have been nervous for a year, and it's time to enjoy a rare winter vacation!"

Recall that this year there has been a bit of a lot of fighting.

Through a series of wars, Da Zhou solved a lot of troubles.

The southwest and north sides are basically fixed, and there is no need to worry about the hinterland of Dazhou being affected.

Many things that restrict the development of the Great Zhou have been removed.

Da Zhou should not be so urgent.

Things in the east can be postponed, and there is no need to rush them.

"Come here, pass the decree, clearly order Han Xin not to send troops, not to make trouble, continue to train soldiers, and at the same time expand Luoyang City, tell him, when Luoyang City will be repaired to Chang'an so that the Qinglong Group can go on the expedition!"

Before Ye Qing added: "Order, the Qinglong Group Army will add ten more regiments!" ”
