Chapter 762: Expedition to Goryeo (1)

Feng Mo, who was in Shenzhou, received Jia Ke's will ten days later.

Feng Mo did not dare to slack off after receiving the holy order, and immediately summoned the generals under his command to discuss the matter of entering the army.

The generals under Feng Mo did not take a small Goryeo in their eyes, and when they heard that the emperor had an order to enter Goryeo to eradicate the rebels, they rushed one by one and asked Feng Mo to go to war with the army.

Feng Mo looked at the generals below and was quite satisfied, so Feng Mo ordered: "The general soldier Xie Jie led 10,000 horses and marches to be forwards, and the commander personally led 80,000 horses as the Chinese army." Deng Xiao took 10,000 horses as the follow-up. ”

Three days later, Feng Mo took 100,000 horses and swore an oath to the expedition, and crossed the green water and went straight to Goryeo.

Lin Jianlong received an urgent military report in Seoul and was shocked to learn that the Celestial Empire had raised 100,000 troops to recruit him.

Lin Jianlong summoned all the civil and military forces in the palace in Seoul to discuss how to retreat from the enemy.

As a result, when the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs heard that the Celestial Empire had sent troops to recruit them, they trembled with fright, how could they have an idea for him.

Lin Jianlong looked at the people below one by one, and he didn't get angry.

However, it is no wonder that these civil and military ministers below, who have integrity and ability, have been cleaned up by Lin Jianlong.

The rest are just wine bags and rice bags, attached to Lin Jianlong who want to seek glory and wealth.

But it's not that these people are all wine bags and rice bags, and there are one or two of them who have the ability, but these people are wise enough to protect themselves and don't want to be the first bird.

Lin Jianlong saw that he couldn't count on these people, so he could only be arbitrary.

"Today, the Northern Dynasty is not benevolent, and I don't remember that I Goryeo is respectful to it, and on the grounds of some trivial things, I would rather break the jade than destroy it."

"Pass on my order, the pass of the northern border pass, not a single soldier of the northern Kou must be allowed to enter, and it must live and die with the city."

"Then order all localities to gather troops and horses, and rendezvous in Pyongyang, and this king will personally lead Yu Beikou to fight to the death."

After Lin Jianlong said this, he brushed his sleeves away.

But what he didn't know was that these wall grasses in the palace had already thought carefully when they knew that the commanders of the Northern Celestial Dynasty were coming.

On the way out of the palace, they had already connected with each other and formed several small groups.

On the third day, Lin Jianlong hurriedly went north with a total of 30,000 escorts from Seoul. He handed over his capital to the most trusted prime minister, Jin Yuan.

By the time Lin Jianlong arrived in Pyongyang with his men, more than 200,000 people had gathered here.

These soldiers and horses were the most elite soldiers in Goryeo, and they were also the basis for Lin Jianlong to take charge of Goryeo.

Lin Jianlong rested in Pyongyang for three days, and then headed north with the nearly 300,000 horses.

At this time, Feng Mo had already broken through the Green River, and the army drove straight in.

Feng Mo's first target is Sinuiju, which is the first major city bordering the two countries and the only way to Pyongyang.

Lin Jianlong also knew the importance of Sinuiju, so he arranged for 30,000 horses to guard the city here.

If it was a few years ago, the Central Plains people would have 100,000 soldiers, and it would have taken some effort to conquer Sinuiju.

However, with the promotion of firearms units throughout the country, especially in the important towns of the Nine Borders, these units have all been reequipped, not only equipped with flintlock guns, but also various types of artillery.

However, Goryeo lived its own small life completely and did not care about the military development of the Central Plains, so this time it suffered a big loss.

After Feng Mo came to the city of Sinuiju, he did not rest, and immediately ordered the more than 100 artillery pieces of various types he brought to start shelling Sinuiju.

Where have the defenders of Sinuiju seen such a thunderous momentum?

As a result, Feng Mo's artillery unit had just bombarded for an hour, and the defenders above had already dispersed in a hurry.

Feng Mo didn't know much about the results of his shelling, and still ordered the artillery to bombard for more than an hour, and then stopped the shelling and ordered the infantry to step forward.

Originally, these infantry were determined to die as the first wave of attack. As a result, they came to the bottom of the city, and no one stopped them when they entered the gates.

Seeing this situation, the general who led the team hurriedly reported to Feng Mo.

Feng Mo was also surprised when he got the news, since he joined the army, he has fought in the south and the north, every battle is a tough battle, and this kind of thing has never happened.

Feng Mo was afraid of deception, so he didn't dare to send all the troops into the city, but searched the city according to the vanguard to see if it was the other party's plan.

As a result, the vanguard searched Sinuiju all over the city, and there was not even a single defender except for the people.

At this time, Feng Bai led the army into Sinuiju with peace of mind.

Feng Mo summoned the generals in the lobby of the Yamen in Sinuiju.

The generals below were now smiling and relaxed, they didn't expect that the soldiers of Goryeo would be so vulnerable.

Feng Mo sat in the lobby with a smile on his face, he patted the table lightly, and said to the people below, "Okay, don't make any noise." Now that Sinuiju is broken, the next stop is Pyongyang. I got the news that the puppet king of Goryeo has gathered 300,000 people and is waiting for us in Pyongyang, and a big war will follow. ”

After listening to Feng Mo's words, the generals all became serious, although they felt that the soldiers and horses of Goryeo were vulnerable to the battle of Shinuiju, but the 300,000 horses gathered in Pyongyang this time were also the elite of Goryeo, and with the puppet king of Goryeo personally commanding them, the combat effectiveness would not be too sparse.

Chief soldier Xie Jie stood up and said: "Don't worry, commander, we are all firearms, and the troops have artillery to help, but the other party is just cold weapons, and in the eyes of the last general, the enemy's will to fight is not very tenacious." The marshal will lead the soldiers forward, and he will definitely be able to succeed in a battle. ”

Feng Mo smiled with satisfaction, it seemed that the generals below did not have any fear.

"Although what you said makes sense, after all, the other side has 300,000 horses, we can't take it lightly, pass on the commander's order, repair for three days, and then the whole army will advance to Pyongyang."

Not to mention that Feng Mo's army was resting in Sinuiju, only that the remnants of the defeated generals who escaped from Sinuiju fled all the way to Pyongyang.

Lin Jianlong was shocked after receiving the news that Sinuiju had fallen, he thought that there were 30,000 elite soldiers in Sinuiju, and the other party had more than 100,000 horses, and it would take a month or two to break through Sinuiju, but he didn't expect that Sinuiju would be captured by the other party in just one day.

Lim Jianlong recruited Choi Yu, the defense general in charge of Sinuiju.

This Cui Lu came to the palace in Pyongyang with trepidation, this time he lost the city and lost his land, and he didn't know what the king would do, and every time he thought of this, he was panicked.

Cui Lu entered the main hall of the palace, quickly knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Lin Jianlong, who was sitting on it.

Lin Jianlong didn't let the fleeing general stand up, but asked in a gloomy tone: "You have also been a fierce general for many years, why did you lose Sinuiju in one day?" ”

After hearing this, Cui Lu's heart was even more cold, listening to what their king meant, this time he was in a catastrophe, thinking of this, he also let go, and said directly to the above: "King Qiyu, it's not that the last general doesn't fight to the death, it's really the Central Plains people are too powerful, they can make thunder." At that time, Sinuiju was bombed to pieces, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties. At this time, I had to withdraw from Sinuiju. ”

Lin Jianlong sat on the top and was amused by this fleeing general, this is all a myth, and he also made a thunderbolt, so it was almost said that the heavenly soldiers would help the Central Plains people in the future.

Lin Jianlong doesn't have time to talk to this person now.

"Come on, drag this general who is greedy for life and afraid of death out for me and behead him, so that the generals below can take a look, this is the end of losing the city and losing the land, greedy for life and afraid of death."

Cui Lu didn't expect the king to push out and behead him with just one sentence he said, where could he stand this, this battle had nothing to do with him, didn't he want to kill himself?

So Cui Lu shouted loudly, but where could Lin Jianlong allow him to continue shouting, and glanced at the soldiers below, and the soldiers immediately took the knife to Cui Lu's mouth and smashed it vigorously a few times.

Then after Cui Lu lost his voice, he quickly dragged him to the square, killed him with a knife, and then sent the head to the main hall for Lin Jianlong to check.

When Lin Jianlong saw that Cui Lu had been killed, he said to the lieutenant general below: "Tomorrow we will set off north to recapture Sinuiju." ”

The next day, Lin Jianlong led 300,000 soldiers north.

As a result, they met Feng Bailing's more than 100,000 horses on the way.

Feng Mo was overjoyed after receiving the news, he didn't expect that the other party would dare to go out of the city to meet the battle after knowing that he had firearms and artillery, which saved him a lot of effort.

The next day, Feng Mo set up a position opposite the camp of the Goryeo Kingdom.

Lin Jianlong did not show weakness when he got the report, and led the soldiers out of the camp.

Lin Jianlong came to the two armies and looked at the Central Plains army, only to see hundreds of round black barrels in front of the Central Plains army, and he didn't know what they were for.

And their soldiers were not holding knives and guns, but burning sticks.

Lin Jianlong suddenly remembered that before Cui Lu died, he shouted to him that the Central Plains people could use thunder, and he couldn't help but be vigilant.

Seeing that the other party had finished lining up, Feng Mo did not send a general to fight the enemy's main formation as before, but ordered the infantry phalanx to press the opponent's formation.

Lin Jianlong saw that the people of the Central Plains did not pay attention to the rules, and did not fight alone, but sent troops to fight. But that's fine, are you still afraid that the other party's burning stick will not succeed?

So Lin Jianlong also ordered his most elite cavalry to attack the opponent's large array.

Feng Mo saw the opposing cavalry gathering in front of the formation, and knew that they were about to launch a surprise attack, so he immediately waved the command flag to order, and the musketeers stopped advancing, reorganized the formation and prepared to shoot.

When the Goryeo cavalry had assembled and began to charge the musketeers of the Central Plains. They were greeted not by the rout of the infantry as before, but by a rain of bullets.

It turned out that Feng Mo had already waved the order flag and ordered, and the musketeers shot in turn.

These flintlock musketeers used a continuous three-stage delivery of fire, maintaining the density of the fire.

Although the cavalry of Goryeo was considered brave, when they approached the musketeers of the Central Plains for one or two hundred paces, it was as if they had touched an invisible wall, and they could not rush through.

Lin Jianlong was already stunned when he saw this situation behind the battle, he didn't expect that Cui Lu to say it was true.
