Chapter 252: On the Victory and Defeat of Goguryeo

The eldest grandson, Ah Weng, is really a hero! ”

In the Yunnei Racecourse, Li Yan couldn't help but praise loudly, full of reverence and yearning.

Han Cheng, who was on the side, was also full of admiration.

It was noon one day nearly a month after Changsun Sheng had left here.

It was also at noon on this day that Han Cheng and Li Yan learned about some things that Changsun Sheng was doing in the Turkic country.

For example, he directly forced the new Turkic khan to kill his henchmen.

And the people who were killed were the Turkic nobles who colluded with Shi Nai He in the Turkic country and wanted to fight the idea of Yanchengchang.

This kind of thing that can be suppressed by the king alone in a foreign country makes people yearn for it when they think about it.

And this kind of thing, this old man didn't mention it at all when he met them before, and kept smiling and talking about some family things, as if what he did was just some trivial things that were not worth mentioning, and it was not as important as eating.

"A real husband too!"

Han Cheng stretched out his hand and slapped his thigh, exclaiming, full of admiration.

No matter what era it is, there will be some people and some things that are worthy of our admiration......

In the county seat of Mayi, which was changed from the county mansion to the county guard mansion, Han Cheng was staying in the study of Li Jing, the future father-in-law.

At this time, it was already autumn, and after being manipulated like that by Changsun Sheng, the various tribes of the Turks seemed to be very honest, and no tribe dared to die and come to Mayi County to harass them.

Han Cheng stayed there for a few months, and after training the guards of the horse farm for almost a while, he returned from the Yunnei horse farm with some people.

One is to look at the family, and the other is to discuss some things with Li Jing, the teacher, plus the future father-in-law.

"Expand the size of the township regiment?"

Li Jing asked rhetorically.

Han Cheng nodded.

Looking at the disciple in front of him who was favored by himself plus his future son-in-law, Li Jing couldn't understand his thoughts for a while.

From last year to this year, the number of soldiers and horses in Mayi County has been increasing.

Not only the guards of the Qingque Township Regiment and the Yunnei Horse Farm, but also the county soldiers here he also recruited people.

Today, the number of soldiers in the county has reached 2,500.

In the entire Mayi County, except for the Heng'an Town Army, which was not under his control, there were already 4,200 soldiers and horses.

Compared to before, the number of people has doubled.

This is already a lot in Li Jing's opinion, and the growth rate is also very fast, but his future son-in-law is still too little.

This made Li Jing, who was always conceited, feel a little ashamed.

"What do you think?"

After being silent for a while, Li Jing asked out loud.

Han Cheng looked up at Li Jing and was not too surprised.

Today's Ma Yi soldiers and horses have reached a critical value, which Han Cheng knows, and the old man's reaction was already expected before he came back.

Since there is an anticipation, there are naturally some ways to deal with it.

"Does the teacher think that the Supreme of the day will continue to use force to crusade against the unsubordinate?"

Han Cheng asked Li Jing with a smile.

Li Jing glanced at Han Cheng and did not speak immediately, but lowered his head and pondered.

After a while, he spoke: "Today's Supreme likes war.

Now, the Northern Turks have been subjugated to our Great Sui for a long time, and last year the Supreme personally led troops to attack the Western Regions, and Tuyuhun was almost wiped out.

The countries of the Western Regions have bowed down one after another, and many territories in the Western Regions belong to my Great Sui.

The western lands are now worry-free.

Nowadays, only Goguryeo in the northeast is considered a relatively strong country.

I think the next target of the Supreme is Goguryeo. ”

Seeing what Li Jing said so categorically, Han Cheng couldn't help but be stunned.

This old man of his own can!

He is worthy of being a famous player of the future!

It was because he came from later generations and knew these histories, so he knew that in the near future, Yang Guang would launch a major war against Goguryeo.

This old man of his own does not have these experiences of his own. It is really admirable to be able to deduce Yang Guang's next actions based on some things.

Seeing Han Cheng's admiring gaze, Li Jing's mood suddenly became refreshed.

He reached out and stroked his beard, and then continued: "The contradiction between Goguryeo and the Great Sui has existed for a long time.

As early as the lifetime of Emperor Wen and the state of Chen in the south had not been destroyed, Goguryeo colluded with the state of Chen.

After the fall of the southern state of Chen, Goguryeo was unreasonable to my Great Sui, and Emperor Wen sent troops to attack Goguryeo.

The Goguryeo monarchs were frightened and immediately went to the book to beg for mercy.

At that time, due to the unaccustomed water and soil, and the sea encountered strong winds and waves, many soldiers were killed and injured, and most of them were lost before they reached Goguryeo.

Therefore, Emperor Wen also asked people to withdraw their troops and return them.

In the third year of the Great Cause, that is, the year before the Great Cause, the Supreme Governor toured the Great Wall to Yulin in the north and summoned the Turkic Qimin Khan.

At that time, Goguryeo secretly sent an envoy to the Khan of Qimin, but Qimin did not dare to hide it, so he sent the Goguryeo envoy to the Supreme and handed it over to the Supreme for disposal.

The Supreme was furious at that time, and wanted to kill these Goguryeo envoys, and sent troops to crusade against Goguryeo, but was persuaded by Pei Ju, and changed to the official Shangshu Niu Hong to announce the decree, so that the king of Goguryeo came to the court to visit.

Several years have passed, and until now, the king of Goguryeo has not come, nor has he sent an envoy to explain.

According to today's supreme nature, Goguryeo, which is unreasonable, will naturally be listed among the targets of crusade.

And the canal is under construction, and it only ends in Zhuo County in the north, and once the canal is completed, it is very convenient to transport grain and grass in the south...... And today's supreme, the heart is extremely high, and he wants to surpass the first emperor.

At that time, the first emperor had not conquered Goguryeo, and now the Supreme naturally wants to give it a try......"

Han Cheng gave a thumbs up to the old man in front of him who was talking eloquently.

There are some things that the old man said that he doesn't know.

"What does the teacher think will be the outcome of this war?"

After Han Cheng expressed his respect for his father-in-law, he began to ask this extremely important question in his opinion.

"Goguryeo is also a relatively strong country, but it is still too weak compared to my Great Sui!

If it weren't for the cold and long winters, the rainy summers, and the rugged and muddy roads, it would have been destroyed during the reign of Emperor Wen.

However, there is nothing to be afraid of, only two generals need to be sent to lead the army, one by land and the other by sea, and Goguryeo will inevitably not be able to ...... for long."

When Li Jing talks about this, he still talks eloquently, far more than when he talks about political affairs.

In his words, although he didn't despise Goguryeo too much, he didn't take it too seriously.

Han Cheng sighed, what Li Jing said was indeed good, but unfortunately, Yang Guang would not act like he said......
