Chapter 391: Attacking Goguryeo
As long as Jin Shengman did not interfere with his deployment, Situ Changfeng would not care about her private life, and of course he would not worry about Jin Shengman marrying Li Tai and making trouble for him in the future.
The acceptance of Silla was faster than that of Baekje, and the number of Silla people was smaller, with a population of less than 2 million; Second, the officials from Datang have become familiar and naturally more proficient.
Another 50,000 elite young men and 50,000 auxiliary soldiers were selected from Silla, plus Baekje's manpower, and they trained for another month until mid-July, when the integration was completed, and the army once again advanced to Goguryeo.
This expedition was very sufficient, with 300,000 soldiers from Silla and Baekje, plus 280,000 and 580,000 troops from the Tang Dynasty, marching into the Goguryeo territory.
All the way forward, I didn't see a single figure for five days, just like I was in a desolate desert, there was no one in the village, no one in the county, let alone people, not even a chicken or dog.
Of course, Situ Changfeng knew that this was the usual tactic of Goguryeo, fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness, dragging the battle line, firstly, to find more opportunities, and secondly, to increase the logistical consumption of the Tang Dynasty.
It's a pity that they are old ideas, and they think that Datang is similar to the former Sui, and they estimate it according to the strength of Datang before.
But there are two mistakes, the first is that this time Datang attacked from the sea, and the logistics route was very easy.
If it is said that the transportation of grain and grass on land is ten out of ten points, and only three points to the location, then the sea transportation is at least seven points, not to mention that Silla and Baekje also have grain storage support.
The second mistake, which is the wrong direction, attacked from the direction of Baekje and Silla, completely bypassing the Great Wall built by Goguryeo, and the defense on this side was much weaker!
And Situ Changfeng is not in a hurry to win, 150,000 auxiliary soldiers, plus 150,000 new soldiers, new soldiers in front, auxiliary soldiers in the back, open up a spacious road, straight to Pingxiang.
There are also fortifications built along the way to ensure the safety of the retreat, and 30,000 elite cavalry, cruising and exploring, also ensures that the ambush is ineffective.
At the end of August, after more than a month of marching, the army approached Pingxiang and faced Pingxiang across the river.
On the turbulent banks of the Taedong River, Goguryeo built many fortifications, apparently trying to defend against the danger.
Situ Changfeng left 50,000 Silla auxiliaries to cut down trees on the opposite bank, build new ships, and make it look like he was going to cross the river and attack.
Just when Goguryeo was nervous and broke away from the heavy troops on the other side of the river, Situ Changfeng led people to land from the sea and was already approaching the city.
Although it was unexpected, it did not attack Pingxiang City, firstly, there were many guards in the city, and secondly, only 30,000 people landed in the first batch.
By the time Goguryeo came to the rescue, all the Tang soldiers had already besieged Pingxiang.
Facing head-on, Situ Changfeng discovered that Goguryeo actually had two more support armies.
One has 50,000 Xi people, and the other has 150,000 Khitan people.
50,000 Xi people, 150,000 Khitans, this is almost the vast majority of their entire clan, which makes Situ Changfeng a little puzzled, why they will fight against each other.
"Yelu Chuxiong, you actually dare to resist the heavenly soldiers, do you want to raise the clan to perish?" Situ Changfeng rode a white jade rhinoceros and asked murderously.
A middle-aged man with many pigtails on his head and a beard on his face smiled wryly and clenched his fists and said: "General Situ, if we don't know what to do, we will definitely fight against the Tang Dynasty, but there is no way to live, so we have no choice." ”
"So much nonsense with him! Datang people, if you want to fight, you can fight, none of us Xi people are afraid of death. A man with black and white patterns on his face and dressed in animal skins roared loudly.
"Yelu Chuxiong, take me three times and don't die, and I promise not to kill the Khitan!" Situ Changfeng pointed at the Tiger Wing Knife and said proudly.
"The jade-faced flying tiger, one word, Yelu Chuxiong sacrificed his life to accompany him." Yelu Chuxiong shouted, his expression was solemn, and he stepped forward with a big knife.
"Kill!" Yelu Chuxiong knew that he was not Situ Changfeng's opponent, so he didn't think about keeping his hand, as soon as he made his move, it was a killing move, and he shouted, and the long knife in his hand slashed down with a blast of wind.
Situ Changfeng didn't underestimate him, he raised his hand to meet him with a knife, but he just went away with his weapon.
"Dang!" With a bang, the blade of Yelu Chuxiong's long knife was cut off.
A move tested the height of Yelu Chuxiong, and Situ Changfeng's backhand was another knife.
Now Situ Changfeng rarely uses some cumbersome moves, every knife is so plain sweeping and vertical slashing, but his knife speed is extremely fast, and the momentum is heavy, no matter where he wants to cut, the opponent only has the power to parry, and there is no anti-mobile opportunity.
Yelu Chuxiong's sword broke with one move, and he couldn't help but be taken aback, and when the second sword came, it was too late to parry, so he hurriedly pounced sideways.
Yelu Chuxiong threw himself to the ground, rolled a few times, and saved his life, but his mount was not so far, only to hear a "poof", and blood rushed out.
"The third move!" Situ Changfeng shouted, jumped up, and swung a knife at Yelu Chuxiong from a distance.
Yelu Chuxiong hurriedly put up his weapons with both hands, and parried Situ Changfeng in mid-air in the way of raising fire to the sky.
With a "click", the weapon in Yelu Chuxiong's hand was broken into two again.
"Poof!" Yelu Chuxiong only felt a strong hit on his chest, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and spurt out a mouthful of blood.
"It's not bad to be able to pick me up three times, Ben will talk about it, you can go." Situ Changfeng danced a knife flower in his hand, slightly dissatisfied with himself.
"Thank you, General Situ!" Although Yelu Chuxiong was injured, when he heard Situ Changfeng's words, he couldn't help but be full of joy, and hurriedly covered his chest and got up and stood up.
"Phew! Rubbish! The patriarch of the Xi people was full of disdain, and he made a loud noise at the injured Yelu Chuxiong.
"Humph! Hei Xi, there is a kind of you to try! Yelu Chuxiong replied coldly.
"Try it!" Hei Xi was provoked by him, and he was about to fight, took a step, stopped and rolled his eyes and said: "You don't need the patriarch to fight, Black Bear, kill him." ”
"Roar!" With Hei Xi's order, a tall figure stood up among the Xi people.
I saw that he had a messy beard, a few white patterns on his face, and his arms and legs were as thick as a woman's waist, and he looked stronger than ordinary bears.
The black bear carried a thick wooden stick and strode towards Situ Changfeng.
"This is the thousand-year-old iron and wood of our clan, which is not afraid of water and fire, and does not move when the knife chops and axes it." Hei Xi looked up proudly and said.
Yelu Chuxiong just sneered at this, he wouldn't tell Hei Xi that his knife was made of white mountain refined copper, black water refined iron, mixed forging, the treasure of the Khitan Zhen clan, and a weapon in the middle of the heavenly level.
In the battlefield, Situ Changfeng was slightly surprised to see such a tall person, but he was more excited, except for Li Yuanba, now it is rare to meet a person who can let him shoot with all his strength, this guy who is the same as a wild man, it seems that his strength is not small.
