Chapter 342: Penglai
"Drill in the whole army! If His Majesty wants them to intimidate the people on the other side, they will not be able to leave. The eldest grandson said with a smile, he didn't understand how he could be shocked across a vast river? The people on the other side probably didn't know that such an army was coming.
"Your Majesty, this is looking for something to send us a winter! Applejack goes to call Bora over for dinner, and talks about how to spend the winter. Cai Cong said with a smile, if it was according to Li Shimin's will, he could already have a premonition of how boring the winter would be.
The eldest grandson Chong set up a hot pot in the county office, and Cai Cong was full of surprise after just one glance.
"Don't laugh, this is still a copy of the tricks you made, Youzhou is located in the middle of nowhere, there is nothing to entertain you, so you will eat it!"
There were stacks of fish and lamb on the table, and as for the vegetables, don't think about it, there are not even dried vegetables in this place.
"Haha, it's the most comfortable to eat hot pot in this weather, or you think thoughtfully, no, the gluttony is moving, I'm welcome." Cai Cong said and continued, picked up chopsticks and knocked on the table twice, picked up a piece of mutton, shook it, and put it in his mouth with sauce.
Changsun Chong smiled when he saw this scene, he is now a hairless phoenix is not as good as a chicken, Cai Cong is so unpretentious, he still treats him as a friend.
"Eldest grandson Langjun, you are too partial, I have been here for half a month, and I don't see you invite me to eat hot pot, this Hou Ye has hot pot as soon as he comes, pity me for eating dry food for half a month!"
Meng Baolai arrived first before he arrived, and it seemed that he was familiar with Changsun Chong, and he dared to joke with the eldest son of the eldest grandson family.
"Haha...... I'd like to treat you to a meal, but you're free! The eldest grandson said with a smile, although he is only an exiled county commander now, but his surname is the eldest grandson, and with this surname, a mere commander of the new army is nothing in his eyes.
"If the eldest grandson says that he wants to make hot pot, what does he care about those rabbits? I've been drinking with you for three drinks a long time ago. ”
Meng Baolai walked in laughing, and saw Cai Cong, who was wrapped like a meat ball, he couldn't play any treasures, and his nose was sour! Why did Master Hou suffer this crime?
"Baolai to meet Hou Ye and say hello to Hou Ye."
"Get up, you're not dead yet! What kind of nose to cry about, it was seen by the people below, how will you lead the troops in the future? ”
"If you don't bring it, you won't bring it, and the little one will go back to you as a guard." Meng Baolai snorted and said, this place is not a place for people, it is extremely wild, the wind blowing from ancient times can cut people's bone marrow like a knife, Hou Ye shouldn't come here!
"Sit down, is there any interest, a dignified viscount said this, you dare to be, I don't dare to accept it!"
Cai Cong said angrily, the most unbearable person to cry and cry, especially such a tough guy.
"What is a viscount? You don't know, Mrs. knew that you were going to Liaodong to cry, and she went into the palace with the young lady several times to cry to her mother, saying that she didn't want any official rank and title, as long as she could make you Chang'an, even if she was a farmer, they were willing. ”
Meng Baolai was drunk like this by Cai Cong, and hurriedly pulled his ass next to the chair, but he still continued to say that if Cai Cong went back, it would be worth his death.
Winter in this place is not for people, and death doesn't care about your rank, and if you don't pay attention, you will become a stiff corpse the next morning.
"Don't say it again, since you're here, you have to bring back the remains of the warriors, how can you let Goryeo humiliate them like this?"
"Okay, what the virtuous brother said is good, how can the dignified Han heroes allow these barbarians to be so humiliated? Although the eldest grandson Chong is not talented, he is willing to do the work of dogs and horses, contribute to the return of the heroes, and wait for your dispatch. ”
"Brother Eldest Sun sat down and said, in that case, let's study how to clean up this group of rabbit cubs after eating."
Cai Cong glanced at Changsun Chong, according to his character, he would say such a thing, it seems that he has changed a lot in Youzhou.
"Master Hou, didn't Your Majesty say that you would wait until the winter passed before you did it? Now is not the best time to send troops. ”
Meng Baolai hurriedly said, he was most afraid of Cai Cong coming to Hu! When the time comes, it is possible that the whole army will be annihilated.
"You have the same idea as the Goryeo people, and they also decided that we would not attack them in such a season. Lao Tzu was about to catch him off guard in this season. ”
Cai Cong said and put the mutton slices into his mouth and chewed them vigorously, and by the way, he put the old mutton cooked in the colander into Meng Baolai's bowl.
"It's right to make dangerous moves, but this Liaodong is full of dangers, not to mention that the army is marching hard, it is a risky march, and the other party is waiting for work, and we should be able to beat them."
Meng Baolai said worriedly, the harsh climate in the Northeast is the natural barrier of Goryeo, Emperor Yang of Sui was dragged to death millions of people, Li Shimin did not kill Goryeo Sentence as a lifelong regret, and before he died, he issued a statement that he wanted future generations to conquer Goryeo.
Cai Cong relied on a mere 20,000 people to fight to Pyongyang, which is not unrealistic, but whimsical, and others only take it as a joke when they hear it.
"So I'm going to cross the Liaoshui, land from Hyunsu, and fight all the way to Pyongyang. Before I came, I had ordered the dockyard to bring the big ship that had been built, and when the time came, we would set out on the ship, so that we would not be too tired. ”
Youzhou hit Pyongyang, that way is far away, Cai Cong doesn't want to count at all, in such a sinister environment, 20,000 people will take Liaodong City, Anshi Prefecture, Daxing City all the way to Pyongyang City, and then 20,000 people will be made dumplings by Goryeo.
He planned to learn from Li Ji to cross the Liaoshui and fight from Xuansu. Meng Baolai and Changsun Chong were stunned for a moment when they heard Cai Cong's bold words, and glanced at each other strangely.
"Master Hou, are you kidding? 20,000 people are going to fight from Hyunsu to Pyongyang? Meng Baolai spit out the meat in his mouth directly, and asked in a stiff tone.
"Brother Xian is joking, right? If you start from Youzhou and go straight to Liaodong City, it will be much easier to go all the way than Xuansu? ”
The eldest grandson Chong asked in disbelief and said awkwardly. Cai Cong was stunned for a moment, he remembered that when Li Shimin personally conquered, Li Ji landed from Xuansu, and he closed the city gate all the way, trembling.
It's a pity that Cai Cong is not omnipotent, he never imagined that among the several armies that Li Shimin personally recruited, Li Ji's road was the most difficult. The soldiers have suffered a lot, and their resentment against the Goryeo sentence is the greatest, so the attack is called a ruthless, and the Goryeo sentence is a ghost crying wolf.
"Is that so? Is there a map for me to see? ”
Cai Cong didn't eat anymore, Meng Baolai immediately ordered someone to spread out the map, Cai Cong looked at it for a while, and immediately exhaled and said: "Send someone to find the fleet immediately, and order them to move forward at full speed and come to pick us up." ”
"Hou Ye think twice! It is easy to land from Hyunsu, but I don't know how many comrades will die all the way to Pyongyang! ”
Meng Baolai saw that Cai Cong was still so stubborn after reading the map, he had a dead heart, Xuansu and Pyongyang are separated by thousands of rivers and mountains, and it is not easy to march in summer, let alone such a cold winter.
"Xuansu must fight, but not now. After the fleet brings us to this position, you can lead people to capture Xuansu, and you don't need to fight other cities, just make an appearance. ”
Meng Baolai looked along Cai Cong's hand, and saw his fingers descending along the Liao River, out of the Bohai Sea, and stopping on the coast. Meng Baolai couldn't help but shout: "This is Penglai? ”
