Chapter 234: Encampment

Park Eun-jae's intention is actually very simple, it is to stall for time, he is afraid!

But what exactly is he afraid of? This Li Yuanjing didn't know for the time being, it was possible that he was worried that he would find trouble with him, so he ran first to pay respect, or it was possible that there was something here that they couldn't see, and they came too suddenly, and they didn't have time to hide those things.

Of course, these are all speculations.

"Tell me about Silla!" Li Yuanjing beckoned, the imperial court did not know much about the three countries on the peninsula, and it would take a long time to send envoys to maintain it.

This time, Li Yuanjing was accompanied by several officials who had been envoys to the three countries of the peninsula, of course, the positions of these officials were not high, and in fact, it was not so easy to be promoted.

"It has been nearly ten years since the minister last entered Silla, the territory is not small, but it is very poor, and the military strength is relatively weak, there are six provinces in the country, and the king of Silla, Jin Baijing, is very ...... the city" Nyingbu hurriedly said the overview he knew.

The administrative system adopted by Silla is different from that of the Tang Dynasty, but it is generally the same, there are six provinces under the king of Silla, and the six provinces are divided into different counties, but further down, there are the lords of each territory, and the people here have no freedom at all, and they are destined to be born with the result.

King Jin Baijing of Silla is also too lazy to care about these, the royal power still needs these nobles to maintain, it is impossible to cut off the livelihood of the nobles, the only thing he can do is to carve out two Dao as the sphere of influence of the royal family, and the remaining four Dao can give you some benefits, which can be regarded as a compromise.

Of course, the benefits are not given in vain, and every province has to pay tribute to the royal family every year, regardless of whether it is a good harvest or a dead fruit, the tribute cannot be less at all.

The other benefits are the family, which is barely considered an army, but there is a difference between it and the real army, and the minerals in Silla were directly taken over by the imperial court, allowing you to raise the army in the form of a family, but it cannot be a real army, and there are very strict restrictions in terms of the number of people.

This system is very dangerous, but Silla has not yet made any trouble, which just proves that the city is pure and golden.

Ning Bu said a lot, but in the end he pointed out the golden and pure city, which was also vaguely telling Li Yuanjing that what I saw may not be true, and Jin Baijing may not let me see the truth.

"Set up camp on the shore to rest, leave a hundred guards on each boat, and send someone to hold the king's envoy to the king of Silla here!" Li Yuanjing smiled slightly and ordered directly.

Originally, I was going to go straight away, going to Goguryeo first and then to Silla, mainly to stop by.

If the yaw deviates directly to Baekje, it is not a big problem, and it is a big deal to go the route in reverse, but Park Eun-jae's abnormal reaction aroused Lee Won-kyung's interest.

In Datang, he can't do some things as he wants, but here it is not a big problem.

Did the king of Silla come to have a courtesy?

The etiquette system of fart, Li Yuanjing is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, although Jin Baijing is the king of Silla, but legally speaking, he belongs to the county king with a different surname in the Tang Dynasty, if it is really discussed, Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng County, is ranked much higher than Jin Baijing, and Jin Baijing is the last group of county kings at the same level, what is wrong with Li Yuanjing as a prince calling him to come to meet?

It takes time for communication to come and go, and after Li Yuanjing ordered the landing, the people on the fleet became excited, and they had not really been down-to-earth for so many days, and they always felt a little square in their hearts.

Camping is also very particular, not any place can be used for camping, the first place to pay attention to is water, where there is no water, no matter how good the terrain can not camp, if it is the kind of stay overnight and leave, and ensure a safe area is counted.

And where there is water, the upper selection is the underground living water, that is, hot springs, fountains, etc., and the second selection is the river, but this needs to be paid attention to, mainly to prevent whether the upstream enemy army will add something to the water.

As long as the quantity is not large, the final problem will not be too big under the dilution of drinking water, and the most feared thing is to throw the carcasses of tens of thousands of livestock into the river, and the water source will be polluted in an instant, and there is no way to avoid it.

So where there is a river, you should give priority to the upstream, if you don't have it, then you are trying to find a way, and then there is a place with a well, but at this time, you need to pay more attention, add some gadgets to the well, and it will only be a meal to kill you.

The most chosen choice is to camp in a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is no water, and there was once a certain character who was cheating and coaxing to choose such a place, and it was also a high ground, and there was also living water, but under the high ground, it was only a few miles away from them.

Then sadly surrounded by the enemy, defending in this terrain, it is needless to say, the army is originally elite, of course, it is the rhythm of God blocking and killing God, and Buddha blocking and killing Buddha, and then the other party is stunned when he sees this situation, and they can't fight it at all if they stay there.

But if you can't fight, you have to fight, what should you do? They simply don't fight, they surround them, they send people out to get water and kill, the guards are few to kill, and the guards are more to attack together, so that they don't care about the comparison, a few days later, the defender who originally came to cheat and coax has no power to fight because of the lack of water.

So, don't think that fighting a war in ancient times was very simple and easy, just the knowledge of the march turned away most people.

This is also the reason why many soldiers who come up from the grassroots level, even if they are lucky, are at most a brigade commander, and even a captain is very rare.

Those who have little culture but eventually go to a high position are not nothing, but there are really few, and this type of people also have one thing in common, short-tempered, belonging to the type of fighting that says, never talking to you, and this type of walking is to fight fast and slow, taking advantage of your illness to kill you, once you stabilize the formation, and then go to fight with him step by step, at this time he will be a little difficult.

Of course, usually at this time, there will be some cultural people around him who will follow the idea, and the upper echelons will not let the army be buried in vain.

Camping on the shore is not the best choice, the river water is salty, the more you drink, the thirstier you are, the water on the boat can last for ten days and half a month, but those are reserve water, you can not use it.

In the end, two 500-stone troop carriers were sent along the river to go a few miles inland to fetch water on the spot, in order to prevent the Silla people from making trouble, the time to take water was irregular, and all the water had to be boiled, in order to be more cautious, Li Yuanjing even ordered that it must be boiled twice before drinking.

Of course, it is not possible not to go ashore, although it is a naval army, but no one has the experience of sailing, and now the soldiers are like a soft-footed shrimp one by one, and they can stand there to bluff people, if they really can't run off the cliff, they go ashore in order to let them recover their combat effectiveness as soon as possible, just in case.
