- Goryeo Kaegyo

Wang Yu was wearing a royal robe, looking at His Royal Highness's ministers with a gloomy face, and the ministers below looked at their noses and noses, their noses and hearts, their heads were lowered, and they didn't say a word.

"Now that the war in Haizhou has been going on for a long time, if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will make the country turbulent, don't you Aiqing have any strategy to share the worries of the widows?" Wang Mata glanced at the past one by one, but his heart was cold, most of these ministers are inextricably linked with the local nobles, this time it is to attack those local nobles, these people are not working.

"It's hateful that Wu Aiqing is sick, otherwise where do you need to worry about this matter!" Wang Yu shook his head and sighed.

The so-called Wu Aiqing is Wu Yanzhong, the deputy marshal of Yin Qian in the past, because Yin Qian has passed away, making him the first military general in the Goryeo Army, and the official worships Tai Lieutenant.

As soon as he said this, one person couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "Don't worry, the king, those rebellious people I regard as a chicken, a dog, as long as the king gives me a god horse, a god step, a demon subduing and other armies, it only takes one month, and it can be wiped out!" ”

Wang Yu looked down and saw that it was Wang Zizhi, and couldn't help frowning.

This Wang Zizhi is also one of the generals of the Eastern Expedition in the past, and he has some experience in military formations, but what makes the prisoner muttered is that the family of this Wang Zizhi is the Haizhou Wang family, and the place of this rebellion is Haizhou.

"Wang Aiqing has the intention to kill the thief, and his heart is commendable, but Lord Wang is over fifty years old, and he can't bear to ask you to lead troops to fight..."

Wang Zizhi suddenly had tears in his eyes, and staged a good show of gentlemen and ministers.

Li Ziqian snorted secretly, Wu Yanzhong is ten years older than Wang Zizhi, why didn't he just see you say that you couldn't bear it, and it was not that he didn't want the aristocratic power like himself to expand again.

In the end, nothing came out of the court, and everyone had their own thoughts, wondering whether they could benefit from the turmoil.

Li Ziqian returned to his residence, thinking about this matter, and felt that the war situation in Haizhou could indeed not be delayed any longer, so he wrote a letter and sent someone to Haizhou as soon as possible.

- Haizhou

Haizhou, formerly known as Guzhu, belongs to the Han Dynasty with Fang County, is only two hundred miles away from the capital of Goryeo, at this time here gathered tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, these soldiers and horses are divided into two camps, one side is stationed in the mountain, and the other side is grinding fists and guns.

Goryeo is mountainous, but most of the mountainous areas are located in the northeast and southwest of Goryeo, and most of the northwest and southeast are plains.

And Haeju, which is a small number of the counties in Goryeo, is mostly plain states and counties, and there are very few mountains, making it easy to attack and difficult to defend here, and the cities of Goryeo are mostly less repaired except for the border cities located in the north, so the local aristocratic army of Haeju pulled most of the army to the main peak next to the city.

The commander of the Goryeo army under the mountain is named Tuo Junjing, Tuo Junjing is Li Ziqian's confidant general, this time he led an army of 50,000, and the Haizhou rebel army of 40,000 has been in a stalemate here for more than a month.

Tuo Junjing is over forty years old, with a long beard and a broad face, wearing a battle robe, looking at the map on the wall and thinking a little. In the big tent, there are still several generals who are whispering something.

At this time, a person walked in and arched his hand and said, "Dutong, open a letter from Beijing!" ”

Tuo Junjing turned around and said, "Oh? Show it to me. ”

Takuto took the letter, opened it, looked at it, and then threw it into the brazier.

"All of them... This is? A general next to him asked in confusion.

"At the court meeting two days ago, the king once again expressed his dissatisfaction with the war on our side, and also talked about Lord Wu, and the king Zizhi also recommended himself at the court meeting." Tuo Junjing briefly described the time in the letter.

"That Wang Zizhi also doesn't know how to lift, and he still wants to rob us of military power!"

"That's it, sooner or later, I'll have to find an opportunity to destroy him!"

The generals below insulted Wang Zizhi one after another, as for Wu Yanzhong, he was the first person in the living Goryeo army, and no one dared to say anything about him.

"Dutong, are we going to hurry up and attack the mountain?" A military general stood up and asked.

"It's not time to attack the mountain yet, and our losses will be great."

"And there is still rebellion in Haizhou City, if we attack the city with all our might, they attack the rear, and attack from both sides, I am afraid that there will be a worry of defeat, after all, we are from other places, and the location here is not in me, don't forget General Liu's experience!"

Immediately, some people objected, and even pulled out the previous defeat of the army and said that they couldn't attack the mountain now.

Tuo Junjing looked at the map on the wall, the troops in his hand were actually not much more than the Haizhou army, even considering that there were many sailors in the Haizhou army and would not go ashore to fight, the Haizhou army also had more than 30,000 people, and there were 20,000 people on the opposite Shouyang Mountain.

Of the 50,000 people in Tuo Junjing's hands, less than 20,000 are the central army, and the rest are local armies mobilized from surrounding states and counties.

Don't think that Tuo Junjing is the military general of the Li family, the biggest aristocratic force in Goryeo, so he will not be hostile to other aristocratic armies, and there are people who want to be the first nobleman in Goryeo.

Tuo Junjing was reluctant to take risks.

"Dutong, there is a word below, I don't know whether to talk about it or not." At this time, a master who was sitting next to him got up and said.

Tuo Junjing looked at it and remembered that this person's name was Shen Caihao, a Buddhist lay disciple who came to ask to join the army, and he also held a letter of recommendation from a well-known monk in Xijing, Jingxin, and because of this, he was taken by Tuo Junjing to make the main book. Originally, he just wanted to make a good friend of the pure heart, and he didn't really think that this young monk could surprise him.

"What do you think, tell me about it." Taku Junjing said to Shin Chae-ho.

Shin Chae-ho looked at the crowd and didn't speak.

Tuo Junjing waved his hand and said, "These are my confidant brothers, just say it." ”

In a word, all the generals in the tent feel warm.

Shen Caihao stood up and said slowly, "Lord Dutong, compared with the Haizhou army, our army has more soldiers and has a steady stream of assistance, and Haizhou is just a lonely city, which is our advantage, but the Haizhou army is afraid of being punished for rebellion, so it is united, and our army is uncertain, which is our disadvantage." ”

Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads when they heard this, and the facts were indeed as Shen Caihao analyzed.

"The way of war lies in promoting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, combining the right time, place and people to win, the rebellion in Haizhou lies in the sea ban, and I Goryeo is surrounded by the sea on three sides, I don't know how many people are contaminated in it, if Haizhou can't be attacked for a long time, it will inevitably lead to other ambitious people taking the opportunity to start an incident, which is why the king is so anxious."

"yes... If you are not in a hurry, we can continue to deploy troops and send generals, and attack slowly, there is no grain and grass in Haizhou, and there are no reinforcements outside, so we must not defend for a long time. "As Li Ziqian's general, Tuo Junjing has some strategic vision.

Shen Caihao arched his hand and said, "What Lord Dutong said is in line with the way of soldiers, since our army can't fight for a long time, then it is inevitable to go to war, Dutong, if you don't fight again, this tens of thousands of troops will be handsome, and that is the biggest loss for the county lord!" ”

The words are very straightforward, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with this, or these people take it for granted that the army is handsome.

"Yes, if we don't fight again, I'm afraid that these tens of thousands of troops will really fall into the hands of Wang Zizhi." Tuo Junjing made up his mind and said, "Since that's the case, then fight!" ”

Now that the boss has made a decision, the other generals don't dare to say anything, just talk about how to attack the mountain or the city, Tuo Junjing listened to it for a while, and said that it was just two routines of besieging the mountain and besieging the city or besieging the city and attacking the mountain, and it made sense, Tuo Junjing looked at Shen Caihao and asked, "Does Master Shen have a high opinion?" ”

Shen Caihao didn't think about it, and said directly, "The first evil of the Haizhou rebels is Zheng Wancai of the Zheng family, he is guarding in Haizhou Town at this time, and the guard of Shouyang Mountain is Zheng Wancai's younger brother Zheng Wanhua. ”

Tuo Junjing's eyes lit up, and he said, "This Zheng Wancai and Zheng Wanhua are brothers, as the saying goes, it's not easy to be close to each other." ”

Shen Caihao smiled: "In the face of life and death, how can you come to be a brother? ”

Tuo Junjing finally decided to adopt Shen Caihao's strategy, and in the next few days, every day people blew gongs and drums and carried wine and meat up the mountain, and for fear that others would not know, holding a tall sign, telling the people around him that he was going to comfort Zheng Wanhua on Shouyang Mountain, and regardless of whether Zheng Wanhua accepted it or not, the things were placed outside the camp and left, Zheng Wanhua felt that there was a conspiracy here, not only did he not accept it, but he also burned everything, but he controlled himself, but he couldn't control the people below, The soldiers below are all from poor people, and they have never eaten any wine and meat, where can they endure such a temptation, and gradually, some people are greedy for ink and wine and meat are privately divided.

The most important thing in the war is morale, originally most of the defenders on Shouyang Mountain had the will to defend to the death, but now they are so made to only think about when to send wine and meat below, but to say that morale is leaked, it is not on this Shouyang Mountain, but in Haizhou City, not far away.

I thought that there was only one way after the rebellion, but now I found that the people on Shouyang Mountain not only have the wine and meat given by the imperial court, but also may not be punished, and they are guarding Haizhou City, not only suffering from the wind and sun every day, but also may die because of the next war.

Probably only those fishermen and people who can't survive because of the forbidden sea still have high morale, but these people don't know tactics and martial arts, so they are not the decisive force.

Tuo Junjing watched that in less than ten days, the morale inside and outside Haizhou City had changed so much, and while he was full of praise for Shen Caihao, he began to dispatch troops and prepare to storm Haizhou City.

When a new round of war in Haeju City was about to break out, Jeju Island ushered in a large fleet of ships. These ships were all wearing the sun and moon flags, which were exactly the same as the flags on Jeju Island, and looking at these fleets, the people and merchants of the four countries on Jeju Island couldn't help but talk about it, and re-evaluated the strength of Jeju Island again.
