However, even if they were challenged by the severe cold, the Sixth Army was firmly in control of the situation in the war in Liaodong, they were waiting for the weather to get warmer, and when the weather warmed up, even if the roads were still muddy after the snow melted, they would not be able to stop the pace of the Sixth Army's advance!

For the war in Liaodong, many generals of the army remained optimistic.

Liaodong must be able to be taken, there is no doubt about this, the puppet Ming Liaodong Huiwang wants to rely on the help of tens of thousands of remnants and aliens, he wants to block the guns and artillery, have sufficient logistics support, and the officers in the army are all systematically trained Tang Army?

Just kidding!

At the beginning, Emperor Zhengde commanded more than 100,000 troops, as well as Tatars, and Altan Khan personally led 50,000 Tatar cavalry to help, but in the end they all ended up in defeat and suicide.

So the only question now is, when will Liaodong be taken!

In this regard, Lieutenant General Lei Wan made a plan: "According to the latest plan of our Privy Council, in the near future, we will continue to increase our maritime forces, provide enough ammunition and other supplies, and when the weather is a little warmer, about April or May, we will launch a new round of large-scale offensive, strive to take Ningyuan, and annihilate about 50,000 thieves in the direction of Quang Ninh!" ”

"Later, we will continue to attack until we capture Liaodong Town!"

"It is expected that in the autumn of this year, we will end the large-scale fighting in Liaodong and readjust the deployment time!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly as he listened, according to the Privy Council's battle schedule, it should be to end the Liaodong War in the autumn, although it is said that the time is relatively long, and it is even longer than the Southwest Campaign, which was launched in the autumn and winter of the previous year, and ended until the spring, but the Tang Empire's investment in these two directions is not equal, and at the same time, it is reasonable to have a few more months due to the influence of geographical location.

After all, the current Tang Empire actually does not have much urgency for Liaodong, and there is not much gap between taking it a few months earlier and taking it a few months later.

In order to avoid making mistakes and to avoid a large number of casualties among the officers and men, it is also acceptable to appropriately slow down the pace of the battle.

After Vice Admiral Lei Wan of the army finished speaking, Vice Admiral Bao Yifen of the Navy also gave an answer to the battle in Liaodong, of course, Vice Admiral Lei Wan of the Army considered from the perspective of the navy, and Vice Admiral Bao Yifen of the navy naturally considered from the perspective of the navy.

Bao Yifen said: "Since the autumn of this year, our navy has begun to organize escort forces to provide full escort for the transport fleet, and in the whole process, there has not been a single case of the transport ship being sunk by the enemy's naval division. ”

"At the same time, our navy is also always on guard in the direction of North Korea, and has repeatedly repelled offensive North Korean sailors and completely controlled the mouth of the Yalu River and the western coast of North Korea."

"Subsequently, our navy will further blockade the Korean Peninsula and even the entire northern coastal waters, and is ready to provide landing cover at any time!"

"In addition, our navy suggests that we can carry out a landing operation in Korea appropriately, seize Jeju Island in the early stage, and directly land on the Korean Peninsula in the middle stage, attack Seoul, and force the Korean Lee clan to withdraw from the coalition with King Hui of Liaodong, or directly annihilate the Lee clan!"

"Subsequently, we can support the local magnates to establish a new Korean kingdom, or simply as a direct colony!"

The Kingdom of Korea doesn't know what medicine it took, and it has always stood with King Hui of Liaodong, and the Military Intelligence Department analyzed that it was estimated that the Li family of Korea was threatened by King Hui of Liaodong and had to do it as a last resort.

Speaking of which, the Korean kingdom is also quite wronged, sandwiched between the King of Liaodong Hui and the Tang Empire, the Tang Dynasty needless to say, is awesome to death, but what about the King of Liaodong Hui, just next to them, listen to the people of the Military Intelligence Department said that in the past two years, King Hui of Liaodong has sent troops into the Korean Peninsula twice, and the army on the Korean Peninsula is vulnerable to the Ming army of Liaodong with complete guns.

But none of this is important to Li Xuan, the important thing is that the current Korean Kingdom is their enemy.

If it's an enemy, kill him!

The Tang Empire was very busy before, and there was no time to deal with the Li Dynasty, and there was still a King Hui of Liaodong at that time!

If you simply send troops to land on the Korean Peninsula, it will be more difficult to have logistics or anything, and you can't get a lot of troops up at once, and your ability to sustain combat is limited.

And before the Tang Dynasty also landed in Lushun on the Liaodong Peninsula, so I didn't bother to deal with North Korea.

But now, the army has entered Liaodong, and King Hui himself is difficult to protect, at this time, it is reasonable to clean up the Korean Kingdom.

Of course, behind this matter is also deliberately promoted by the generals of the military.

Is it a credit to recover Liaodong? It must be a big credit.

But if North Korea is occupied, will the credit be greater? Nonsense, definitely!

In the thousands of years of Chinese history, it is normal to regain lost land, reunify and so on, and no one will say how awesome your dynasty is, because this is what you should do.

But expanding territory is different.

In all dynasties, whether it was for the emperor or for the courtiers, the greatest contribution was to expand the territory.

The emperor likes to expand his territory, because it will make him famous in his previous life, become a wise prince or something, and his courtiers also like it, because the merit is huge.

Seeing that Liaodong is about to be retracted, this large-scale war is about to end, even if there will be a large-scale foreign war in the future, but it is estimated that there will not be in a short period of time.

Take Liaodong and North Korea by the way, so that they can afford their identity as founding generals, and only then can they have the confidence to compete for higher titles with many people.

Now everyone knows that the Son of Heaven is preparing to reward the ministers after the Liaodong Campaign, and the generals and dukes will take them out as rewards.

So many people are thinking about taking advantage of the last opportunity to make a wave of credit, and then make their qualifications look better when they are rewarded.

As for the thoughts of the ministers, Li Xuan did not block it, the Korean Peninsula, in his plan, even if it is not directly annexed, but it must actually be controlled.

For China, the Korean Peninsula is the side of the couch that allows others to sleep soundly!

But he still hasn't figured out how to deal with it!

Directly annexed to the mainland, set up provinces? Or is it a colony, in the form of a territory under the direct jurisdiction of the Cabinet? Or just find a few cats and dogs, re-establish the Joseon Dynasty, and make it a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty?
