Chapter Eighty-Three: Back to Cangzhou

Dou Liweng took out a piece of leather paper from his arms, and Xu Qing took a closer look, and it turned out to be a map. To Xu Qing's surprise, this map was seven or eight points similar to what Xu Qing had seen in later generations. You must know that there is no remote sensing technology at this time, it all depends on a pair. The legs measure the long distance, and the hat is worthy of walking in the old rivers and lakes of this geographical circle.

Dou Liweng took it and looked at it, and said slowly: "Look at the history of the assassination, this is where the Goguryeo naval army is located, two days ago, when I was traveling next to this, I found that the people in this water village are going to nine or eight out of ten!" ”

"Oh? Are you trying to say that they came to the Bohai Sea by sea? Xu Qingxin said, Goguryeo has only come from the sea for a day or two, why haven't I heard the news of the invasion at this time.

"Judging from the information in the hands of the little old man, it is indeed ......"

Xu Qing paced back and forth, his thoughts uncertain, and at this moment, a rider flew in the distance and shouted, "Urgent!" Urgent! Xu Gongzi! ”

"Young Master Xu! Nanhai Mansion highlights thousands of Goguryeo people, and now that Nanhai Mansion has been captured, the king asked Xu Gongzi to beware of Goguryeo sneak attacks! ”

Nanhai Mansion is the Liaodong Peninsula, because of the south facing the sea, so it is named Nanhai Mansion. At this time, Xu Qing scolded in his heart: What a Goguryeo person, he dared to come!

But the hat man laughed: "Look, I'm right, right? Xu Thorn History, it's not too late to make amends! ”

"How's the situation in Nanhai Mansion?" Xu Qing asked with concern.

"The Goguryeo people plundered and sailed away."

Now Xu Qing is worried about two things, one is what is the situation of his own three big ships. When the ship was parked at the beginning, it was parked in Nanhai Province, although it was remote, Xu Qing was still worried that the ship would be discovered by the Goguryeo people. If the ship is gone, he can only go home by land, and when the time comes, passing through Youzhou and passing through so many states and counties, the news that he has taken troops abroad without permission will definitely cause an uproar.

The second worry was that the Goguryeo people would not advance by land and water. If tens of thousands of people forcibly cross the Yalu River, Xu Qing does not dare to guarantee that he can defend it, the key is that the group of state soldiers under his command who can go home and hold their children in peace of mind, this time...... Alas......

"Thorn history? History of thorns? ”

"Oh......" Dou Liweng's voice pulled Xu Qing back to reality, and Xu Qing asked, "What are your conditions?" ”

"The Bohai Sea, Silla is bounded by the Daedong River, and the river is drawn and ruled."

The meaning of this condition is that the north of Pyongyang belongs to the Balhae Kingdom and the south to Silla. Xu Qing looked at Dou Liweng and thought in his heart, this Silla man seems to be the stick man of the later generations, do you want to help him? When he first came to Liaodong, Xu Qing beat the Goguryeo people as a stick, but now he helps beat Goguryeo with a stick.

"Are you so sure you can destroy Goguryeo?" Xu Qing asked rhetorically. Although the Goguryeo people have experienced a great defeat, they still have strong troops in other countries, and it is still feasible to say that Balhae and Silla contain it, but it seems a little difficult to say that they will destroy other people's countries.

"Well, I'm fifty percent sure......" Hatsa held out a hand.

"Only fifty percent? I see, three percent is less than ......," Xu Qing waved his hand.

"How do you know if you don't try, destroying Goguryeo, that's a great cause for a thousand years!"

"No, I can let Bohae and Silla work together to contain Goguryeo, and after ten or twenty years, maybe I can eat him."

"Alas...... Okay, okay, as long as it can solve the danger of my Silla country, it's okay......" Dou Kasa Weng's spirit suddenly turned into an old state.

"Why don't you tell us about your plans?"

"Attack the port, burn the grain!" Pointing to the map, Doga-ong said, "This is the granary of the Goguryeo people, and this is the port, as long as I can bypass his land troops and attack his granary directly from the sea, I will succeed!" ”

"It's just a granary, so what if you burn it?"

"I don't know that this granary is the largest granary of the Goguryeo people, and the 30,000 people who defended Silla Baekje and the people in the surrounding passes all depend on the food supply here." Dou Liwen said carefully: "We wanted to attack before, but we couldn't send a large number of troops, and the small troops couldn't help......

"Well, it's okay to ......," Xu Qing asked, "But now that the Goguryeo port is empty, why do you bother to ask Bohai for help?" ”

"Just to attract the attention of the Bohai people, we can be more successful, and besides, look at the history of the assassination again......" Dou Liweng pointed to the map and continued: "Look here, this is a big grain-producing county of the Goguryeo people, if we can attack this place, at least for five years, the Goguryeo people will not have the strength to send troops!" ”

"We can cooperate on this, and I don't want anyone else to know about it!"

Five years, that's not bad, Xu Qing nodded and agreed. After discussing the specific details, Xu Qing decided to build a water village built by the Goguryeo people on the opposite side and put the Yalu River in the hands of Bohai. If you only hit the opposite water village, it will not cause too many casualties, which is also what Xu Qing hopes.

After conquering the water village, Xu Qing served as a suspicious soldier by the Yalu River, attracting the attention of the Goguryeo people, and the Silla people attacked the granary. As for attacking that large grain-producing county, it will be left to Dark River to do.

For three days, Xu Qing made a raft, collected fishing boats, smuggled a thousand people as ambushes, and a thousand people crossed by force, and the other side of the river was taken in a few days. Gao Cong was shocked, and hurriedly dispatched troops, and the dark river was dispatched to destroy the large grain-producing county, and burned all the stored grain. The next day, the port of Goguryeo was occupied by Silla, the granary was burned, and the rations of more than 30,000 soldiers were in short supply.

On the other side of the Yalu River, Xu Qing half-hard and half-soft drove some Goguryeo people who were not too "Goguryeo" to the Bohai Sea and arranged to live around the town's border fort.

At this time, the broken red dust came with good news. When the Goguryeo people went ashore again to plunder, they were dragged by the local soldiers and civilians, and Duan Hongchen personally led the troops to recruit and break their army.

In three days, the Goguryeo people sued for peace, lost silver and ceded land, and the 30 miles south of the Yalu River were counted as the Bohai Sea.

Breaking Hongchen agreed, and asked the Goguryeo people to return all the Bohai people who had been captured a few years ago. The two countries made peace. The Goguryeo people took the time to drive out the Silla people and relieved themselves, but the national prestige was no longer there. A few days later, the Goguryeo king Gao Yuan collapsed, and Gao Cong officially ascended the throne. He came to Bohai with a letter of resignation, calling himself "elder brother" and taking Bohai as a brotherly country. The Silla people also sent a letter of state to come here and formed an alliance with Balhae.

From Silla to Dahe, these Liaodong countries are stepping up to restore their national strength, and in the next three years, they can be regarded as peaceful.

In the fort on the edge of the town, Xu Qing, Xu Qi, Duan Hongchen, and Huang Shimei sat together.

Xu Qing took a plump and juicy pear, rubbed it on his clothes and took a bite, and then said: "In a few days, it will be August 15 again, I have to rush back in advance......

Breaking Hongchen was clear, and said to Xu Qi: "If you want to go with him, just go......"

Xu Qi lowered her head and fiddled with her hair, Xu Qing knew that she was reluctant on both sides, so she said, "Broken Hongchen, I have a plan, do you want to hear it?" ”

"Oh?"

"I want to open a sea caravan between Cangzhou and the Bohai Sea. The two places are close, and the sea route is very fast, and when Xu Qi wants to go back to Bohai, he will go back to Bohai, and if he wants to go to me, he will go to me. Xu Qingdao: "And the key is that after the opening of the sea route, Bohai can easily get the products of the Central Plains, and I can also get cheap grassland goods in Cangzhou. ”

Duan Hongchen and Xu Qi's eyes suddenly lit up. Huang Shimei said with a smile: "The Cangzhou Chamber of Commerce can open a branch in Bohai, and then the caravan outside the Saiwai will be available to us." ”

"That's a good ......"

The three of them agreed, and gave Xu Qing a few big ships that he had snatched from the Goguryeo. A boat for sheep, a boat for cattle, a boat for horses, a boat for dried meat and dairy products, and a boat for furs. Filled with several ships and with a very deep draft, they set off from the Bohai Sea and headed east.

Xu Qing was worried about the three ships that were discovered by the Goguryeos, but they didn't. Three large ships carrying 2,000 homesick people and 1,000 clay pots.

Those cattle and sheep, except for the horses, Xu Qing gave all the state soldiers who came to Bohai. Whoever came out was a cow, a sheep, a pile of jerky. Wounded, two. Those who sacrificed were given three portions to their families.

People can't be resurrected after death, and Xu Qing can only make up for his "selfish" dispatch this time materially.

Cangzhou:

"Cher, are you thinking about him again?" Xiaoyue saw Xun Xue'er looking at Xu Xiaoqing in a daze, and naturally knew that she was thinking about Xu Qing.

"Xiaoyue ......" Xun Xue'er smiled: "You don't want to?" ”

"I don't want to, what's so good about him?" Xiao Yue said slightly stubbornly, but her face was full of spring, which had already exposed her inner thoughts.

"Hehehe......" Xun Xue'er said: "I have a feeling that he is already on his way home." ”

"Heart-to-heart?" Xiaoyue didn't believe it, but said with envy to Xun Xue'er.

"No, because tomorrow is the fifteenth feast." Xun Xue'er smiled: "Xu Lang said, on the fifteenth day, the family will be reunited, I believe he will do it." ”

After speaking, Xiao Yue and Xun Xue'er looked at the moon in the sky, which was already very full.

Changan:

"Oh? You said the person behind that organization was Xu Qing? ”

The person who spoke was none other than Li Shimin.

"That's right, and this person's identity is so suspicious that it seems to have jumped out of a stone."

The person who spoke was also a person Xu Qing recognized, and if Xu Qing saw it, he would definitely be shocked. This person is Ouyang Zhendong.

"How?" Li Shimin asked.

"In the fourth year of Wude, this person was brought into the army by an old soldier, and he used the saltpeter ice method to enter the Holy Eye...... And that one is called the Dark River Organization, as if it also appeared out of thin air......"

"Okay, okay, you go down first......" Li Shimin rubbed his head, he also recognized Xu Qing, and he originally thought that Xu Qing was just a person with many wonderful ideas. Saltpeter ice method, horseshoe, fried rice...... Later, this Xu Qing had another identity of "Wenzong", which surprised him. But now, Xu Qing has another identity as the leader of the dark forces, and such a person can't even investigate his specific identity.

Li Shimin was beating the drum in his heart, Xu Qing's identity was not simple, it was someone who did it on purpose.

"Big brother, or old man?"
