Chapter 1685: Han Yi's Only Answer
Seeing Liu Renyuan's expression, Han Yi couldn't help frowning and asked, "General Liu, are you encountering any difficulties?" β
Liu Renyuan glanced at Han Yi, and then let out a long sigh, "It's that I'm in some trouble." He nodded heavily, and said, "According to the news from the other side, it seems that the Goguryeo side also expected that we would land on the coast near Shicheng, so they are building fortifications on the coast on the Shicheng side to prevent us from landing. β
This is a landing operation, not a gentle landing of Dugu Wuyue, as long as the other party is not stupid, it will definitely prevent you from landing. Han Yi asked, "Then General Liu thinks they can stop us from landing?" β
Liu Renyuan pondered for a moment and said, "This Goguryeo is not as good as Baekje, and their soldiers are also very brave in battle, and it is difficult to land in Baekje as easily. β
Han Yi said: "I remember that General Niu Jinda also landed here and defeated the defenders of Stone City. β
"You're right."
Liu Renyuan nodded and said: "Last time, General Niu Jinda was able to land successfully in Shicheng, although General Niu was like a god with soldiers, but his expedition was only to harass the division, so he caught Goguryeo off guard, but this time it was different, this time Goguryeo has long known that we are pouring out of the nest, to completely destroy them, they will always be ready, and they have also learned the lesson of the last time, plus Goguryeo has given up a decisive battle with us at sea, they have deployed all their forces on the shore, As for the current strength of Laizhou, we want to land from there again, but I am afraid that it will not be easy, unless more troops are sent over. β
The news of the fiasco of the Japanese army must have reached Goguryeo, and Goguryeo will no longer be stupid enough to build a naval division to fight against the Tang naval division, which is equivalent to completely giving up the naval division and cowering on the shore to defend, and this ancient technology is limited, and the fleet landing cannot form effective firepower coverage for cancer, so this needs people to pile up, and now the elite plus the sailors in Laizhou are only more than 20,000, and you want to pile up but the enemy.
The deployment of additional troops will undoubtedly increase the logistical pressure.
For Han Yi, the logistics manager, it is still possible not to increase, try not to increase, in fact, the number of troops invested now is already more than the budget, because the main force of Su Dingfang to destroy Baekje is surplus, and the 100,000 elites are budgeted to destroy Goguryeo, of course, Baekje is also valuable, Han Yi can still calmly dispatch, and asked: "Then can't you land in other locations?" β
"It's not impossible, it's just that Stone City is the best place to land."
Liu Renyuan said and ordered someone to bring the map, pointed to the map and said: "At the beginning, our army fought against Goguryeo, there were three effective landing operations, in addition to Niu Jinda, Xue Wanche and Gu Shenwei had landed in the Yalu waters, but they were blocked during the siege of Bogou City (northeast of Dandong, Liaoning), because the local mountains were dangerous, and Xue Wanche's department was a lone army in depth.
There is also the fact that Zhang Liang landed from Beisha City, although he won a big victory, but he was also weak and could not break through the defense line of Shicheng (northwest of Zhuanghe, Liaoning) and Jili City (Fuxian, Liaoning). But they are all harassed by partial divisions, and they will retreat after the battle, and we are seeking to cooperate with the main force to fight, and based on your grain transportation plan, if we directly choose to land at Yalu Water, first, we will not be able to cooperate with the main force to fight, and second, there will not be too many ships to transport grain and grass for the main force. And if we land in Beisha City, we have to fight all the way to the north, and we have to break through the layers of Beisha City, Jili City, and Stone City in order to join the main force.
Only by landing at Seokseong can we go north and cooperate with the main force to besiege Anseong, an important town of Goguryeo, and go south to cut off the connection between Seokseong, Jili Seong, and Anseong, and tear their defenses apart. β
Han Yi listened and nodded, he didn't think about landing directly from the Yalu River, his grain transportation plan was step-by-step, once he landed on the Yalu River, then he also divided his troops to transport grain and grass, and the terrain of Bogou City was dangerous, it was very difficult for a lone army to break through there, although Beisha City was the closest area to Laizhou, but the terrain of Beisha City was long and narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was very far away from Liaodong City, all the way to the north, and when you hit Shicheng, how many people could be left.
The location they discussed with Li Ji at the beginning was also Stone City, which was the best landing place, no matter what aspect it was, even in Han Yi's plan, the area where Stone City was located was a very important stronghold. First of all, it is the closest to Laizhou, but at the same time it is not the area of the key area of Goguryeo, because this area is prominent, an inverted triangle, if Goguryeo wants to focus on defending here, then their defense line will be elongated, and it is difficult to threaten the core area of Goguryeo, so Goguryeo's policy to defend here is to invest enough troops to prevent the Tang army from landing, and then deploy near Liaoshui to prevent the main force of the Tang army from attacking here, so the Tang army must occupy here, if it cannot land here, Other places are even more difficult.
"If you can't take this area, it's going to be very logistically difficult." Han Yi frowned.
Liu Renyuan nodded and frowned, "It seems that you can only land by force." β
Han Yi said worriedly: "In this battle, the sailor has a very important task, and if he suffers heavy losses from the beginning, it may affect the overall situation, so he must be cautious in this one." β
Liu Renyuan asked, "Do you have a way?" β
What kind of old man am I, --- cheat except to cheat? Han Yi's eyes suddenly flickered a few times, and he said thoughtfully: "If we convince the enemy that we are not landing in Stone City, then the defense of Stone City will definitely be relaxed." β
"Of course, Goguryeo's deployment of troops here is also limited, and this area is surrounded by water on three sides, so it is impossible for them to defend everything." Liu Renyuan said and wondered, "But how can we convince the enemy that we are not landing in Shicheng?" β
"Liar."
This is the only answer that Han Yi can give.
"Liar?"
Liu Renyuan looked stunned.
Han Yi nodded and said, "General, have you ever thought about why our side has just formulated a landing plan, and the Goguryeo side has set up fortifications on the coast of Shicheng. Moreover, we have eyeliner in Goguryeo, and Goguryeo doesn't arrange eyeliner on our side? β
Liu Ren said: "You mean that we will calculate?" β
Han Yi nodded and said: "Yes, in my opinion, since Goguryeo has given up on the sailor, then he will definitely send a large number of spies to pay close attention to the movements of our sailor, so as to make up for his own shortcomings, then we can use this to make the enemy believe that we will land in Beisha City, not Shicheng." Because Beisha City is closest to us, we have enough reason to land here and have them deploy their forces here, so that we can easily land in Stone City. β
Liu Ren said: "If you can deceive them like this, it is the best, but how to deceive them? β
Han Yi said: "I have to think about it carefully." β
But when it comes to deception, Han Yi is an expert, which is what he is best at, so he is very confident in this, and he asked for a lot of information from Liu Renyuan and began to analyze it.
On this day, Han Yi came to the Yuan family's mansion in Laizhou.
"Huh? How did you get here? β
Yuan Vulture was quite disappointed by Han Yi's arrival.
Of course, Han Yi also saw it, and said weakly: "You're here, can I still drive you back?" Besides, I don't have the ability, I want to beat you, I would have beaten you 10,000 times. β
Yuan Vultures said, "It's good that you know. β
Han Yi Zhengse said: "I came today because I want to ask you for help." β
Yuan Vultures waved his hand and said, "Don't come to me about this war, I'm more afraid of death than you." β
"I know this, I want to borrow your people to help me find a few people."
"As an ambassador of pacification, why do you ask me to borrow someone, my people want to protect me." Yuan Vulture Fox said suspiciously.
"Damn! You are such a dick, who can hurt you! Han Yi glared at Yuan Vulture angrily.
You! Yuan Vulture said secretly, of course he didn't need someone to protect him, but he was worried that Han Yi was deliberately transferring his people away, and then coming to fix him, after all, he knew that Han Yi didn't like him here, and now he saw that Han Yi didn't seem to mean that, so he snorted: "If you ask for someone, you ask for the appearance of a person, you are arrogant, how can I promise you." β
Han Yi struggled to squeeze out a smile, blinking, his eyes flashing, "Lord Yuanbao, I beg you to help me, is this okay?" β
The corners of Yuan Vulture's mouth twitched, and he snorted, "That's why I want to beg for help." β
Why do I come to him every time, is it true that all the scoundrels in this world are dead? Han Yi sighed in his heart, but he couldn't help it, this plan was too critical, the people in the Laizhou government didn't trust him very much, and the people of Yuan Eagle were the safest.

There are a lot of people gathered on the dock today, all of them are looking forward to it, waiting for their triumphant division, there is no way, Dugu Wuyue is so handsome, seeing that beautiful face in the prosperous world, it is a kind of enjoyment, originally there are many fans in Laizhou, and now they have won the battle, they are handsome, and they are so good at fighting, God is really eccentric!
"Red Aya, this time Wuyue is majestic, you must be very happy."
Yuan Liehu grinned and smiled at Cui Hongyan on the side.
Cui Hongyan said: "As long as my husband can come back safely, I will be satisfied, this majesty is not uncommon for me." β
Yuan Liehu waved his hand and said: "This is a bad statement, if Wuyue does not return triumphantly without scenery, then what does this mean, it means that Wuyue has lost the battle, and the defeat will be dangerous, so you have to scarce this majesty, the more majestic Wuyue is, the more majestic it is, it proves that Wuyue is safe, otherwise it will ......" β
Cui Hong Ayadai frowned and said, "Can you shut up?" β
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yuan Liehu snorted and said no more.
He and Cui Hongya also grew up together, and they know that Cui Hongyan's temperament is also very strong.
Suddenly, I heard a person on the shore shouting, "Coming, coming." β
I saw the distant horizon, and the shadow of the sail appeared.
There were cheers on the pier.
However, when the fleet approached the dock, everyone's eyes gradually became confused.
Because the ships that came were not sailors, but boatloads of prisoners.
"Han Shangshu, why don't you see any trace of the water master, didn't you say that the water master will return today?"
Yuan Liehu and Cui Hongyan came to Han Yi and Liu Renyuan's side.
Han Yi frowned and said, "I don't know about this. β
After a few more good days, the ship finally came to shore.
Liu Renyuan and Han Yi immediately stepped forward.
"The last general will see General Liu, Han Shangshu."
A general got off the boat and saluted Liu Renyuan and Han Yi with a fist.
Liu Renyuan asked, "Why didn't the sailor come back?" β
The general said: "General Qiyu, when we were halfway through, General Su suddenly sent someone to deliver a message, because the attack of the Silla army was unfavorable, and the remnants of Baekje were defeated, and General Su had to send troops to rescue, resulting in a shortage of manpower, so General Su asked the sailor to go back to help, so Captain Dugu ordered us to escort the prisoners back first, and he led the sailor back to Baekje." β
Han Yi immediately snorted: "I'm really not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm afraid of pig-like teammates." β
When the general heard this, he almost didn't laugh out loud, this description is really apt.
Yuan Liehu was so anxious that he stomped his feet and said: "This Wuyue is really true, so come back first and pick me up!" β
The general was not Yuan Liehu, and he didn't pay attention to him, and said to Han Yi: "In addition, due to the defeat of Silla, the battle situation has become complicated, and General Su hopes that Han Shangshu will transport some more grain and grass over in case of emergency." β
"I'll arrange it." Han Yi nodded.
The people on the dock were disappointed, they waited for so long, they didn't wait for their heroes, they just waited for groups of captives with their heads, this feeling is the same as what happened in later generations, looking at the photo is Lin Qingxia, only to find out that it was Sister Feng when they met, which is particularly embarrassing.
But there was a group of people who were very happy, the merchants, and the landlords of Shandong.
They didn't expect the payoff to come so quickly, and it was free shipping to your door, which was so thoughtful.
These captives are all prisoners of war, in the prime of life, and they are definitely good laborers, but these people are different from the ordinary people of Baekje, they are not easy to control, staying in Baekje is a hidden danger, and there are not so many people to take care of them, so they simply sent them back to Laizhou, and even sent their families, which are all given away for free, because if they don't bring their families, these prisoners of war are outlaws in Datang, and with their families by their side, they will be afraid, and then they will be divided by these landlords, and they can easily digest it.
As soon as these prisoners of war came ashore, Han Yi immediately arranged for someone to collect them, the money had already been paid, and now the government was paying off the debt, and those landlords were very happy, choosing the slaves and maids they looked at, and then bringing them home. Han Yi is very relieved about this, because these landlords and businessmen may not be able to do anything else, but let them turn people into slaves, they are all experts and have rich experience.
Thousands of prisoners of war and their families were instantly divided.
In this way, the slave and maid policy can be well implemented, and these landlords and merchants who buy Baekje slaves and maids will not be willing to pay the slave and maid tax, and with them taking the lead, then the pressure on Shandong will be much reduced.
Han Yi's plan is also a link, give you a little, I will ask for a little, in fact, this is also a deal.
