Chapter 2: The Strategy of Attacking Goguryeo

The next day, the specific strategy for attacking Goguryeo was discussed.

The first is the mobilization of manpower, which everyone has a common opinion: the soldiers of Obifang County will not move. The rest of the counties left the army to prevent theft and security, and the rest were staked on it for a group combat training!

Because the Yalu River runs through the whole of Goguryeo and passes through Wangseong Marudu. So this time the water army will also participate in the war.

Guo Jia, as the chief strategist, was the first to speak, he said: "We sent troops from Liaodong County, Xuansu County, and Lelang County at the same time; If you can mobilize a few generals, you can divide them into several groups of men and horses, and the whole army will be on board to completely destroy the Goguryeo Kingdom! ”

Cheng Yu also spoke, he said: "I suggest that the strategy of this operation is: step by step, three-light policy. Kill, burn, rob. ”

Xi Zhicai shuddered, damn Cheng Yu is always so ruthless. He hurriedly stopped: "No, we can't kill them all, we still need slaves to open mines!" ”

"Then let's take two lights, burn them all, grab them all." Cheng Yu looks very indifferent.

Gongsun Kang smiled bitterly. This Cheng Yu, how can he be so similar to a bandit, or a cultural person.

Li Shanchang, the chief housekeeper, opened his mouth and said: "It doesn't matter if the countryside is burned, if it is burned, it will be burned and it will be used as a fertile field." The city can't be burned, even if it's a county seat. You know, these places will belong to us in the future, and it is unimaginable to spend manpower and material resources to build another city. ”

Cheng Yu smiled slightly and did not speak again.

Therefore, the strategy is determined: step by step, all of them are snatched up!

It means that from the beginning of each army, the areas in charge along the way must loot the population and transport all the property back to Liaodong. Houses in the countryside are burned down so that no fish slip through the net. Although the houses in the city were not burned, all the people were to be taken away, leaving only an empty city.

In order to avoid the scruples of the besieging troops and unnecessary damage to the soldiers of Liaodong, Gongsun Kang ordered: You can use fire oil and explosives to attack the city, even if the whole city is on fire, it doesn't matter!

Gongsun Kang found generals and partial generals who could fight, and brought the generals and strategists to the war room.

The most conspicuous thing in the war room is the sand table in the middle. Now the national topography of Goguryeo has been revealed.

What is surprising is that everything from mountains and rivers to a village and tribe are clearly placed on it.

Looking at everyone's surprised expressions, Gongsun Kang smiled and said, "Goguryeo is the alien race that has dealt with us in Liaodong for the longest time. From the fourth year of Zhongping (187 years), we have been plundering them for 9 years now. We captured 200,000 Goguryeo people, and after brainwashing, we got a lot of information. And over the years, we have installed a lot of fine works in Goguryeo. It can be said that we know every town, every village, and every tribe of Goguryeo! ”

Then, Cao Huachun gave a detailed introduction to the history and current situation of Goguryeo's development, the number of people, the distribution of troops, and the characteristics of operations.

Goguryeo has been harmed by Gongsun Kang in the past 9 years, not only can it not plunder Liaodong every year to replenish itself, but it is also looted by the Liaodong army every month, there are almost no people on the border, the domestic economy has declined sharply, and the comprehensive national strength and combat power are far less than 9 years ago.

Today, the total population of Goguryeo is less than half a million. But all the people of Goguryeo are soldiers, and a population of 500,000 can organize 200,000 soldiers, what a terrible nation!

The original Goguryeo state was centered around Ji'an in present-day Jilin Province and Huanren in Liaoning Province, China, and had little to do with the Korean Peninsula. Goguryeo was transformed from a tribe under the rule of Goguryeo County of Xuansu County of Han Dynasty to a state, and the capital was established as Marudu City. And began to attack Liaodong.

During the reign of King Taejo of Goguryeo during the Three Kingdoms period, Goguryeo quickly expanded from a few early tribal states to the Han River Valley. In 53 AD, King Taejo of Goguryeo set up the five scattered tribes of Goguryeo into five provinces and implemented centralized control. In 56, King Taizu annexed Dongwofu. Later, it annexed part of the territory of Donghao.

In 3 A.D., after Goguryeo moved its capital to the domestic city (now Ji'an County, Jilin Province), it made full use of the natural resources of the mountains and valleys of the Yalu River and Hunjiang River basins to develop production and prosper the economy, and initially formed a social and economic structure with equal emphasis on agriculture, fishing and hunting economy, and progress in handicraft industry.

Goguryeo's military equipment was also quite sophisticated.

Goguryeo offensive weapons can be divided into two categories: copper and iron, long weapons, short weapons, projectile weapons, and defense weapons. Among them, iron weapons account for the vast majority, and copper weapons account for only a very small part. Bronze long weapons include copper spears; Short weapons include bronze short swords, bronze sword darts, and bronze axes; Projectile weapons include gilded copper arrowheads, iron collar copper arrowheads. Iron long weapons include iron spears, iron long knives, and iron Mo knives; Short weapons include iron knives and ring hand knives, triangular iron stabs, and three-hook devices; The projectile weapons include iron hammers and iron hammers, among which the wing holes of the ringing beetles in flight, which are non-lethal and used as alarm signals.

The Sui and Tang dynasties conquered Goguryeo many times, the Song lost the clouds and weakened, and the Khitan and Jurchen rose from the northeast one after another. Ming lost Guan Ning and died in the world. Grandpa Mao has the northeast and the world. You should also know why no matter what dynasty always keeps aiding the dynasty!
