"Hooray! Banzai! Hooray! ”

At the mouth of the Beishui Sea, countless Sui warships docked again, this time the warships were not loaded with supplies, but countless elite soldiers, in the sun, the Goguryeo people in the city could see clearly, and every Sui army who came down from the ship was wearing fine armor and shining in the sun.

It is now August of the fifth year of the Great Cause, and the hottest weather has passed, in such weather, wearing armor will still be uncomfortable, but the soldiers who got off the ship all stand upright, when a large ship of 8,000 materials docks, without waiting for the people on the boat to come out, the Sui army below has already let out a huge cheer.

The Goguryeo soldiers in the city only felt that the shouts of the Sui army below were deafening, and their hearts were discolored, and some Goguryeo soldiers who could understand Chinese were even more panicked in their hearts: "Could it be that the Great Sui Emperor is here?" ”

They guessed correctly, it was indeed Yang Yong who came, and after staying in Liaodong New City for three months, Yang Yong couldn't stay any longer, so he still took the Praetorian Guards to board the big ship and came to the city of Pyongyang.

Although it can be said that it can inspire the army, but for the generals who command the battle, they never want the emperor to appear on the front line, even if the emperor himself has a superior military strategy, because that not only means that the command will be interfered with by the emperor at any time, but also to allocate a part of the army to ensure the safety of the emperor, otherwise the emperor may be punished as long as he is frightened and wins the battle.

Yang Yong knows the truth very well, although it is said that before the Great Sui was established, due to the lack of unity in the Central Plains, there were not a few monarchs who drove the personal expedition, from the recent point of view, Emperor Wu of Zhou did the best, repeatedly personally charged into battle, and led his subordinates to win one victory after another, the worst was the queen of Qi, the first personal expedition took the lead in fleeing before the army was divided, resulting in the defeat of the front-line army. As a result, he died and the country was destroyed.

It's just that now that the Great Sui has ruled the world for nearly twenty years, as a monarch, Yang Yong does not need to learn from Emperor Wu of Zhou to charge into battle, of course, he can't learn from Chen Houzhu to take the lead in escaping, Yang Yong's intention to stay in the rear is to ensure that the army's grain route is unblocked, to eliminate worries for the front-line soldiers, and to prevent the front-line soldiers from shrinking because of their own safety.

Intellectually speaking, it is best for Yang Yong to stay in Liaodong New Town, like this. With the title of the imperial conquest, the emperor is absolutely safe, and the fast is half a year, and the slow is a year, and Goguryeo can be captured. Then you can return triumphantly.

It's just that in Liaodong New Town, every time he sees the military report on the front line, Yang Yong is so uncomfortable that the original Liaodong City makes He Ruobi burn the goblins. Now it was just a wooden city, and although it became lively due to the presence of the army, the emperor did not even have a place to relax. In order to show that we share weal and sorrow with the soldiers. The emperor not only did not bring his concubines, but also did not even bring any singers, and the only pleasure was to go out of the city to hunt, but after several months of hunting, Yang Yong finally got tired of it, and finally decided to come to the front line.

Due to the opening of the sea route between Zhuojun and Liaodong, Pyongyang. The army could receive food and grass from the sea. The status of Liaodong City has dropped a lot, and it doesn't matter if the emperor leaves with a large army. Even if the ministers objected, they could not come up with much reason, and after months of sailing, the safety of the sea route was certain, and in the end the ministers had to compromise.

Yang Yong emerged from the top of the battleship, his face showed a trace of exhaustion, and sailed on the ship for several days, although the ship he was on was the largest warship of the Sui Army, but it was only a thousand tons of tonnage in later generations, and it was inevitable that the sea would be turbulent, after becoming the emperor, Yang Yong gradually pampered himself, no longer practiced martial arts as diligently as the prince, and his physical fitness slowly began to decline, and he didn't feel anything about boating on the inland river, and Yang Yong felt a little dizzy soon after the boat entered the sea, but fortunately, the previous bottom was still there, and he didn't vomit. By the next day it was back to normal.

Looking at the countless sergeants below who looked up at him and cheered, Yang Yong couldn't help but wave his hand downward, and suddenly the cheers became more enthusiastic, and the Goguryeo soldiers on the city of Pyongyang heard two tremors, the army has been besieging the city for more than two months, and the emperor of the Great Sui is here, I am afraid that the siege will be launched soon.

If the Goguryeo soldiers were not afraid of the Sui army attacking the city at the beginning, now their confidence is becoming less and less, besieging the city for several months, the reinforcements in the south can only sigh across the river, but the reinforcements in the north are nowhere to be seen, and now Pyongyang has become an isolated city, and the people in the city are panicking, both afraid that the Sui army will continue to besiege it, and afraid that the Sui army will attack the city immediately.

Yang Yong pressed it with his hand, and the cheers gradually quieted down, looking down from the boat, there were dense heads below, if he could say a few words of encouragement to the sergeants below, the morale of the officers and soldiers below would definitely rise a lot, but unfortunately there was no amplification equipment, Yang Yong couldn't hear the sound of the battleship even if he shouted through his throat, so he had to dispel his thoughts, waved his hand several times below, and left the side of the ship.

The big ship has docked, Yang Yong has no intention of going ashore for the time being, there is only a tent on the shore, it is much worse than this battleship, the only uncomfortable thing on the ship is the wind and waves, now the ship has entered the shell water from the sea, and is no longer afraid of any wind and waves, the slight shaking of the ship makes people seem to take a rocking chair, very comfortable, this battleship can only be temporarily used as Yang Yong's palace.

A group of neatly dressed generals in heavy armor boarded the imperial ship, and they were the main generals of the Sui army in the besieged area, Zhou Fashang, Zhou Luoyu, Yu Zhongwen, and Li Hun......

After Yang Yong captured Liaodong, the original plan was to be made by Zhou Fashang, Zhou Luoyu's water army broke into the capital of Goguryeo, and if it could attack, it would attack, and if it could not attack, it would temporarily surround Pyongyang, and wait for He Ruobi to lead the army to attack the city together, the plan did not change quickly, due to the resolute resistance of the Goguryeo water army, the water army lost the opportunity to attack, Zhou Fashang, Zhou Luoyu and the two had to wait to join He Ruobi's army.

He Ruobi's army was originally scheduled to arrive by land in 20 days, but the Sui army still underestimated the determination of the Goguryeo people to resist, He Ruobi's army was blocked in Anshi City, Anshi City Guard Yang Wanchun with 5,000 troops, even blocked He Ruobi's 120,000 army for half a month, He Ruobi simply gave up the idea of meeting with Zhou Fashang, besieged Anshi City without attacking, and the army was divided into several roads and swept to other cities.

This strategy has been effective, Shi Wansui, Yuan, Wei Wensheng, Han Hong, Yuan Wei and others each led an army, and allocated dozens of cities of Goguryeo size, He Ruobi only sent Yu Zhongwen and Li Hun to Pyongyang into Beijing, the offensive of the Sui army made Goguryeo north of Pyongyang everywhere, and could not send a single soldier to Pyongyang to reinforce Pyongyang, Zhou Fashang also got new instructions from the emperor to surround Pyongyang without fighting, and waited until now.

"Your Majesty, the generals of all armies have arrived on the ship, waiting for the emperor's reception." Zhao Nian, the chamberlain, reported.

"Let them come up."

"Yes."

After a while, a burst of footsteps sounded, and Zhou Fashang and others had already climbed to the top floor and bowed to Yang Tong: "The ministers knock on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"Everyone, love Qing Ping."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Come, sit down."

Hearing the emperor's instructions, Zhao Nian hurriedly commanded the soldiers on the ship, moved chairs for the generals, and everyone thanked them again, before they sat down diagonally.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have been stationed under the city for several months, and you have worked hard."

Zhou Fashang and the others hurriedly got up again: "The ministers are incompetent, and the army has not done an inch after the siege for three months, so I dare not say that it is hard." Yang Yong waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down again before saying, "It was my idea to besiege Pyongyang with a large army, and I didn't let you attack the city, so how can I say that I am incompetent?" If I continue to talk about it, I will not be incompetent. ”

Zhou Fashang was taken aback, and was about to get up, Yang Yong pressed down with his hand to prevent Zhou Fashang from getting up, and said: "I know that Aiqing has no such intention, this matter does not need to be explained, I ask you, if you continue to besiege it, how long will Pyongyang City run out of food?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Goguryeo people have escaped from the city one after another these days, but most of them are poor farmers in Goguryeo, and the minister has also got some clues after interrogation, Pyongyang City is rich in grain reserves, and it is estimated that it will take a year to surround and run out of grain."

At present, although the Sui army has defended all the gates of Pyongyang and dug trenches, it is still difficult to completely block Pyongyang's contact with the outside world, and the Sui army is not afraid of Pyongyang's contact with the outside world.

"A year?" Although Yang Yong was prepared, he was still depressed by this number.

Seeing that the emperor was not satisfied with this number, Zhou Fashang asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you want to attack the city?" ”

Yang Yong reacted: "No, continue to surround." ”

At present, there are copper mines on the prairie in Dasui, and there are countless grains in the country, compared to injuring tens of thousands of people, it is not impossible to surround it for a long time, not to mention that it is already a great achievement to capture Goguryeo in one year.

However, the army is not idle under the city, compared to the tens of thousands of Goguryeo soldiers hiding in the city of Pyongyang, the Goguryeo army on the south bank of Beisu is a piece of fat, and now it is time to take them.
