Chapter 471: The Fearless Koreans
"It's his own lair, and there are only 1,600 people stationed there, so this Wang Ma is also relieved!"
I heard Xiang Chong say with some emotion, it turned out that Hu Cheng and Hu Yanqing had already introduced some information about Goryeo to everyone, so everyone knew that the Goryeo Wang Jian lineage actually originated in Licheng Port in the lower reaches of the Licheng River.
Not only is there the hometown and Jongmyo of the current king of Goryeo, but it is also the first trading port in Goryeo, and the economy is extremely rich.
"Goryeo has been established for two hundred years, and it has never been attacked by the Liao State and Jurchen in the north, this is already the hinterland, and there are nearly 80,000 Beijing troops in front of Kaijing, so they can't fight here, and it is close to Kaijing, so naturally there is no need to put too many soldiers and horses.
It's just that this Wang Mata never imagined that my Liangshan army would come across the sea to conquer, these three Han (the three tribal alliances in the south of the Korean Peninsula during the Qin and Han dynasties, including Ma Han, Chen Han and Ben Han) barbarians have occupied this place for too long, probably forgetting that this place does not belong to them, right? Zhu Wu said with a smile.
It is also ridiculous to say that in later generations, for various reasons, a certain universe country made up all kinds of history and even myths for this Goryeo, and it was necessary to let Goryeo and Goguryeo have a relationship, indicating that Goryeo was inherited from Goguryeo, and Lee's Joseon was inherited from Goryeo, so the universe country had a ...... for Goguryeo's homeland
However, the Goryeo royal family at that time did not think so much, and clearly stated that the founding of Goryeo was "blessed by the mountains and rivers of Samhan", which shows that although the name of Goryeo was very similar to Goguryeo at this time, it was still clear in his heart and admitted that he was a descendant of Samhan.
Everyone couldn't help but be a little angry when they heard this, so they heard Ou Peng say: "Dashuai, since Licheng Port is so a few people, just let my marine battalion go directly, and the end will ensure that everyone will go directly to Licheng Port to rest." ”
Hearing this, Du Yan and Zhu Wu glanced at each other, and the strategy of pacifying Haidong formulated by the decision-making level of the Liangshan Army was only known to him, Zhu Wu, and Yun Zhi, the instructor of the Beiwei Army.
The two looked at each other and smiled, but saw Zhu Wu shaking his head and said, "No, have you forgotten what the military master's brother explained?" This expedition to Goryeo should be based on the siege of the city and the attack on the heart; I am dignified and upright, and I should pay attention to uprightness, and pay attention to the courtesy before the soldiers. ”
Du Yan also said: "All departments seize the time to rest, do a good job of inspection, I have sent Huyan to take Zhao Guan's "Edict of Rebellion" to Licheng Port to read, let's wait for Goryeo's reaction to say, you are always ready, you are fighting some battles!" ”
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, they landed on this wild beach in the middle of the night for half a day, didn't they want to make a surprise attack on Licheng Port before dawn?
But then I thought about it, there are not many troops in Licheng Port, Marshal Du and Zhu Junshi must have known about it early on, if they really want to make a surprise attack, they will directly drive the ship to the port of Licheng Port to land on the beach, why bother so much?
But they didn't question anything, since there was an arrangement above, then everyone obeyed the order.
But even so, many people still have to think about it, but they really can't figure it out, so they choose to ask people after they go back.
"Mr. Yang, I Xiang Chong is a rough man, you have a lively mind and a lot of ideas, tell me, why didn't the military lord's brother directly attack Lichenggang, and then rush to Kaijing non-stop, just like the surprise attack on Liao?"
Yang Xunqing smiled, according to his careful observation, many of the generals in the Liangshan Army were born in recklessness, and it was enough to be brave and diligent, and they could also share weal and sorrow with the soldiers; There are also instructors who assist in caring for the daily life of the soldiers and carrying out ideological education, so it is not a problem to lead the troops.
Only the wisdom is a little lacking, but fortunately, these people are inspired by the big goal of "doing a great cause, saving the world, and making a name for themselves in history", and they are humbly taught, although they compete with each other, but they also have a harmonious relationship with each other, and they are a good group with high spirits.
"General Xiang, you think, as soon as I come, my Liangshan army is not to leave after the fight, but to completely pacify this place, naturally you can't use the means of sneak attack, but you must be upright, the king's teacher!
Second, why do you want to attack such a small number of people in Lichenggang? The question is, what if you hit it? Do you want to storm the capital again? Is it easier to fight the defenders on the walls, or is it easier to ambush in the field? ”
Xiang Chong scratched his head, and somewhat understood: "Mr. Yang, do you mean to encircle the point and send reinforcements to lure the defenders of Kaijing City out to fight?" ”
Yang Xunqing nodded: "It's roughly this tactic, it depends on the strategy of Marshal Du and Zhu Junshi and everyone's implementation, now what we have to do is to quickly rest and recuperate." ”
Xiang Chong was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately thanked Yang Xunqing and went back to rest and recuperate.
On the other side, not long after, Hu Yanzhuo also took two commanded sailors all the way to the commercial wharf of Licheng Port.
At this time, it was already light, and the Koreans on the dock saw the lights on the ship, and thought that the merchant ship had arrived, and when they got closer and saw the bed crossbows and archers on the ship, they were immediately frightened.
However, after a short period of consternation, these Koreans sent someone to inform the general of the defending army of Reseong Port, and at the same time, someone stood up and questioned the incoming ship loudly.
"Du Yuhou, what is this Goryeo barbarian talking about?"
"Ask us where the soldiers and horses are, dare to attack their king's hometown Licheng Port, and ask us to surrender as soon as possible."
Hu Yanqing couldn't help but be a little happy when he heard that even a small soldier or squad leader was so loud, and immediately replied loudly in Goryeo: "Listen to the Korean people on the other side, go and tell you to guard the future, just say that the angel of the Great Song Dynasty is the best, and tell him to talk back quickly." ”
When the Goryeo people heard that it was the Song people, although the number was absolutely weak, they immediately raised their throats and scolded: "Bold, the Song people are so rude, how dare they raise troops to violate my borders?" If you don't surrender quickly, and apologize again, otherwise our army will come out and kill you to the point of losing your armor! ”
Hu Yanqing had been in Dengzhou for a long time, and often dealt with merchant ships and envoys from various countries in the north, so he knew the extreme and irritable character of the Goryeo people, and his self-esteem was extremely strong.
It is said that many Koreans become very emotional when they are wronged or unfair by the size of a sesame seed. Make up your mind how to get ahead, impress people or regret it for the rest of their lives, even at the cost of making a decision.
Hu Yanqing has heard Korean people talk about this kind of story more than once, but in his opinion, they are all ordinary things in life, and there is no need for such a big reaction.
This is probably the extreme self-esteem brought about by the extreme inferiority complex that the military master said, and finally turned into extreme arrogance.
Such a person will naturally not know to be afraid before being beaten down and disabled, and even be particularly brave and fearless.
Yihu Yanqing didn't bother to talk nonsense with these little minions, and directly ordered a forcible landing.
It was only at this time that these Goryeo soldiers reacted at once, screaming loudly and fleeing.
