Chapter 635: Fatal Blow
The fatal blow to the Xi people was Ao Balie's harrier battalion, they disguised themselves as the Tatar people and went deep into Nurul Tiger Mountain for more than 100 miles, attacked the tribe of the Xi people in Qingluanling, rescued more than 2,000 slaves held by the Xi people, plundered more than 3,000 Xi women, burned the pastures in the valley to block the enemy, and swaggered out. Su Dingfang and Guo Qing couldn't help but shake their heads when they arrived at Ao Balie, it's okay to kill the women, doesn't this affect the speed of the march?
Ao Balie raised his head and said: "There are so many men and women in the Hexi Army, and they are reluctant to kill. But thank you, if you hadn't annihilated the main force of the Xi clan, it would be really hard to say. However, the more than 2,000 people rescued were all people with quite good physical fitness, and they were definitely good at fighting. ”
In less than ten days, the Xi people were invaded more than ten times, and lost more than 6,000 people, and with the loss of 20,000 people and more than 10,000 civilians, the population of the Xi people was less than 40,000.
The Khitan Duhuo Department was frightened, and they didn't dare to go to Raole City, so they took the initiative to form a tribe with the Dahe clan; Dahe Duluo had no choice but to write to Tuli, saying that Raolecheng was not suitable for Khitan, and he chose another location. When Xu Shiji got the news, he ordered Zhang Jian's troops to enter Raole City, and when the army was there, he asked more than 3,000 prisoners of the Xi army to speed up the repair of the city, and the women snatched by Ao Balie were sent to Yingzhou, and more than 2,000 rescued slaves were willing to join the army and were supplemented to various troops.
The Xi people could not cope with the enemy on their stomachs and backs, and they struggled to support it for more than a month, and after Yuwenzheng released the prisoners again to report the news, the king agreed to surrender. After discussion, the Xi people canceled the new five departments, the Yuan Qi folded the department in the source of the water head set up a weak water county, the population of the Ahui department was all handed over, and finally the king of humiliation only handed over more than 8,000 old and weak women, Xu Shiji accepted them all, 5,000 women and children moved to Yingzhou together, and the old man sent Rao Lecheng to repair the city with the Xi captives.
The king of humiliation left all the strong young people in the source of the water, in fact, it was in line with Yang Chong's mind, Yang Chong had no intention of pinching him, even if he killed all the Xi people, there were still people who would occupy the source of the water, Yang Chong wanted an obedient Xi people, even if they made a little move, it didn't matter, which family didn't live like this.
When the news came out, the Northeast was shocked, and it was fortunate and unfortunate that the Xi people became a county of the Great Sui, fortunately, there was no need to think about what to dominate the Northeast from now on, and unfortunately the Xi people were no longer an independent force in the Northeast. Everyone is speculating, where will Yang Chong hit next? Is it Turkic, Goguryeo, or Jin Ya and Khitan? In the midst of the rumors, Yang Chong's pen fell on the Pipa River on the map and drew a big circle.
There is an old city of the Han Dynasty, less than a hundred miles away from Shengle City and Pinggang City, Yang Chong decided to merge these three cities into Shengle County, and Wang Gong was the county guard; The two cities of Jiande City, Rao Le City and Lintun County, the northernmost Qiaozhi County in Yingzhou, were merged into Lintun County, which was still Tudi Ji as the Lintun County Guard; Liaodong County was set up in the westernmost part of Yingzhou by overseas Chinese in Liaodong City, plus Changli City, Wuxian City, and Huaiyuan Town, and Deng Wei no longer acted as the county guard, and Qin Qiong was the county guard; Murong Xifeng's Xuansu County was developing around the Great Thorn City, and it was increased to become a four-city Qiaozhi County.
Deng Wei understood that Yang Chong would really take action against Goguryeo, and constantly strengthening Yingzhou was to ensure the important land of western Liaoning. The sailors of the Great Sui and Goguryeo fought again, and Goguryeo waited for a fleet in Bohai Bay, a fleet that had come to prepare for a decisive battle. The Great Sui dispatched seventy-one warships, and the Goguryeo dispatched seventy-eight, and neither side considered the possibility of retreating and evading, and fought directly after the formation.
The Yellow Sea suddenly changed drastically, Goguryeo prepared for a year, made a large number of cowhide chartered boats, to resist the Greek fire, but did not expect the Great Sui Army's Thunderbolt camp on the sea ships, there are twenty warships equipped with heavenly thunder, the heavenly thunder easily smashed the bow of the shelf, cowhides, wooden blocks fell at the same time, the Greek fire still burned the wooden boat, so that the sea rose raging fire.
The final result was tragic, except for three Goguryeo ships that surrendered and one ship fled, the remaining 74 ships were all sunk, more than 4,000 soldiers were killed, and the corpses of Goguryeo warriors and the fragments of wooden boats floated all over the sea. Twenty-three ships were sunk on the Great Sui side, and most of the soldiers who fell into the sea were rescued, 582 people were killed in the battle, and the fleet went directly to Wangya City for repairs.
Lelang County Shou Gao Yongsheng and Zhenfan County Shou Kong Changxiu are all old men who follow Deng Wei, Kong Changxiu was promoted from the Xiaoguo Army step by step, Deng Wei is not worried, Gao Yongsheng is a generation of fierce generals, but he commands thousands of troops and horses, and he is still a little worse. Deng Wei reminded the two that they should be ready to increase their territory at any time, and once they increase their territory, they will definitely be like Tudiji and Qin Qiong, and the army must be trained well in the face of Yan Ya and Goguryeo.
After the end of the naval battle, Goguryeo immediately sent an envoy back to Wen Dayou and handed over the credentials. Last year, Xu Shiji burned the grain fields of the Liaohe River, and Goguryeo had a tight year; If we do it again this year, we will have Alexander in Goguryeo. At present, the Goguryeo naval division is cleanly lost, and many roads such as Xi and Liaodong are connected by land, and if the Sui army wants to cross the border and set fires, it will be impossible to prevent it.
Tuli was separated by half a month, and when he came to Zhuo County again, he didn't know what to say, except for Murowei, only a few counties jointly built by the Great Sui began to pay taxes, and the rest were either ignored, that is, there was no money for the time being, if you forcibly levy, we would turn our faces. However, in a short period of time, Yang Chong destroyed the Xi people and defeated Goguryeo, although he lost countless money, but established the position of the Great Sui in Liaodong.
Yang Chong held a grand banquet in Fanyang Palace, attended at the same time as Du Fuwei, and received the Turkic and Goguryeo missions; During the banquet, talking about the urban construction of the Northeast, Tuli said with a surprised expression when he talked about the attitude of Jieli Khan: "Uncle didn't blame me, and asked me to come to you to discuss, saying that I could hand over the entire Khitan to the Great Sui." ”
Du Fuwei and the others were all very happy, if there was no support from the Turks, the Khitan would be the meal of the Great Sui at all, but Yang Chong waved his hand and said: "Don't tell me this kind of gimmick, use the city of Tongwan in exchange, that is the land of the Great Sui, the Khitan is a subject country of the Great Sui, with whom, let them choose for themselves." ”
Du Fuwei nodded and said: "What the prime minister said is extremely true, Shibi Khan, they just wanted to invade the Great Sui and were punished by heaven. ”
Tu Li's face changed greatly, and he stood up excitedly, if it wasn't for Tianqi to stop him with a sword, I'm afraid he would rush over and kill Yang Chong; In this way, Tuli was still shouting: "I knew it was you, in Dali City, you Dasui have countless fine works and dead soldiers, my father, and the second uncle, this is how they died." ”
