Chapter 603: Change of Plan

"The grasshopper shakes the tree, and it can't help itself."

The Datang Navy Division regarded the Japanese fleet as nothing, and rushed into the Japanese fleet with no indomitable movement under a command.

Only a moment later, the Tang Navy had already scuttled through the fleet of the Japanese State, or directly crushed it from the head of the Japanese fleet.

All the ships of the Japanese Kingdom that stood in the way of the Tang Dynasty ships had only one fate, and that was to be smashed and crushed.

When Wu Yuanqing looked back and sneered, threw down a comment and took the fleet away, there were only more than ten surviving ships of the Wa Kingdom on the sea of Jiangkou, as well as the Wa people who watched the Tang Invincible Armada go away, and the sporadic wailing of the undrowned Wa people in the floating corpses on the sea in the background.

When Wu Yuanqing rushed back to the Han River basin at night, preparing to pick up Liu Renyuan and Liu Renyuan in the area between the two rivers of the Xiongjin River after cleaning the Han River, Liu Renliang and the two teams rushed to the confluence of Xishui and Yu Chi Baolin, but they got the news that Su Dingfang and Cheng Chumo's two teams actually besieged Anshi City for nearly a month before they took it with difficulty, and they also paid nearly 5,000 casualties.

"What the hell am I......"Wu Yuanqing's lungs exploded, and he didn't know what these two were eating.

What you need to attack Liaodong is to fight quickly, because the weather here is indeed very bad in autumn, the road is muddy and not easy to walk or something is secondary, the key is that it is too cold in winter.

Even if Datang sent troops this time, the logistics support was very good, and winter clothes had been allocated to Liaodong before they set off, or sweaters, leather clothes, etc. were all good things to keep out the cold.

But wearing it as warm as a ball is warm, but it will also affect the flexibility of the Tang soldiers. In contrast, the locals of Liaodong are much more accustomed to wearing bloated winter clothes.

As soon as the two boxes are offset, the advantage of the Datang soldiers in personal military literacy is not so obvious.

Therefore, whether it is Li Shimin or Wu Yuanqing's idea, it is to fight quickly, take the first line of heavy cities in Liaoshui in the fastest time, and then quickly attack the hinterland of Goguryeo and cooperate with Yu Chi Baolin to take Pyongyang City, the capital of Goguryeo, Wu Yuanqing is smashing Baekje next to Goguryeo to prevent Baekje from having the opportunity to send troops to reinforce, so that the four teams of men and horses can stir Goguryeo into a pot of porridge, and without a limited number of big cities and heavy cities, Goguryeo is the existence of being abused by the Tang Dynasty in the field. With the rest of the small city, it can withstand the attack of the Tang Dynasty at all.

If it's fast, when the weather gets cooler, Goguryeo will basically be destroyed, even if the progress is not so fast, after taking those big cities, it will be defended until the end of winter, and Goguryeo will still be destroyed in the spring of next year.

But now, all let Cheng Chumo and Su Dingfang delay. Now it's July, and it's going to be cold in a little more than a month.

Wu Yuanqing was most angry that because of this delay, he wanted to rush back to Chang'an to look at Xiangcheng after the war, and the idea of Changle production came to naught.

"No, I said that I have to go back and watch my child be born when I say anything." Wu Yuanqing gritted his teeth and thought.

"Zhang Shi, Liu Renyuan, and Liu Renliang, when will they be able to arrive?" Wu Yuanqing asked with a yell.

"Back to the general manager, General Liu Renliang sent a fast horse to report before, and they still need a day's journey." Zhang Shi replied loudly.

"A day's journey? Not slowly." Wu Yuanqing nodded with satisfaction.

Liu Renliang, Liu Ren is willing not to look at the sailors and soldiers, but these people are not a problem to ride horses, although they are not good cavalry on horseback, but they are much faster in mobility.

When attacking the Han River, a lot of war horses were captured, Wu Yuanqing didn't expect to let the sailors use the captured war horses, but Liu Renliang thought of it, when Wu Yuanqing ordered him to take 10,000 people to fight south, he scavenged all the horses he could find and turned all his men into light cavalry.

Liu Renyuan was arranged by Wu Yuanqing to take 5,000 people to the north to join Liu Renqing, and he also did the same when he captured the horses and turned his own people into cavalry infantry. Ride on horseback and get off your horse to fight.

Therefore, these two people were able to catch up with the speed of the sailors sailing on the sea, and when Wu Yuanqing arrived at the Han River, they were only a day's journey away from the Han River.

Compared with the flexible brains of these two, Wu Yuanqing felt that Cheng Chumo and Su Dingfang were too much, and they were ordered to attack Anshi City first, and they wanted to attack Liaodong City, but they were fully prepared by the Anshi City guards, and they were stunned to block their 40,000 troops under Anshi City for nearly a month.

The results of the harvest are neither comparable to Yu Chi Baolin with 10,000 people, nor can they be compared to the 20,000 sailors led by Wu Yuanqing.

"Zhang Shi, you go and bring some people to move some gunpowder to the shore, and some bombs to carry too." Wu Yuanqing commanded.

"Yes." Zhang Shi took the order and left.

"Since something went wrong with the plan, then Lao Tzu simply ignored the plan and directly pushed it over." Wu Yuanqing stood at the bow of the boat and looked north.

Liu Renliang and Liu Renyuan arrived earlier than expected, and arrived before noon.

When the sun was setting from the top of the head, in addition to leaving 5,000 people to guard the ship led by Zhang Shi, Wu Yuanqing personally led the troops, with Liu Renyuan, Liu Renliang and 15,000 sailors and soldiers to kill the city of Dongbihu, which was more than 30 miles north of the Han River.

This fortress is the largest and most important fortress of Goguryeo south of the Yalu River except for Pyongyang Fortress, which used to belong to Baekje and was later occupied by Goguryeo.

In the original time and space, this castle existed as the imperial capital in the Goryeo period hundreds of years later. This shows the importance of this city.

When he attacked along the Han River before, he didn't do anything about this important city of Goguryeo, which was close at hand, and in the plan, this city would not be a heavy city that would be attacked from the beginning, but after taking Pyongyang City and Liaodong City, he would return to attack and directly destroy the remnants of Baekje and Silla.

But now Wu Yuanqing didn't want to go as planned, he wanted to concentrate his forces to take this city first, and then fight north from here to Pyongyang to join Yu Chi Baolin.

More than thirty miles and forty miles, under the gallop of fast horses, it will take more than half an hour to arrive.

The news of the return of the Tang Navy Division, when Wu Yuanqing entered the mouth of the Han River with the Navy Ship yesterday, the defender of Dongbihu City had already received the news.

Although I don't know if the Tang army will attack, but in order to prevent 10,000, the defenders of Dongbihu City still mobilized the people of the city, and the defenders strengthened the defense of the city, and also sent scouts from afar to inquire about the situation.

Therefore, for the attack of the Tang Army's troops and horses, Dongbi got the news in advance of Hucheng, and the soldiers defending the city put all the equipment that should be prepared to defend the city, such as rolling stones, sassal wood, gold juice, etc., on the city wall.

Then when the Tang army arrived at the city, Dongbihu City had already made all the preparations for war, and the gold juice and fire oil were also boiling hot, with bursts of smoke and stench wafting in the air.
