Huating Wenyue Pavilion Li Yuan knew that Yanzhou would be the location of the Chinese army camp during the war, and then the five pioneer battalions.

The five pioneer battalions are Beisha City, Liaozhong City, Yancheng Port, Tamna Island, and Tsushima Island.

and the secret army Maoshan Mine Slave Army.

"Aiqing, do you know how many people were mobilized by the former Sui expedition to Goguryeo?"

"Emperor Taishang, the former Sui expedition to Goguryeo mobilized 1,133,800 soldiers and horses, and transferred twice as many soldiers and soldiers, totaling 3.4 million people. From the mobilization of troops and horses to the start of war, it took 400 days to prepare in advance. ”

Li Jing, as the secretary of the Ministry of War, can say that these data are like a stream.

Li Yuan asked again: "How much is the battle loss?" ”

"About 200,000 people died on the battlefield, 800,000 people died on the road, and one million were killed in battle."

"You just said that my Tang Dynasty attacked Goguryeo, and the battle loss was less than 3,000?"

Li Jing replied very seriously: "That's what the minister said. ”

"How many troops and horses do I have in the Tang Dynasty, and how many people do I have?"

"Emperor Taishang, I have transferred 70,000 troops to the Tang Dynasty, and a total of 60,000 troops from the Fourth Army of the Shen Ce Guard. The Navy Division transferred 1,200 warships and 18,000 marines. There were 3,800 ships and 16,322 carriages. This is not counting the logistics team used to pull artillery, which has 8,000 people and 4,000 carriages. There are 400 cannon for the big general, 400 cannon for the small general, 3,000 tiger squatting, and countless shells. ”

Li Jing's answer was very detailed, but Li Yuan became more and more incomprehensible.

Li Yuan asked: "So, why do you say that the battle loss is 3,000?" ”

Li Jing smiled bitterly: "Emperor Taishang, the sage and Liu Juma both said that the battle loss is less than 1,000, and this battle will fight the majesty of the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Is it possible?"

Li Yuan didn't believe that he could fight without dying, killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 himself.

Li Jing made a gesture, and after many low-level staff officers retreated, Li Jing said: "If the four armies of the gods go out to fight with all their might, the minister is sure that the battle damage will be controlled at 500 in the total destruction of the Goguryeo army, and these 500 will die in an accident, not on the battlefield." ”

"Why?"

"With the Xuanwu Guard battleship fully fired, there is no grass for three miles on the shore. If Vermilion Bird Wei is full of firepower, I'm afraid it's ......"

Li Jing stopped, let out a long sigh and said, "The lives are ruined." ”

Li Yuan's hand couldn't help but tremble, and the cup in his hand fell to the ground.

"Aiqing tell me about it."

Li Yuan is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty has no secrets to hide from him.

Li Jing said: "Liu Juma has a Zhenguo divine soldier. ”

"Isn't the Zhenguo Divine Soldier a great general's cannon?" After Li Yuan interjected, he felt that something was wrong, and said, "Aiqing continues." ”

Li Jing continued: "It is a fortress flying in the sky, attacking from the sky to the ground, and the power of each blow is not weaker than that of the general's cannon, and the full firepower is equivalent to the power of the continuous bombardment of the general's cannon with 6,000 cannons. But because it's in the sky, the killing range is incomparable to that of the general's cannon. ”

"In other words, if you fire with all your might, I'm afraid that even a mouse will not survive in Goguryeo Wangcheng."

Li Yuan was stunned.

"Heavenly !!"

"Yes, it's heavenly, and it hasn't been built yet, but the Emperor, do you think that Liu Juma has failed over the years, can you imagine that the troops thousands of miles away can transmit military information and military orders between breaths?" Li Jing also smiled bitterly.

For Li Jing, the current pattern of war is completely different from the art of war he reads.

The method of war conceived by Yanagi is to blow up all the enemy fortresses with the general's cannon, and then blow up the remnants of the enemy army again with the tiger squat, and this is not the end, and then kill the remnants of the enemy army with another firearm at about 100 paces, and then use a strong crossbow to shoot at the enemy troops who are still alive.

And that's not all, the willow wood also has grenades, and the short fire system.

Finally, there is the armor.

According to Li Jing's thoughts, after fighting like this several times, the task of the armor soldier is to collect the corpse, and there is not much possibility of fighting.

Even if there were still living enemy troops, their courage would have been shattered with fright.

Li Jing opposes such a method of warfare for the simple reason that it is too expensive.

So Li Jing reduced this process as much as possible, Liu Mu said that the general's artillery bombarded ten cannons, Li Jing thought that three artillery with a target was enough, and then used the tiger squat to clear a part.

In this way, Li Jing thought that when the armor soldiers went up, there were no enemy troops who resisted.

Li Yuan also understood that this was not a war, it was the Tang Dynasty that gathered all its strength to show the people of the world and show the national prestige of the Tang Dynasty. The saying for changing willow wood is that this is called showing muscles.

Transporting hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and it is also a secret transfer, Li Jing at the moment, in addition to deducing the battle situation, the most important thing is to dispatch soldiers and horses.

Although the eldest grandson Wuji is a civil official, he is a super excellent logistics officer.

Ashinadur led the army, led the Turkic, Khitan, and Yan tribes to assemble secretly, and was repairing in the Khitan tribe three hundred miles west of Liaozhong City at this time, he was one of the pioneers of the Five Roads, and he was responsible for the road of Liaozhong City.

Li Xiaogong led the army, at this time in Huating to prepare for the war, after the troops and equipment were all in place, went north to Laizhou, and then secretly divided a part into Beisha City, and then advanced by water, taking the Jinzhou Peninsula.

The Emperor Taishang of the Tang Dynasty personally led an army, Liu Renliang was the deputy general, and led the Tang Dynasty Navy Division to prepare for the battle of Tamluo, once the war started, this one was the vanguard of the Chinese army, and went straight to the Goguryeo royal city.

The fourth route is led by Chai Shao, and the elite has been transferred to the west of Fuso Island to prepare for war and go to Tsushima Island at any time.

In the end, Qin Qiong led the army, Feng Ang was the deputy general, and led the Tang Nanhai Navy Division to prepare for the war in Yancheng Port, and rushed to Dandong City as soon as the war started, and then led the Shence Qinglongwei, who secretly infiltrated Maoshan, and the Maoshan Mine Slave Army to divide Goguryeo into two.

The rest such as Cheng Yanjin, Duan Zhixuan, Zhang Shigui, Li Junxian and so on.

The draw was drawn to form these five vanguards.

Li Jing believed that there was no need for the Chinese army to fight, and the five vanguards could solve all the battles, and the Chinese army only left 50,000 elites, which was in fact to suppress the formation for the army.

The entire Datang National Mobilization, in addition to Li Daozong and other generals who were still in the Mediterranean, included Qiandao Dao, Fusang Dao, Nanhai Jiaoyuan Dao, and Zhongnan Dao. All the powers that can be called upon have been mobilized.

The two large battalions of the southwest and northwest border armies each transferred 20,000 veteran troops to supplement the new army of 40,000 to guard the border.

As the days passed, the people of Datang were not greatly affected.

The number of strong people who built the railway has long been sufficient, and the number of people who have built the bridge is also sufficient.

However, the airbags for the airship were made, and thousands of excellent silk weavers were called, and Chang'an City was still singing and dancing, and it was a prosperous scene.

What is really busy is the railway construction site and the Huayuan Special Ordnance Workshop.

In the blink of an eye, another New Year has arrived.

Li Shimin sat in the study and gave an order: "Let the Chang'an City Guards arrange some work, even if they are military orders, they will also make this year's Chang'an City extraordinarily lively." ”
