Chapter 159: Addicted to the Emperor

Two weeks later, Feng Tian attended the inauguration ceremony of the Peking University campus and immediately set off for a vacation. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

During the middle of summer, the heat wave in the north is rolling, which does not affect the construction and production of the northland, and there is no precedent for ordinary people to take vacations, only Feng Tian has this privilege, because he has the final say.

Of course, this is an absolutely confidential matter, and no one else knows about it except for the higher-ups who know about it.

Feng Tian took his wife Bian Yu with him, as well as the female spy Wu Huamei and the personal doctor Miss Iijima, escorted by the guards of a battalion, and drove to the Chengde Summer Resort.

The summer resort is divided into four parts: palace area, lake area, plain area and mountain area.

The palace area is located on the south bank of the lake, the terrain is flat, it is the place where the emperor deals with court affairs, holds celebrations and lives, covers an area of 100,000 square meters, and is composed of four groups of buildings: the main palace, Songhezhai, Wanqi Songfeng and the East Palace.

In the face of the Goguryeo Royal City, Zhang Yu's tactics were indeed to surround but not fight, although the number of auxiliaries under the Jiangnan Army was huge, it was not a matter of one or two days to capture the Goguryeo Royal City.

After all, Pyongyang is the royal city of Goguryeo, and the city walls are relatively strong, and it is difficult to capture them in a hurry, and it may be difficult to conquer them without 32,000 people.

It is not the reason for worrying about the heavy casualties of the auxiliary soldiers, and the lives of the auxiliary troops are not an important issue in the eyes of the Jiangnan Army.

Besides, although the royal city of Goguryeo was surrounded, there were still large areas that had not been cleared in time, and it was not the best strategy to rush to attack the city.

Although there is no longer any concern that Goguryeo still has a large army, even a small army harassment is not easy to deal with.

It is necessary to take advantage of the siege of the Goguryeo royal fortress to completely or mostly bulldoze the foundation of the Goguryeo kingdom when there is no order in the territory of Goguryeo, so that the Goguryeo royal city is isolated and helpless, and there is only waiting for death.

Therefore, it is the best policy to besiege the Goguryeo royal city without attacking it and clean up the surrounding area

At present, the royal city of Goguryeo has been isolated and helpless, and I don't know how much food there is in Goguryeo, but the supply outside the city has been cut off, and no matter how much food there is, it will be eaten sooner or later.

The number of 100,000 auxiliaries is very large, and it is not difficult to build a strong camp. In order to prevent Goguryeo from breaking through or sneak attacking, Zhang Yu adopted a double layer of defense.

The first line of defense was a simple guardrail, which was filled in with earth at a distance of about 30 steps to make a high platform, and then a guardrail was built on top of it, and even if Goguryeo rushed into the first guardrail, it would be a matter of death.

Everything was well prepared, and only 20,000 auxiliary troops were stationed on each side of the 100,000 army, with 10,000 auxiliary troops in the front and another 10,000 auxiliary troops in the rear, taking turns to replace and rest.

The remaining 20,000 auxiliary troops were sent to the periphery to clear out, and the time was three to five days or ten days and a half months, depending on the distance, and when the time came, they would be rotated into another 20,000 troops.

This arrangement is to make 100,000 auxiliary troops have hope, if it is boring to stay outside the city to garrison, it is the expectation of every auxiliary soldier to go out and vent ****. By the way, clean up the perimeter of the city so as not to be harassed by some small forces.

Leaving Luo Shixin to lead 100,000 troops to besiege the city, Zhang Yu and Pei Yuanqing began to go north with their troops. As they went, they sent out auxiliaries along the way to clear them, and the remnants of the army or other castles were slaughtered everywhere they passed.

On this day, someone from the army sent out suddenly came back to report the news.

"Report, general, I waited to take down a dirt enclosure today, but I accidentally found some Han people inside, and they were all being guarded and worked as slaves.

When we were gathering the captives together, someone probably heard us speaking Chinese, and asked us in Chinese if we were from the army of the Great Sui Dynasty.

After our interrogation, we learned that these people were all soldiers of the Sui Dynasty army who were captured by Goguryeo during the three expeditions to Goguryeo, and there were nearly 100 people.

General, they are now very miserable, they are almost thin, we have separated these people separately, I don't know what to do with them, so I came back to ask the general. ”

Zhang Yu was stunned when he heard the news, and then realized that there were indeed many people in Goguryeo who were trapped in Goguryeo during the Three Expeditions, or were killed, or captured, and no one knows how many people there were.

That's right, this is the hinterland of Goguryeo, and the Sui Dynasty soldiers who were captured by Goguryeo may indeed be placed in this area, which means that there are many places in this area that are likely to have Sui Dynasty soldiers.

It seems that the strategy needs to be changed, and these auxiliaries cannot be allowed to kill indiscriminately, and they need to be screened.

"I have ordered that when the various armies attack, they must screen the captives and rescue the Han among them. Who dares to wantonly and indiscriminately kill and cause innocent deaths of Han people, there is no mercy for killing!"

"No, General. Save the Han people first, if there is an indiscriminate killer, there will be no forgiveness. ”

The subordinates quickly conveyed Zhang Yu's order, and then let the attacking armies know that there were still Han people here.

This small unexpected discovery did save many Han people. Within a few days, thousands of Sui Dynasty captives alone were rescued.

There is also an accident, there is no shortage of people who have lived here for several generations, and still speak fluent Chinese, do you say they are Han Chinese or Goguryeo?

At the end of the Han Dynasty, it was still under the rule of the Han Dynasty, and there were indeed many Han people who settled here.

Now it's Zhang Yu's turn to have a headache, although these people still speak Chinese in their mouths, but there is no guarantee that they are pure Han Chinese, is there no one in Goguryeo who can speak Chinese?

But no matter what, these people must not be equated with the Goguryeo people, and they must be treated differently.

So, Zhang Yu ordered again: "This matter is divided into several steps, the first step is to distinguish the prisoners of the Sui Dynasty army, provide them with good food, and try to let them recover their strength as soon as possible."

The second step is to distinguish the rest of the people who can speak Chinese, but these people are not the same as those prisoners of the Sui Dynasty, and they need to be carefully guarded and not careless. Being able to speak Chinese is not necessarily Han Chinese, and you have to be careful during the war.

The last remaining people were the Goguryeo people, and they still followed the previous strategy. ”

"No, General."

Zhang Yu took some generals to visit the captured soldiers of the Sui Dynasty army, and when they saw their appearance, everyone couldn't help but burst into tears.

It's so miserable, although these people are alive, they won't live long if they are in this state, they are all skinny and bone-like, and they are very miserable.

I was able to survive because I was physically strong before, but all those who were physically weak had already died, and even some people who were originally in good health died a lot.

Zhang Yu was angry, and the entire Jiangnan Army was angry.

"Pass my order, we don't need living people in the Goguryeo Campaign, we have to avenge those dead soldiers of the Great Sui Dynasty and kill me fiercely!"

"Kill, kill, kill"

The soldiers of the Jiangnan Army roared angrily, and the sound shook the sky.

In about ten days, as long as the traffic situation in the area south of the Yalu River was reasonable, it was plowed by the Jiangnan Army and the auxiliary army.

At this point, the auxiliary army under the command of the Jiangnan Army was completely reduced to an army of beasts.

This army probably has only two concepts in mind, one is to kill and the other is to vent, and they seem to be used to this kind of life.

In this operation, the Jiangnan Army rescued nearly 20,000 soldiers of the Sui Dynasty. (To be continued.) )
