Chapter 565: Soldiers are treacherous
Just when Li Yuanba asked a group of Shenwu guards to prepare for military affairs, there was a desert island with a small area on the sea in the opposite direction to Bihua City, that is, southwest of Dengzhou City.
This deserted island is not far from Dengzhou, and at the current speed of the sea ship, it can reach Dengzhou in only three hours.
It's just that this small island is so inhospitable that there is not even vegetation or fresh water, so normally, no ship would choose to dock here.
Today, however, the island looks a little weird.
Then I saw that there were twenty large ships moored around the island, and looking at the style of these ships, it was a warship in the water.
Moreover, through the dim moonlight, it was obvious that the high masts of these ships were hung with Goguryeo's wolf-headed battle flags, and the hideous hammers looked like ghosts on the warships without a trace of fire.
In addition, the desert island on the sea is also pitch black, but if someone comes to the island at this moment, they will find that there are hundreds of tents on this deserted island that is uninhabited on weekdays, and each tent is lit by candlelight, and there are many shadows in the tents, and it seems that there must be a hundred and ten people.
……
In a huge tent in the middle, a few faint rays of light faintly shone through the cracks in the curtain.
"Zheng En, can you be sure that if we go this way, we can reach Dengzhou?"
There were only four people in the tent, two of them in leather armor on the left side of the tent, and two others in fine clothes on the right side of the tent.
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man sitting at the top of the left side.
"General Quan, rest assured, the route from our Pyongyang City to Dengzhou has already taken dozens of trips, and it will definitely be there!"
Sitting opposite this middle-aged man, a middle-aged man with a big belly, dressed like a wealthy businessman, with chrysanthemums on his face. A flower-like smile. To continue:
"This route we took months to explore! In the past few years, I have walked no less than dozens of times. It's just that there is a long detour on this journey, but fortunately, the time is only delayed for three hours, as long as the time starts, you can reach Dengzhou in three minutes at most. ”
This rich man dressed as a man named Zheng Eun, although on the surface he looked like a smiling Goguryeo businessman, but in fact he was a secret spy of the Goguryeo Quan clan stationed in the Tang Dynasty.
This guy has been doing business in the Datang realm and even in Chang'an City all year round. It was still easy to find a direct sailing route from Goguryeo to Dengju.
Besides, the Quan clan had no choice but to break the kettle this time. Yes, this chess piece, which was buried deep in the Tang Dynasty, finally came to make a move.
"Okay, as long as we can successfully reach Dengzhou, you will have made a great contribution to my Goguryeo and my Quan clan! When the time comes, the high-ranking officials will be generous. Money, the choice is yours! ”
The middle-aged man who had just spoken suddenly laughed, the arrogance on his face was simply the same as the Quangaiwu River where his legs were blown off in Bihua City.
This middle-aged man's name is Quangai Wujiang. You should be able to guess where he came from by listening to his name, right?
That's right, this guy belongs to the Quan clan and is the eldest of Uncle Quangai Suwen's family. Because he was born early, he really talks about relationships. Quangai Suwen should call Quangai Wujiang a big brother.
Originally, Zheng En's chess piece, Quan's still wanted to hide it in the snow. But when Quan Gai Wujiang learned the news, he immediately thought of a good solution.
That's the cross-sea attack on Dengzhou!
Dengzhou is a good place, not only the strategic location is extremely important, but the most important thing is that the martial king Li Yuanba is here!
His Majesty's most favored and dearest brother of the Tang Dynasty is here! As long as Dengzhou City is captured, Li Yuanba is captured alive, and Li Yuanba is used to blackmail Li Shimin to withdraw from the army, with his understanding of Li Shimin, the possibility of success is still very high.
Also, didn't you attack my Bihua City before Dengzhouwei? Then I will simply treat others in the way of others!
Although there are Shenwu guards stationed in Dengzhou City, judging from Zheng En's previous investigation, it seems that only 5,000 people have been killed, and only 5,000 people have been killed, even if Dengzhou Guards are added, there are only more than 10,000 people.
In addition, the naval army of Dengzhou is only a tiger talisman and an edict, even if the king of martial arts cannot be dispatched, there is no need to worry that the Tang naval army will suddenly be killed from the middle of the road.
After thinking about it, Quangai Wujiang came up with such a vicious method.
After Quangai Wujiang put forward this plan, after discussion by the Quan's clan and several military and political clansmen, Quangai Wujiang set off with a large army, and soon selected this desert island as a temporary station.
"Master Xie cultivates!"
When Zheng En heard Quangai Wujiang's words, his face was immediately happy.
You know, his current identity is just a secret spy, that is, a special . Business. His identity and status in Goguryeo can be said to be extremely low, and it can even be said that a random official of Pyongyang City can bully and bully him.
Now it's good, finally have the opportunity to climb up and get ahead, Zheng En's heart is naturally full of joy and even a trace of pride.
"Hmm!"
Seeing Zheng En's sincere fear, Quan Gai Wujiang nodded with satisfaction.
At the moment when the Goguryeo country is in trouble, all the people who are useful to the Izumi clan must be effectively used, even if they are promised some false names or money or something, it doesn't matter, who knows if these promises will be fulfilled at that time?
Next, Quan Gai Wujiang turned his head to look at the person next to him and said, "General Jin, what is the current situation of our army?" When they came to this island, the soldiers had been resting for several hours, could they immediately launch an attack on the city of Dengzhou after they set off for Dengzhou? ”
"Lord Qiqi, the last general has already checked, and the condition of the 10,000 sailors is very good, and they can fight at any time! It's just that the remaining 10,000 cavalry requisitioned from the interior are a little unaccustomed to the turbulence of the sea on this day, and there has been an uncomfortable reaction! ”
The man sitting next to Quan Gai Wujiang frowned and continued:
"In the opinion of the last general, it is best to let those soldiers rest for another day, otherwise, I am afraid it will be difficult to fight!"
This time, in order to attack the city of Dengju, 10,000 soldiers were transferred from the coastal city, and the remaining 10,000 were directly dispatched from the city of Pyongyang.
With only 20,000 people, it can be said that it is half of Goguryeo's national strength.
Because there were only 30,000 soldiers left in Pyongyang, the rest of the domestic miscellaneous officers and soldiers were either scattered or captured by the Tang army, or they were left in the grass and could not be used at all.
Therefore, in order to prepare for this attack, Goguryeo has made a bloody investment, if this attack fails, then Goguryeo will not need to resist, waiting to be destroyed.
"Can't the bodies of those cavalrymen adapt to it?" When Quangai Wujiang heard General Jin's words, he was suddenly a little dumbfounded.
How the hell are you going to fight? So many soldiers can't fight, it's just a bunch of soft-footed shrimp!
Besides, so many of them are hiding on this desert island, although the geographical location of the desert island is hidden enough, it will inevitably be discovered by the Tang Dengzhou Guard.
Once discovered, or once Dengju learned that Goguryeo was going to attack them, they would definitely take precautions, and even immediately mobilize a large army to counterattack.
Then their plan to sneak attack Dengzhou is completely empty, and they themselves will have to leave their lives behind!
"Although there are not 10,000 soldiers, half of the soldiers have not recovered!" There was some bitterness in General Kim's voice.
"There are only 10,000 ......" Izumi Wujiang stood up and walked back and forth among the eldest sons, visibly becoming very anxious.
The middle-aged man in the tent, who had not yet spoken, said after seeing the anxious state of the Quangai Wujiang River:
"Don't worry, adults! In the days before we went to sea, Xiao Wei had already anticipated this situation in advance, so he allocated some Datang herbs, which had been distributed to the soldiers in the army before they got off the ship! I believe that in another hour, they will be able to become alive again! ”
"Datang's herbs?" Hearing the words of this middle-aged man, he recalled the soup in the big bucket that was placed in the mouth of the boat before getting off the boat, and suddenly said in surprise: "Mr. Zheng, I have long heard that you are studying under the imperial doctor of the Tang Dynasty, but I didn't expect it to be true. ”
Mr. Zheng smiled and nodded, and said, "I did stay in Chang'an City for a while, and I had the honor to worship Old Doctor Wang as a teacher and learn medical skills. Now it can be used on the clansmen, and it can be regarded as applying what you have learned! ”
"Mr. Zheng is so humble!" Quangai Wujiang excitedly covered Mr. Zheng's hand and said, "Sir, the medicine you have prepared can really treat the physical discomfort of the soldiers?" ”
Mr. Zheng bowed his head slightly and said with certainty: "Yes!" The way of Chinese medicine is broad and profound, and I believe in my own medical skills! ”
"So, please accept me, sir!" Quangai Wujiang arched his hand, gave a big salute to Mr. Zheng, and said, "Mr. has really made a contribution to my Goguryeo!" ”
"You're welcome!" Mr. Zheng didn't dare to guard the spring and cover the Wujiang River, so he flashed sideways.
"My lord, according to the last general, let the soldiers rest for another day!" General Jin was still a little uneasy, "After all, there are Shenwu guards stationed in Dengzhou, if you don't let the soldiers get used to it, wouldn't it be too risky to rashly attack Dengzhou?" ”
"We can wait, but can we wait?" Quangai Wujiang snorted coldly and said, "Although the combat strength of our army is not as good as that of the Tang army, it is very likely to succeed if we use the advantage in numbers to give it a go!" ”
Speaking of this, Quan Gai Wujiang sneered and said, "Kill and kill!" If Dengzhou is captured, the city will be slaughtered! (To be continued......)
