Chapter 196: The Bridge Was Built for Attack

Nie Xin and Liang Yongdong accepted the task and left, looking at the confident backs of the two people, Li Guo believed that these two people could do what Li Guo explained to them.

In the next step, Li Guo sent troops to attack Houliguo, and the battle for Liguo was about to begin, and the time for combat preparation was not short.

Li Guo has never attacked Houli Kingdom, first because he does not really understand the situation in Houli Kingdom, although he can know roughly, but many things still need to be known in as much detail as possible, so Li Guo sent a lot of spies. The second reason is that at the very beginning, Li Guo's supplies, including the soldiers, including logistics, were not ready, and Li Guo's purpose was not just to kill, he was to occupy and conquer.

The logistics that Li Guo mentioned, in addition to grain and grass equipment, there are some very important things that have been shipped, this thing is very important, Li Guo thought that these things could not be made at that time. He just sent someone to send his ideas and drawings and the required quantity to Song Yingxing, who stayed in Guangxi.

Song Yingxing directly brought a group of craftsmen here. And what Song Yingxing said to Li Guo made Li Guo feel that he lacked understanding of this era.

"Master Tiger, it seems that you want to build a pontoon bridge, I have seen your drawings, but there are some clever points! For example, the iron parts that connect the planks to the middle of the planks, and the idea that all the parts of the pontoon should be the same, are all good. I've already done a lot of the connecting iron, and this time I'm bringing some carpenters, Mo Chao has a lot of wood here, and I'm building the bridge of the pontoon bridge while discussing some problems with you. Song Yingxing said.

"Good! Very good! Li Guo really had nothing to say.

Facing the Hou Li Dynasty with the rivers and rivers and the Ruan Dynasty in the future, Li Guo needed a pontoon bridge. But there were pontoon bridges in this era. It was a big surprise to Li Guo. Actually, Li Guo didn't know that the pontoon bridge existed as early as the time of King Wen of Zhou. Building a pontoon bridge is simply pediatric for Song Yingxing. Because the predecessors even built pontoon bridges on the Yangtze River and even the Yellow River.

So, the craftsmen were busy cutting wood, and Li Guo seized the time to recruit another 5,000 Mo Dynasty soldiers, and because of the construction of the pontoon bridge, Li Guo named these 5,000 people as the engineering detachment.

The role of the engineering detachment is to open roads in the mountains and stack bridges in the water. In this place where there are many river systems, if the Houli country destroys the bridges on the river. Those artillery trucks that Li Guo has passed are really useless.

What Li Guo wants to do is a pontoon! A pontoon bridge that can pass through a gun truck!

And now this qiē is not a problem at all, and the matter has been solved by Song Yingxing. Therefore, Li Guo is now preparing to attack.

However, to Li Guo's surprise, Houli Kingdom has never attacked Li Guo. It's really weird. It seems that the Houli Dynasty has forgotten about the fact that Zheng Yu, the youngest son of the Zheng Lord of the Later Li Kingdom, was killed by Li Guo!

In fact, Li Guo hoped that Hou Liguo would attack, so that he could wait for work. Defeat your enemies with all your might.

Of course, the Zheng lord of the Later Li Dynasty did not forget the pain of losing his son. Hearing the news that Zheng Yu was killed and that nearly 70,000 soldiers were wiped out, Lord Zheng was stunned.

Grief-stricken, Lord Zheng immediately gathered his men and horses, and transferred back to Zheng Miao, the eldest son of the Nguyen Dynasty who was defending the south, and gathered a total of 150,000 people to prepare to sweep the Mo Dynasty in the north.

Lord Zheng is determined to kill Mo Zhengkuan's family in the Mo Dynasty and avenge Zheng Yu. If Li Guo hadn't participated in the war, maybe Lord Zheng's idea was correct.

The one who raised the objection was Zheng Zhu's eldest son, Zheng Miao. Zheng Mian fought bravely and was also known for his strategy. He stopped Lord Zheng's impulse.

"Father, this matter is full of evil spirits, and something is wrong." Zheng Mill said.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to avenge your brother? Lord Zheng said angrily.

Zheng Mo shook his head, "I didn't mean that, I just wondered, how could Mo Chao have such great strength!" ”

When Lord Zheng heard this, he also pondered secretly, bowing his head and saying nothing.

"In the past, we did not attack the Mo Dynasty, not because the Mo Dynasty army was strong, but because we didn't want the Ming Dynasty's army to get involved in the war! If Zheng Yu is facing the army of the Mo Dynasty, then his 70,000 soldiers are all annihilated, which is very wrong, I am afraid that the army of the Ming Dynasty has joined the battle! Zheng Milling Analysis.

Lord Zheng thought for a while and said, "A few months before Zheng Yu went to the war, he specially sent people to the territory of the Ming Dynasty to investigate, the Ming army in Guangxi in the Ming Dynasty was not large, and the combat effectiveness did not seem to be strong, how could the Ming army dare to come to help Mo Zhengkuan fight with us?" ”

"Father, maybe things have changed!" Zheng Mill said.

The ministers on the side also agreed with Zheng Miao's statement.

Lord Zheng thought about it and decided to send spies to investigate. The news soon came back, and as Zheng Miao's analysis was, a large number of Ming troops really came, and there were tens of thousands of people.

So, a very important question was put in front of Lord Zheng, what should I do next? Against the Ming army, it is war or peace!

Zheng Miao's idea was to send someone to contact the Ming army as soon as possible, and now he should hurry up and sue for peace with the Ming army. Being able to maintain a state of peace with the Ming army was the most favorable state for the Later Li Dynasty at this time. Because the Later Li Dynasty itself was in the middle of the Mo Dynasty and the Nguyen Dynasty. In addition, Zheng Miao's statement is very pertinent, the Ming army that can defeat Zheng Yu's 70,000 people at once must be a strong army, and fighting against them will do all kinds of harm but no benefit.

Zheng Zhu also agrees with Zheng Miao's statement, but his son Zheng Yu was killed, and if he doesn't take revenge, he has to go to the humble to sue for peace, which is unjustifiable. Not to mention the Houli Dynasty under his rule, even the Ruan Dynasty in the south will definitely laugh at him.

The opinions of Zheng Mo and Zheng Zhu were supported by the ministers, and the two factions fought back and forth, but nothing was done.

Zheng Mo was angry in his heart. So, Zheng Mo sent people to monitor the movements of Li Guo's team, and on the other hand, he ordered his team to strengthen combat readiness.

As the news came one by one, Zheng Mo became more and more nervous. Zheng Mo found that the mysterious Ming Dynasty army was preparing in an orderly manner, judging from the preparation of the Ming army, the Ming army would not just simply defeat them, and the upcoming battle was likely to be related to the life and death of the Houli Kingdom! Zheng Mi thought that this might be the biggest enemy he would ever encounter in his life!

Zheng Miao's prediction was good, although Li Guo has not yet had the ability to sweep the world, but in the world, no matter which aspect of the team, it is very unfortunate to encounter Li Guo, so Zheng Miao is also unlucky!

Zheng is now holding on to the (southern) Taiyuan of the Later Li Dynasty, which is not the one in Shanxi, a city in northeastern Vietnam and the capital of Taiyuan Province. Located on the edge of the Qiu River, it is the only way to hold the north to the capital of the Houli Dynasty to Shenglong. If you want to capture Thang Long, you must first capture (south) Taiyuan.

Li Guo is very confident, and now he only feels that the place names in this area of Annan are very strange, and they are all imitations of the names of Chinese cities. But Li Guo is also very proud, which also shows the far-reaching influence of Chinese culture.

However, Li Guo didn't have time to sigh, he had already ordered the whole army to pull out and kill the (southern) Taiyuan of the Later Dynasty! (To be continued......)
