Okay, let's go back here about Xue Rengui's growth experience, time is very tight, there is an accident on the front line again, and General Xue needs to rush to the rescue!

The Battle of Xincheng was still only the defeat of Goguryeo's heavy army, and its living force was still alive, and the remaining 100,000 defeated troops retreated all the way north to Jinshan City.

Since it is a defeated army, then Gao Wei will go to pursue it. The facts of the "before" and "after" will prove that Gao Wei is indeed suitable for the task of clearing the remnants of the enemy. However, that was before and after, not now! Gao Wei led the army to the north to pursue the enemy army, after all, the water dogs are still easy to fight. However, Gao Wei ignored a problem, the water dog is also a dog, and he jumped off the wall in a hurry!

The enemy troops who were cowering in Jinshan City found that it was Gao Wei again, so they went out of the city to fight. I can't beat Xue Rengui, but it's not difficult to beat you Gao. More than 100,000 Goguryeo troops rearranged their troops and arranged their formations, and the momentum was huge. Enough, the dignified army of more than 100,000 people has been humiliated by you again and again, shame and courage! Jinshan will be the cemetery and cemetery of the Tang Army! You can't retreat anymore, you can't lose again! Even if it's not for Goguryeo, just for the honor of the military! Decisive battle! Gold Mountain! Goguryeo's courage is commendable! However, there is also a difference in courage, there is the courage of a horseman, and there is the courage of a wise man! And the courage of Goguryeo is precisely not the latter!

Gao Wei is also a dog that can bully a dog that has been pulled out, and in the face of the rout army that has been defeated twice in a row by Qibi He Li and Xue Rengui, the Tang army actually fought "unfavorably" - in layman's terms, it was defeated! The consequences of this defeat are very severe! Something has happened! In the past, it was the Tang army that chased the Goguryeo army, but today, the Goguryeo army finally breathed a sigh of relief and could run after the Tang army! People who have been suppressed for a long time will be even more arrogant once they get their will! The morale of the Goguryeo army was greatly boosted, and "taking advantage of the victory to chase the north" - "The Treasure King of Goguryeo Benji in the History of the Three Kingdoms" More than 100,000 Goguryeo troops pursued the Goguryeo army with overwhelming momentum, after all, defeating the former victor was a great comfort and encouragement for the soldiers! If the Goguryeo army was allowed to chase after it like this, the efforts of He Li and Xue Rengui in front of him would all be in vain.

When the Goguryeo army was chasing the land. Xue Rengui is here! Xue Rengui's appearance is always very high-profile! At the foot of the garrison mountain, you can disrupt the army of 150,000 by yourself! Now, in Jinshan, Xue Rengui will once again prove his strength!

When they meet on a narrow road, the brave wins in the face of the swarming enemy army. Xue Rengui, who has already been appointed as the general of the Sanpin Zuo Wuwei, once again took the lead and led his troops to counterattack! Break through the Goguryeo army formation from the middle and divide more than 100,000 enemy troops in two. After breaking through in the middle, Xue Rengui once again ravaged the formation, rushing left and right, without fear. Treat 100,000 enemy soldiers as grass mustard ears, and treat the enemy formation as an idle court! Leaders are the best role models! The power of example is immense! Xue Rengui has already fought Goguryeo, and in the face of Xue Rengui, the Goguryeo army has also been beaten out of the psychological shadow. I'm afraid this ghostly figure will never be able to defeat. The psychological endurance of the Goguryeo army has reached its limit, and this person has defeated more than 400,000 troops of our Goguryeo, beheaded our two generals, Doufanglou and Wenshamen, killed more than 10,000 of our soldiers, and captured more than 100 of our generals and ministers...... In the face of this fierce god with Goguryeo blood on his hands, the Goguryeo army was completely defeated. History contains "breaking high (sentence) beauty, beheading more than 50,000 levels" - "Zizhi Tongjian"

The Battle of Jinshan is the pinnacle battle of Xue Rengui's life! Not only defeated more than 100,000 enemy troops. It is more than 50,000 levels of beheading! This behemoth has finally been crippled!

There are slight discrepancies in the historical records of the true number of enemies killed by Xue Rengui in this battle, I list them one by one, and the answers are not difficult for everyone to analyze by themselves: "(Goguryeo) the crowd is defeated, and the remaining 5,000 are beheaded" (Yu: Guó In the ancient war, the enemy's left ear was cut off to count the merits) - "New Tang Book" biography 36 "The thieves were defeated and beheaded more than 50,000 levels" - "Old Tang Book" biography 33 "Broke Gao (sentence) Li, beheaded more than 50,000 levels" - "Zizhi Tongjian" Tang Ji 17 "The thieves were defeated and beheaded more than 50,000 levels" - " Volume 986 of the Yuan Turtle of the Book of Foreign Ministers Levies the Fifth "Great Break, Beheading 50,000 Levels" - "New Tang Book" Biography 145 "Xue Rengui led troops to attack. killed more than 50,000 of our army" - "History of the Three Kingdoms" Goguryeo Benji 9...... Although there are discrepancies, everyone can see how many people have been killed!

The remaining tens of thousands of defeated troops scattered in a hurry, believing that they would not come to fight against the Tang army again. Obviously not at a level. It's a small matter to lose your life, but you are defeated by the same person again and again. What is the face!

Xue Rengui led the military might of victory and connected the three cities of Nansu (now Tiebei Mountain, Fushun, Liaoning), Mudi (now Muqi Town, Xinbin County, Liaoning), and Cangyan (now Tonghua South, Jilin) in one fell swoop. I rendezvoused with a deep boy from the direction of the domestic city. Here, Xue Rengui received a handwritten commendation order from Emperor Li Zhi: "The Jinshan Great Array, the fierce party is really numerous. Qing took the lead, desperately rushed left and right. Unstoppable, all the armies Jia Yong, to Skejie. It is advisable to make meritorious deeds, and all this is famous. ”

At this point, the northern territory of Goguryeo had been cut off by the Tang army in the east-west direction (specifically, you can refer to the map released on January 19, the city between the inner city in the east and the new city in the west has been conquered by the Tang army, and the area north of this line is completely isolated from Goguryeo itself). The area isolated in the north is commonly known as the Buyeo River, and the strategic location of the Buyeo River is Buyeo Castle.

As long as the heavy land of Fuyu City is conquered, the remaining cities in the northern part of Goguryeo will be lowered, and the Tang army can be assured that it will be difficult to enter boldly. After conquering Cangyan City, Xue Rengui let the army rest. Four months later, after the troops had finished resting, Xue Rengui decided to send troops to Fuyu City. However, Xue Rengui's suggestion was vetoed by the other generals, and their reason was: "few soldiers"! Xue Rengui has made up his mind, but there are few soldiers? It's okay, it's enough to give me 2,000 soldiers!

"In the Lord, the Lord will make good use of his ears, not more" - Xue Rengui Xue Rengui set off with 2,000 elite soldiers. Xue Rengui is by no means brave. The new city is in a battle, and Jinshan is fighting again. Not only did it defeat Goguryeo's determination to try to resist stubbornly, but more importantly, it inspired the high morale of our Tang Dynasty soldiers. Moreover, the two wars also made Xue Rengui famous! The next battle is no longer just a battle of swords and swords, but psychological warfare and deterrence warfare! At this time, the Goguryeo army was not only afraid of the outnumbered Tang army, but also the survival of the Tang army! As long as the Don Army appears in front of you, you have only two ways to go: be defeated, or surrender!

Xue Rengui set off with confidence! The enemy troops in Buyeo City may have regretted that they had not fought with Xue Rengui, the first general of the Gaozong Dynasty, so they actually "attacked the enemy's strengths with their own shortcomings" and went out of the city to block the attack. After all, it is much better to leave a record of "fighting with and being beheaded XX people" than only leaving a record of "looking at the wind and asking for surrender". Then I, Xue Rengui, will fulfill you! The course of the battle is simple. Shi Zai: "The thieves refused, counterattacked and broke it, killing more than 10,000 people." "The northern cities of Goguryeo have completely given up resistance!

On February 28, 668 A.D. (seven months before the death of Goguryeo), Xue Rengui conquered Buyeo City, "More than 40 cities in the Buyeo River are all looking at the wind and asking for surrender." "The northern part of Goguryeo was all subject to the Tang Dynasty. The north is flat. Xue Rengui created a safe and worry-free rear environment for Li Shiyun's army, so that Li Shiyun could let go south and march into Pyongyang. After pacifying the northern region of Goguryeo, Xue Rengui also led his army south, and his goal was also Pyongyang.

All right. The story of General Xue Rengui before the fall of Goguryeo (note that it was before the destruction) has also come to an end, and in the future, he will also become Li Shixian's deputy like Qibi He Li, and continue the battle for the destruction of Goguryeo together with Li Shixuan.

When General Xue made a big fuss about Goguryeo, several things happened, and the more interesting things happened. Let's take a step back. One of the things we tell us is that it's okay to be talented, but don't show off your talent. Otherwise, he will end up with the same fate as Yang Xiu of the Three Kingdoms, and he will be dismissed at least and beheaded at worst!

The above is the battle situation of the main force of the Tang army led by Li Shiyun, Qibi He Li, Xue Rengui and others, sweeping away the hostile forces of Goguryeo who dared to block the advance of the army. So what is the situation of the other divisions? Let's go back and look at each other, let's start with the exciting ones. The first way to deviate from the teacher: Hao Chujun "Qing (Hao Chujun)'s foresight is beyond everyone's reach" - Tang Gaozong Li Zhi 667 AD, about October! Under the city of An. Hao Chujun, who was already 60 years old, led the army to Anshi with the deputy chief of the march of Liaodong Province (a said to be the Hunjiang Road) and the secretary of the department. Everyone is familiar with the city of Anshi. Neither in the Sui nor the Tang Dynasty has ever been conquered. The defenders of Anshi City thought that their combat effectiveness was extraordinary, and after the 150,000 troops in the north were swallowed up by the Tang army. Still dare to take the initiative. However, this is not to blame them, Hao Chujun is too famous. First of all, let's get to know Mr. Hao Chujun, the deputy general manager, and I will try to introduce it briefly. Because this person showed his face this time in the military aspect. (Regarding the introduction of Hao Chujun, I will summarize his life in one word.) Different from the previous introduction to the generals. Hao Chujun, a native of Anlu, Anzhou (now Anlu, Hubei), likes to read, and is the official to the Zhongshu Ling (Prime Minister), the prince Shaobao, and was posthumously presented as the Kaifu Yitong Sansi after his death. Absolute high-ranking official, the evaluation given to him by later generations mainly includes: outspoken and daring, honest and honest officials, etc. Not only is he a big official, but he is also a good official! In addition, he also has an identity that can climb relatives with celebrities through the ages, and the relationship is not too far away - the poet immortal Li Bai. Li Bai's father-in-law is Hao Chujun's cousin! Well, Li Bai was born, and it will take more than 30 years to see what is happening now. When Hao led the army to the city of Anshi, the army was in a mess, and he didn't even set up the formation first, so he hid in the tent and sat on a deck chair to drink and drink. The defenders of Anshi are still good at discovering military aircraft, and looking at this scene, 30,000 troops galloped in! The Tang army on this side "did not have time to form a column", and the enemy army on that side had already "covered". (The so-called "covering" means to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and empty defenses to attack suddenly.) At this time, the Tang army was horrified! (Familiar, Zhang Liang was taught once in Jian'an City.) Hurry up and report it. The difference between Hao Chujun and Zhang Liang is evident at this time! Fiction and reality, reality and fiction! 30,000 Goguryeo defenders rushed towards the defenseless and unformed Tang army! The main force of 150,000 was annihilated, dozens of cities were conquered, and the morale had dropped to the extreme, and Goguryeo at this time needed a victory to boost morale. The Goguryeo army, which had the belief of "victory", rushed towards the Tang army, which looked chaotic. One hit wins!

When they were about to rush to the gathering place of the Tang army, Goguryeo found that the chaotic Tang soldiers had spread out on both flanks and split in two. Don't rejoice too early in the Goguryeo army, because from the rear of the chaotic Tang army, a fierce elite army rushed out! History: "(The Tang Army) defeated it" - the thirty-fourth Hao Chujun in the "Old Tang Book" Biography It turns out that the chaotic scene presented by your Tang Army is all an illusion? Since then, later generations have one more evaluation of Hao Chujun: "Courage to skip others"! After defeating the defenders of Anshi, Hao Chujun led his troops to continue south, and his goal was also: Pyongyang! The second way is biased: Guo Beifeng, the head of Jili Road, is smart but is mistaken by cleverness! Guo Beifeng is the son of the famous general Guo Xiaoke, Guo Xiaoke will frequently appear in our field of vision in the future, and he is an absolute famous general in the early Tang Dynasty, but it is a pity that his son Guo Beifeng did not inherit his father's military talent. Guo was tasked with leading the sailors up the Taedong River to Pyongyang. There is an incident around this road, which will give us a great reference. However, the protagonist of the story is not Guo Beifeng, but another person: Yuan Wanqing! The story goes like this: when Guo Zhifeng led his troops to arrive at the city of Pyongyang, Li Shichang was still far away near the Saga River on the Yalu River, and Guo Zhifeng was here waiting for Li Shichang's army to arrive and attack the city together, waiting for the grain and grass to be gone, so Li Shichang sent Feng Shiben to take the Yellow Sea to Guo Beifeng by water, but the grain ship was in distress at sea and sank! Grain and grass were not delivered! Guo was in a hurry, so he planned to write a letter asking for help to Li Shiyun, but he was afraid that Goguryeo would intercept the letter halfway, so he learned that the Tang army was false and real, so he made a clutch poem with the content of asking for help with grain and grass to Li Shiyun. What Guo Beifeng didn't know was that the poem he made, not to mention falling into the hands of Goguryeo, was in the hands of Li Shiyun, and it was not a simple matter to be able to figure it out.

Li Shiji marched and fought in the army, but it was a little worse to chant poetry and music, after all, Li Shiji was a famous military strategist, not a writer, nor a poet! When he received this clutch poem from Guo Zhifeng at first glance, Li Shiji not only didn't understand it, but also got angry! The consequences of the general manager's anger are very strict: Now that the military situation is urgent, are you still in the mood to compose poetry? I'm going to kill you! Yuan Wanqing, the marching manager (clerk) who followed Li Shiji on the expedition, felt that something was wrong, and Guo Zhifeng had nothing to do to compose poetry? It was definitely not here to entertain Li Shiji, so he took a look at the letter, and he saw it. I told Li Shiji the true meaning of Guo Beifeng's poem. So, Li Shiji re-sent people to transport grain to Guo Zhifeng. (To be continued.) )
