Therefore, Liu Yin did not choose to send troops at this time, but made full preparations and set the time for sending troops in the spring of the next year. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, Youzhou, after more than a year of recovery, has already achieved initial results, when Murong Xianbei retreated, almost all the towns and villages except for the three cities of Jixian, Yuyang, and Changli were burned, creating a miserable thousands of miles of no man's land, this blood feud is naturally to be returned to Murong Xianbei.
However, to march to Liaodong, Liu Yin still has to think carefully. Murong Xianbei, Yuwen Xianbei, and Duanbu Xianbei have been crippled in the battle of Liaoxi, they abandoned the base area in Liaoxi, absconded to Liaodong, and took refuge in Goguryeo.
In fact, Goguryeo is not a strong opponent, compared with the Xiongnu Xianbei in the desert, Goguryeo, which is located in the northeast corner, is much weaker, at most disturbing the Liaodong area, and has never been a major threat to the Central Plains Dynasty.
Goguryeo originated in Fuyu, and in the Western Han Dynasty, the Buyeo prince Jumeng fled to Goguryeo County, Xuansu County, because he lost the battle for the throne with other princes, and established a separate country there called Goguryeo.
Since the founding of the country, Goguryeo has been fighting endlessly with the Buyeo Kingdom, which is in the north and Goguryeo in the south, bordering the Liaodong counties of the Han Dynasty, so the Liaodong counties are often harassed by it.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liaodong was occupied by the separatist forces of the Gongsun clan, due to the strength of the Gongsun clan, Goguryeo repeatedly invaded, but there was no result, but Gongsun Kang broke through the capital, lost his division and lost his land, and was forced to move the capital to Marudu.
However, after Gongsun Yuan was eliminated by Sima Yi, Goguryeo reverted to rampant and invaded Liaodong again, and later Wei sent a large army to conquer Goguryeo, destroying the city of Marudu, and causing Goguryeo to suffer a heavy blow. However, Goguryeo can be called an unbeatable little powerhouse, taking advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains, they not only rebuilt the city of Marudu, but also took advantage of the Jin State to be on the verge of flawless northward Gu, once again invaded Liaodong, and captured many cities in Liaodong.
If that nation is the most obscene, it is estimated that Goguryeo is unmatched, in terms of combat power, it can't beat the Gongsun clan in Liaodong, and it can't beat the army of Wei, but it can always find a suitable opportunity, constantly harassing the counties of Liaodong, just like a piece of kraft candy, sticky, can't shake it off, can't be extinguished, it really makes the Central Plains Dynasty more headache.
After all, Liaodong is too far away from the Central Plains, and many times the Central Plains Dynasty is flawless, especially when the fierce battle in the Central Plains is in full swing, it is impossible for anyone to be distracted to think about the affairs of Liaodong, which undoubtedly gives Goguryeo a chance to be like a fish in water in Liaodong again and again.
Ji Han has already unified the Central Plains and pacified the desert, and how to punish the stubborn disease of Goguryeo in Liaodong is an urgent problem to be solved in front of Liu Yin. Although Goguryeo never became the great enemy of the Central Plains Dynasty, and its army never reached Liaoxi, its scourge on Liaodong never stopped, and it was impossible to maintain a stable northeastern border without solving Goguryeo.
What's more, now that Goguryeo and Murong Xianbei and other remnants of the Xianbei clan are colluding together, in order to avoid the resurgence of Murong Xianbei and other remnant forces, Liu Yin must also march into Liaodong to eliminate this scourge.
But to deal with Goguryeo, but not like to deal with Tuoba Xianbei, swept all the way, God blocked and killed God, Buddha blocked and killed Buddha, and finally forced Xianbei to surrender.
The reason for this is that although the Mengxi grassland is vast, it is a flat river, and no matter where the Xianbei people flee, the cavalry of the Han army can always catch up, and they have nothing to escape.
But Goguryeo is different, their territory is almost all in the Changbai Mountain, the vast primeval forest, almost a natural labyrinth, if Goguryeo escapes into the deep mountains, even if the Han army exhausts its strength, I am afraid it will not be able to search it out.
This is probably the reason why Goguryeo remained immortal even after being hit hard repeatedly, when the army of Gongsun and the army of Wei broke through the capital of Goguryeo twice, but they could not completely destroy Goguryeo. The Goguryeo people hibernate in the deep mountains and old forests, with the protection of the primeval forest, the army of Gongsun and the army of Wei naturally have no way to take them, and after they retreated, the Goguryeo people stretched out the **** Dongshan to make a comeback, and once again harassed the counties of Liaodong, so that the Han people were angry and hateful but helpless.
Liu Yin wanted to deal with Goguryeo this time, so naturally he couldn't be like the Wei State before, after breaking Goguryeo's pill capital city, he thought that it was a great success, and the class teacher returned to the dynasty. If you want to fight, you have to fight harder, and the Goguryeo people will really hurt, so that they will no longer dare to covet Liaodong.
Therefore, in terms of the number of troops, Liu Yin could not deal with Tuoba Xianbei like he did, and the three-way army came out together, sweeping all the way like a bamboo. For a nation as obscene as Goguryeo, it is estimated that as soon as the Ji Han army is coming, the first thought is not how to resist but how to escape, if the battle has not yet been fought in Goguryeo and fled to the mountains, then Liu Yin's military operation is undoubtedly a failure, because Liu Yin cannot put so many troops in Liaodong, but as soon as you leave, the Goguryeo people will come back to attack, and the situation in Liaodong will inevitably fall into a dead end.
Therefore, Liu Yin's men and horses to march into Liaodong were not too prepared, the three cavalry armies of the Tiger Cavalry Army, the Qinglong Army, and the White Tiger Army, plus the three infantry armies of the Hubu Army, the Wudang Flying Army and the Yang'an Army, totaled more than 90,000 troops.
90,000 people, not too much, not too little, just at a knot, if it is too little, it will be much more difficult to deal with the remnants of Goguryeo and Xianbei, after all, there are tens of thousands of remnants of Xianbei such as Murong Xianbei who fled into Liaodong, and the detailed number of Goguryeo's men and horses is not clear, but it will definitely not be less than 100,000. If there are too many words, I am afraid that the Goguryeo people will feel afraid and cowardly before fighting.
The Han army of 90,000 people entered Liaodong, and at the same time, it could also reduce the pressure of logistics supply, after all, Liaodong was still thousands of miles away from Jixian County, Youzhou, and the weight of grain and grass was also a headache.
