Chapter 50: Destroying Beijing and Observing Pyongyang

Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng once said: The anger of the Son of Heaven will ambush millions of corpses and shed thousands of miles of blood. … ≦ top novel,

Although Luo Shixin is not so domineering, he is not an easy person. His anger directly led to the extermination of the Black Water Clan. The remnants of the old and weak women and children of the Black Water Tatar tribe were simply not enough to survive in the harsh environment, and they were directly swallowed up and annihilated by other barbarians in the surrounding area. The ancestors of the Jin and Qing dynasties, who endangered the Han people in the Central Plains in the future, directly let Luo Shixin be destroyed thousands of years ago.

Agulang is not lying, stinky dung grass is indeed the antidote to curare.

Luo Shixin also expelled Agu Lang from the barracks alone as promised, although Agu Lang was proud to live, but he did not have the face to live, after being driven out of the barracks, he returned to the tribe to see the clansmen without shame, and directly hit the boulder at the foot of the mountain, and died on the spot.

In this regard, Luo Shixin just shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and Agu Lang couldn't stop him from wanting to die early. Letting him go, he is already extraordinarily gracious, and he will care about his life or death.

Solving the problem of arrow wounds of soldiers, Luo Shixin spent all his thoughts on forcing Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen to surrender.

The 100,000 troops led by Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen this time are the only remaining troops and horses in Goguryeo, and Goguryeo has no spare strength to rescue its own army trapped in the north, and the only thing Luo Shixin has to do is to prevent Goguryeo from breaking through.

In the face of the siege of Li Daozong, Su Dingfang, and Qibi He Li, as well as the support of Luo Shixin sitting in the Chinese army, Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen organized six breakouts in two days, and finally let the three generals fight back.

Two days later, Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen had run out of ammunition. Although they still have nearly 60,000 soldiers in their hands, all of them are defeated, and they have no fighting spirit. The two of them thought about it, and there was really no way out. Chose to abandon the weapon and surrender.

Luo Shixin cherishes his soldiers and horses, and does not fight meaningless battles. Their surrender was accepted.

Going north to the military camp at the foot of the mountain, facing the great military might of the Tang Army, Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen bowed down and walked on their knees, entered the military gate, and bowed to ask for their lives.

Luo Shixin accepted their surrender with a smile, confiscated weapons and horses, and accepted the Qubu led by Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen.

Faced with the extra 60,000 people, Luo Shixin had a headache.

These more than 60,000 people were all Goguryeo soldiers, and there were too many of them. It's hard to control, and with them, food consumption is also astronomical. can't be of great use, and it's a group of foodies, and taking it with you will do more harm than good.

Luo Shixin used the captives to save the physical strength of the Tang army, and arranged them to do the most dangerous, hardest and most tiring work. Make use of them and reduce the unnecessary consumption of the Don army. But if there are too many prisoners to a certain extent, it will become a burden. In the past, Xiang Yukeng's killing of Qin soldiers was not necessarily because of his own thirst for killing and brutality. In his case at the time. The 200,000 Qin soldiers were not helpers but a burden, a time bomb that could backfire.

Now Luo Shixin is also in this situation, plus Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen's 60,000 captives. The number of Goguryeo soldiers in Luo Shixin's hands will be as high as 100,000, even more than the total number of soldiers and horses that can be used in his hands. The consumption of 100,000 soldiers. Even if Luo Shixin reduced their consumption of food and drink, it would be a large expense. Luo Shixin's attack on Goguryeo was not to conquer, but to turn Goguryeo into their Tang territory. You can't learn from Xiang Yu to kill like that.

Just when he was worried about these captives, Liaodong Gao Shilian helped Luo Shixin solve this problem.

Because Goguryeo and Sui and Tang dynasties were feuding, the border between the two countries was deserted for hundreds of miles, and it was very barren.

Now that Liaodong has been recovered, Liaodong and Youzhou should carry out exchanges, but there is no bridge of communication between the two sides, and the barren area of 100 miles separated from each other is always a hurdle, hindering the exchange between Liaodong and Youzhou.

Gao Shilian intended to build a town market between Youzhou and Liaodong, following the example of the free market advocated by Luo Shixin in Shuofang, to provide the need for travel between the two places.

Youzhou is a boundary with Goguryeo in Liaodong and even further northeast, and although Youzhou is located in the north, it is still quite obvious throughout the year. However, the regional climate in eastern Liaoning is completely different, with obvious differences. All kinds of environments are much harsh, and there are no different special products in different climates, especially in Changbai Mountain, where all kinds of rare resources are countless. This Youzhou and Liaodong have different environments and different materials, and they have great development space for each other.

It's just that the two places have belonged to different countries for hundreds of years, and there has been no good trade development, Gao Shilian saw this clearly, and planned to rebuild a town market to open up the exchanges between Youzhou and Liaodong.

What this town market needs is not houses, not land, but people, as long as there are people, everything will be there, but without people, even high-rise buildings are useless.

Fill the captives in the newly built town fairs, give them land and houses, and make them live in semi-compulsory houses. Over time, they became the original inhabitants of the newly built town market.

"But Mr. Gao really looks up to me!" Luo Shixin smiled at the Liaodong Changshi sent by Gao Shilian and said, "Go back and tell your chief manager, so that he can build a new city with peace of mind." I will not let his hard work be in vain. ”

The resources of Liaodong are limited, this is a well-known thing, and the real treasure lies in Changbai Mountain.

The success of the hub connecting Youzhou and Liaodong lies not in how much financial and material resources Gao Shilian in Liaodong invests in the new city, but whether Luo Shixin can take Changbai Mountain. As long as Changbai Mountain is won, no matter how little investment in the new city is, as long as there is this bazaar, there will be no worries about prosperity. No one in the world is a fool and does not earn a good profit.

Roshisin's simple words are undoubtedly a declaration of victory.

"But before I can capture Goguryeo, I need to do one important thing." Luo Shixin looked at the north and said lightly.

He gave all the 100,000 captives he had collected to Gao Shilian and continued to advance into the depths of Goguryeo.

If it is said that Luo Shixin's capture of Liaodong caused a shock in Goguryeo, this capture of Anshi City, Beishan forced Gao Yanshou to surrender, and Gao Huizhen really caused Goguryeo's panic......

After this defeat, the whole country of Goryeo was shocked, and the defenders of Huangcheng and Yincheng all fled, and there was no one for hundreds of miles.

Yuangai Suwen also ordered the defenders of the domestic city to withdraw to Pyongyang, abandon all defensive lines around it, and defend Pyongyang to the death.

Luo Shixin did not encounter any resistance along the way, and they first went to Beisha City to join the naval army led by Zhang Zhenzhou and Cheng Mingzhen.

This time, Luo Shixin was able to fight so smoothly, and it was inseparable from Zhang Zhenzhou and Cheng Mingzhen's attack on Beisha City to contain and threaten Pyongyang, because they ate and lived in Beisha City, so that Yuangai Suwen could have a concern and did not dare to come to Anshi City to fight against Luo Shixin with the strength of the whole country. After the Beisha City was captured by the two generals Zhang Zhenzhou and Cheng Mingzhen, Yuangai Suwen personally wanted to recapture Beisha, but in the face of Zhang Zhenzhou and Cheng Mingzhen's strict defense, they could not help them by all means.

With the cooperation of the two armies of the Tang Waterway, coupled with the 20,000 soldiers and horses of Qibi He Li, the available troops in Luo Shixin's hands once again exceeded 100,000, and Goguryeo has disabled the Tang army led by Luo Shixin little by little, and the current available troops are no more than 40,000.

The 100,000-strong army crossed the Yalu River and drove straight into the Sashui River......

There is a majestic building on the banks of the Sashui River...... Jingguan, a building made of Han Chinese corpses piled up to show off their exploits.

In the past, because of Yang Guang's blind command, the Sui Dynasty could not capture the Liaodong City defended by Yuanziyou and Yuanbin, so it had to change its tactics, and the general Yuwenshu led an army of 300,000 troops to cross the Liaodong Zhucheng and advance to the Yalu River, and attacked Pyongyang with the naval army from the north and south. In Luo Shixin's view, his style of play is the most idiotic and stupid, which is enough to show how incompetent Yang Guang is in the military. Maybe he has been the nominal coach for many years, and he wants to be a veritable commander-in-chief, but he is arrogant and arrogant, and he doesn't know how many pounds and taels he has.

Yu Wenshu's army encountered a big problem as soon as it was divided, from Liaodong City to the Yalu River was mountainous, and it was extremely difficult to replenish it, and each Sui army had to carry not only weapons, but also tents, clothing, and dry rations for a hundred days. The Sui soldiers were not fought with iron, and under this kind of overload, the march of the Sui army on the mountain road became a serious problem: even the army that was in a problem with normal hurry, still expected them to win the battle?

In order to be able to complete Yang Guang's order, the Sui soldiers had to throw away the food to reduce their burden, and as a result, they fell into the dilemma of lack of food halfway.

Under the command of Yang Guang, the Sui soldiers had not yet encountered the enemy, and they could no longer bear it. Goguryeo's military god Eulji Wendeok saw through the weakness of the Sui army's lack of food, fought and retreated, and introduced the Sui army into the hinterland of Goguryeo, Sashui, and just when the Sui army crossed Sashui, the Goguryeo army descended from the sky and launched a fierce attack on the Sui army. The hungry Sui army was unable to fight any longer, and the armies collapsed at the slightest touch, and fled in the wilderness.

In the end, the Sui army ran hundreds of miles, until the Yalu River was free from the pursuit of the Goguryeo army, and only 1,000 of the 300,000 troops who crossed the Yalu River fled back to Liaodong, and the ordnance and materials were completely lost.

Goguryeo piled up the corpses of hundreds of thousands of Sui soldiers who had died in battle, and built it into a show of force in Jingguan, which was on the banks of the Sashui River: the decisive battle site for Goguryeo's ambush of Sui soldiers.

Looking at the magnificent scale of Jingguan, Luo Shixin ordered with a little sadness, "Demolish Jingguan for me, be careful, try not to affect the remains of the martyrs as much as possible, collect all the remains for me carefully, and take them home after our triumph!" ”

The atmosphere was not warm, it was very sad.

Especially Zuo Tiancheng, Zhao Dezhu, Li Yuncong, these Sui soldiers, they indignantly dismantled the Jingguan and carefully collected the corpses: the Jingguan was their pain, and the corpses were the most important feelings in their hearts.

"Soldiers, remember this scene well and record this Jingguan in your mind! If we fail, this is our example...... So, we have only one way to go! Luo Shixin said in a low voice, his voice was not loud but deep and could be transmitted far away. The soldiers who heard his words did not shout, but one by one showed a firm belief in victory.
