Chapter 28: The Plan of Suspense

Pei is obtained, Pei is the official name, and the real name is obtained, this person is the right-hand man of the palace civil affairs, known as the virtuous minister. According to the consistent thinking, small can not make a big one, how much power do we have in Goguryeo, just relying on the high mountains and rivers to be able to lie on the side of China, then we should honestly pay attention to internal affairs, and it is not good to brush China's tiger whiskers. If you really have the idea of strengthening the army and expanding the land, you can do it, but first, you must first govern the country, so that the people have food and clothing, the treasury is full, and the equipment is excellent, and then you can send troops; Second, there is still a lot of money in the south, and there is a husband in the north, which is enough for you to fight, so why bother to provoke the huge China?

It's just that the palace is ambitious and has always coveted the fertile soil of Liaodong. At that time, Yuehao, Fuyu and other places were still wild and remote, there were no fertile fields, there were few residents, and there was no development of Goguryeo. Therefore, he has always relied heavily on the domestic affairs, and on the military side, he has completely refused to listen to the opinions he has received.

Gu Hina Jia is located, Gu Hina Jia is the official name, and the name is his real name, he is a cousin of the palace, the son of the eldest uncle, Bachi. I wanted to compete with Yiyimo for the throne at the beginning, and fled to Liaodong after defeating, but he failed to take his son Daju away and remained in Goguryeo. In order to envelop the old department of Baqi, Yiyimo and the father and son of the palace did not embarrass the position, but instead sealed the high position of Gu Hina - the corresponding Han position is Da Honglu, who is responsible for foreign affairs.

His father died in Liaodong for unknown reasons, and he always wanted to kill the past to investigate the matter clearly, and also transported his father's remains back to his hometown for burial. And as long as the army is sent to the west, the palace will inevitably take the throne - Baqi can take away 30,000 households of citizens at the beginning. You'll have to rely on the appeal of the position to get those guys back. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to grasp a certain amount of military power. Maybe there will be a chance to regain the throne - even if the countrymen supported his uncle Yiyimo to succeed him. After Yiyimo died, the throne should be passed to me, your throne is just an illegitimate son with no name, why did you get the inheritance right over me?!

Regarding the dark psychology of the position, the palace is naturally vigilant. Although he was in favor of sending troops to defend against the Wei army, he was not at ease about handing over the military power to this cousin. According to the report of the spies, the Wei army entered the territory through Xuandi County, and it was inevitable to pass through the Bone City of Susheng. So the palace planned to lead his division to fight to the death with the Wei army on the boiling water near the Susheng Bone City.

He said: "The bones of the Buddha are where the old capital is; Boiling water, the land where my ancestor Zhu Mengzhao built a country. If you face the Wei army there, you will be blessed by your ancestors, and you will win! ”

But then a minister proposed: "Although I have a secret agreement with Lelang, Lelang is also a Wei subordinate." Now I heard that Wei Shuai is Xun, he and Liu Yi are gracious, and Liu Yi will not abandon the alliance to attack Ye? If you cross the muddy water and go north, you don't need to reach the Mazi waterfront in ten days. In this way, the national capital is in danger! ”

The palace twisted and pondered. It's a real problem, so you have to guard against it......

If Lelang didn't have Liu Yi, or the situation of scattered sand in the last years of the Han Dynasty, maybe the Goguryeo people would not have any defenses against the southern front, and maybe Wei Yan's sailors would be able to easily kill under the city of Marudu without hindrance. It's not that the Goguryeo people are stupid, but they have limited vision, and they don't know that there are such a huge boat masters in the world who can go up the river - when Goguryeo invaded Xi'an Ping along this road before, it was not yet the wet season, and the coastal roads were still walkable; Now that there have been reports that the water in Mazi has flooded and washed out the road in many places, are you still worried that the Wei army will kill you from this road?

Yes, the Goguryeo people also knew that Mazi could sail on the water, but the problem was that in terms of the level of shipping in such a landlocked country, they did not think that enough troops could be transported by water. Besides, there is also a water village at the foot of Marudu Mountain, I have more than a dozen warships and hundreds of sailors, which is enough to block the water.

However, after Liu Yi was stationed in Lelang, the whole army has been reorganized and armed over the years, and it has become a big trouble for Goguryeo. That's why Wei Gong wanted to pretend to be friendly with Liu Yi, and even occasionally sent troops to attack Liu Yi, he was aware of Liu Yi's independent tendency, so he hoped to be able to ensure the safety of the southern front. Now that Liu Yi is likely to be dragged into the chariot by Shi Xun and break the alliance to attack, then it is very unwise to not put heavy troops on the southern front to block.

The final result of the discussion was that 4,000 soldiers and horses were temporarily stuffed into the twelve fortified villages between Mazishui and Zhuanshui to guard against Lelang. Don't seek to retreat from the enemy, as long as you can stumble the footsteps of the Lelang army, it is enough, and when the palace destroys the main force of the Wei army in front of you, Liu Yi has to take the initiative to retreat.

After searching the palace, he got an army of 27,000 troops, and he came to the city of bones - he took the throne with him, and the one who ordered him to stay in the royal capital.

Let's say that there are countless tributaries of Mazi Water, the largest one is called Muddy Water, which comes from the northern mountains and twists and turns, and the Bone City is located on the north shore of the big turn of Muddy Water. Muddy water also has a tributary, that is, boiling water, which pours muddy water into the east of the city of Susheng Bone. The army led by the palace was stationed on the west bank of the boiling water, and the Susheng Bone City was in a situation, like a cloth pocket, waiting for the enemy.

But he waited for the Wei army to come on the left and the Wei army to the right—his heart said that the intelligence was wrong, and the Wei army didn't come up this way? If the march is really so slow, and it is about to enter winter, when the water will turn into ice, and we locals don't want to fight in that climate, do you people who have come from afar have even the slightest chance of winning?

So he scattered the sentry spies and messengers, and reconnoitred everywhere to see where there were still traces of the Wei army.

A few days later, two messages were reported to the big account at the same time. A piece of news is that the army of Cao Wei was finally found in the north, and the city was slaughtered and the village was destroyed, and although the speed of the march was slow, it was very steady, and there was no soldier or even a civilian family in the rear of the army. It turns out that the Wei army did not come to my hinterland, but plundered on the road, wanting to encroach on my land, relocate my population, and weaken my strength! I've been waiting for them here for so many days, why don't you just go ahead and drive them back out of the country completely?

He immediately raised his hands in agreement, saying that the king, you give me a brigade of divisions, and I will be the first, and I will definitely be able to capture the main force of the Wei army and completely defeat it. However, the rest of the generals all expressed their opposition - the population settlements of our country are all near the Susheng Bone City and the Pill Mountain City, and there are only a few residents in the north, and the Wei people can take them away if they want to. Their progress is slow, and when it comes to winter, they will inevitably have to withdraw their troops, and after the spring of next year, we will go to Liaodong to grab a vote, and this loophole will naturally be filled. Now that the army has been formed, waiting for work, if the Wei army comes, it will be broken by me; But if you break away from the inherent position and go north to meet the Wei army, then the situation of the host and guest will be dispositioned, and the victory or defeat will not be easy to say.

Your Majesty, you have not given the order to empty all the stockades on the northern front, and all the men, horses, and residents have retreated to the camp, so as to lure the Wei people to advance quickly and enter our ambush circle.

Wei Gong nodded, feeling that this statement was reasonable. I was about to ignore the clamor of the position and order the removal of the villages on the North Road, when suddenly news came, saying that countless large ships of the Wei people were going up the horse and water, and they were already approaching the mountain city of Marudu! The surprise of the palace is really extraordinary-"What kind of boat did he take, how many soldiers and horses, and dared to go deep into my realm?!" ”

If Cao Zhen's troops and the Goguryeo army were really in battle, and Wei Yan would enter the city of Marudu Mountain, then there would be no suspense in this battle, and the Wei army on the north and south roads would not have telephones and telegrams, so the cooperation would not be so perfect. Cao Zhen marched steadily according to the strategy given by Shixun, no matter how much he urged the young man, he always refused to continue to advance without sweeping away the surrounding enemy soldiers and civilians. It's also anxious after the recovery, saying that your march is so slow, if you wait for the sailors to arrive at the enemy capital first, we can't get credit or a trivial matter, Goguryeo can break the south road first, and then defend my north road, and break it one by one, so what can I do? You're too cautious!

Cao Zhen said: "This captain taught me the time, and he taught me not to rush in." Now I am moving forward slowly, and the back road is worry-free, that is, Guli will break the south road first, and then come to the enemy and me, and it will not cause great damage. I am in the north, and Juli is like a thorn in his back, even if he breaks the south road, he does not dare to chase it deeply. No blame alone and no worries about rushing forward, he first breaks me, and then seeks Nanye? "Stick to the established policy and absolutely refuse to accelerate.

As for the southern route, in fact, the marching speed of Xiahoulan and Wei Yan was already much slower than planned. The key lies in the direction of the wind, at the beginning there was still an east wind, and the ship was unhindered, but then it changed to a west wind, and the head wind and the upstream were upstream, and the speed of the ship was outrageously slow. Wei Yan had no choice but to discuss with Xiahou Lan and send his foot soldiers to get off the boat and take turns pulling fiber. The problem is that the upper reaches of the water are flooded in many places, cutting off the road, and when they encounter those sections, the foot soldiers sink half of their bodies in the mud, and they can't pull the big boat at all if they slip one step at all.

And most of the boats are sea-boats, so they are not equipped with big oars, and when they encounter these sections, they are almost moved by foot and inch. Wei Yan said that this is not good, our army must march quickly in order to play the role of a surprise attack, if it is as slow as the northern road, it is really easy to be broken by the enemy one by one.

Xia Houlan said that you put down the infantry and forget it, let's go south to detour, maybe we can go faster. However, he immediately consulted the Goguryeo guide and learned that there were only a few mountain roads in the south of Mazishui that connected the east and west, and there were many cottages built in dangerous places......

Xia Houlan stomped her feet and said, "Liu Yi is hateful! If you are willing to send troops to the north and cooperate with me, it will not be difficult to break the village! He didn't know that Shi Xun had given Liu Yi a strict order, just knowing that before Shi Xun arrived in Xiangping, there was an order to Lelang, but he didn't see Liu Yi rushing to meet.

During the discussion, Deng Ai suddenly stood up and asked for an order, saying that I have calculated, there are still thirteen temporarily detained boats in the army, which are flexible in action and complete with oars, and I am willing to lead three hundred elite soldiers to take these small boats to the north first, so as to reach the city of Marudu Mountain. As long as our banner is revealed, the enemy army will be shocked, and Goguryeo will definitely transfer the main force to meet the battle. The two generals are on the big ship, as long as they maneuver well, they can be safe, and General Cao of the North Road will have a chance to capture the Bone City. Even if you finally take the mountain city of Bumaru, it will not be in vain if you can capture the Susheng Bone.

Xia Houlan glared: "Shi Zai is not crazy?" "How did you come up with such a dangerous plan?! (To be continued......)
