Chapter 259: The Fall of Goryeo (Third Update, Ask for Subscription)
Knock knock!
The drums of war sounded, and the Sui army, after destroying the Goryeo reinforcements, began to attack the city of Pyongyang.
One by one, the ladders were erected, and the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty were climbing, and then they were killed. Then one by one, the trebuchets began to throw stones, fire bombs.
One by one, the soldiers set up a high platform in the distance and began to shoot into the city.
The Goryeo soldiers in the city were condescending and began to throw rolling wooden thunder stones, shoot arrows, or golden soup.
Siege warfare has entered a tragic stage, and people are dying all the time.
But Li Yuan was under the city, but his face was expressionless.
War, where there are the undead.
Even if it is commanded by Bai Qi Han Xin, there will be deaths, and many people will die.
But as long as the city is captured, as long as Goryeo is destroyed, everything is worth it.
The people of the Central Plains, there are many people who have no land and little land, they can be described as poor and white, there is nothing, only a rotten life, if they die in Liaodong, the court will send thirty acres of land.
If you survive and build up your military exploits, you can get one step closer.
Similarly, many Shu landlords have some fields at home, and their ancestors have also been brilliant, but now they are not high or low, they are much inferior to the family, and they are much stronger than the poor at the bottom.
also took advantage of this opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune.
Fighting a war is a shortcut to promotion and wealth.
At ordinary times, there is the pressure of the family, and it is not their turn to be promoted and rich, and now on a large number of battlefields, fighting with their lives is an opportunity, as long as they don't die, they are people.
"Father, more than 20,000 people have died!"
At this moment, Li Jiancheng spoke, "We have been attacking for five days in a row, and the losses are huge. Why don't you stop and catch your breath! ”
Li Yuan said indifferently: "Ci is not in charge of the army, only 20,000 people died, too little." Before 50,000 people died, it was a small thing. We are tired, we have many casualties, but the Koreans also suffer heavy casualties! ”
"Our Sui army is advancing from north to south, pressing step by step, steadily and steadily, Goryeo takes care of both ends, and it is no longer bearable!"
"Yes!"
Li Jiancheng said.
The army is going on, going on the offensive.
Li Yuan held the hilt of the sword, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes.
Yang Guang's mother, Li Yuan's mother, is a half-sister.
Yang Guang should call him cousin.
Because of this relationship, Emperor Sui gave him the commander of the southern front to go to Goryeo, and also told him how to fight Goryeo, how to fight Goryeo, how to fight step by step, how to ally with Silla, how to attack, and so on.
In the early stage of the war, a large amount of grain and grass was given, as well as various elite soldiers and horses.
It's trust, but it's also pressure.
Once something goes wrong, even if you don't raid your home, it's completely refrigerated.
He can't afford to lose, and he doesn't dare to lose.
Knock knock!
The next day, the Sui army roared and began to attack Pyongyang.
The city of Pyongyang was broken, but the Goryeo army still resisted.
Li Yuan ordered: "Wash the city for three days, don't kill the women, don't kill the men below the wheel, kill all the rest, and don't leave the chickens and dogs!" ”
The Sui army began to attack, sacking the city.
Li Yuan watched from outside the city, his expression still indifferent.
After more than a year of fierce fighting, the Sui army suffered heavy losses, and the soldiers were tired, so they needed to keep venting, otherwise they were afraid of mutiny and roaring.
……
Li Yuan led an army of 100,000 troops, broke the city of Pyongyang, sacked it for three days, and then burned Pyongyang. Soon led the army to the north, and then with Zhang Xutuo one south and one north, together to besiege Liaodong, Liaodong was broken, and Goryeo died! ”
Looking at the twists and turns, Xiang Yu was very satisfied.
After more than ten years of preparation and more than a year of attacking, Goryeo was finally destroyed.
In this battle, Li Yuan performed well.
Li Yuan led an army of 50,000, and again with an army of 50,000 in Silla, to attack Goryeo from the southern front, constantly attacking, attacking sharply and fiercely.
In particular, he encircled the point and sent reinforcements, annihilated 30,000 reinforcements from Goryeo, and killed the great master Cailin.
In the end, it was more suitable for Zhang Xutuo to attack from the north and south and conquer Goryeo.
In this war, it was fought remarkably.
Most importantly, Li Yuan rarely makes mistakes.
At the beginning of this war, Xiang Yu prepared for the worst, such as the army on the southern front being defeated and encircled and annihilated; Or the army of the Northern Front, where there is not enough food and grass, and the whole army collapses, etc.
Thankfully, none of these accidents happened.
The best situation has emerged.
"Li Yuan......"
Xiang Yu sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, those who have the ability can make a career anywhere.
Li Yuan is Yang Guang's cousin.
Li Yuan, overthrew the Sui Dynasty and founded the Tang Dynasty.
Once, Xiang Yu wanted to find some excuses to kill Li Yuan directly, but finally gave up, because the symptoms were not cured.
Liu Yu is alive, does the family dare to rebel?
Yuwen Yong is alive, does Yang Jian dare to rebel?
Chai Rong is alive, does Zhao Kuangyin dare to rebel?
Can't!
Can't!
In the same way, if he is alive, will Li Yuan rebel?
No!
Li Yuan's character is extremely cautious, such a cautious character, as long as he is not forced to a dead end, he will not rebel at all, and he is a relative, which can be used.
If relatives are not reliable, are outsiders reliable?
Of course, if Li Yuan made a big mistake, he would not be pardoned, but directly killed.
……
At this time, the Luoyang family began to rebel.
It's just that there was a little wind and waves, and Yang Su just made a move.
Then, Gao Ying made a move.
A family was found out, the army began to move, began to blockade the city, began to raid the house and destroy the door, the so-called anti-thieves were killed one after another, whether it was a thousand-year-old family, or the gate valve, under the attack of the Sui Dynasty army, it was like a snowflake, dissipated.
Kill, kill, kill!
Many men of the family were killed one after another, and the women were confiscated and entered the court as slaves.
When the family made a move, the thunder was very loud, but when it really came, it was very raindrops.
Three months later, Xiang Yu led the army, and when he returned to Luoyang, he could still feel the bloody rain.
"Your Majesty, there are homeless people in Shandong who rebel!"
"In Jiangnan, there are traitors who claim to be emperors!"
At this moment, Yang Su reported that there was a civil unrest in various places.
Behind these famous rebellions, there is the support of the family, who gives weapons and money, and encourages local thieves to rebel.
"Interesting, the turmoil in Luoyang has just subsided, and the local chaos has risen!" Xiang Yu said: "Notify the county guards in various places, kill the traitor, kill the main culprit, and exile the accomplice to Liaodong!" ”
The voice was cold and unforgiving.
The old land of Goryeo experienced war, and it was precisely the sparse population.
There, it belongs to a blank piece of paper, and there is no great family, and a large number of people who have no land and little land can be moved there.
It is black soil, the soil is fertile, although the summer is short, the heat is less, but it can still grow crops, but it is not suitable for the crops of the Central Plains, and it needs to be mainly cold grain.
At this moment, only immigrants and a large number of people entering the eastern Liaoning region can completely gain a firm foothold.
It can be seen that in the interior, some people who have no land and less land have migrated to Liaodong to relieve the local population pressure.
