In the second year of Kaiyuan in the Great Qin Dynasty, spring.

The right governor of Andong Road, the prefect of Daofang County, the right Shenji Army envoy, and the British Duke Xu Shiji led the newly built Right Shenji Army to Daofang County to take office.

This army drew officers from the left and right Shence troops in Liaoning and Andong as backbone, and also drew from the Han people who immigrated outside the pass to form an army of 24,000 people.

The deputy generals include Cheng Mingzhen, Fei Qingnu, Wang Bodang, Xu Yuanlang, etc. Except Cheng Mingzhen is an old brother of Zhongwu Army, Fei Wang and Xu and the other three were all supported by the former Wang Shichong and Li Mi after the end of the Central Plains War. The emperor was very kind to these surrendered generals and did not pursue what they had done in the past. Instead, he did not blame him for his past and was granted official positions according to his talents.

The army completed the assembly after the New Year, and then carried a lot of supplies, food and grass all the way south.

It was cold early spring and I encountered many Goguryeo rebels along the way, but under the command of Xu Shiji, the army still reached its goal as planned.

Seoul.

This place was a long time ago, and it was the territory of the small indigenous country of Zhenfan on the peninsula. It was south of Lelang County of Han, to the west was the small indigenous country of Zhenfan, to the east was the small indigenous country of Lintun, and to the south were the three indigenous peoples of Mahan, Chenhan, and Mouhan.

Later, the Han Dynasty destroyed the two small countries of Zhenfan and Lintun and established the two counties of Zhenfan and Lintun. The indigenous people on the peninsula were left with the southernmost Sanhan tribe, which was compressed into the southern coastal area and survived.

Now, after the imperial court destroyed Goguryeo, Xuantu County, west of the Yalu River, it divided Andong Road outside the pass into two, Liaoning Road was set to the west of the Yalu River, and Andong Road east of the Yalu River, including the Korean Peninsula.

There are only two counties in Andong Road, namely Lelang County and Daofang County.

Song Laosheng was the commander-in-chief of the Lelang Prefect, stationed in Pyongyang and commanded the left Shenji Army. Xu Shiji was the commander-in-chief of the right Shenji Army, led the prefect of the Fang Prefect, stationed in Seoul.

Seoul was originally called Zhenfan. This time the emperor gave the new name Seoul, which was the city of Daofang County.

For the soldiers of the Zuo Shenji Army who have just arrived in Seoul, this name is much more pleasant than Zhenfan. In the future, the soldiers of the Han people will take root here, bring their families, and the court will also move more Han immigrants.

After Xu Shiji entered the city, he had a quick and careful handover with the troops that Song Laosheng had guarded.

The commander named Hu told him that the situation here was not optimistic. Now the official army only has some cities in their hands, and a large number of fortresses and villages are still in the hands of the rebels.

Because the situation in the Dianfang is far away from Liaodong, the situation is more complicated now.

"Now not only are there many Goguryeo people doing chaos, but also Baekje and Silla have also gone north to try to take advantage of the situation and seize territory."

Xu Shiji knew that there are only two countries in the south of Baekje and Silla, and the two countries are countries established by the Three Koreans. Among them, Baekje is a special one. His main country is the Chen Han people, but the royal family is the nobles who went south from Fuyu Kingdom. The situation is similar to Tuyuhun. The Khan King and the senior nobles are the Tuyuhun tribes of the Xianbei Murong clan, while the main body is the Qiang Di tribe.

In the past, there were many indigenous tribes on the peninsula.

However, when Jizi crossed east to establish Korea, Weiman usurped Jizi Korea, then entered the Han Dynasty to enter the peninsula, established four counties of Han, and then the Fuyu people in the north established Goguryeo, expanding all the way to the central part of the peninsula, heading southward, causing the indigenous people in the northern and central part of the peninsula to be basically exterminated or integrated, leaving only the Sanhan in a corner of the south.

Until now, the three Koreans are only left with Baekje and Silla, and their strength is pretty good.

Previously, Goguryeo and them had been fighting each other for hundreds of years, and the Three Kingdoms attacked each other. Baekje and Silla were always under pressure and lost a lot of territory.

Now that Goguryeo has lost its country, the two countries want to take the opportunity to regain their old land. Although most of these old lands were robbed by Jizi, Wei, and Han dynasties in the past when they withdrew.

"When my Great Qin was founded, both Baekje and Silla sent envoys to congratulate me and submitted a letter to submit my Great Qin as the official title. The year name used now is also the Kaiyuan year name of the Great Qin, but now I am doing such a sneaky thing. Is it really a matter of my Great Qin whip?"

"These people are always arrogant. They only see the opportunity in front of them, but how can they see such a faraway place?"

The commander told Xu Shiji that the situation here is very complicated now.

"Now, the Goguryeo people are divided into two major forces. One is the former Goguryeo nobles. They try to restore the Goguryeo Kingdom, and the other is the old subordinates of Taizuo Yuan. They are under the banner of Fuyuan's North Korea, and in fact they just want to take advantage of the chaos to seize territory and separatist power."

The Goguryeo people on both sides hated the Qin army, but at the same time they were incompatible with each other.

After several wars, the west side of the Daofang County, which was the former Zhenfan Kingdom, was mainly dominated by the former generals of the Yuan clan. They supported the Yuan boys to restore the Joseon Dynasty, while the old Goguryeo aristocrats in Lintun, on the east side, took the banner of restoring the Goguryeo Kingdom, and owned a Gao clan and established the Goguryeo Dynasty.

"The two sides have attracted support from behind. North Korea in the west leads Silla in the southeast to attack Goguryeo, while the back Goguryeo in the east leads Baekje in the southwest to assist. The attack on North Korea in the southwest is also in chaos. Baekje and Silla have also taken the opportunity to go north to seize territory and population."

Xu Shiji listened and just smiled, "I will not even think that the land on the Korean Peninsula is too much, and I will not give up inch. Now, as the right commander of Andong Road, I am also the prefect of Fangjun and stationed in Seoul, so no one can take away any land from me."

"Please go back and tell Governor Song that since I, Xu Shiji, have come, I will wipe out the unofficial officials here and make them all my great Qin ministers."

Xu Shiji ordered that the newly-attached Seoul and several surrounding castles should be used as base camps to send light cavalry to explore the terrain on all sides, inquire about the enemy's traces, and prepare to sweep the surroundings with the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves and restore the rule of the Qin Dynasty.

At the same time, he sent two more troops to join the army, each leading a team to the capitals of Baekje and Silla, and brought his orders to King Baekje and Silla.

"Silla, Baekje is a vassal of our Great Qin. Now the sect leader, the Great Qin Kingdom, is now the Great Qin Kingdom, to fight against the rebels. The two countries must not have one soldier and one soldier crossing the border into the territory of the Great Qin Daqin County, nor are they allowed to take in Goguryeo's rebellious soldiers and one soldier. The deadline is within two months before, and the robbery will be completely withdrawn from the Daqin County and return the population of the Daqin County that is contained. Otherwise, don't say that you are not prepared!"

The peninsula is further north.

Between the Baishan and Black Water, the prefect of Sumo County suddenly mobilized the people of the Sumo Water tribes. His memorial to invite the war to the court had already been sent to Beijing through the newly built post road.

As long as the emperor gave his order, he would personally lead all the elites in his county to go south to participate in the quelling of the rebellion, so as to prove his infinite loyalty to the Qin Emperor and the Emperor.

The left commander of Andongdao, Lelang Prefect and Leshenji Army envoy Song Laosheng, has ordered the entire Leshenji Army to enter a first-level combat readiness state, and has moved the counties below to speed up the transportation of food, grass and supplies.

At the same time, the tribes of Baishan Mushi, northeastern, also sent an order to summon the tribe's children and prepare to join the North Korea to fight against the rebellion.

And in Liaodong.
