Chapter 1050: The Chaos of Goguryeo

The plan to flood the Goguryeo reinforcements was formulated as early as the day when Li Chengqian and Dugu Qingyun met. Whether it was the place where the river crossed the upstream or the water marks of the Yalu River, they were all provided by Zhao Yifan.

There was no way, even if he didn't want to say it, under Ye Mei's various means, Zhao Yifan almost told me about the bedwetting when he was three years old.

"No, or not!" Just as Duan Zan showed a sudden expression, Cheng Chumo suddenly spoke, "Gao Ming, don't you want to launch an attack when the reinforcements of Goguryeo arrive and have not yet rolled the camp, right?"

"Yes, what's the problem?" Li Chengqian didn't know what would happen if he adopted the water attack plan for the first time, so what he needed most now was to hear all kinds of doubts so that he could better complete his plan.

"Of course there is a problem, and it's a big problem. Think about it, if we want to attract their attention, we must attack. What is the most likely thing for our attack? The Goguryeo people are fighting, right? But when they fight, you release floods on it, isn't we even flooded ourselves?"

Cheng Chumo said proudly, as if he had discovered some new continent, his eyes even had the expression of "I saved all of you."

"Oh, Siwen, tell him." I thought Cheng Chumo would say something constructive, but I didn't expect this guy to be afraid of being flooded. Li Chengqian suddenly lost interest. Looking at Li Siwen, whose face was red, tilted his head and asked him to explain to Xiao Cheng.

Li Siwen naturally would not let it go when he got the opportunity. He looked at Cheng Chumo with contempt and said, "Old Cheng, don't forget that we are going to take a boat. We happened to be on the boat when the flood was discharged, so only the Goguryeo people were flooded, not us."

"Ah?" Cheng Chumo was stunned for a moment. It was not until then that he realized that things seemed to be really like Li Siwen said. When they attacked, they really needed to take a boat, and there was no big problem with hundreds of warships of all sizes and big ones carrying 80,000 of them.

"Okay, go whatever you need. If you have time, check the equipment needed for the offensive. Don't get damp from the rockets, and check the gunpowder. Don't stop the Zhenguan Cannon from firing at that time." Seeing that the matter was explained clearly, Li Chengqian stopped talking nonsense to the playboys and sent them out directly.

As time passes little by little, the flow rate of Yalu water is getting slower and slower, but relatively speaking, due to the lack of rain and snow during this period, such water traces do not seem to attract Xing Ziqiu's attention.

After all, Xing Ziqiu is from the Army and has nothing to do with the navy. It is reasonable that he cannot grasp the water marks of Yalu Water.

As for why Zhao Yifan is also an army but knows the situation upstream of Yalu Water, this is because Zhao, the surname is a person near Yalu Water, so the situation in his hometown will naturally be unclear.

But just when Li Chengqian and Xing Ziqiulu were competing with each other across a river, Silla and Baekje, who were far behind Goguryeo, keenly discovered that something was wrong.

The number of soldiers patrolling the border of powerful enemy on this peninsula has dropped significantly, and the patrol time is also increasing. The teams that could have seen several patrol trips a day can now only be seen once a day, and sometimes they can only be seen once a day.

Thinking of the Eastern Expedition that the Tang Dynasty was launching, the two countries suddenly realized that their opportunity had come. Goguryeo seemed to be unable to withstand the Tang Dynasty's attack and began to mobilize troops from the border to defend their capital.

As the saying goes, the opportunity cannot be missed, and no more mistakes will come. Two countries that were bullied by Goguryeo and were about to fall into the sea had almost no discussion. At the same time, they launched an attack on Goguryeo's back.

Silla mobilized nearly 100,000 troops and headed north along the coastline. Baekje was also unwilling to be outdone. He mobilized an equal number of troops and launched an attack on the hinterland of Goguryeo along the coastline on the other side.

It was in chaos, and it was completely in chaos. The countries on the three islands almost fought in a mess in just three days. Goguryeo was dissatisfied with Silla and Baekje's behavior of taking advantage of the situation. She almost fought head-on with the armies of the two countries, regardless of the fact that they were empty inside.

Of course, Silla and Baekje are not soft persimmons. Faced with Goguryeo's desperate resistance, they also used their own strength to attack cities and camps without even caring about the casualties of their own troops.

The Tang Dynasty has come. If we don’t take advantage of the fact that Goguryeo’s troops are empty now, it is very likely that after the Tang Dynasty has come, we will not even leave some soup for them, and the territory that was occupied by Goguryeo before would not be returned to them.

It is precisely because of this calculation that the two countries are desperately attacking any inch of land they can grab. It is not just one or two things to do the city massacre, everything is to be able to occupy more territory.

Of course, when the two countries were busy attacking Goguryeo, they did not forget to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty to explain their behavior, and to forcefully refer to the act of seizing the country as responding to the call of the sect leader and jointly attacking injustice.

As for why they only started now and why they did not raise an army at the same time when Li Er raised the army, it was not important. They just wanted to find an excuse not to be blamed by the Tang Dynasty.

After all, it is very dangerous to snatch food from the mouth of the tiger of the Tang Dynasty. Who knows if the Tang army will be dissatisfied with it? They will destroy the two small countries together.

In this way, Silla and Baekje continued to attack, and sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty, and even sent an envoy to Liaodong, intending to contact Li Chengqian, who was attacking, so that his territorial snatching was recognized by Li Chengqian.

In the eyes of these two small countries, their actions were equivalent to restraining Goguryeo's troops and creating opportunities for Li Chengqian's attack. The prince of the Tang Dynasty would definitely use some land to exchange for an offensive advantage.

The disadvantages of the prince leading the army are too obvious. Needless to say, they are defeated. Even if there are many people who die in the war, it is very likely that Li Chengqian will face the risk of being impeached after returning to China.

Therefore, Silla and Baekje firmly believe that their behavior of grabbing territory will definitely be understood by Li Chengqian, and they will even help them explain to Chang'an.

However, the two countries that only care about grabbing territory did not expect that Li Chengqian was actually sure of victory against Goguryeo and did not need their help. Even if the plan to flood reinforcements failed, there was still an ambush on Tsuma Island, which would still play the same role as them.
