Emperor Yang of Sui was extremely tired of Goguryeo and had long wanted to fight, but there was no best excuse. This time, he had to carry it to the court meeting openly.

Goguryeo is still entrenched in the northeast area, and was first seen in the "Book of Han". It appeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period. It was in wartime and harmony with the Central Plains regime. Because it is located in the heart of the Central Plains, the Central Plains court never completely eliminated this country.

After the Five Barbarians of the Eastern Jin Dynasty invaded China, Goguryeo took advantage of the melee of the Central Plains to continuously invade Youzhou, and there were wars with the later Northern Qi and Northern Zhou.

Even after the establishment of the Great Sui Dynasty, it had several invasions, but its strength was not enough to invade the Central Plains. Every time it failed, it caused certain hidden dangers to the border.

"Niu Pushe, you are knowledgeable. Let me tell you about the origin of Goguryeo and the forms of government affairs to all the ministers, so that you can know what you think."

Pushe Niu Hong stood up, over 60 years old, at the age of 63 and 64, stood up from the civil ministers, first bowed to Emperor Yang of Sui with his hands and bowed to the civil and military ministers, and then turned around and looked around the civil and military ministers, and spoke: "The word [Goguryeo] first appeared during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, and was later recorded in the Book of Han, but it was only a geographical word, not a country. According to the "Three Kingdoms", in the late Western Han Dynasty, Prince Fuyu ** of the Fuyu Kingdom fled to the southeast because of his disagreement with other princes and established Goguryeo; the early days of its establishment may have been composed of the gang people and some Fuyu people who moved to this area."

"Later, Goguryeo rose, expanded its territory, gradually annexed Fuyu, swallowed Liaodong to the west, occupied part of the Korean Peninsula to the east, and fought against the Han Dynasty, and a war broke out. The victory of the Han army made Goguryeo forced to move its capital east to Marudu. After the fall of the Western Han Dynasty, the Cao Wei court also fought with Goguryeo and won, regaining Liaodong, and Goguryeo King Dongchuan fled to Woju."

"However, after Cao Wei destroyed Maruto, he thought Goguryeo had perished, so he did not continue to pursue and quickly withdrew his troops. Just a few decades, Goguryeo rebuilt Maruto and began to attack Liaodong, Lelang and other counties to expand and grow, and to establish the three-legged Baekje and Silla established by the indigenous people of the Korean Peninsula."

"In the ninth year of Kaihuang, our Great Sui unified the north and south, demanding that the surrounding states be dependent on the vassal states, and it was recognized by most countries. Only Goguryeo disobeyed this and did not agree with it. It was not even sent troops to disturb the northeastern border of our Great Sui. In the 18th year of Kaihuang, Goguryeo actually led people to attack western Liaoning, leading to the first battle between the two countries. However, when the late emperor was preparing to raise heavy troops to punish, the King of Goguryeo did not hurriedly apologize and claimed to be "the 'Liaodong Dudi Minister Yuan', so he was pardoned. However, in recent years, Goguryeo still connected the anti-Sui forces everywhere, the remnants of the Northern Qi tribes, the Turks, Khitans, Shiwei, and Mohe and other nomadic tribes secretly had contacts with Goguryeo, which was a major problem with the northeastern border of our Great Sui!"

After hearing this, the civil and military officials in the court had different expressions and nodded frequently. In this way, Goguryeo was indeed a disaster in the northern part of the Great Sui Dynasty.

However, the matter of raising troops is related to the fundamentals of the country. If you can not move troops, it is best not to move on a large scale. Otherwise, no matter how strong the national strength is, it will not be able to support it. At the peak of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of Han shouted the powerful slogan "Those who offend our Han Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away." He continued to fight and was quite stanced to redeem the military!

Although the Western Han army defeated many foreign countries and rectified border troubles, the Western Han Dynasty fought for years, consumed too much national strength and killed millions of strong men in battle. From then on, the Han Dynasty declined from prosperity. In his later years, Emperor Wu of Han also realized his achievements and losses, and advised his descendants not to easily move troops, and the rise and fall of the country!

Therefore, when fighting a national war, you must consider the gains and losses and carefully analyze it. Not only can you win a war, but also see how large the scale of the war is, whether it is necessary, how the way of fighting is, etc.

Military generals in the court, such as Zhou Fashang, Yang Yichen, Guo Yan, Yu Zhongwen, Fan Zigai, Mai Tiezhang, Yu Juluo, and others, heard that there was a war between the generals and it was the turn of the generals to step forward, so they were naturally ready to go and secretly looked forward.

However, some civil officials felt that the Tuyuhun had just finished pacifying Tuyuhun, digging canals, building the Great Wall, etc., and the pace was too fast, which was not conducive to the stability of the Great Sui Dynasty.

For example, Xin Gongyi, the Minister of the Inner History, was upright and upright. He had investigated and dealt with the confidants of King Yang Hung of Yuzhang, but did not give Yang Hung any face, so he was hated by the latter, but he didn't care.

Xin Gongyi stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Goguryeo is located outside the remote Liaodong. You must use troops to mobilize the Central Plains army. The number of troops, food and grass transportation, combat consumption is extremely large. Goguryeo is different from Tuyuhun. It has been operating there for hundreds of years and is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is a vast sea and a natural barrier to the east. Therefore, when using troops to Goguryeo, I think you should think twice before you act, and be extremely cautious!"

"Hmph, a small and small land needs to be extremely cautious? Compared with the territory and population of the Great Sui Dynasty, it is less than one-tenth, so why fear it? Tuyuhun is located in a plateau, a bitter and cold place, and nomadic tribes can even be wiped out by our army, let alone a small peninsula? Xin Gongyi, your words are too conservative."

"Your Majesty, the ancients said, "Soldier..."

"Okay, I don't want to listen to the nonsense of the ancients. The times are different and the national strength is different. I can do all the things that the ancients cannot do, so why should I listen to their words?"

Xin Gongyi was blocked and his face turned red. Some were angry and anxious. Just as he was about to refute, Emperor Yang of Sui waved his hand and scolded him: "Get back, I don't want to listen to advice anymore. However, you all don't need to filter. My decision is definitely not to be impulsive and will make careful plans and not fight a battle without confidence. Besides, I have a lot of talents in the Sui Dynasty, with strong soldiers and strong horses, and are invincible. If you fight a small country, you will surely succeed!"

Luo Zhaoyun stood in the second row of the military ministers, with a prominent position, but he didn't want to say anything, because no matter how he persuaded him, he could not change the decision of Emperor Yang of Sui. He did not have that influence. If he stood up and refuted Emperor Yang of Sui, he believed that attacking Goguryeo would cause the Sui country to be destroyed. He probably would be attacked by some political enemies in the next moment, and then he was sentenced to death by Yang Guang.

This battle may be destined by history and is inevitable!

—————

[ps: Finally, I am going to write about Goguryeo. This country is by no means a Romance or folk novel. The Goryeo Bangzi, which is called by the people of later generations, actually has nothing to do with it except that it is close to the name of Gori. The people of Goguryeo are not Koreans, nor Koreans in later generations. It is composed of nomads and local ethnic minorities in Jilin, Northeast China. It was only later that this country attacked the Korean Peninsula and absorbed a few Koreans in it. But Goguryeo is called from the original source, not North Korea, the ancestors and old ancient countries of South Korea, but the establishment of ethnic minorities on my Greater China land. It is fundamentally still an ancient country in Chinese culture. It is by no means what Korean history experts say, but an old ancient country in Korea.

In the Chinese historical circle, the latest research conclusion is that Goguryeo and Goryeo are by no means the same thing, nor Korean culture, because Goguryeo used Chinese characters very early, and worship was also Nuwa culture. It was not the Goryeo that passed after the Tang Dynasty, when ancient Korean countries came to the Central Plains to learn the spread of Han culture. (The real Goryeo was the Goryeo dynasty in the Yuan Dynasty!)

Therefore, the Goguryeo people are not Goryeo Rods. Please all those who see the power of the country can know this historical knowledge point! Although many Sui and Tang novels are confused, they still hope to express this knowledge point. Because when we despise it as Goryeo Rods, we also acknowledge that it belongs to the ancient Korean culture, which is inappropriate.] (To be continued.)
