In the 18th year of Zhenguan, the two armies that the Tang Dynasty conquered Goguryeo were arranged as follows:

The first route was Zhang Liang, the Minister of Justice, as the chief marching officer of the Pyongyang Road, leading more than 40,000 troops and 500 warships from Jiang, Huai, Ling and Xia to cross the sea from Laizhou to Beisha City.

Beisha City is Dalian in later generations.

In the second line, he and the left guard led the general Li Shiji, leading 60,000 infantry and cavalrymen and the surrendered Hu soldiers in the two prefectures of Lan and He, and advanced to Liaodong.

In March of the 19th year of Zhenguan, Li Ji, as the vanguard of the Tang army, successfully arrived in Liucheng from Youzhou, which was later Chaoyang City, Liaoning. When Cao Cao conquered Wuhuan, the Wuhuan people were here.

It was also here that the first battle of the Tang Dynasty to conquer Goguryeo was started.

Ashinadao was obviously trying to study Taizong's military service in Goguryeo.

It happened to be bored during the march, so he followed Su Dawei, chatting while walking and boasting about his own experience.

His words attracted Su Qingjie and Heiqi Changzhi from the abortion, and gradually gathered around Su Dawei, forming an independent small circle.

Everyone followed the brigade and rode slowly, listening to Ashi's Taoist dynasty continue.

"Since ancient times, marching and fighting, logistics, food and food are the most important. Sun Tzu said in the Art of War that if you eat a cup of enemy, you should take twenty cups of me. From Chang'an to Liaodong, it is difficult to transfer the goods, and no less than 10% will be left.

Why did Emperor Yang of Sui lose the Sui Dynasty when he fought against Goguryeo in the past three times? Isn’t it just that the huge logistics has dragged the people?

There are hundreds of thousands of troops, and millions of people must transport grain in the rear, and I don’t know how many people will die along the way.”

After saying this, Su Qingjie first praised: "Daozhen, I didn't expect you to have this experience."

Su Dawei nodded and praised: "It's not bad, I'll see you with admiration for three days after leaving."

"That's natural!"

Ashin raised his chin, looked proud, and his nose was almost tilted to the sky.

His face was full of: praise me quickly, praise me quickly.

This kind of smugness.

Although Su Dawei's use of troops has been praised by a group of Tang generals such as Su Dingfang, he is really not very clear about the many battles in the founding of the Tang Dynasty, as well as the conquest of Goguryeo in Taizong's campaign.

Thinking of the next battle, we not only want to quell the restoration movement in Baekje, but also to destroy Goguryeo, but also to teach a lesson to the disobedient Silla.

The more you know about the situation on the peninsula, the better.

Thinking of this, he said to Ashina's truth: "Then tell me, how did Taizong solve the problem of transporting grain?"

"Oh, then I'll continue."

Ashin looked around and saw Su Qingjie, Hei Tooth Changzhi, and even Wang Xiaojie, who was behind the team, quietly rode up and leaned forward.

He felt more and more proud, and he felt complacent.

He coughed twice and then said, "I won't talk about transporting grain first, let's talk about how that battle was fought... After Li Ji led the vanguard to Liucheng, the first problem was that there was a Liaoze that was two hundred miles wide and one thousand miles long in front of him. There was also a Great Wall that was more than one thousand miles long behind Liaoze.

If you hit Huaiyuan from the front, the distance will be close. However, when the Tang army attacked the edge of the Great Wall of Goguryeo, the Goguryeo people only had to shoot arrows from the top and the Tang army would suffer heavy losses.

If you want to bypass Liaoze, you have to go north for another 400 miles to open up the Dharma.

But Tongding also had a large number of Goguryeo troops. If we could not attack, our army would inevitably have no food."

Su Dawei was so impressed that he probably made up for the terrain.

In order to march and fight, you must have a good sense of space and distance, including perception of the terrain and environment.

Without this, no matter how smart you are, you will not be able to become a famous general.

While thinking, he continued to ask: "How did Li Ji use his troops in the face of this situation?"

"The British Duke still has a way. He made a big announcement in LiaoJesi and promoted everywhere that he wanted to cross Liaoze to attack Huaiyuan Town. The Goguryeo army believed it and hurriedly transferred the troops on both sides of the north and south to Huaiyuan through the Great Wall.

Next, Li Ji's troops were divided into two groups, leading himself, marched 400 miles quickly, and unexpectedly attacked and opened Dingcheng.

Along the way, Zhang Jian led the Hu soldiers to rush south for 400 miles, crossed Liaoze, and directly attacked Jian'an City.

So both sides won.

On April 1st, he took Tongding and forced his way to Liaodong, and directly killed Xuantu."

Su Dawei nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and the generals were also amazed.

Everyone knows the trick of "Speaking East and Fighting West", but few of them can really use it incredible.

The first thing is how to make the enemy believe that you are real.

Even my own people have to believe that they want to attack that place.

Secondly, it is to quickly break the exposed flaws of the enemy before the enemy can react.

You must also be careful if the enemy is smart and ambush yourself.

This involves extremely high intelligence and psychological movements.

Non-famous generals cannot do it.

Su Dawei silently matched the place name with the place in his mind.

Jian'an City is Yingkou, Liaoning in later generations.

As for Xuantu, it was Shenyang in later generations.

By seizing these two key nodes, the Tang military has a forward base and a strategic support for subsequent implementation.

Chenyang was in the Tang Dynasty, Xuantu was also a big city.

There must be food in the city.

This solved the food crisis of the Tang army.

You can also use the big city as a food transport point.

Li Ji is worthy of being Li Ji.

With this battle alone, he deserves the reputation of a famous general.

Moreover, this move directly broke through the Great Wall built by Goguryeo for huge sums of money, making this powerful artificial natural danger originally a fortress that despaired the Tang army and became a useless rib like the Maginot Line.

"Win this battle, our army was in a state of great power and conquered many cities in Goguryeo. In April, Li Ji and Li Daozong successfully captured Gaimu City, capturing more than 20,000 people and more than 100,000 stones of food.

In May, Zhang Liang led the navy to cross the sea from Laizhou, attacked Beisha City at night, and captured 8,000 people.

In May, Emperor Taizong led a subsequent army to Liaoze, and ordered the general Yan Lide to build a large-scale construction day and night. When he encountered the marsh, he built a bridge when he encountered the water. In just five days, tens of thousands of troops crossed the swamp land.

"Wait, who is Yan Lide?"

"It's Yan Liben's brother."

"Oh, I said it sounds so familiar. It turns out that he is in charge of the engineers."

"Working...What kind of engineering soldiers?"

"Well, don't care about these things. If you continue talking, how did Taizong use troops next?"

Su Dawei coughed lightly, swept his eyes around, and the carriages were still rumbling forward with the crowd.

There are more and more people around me, including Black Tooth Changzhi, An Wensheng, Wang Xiaojie, and Lou Shide.

Even the commander Xue Shaoyi didn't know when he would come over quietly.

Seeing Su Dawei looking at him, Xue Shaoyi smiled at him, nodded slightly, pointed to Ashi's Taoist, and then pointed to his ears.

Su Dawei nodded.

The men in the army are all studious people.

When they mentioned military use and war, they all became fascinated by them.

Let the horse continue to move forward with the team, listening to Ashina Daozhen continue: "After passing through Liaoze, Emperor Taizong decided to fight against the enemy to show his determination to win.

Therefore, the bridge crossing the river was demolished, and the army and Li Ji's vanguards were led to advance to Liaodong City one north and one west.

You must know that in the past, Emperor Yang of Sui conquered Goguryeo three times, and none of the millions of troops took over the Liaodong city.”

"What's behind? How is the back? How does Goguryeo react?"

Wang Xiaojie couldn't help but interrupt.

"The Tang Dynasty's 60,000 troops were divided into two groups and rushed towards Liaodong City. Goguryeo also sent about 40,000 infantry and cavalry to urgently rush to Liaodong.

Next, Li Ji and Li Daozong's vanguard met these enemy troops outside the Liaodong city.

At that time, the vanguards were less than 10,000, and they had marched for more than 3,000 miles and had been fighting continuously for more than a month.

Many soldiers suggested sticking to it and make plans when Taizong’s main force comes.”

When Su Dawei heard this, he finally couldn't help but shake his head and said, "If you don't dare to fight at this time, the army will lose its vigor."

Ashina looked at him strangely: "Ami made the point. At that time, Rencheng King Li Daozong refused to stick to it. In his opinion, although there were many enemies, they also came from afar. The brave ones won when they met on a narrow road, especially as a vanguard, they could not retreat and avoid war, which weakened the courage of the Tang Dynasty."

"Okay, what a Li Daozong!"

Su Dawei rode the dragon son and couldn't help but praise him.

He vaguely remembered that in the fourth year of Yonghui, Li Daozong was involved in Fang Yiai's rebellion case, was exiled to Xiangzhou, and died of illness on the way.

In my heart, I couldn't help but say a pity for this famous general who was born in Li Tang.

Just as Xue Wanche shouted before his death: Wanche is a great athlete, and he wishes he could die on the battlefield.

For soldiers, the best way to return is to wrap a horse and a corpse.

"Daozhen, let's continue to say that I don't know much about this matter, so continue."

Su Qingjie urged him aside.

Ashi Naduo cleared his throat and continued: "Li Ji listened to Li Daozong's words, praised his courage, and gave Li Daozong four thousand cavalry to block the more than 40,000 Goguryeo army."

Four thousand, versus forty thousand.

In other words, the Tang army must use one to block ten in this battle.

"After encountering the enemy, Li Daozong's commander Guoyi, Ma Wen, took the initiative to fight and said sternly, "If you don't encounter the enemy, why do you show your strength? Lead a group of people to launch an assault on the enemy ten times that of yourselves."

Ma Wenju's courage greatly increased the morale of the Tang army, and they all fought forward bravely.

Dance and dance, chopping people when you see them, invincible."

Black-toothed Chang's Way: "It shouldn't be so easy to win, right? The Goguryeo people's combat power is not that weak."

"You said it was right. After experiencing the initial panic, the Goguryeo Army quickly organized a counterattack. After the fierce battle, the difference in strength was too great. The Tang army gradually lost its support. What was even more dangerous was that the marching chief Zhang Junyi was beaten back and forth, and had no power to fight back."

Ashina Zhen's words raised the hearts of all the young generals present.

Although, they knew that it was a battle more than ten years ago, and that the Tang Dynasty would not lose.

But in my heart, I felt a little anxious.

Su Qingjie urged: "Don't keep it a secret, what happened later?"

"The Tang army camp began to scatter, and many soldiers also began to flee in scattered areas."

When everyone said this, everyone was anxious.

Su Qingjie's face turned dark.

Wang Xiaojie's face turned red.

Su Dawei thought to himself: The soldiers fled, this is a sign of defeat. Can I still win like this? If I were Li Daozong, how should I turn the tide at that time?

If the Tang army vanguard loses, the Tang army's strength will not only greatly damage the Tang army's strength, but also cause a fatal blow to morale, and may even affect the success or failure of subsequent battles.

The battle situation between the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo touched the whole body.

You can't retreat even if you take a step.

He heard Ashi's true words: "Li Daozong, who was in the rear at that time, was furious. He called the dozens of horses who retreated and took them to a nearby hill and high ground to observe, and finally discovered the flaws in the Goguryeo army.

It turned out that the Goguryeo army was only concerned about pursuing, and its formation began to scatter.

So Li Daozong led these dozens of cavalry and rushed towards the enemy's most enemy place.

They rushed and chopped, as if they were entering a no-man.

Li Ji, who was behind the battlefield, was also furious when he saw the Tang army retreating.

He did not care about his safety as the commander of the three armies, and with the remaining final reserves, he rushed up together and killed desperately.

The battle ended in this respect, the head coach and the deputy coach all rushed to the front line to fight..."

Asano Zhen said this, stopped and breathed for a moment.

As a result, everyone glared at me.

"Speak on, don't stop here!"

"Can you breathe again after you finish speaking!"
Chapter completed!
