Guo Jia, the ghost of the strongest military division

Chapter 1089 Attacking Three Passes
In [-] AD, Guo Jia mobilized [-] troops in parallel by land and water, which opened the prelude to the attack on Liaodong.

This time, Gongsun Du smelled the end.

He always thought that Liaodong was desolate, and Guo Jia would not care about it at all. In addition, he has deliberately kept a low profile these years, and he will contribute a lot of tributes every year, trying to make Guo Jia forget about Liaodong.

However, what should come will come after all.

Gongsun Du immediately assembled his troops and began to resist.

Over the years, he occupied four counties and recruited [-] to [-] troops.Even if Guo called, he still had the strength to fight.

Not only that, Gongsundu also married the daughter of Goguryeo King Gao Yiimo as his wife, and the two sides established a friendly relationship.

Goguryeo is an ancient ethnic regime in Northeast China. It was built in 36 BC by Ju Mong, a Buyeo native.

It existed for hundreds of years, and it was not completely destroyed until the Tang Dynasty.

All I have to say is that Goguryeo and Goryeo are not the same concept at all. Goguryeo is a nomadic people with strong fighting power and a lot of Jurchen style.

Then came Goryeo, which was established by the aborigines of the Korean peninsula. Unlike Goguryeo, they were very weak, recognized the rule of the central government, paid a large amount of property every year, and prayed for the forgiveness of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Goguryeo established its capital at Jianwancheng, its king was Gao Yiyimo, and it had tens of thousands of cavalry. It belonged to a relatively powerful small country on the border of the Han Dynasty.

Hearing that Guo Jia led an army to attack his son-in-law Gongsundu, Gao Yiyimo immediately sent [-] cavalry to Liaodong County to cooperate with Gongsundu to close the city.

With the [-] Goguryeo troops raised, Gongsun Du felt relieved.

After all, in this era, the cavalry is the most important force on the battlefield. The Goguryeo cavalry is brave and good at fighting, especially fine and cavalry. They are all famous archers.

……

"Subordinates Tian Feng, Tian Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, greet the lord!"

After arriving in western Liaoning, the officials and generals who stayed behind in Youzhou came to Guo Jia one after another.

Everyone please rise up!

Guo Jia hastily helped everyone up.

He hasn't been to Youzhou for a long time.

"Big Brother, Second Brother, I miss my younger brother."

Seeing Dian Wei and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei ran out excitedly.

Third brother!

Dianwei Guan Yu also hugged Zhang Fei.

The brothers haven't seen each other for a long time.

"By the way, big brother, I heard that this time, the lord asked you to be the vanguard?"

Zhang Fei asked puzzledly.

Usually this task belongs to the fourth brother Zhao Yun.

Ha ha!

Guan Yu smiled slightly and said, "The fourth brother is now the commander of the cavalry in Yunzhou, commanding the entire cavalry. How can you kill a chicken with a sledgehammer? He doesn't need to go out for such a trivial matter."

For this errand, he is still very satisfied.

That's it!

Zhang Fei nodded, he suddenly remembered something, he laughed and said, "Second Brother, I'm really bored in Youzhou, why don't we brothers change. You come to defend Youzhou, and I'll attack that old boy Gongsundu? "

what?
Hearing this, Guan Yu shook his head hastily, blushing all the time.

"No, no, this is the lord's arrangement, how can you snatch your brother's task?"

He has been living in Yunzhou for more than half a year, and he has long been bored.

It's so easy to catch an opportunity to go out, how can you give up so easily?
Just change it!
Zhang Fei begged.

No!

Guan Yu kept his face.

The wife can be changed, but the task cannot be changed.

Not even brothers.

Zhang Fei had no choice but to beg Guo Jia.

……

"In the past few years, Gongsun Du has built Liaodong County like an iron barrel. He occupied Yiwulu Mountain, established a checkpoint, and controlled the passage between Liaodong and Liaoxi. The checkpoint is condescending and easy to defend. It is difficult to defeat it. "

Tian Feng pointed to the map and said.

The reason why they did not attack Liaodong in these years was that Guo Jia did not instruct them, and the most important thing was that Gongsundu took the lead and built three checkpoints at Tengyun, Mengchong and Luoshui on Yiwulu Mountain between Liaodong and Liaoxi.

Each checkpoint is like a throat, firmly hijacking the road to Liaodong. If you want to attack Liaodong, you must win these three checkpoints.

Tengyun is in the south, Mengchong is in the north, and Luoshui is built by collecting water, cutting off the only two-day river connecting Liaodong and Liaoxi.

Just looking at the construction locations of the three checkpoints, you can know that this Gongsun Du has a plan for a long time, and he has long had the idea of ​​​​separating Liaodong for autonomy.

Three checkpoints?
Guo Jia was silent.

It's a pity that these three checkpoints are located inland, and the red-coated cannons of Guo Jia's ship can't reach them. Otherwise, several rounds of bombardment would smash this civil engineering project to pieces.

Artillery was also brought in this time, but they mainly threw crock bombs, and their damage was limited, so they couldn't do anything about these tough official tasks.

It seems that the offensive can only be launched after the subsequent delivery of large projectile artillery vehicles.

Before that, it's better not to act rashly.

Lord!

Tian Yu on the side suddenly cupped his fists and said, "This subordinate knows a small path that can bypass three checkpoints."

Is there such a good thing?

Hearing this, Tian Feng was also very surprised.

but……

Tian Yu hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice: "The mountain is so steep that a large army can't do it. We can only choose some excellent soldiers who are not elite soldiers. After entering the mountain, first lie in wait, and when the army attacks the checkpoint, suddenly break out and come out." Only by cooperating with the inside and the outside can we win the level by surprise."

Not bad!

Tian Feng also nodded.

Before Guo Jia came, they had already discussed it and thought it was a method.

Makes sense!
Guo Jia nodded.

This time, the troops he brought were all the elites of the imperial guards, and it would be no problem to select some elites to enter the mountain.

The question is, which level do they hit first.

The Tengyun Pass has a steep terrain and is heavily guarded. It is the main passage in the east and west of Liaodong.

The scale of Mengchong is a bit smaller, and the guards are not so strict, but the road is rugged and not suitable for large troops.

As for Luoshui, it needs the cooperation of the navy. Unfortunately, the river here is too submerged for sea ships to pass, so they can only use small boats to attack the water village.

Guo Jia pondered for a while, then suddenly slapped the table and said, "Let's attack in an all-out way."

Now that the fight is on, let's play with momentum.

"Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, each of you will lead an army to attack Tengyunzhai, and Zhang Liao Tai Shici, you will lead the other army and horses to attack Mengchong Pass. Huang Zhong and Ju Yi, you choose a team of warriors who are familiar with fighting in the mountains and forests. A strange army, ready to enter the mountain."

Guo Jia immediately ordered.

promise!
Hearing Guo Jia's arrangement, Zhang Fei also had no objection.

Everyone has a job, so naturally they won't fight for it.

"My lord, what about us?"

The brothers Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin also stepped forward.

They are also gearing up.

you……

Guo Jia smiled slightly, and said: "Lead the soldiers and horses of this county, build small boats, and pretend to attack the Luoshui Water Village."

There is a saying in the art of war that what is real is empty, and what is empty is real.

The combat effectiveness of the local county soldiers is naturally inferior to Guo Jia's imperial guards, but they can also do things to harass the enemy.
