Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 1027 Goguryeo Invasion of Baekje

Hearing that the granary was going to be burned, Liu Mu immediately asked: "This is not in line with the original plan, is it appropriate?"

"This is war." Chai Shao stopped Liu Mu from continuing.

Everyone else understood that after Goguryeo invaded Baekje, they found that the granary in Baekje had been burned and all the treasures in the warehouse had disappeared.What they faced was the old, weak and hungry people in Baekje. At this time, Goguryeo's only choice was to distribute their military rations to the Baekje people.

This is a poisonous trick.

But it will kill many innocent people in Baekje.

Liu Mu couldn't bear it.

However, Chai Shao insisted that this was a war, and those who died were not people from Tang Dynasty, but people from Baekje. Baekje was originally an enemy of Datang.

Chai Shao said to Liu Mu: "Yuan Pure Land leads the army. When he is furious, he will definitely pursue him."

"Ok."

Willow had nothing to say.

At the border between Goguryeo and Baekje, the Goguryeo army is ready to move.

Yuan Pure Land convened all the generals to prepare for the pre-war meeting. What was hung in the central army account was not a battle map, but a data map of various industries in Baekje.

This chart is also a statistical chart taught by the Tang people to the small officials of Goguryeo.

"Porcelain vase, just such a small porcelain vase. Businessmen in Baekje are making more than 800 million pieces every year, and 800% of the raw materials are bought from our big Goguryeo, and half of the craftsmen also use various methods or It was the big Goguryeo people who bought or cheated. These more than 20 million porcelain vases can bring about [-] yuan of profit to the merchants of Baekje every year."

The generals of Goguryeo knew the data mentioned by Yuan Pure Land, but they did not have such details.

"It's just porcelain vases, and there are also plates, bowls, porcelain jars with teacups, etc. The income of a million Tang coins is pure income. What can a million Tang coins do?"

All the generals of Goguryeo had red eyes.

Yuan Jingtu continued: "There are also hemp ropes, hemp paper, and hemp mats. Especially the ore from the Maoshan Iron Mine in Koguryo is smelted into steel ingots in a small steel workshop in Baekje."

"Kill, kill all the Baekje merchants and get our coins back."

"Yes, kill all the Baekje merchants." Then Yuan Jingtu took out the map, the detailed rules of all the industries in Baekje and the deployment of various places.

At four o'clock in the morning, the entire Goguryeo barracks moved.

At this time, the Baekje frontier army was only defending tightly, but they didn't know why Goguryeo wanted to fight.

One knife leader lurking in the front line set up an antenna on the top of the tallest tree in a mountain forest, sent a telegram to the rear, and then all members began to retreat.

At five o'clock in the morning, before dawn, the Goguryeo army's attack on Baekje had already begun.

For several defensive points, Goguryeo invested a full 50 troops. This is all the troops of all the nobles in Goguryeo.

At the same time as the battle started on the front line, the Baekje King City was already in chaos.

Several Baekje generals who surrendered long ago took [-] elite soldiers in their hands to raid the Baekje Royal City, the homes of all the nobles in Baekje, and robbed all the wealth that could be robbed, and destroyed all that could not be robbed. Burn all the food.

In just four hours, the entire Baekje King City was in flames.

Yanzhou City.

Sitting in the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Jing kept hearing the reports from all parties.

Looking at the telegrams one by one, Li Jing said to the several staff generals beside him: "With such a fast transmission of military information, there is nothing left to fight in this battle."

"Marshal, Goguryeo has no defensive power at the moment, please ask the forward whether to play."

"Wait!" Li Jing issued a military order very calmly.

Chang'an City.

Li Shimin, who received the news of Goguryeo's dispatch of troops by telegram, held a grand sacrifice ceremony after dawn, and then personally led the troops to the expedition.

The Shence Guard Habayashi Army, this is an army that will basically not go to the battlefield until the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed.

The most ordinary soldiers of this legion can serve as the captain of a 50-man team, which is an army composed of older and outstanding grassroots officers.

If one day it is really necessary to fight to the death, the Habayashi Army can expand tenfold within a few days.

The Shence Guard Habayashi Army is the strongest foundation of the Datang Army, and also shoulders the duties of palace guards, Datang Emperor's travel guards and standard bearers. Their treatment is five times that of ordinary soldiers.

A regiment of 200 people, together with their horses, armaments, and ordnance, is divided into five carriages.

Right now, the capacity limit of Datang's twin locomotives is 32 fully loaded carriages.

The first military train goes out first, and the telegraph is in charge of communication on the road. The railway has a professional management team, which relies on the continuous communication of telegrams to determine the location of each train, and to contact each station and each class.

Li Shimin, Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was in the second rank.

Then six military trains were launched one by one. This is all the trains of Datang at present, and there are a few new locomotives, but there are not enough carriages.

Goguryeo Peninsula.

After Koguryo broke through the Baekje border defense line, before preparing to attack the largest male city in the north, it encountered a strong resistance.

"Report, encountered an ambush, the front army's attack was blocked, thousands of soldiers were killed and wounded, one general was killed in battle, and 19 generals were killed."

"What?" Yuan Pure Land never expected that he would encounter an ambush.

Yuan Pure Land immediately issued an order: "The order will go on, and the heavy armor battalion of the Chinese Army will send 1000 people to fight."

This heavy-armored battalion is a treasure in the hands of Yuan Jingtu. It spent a huge sum of money to purchase the equipment of the previous generation of Shence Guards in Datang, and armed more than 3000 people.

Yuan believes that this army can defeat [-] Baekje soldiers by a thousand people.

Li Shimin received the news when he arrived in Bingzhou by train.

"It seems that Konoe Zhongzhi did a good job. This ambush will make Yuan's frantic pursuit."

Changsun Wuji was sitting at the side sorting out all kinds of information, and drew the current strategic form on the map. After marking, Changsun Wuji said: "Sage, as long as the Goguryeo people pursue it, then the plan will be half successful."

"Will pursue."

Li Shimin's tone was very calm. He didn't care whether Goguryeo pursued him or not. What he wanted was to reduce the casualties of the entire Goguryeo Peninsula as much as possible, especially the casualties of the young and strong. The biggest shortage of the Tang Dynasty is not coins, but population.

Even slaves can supplement Datang's population.

When Li Shimin's special train arrived in Yanzhou, Li Jing came to meet him at the station.

"The plan is well done, and I'm very happy. I won't intervene in the war, and I'm just here to give an explanation to the people of Tang Dynasty."

"Yes, if something happens, I will die."

Li Jing heard what happened in Chang'an City, and also understood why Li Shimin, the emperor, wanted to give an explanation to the people.

The mountain of money didn't move at all, it was still piled up in front of Suzaku's gate.
