Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 305

Luo Cheng led his army to go northeast after passing under Tongding City.

A big river stood in front of him, but the Taotao River had already been frozen into ice, and it became a smooth road connecting the east and west.

Looking at the big river, the fourth child suddenly wanted to chant a poem.

"The wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the soldiers are gone..." Luo Cheng kicked him off the sleigh before he finished reciting the poem, which was unlucky.

But standing in front of this glacier, it really makes people feel a little small.

"What a big river." The fourth child got up from the snow and exclaimed, patting the snow on his body.

Looking at the glacier in front of him and the iron horse behind him, Luo Cheng couldn't help thinking of a poem.

"Lying down at night listening to the wind and rain, the iron horse Glacier came to a dream."

"Good poetry." Wei Laodao got off a sledge behind with his beard, and praised loudly. "Is there any more in the future?" He didn't expect that Luo Cheng, who was a young man and enemy of thousands, would actually be able to recite poems.Wei Zheng has read a lot of books and said he has read a lot of poems and books, but he has never heard this poem, but it sounds very domineering.

Luo Cheng thought for a while, but couldn't remember the second half of the sentence. Finally, he thought of the other two lines of the poem, and said casually, "But let the flying generals of Dragon City stay, and don't teach Huma to go to Yinshan Mountain."

Wei Zheng first thought of Luo Cheng's Longcheng Flying General wine, which costs a thousand dollars a bucket.But I was stunned for a while, and immediately realized that the word is more suitable here.The combination of the four sentences is very heroic and domineering.Reminiscent of Dragon City Flying General Wine, and listening to this poem again, Wei Zheng became more and more sure that these four lines of poems were written by Luo Cheng.

"Good poetry, good poetry."

"Fucking good poetry, we're carrying swords and putting our heads on our trouser belts to beg for life and earn military merits. We're not here for romance." Luo Cheng scolded with a smile to himself.

Chang Shi Hou Mo Chen Yi came over with a smile, "I think this poem is good. It is indeed a poem written by our vanguard general who is an enemy of thousands of people. It is full of swords and swords. It is a heroic sword that despises a million Hus. It is not those Jiangnan wide The chants of those moaning and moaning made by Pao Bo's well-dressed children."

Since the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the so-called palace style poems and erotic style poems have been the mainstream in poetry and fu. For example, Chen Houzhu is one of the masters. A poem he made is called Yushu Houtinghua, which is a typical example. Gorgeous, the sound of Mi Mi.Later, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty wrote a poem to satirize him, saying that a business woman does not know the hatred of subjugation, and she still sings flowers in the backyard across the river.

Hou Mo and Chen Yi didn't flatter Luo Cheng, but really thought the poem was good, and it was written with a strong character.

"Stop bragging about me. If you brag again, I'm really going to be smug, thinking that I'm a master of poetry, maybe I'll take off this battle armor and gown, and then go to Daxing to be a poet."

Fatty Qi smiled and flattered him, "General, you are not only a poetry fairy, but also a war saint. You are both poetry and war masters."

"Fart, stop talking nonsense, the big river is ahead, let's confirm the route again."

"Is there anything to confirm? Didn't the general already talk about the plan before, and our generals and schools all nodded in agreement. There is nothing to hesitate. Let's go straight to Xuantu City."

Xuantu City is the site of Xuanju County, one of the four counties of the Han Dynasty in history, but today's Xuantu City is not the original Xuanju County City, just like Xiangping City, which is currently being built, is not the original Han Dynasty city. Xiangping City is the same.

The Han Dynasty established the four counties of Liaodong, and Xuantu County was east of the Liao River, north of the peninsula, and north of the Yalu River.

Almost later, Liaoning belongs to Liaodong County, Jilin belongs to Xuantu, and the Korean Peninsula belongs to Lelang and Daifang.

The Xuantu County Government was originally located in Fuzu, that is, Xianxing in Later Korea, and later moved to Goguryeo County. Later, Xinbin, Liaoning, ruled Puyu, Goguryeo and other tribes.

Later, it was moved to the vicinity of Shenyang in later generations.

Later, the Goguryeo people continued to rise and gradually occupied the land east of the Liaohe River, and Xuanju County naturally ceased to exist.

The current Xuanju City is just to the west of Shenyang in later generations, only sixty miles away from the Liaohe River, and only eighty miles away from Tongding City.

Because it is located on the plain of the lower reaches of the Liaohe River, it can be said to be a small mountain city with relatively no dangers to defend.

Forty miles to the southeast of Xuantu City, there is Gaimu Mountain City, and a hundred miles to the northeast, there is a new city, the largest strategic node fortress of the Goguryeo people in this area.

Compared with Xuantu City, the new city is much larger. This is a city with a history of more than [-] years. Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it has experienced more than ten wars. The new city was built on Mount Gaoer in the northeast of Fushun. , consisting of three acropolises, the east city, the west city, the south acropolis, the north acropolis and the southeast corner, constitute an organic defense fortress of war. Coastal traffic arteries.

This fortress actually guards the main traffic route from the Liaohe Plain to Northeast Liaodong and the Korean Peninsula.

After all, the Liaohe Plain is flat, but to the east, there are undulating mountains, with only a few tunnels passing through them. The Goguryeo people relied on these mountains and built mountain cities at those tunnels.

Except for Liaodong City, which was a large flat city built on the plain, most of the other cities on the Liaodong defense line were mountain fortresses like Xincheng, with a total of more than two hundred.

If the Sui army wanted to go to Pyongyang, they had to pass through these cities by land.

Of course, the Sui army can also go around, but when they go around, they have to worry about these Goguryeo troops who are guarding against danger, and they may kill down the mountain at any time to intercept the transportation line of food and grass, and be careful of being blocked from retreating.

But if we really want to fight, each of these mountain cities is very dangerous, and there are so many of them, they are actually divided into several strategic defense clusters, which can support each other.Casualties must be high when attacking fortifications. If there are fewer soldiers, it will be impossible to fight. If there are too many soldiers, the logistical pressure will be great.The Goguryeo people made it clear that they wanted to pass through these defense groups, exchange space for time, and finally use small and large to resist the conquest of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Luo Cheng is not reckless.

He still has a relatively clear sense of the overall situation, especially since history has informed him of the strategies of the Sui and Tang dynasties to conquer Goguryeo, so he knows which method is more effective and which killer moves of the Goguryeo people are more powerful.

Not to mention that he only has 2000 people, even if it doubles or triples, Luo Cheng would not dare to attack Xincheng.

It is possible unless he has ten times as many soldiers and horses.

But Xuantu City, it can still be beaten by a dozen.

Xuantu is just a small city, although it is also built on the mountain, but after all, the mountain is low and the city is small, although there are mountain cities around, they are far away.

The nearest is Gaimu City, forty miles to the southeast.

"The snow is so heavy, the Goguryeo people probably didn't expect us to kill us at this time."

Luo Cheng looked at the sky, it was still early.

"Cross the river and rush to the city of Xuanju before dark."

After crossing the Liaohe River, we are only sixty miles away from Xuantu City. With sleds and sledges, we can still get there before dark.
