Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 240 On the eve of the war, the Tang Dynasty takes action
Since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, it has pacified the Turks and eliminated all obstacles that hindered the development of the dynasty, developed foreign trade, and attracted all nations to come to the dynasty.

Nowadays, many countries in the grassland are more or less vassal states of the Tang Dynasty. This is the most prosperous era in history, and it is also an era of complex national and cultural blends.

Any country that touches the development of the dynasty is not only the enemy of the Tang Dynasty, but even the enemy of the entire world.

When they learned that Li Shimin was going to send troops to conquer Goryeo at the end of the month, all the major vassal states wrote letters asking for war.

Before the end of the month, more than 20 troops from more than 21 countries had formed to conquer Goryeo!
He even said that as long as Li Shimin wanted, he could summon more troops.

But now Datang's finances are tight and cannot afford so much food and armaments, so it summoned these 20 troops.

Now the third uncle of the Ministry of War, Hou Junji, has led [-] Tang troops and is stationed in Liaodong to prevent Goryeo from continuing to invade Shandong, Hebei and other places.

Then the armies of the major vassal states were deployed and moved towards Liaodong, as if overwhelming.

In the Hall of Wude, Li Shimin and General Yitong were discussing the battle plan against Goryeo.

"Now the Koryo Kingdom has invaded the Liaodong Plain. According to reports from the Liaodong defenders, Eulji Mundeok has 20 well-equipped Koryo troops under his command, and the rebel general Guo Yong has 5 troops. Moreover, they occupy major passes and are difficult to capture directly. "

"The Wu Kingdom has evil intentions and must be on guard. However, the policy proposed by the Japanese envoys is not indispensable. They will land on the Goryeo mainland from the coast of Shandong and directly carry out local operations, and let Siam and Baekje cooperate."

Changsun Wuji frowned: "Now we know that the Japanese people have evil intentions and will definitely intervene during the war. Why do they still want to land like this?"

Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly: "Zuopushe, there are some things you still don't understand. From here, we can directly outflank Gao Liguo's rear. Moreover, the Tang army and the Siamese and Baekje armies can also protect their territory to prevent the Japanese." Human invasion.”

Li Shimin nodded immediately after hearing this.

"That's very good. In that case, I will send you as the local marching general of Goryeo, and launch an attack on Goryeo from behind at the right time."

Cheng Yaojin frowned: "But compare to a certain family that has no experience in maritime combat."

"It's not like we're really asking you to fight from the sea, we're asking you to fight on our own soil!"

"Soldiers marching on the sea are bound to be acclimatized and their combat effectiveness will be reduced. If Gao Liguo takes this opportunity to launch an attack, wouldn't it cause big trouble?"

After everyone heard this, they thought for a moment again.

Fang Xuanling said calmly: "It is better to land directly from Baekje and choose another point to enter the sea. Although the voyage takes a long time, it is relatively stable. After arriving in Baekje, it can be repaired for a period of time."

Li Shimin thinks this proposal is very good.

Fang Xuanling then looked at Li Shimin, bowed and asked: "Your Majesty will also go out with the army, so Chang'an will definitely need people to guard it. I wonder what your Majesty's decision is?"

Li Shimin said a little strangely: "Can't we just let the prince supervise the country?"

After all, he is the prince, Li Shimin's own son. Now that he is the father of the emperor, he must leave one to guard the family!

After everyone heard this, they all felt that this was a good suggestion.

After all, in the court, someone once spread rumors that Li Shimin was dissatisfied with the prince, but at the moment, it seems that he doesn't need to mind this matter.

Now heading to Goryeo, Li Shimin decided to use the strongest combat power of the Tang Dynasty. Among the six departments, four of the six departments, namely, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Husbandry, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs, stayed in Chang'an to guard it.

The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry went out with the army.

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling is responsible for assisting the prince in supervising the country.After all, Fang Xuanling is old, and her body will definitely not be able to bear the long distance.

Changsun Wuji and others will go to Liaodong with Li Shimin.

Although the Tang Dynasty inherited the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty today is not comparable to the Sui Dynasty.

Nowadays, Li Shimin is in his middle age and is full of high spirits. Each of his generals can still kill everyone on the battlefield. The Tang army has 10 cavalry alone, and 10 infantry have arrived in Liaodong.
Li Shimin also decided to reactivate the Xuanjia Army

This is a bodyguard force that Li Shimin trained when he was still the King of Qin. They are all heavy cavalry, and the armaments and horses assembled are the best in the Tang Dynasty. They can frighten the enemy on the battlefield. .

Li Shimin's newly established Divine Machine Battalion is currently undergoing intense training. When the training is sure to be effective, it will be directly taken to the battlefield to verify the powerful destructive power of the Divine Machine Gun on the cavalry.

Now everything is ready, all we need to do is go to war!
"Let these Koreans see that the Tang Dynasty is not something they can look down upon!"

"Let them know what it means to be in heaven!"

Lin Heng came to check out the training ground of Shenji Camp.

After a few days of training, it can be clearly seen that these soldiers have changed their appearance.

Su Dingfang stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Consort Lin, Shenji Camp has made rapid progress during this period. Your Majesty came to check it once in the morning and is very satisfied."

Lin Heng was a little surprised by this: "Can you master it so quickly?"

Su Dingfang chuckled and said: "After all, this is the first expedition of the Shenji Battalion. These soldiers train until very late every day, and the first thing they do when they wake up is training."

Lin Heng nodded, extremely satisfied.

"Let these Koreans see how powerful we are!"

In fact, Lin Heng didn't know why the Koreans had so much courage to provoke the Tang Dynasty. After all, this was no longer the Tang Dynasty at the beginning of the founding of the country. This was the Tang Dynasty after the Zhenguan rule.

Although minor disasters frequently occur in various parts of the Tang Dynasty today, these will not have any impact on the strength of the entire country, especially its military strength.

To be honest, it is only a matter of time before the Tang Dynasty confronts Goryeo and wants to destroy Goryeo.

After all, it is just a small country. Even if it occupies the entire Liaodong land, it has no advantage at all compared to the entire plains of the Tang Dynasty.

No matter in terms of troops, armaments, or food, there is no strength to fight, so these people are almost joking.

Lin Heng immediately sent someone to take out the divine machine cannon from the gunpowder attack and defense.

Everyone immediately stared at the strange-looking black iron cannon with wide eyes.
"Consort Lin, what is this?
Lin Heng chuckled and said, "Don't worry, let you guys take a look at what this is."

Lin Heng quickly found an open space, then had someone push the divine machine cannon over, add ammunition, adjust the anti-aircraft angle, and then ignite the shells.

Under the gaze of a group of soldiers from the Shenji Battalion, the artillery shells roared.

A round cannonball quickly jumped out of the barrel, and then landed accurately. With a loud explosion, everyone was shocked again.

what is this!
