Chapter 655 Ulchi Wende Goes Out (Second Change)

Ulchi Mundeok, the No.1 general of Goguryeo back then, he fortified the wall and cleared the field by the Sashui River, and then feigned surrender to the Sui army formation, watching the Sui army's falsehood, and constantly showing weakness to the Sui army's famous general Zhongwen, and even sent a song Poetry to each other.

In the end, Ulji Mundeok's tenacity and patience were rewarded. The Sui army who pursued Sashui was tired and hungry. Ulji Mundeok flooded the Sui army here and defeated the main force of the Sui army. 30 Sui soldiers returned to Liaodong to write, but there were more than 700 people.In the above table, King Yingyang, who claimed to be the dung and earth minister of Liaodong, ordered his general to behead the soldiers of the Sui army, and erected several temples for thousands of people along the road.Decades later in history, when Li Shimin conquered Goguryeo, it was still visible all the way.

However, Ulji Mundeok, who has been successful for a long time, has become a national hero of Goguryeo, and even promoted to Goguryeo's great opponent.

Now Ulji Wendeok has gray hair all over his head. He twisted his beard and said: "Although there are not many defenders in Nampo, there are still three thousand. No matter if it is Japanese pirates, Silla, or Baekje, it is impossible to have such strength. Win in a fraction of the time."

Gao Jianwu said with a serious expression, "According to what Da told Lu, Zhao Jun is the only one with such strength in this world."

Eulji Wende lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, the Zhao army captured Nanpu within half an hour, which shows that it has been planned for a long time. Li Chongjiu is not Yang Guang back then. Yu Zhongwen, when he attacked Gaimu City a few years ago, he He once drove the people to attack the city, so it can be seen that this person is unscrupulous. In the past few years, we thought that there was Li Tang, but the Turks restrained Li Chongjiu for us, so that he could not look east, but today, he still leads the army to attack the door."

"Besides, if this person doesn't make a move, it's all right. Once he makes a move, he comes at our vitals. This matter is unusual."

"The king will not be careless," Gao Jianwu said to the other ministers immediately: "Immediately ask for help from the five ministries and Mohe, and let them lead their troops to Pyongyang to serve the king."

"It's the king."

Eulji Moondeok said: "In Pyongyang, you must not relax. You, your lord, lead the harem, civil servants, and family members to retreat to Daeseongsan Fortress, while the veterans stay in Pyongyang, and the two sides can echo each other. In case Pyongyang falls, Daesongsancheng is still there. Support until the arrival of the Qin King's army from all walks of life."

"Here, I still have [-] troops from Guilou in the city of Pyongyang, and there are still [-] strong after mobilization. Why should I be afraid of him?" Gao Jianwu hesitated slightly.

Ulji Wende said: "Your Majesty, you and I have both played shogi. Both the winner and loser of shogi are killing the king. Li Chongjiu came here with a light soldier. He wanted to seal the throat with one blow and kill the king directly. As long as we keep the king , stand invincible, even if the city of Pyongyang is lost, it will not be lost."

Gao Jianwu nodded and said: "Okay, I listen to you, I will take the queen mother, queen and [-] soldiers to retreat to Dachengshan City tonight, and the city of Pyongyang will be handed over to you, the big opponent."

Ulji Wende nodded and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the old man can let go of his hands and feet. After a while, today's Chinese people are outstanding."

At the moment Gao Jianwu issued a mobilization order.

Goguryeo established a country with military force, and naturally established a set of top-to-bottom preparations for war.In the later period, Goguryeo tried to imitate the Central Plains and carry out the reform of the prefecture and county system, but the reform has not been thorough, so the domestic system is a system in which the five-part system of the tribal alliance and the city system of the prefecture and county system are parallel.

The people of Goguryeo were divided into city people and valley people, those who lived in the mountain city were called city people, and those who lived in the wild were called valley people.Specifically, Goguryeo is divided into five divisions, each of which has a number of valleys, and each valley has a number of villages; as for the city, which is subordinate to the town, there are thousands of chiefs in the town, and the hundred chiefs below the thousand chiefs.

The big city set up Masa, which is equivalent to the state governor of the Sui Dynasty, the central city set up Lupizhi, which was equivalent to the county guard of the Sui Dynasty, and the small city set up Lou Xiao, which was equivalent to the county magistrate of the Sui Dynasty.After the reform of the prefecture and county system, although the power of the five tribes has been weakened, they are still the governor of a big city. The King of Goguryeo has always come from the Guilou tribe, and the Guilou tribe has intermarried with the Juannu tribe for generations to maintain power.

So the first thing Gao Jianwu mobilized was the soldiers of Guilou's tribe. There were [-] of them, and they were all excellent fighters.Afterwards, Gao Jianwu dispatched troops to the surrounding Zhongcheng and small towns, and recruited [-] soldiers from the people of Gumin City.These troops are all led by their respective city lords, Lu Pizhi and Lou Xiao. Although there are many people, they are very mixed. Their combat strength is worrying, but they can still defend the city.

As for the real five tribes, although each has tens of thousands of horses in their hands, the cities where they are located are too far away from Pyongyang.For example, Sayuan Gaisuwen, who was stationed in Liaodong City and guarded the defense line of the Great Wall, led the most elite troops in Goguryeo. It would take at least two months to reach Pyongyang.

But in any case, Gao Jianwu's Guilou Department resisted the Sui Dynasty against Goguryeo several times, led the people of Goguryeo to continuous victories, and had a high prestige in Goguryeo.The city lords on all sides of Pyongyang heard that Zhao Jun was going upstream from the Wei River to attack Pyongyang City, so they rushed to support Pyongyang City from all directions.

When Li Chongjiu arrived under the city of Pyongyang, Goguryeo had already mobilized an army of 3 horses, and new troops joined every day.

The city of Pyongyang is surrounded by the Taedong River and the Tongjiang River. The Tongjiang River passes through the west gate of Pyongyang, which is called the Tongmen Gate.The East Gate of Pyongyang City, where the Datong River flows through.

Although it is the capital of Goguryeo, Pyongyang City is not big. Eulji Mundeok immediately ordered [-] troops from the headquarters of the Guilou Department to station in the city, and the remaining [-] troops were divided into three groups, stationed in the east, west, and south of Pyongyang City. Three doors ago.

As for Gao Jianwu, leading five thousand royal guards, he took his clan, nobles, and family members with him to retreat to Dacheng Mountain City for a temporary stay.

You must know the meaning of Goguryeo, which is a castle built in the mountains, which is the story of its family building a city with mountains.Therefore, Goguryeo paid special attention to the construction of the mountain city, which is reflected in the three capitals of Goguryeo.For example, before Goguryeo moved its capital, the capital was in Zubenjing, the city below the mountain was Xiaguzi City, and the city above the mountain was named Wunvshan City.

The same is true of Pyongyang. The city of Pyongyang is at the foot of the mountain, where the water flows together, which is convenient for transportation and manages the four directions. However, when the capital is threatened by the war, the royal family retreats to Dacheng Mountain City.

Such a design of one capital and two cities was miraculously effective when Lai Huer attacked Pyongyang.When Lai Huer attacked Pyongyang City, he thought that Goguryeo had been broken, so he sent troops to plunder, but he did not expect that although the Goguryeo people were defeated, they retreated to Dacheng Mountain City. After nightfall, they regrouped and counterattacked Pyongyang City. The Sui army was defeated.

Lai Huer was defeated because of his carelessness in using troops, and secondly, he did not expect such a design in Goguryeo Kyoto.

Just when Eulji Mundeok was setting up a formation under the city of Pyongyang, the two coalition forces of Zhao Guo and Xinluo had also arrived under the city of Goguryeo in mighty force.
