232. Catch turtles in urns


Spring rain is falling, and fog is falling from the sky.

The sea was clear yesterday, but today it has become hazy and poetic.

Liu Wei did not embarrass the Goryeo refugees, but gave them wine and meat, and ordered them to abandon their small boats and board large ships to accompany the army.

After the pacification of Qingzhou, he settled in the local area, taught some basic Goguryeo language to the Han people, and trained a group of soldiers who knew the Korean language, laying a solid foundation for the future Eastern Expedition.

If you want to be an emperor through the ages, the Korean Peninsula bordering Liaodong must be the target of conquest.

In the history of China, there are many great emperors who have taken the conquest of the peninsula as a goal, Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, have worked hard for this goal, and even Yang Guang, the emperor who was called the "tyrant" by later generations, once launched a large-scale attack on Goguryeo.

And now, with so many historical elites gathered around Liu Wei, he naturally can't just focus on this piece of land on the mainland.

Expand the territory and let the banner of China be planted all over the place, so as to live up to the grace of the Creator.

Now is the time to plan ahead "Docked, ready to drop anchor" In the hazy rain and fog, the huge treasure ship was the first to find a suitable shore to anchor.

With Zheng Chenggong's shout, the soldier and the boatman sank a pair of huge anchors weighing 2,000 catties each to the bottom of the sea.

The huge treasure ship immediately anchored steadily on the sea, and I remained unmoved by the wind and waves.

The flagship docked, and other ships of different sizes, buildings, fighting ships, and ships were all looking for suitable terrain to anchor under the command of the captain.

In a short time, this deserted coast was filled with dense warships, and all kinds of flags were blown by the sea breeze, hunting and hunting.

Before disembarking, Liu Wei summoned all the generals and colonels to the main cabin of the big ship to hold a military meeting before landing.

Hanging in the cabin was a newly made topographic map, which Liu Wei asked the court painters to copy compared to his "Great Navigation Chart".

The painting is first-class, the production is excellent, and the county seat, mountains and rivers of Qingzhou are clearly depicted.

There will certainly be errors, but they are already precious in this age of lack of knowledge.

Standing in front of a map that was one zhang long and three feet wide, Liu Wei explained with a wooden pole: "According to the fishermen, the place where we are now on the shore is Jiaoxian.

From here, it is about 350 miles away from Beihai County. ” The civil and military generals headed by Lu Wenlong and Wei Jiang were lined up on both sides, listening attentively to Liu Wei's analysis, and secretly admired the mind and strategy of the Son of Heaven, including Vientiane.

The distance from Jiaoxian to Juxian is not written on the map, how can this young Tianzi calculate about three hundred and fifty miles The wooden pole in Liu Wei's hand moved upward: "From Jiaoxian all the way to the north, walk one hundred and fifty miles and enter the territory of Gaomi County.

It's a mountainous area with treacherous terrain and a great place for ambushes."

Zhao Kuangyin's thinking was faster than others, and when Liu Wei's wooden pole pointed to Gaomi, his eyes had already swept the entire map, and he clapped his hands and applauded: "Your Majesty is really a clever plan, could it be that you want to use the trick of luring the enemy to go deep to lure Yuan Jun to Gaomi, and then ambush him."

Regarding Zhao Kuangyin's words, Liu Wei was not very cold, but felt that this guy was suspected of being a sycophant.

Along the way, Zhao Kuangyin's ability to flatter and flatter is obviously a grade higher than others, otherwise how could Zhao Kuangyin in history be so valued by Chai Rong Of course, what is more important is that Zhao Kuangyin is hard in iron and proficient in everything.

Otherwise, relying on flattery and flattery alone can only be a great eunuch at most, and if you want to be the founding emperor, it will be a fool's dream Although he didn't like Zhao Kuangyin very much in his heart, it did not prevent Liu Wei from thinking that Zhao Kuangyin was a talent. nodded silently at the moment: "What Zhao Qing said is extremely true, I am preparing to fight an ambush battle in Gaomi" After a pause, he continued to analyze: "According to the calculation of the cavalry's daily travel of 300 miles, we will arrive at the seaside where we are now to lure the enemy from Xixian County, and then turn back to Gaomi to the east, and it will take about two days and one night to go back and forth.

And during this time, the infantry can just set up an ambush in Gaomi territory, catch turtles in an urn, and hit Yuan's army" "Your Majesty's clever plan, the ministers are at your disposal" Under the leadership of Zhao Kuangyin, the generals in the cabin praised in unison.

If you want to lure Yuan Bing out of the distance of 200 miles, you must have a good grasp of the bait you put in.

If the number of troops is too small, Yuan Bing will lose interest in pursuit, and it will take a lot of effort to only reap insignificant results, and no one will do anything.

If too many troops are invested, it will arouse Yuan Bing's vigilance, thinking that there will be a large army behind him, so he will become cautious, and it will not be easy to lure him into the trap again.

After weighing for a moment, Liu Wei made a decisive decision: "Since Kuang Yin first guessed my plan to lure the enemy into depth, you will lead 1,200 horsemen to serve as bait, and you must lure Yuan Tan's men and horses to Gaomi territory." ” Zhao Kuangyin gave up his hand to receive the order: "The minister will obey the instructions and will definitely live up to His Majesty's trust" "Why don't you let the young general lure the enemy to drift on the sea all the way, the minister is really itching, I can't wait to rush into the thousands of troops and horses to kill now" Lu Wenlong was envious of Zhao Kuangyin being entrusted with a heavy task.

Lu Wenlong is excellent in martial arts, young and vigorous, Liu Wei is worried about the rise of his killing, and he can't distinguish the priorities, in case he is so frightened that Yuan Jun does not dare to pursue, his plan to lure the enemy into the depths will be in vain.

Naturally, he would not let the young Lu Wenlong carry out the plan to lure the enemy.

In contrast, Zhao Kuangyin, who is still thirty years old, is more stable.

"Wenlong is not in a hurry, I have another important task entrusted to me" Liu Wei comforted Lu Wenlong with a smile and signaled him to be calm.

He also pointed to the topographic map and told Zhao Kuangyin: "After passing Gaomi, you lead your troops to move in the direction of Anqiu, and then launch a surprise attack from the south of Yuan Tan, using suspicious tactics."

In this way, Yuan Tan will mistakenly think that you are a reinforcement who has broken through from the direction of Langya in the south.

When you lead your troops to the east, Yuan Tan will make a wrong judgment and think that your defeat is a panic.

To the east is the endless sea, and there is no way to escape to the sea.

In this way, Yuan Tan will have a plan to lure the enemy in a roundabout way, and there is a chance that Yuan Tan will succeed."

"The minister respectfully obeys His Majesty's orders, and he will definitely live up to his trust."

For Liu Bian's meticulous thoughts, Zhao Kuangyin had to admire the five-body throw.

However, at the age of sixteen, he planned so carefully, and with the increase in the experience of governing the country and the army in the future, and constantly growing and tempering, this will be a mountain that he will never be able to overcome Liu Wei also instructed Zheng Chenggong: "Leave you 2,000 soldiers and boatmen to guard the ship on the shore, and I will lead the other men and horses to march north quickly, and strive to set up an ambush in Gaomi as soon as possible and fight a beautiful ambush battle."

"Sen respectfully obeys His Majesty's orders," Zheng Sen gave his hand to the order.

After the military discussion, when Liu Wei walked out of the cabin with the generals, the drizzle in the sky had completely stopped, the fog under the sky was thicker, and the visibility was less than 20 zhang.

This kind of weather is simply fatal for the scout spies, and Liu Wei can't help but laugh loudly: "The fog is filled, this is the heaven to help our army ambush the Yuan army this time, it will be a big thing, the generals will work hard to move forward, and the hunt for fame is in the present day."

The soldiers were very fast, and after an order from the Son of Heaven, all the soldiers disembarked step by step.

Zhao Kuangyin led 1,200 cavalry to the north first and carried out the plan to lure the enemy.

Liu Wei led more than 8,000 elite soldiers to brave the fog and march northward, aiming at Gaomi.

Under the city of drama, the corpses are piled up like a mountain.

After the failure of the tunnel, Yuan Tan became angry, coupled with the unfavorable battle in Langya, the Han army won successive battles, breaking through the defense line of the Yuan army layer by layer, and it is estimated that it will be able to reach the city of Xixian in five or six days.

This made Yuan Tan decide to launch a desperate attack on Xixian County, breaking the city at all costs, and never giving up his previous achievements Since early yesterday morning, Yuan Jun has once again poured out to storm the county.

There was no tentative attack, and the bayonet rush was directly launched.

After a day of fierce fighting, although the Yuan army once again paid the price of nearly 10,000 casualties, the defenders at the head of the city also lost more than 3,000 people, and the bows and arrows became more and more sparse, and there were fewer and fewer rolling stones and wood.

If it weren't for the deterrence of Taishi Ci's divine shot, as well as the bloody battle between Wei Yan and Tian Zhen, I am afraid that Yuan Jun would have reached the top of the city at this moment.

Seeing that the defenders on the head of the city were getting smaller and smaller, it seemed that there were less than 15,000 people.

Yuan Tan was overjoyed, and on the one hand sent people to Yuan Shao to ask for reinforcements, and on the other hand, he personally immediately went down to the city and supervised the battle with a sword.

Yuan Shao got Yuan Tan's request for help, and ruthlessly drew out 10,000 horses, plus the 10,000 Yellow Turban Army that was reorganized, and handed it over to Chun Yuqiong to command, and galloped to Yuan Tan in the starry night.

With Chun Yuqiong's reinforcements, the Yuan army besieging the city increased from 70,000 to 90,000 again, and the proportion of the defenders in the city suddenly increased to six times.

At the critical moment, the scholars and people of Xixian County ascended to the top of the city under the instigation of Wang Meng, and braved the arrows of the Yuan army to assist Wei Yan in defending the city.

From a few thousand at the beginning, it slowly increased to more than 10,000 people, until the number of people who came to support in the evening increased to 20,000.

Although their combat effectiveness was very low, they were able to give the defenders at the head of the city a breather.

Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the people of Juxian County actually assisted Wei Yan to defend the city, which made Yuan Tan angry and angry.

Waving his sword and roaring: "All the soldiers gave me a siege day and night, after the city was broken, the whole city was slaughtered, the old and the young were not left behind, whether they looted and raped and killed, they did not ask about the crime, and the sons and daughters fought desperately to the death, so that the people in the city who did not know whether they were alive or dead would take their lives to bury the dead soldiers."

"Kill, rob money, rob women" Under the encouragement of Yuan Tan, the red-eyed Yuan Jun held a torch and launched a more fierce siege, hoping to break through the city gate in one breath and wash the county in blood. t1706231537:
