Infinite War Begins with Cao Thief

Chapter 416: Conquering Goryeo

When Dayu decided to march north, it was far from unifying Yingzhou.

In fact, the Yingzhou that Dong Huang actually controlled now, that is, the area near the capital, is only about a quarter of the four islands of Yingzhou.

The remaining areas are controlled by war agents authorized by Dong Huang, some are controlled by indigenous people, some are controlled by so-called gods, and some are in remote mountains and old forests, and even the residences of Ainu people. In addition, there are resistance forces of war agents.

The areas of Yingzhou that are not directly controlled by Dayu are already in a mess.

But even if it is more chaotic, even if the hundred ghosts lead the beasts to eat people, Dayu has no time to care at this time.

Anyway, the people being eaten are not good people.

For Dayu at this time, the affairs of Yingzhou are actually a foregone conclusion. It is only a matter of time before Yingzhou is completely ruled. There is no need to rush.

The most important thing at the moment is to expand the sphere of influence, seize strategic space, enhance the strength of soldiers, and prepare for the final seizure of Kyushu.

Kyushu is the center of everything.

If you want to expand your sphere of influence, there are only three ways: north, south, and west.

Going south means attacking Ryukyu and Chitu, going west means landing in Shandong and confronting the Sui Dynasty head-on, and going north means attacking the three kingdoms on the Korean Peninsula.

Going south was rejected first because time was precious in the early stage, and Dayu would never use its precious combat power and transportation capacity on the island chain with extremely low production value.

Going west was also unrealistic because the Sui Dynasty was at its peak at that time, at least at its peak military power. It was extremely unwise to confront the Sui Dynasty head-on. If you lose, it goes without saying. If you win, the Sui Dynasty may not attack Goryeo directly, but concentrate on fighting Dayu.

Of course, if you can't fight directly, you may not be able to make trouble. It is still possible to send spies and organize volunteers.

In recent years, due to the heavy corvee labor of the Sui Dynasty, many small bandits have actually appeared in the Sui Dynasty.

In March this year, Wang Bo, a native of Zouping, incited the people to raise the anti-Sui rebellion flag for the first time with Changbai Mountain (now Huixian Mountain in Zouping, Shandong) as the base. The people who avoided conscription took the initiative to gather under Wang Bo's rebellion flag, reaching tens of thousands.

When Emperor Yang of Sui failed to conquer Goryeo, there will be more rebellions.

This is also a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Dong Huang believes that many war agents in the Great Sui think so.

Everyone is waiting for the collapse of the Great Sui, but no war agent is willing to be the first to come forward.

The war agents just want to wait and pick up the bargains behind the natives.

The war agents who can survive in this world are all proficient in how to preserve their strength and how to fish in troubled waters.

Let's get back to the point. Since the roads to the south and west are blocked and the east is full of water, Dayu has no choice but to go north to the Korean Peninsula.

At this time, there were three countries on the Korean Peninsula. The most powerful one was Goryeo, which occupied Liaodong and the north-central part of the Korean Peninsula, followed by Silla and Baekje, which were located in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula.

According to the historical process, Silla would soon have two empresses, both of whom were canonized by the Tang Dynasty. It is hard to say whether Wu Zetian in history saw that there were empresses in Japan and Korea, so she wanted to become an empress.

Because there were three countries coexisting on the Korean Peninsula, Korean historians also called this period of history the Three Kingdoms Period.

And the area of ​​Goryeo in the historical map was expanded to the Yangtze River Basin, and Li Shimin was shot blind in one eye in the film and television drama.

Jin Fushi, a subordinate of Dong Huang in the Song, Liao, Jin and Xia worlds, also wrote a book "History of the Three Kingdoms" in history.

Although in fact Goryeo was established by the Buyeo people, and the Buyeo people were originally ministers of the Han Dynasty, they didn't care at all.

In terms of the order of conquering the three countries on the Korean Peninsula, the top leaders of Dayu were very consistent-attack Goryeo first!

After staying in Yingzhou for almost two months, Dong Huang has actually completed the main task of this world with ease.

During this period, thousands of alien war agents died under the attack of Dong Huang's army, which brought Dong Huang a lot of rewards and implicit qualification improvement for all forces.

In addition to this main task that has been completed but is still effective, the task with the greatest reward at this stage is [Three Expeditions to Goryeo].

Dayu intends to eat both ends, first destroy Goryeo, and then defeat Yang Guang to obtain the greatest benefits.

As for Silla and Baekje, which are neighbors of Japan, they can be put aside for the time being like other regions in Yingzhou.

Anyway, it is not necessary to pass through Silla and Baekje by land.

Compared with the land route, Dong Huang actually prefers to take the waterway.

Dayu's plan is to directly cross the sea and land by water to pierce Goryeo's cool point Wangxiancheng!

Cross-sea landing or amphibious landing is actually not a mode that only exists in modern warfare.

In history, both the Sui and Tang dynasties did this, and they both attacked Goryeo.

When Emperor Yangdi of the Sui Dynasty first conquered Goryeo, General Huer crossed the sea and landed, breaking the Wangxiancheng Guoguo for a time.

Guoguo is the outer city of a large city.

Xue Wanche, a general of the Tang Dynasty, joined the expedition to Goryeo, entered the Yalu River, and defeated the Goryeo army.

To some extent, the Korean Peninsula is in conflict with amphibious landing.

This strategy of Dayu is actually the strategy proposed by Duan Wenzhen, the Minister of War of the Sui Dynasty in history.

Duan Wenzhen said: "The clown in Liaodong has not served a severe sentence... The barbarians are many deceivers, so they need to be careful. They talk about surrender, but have betrayal in their hearts... I only hope that the troops will be severely restrained, and the stars will advance quickly, both on land and water, to catch them by surprise. The isolated city of Pyongyang can be evacuated. If its roots are destroyed, the rest of the city will be defeated..."

The Pyongyang that Duan Wenzhen refers to is Wangxian City and the capital of Goryeo.

For Dayu, the best result is that after taking Wangxian City, Goryeo surrenders directly.

However, it doesn't matter if Goryeo still refuses to surrender even after taking Wangxian City. Dayu could completely rely on its naval superiority to cut off the Liao River and the Yalu River, divide Goryeo, and eliminate the possibility of surrender to the Sui Dynasty, so as to annex Goryeo before the Sui Dynasty was able to conquer the east.

After that, they can replace Goryeo and wait for Yang Guang's attack.

After defeating the Sui Dynasty's first Eastern Expedition, it would not be too late to free up Yingzhou, Silla, and Baekje.

As for whether Yang Guang will continue the Eastern Expedition after Dayu replaces Goryeo, the answer is yes, because as early as last year, Yang Guang was preparing to attack Goryeo because Goryeo was friendly to the Turks, and had already begun preparing horses and ordnance.

This year, an edict has been issued to conquer Goryeo, but it will take time to build ships, gather troops, and transport food, so we will wait for the official start of the war next year.

By then, even if Dayu had replaced Goryeo, the Sui Dynasty had been mobilizing troops for so long and had killed and injured countless people. Is it possible that it could still stop?

Even if Sui took ten thousand steps back and wanted to stop, wouldn't Dayu still take the initiative to add fuel to the fire?

Simply sending someone to deliver a letter of credence insulting Yang Guang for being as cowardly as a rat and killing his father and mother would be enough for him to start a war.

Therefore, this battle is inevitable unless Sui Emperor Yang Guang dies early!

In order to ensure that the operation goes as smoothly as possible, Dayu dispatched a super luxurious lineup this time.

Jia Xu, who had not left Dong Huang's side for many years, got the right to command the front line, controlling Fazheng, Guo Jia, Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Zhou Tai, Yue Fei, Jiang Qin, Hua Tuo, Han Xin, Le Jin, Han Shizhong, Hua Generals such as Xiong, He Qi, Yang Zaixing, Gao Chong, Ma Dai, Dianman, Xu Yi, Zhang Hu, Gong Shuqiu, Lu Meng, Zhang Lu, Xiaomeng, etc., all commanding troops are equipped with the Divine Bird Type One armor. The fourth-level generals, 200,000 mythical third-level elite soldiers, and 1.8 million mythical second-level elites entered the mouth of the Zhushui River, divided the land and water armies, and went upstream along the Zhushui River to attack Wangxian City.

(Goryeo Situation Map)

When a lion fights a rabbit, he also uses all his strength.

If the King of Goryeo had known that Dayu had sent such a powerful military combination, he would have smiled. After all, even Wang Jian could not force Dayu to use such a combination of civil and military forces.

As for the soldiers, Dayu now has a total of more than 10,000 mythical fourth-level generals, more than 300,000 mythical third-level elite soldiers, and more than 5 million mythical second-level elites, leaving behind those who have gone to other worlds to perform missions and the Hokage source world. Yes, sending so many people this time was a huge investment.

This time, Dayu had even considered the possibility of the existence of the evil Buddha's clone or even the evil Buddha in Goryeo. He was already ready to kill the gods and was determined to defeat Goryeo in one go.

The army was unstoppable all the way.

Although due to the overall expansion of the world map, the area of ​​Goryeo is much larger than in history, and Wangxian City is further from the coast than a certain blue star. It is not possible to land on the front foot, and you can rush to Wangxian City on the same day. city. But the corresponding rivers are also wider and the valleys and plains are larger, which is very convenient for marching.

The only problem is that the river water is not abundant this season, making it difficult to transport on a large scale, but it is not a big problem.

Dayu is not Soochow, and it will not fight without the navy.

The most powerful force in Dayu has always been the cavalry!

By surprise, Dayu's army encountered almost no decent resistance.

Occasionally, there are cities that are not eye-catching, especially those of war agents, but they basically do not cause any disturbance.

The main reason is that the dimensionality reduction blow is too terrible.

At this stage, the city defenses of most Goryeo indigenous cities simply cannot stop the Dayu army equipped with the Divine Bird Type 1 armor.

Dayu's army can completely fly over with a run-up, and then use the armor's ability to absorb the city wall, and use both hands and feet to easily board the city.

It only takes less than fifty breaths to go from a thousand meters away from the city wall to climbing onto the city wall.

And everyone is heavily armored!

Originally, the war agents of Goryeo were about the same strength as the war agents of Yingzhou. There were only a few hundred mythical third-level generals in each war agent city, and they were not as good as the mythical fourth-level generals sent by Dayu to attack the city. a large amount.

Dayu's armor is even more powerful. It is so powerful that warriors of the third level of Mythology can exert the combat effectiveness of the fourth level of Mythology with the increase of military formation and armor, and those of the second level of Mythology can also exert their combat effectiveness of the third level of Mythology.

How to fight this?

However, this is not the most abominable thing.

The most disgusting thing is that people know magic!

Before attacking, there should be a heavy fog first, then long-range shooting with crossbows, and then throw some thunder and lightning, fireballs or make some good-looking fire dragon bullets, earth dragon bullets, water dragon bullets and the like.

Let's not talk about the lethality, at least the morale of the defenders will be destroyed in this way.

What a fart!

There's no way to fight!

Dayu's army was invincible all the way.

Agents of war along the way fled in panic. Those who were lucky enough to escape to the mountains were left alone, but those who were unlucky were caught up and brutally strangled by Dayu's cavalry.

News of the enemy invasion soon spread to Wangxian City.

Goryeo King Gaoyuan was shocked.

"Is... is it the Sui Dynasty calling?"

Gao Yuan's voice was trembling.

"Brother Wang, according to the messenger who reported the letter, the enemy's flags, armor and weapons are not Sui costumes. There seems to be a word "Yu" on the flag. However, because no prisoners have been captured, we don't know which force it is. I only know that There are at least a million troops, and everyone is heavily armored! They can cast spells, and they seem to have help from demons. It’s obvious that the enemy’s spells are not very powerful!”

Gao Yuan's half-brother Gao Jianwu replied calmly.

Gao Jianwu made great achievements in history. He defeated Laihu'er who invaded the outer city of Wangxian City, and became the next King of Goryeo. He was a very courageous member of the royal family. However, in history, he was killed by the powerful minister Yeon Gaesumun.

Gao Jianwu's words were like a bolt from the blue, making Gao Yuan even more panicked.

"This...what should we do? Brother Wang, quickly mobilize the army to come back for reinforcements!"

Gao Yuan has lost his sense of proportion.

Goryeo still has a large army, and there is no shortage of elites of the third and fourth levels of mythology. The number of elites can reach about 600,000. In addition, there are more than two million mythical second-level soldiers and civilians who can be recruited as auxiliary troops.

Having so many elite soldiers gave Goryeo the confidence to fight against the Sui Dynasty.

In fact, just looking at the number of elite third- and fourth-level mythical soldiers, Goryeo was almost twice as many as Dayu, and three times as many as Dayu could dispatch.

But the problem is that Dayu has an advantage in equipment.

This advantage is enough for the Dayu Mythical Warriors dispatched this time to guarantee the third-level combat effectiveness of Mythology.

Rounding off, Da Yu is equivalent to an army of two million people capable of exerting the strength of the Myth Level 3 and Myth Level 4 at once.

Even after excluding the navy, the number of Dayu's army that landed directly was about 1.7 million.

Basically three times the elite troops of Goryeo.

Not only that, most of Goryeo's elite soldiers were not in Wangxian City at this time.

Although Goryeo is a country, it is more like a tribal alliance.

There are five major tribes in Goryeo:

One name is Huang, that is, the Guilou tribe of the Eastern Han Dynasty. This tribe belongs to the first generation of Goryeo Hou Gao Zhumeng. It is commanded by the Goryeo royal family. It used to live near the Hunjiang River. Now it mainly gathers in Wangxian City and other Goryeo tribes. In the hinterland, there are about 200,000 elite soldiers.

In the north of the second day, there is a rear group, that is, the Juenu tribe of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is mainly distributed in the area north of the Hunjiang River. The King of Goryeo selected women from his tribe for marriage, and his tribe Laisa (chief) Gao Yanshou had about 120,000 elite soldiers. .

Third, in the east, there is a left tribe, that is, the Shunnu tribe of the Eastern Han Dynasty. They are mainly distributed in the east of the upper and middle reaches of the Hunjiang River and the Yalu River. They have 150,000 elite soldiers. The Lisa is Yuan Taizuo, who is also the main enemy of Goryeo. Lu (prime minister). His son was the famous Yeon Gaesumun, who was the main opponent of the Tang Dynasty's eastern expedition to Goryeo in history, and was also the powerful official who killed Gao Jianwu in history.

Fourth, in the south, there is a front group, that is, the slave slave tribe of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is mainly located south of Wangxian City. Gao Huizhen is the leader of Laisa, with 80,000 elite soldiers.

Wuyue Wubu, one of the right tribes, that is, the Xiaonu tribe of the Eastern Han Dynasty. This tribe used to be the core of the five tribes of Goguryeo. It was the former royal family of Goguryeo. It was later replaced by the Guilou tribe. Its status is gradually declining, with only more than 50,000 elite soldiers. People are mainly distributed in the Hunjiang River Basin, and their current leader is Fu Cailin.

Although the five major tribes have not many troops, in order to fight against the Sui Dynasty, they have been deployed to the Liaodong front line in large numbers.

In order to fight against the invasion of the Sui Dynasty, Goryeo began to make arrangements when the Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen, and a total of three lines of defense were operated.

The first line of defense was the Liao River defense line, with the core being Liaodong City (today's Liaoyang City). This place "relyed on its remoteness, richness of salt and iron, and vastness of the original land. It was enough to claim its own title, so it recruited neighboring counties and drove Xi Jie to take advantage of it." "If there is a gap in the defense, there must be a tendency to overthrow." It is an important town among the important towns in Liaodong. If this line of defense can be defended, it can completely prevent the enemy from outside the country.

Gao Yuan ordered his commander Lu Yuan Taizuo to lead 100,000 troops from his headquarters and 80,000 troops from Gao Yanshou's troops to defend. At present, various ministries have made various preliminary preparations, and many supplies, armor and soldiers have gathered there.

The second line of defense is the Yalu Water Defense Line. The upper reaches of the Yalu River are covered by Gaima Mountain as a barrier. Gaima Mountain was called Buxian Mountain in ancient times and was called Changbai Mountain in the Jin Dynasty. The core of the Yalu Water Defense Line is Wandu City (today's Ji'an City), which was originally the former capital of Goryeo. To the north of Wandu, there are the remaining mountains of Gaima Mountain, and the former capital of Goguryeo in the Han Dynasty, Goguryeo City (today's north of Xinbin County, Fushun). To the west of Goguryeo City, there is Xincheng, and to the northeast of Xincheng, there are Nansu, Mudi and other cities, which form the front line of defense of Wandu.

The third line of defense was the Sashui (today's Qingchuan River) line of defense, but this line of defense was basically the last line of defense in Wangxian City.

For the last two lines of defense, Gowon ordered the royal general Eulji Mundeok to defend the two lines with 100,000 royal soldiers and 100,000 other troops. At this time, various mobilizations had begun.

The three lines of defense basically deployed 400,000 troops. In addition, Gao Huizhen's more than 80,000 elite troops also had to defend Baekje and Silla in the south. As a result, Gao Yuan could mobilize only 100,000 elite troops in a hurry. People.

According to Dayu's marching speed, Gao Yuan could only gather 150,000 elites and mobilize 200,000 people in the city at most, and Dayu had already arrived at the city.

How could Gao Yuan not panic?

"For the present plan, the only way is to fight to the death. If you dare me, please ask God Gao Deng and God Fu Yu!"

Gao Jianwu said decisively.

Godengod is the first Goryeo Hou Gojumong, and Buyeogod is Gojumong’s mother, Lady Yoohwa.

Legend has it that Mrs. Liuhua was the daughter of He Bo, and gave birth to Gao Jumeng with Yehe, the son of the Emperor of Heaven. Moreover, Gao Jumeng was born from a flesh ball like Nezha.

It is impossible to verify the truth, but it is true that Gao Jumong and Lady Liuhua have been worshiping in Goryeo temples.

According to the secrets of the Goryeo royal family, before Gao Jumeng was killed by Wang Mang, he left life-saving relics to his descendants. His relics and those of Lady Liuhua were enshrined in the Yin-Yang Fish in the ancestral temple.

Through the ritual of inviting gods, two people can gain the power of gods respectively, and can also get five hundred powerful magic weapons.

"My brother, Shenwu, can invite God Gaodeng, but who can take on the important task? God Fuyu? There is no woman in the royal family who can withstand divine power!"

Gao Yuan sighed.

It's not easy to ask God, it's even harder to send Him away.

Gao Jianwu is the most powerful man in the royal family. He can barely afford the price of inviting God Gao Deng, but who can bear the price of inviting God Fuyu?

If two gods cannot be summoned at the same time, five hundred divine soldiers cannot be summoned.

"Fu Cailin has a disciple, Fu Junma, who is in Wangxian City. He is extremely talented and has great martial arts skills. He can withstand the power of the gods!"

Gao Jianwu obviously had plans.

"Are you crazy? You dare to touch Mr. Fu's apprentice!"

Gao Yuan was so frightened that he stood up directly.
