Liu Song Hanque

Goguryeo.

People in Hebei are no strangers to this old neighbor.

As early as the second year of Jianzhao in the Western Han Dynasty, that is, in 37 BC, Prince Ju Mong of Buyeo escaped from Buyeo and came to Buyeo, where he founded Goguryeo.

Because of the natural hostility with Buyeo, Goguryeo has been engaged in a long and arduous military war with Buyeo for more than two hundred years, and its gradually expanding ambitions also led to military actions against it by the Eastern Han Dynasty.

However, as soon as the army of the Han Dynasty came, they hid in the deep mountains and old forests. The Eastern Han Dynasty did not completely get rid of the disease of mustard moss. Goguryeo, which gradually developed, expanded from the northeast to the Liaodong Peninsula, occupying the northern part of the Korean Peninsula, and the southern part of the peninsula. The two native countries of North Korea, Baekje and Silla, were listed as the "Three Heroes of Korea", and later generations called it the "Three Kingdoms Era".

During the period of the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms in the Central Plains, a Goguryeo virtuous king, the Xiaoshoulin King, succeeded to the throne, introduced Buddhism from the Central Plains, set up "Tai Xue", reformed the army, and made Goguryeo's national power skyrocket.

After the death of King Xiaoshoulin, his son Haotae succeeded to the throne and took more aggressive military actions against Baekje and Silla. There are even historical records that King Haotae conquered 64 cities of Buyeo in the first battle. villages.

As for the current king of Goguryeo, he is the son of King Haotae, King Changshou.

King Changshou was also considered a fierce man in the history of Goguryeo. He took advantage of the war between Tuoba Tao and Beiyan to seize the land of Liao. Xuantu County, Lelang County, Lintun County and Zhenfan County established in the Western Han Dynasty The four Han counties such as the county also fell into the hands of Goguryeo.

Not long ago, in order to avoid the powerful Liu Song on the one hand, and to strengthen the control of Baekje and Silla on the other hand, the long-lived king moved the capital of Goguryeo from the domestic city in the northeast to Pyongyang on the plain of the Han River Since then, Pyongyang has become the political center of the powers of the Korean peninsula.

For how to attack Goguryeo, Liu Yizhen also knew it well——

Huge ships and cannons!
As a result of going overland, both Yang Guang and Li Shimin tried it, not saying it was impossible, but at least it was difficult.

And Liu Yizhen never thought of spending too long on Goguryeo.

a month?

A little hurry.

That's three months.

A team composed of Wang Zhen'e, Zhu Lingshi, Tan Daoji and other famous generals came up with a feasible plan after a few days.

Liu Song's navy gathered from Lulonggang in Hebei, and divided into three groups, and went directly to the three seaside cities of Goguryeo - Lilinkou (roughly today's Yingkou), Beishe (now Dalian), Dandong (now Dandong) Attack.

After winning the three cities and ensuring logistics, the army can raid the capital of Koguryo from the sea—Pyongyang!
"But the attack from the sea cannot be exposed for the time being."

The most important thing to attack from the sea is to be fast and not to delay.

Slow, it is likely to cause the enemy to stick to the city and miss the opportunity.

So before Liu Song's navy took action, Liu Yizhen had to put a few smoke bombs on Goguryeo.

The next day, a call to action against Goguryeo was issued.

The above listed the Goguryeo army’s harassment of the people in the land of Youyan over the years, and stood at the commanding heights of morality and legal principles and scorned the birth of the Goguryeo country. In the end, Liu Yizhen even claimed to send [-] troops to attack the Goguryeo country.

Liu Yizhen even went to Ji County to inspect the army in person, releasing a strong attack signal.

When the news reached Goguryeo, their Longevity King was also dumbfounded.

Ever since the Northern Wei Dynasty was destroyed by Liu Yizhen, King Changshou knew that something was wrong.

However, according to his prediction, Liu Song tried his best to destroy the Northern Wei Dynasty, and even went out of the fortress to complete the feat of sealing wolves and living in Xuxu, so it should be time to stop for a while.

During the period when Liu Song stopped, it was the time for his Longevity King to show his talents. At that time, he only needed to send a few letters to Chang'an, and then sent one or two princes. No more trouble with Goguryeo.

After all, as far as this Longevity King knows, Beiliang still occupies the Hexi Corridor!Liu Yizhen didn't need to go far and wide to conquer him.

But obviously, the longevity king's judgment was wrong.

The [-] troops of the Song Army have already assembled in Ji County, and they may cross the Liaoxi Corridor to attack the core hinterland of Goguryeo at any time.

"How can this be good?"

The long-lived king in the Pyongyang palace is anxious like ants on a hot pot.

"The proclamation issued by Liu Yizhen is really hateful!"

"Why, Goguryeo has repeatedly violated the borders of the Great Song Dynasty, and spared the people of the Great Song Dynasty..."

"At that time, the Jin family of their Han people were all driven to the land of the Southern Barbarians! He, the Liu family, is not the master of the court, how could they have the face to issue such a statement!"

One hundred thousand troops!

One hundred thousand!

You must know that there are less than [-] households in Goguryeo!

The entire Goguryeo army has only 3000 soldiers. Counting some low-strength county soldiers, at most [-] people can be recruited, and some farmers and prisoners can be recruited temporarily.

Ten thousand against one hundred thousand.

How to fight this?
Not to mention that Liu Song's army was an invincible army who had just swept the world, and even the powerful Xianbei were defeated by him. King Changshou really didn't have the courage to confront Liu Yizhen head-on.

"Your Majesty!"

At this time, Gao Zhuduo, the son of the Changshou King, challenged the Changshou King.

"Foreign invasion, there is only one war!"

"Although Liu Yizhen has many generals, is wise and brave, and is invincible in the world, and his subordinates are even more powerful like Wang Zhen'e, Zhu Lingshi, and Zhu Chaoshi, but they are not without weaknesses!"

"Coming from Hebei, it is necessary to cross the [-]-mile Liaoxi Ancient Road, which is full of swamps and bunkers, which are not suitable for a large number of equipment and vehicles to pass through, so the Song Army must not be able to transport too much food to the front line!"

"As long as our army can withstand the first wave of the Song army's offensive and continue to send cavalry to cut off the Song army's food and grass, then the Song army's army will inevitably fall into a predicament without food. If it takes a long time, the Song army will definitely retreat!"

Gao Zhuduo even had stronger ambitions: "As long as the Song army retreats, we will be able to take advantage of the situation and hunt down, and even wipe out this army in one fell swoop, killing Liu Yizhen!"

"The Song army has just pacified Hebei. If the army is gone, the emperor will die...Father! I, Goguryeo, may not be able to conquer the Central Plains like Xianbei and achieve supremacy!"

"hiss!!!!"

Everyone was shocked by what Gao Zhuduo said about Wang Tubaye.

Just when everyone was thinking about how to deal with the Song army, Gao Zhuduo had already started planning to counterattack Hebei!

The Longevity King shouted involuntarily: "Wonderful! Wonderful!"

"This is indeed a clever plan! Maybe it can really defeat Song Jun!"

"Immediately designate you as the Great General of Goguryeo, and lead the whole country's troops to march westward, and must resist the Song army!"

"My son takes orders!"

The Longevity King looked at Gao Zhuduo's heroic and vigorous figure with delight, and praised the courtiers around him: "I never thought that my son has the qualifications of an emperor!"

"If you have a child like this, why worry about me being unhappy in Goguryeo!"
