Zhuangda Tang Juvenile Lang

Chapter 481 Plan ahead
Qin Feng remained silent. He put down his wine glass and said slowly: "Ever since the Shang and Zhou dynasties, Liaodong has been our territory. We have never thought of giving up. Those clowns in Goguryeo took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to live in our territory. Even for hundreds of years, but they won’t be around for long. No matter how stupid Yang Guang is, his purpose is good, and he sent troops to regain his homeland. But Goguryeo not only refused to return my territory, but also slaughtered me There are millions of warriors and compatriots. Therefore, I hate this despicable nation no less than you. Judging from the current situation, it is indeed a good opportunity to regain my homeland. I can answer your request, and I will take it personally. You face holy. It's just..."

Qin Feng smiled bitterly and said: "It's just that you don't have too much hope, Brother Qiu. Today's sage is wise and powerful, he is not Yang Guang, and he will not forcefully send troops according to his temper. Even if His Majesty wants to send troops on his own will, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs will also To speak out. The East Turks were the most powerful overlord at the beginning. There is nothing wrong with that. However, the Turks are located in flat grasslands. Relatively speaking, the conditions in Goguryeo are even worse, both in terms of terrain and weather. It is not comparable to the Turks. When Yang Guang sent troops to attack Goguryeo, it cost a lot of money. Goguryeo’s Ulji Wende saw through the weakness of the Sui army’s poor logistics, and gave the Sui Dynasty seven victories with the tactics of luring the enemy deep. Lengthen the front line of the Sui army. Then the Sui army was forced to retreat by feigning surrender, and then a flood of water wiped out 30 Sui soldiers. The main force of the Goguryeo army descended from the sky and launched a fierce attack on the Sui army. The hungry Sui army was powerless at all In the battle, all the armies were defeated at the first touch and fled. Therefore, the various tests faced by the Goguryeo war were only more than that of the northern Turkic conquest, and nothing less. Our Tang Dynasty has just retreated from the front line for less than half a year, and it is impossible to launch a large-scale A huge expedition. This unreasonable expedition is not called an expedition, it is called a waste of money. Why did Yang Guang’s congregation betray their relatives? It is only because Yang Guang, who is so high, only has his own great achievements in his eyes. How can he understand the suffering of the people! This can also explain Why did the people of the Sui Dynasty cut off their own hands and feet in order to avoid the terrible service, and happily called their severed hands and feet Fushou Fuzu? What a miserable thing, facing this miserable situation However, the common people are smiling happily, because they don’t have to serve corvee when they are disabled.”

"In terms of civil governance, Emperor Wen Yang Jian is not inferior to the cultural scene of the Han Dynasty, and the military strategy is far beyond the reach of the cultural scene. Under his painstaking management, the treasury is abundant, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the country is rich and the people are strong. In five years, the country has a total of 890 There are more than 5000 households, and the population is as high as 200 million. However, at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there were less than [-] million households. The money and food were used for fighting, but the population of the Tang Dynasty was small, so where did the large amount of money and food needed for the march come from? Come? If taxes are increased, the result may be wars and disasters. The lessons learned from the past, especially not far away, how can you not know it with your majesty's wisdom?"

Qiu Yi listened carefully all the time. He had studied military affairs since he was a child, and he knew that fighting is about fighting for money and food, not just fighting.I agree with Qin Feng's words very much.It's just that when a pair of eyes full of longing and anticipation appeared in his mind, he was suddenly in a state of confusion, and he slammed his fist heavily on the table, making a loud bang. Said: "Could it be that the heaven-sent opportunity to regain the homeland has been missed in vain?"

Qin Feng smiled mysteriously, and said: "Not necessarily, as long as what you said is true, it is still very useful. At least before Datang has enough economic strength to send troops, it is still possible for them to fight to the detriment of both sides..."

Throughout the ages, everyone has his own standards for knowing people.

Qin Feng is no exception.

Qiu Yi is not very old, but he is steady and sophisticated, and his every move is bold and straightforward, which makes people feel good about him. Qin Feng believes his words.

The definition of Qiu Yi in Qin Feng's mind at this moment: Either he is a patriot who has been dormant in Goguryeo for many years, or he is a great liar with unparalleled deceit.

Even if it is a liar, so what?
I am just a messenger, whether I want to meet or not depends entirely on Li Shimin's will.

Even if Qiu Yi had evil intentions, as a commoner, he was tens of meters away from Li Shimin, without any weapons, and wanted to do any harm to Li Shimin, who had reached a first-class level of martial arts, in full view of the public.Even the peerless masters like Xiang Yu can't do it.If Qiu Yi didn't want to assassinate Li Shimin, but planned to use conspiracy to avoid traps.It doesn't matter, the Tang Dynasty is so powerful, doesn't it have its own intelligence network?
They have a lot of time to verify the suitability. If it is true, it is naturally a good thing. If Qiu Yi has another ulterior motive, why can't he just follow his plan?

Qin Feng is no longer a rookie in the political arena, and he also considers this matter from many aspects.Of course, this doesn't mean that he doesn't trust Qiu Yi, it's just that he is in a high position, so he needs to be cautious in everything so as not to hurt his family.

Qin Feng grandly entertained Qiu Yi, and at the same time asked in detail about the situation of Goguryeo.

Qiu Yi knew everything without saying anything, and told Qin Feng everything he knew.

Qin Feng nodded again and again, which was almost the same as he imagined.

Goguryeo's strength is limited, and the real difficulty lies in the climate.In history, Li Shimin's conquest of Goguryeo was also affected by the climate and environment.In that battle, Li Shimin personally fought and had not commanded a battle for many years. The military level of the former supreme military commander of the Tang Dynasty was by no means unfamiliar.Leading the tiger and wolf division of the Tang Dynasty, they attacked the cities and villages all the way, broke Liaodong City, Kegaimu City, Dingbeisha City, and grandly paraded by the Yalu River.During this expedition to Goguryeo, the Tang army conquered Xuantu, Hengshan, Gaimu, Momi, Liaodong, Baiyan, Beisha, Maigu, Yinshan, and Houhuangshicheng. Only paid the price of two thousand soldiers.

Such a record, compared with Yang Guang, is a world of difference.But in the end Li Shimin withdrew his troops. Under the harsh environment, Anshicheng, the bridgehead fortress of Goguryeo, blocked his progress.The battle line was too long, the consumption was too great, and the country could not be without a king. Li Shimin had to take the captives and surrendered Goguryeo officers and chiefs with more than [-] people to withdraw to the Central Plains.Although this battle hit Goguryeo hard, it regained the homeland of Liaodong and returned the lost land to the embrace of China, which is a rare victory.The proud Li Shimin couldn't accept the victory because he failed to destroy Goguryeo after all, and thought he had failed.

Now is an excellent opportunity. I remember that in history, Yuan Dazuo’s son—Yuan Gai Suwen directly relied on superior forces to kill the king of Goguryeo, King Rongliu, and stabilized the situation in Goguryeo with iron and blood. All the power of Goguryeo turned into a smelly and hard stone to stop Tang Jun.

Although Yuan Dazuo is a character, compared with his son Yuan Gai Suwen, he is a little less iron-blooded.

In history, King Rongliu and Yuangai Suwen were inseparable. King Rongliu wanted to do what Kangxi would do to assassinate Oboi, and kill Yuangaisuwen who was the most threatening to his throne.However, King Rongliu's actions were not secretive, so Yuan Gai Suwen learned of King Rongliu's overall plan and acted first. He invited King Rongliu and his ministers to inspect his army under the pretext of inviting a feast for him.At the banquet, Yuan Gai Suwen killed a hundred ministers of King Rongliu, and then broke into the palace to kill King Rongliu and dismember his body, and did not hold a funeral for King Rongliu.Afterwards, Yuangai Suwen proclaimed himself "Damolizhi", and made Gaozang, nephew of King Rongliu, king and regent.King Gaozang is in vain, and Yuan Gai Suwen monopolizes military power and state affairs.According to historical records, Yuan Gai Suwen "has a handsome appearance, a beautiful beard and beard, and his crown and clothes are all decorated with gold. He wears five knives, and no one dares to look up. He makes the nobles lie down on the ground and use them to raise horses. When they enter and leave Chen Bing, they will be banned and cut for a long time." ".

In the early days of Yuan Gai Suwen's regency, he tried to make friends with the Tang Dynasty. He supported the replacement of Buddhism with Taoism, and in 643 he sent people to Tang to ask for the eight scriptures of Taoism.Of course, Yuan Gai Suwen did not devote himself to developing Taoism. This approach was only to improve relations with Datang, because he was carrying out the plan of annexing Silla and unifying the peninsula, and then gathered the power of the peninsula to invade Datang.

How can Datang be fooled?Li Shimin, who has an extraordinary political vision, knows that a divided peninsula is more in the interests of Datang. When Yuan Gai Suwen launched the battle to annex Silla, Datang officially sent troops.

In 644, Li Shimin sent 500 boats and [-] soldiers from Laizhou across the sea to attack Pyongyang, and land sent [-] troops from the northeast to Liaodong. He personally led the six armies to supervise the battle at the front.On land, the Tang army captured the important town "Liaoyang City" that had withstood several expeditions by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. However, the Tang army did not go straight to Pyongyang. Instead, when they attacked Anshicheng, an important town in the southwest of Liaoyang City, they were captured by Yang Wanchun, the lord of Anshicheng. It was blocked for two months and failed to break through.Considering the coming winter, Taizong hastily ordered the withdrawal of troops.On the way home, there was still a heavy snowstorm, and thousands of people died. The expedition ended in failure.

In 661, the coalition forces of Tang and Silla captured Baekje, an ally in the southwest of Goguryeo, and continued to attack Goguryeo for the next eight years.

In 662, in the Battle of Snake Water, Yuangai Suwen defeated the Tang Dynasty.

In 666, Yuan Gai Su Wen died.The three sons of Yuangai Suwen had a fight.After being framed by his two younger brothers, the eldest son, Yuan boy, defected to the Tang Dynasty and helped Tang attack Goguryeo.

Due to years of famine and civil strife, Goguryeo was finally destroyed by the coalition forces of Tang and Silla in 668.

Yuan Gai Suwen's threat to Datang was far greater than that of his father, Yuan Dazuo. This guy had fought against two outstanding emperors of Datang, and he still won more than he lost.Such a terrifying guy can only be eliminated when he has not yet grown up. Otherwise, the situation in the Northeast will be the same as in history, and it will contain Datang for decades, making it impossible for Datang to deal with the Tubo Kingdom in the southwest.Knowing what kind of person Yuan Gai Suwen is, if he is still given the chance to be in the top position, then Qin Feng will really be ashamed of the title of time traveler.
