Tang Dynasty good brother

Chapter 354 Qin Hao who Created the Time
In fact, just as Niu Jinda guessed, Li Ji's end was indeed much smoother than expected.

Goguryeo was involved in Qin Hao's trade war. In the past six months, the people have been living in dire straits, and the price of goods can be said to be three times a day, so that the poor in the treasury can't afford the military expenses for the war.

As for means such as increasing taxes, it is even more useless. The common people can't live, and raising taxes will make them rebel.

Even not raising taxes is enough. It is rumored that the spies sent by the Yamen are not for nothing. It is the basic method to spread rumors and stir up people's hearts. Pulling out an insurgent army of tens of thousands of people made the Goguryeo side burnt out.

Under such circumstances, can you point out how sufficient the supply of the Great Wall defense line is?Not starving to death is not bad, but as for the military pay and head money, it is even more difficult to get a dime.

Even the frontline general Gao Yanshou stumbled out of his tricks. In order to relieve the supply pressure and disrupt the Tang army's offensive rhythm, he even tried to rob the camp on the first day Li Daozong arrived.

Ordinarily there is nothing wrong with this, the defender must also attack appropriately, and cannot completely step on the opponent's attacker, but you don't even look at what kind of troops Li Daozong is, he is the Fan Army and the Khitan Army of all cavalry!
When I heard that Gao Yanshou robbed the camp, Li Daozong was stunned. He couldn't believe his eyes. How dare the cavalry of Goguryeo come to fight with him?

From a certain point of view, this is indeed quite unexpected.

After the initial panic, Li Daozong quickly stabilized the situation, personally led the charge, and killed all the people who went out of the city to rob the camp. Gao Yanshou himself was shot with arrows and almost died outside the city.

In this battle, Li Daozong's troops beheaded more than 1 people and captured more than 6000 people, which severely damaged the morale of Goguryeo. .

Li Ji is also a ruthless person. Originally, he was a pioneer who was responsible for building bridges and paving roads, filling ditches, and cutting down trees to build siege equipment. However, seeing Li Daozong's victorious record and Goguryeo's turmoil, he directly attacked for the first time.

Li Shimin is still on the road, so Li Ji will attack directly.

Let’s talk about Qin Hao’s spy war again. It was because of a mistake that Goguryeo actually used Datang’s newspapers as a source of information. At the beginning, everyone thought that the Tang army would attack last month, so Silly waiting for more than a month.

Later, Comrade Ma Zhou finally surpassed the blue and succeeded in passing false information to Goguryeo, making them think that the Tang army would attack next month.

At the same time, real and fake rebel armies in Goguryeo were surging, especially those who were simply led by spies from the rumored yamen, and they killed wherever they went like locusts crossing the border.

Whether it is the general coupons or the spies of the Fengyan Yamen, they are mainly concentrated in the north of the Yalu River, because there are a large number of Han people living in this area, so the Goguryeo defenders are waiting for the days of the Tang Dynasty. The rear has long been a mess.

These defenders are all locals. They are spending time on the Great Wall, but their hometown is being ravaged by thieves. When they heard that the Tang army would not come over in a month, they became anxious. Gao Yanshou couldn't hold back, so he had to let Gao Huizhen go first. He led 3 people to the east to suppress the bandits.

In the end, it was also a coincidence that Gao Huizhen had just walked less than ten days on the front foot, and Li Daozong arrived on the back foot. There were not many others, but after being killed by Li Daozong, there were only more than 3 people left, and he hadn't waited for him to recover. , Li Ji arrived.

He, Li Ji, was one of the four Great Army Gods of the Tang Dynasty, and the soldiers in his hands were also the elite of the elite. He might not even be inferior to Li Jing in terms of personal ability. How could he not see the opportunity?
As a result, the morale was low, supplies were insufficient, and the exhausted Goguryeo defenders faced the [-] Bingzhou Army and the [-] Fan Army of the Great Army God.

…………

When Li Shimin and the others set off from Guanzhong and traveled day and night, they finally arrived in Youzhou. Just as they were about to take a rest, they heard the news that Li Ji and Li Daozong had broken the Great Wall and trapped the enemy in the new city. They felt bad for a while.

Is Goguryeo so weak?My people were wiped out by the vanguard before they arrived?
Of course, besides being overjoyed, it was a bit embarrassing. It was so hard for Yujia to go on a personal expedition, and he didn't even have time to go to the battlefield. The first tough battle was over. Why is he here for a tour?

If I had known earlier, what would be the sign of kissing!He felt that if he temporarily entrusted Li Ji to rule the three armies, he could turn around and go back.

After writing a commendation letter to Li Ji and Li Daozong on the spot, Li Shimin couldn't stay any longer, what the hell are you doing, if you don't hurry up and the new city will be destroyed, then he will really be a tourist.

Li Shimin couldn't help but find out that he had already become the emperor, and he had to rush to grab credit with his subordinates. What's this special thing called?

It was only after seeing the detailed battle report that I knew the reason for this. I have to say that Li Ji's victory was really lucky. The generals who accompanied the army all lamented Li Ji's shit luck.

But Li Shimin closed his eyes and thought about it, is this really luck?Maybe it was true, but the person who really created such luck was not Li Ji, but Qin Hao who was on the battlefield for the first time.

Think about it, the false information of Goguryeo was taught by Qin Hao to Ma Zhou, and it was all handled by the gossip yamen people created by him; As a result of the big trade war, even the coupons were created by him; and Qin Hao cut off the shipping of Goguryeo, which made the supply of the Great Wall line that was almost collapsed even worse. If not for this, Gao Yanshou would not have fainted and left the city Field battle with Li Daozong.

This battle was fought by Li Ji, but almost all the conditions were arranged by Qin Hao.

If Li Ji is a genius who utilizes the timing, then Qin Hao is the one who creates the timing.

Li Shimin smiled wryly. He once said that Qin Zhenheng could reach one hundred thousand troops. Now it seems that he may have said too little.

At this time, Li Ji, who was surrounded by heavy troops in Xincheng, was facing the same happy troubles as Niu Jinda.

Once the Great Wall is broken, you will enter the territory of Goguryeo. If it was originally, there would be nothing to grab, but now. . . .

They found out that this place is using general coupons like waste paper!As soon as the Khitan Khan heard that this thing can be exchanged for a jar of wine in Tang Dynasty, and five tickets can be exchanged for a sheep. Pioneer quickly wiped out all the hundred and ten miles around the new city, Li Ji's Lieutenant General Guo Xiaoke was so angry that he almost beat him up.

What is different from Niu Jinda is that what they are besieging is the royal city, and what they are besieging is the military city. There is money in the royal city, but there are no eggs in the military city. Even under such special circumstances, there may not be any robbery. Two small towns earn more.

As a result, the generals below all volunteered for the mopping up, and they were not very enthusiastic about the siege. When the deserted area within a hundred miles was swept away, someone below suggested to bypass the new city and go directly to the hinterland of Goguryeo. Everyone Still agree.

Isn't this nonsense.
