Chapter 1134: Fen Yuwei fights again in Anshi

Chapter 1134 Fen Yuwei fights Anshi again

After the military meeting in the imperial tent, Qin Lang returned to his tent.

As the prime minister accompanying the army, Qin Lang's camp was in the imperial camp, not far from the emperor's imperial tent. The tent was quite large, with felt blankets inside, a stove, a kettle, etc., and even a couch.

The tent is very big, and the stove inside is very warm.

Put an iron kettle made in Foshan, Guangzhou, and then put Yixing Zisha tea set on it. On another stove, sit an iron pot and stew sheep and scorpions.

"Saburo enjoys it!"

Huaihua County King Qin Guozhong led his brothers and nephews in.

"Sheer pays homage to the Taiwei!"

Li Sheer, the king of Huaide County, paid a cross-handed visit to Qin Lang, but he seemed to be quite a stranger. This is Qin Guozhong's blood brother, and both are the sons of Luo Khan from the Turkic region. Back then, the two brothers lived in Hetao and Mobei. Later, Yu She worshiped Qin Qiong as his adoptive father and asked to be attached to the Tang Dynasty, while Sheer left the Western Regions, and later joined the Tang Dynasty through his brothers, and was given the country's surname, the county king, and the princess Shang.

The two brothers are the sons of Luo Khan from the Turks, but now they have abandoned Ashina, the golden wolf king's surname. One is named Qin and the other is Li. The best mix in that family.

However, compared to Qin Guozhong's close relationship with Qin Lang, Sheer is relatively unfamiliar with the Qin family, and he has been guarding the Western Regions before.

"Sit down, be casual."

Qin Lang and Qin Guozhong are righteous brothers, so he also called She Er a brother, but She Er dared not even say it.

"Then I'll call you Uncle Prince?" Qin Lang said with a smile.

Sheer quickly waved his hands, the Sheer brothers both admired the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, and Qin Lang was the daughter of the emperor, so from this point of view, the two are Qin Lang's wife and uncle, and if they worship Qin Qiong from Qin Guozhong On the side of righteous father, everyone should be called righteous brother.

But Sheer said that there is still a difference between superiority and inferiority. Although his title is higher than Qin Lang, but Qin Lang is a prime minister or a Taiwei, so Qin Lang is naturally more respected.

"Sanlang, don't pay attention to him. This guy is too rigid. We are a family. Now we are in the army, but we are too embarrassed to walk around. It's too rude. Today, I brought him here to eat and drink." Qin Guozhong said. Always thick-skinned.

This guy hasn't seen him for a few years, but he seems to have gained weight again. Now he is as fat as a mountain. But judging by his appearance, he looks very good. I have to say that this member of the Prairie Golden Wolf family is born with a great physique.

He is at least five or six hundred catties, but he is actually proficient in horseback riding and archery. This reminds him of the sumo wrestlers in the later generations of the foot basin. It's clumsy, but in fact he can run and jump, not only does he not need a special person to help wipe his butt, he can even do backflips.

Qin Guozhong is such a flexible fat man.

It is said that this guy's greatest hobbies are eating, drinking and womanizing. He has to eat a lamb every day, and has a daughter every night.

Thinking of the scene of a delicate young lady being crushed by a fat man weighing hundreds of catties, Qin Lang couldn't help but feel emotional.

But what I have to say is that after Qin Guozhong recognized Qin Qiong as his adoptive father, his relationship with the Qin family was indeed good. Even though Qin Qiong had died of illness, Qin Guozhong always recognized Qin Lang, his adoptive brother, as the head of the Qin family.

Qin Guozhong was supported by the emperor as the Great Khan of the Eastern Turks a few years ago, but this guy was also shrewd. The emperor asked him to lead the Turkic tribes back to Mobei and build the Khan Court again. But this guy deliberately dawdled on the border of the Yinshan Mountain in Monan.

I've been dawdling there, anyway, I won't go in.

Qin Lang knew that this guy looked rough on the outside, but he was actually very shrewd. The emperor asked him to go to Mobei to become a sweater. It is not a good thing for Xue Yantuo, the overlord of the North, to really leave Datang.

He is well aware of his weight, and he also knows that the East Turks of today are not comparable to those of tomorrow, so he is very sensible and does not have those unreasonable ambitions.

After dawdling in Monan for many years, he also managed to let Datang understand his loyalty, so now that Datang has officially abolished East Turkic, and also removed his Khan number, this guy is not only not at all unhappy, but abnormal happy.

Without East Turkic, he has completely integrated into Datang, and he is no longer an outsider.

East Turkic Khan, who has no name, is better than the county king, general, governor, and son-in-law captain of the Tang Dynasty.

The Qin family in Huaihuafang, Chang'an, is also powerful now. Even if the family of Li Sheer, the king of Huaide County whose surname is already surnamed Li, is not counted, only Qin Guozhong's family is now thriving, with dozens of brothers and nephews. All the officials and nobles are in the body.

Although Qin Guozhong has no political ambitions, he is a good hand in business and trade. Huaihuafang Huaihua County Wang's family is the richest among the barbarian nobles in the Tang Dynasty.

"Let me make another kelp soup." Seeing so many people coming at once, Qin Lang added a few more dishes.

Kelp stewed bones, another Chinese cabbage stewed vermicelli, fish head stewed tofu, chicken stewed mushrooms...

"I know that Sanlang's food is the best in the whole camp." Qin Guozhong smiled and said, a big fat man who weighs several hundred catties helped wash and chop vegetables but his movements were nimble.

"Did Sanlang think that Quan Gai Su Wen would really bring 150,000 reinforcements to fight?" The big stick was easily broken in Qin Guozhong's hands.

"Although I know that Liang Wanchun, the city lord of Anshi, and Quangai Suwen are political enemies, Quangai Suwen has no choice now. The three important towns of Gaimu, Liaodong, and Jian'an have been lost. Anshi is the only one on the Liaodong Great Wall defense line. If an important city is not defended, the entire defense line will collapse, lips will die and teeth will be cold, and the entire Liaodong of the Goguryeo people will fall. After all, Liaodong is the Yuan family's stronghold, how can he just sit back and watch, so he must come to help." Qin Lang analyzed.

Putting the big bones into the pot, Qin Guozhong smiled at Qin Lang, "The battle is imminent, can Sanlang arrange a chance for me and Sheer to play? Look at this Eastern Expedition, you and Niu Jinda, Cheng Yaojin and the others Not to mention making meritorious deeds, even Li Simo, Li Heli, Xue Wanbei, and Ma Wenju all showed their faces ruthlessly. Qibi Heli was given the national surname to increase the general, and Li Simo became a saint when he was injured. We savages are very envious of sucking blood by ourselves, and it’s hard to catch up with the Eastern Expedition, so we can’t come here in vain, right?”

Sheer also looked forward to it.

"Brother, what are your plans?"

"We also know that our abilities are limited, and we dare not compare with you, Saburo, and we are unable to stand alone, but it is always possible to lead an army to charge into battle, right?"

"Isn't it good to sit in the middle army and watch the enemy march?" Qin Lang asked with a smile.

"After all, we are naturalized Hu chiefs, but we dare not compare with Saburo. We are in a high position, sit in a noble position and have a family all day long. We have to show some merits."

"Okay." Qin Lang agreed with a smile, and then ended the topic. After that, they fiddled with the delicacies, and before long, the tent was full of aromas.

The big meal was not ready yet, but Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda and others came here after smelling the fragrance.

These guys came here not only for dinner, but also to hear Qin Lang's thoughts on the upcoming war, and even wanted Qin Lang to help them speak before the emperor and seek a chance to fight.

Everyone clearly knew that Qin Lang had a very important voice with the emperor.

Just as he was talking and laughing, the emperor also came with his eldest grandson Wuji.

All the ministers rushed to greet him.

"You don't have to stick to the etiquette, I also came here to smell the fragrance."

The mutton scorpion just came out of the pot, Qin Lang first served a bowl for the emperor, Li Shimin grabbed it and ate it, very satisfied, "That's the taste, it's a pleasure to eat such delicious food in the army."

Everyone is standing or sitting, and eating together.

While eating and chatting, it was natural to talk about war.

"In my opinion, although Quangai Suwen gathered 150,000 troops to help, but there are only three strategies available. Lead the troops forward, build the city of Lian'an as a fortress, take the high mountains as a danger, eat the millet in the city, and move forward." The troops plunder our cattle and horses, hoping that our army will not be able to fight quickly, otherwise the weather will be cold and our army will be trapped, this is the best strategy."

"The middle strategy is to attract the army to help, and then respond to the soldiers and horses in Anshi City, abandon the city to break through, and save the soldiers and horses."

"If you don't use your intelligence, come to fight with me. This is the worst strategy. Qing Cao observes it, and he will definitely use the worst strategy."

Qin Lang saw that the emperor had gnawed away a bowl of sheep and scorpions while talking, and immediately filled another bowl.

Some people also asked why the Goguryeo people did not use the best policy and deliberately delayed the confrontation?

Qin Lang replied for the emperor, "Goguryeo lost the cities of Gaimu, Jian'an, and Liaodong. In the Liaodong line, all the weapons, food and grass stored in it were lost. Now the army of 150,000 has come from the cold winter and lives in the wilderness. On the contrary, there is not enough food and grass. After acquiring the cities of Jian'an in eastern Liaodong, even though a large army gathered at the city of Anshi, there was sufficient food and grass, so the Goguryeo reinforcements needed a quick battle, and if it was delayed, they would run out of food and grass, and they would be defeated without a fight."

Li Shimin also thinks this way. The food and grass supplies that were fought in the war, now the Tang army is dominated by Yike, and they have the initiative. When Goguryeo comes to help, it loses the support and food of those big cities, and turns into a guest teacher. The food and grass carried with the army will not last long. It is even more unrealistic to replenish in the rear this season.

The army of 150,000 can only maintain military supplies unless it retreats to the defense line of the Yalu River and relies on the grain and grass stored in the fortress there.

"To destroy Anshi, first attack the reinforcements, annihilate the reinforcements, and then destroy Anshi."

Li Shimin stretched out his chopsticks to pick up bean sprouts and ate them. The bean sprouts sent by the army were fried with vinegar. They were sour and crunchy, which was a rare delicacy in this winter.

"Report!"

The voice of reporting came from outside the account.

However, there was another good news. Earlier, Qin Lang sent Niu Jianhu, the son of Niu Jinda, to lead more than 20,000 troops to attack Jili and Shicheng. The coast took the lead and entered the city.

Immediately afterwards, the general manager, Gu Shengan, led an army to attack Jili City at night, and took another city.

Second cities of Goguryeo were captured in two battles, more than 40,000 people were captured, hundreds of thousands of grain and grass were captured, more than 3,000 enemies were wiped out, and more than 5,000 troops were captured.

After Niu Jianhu captured the second city, he sent people to Beisha to recruit merchants, transported away the captives, people, and property, and left some troops to defend the city, and then led the fleet to continue eastward along the coast.

They marched all the way to the mouth of the Yalu River, and the Goguryeo army marched five thousand at Dahang City to attack the Tang ships at night. They were ambushed and defeated by Niu Jianhu, who had been prepared for a long time, and then took advantage of the situation to march into Dahang City. , Niu Jianhu took the city easily.

After taking down Dahang City at the mouth of the Yalu River, Niu Jianhu simply led his fleet up the river, and then attacked Bozhuo City upstream.

Niu Jianhu sent people to report the victory again, and announced that he was going to advance along the Wugu River, a tributary, to attack Wugu City.

A partial division of more than 20,000 people traveled eastward along the coast, but it was as if they had entered the land of no one, and it was unstoppable.

Old cow in the tent felt that his face was bright when he heard it.

Emperor Li Shimin was also excited and loudly praised, and immediately decreed to bestow Feng Niu Jianhu as Marquis of Pyongyang.

On behalf of his son, Xie En, Lao Niu said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead an army to reinforce Gouzi. If you take down the black bones, you can encircle and block all the land in Liaodong west of the Yalu River. If the situation is good, you can send troops to attack Pyongyang again! Empty, pull out the capital of the king, and capture the king!"

When the generals heard this, let your father and two take up all the good things, so that's okay.

Qin Guozhong, Li Simo and others asked for a fight.

Although Li Shimin was very happy, he did not forget the primary and secondary. The key now is the battle of Anshi City, and Black Bone City is just a partial army, so we can't distinguish between primary and secondary.

Besides, the weather is cold, and Black Bone City is also an important town in Liaodong. Although the main force is now heading west, it must be prevented in case the attack fails.

Once the river and sea are frozen, Niu Jianhu's troops may fall into a tight siege and are in danger of being wiped out.

"Niu Jinda, Cheng Mingzhen, and Wang Wendu lead an army of 20,000 from the sea to the mouth of the Yalu River. First, strengthen the defense of Dahang City and Bozhuo City. If Black Bone City has an opportunity, then pull it out. If there is no chance, do not attack by force, and retreat to Dahang City first. , Park Zhuocheng, and wait for next year."

20,000 people dispatched more ships, brought more food and weapons, and took advantage of the opportunity of the Yalu River defense line to occupy the two cities of Daxing and Bozhuo, as a stronghold for attacking Pyongyang next year.

It can also be used as an interception to block the Liaodong soldiers and horses of Goguryeo.

It would be best to capture Black Bone City, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have a chance.

Li Shimin was in a good mood, and even asked Qin Lang to pour him a glass of wine.

"Come on, I wish the flag a successful start, do it!"

"Congratulations!" All the ministers raised their glasses together.

······

The north wind howled.

The camp was full of restlessness and excitement. In the big camp, Niu Jinda's leaders Wang Wendu and Cheng Mingzhen would select 20,000 people to leave the camp.

All the officers and men heard that the bulls were excited and envious when they heard that the bulls saw the tigers entering the flock like tigers in the east, attacking cities and plundering land, unstoppable.

Facing the incoming 150,000 Gao Mingli troops, none of the soldiers of the Tang Army were afraid. Although the sky in Liaodong was cold, everyone's hearts were very hot.

The soldiers were wrapped in winter jackets, and they were all hurrying to sharpen their knives.

Qin Lang drank some wine, cleaned up the tent, and snorted until dawn.

At dawn, with the sound of the drum, Qin Lang rushed to the imperial tent.

Li Shimin made pre-war deployment.

The edict led Li Sheer, the king of Guide County and the general of Zuowei, to lead 1,000 Turkic cavalry to lure Goguryeo reinforcements, and then Cheng Yaojin led 50,000 troops to meet the enemy in Liushan Xiling to lure the enemy to attack.

Qin Lang led an army of 100,000, lying behind Beishan, and after the enemy fought, he rushed out from the side.

Emperor personally led the imperial army and fell on the mountain.

This is basically the way Qin Lang used to ambush Anshi's reinforcements in Jian'an earlier. Li Shimin thought this arrangement was very good, so he simply used it to ambush Yuan Gai Suwen's reinforcements.

"Mr. Zhao Guo stayed in the big camp, and set up a surrender curtain on the side of this imperial tent. At noon tomorrow, the surrendered captives will be accepted here!"

The emperor was extremely confident and arrogant.

All the generals took orders one after another and promised loudly.

Qin Lang declined, not wanting to lead the army, but the emperor still let him lead the largest main force, "This battle is the most critical, and the Taiwei will do his part, how can he be humble!"
