Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

After entering the Silla Peninsula, the style of play is different from that in Liaodong, because there is a natural moat of the Yalu River, and Goguryeo is too confident in the front line of Liaodong, and they do not understand the strength of Datang.

Therefore, Datang was able to capture the entire Liaodong region quickly. After winning it, Li Shiji spent a lot of time operating the entire Liaodong region because it was related to the logistical issues of Datang's subsequent stability.

But it is different after entering the peninsula. It is located in the hinterland of Goguryeo, which is the important capital and core area of ​​Goguryeo. He is not allowed to spend time trying to persuade him to surrender here.

Therefore, after Li Shiji rested for half a day across the river, Datang’s total of 15 troops was divided into three groups, of which [-] troops quickly advanced along the coastline on the west side of the peninsula to Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, while the remaining [-] infantry were in Zhangliang. Under the leadership of Xue Wanjun, it also divided into two routes, crossing the mountainous area in the center of the peninsula, and extending to the hinterland of the eastern mountainous area of ​​Koguryo.

As the main force of the attack, Li Shiji's troops began to rush at a frightening speed. All the cities they encountered, because these cities were not large in size, sent out [-] troops to besiege the city and shout!If you don't surrender, then use the city-breaking mine directly to blow up the city wall!

If you still don't surrender when the city wall is blown down, then attack directly!

Under such circumstances, it turns out that there are very few generals like Hudar in Goguryeo, and none of these cities are the elite of Goguryeo.

Under the terrifying bombardment of the city-breaking thunder, the soldiers in these cities were already terrified. Most of the cities chose to surrender directly.

From the Yalu River to Pyongyang at a distance of about 30 miles, Li Shiji marched at an average distance of [-] miles per day. In just six days, he broke through more than [-] Koguryo county towns along the way, and an army of [-] troops arrived at the city of Pyongyang!

Yuan Gai Suwen never thought that Tang's army would come in such a storm. On the second day after Li Shiji crossed the river, Yuan Gai Suwen received the news that the Black Bone City had been broken.

No matter how unbelievable he is, it's the truth.

At that time, he could only quickly mobilize troops from the surrounding cities, because according to his calculation, it would take at least four days for the Great Tang army to cross the river!

According to his calculation in three days, he still has enough time to mobilize enough troops to defend Pyongyang City. At that time, counting the auxiliary soldiers, he can gather 20 troops in Pyongyang, and then wait until the Tang Dynasty army arrives, and start fighting directly outside the city.

He knew very well that he could not defend the city.

Because once the city is defended, it means that the Tang army has completed the siege. Pyongyang is the most populous city in Goguryeo. Although it is not as large as Chang'an City with a population of one million, Pyongyang will probably have a population of close to 40 and 20 including the army. Soldiers, 20 people.

And how long can Pyongyang's food last?Support for one month at most.

But after they were surrounded, it meant that Datang was not in a hurry, because it also represented the last capital of Goguryeo, and when other places in Goguryeo were destroyed, there would be no other enemies.

Datang can completely surround without fighting, calmly gather troops, and directly trap them to death!

Therefore, his best choice is to fight directly in the field, take advantage of the arrival of the Tang army, wait for work at leisure, and take the initiative to attack.This is the safest way.

But what Yuan Gai Suwen didn't expect was that the Tang army crossed the Yalu River in just one day including the rest time, and there were [-] cavalry among them!

In the subsequent attack, Li Shiji took the cavalry as the forerunner, and when he attacked a city, he sent the cavalry around the city for at least ten miles to eliminate all scouts, caravans, and floating people who might leak the news.

In addition, many messengers dispatched by Yuan Gai Suwen had just arrived at the relevant cities, and before they could evacuate, the Tang army had already arrived.

Therefore, when the Tang army appeared in Pyongyang within six days like heavenly soldiers and generals, the army gathered by Yuan Gai Suwen was no more than [-]!

The troops he had relied on hadn't waited to gather in Pyongyang, but were directly wiped out and captured by the Datang army that rushed from three directions.

And the Datang army that rushed to Pyongyang was even more orderly, which made the Goguryeo army barracks outside the city that had never expected the arrival of the Tang army to be in chaos for a long time.

Under such circumstances, Yuan Gai Suwen had no choice but to withdraw into Pyongyang City. The field battle opportunities he had envisioned were no longer available!

When the Tang army with a well-groomed appearance under the city of Pyongyang arrived, Yuan Gai Suwen, who was standing on the city wall, had an extremely ugly expression on his face.

And Gao Jianwu and all the nobles of Goguryeo were even more frightened and trembling. Things...how did they come to this point?

But now, no matter what they say, it seems that they can't change the fate of Goguryeo.

Everyone knows that Goguryeo is about to perish!

Not only Li Shiji, Li Daozong's record in this direction is also making rapid progress. Cheng Yaojin, Li Daliang, Niu Jinda, Xue Rengui and other generals who have been holding back for more than a year have been authorized to bring [-] screaming Datang soldiers , even the speed of attack is wilder than Li Shiji!

The advantage brought by the Pocheng Lei allowed them to arrive outside Pyongyang only one day later on the premise that they were sixty miles away from Li Shiji's place!

At this point, the two armies of the North and South of the Tang Dynasty met outside the city of Goguryeo and Pyongyang!As for Zhang Liang and Xue Wanjun's troops who are still fighting in the mountains and the east, they must not be able to keep up with this battle.

But it's enough, because the Tang army gathered outside Pyongyang has once again reached 15!

After the siege, Li Shiji immediately sent the news via telegram back to Chang'an City, thousands of miles away!

"Hahaha! Okay! Okay! Okay!" Li Shimin, who received the news in Chang'an, laughed wildly three times at the court meeting. He had been waiting for this moment for too long, and he didn't expect this day to come so soon.

Moreover, Datang's army completed this national war far faster than Li Shimin imagined!Only two months away from the selected start time!In two months, I wiped out Goguryeo, which my cheap father-in-law mobilized millions of soldiers and failed to win three times!

Goguryeo, which has been 670 years ago, was destroyed!

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty." The whole court was filled with congratulatory voices, and everyone was overjoyed, because this meant that there were no enemies in the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty in the other three directions except the west side!

This also means that the hinterland of Datang can start large-scale construction according to the plan of the three provinces. By then, Datang will be even stronger!

Li Ke is also very excited. He has made great changes to Datang, but until today, Datang has truly occupied half of the world!

Although he doesn't know how much impact it will have, this is the most important step for Datang to spread culture to the world!
