In fact, Goguryeo is not a monolithic empire. It is somewhat similar to the Turks. It is a big barbarian lord who becomes the leader of the entire regional ethnic group, and then unites other small tribes to conduct unified operations according to the situation.
But Goguryeo is a bit different from Turkic.
That is, the Turks are almost completely nomadic tribes with no permanent homes. Living by water and grass.
But Goguryeo has the embryonic form of a city-state, but its civilization is too far from the Central Plains.
Take Gao Yuan. He dared to be king, and he belonged to a relatively high-end existence in this area of Goguryeo.
Others, those with more power, dare to be kings, and those with smaller powers will call them the lord of the country. But really looking at its strength may not be as good as a county in the Great Sui.
According to Sui Emperor Yang Jian, if the Goguryeo kingdoms dared to offend the Sui Dynasty, they would be wiped out in one fell swoop.
According to the current situation, at least, this year will not work.
Moreover, the losses of the Eastern Expeditionary Army were extremely heavy.
Based on this, in a short period of time, unless Da Sui can't fight himself, he also wants to destroy the Goguryeo kingdoms, then it is possible.
But Da Sui still had a lot of things to deal with. The most likely thing about Goguryeo's side is to put it aside for the time being.
Qin Meng had seen these things clearly, so he had the idea of destroying Goguryeo's most arrogant Yingyang King Gao Yuan.
Wang Wei agrees very much from the bottom of his heart, but. Gao Yuan has the natural danger of Liaoshui River, especially after the flood, the water of Liaoshui River soared. In a short period of time, only the floating bridge built before can be used for north-south dispatch.
Wouldn't Qin Meng want to pass this pontoon bridge to transport the army there, and then destroy Gao Yuan
However, what Wang Wei knew better was that Qin Meng was not a reckless person. He will take risks, but he will not take risks without principle.
"Qin Shuai, if you have a strategy, you can talk about it and listen to it. No matter how bad it is, you can share a little worry for Qin Shuai." Wang Wei said very politely, Qin Meng used facts to win his respect.
Qin Meng thought for a long while, frowning and said: "Wang Sima, conventional combat is fundamentally difficult to control Gao Yuan. Only soldiers make dangerous moves. Only with extremely special combat methods can we get rid of this warrior."
When Wang Wei heard Qin Meng's intention to tell him, he hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Qin Shuai can be careful."
"Beheaded."
Wang Wei didn't know why, he respectfully wanted to hear Qin Meng's opinion, but only these two words
"Beheaded? Didn't Qin Shuai want to kill Gao Yuan so that the dragons under him would have no leader. Then he would destroy himself without attacking?" Wang Wei thought for a while and tried to ask.
Qin Meng nodded and said: "That's what it means. We did not hesitate to make such a big move here in the South Bank, Gao Yuan would not know it. The more intense our fight here, the less the results, Gao Yuan must think we want to be here. Before the arrival of winter, he will be able to make some combat exploits so that he can go back to the business. In this way, he will definitely relax his guard.
Wang Wei frowned and said: "Qin Shuai, Gao Yuan's servant, even if it is as you expected. Relaxed and slack, wanting to beheaded, there are countless elite soldiers. I'm afraid it will not be easy."
Qin Meng smiled secretly: "Beheading Gao Yuan, not many people, five hundred is enough."
"Five hundred!" Wang Wei's eyes almost fell: "Qin Shuai. How is this... how is this possible? Five hundred people, there are not even as many soldiers garrisoned at the enemy's gate."
Qin Meng said indifferently: "As long as I create a fighter plane, I will use the Sui Ordnance and crush Gao Yuan's subordinates. Five hundred is enough. Wang Sima, you go and urge Pei Wen'an and Yu Gongli and others to attack the enemy city, no matter the cost. How many weapons and sacrifices are needed to create the momentum for this commander to swear to win. As for Gao Yuan, just leave it to this commander."
Wang Wei opened his mouth and wanted to ask Qin Meng again about the specific arrangements, but when he saw that Qin Meng didn't mean to say anything, he gave up and urged Pei Wen'an and the others.
Qin Meng asked Xin Wenli to secretly call in the Feixiao army under his command and select the best from the best. Five hundred people were selected, and the soldiers from Shanshui, Jiangsu and Zhejiang who had been on standby were put into a state of battle.
Under Qin Meng's airtight mobilization, all the materials were prepared. Qin Meng asked all these transferred soldiers to stay near the Chinese Army's tent and supervised during wartime. No one was allowed to move rashly, or even make a sound.
Qin Meng himself sits in a handsome account and handles battle reports from various places at any time.
Although the two armies of Pei Wenan and Yu Gongli were on the offensive very fiercely, they smashed their opponents at all costs. But the adversary also knew that as the weather got colder and colder, the Great Sui Army could not hold on for long.
With this anticipation, Koguryo's resistance was also extremely tenacious.
The two sides just fell into a fierce offensive and defensive battle. The soldiers of the Sui Dynasty suffered countless deaths and injuries, and Goguryeo Xiaobang directly vomited blood.
On this day, Wang Wei returned to the account and saw that Qin Meng still had no intention to act. He couldn't help but said: "Marshal, at present, it has been attacking for 18 consecutive days. It is not the 20-day deadline specified by the marshal. , Only two days away." (End of this chapter)
