Chapter 1221: Shen Tang raises the military tent and increases the number of troops again
Kae Kyung is located almost in the middle of the entire Koryo Kingdom, so if you want to attack the city, you must pass through most of the Koryo Kingdom.
At that time, in front of them was the capital of Koryo and the 50,000-strong Central Army, and behind them were the local armies led by the governors of Ping'an Province, Hwanghae Province, and Hamgyong Province!
Blocking the front and rear, hundreds of miles away from the border, is impossible no matter how you look at it.
Shen Tang smiled softly, "Although Goryeo has many soldiers, they all defend one side, and most of them are infantry. Although we have fewer soldiers, they are all cavalry, and our mobility is unmatched.
The men under our command are all equipped with two horses or even three horses, and can carry ten days of rations with them. Moreover, in the territory of Goryeo, do we still need to be saints?"
"It's natural to massacre people, but isn't it natural to rob some supplies and food?"
"First, we defeated the soldiers and horses in front of us and the Japanese samurai, and then directly sent our troops south. Before their local army could react, our soldiers and horses could reach the gate of Kaijing City.
At that time, it will be entirely up to us to decide how to fight this battle."
"We are not here to destroy the country this time. It is unrealistic to use thousands of soldiers and horses to defeat the hundreds of thousands of Goryeo troops. However, it is enough to use these thousands of soldiers and horses to scare the country of Goryeo and scare the enemy."
"When we arrive at the foot of Kaijing City and let them know our existence, we can then attack some surrounding areas. When their army comes, we can quietly evacuate and return directly to the territory.
However, because of our mobility, as long as we hide it mysteriously enough, they will not find our traces."
"In their hearts, we will always have a military force right under their noses, but they can't catch it! At that time, we can write to the court to send a mission to negotiate with Goryeo!"
"If necessary, we can gather troops and horses to fight against Goryeo for one or two games again. We are not afraid that they will not agree to our request!"
"well!"
Hearing Shen Tang's plan, Heshi Liezhining almost put his hands on his hands and laughed. To put it bluntly, Shen Tang was just taking advantage of the Korean people's hearts and did not really want to fight to the death with them! Even so, Heshi Liezhining was convinced. , Goryeo will almost certainly fall into Shen Tang’s plan.
"Hahaha, since your kid is here, I don't have to worry about the wounded anymore. The rest of the battle will be under your command, and all the soldiers and horses will be under your command!"
Shen Tang smiled helplessly, "General, I promised my wife that I would go north to celebrate the New Year."
"It's coming in time, it's coming in time!"
Heshi Liezhining chuckled, "It's only September now, how long can the country of Koryo last in your hands?
When the war is over, I will personally lead an army to escort you to Shangjing, and I will definitely let you have the most lively New Year in Shangjing!"
He shook his head helplessly, but now that the matter had come to this, Shen Tang could not shirk it.
Secondly, Shen Tang has been away from Dali for several months. Although the leisure time in these few months has been pleasant, he always feels a bit lazy. Now that he can take this opportunity to fight against Goryeo, he can also practice his skills.
Afterwards, Heshi Liezhining directly summoned the generals, and then handed over the power to Shen Tang.
The rest of the generals did not object to this, and were even somewhat rejoicing! With Shen Tang as their commander, they were obviously confident.
After handing over to Heshi Liezhining, Shen Tang was not polite and went straight to the office to pay homage to the general!
"Greetings to the general, the last general is Wu Yingjie. He used to be a commander of thousands under the general, but now he still has more than 700 troops under his command!"
"Greetings to the general, the last general is Tang Kuo Haiya... He still has 600 troops under his command!"
"...The last general Pu Chasuo..."
"...The final disciple Shan Limeng..."
Coordinating the troops and horses originally under He Shi Liezhining's command, excluding the seriously injured, there were still 2,700 people. Plus the Beiwei army who followed Shen Tang, there were only 3,500 people under Shen Tang's command in total. Just a hundred people.
However, not to mention the combat prowess of the Beiwei Army, the actual combat prowess of even these defeated troops should not be underestimated.
They were elites under your command with inferior skills. If they had not fallen into a trap before, they would not have been defeated so miserably. Now that they have regained their confidence and fighting spirit, they can obviously be used.
After recognizing the generals present, Shen Tang ordered someone to bring over the local geological survey map.
"Where are the Goryeo soldiers and horses exactly now, and how many are there!"
Shen Tang asked.
Tu Shanlimeng stood up and said, "General, we had a scout the day before yesterday and found out that they were camping on a barren mountain about thirty miles away on the other side of the river! When we fought with them before, there were about one or two thousand warriors in black, but , The situation was chaotic at that time, and we couldn’t count their specific number. We just felt that there were black warriors everywhere, and there were their hidden people everywhere.”
"As for Goryeo's soldiers and horses, there are about two to three thousand, mainly infantry, with very few cavalry! Of course, we don't know if they have other soldiers and horses lurking in secret."
Speaking of this, several captains felt a little ashamed. The previous battle was really confusing. They didn't show their combat power at all. They were defeated directly. How could they find out the enemy's specific situation?
Shen Tang nodded, looked at the geological survey map for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Wu Yingjie, were you a pioneer in the past?"
"Exactly!"
"Okay, I'll give you two days and two hundred soldiers and horses. I want you to find out if there are still a large number of soldiers and horses ambushing within fifty miles of the Koryo country's soldiers and horses. As for the area around their station, you don't need to pay attention. You can Do it?"
"General, don't worry, I will take your orders!"
As long as you don't explore the enemy's garrison and just patrol the surrounding area, it's not difficult! Moreover, it seems that the troops of both sides are now in the Kingdom of Jin. They only need to find a few local guides, and the investigation is easy.
"The remaining three of you, each commanding 500 troops, will take turns crossing the river! However, there is no need to fight the Korean troops. You only need to provoke them around their base! If they leave the camp, you can lead your troops back directly! In short, , within these two or three days, I don’t want Goryeo’s troops to rest, but you can do it.”
"The last general takes command!"
The remaining three generals surrendered their orders, which was just a provocation. They were the best at it.
Goryeo are all infantry, and as long as they are willing, those people have no chance of fighting them.
"Okay, everyone, please go and reorganize your troops! I have promised the commander that this time we will attack the capital. If anyone misses the opportunity, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
