Chapter six hundred and thirty seventh: Yuangai Suwen's panic
War is about bloodshed, and if you have killed someone, you must be executed.
Then I'm afraid all of these five thousand Goguryeo soldiers will be executed.
Do you really want to do this?
Li Min smiled slightly, and then said: "This matter will be discussed at the end. If someone comes, take him aside first."
Hearing what Li Min said, the Goguryeo soldier secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, I admired my own wit and bravery in my heart.
The Japanese people who came out to identify him felt huge disappointment.
However, following the Japanese, many people still stood up.
Identify the murderers who killed their families.
As for the women who had been insulted, Li Min also asked them to come forward and identify the culprits.
It's a pity for these women of the Japanese country. There are many faces of people, and they can't remember them all.
But even so, more than half of the Goguryeo soldiers were identified.
Li Min treated the identified Goguryeo soldiers differently.
Those who have insulted women or killed old people and children are in a separate group.
The others just had blood on their hands and were in another team.
After dividing the teams, Li Min pointed at the teams that had harmed women and harmed the elderly and children and issued an order:
"Execute all of these people, leaving no one behind!"
Upon hearing Li Min's order, the Goguryeo soldiers were immediately frightened to death.
The Goguryeo soldier who dared to tell Li Min just now couldn't help shouting: "General, this is not fair! This is not fair! How can there be no death in war? How can you execute me just because my hands are stained with blood?
?”
He still remembered that when he said these words just now, the great general of the Tang Dynasty was stunned for a moment.
Judging from the look on his face, he seems to agree with it.
Why do you suddenly regret it now?
I heard Li Min sneer and say: "War will bleed and people will die! But, who are the old people and children?"
"Insulting women, harming the old and young, is outraged by both humans and gods, and is not tolerated by heaven and earth!"
"However, I admit that what you said still makes sense!"
Hearing this, the Goguryeo soldier couldn't help showing a look of ecstasy on his face.
Then I heard Li Min continue to say: "There is no war without death, and there is no war without bloodshed. In that case, why can't it be you who dies?"
"Everyone obeys the order! Execute them all, leaving no one behind!"
As Li Min's order was issued, the Tang army, which had already taken their positions, began to pull the trigger, aim at the group of Goguryeo soldiers, and shoot wildly.
The Goguryeo soldiers fell down one by one like straw.
One by one, their sinful lives ended.
As these Goguryeo soldiers fell, bursts of howling and loud crying came from the team of Japanese people next to them.
Their great revenge was finally avenged.
It turns out that among the Goguryeo troops, there were only a few people left who had not done any evil.
At this time, the face showed the sadness of the rabbit dying and the fox pitiful.
As for those teams whose hands were stained with blood, but had never killed the elderly or children, or defiled women, they looked like they were surviving the disaster.
Fortunately, they didn't have the heart to do it at first, but they didn't expect to escape the disaster.
After this incident, some Goguryeo soldiers discovered it.
It turned out that this Tang general was not a kind person.
He was ruthless and ruthless, but he showed no mercy at all.
There were more than 2,000 comrades who had just been executed by him.
He didn't even frown at all when he said he was going to kill.
Fortunately, he is not a murderer, but has his own bottom line.
At least, he doesn't kill ordinary people or indiscriminately kill innocent people.
From now on, if you follow this Tang general, as long as you obey his orders, your life can probably be saved.
Thinking of this, the surviving Goguryeo soldiers became obedient and cautious.
He became very obedient.
As for the people of the Japanese country, let alone them.
Compared with those brutal Goguryeo soldiers, this Tang general is simply a Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves the suffering!
Following this Tang general is at least better than being robbed by Goguryeo, right?
For the General of the Tang Dynasty, they naturally felt at home and were grateful.
Because without this Tang general, they would have died tragically at the hands of Goguryeo soldiers.
After another day of repairs, Li Min led the army and continued to set off.
After this, there were no more Goguryeo soldiers.
All the people in the city that were served were left empty.
Those cruel Goguryeo soldiers did not even bury the bodies after killing people.
Let them die in the streets.
As soon as you enter the city, you can smell a pungent rotten smell.
If we leave it like this, it is very likely that it will bring about a plague.
Next, Li Min asked some Goguryeo soldiers to wear masks and bury all the corpses in the city.
This is all the evil done by their people. Naturally, they have to do things like cleaning the battlefield themselves.
After cleaning up the corpses, Li Min asked the Goguryeo soldiers to be disinfected and isolated separately.
It takes a period of observation to find out that they are indeed not infected with the plague before they can be released.
After that, several cities in a row were in the same situation.
Within the city, the situation of corpses on the streets is getting more and more serious.
The rotten situation is getting worse and worse.
Not to mention the Tang army, even the surviving Goguryeo soldiers couldn't stand this situation.
It turns out that they used to be so evil.
It's all an empty city anyway, so there's no need to send people to defend it.
And what surprised Li Min was strange and funny.
They are getting closer and closer to the royal city of Japan, but judging from the situation, it seems that Yeon Gaesumun's people have not found any trace of them until now.
This can no longer be described carelessly.
The enemy is right under your nose, but you don't even know that Yeon Gaesumun has this little ability?
In fact, Li Min had wronged Yuan Gaisuwen.
Yeon Gae So-moon can be regarded as a tycoon of his generation, and his ability is still very strong.
But he has no choice but to leave the country now, which is too difficult.
As he dispatched several large armies, he continued to recruit young and strong men from the Japanese country to join the army.
Now, the number of newly recruited Japanese soldiers he has reached has reached 50,000.
Of course, along with this number, more elderly people and children were killed by them.
There were an equal number or even more women who were also snatched away by them.
Including his own 30,000 soldiers and horses, Yeon Gaesumun now has 80,000 soldiers and horses at hand.
But for the newly recruited Japanese soldiers, Yeon Gaesomun wanted them to have combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
Because if it cannot form a fighting force, the army of 50,000 people actually does not make much difference to 50,000 pigs.
But Yeon Gaesumun was very afraid of this.
Because, his soldiers killed their families and took away their women.
It can be said that there is a blood feud between these soldiers and them.
Once they form a fighting force, what should they do if there is a backlash?
Moreover, assembling the weapons and armor of these 50,000 people is also quite a troublesome task.
There were weapons and armor in the Japanese armaments warehouse, but they were all in a state of decay.
When using it for training, be careful to prevent it from breaking.
As for using it for fighting, it is purely because I think it will last longer.
Therefore, during this period of time, Yeon Gaesumun was busy making weapons and armor.
Then these Japanese soldiers were trained.
And training is a very troublesome thing.
The most rigorous training is necessary to maximize their combat effectiveness in a short period of time.
Because the Tang army may arrive at any time, there is not much time left for them.
However, they must be prevented from rebounding.
Because these Japanese soldiers have resentment towards them in their hearts. If they are suppressed too hard, the rebound will be very terrifying.
Moreover, the number of these Japanese soldiers has reached 50,000.
And his own direct soldiers only number 30,000.
It's definitely not easy for 30,000 people to look at 50,000 people.
Therefore, Yuengai Suwen simply gave up the plan of sending scouts to detect the whereabouts of the Tang army.
Tang Jun will come sooner or later.
All they can do is to strengthen themselves as much as possible.
They don't need to defeat the Tang army, they just need to resist the Tang army's attack.
Yuengai Suwen still didn't believe that these 200,000 Tang troops could stay here forever.
Just the transportation of grain and grass is an astronomical sum, right?
Yeon Gaesumun only deployed manpower within fifty miles of the surrounding area.
As long as the Tang army came within fifty miles of the royal city, he would be able to get the news.
This time buffer is enough for him to respond to emergencies.
Because during this period, they have been preparing to defend the city.
…
"Your Majesty, the Tang Army is here. The Tang Army is here. They have already appeared fifty miles away."
The person who reported the news was a soldier of Yeon Gae So-moon.
When reporting the news, the soldier had a look of fear on his face.
The soldiers saw that their king's face was frighteningly calm, without the slightest disturbance.
You can't help but make the soldiers fall into admiration.
Sure enough, the king is the king!
At a time like this, he could still remain so calm.
In fact, why wasn’t Yeon Gaesowon nervous?
However, he has experienced too many storms and turbulence in his life.
The city has long been trained to keep its expression unchanged even when Mount Tai collapses from the top. No matter how nervous it is, it is impossible for outsiders to see it.
Yeon Gaesumun couldn't help but ask: "Is the detection clear? How many people from the Tang army came?"
The soldier couldn't help but replied: "The Tang army is overwhelming, at least 800,000 to 900,000 people, right?"
After hearing the news, Yuengai Suwen couldn't help but sneer, and then said: "The Tang army only came with a total of 200,000 troops. It is impossible for him to leave people in other cities."
"On top of the sea, at least 50,000 people will be deployed to set up a dragnet. If we remove these people, it will be good to have 100,000 people. Where are the 800,000 or 900,000 people?"
After hearing what his king said, the soldier had a smeared face and felt a little embarrassed.
Yeon Gaesumun actually knew in his heart that the Tang army was too powerful, and there was probably no one he would not be afraid of if they fell from above.
From the bottom of their hearts, they don't think they can defeat the Tang army.
This mentality is also reflected in their actions.
Judging from the reactions of these scouts, they did not conduct serious investigation at all.
Otherwise, how could this happen?
However, this time, I am afraid that the Tang army will really press in.
Tang Jun, this is a battle to determine the outcome.
There were about 100,000 Tang troops, and on the surface, their army looked as many as 80,000.
The strength gap between the two sides is actually not that big, it can even be said to be evenly matched.
But the problem is that the 50,000 new troops have only been trained for less than half a month and have not yet fully developed their combat effectiveness.
Moreover, we must prevent them from backlash.
Therefore, the gap between the two sides is actually extremely wide.
If we simply defend the city, there is a possibility of being able to defeat it.
However, their army has one biggest problem, confidence.
Now everyone is pessimistic and disappointed, thinking that they will never be a match for the Tang army.
If this emotion is allowed to spread, it will be impossible for them to defend the royal city.
He must reverse this situation before this happens.
Therefore, when the Tang army had just arrived and their footing was not yet stable, it was crucial for them to win a battle first.
In fact, they only need a small victory, even a draw, to give his troops great confidence.
As long as they can feel that the Tang army is not invincible, and they can strengthen their faith and defend, it will definitely not be a problem.
For this reason, Yuengai Suwen sent a large number of scouts and began to continuously detect the Tang army's military deployment.
At this time, Li Min was also constantly dispatching troops and generals.
After getting ready, they were about to surround the royal city.
At the same time, Li Min also released an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and was observing every move of Yuan Goguryeo.
Soon, Li Min noticed something was wrong.
Goguryeo's regular army should have been only about 30,000 people.
Normally, there is no way they could be a match for the 100,000 Tang troops.
For Yeon Gaesumun, the best way for him is to hide in the royal city and defend.
Relying on the city wall, you can also mobilize the people in the city.
The probability of him being able to defend successfully is quite high in principle.
At least, this is the best choice he can make at the moment.
However, Li Min discovered that Yuengai Suwen had sent a large number of scouts and was constantly dispatching troops.
This situation made Li Min frown.
If there is an abnormality, there must be a demon!
Although the strength of the Tang army was much stronger than that of Goguryeo.
But war, a place of life and death, cannot be ignored.
In order to be responsible for the lives of all soldiers in the Tang Army, we must be extremely cautious.
Li Min watched Yeon Gaesumun carefully and observed the movements of their army.
In the end, Li Min couldn't help but show a thoughtful look on his face.
Li Min probably figured out what Yeon Gae So-moon wanted to do?
He probably wants to win once!
All it takes is a small victory.
As long as there is a small victory, the morale of his army will greatly increase.
I have to say that this view is extremely correct.
Li Min's face suddenly showed an inexplicable smile.
If an acquaintance saw it, they would probably shudder.
Whenever Li Min smiles like this, it means someone is going to suffer.
Well, doesn’t Yeon Gae So-moon want a victory?
Then give him a victory.
Thinking of this, Li Min quickly mobilized his troops and generals.
Without leaving a trace, a flaw was leaked to Yeon Gaesumun.
This place is a large army led by Wang Fangyi, a lone army of only 3,000 people.
In fact, even though it is a lone army, it is not far away from the large army, only a few miles away.
If the large army wants to support them, they will arrive soon.
This flaw was not eye-catching to Tang Jun, let alone fatal.
But for Yeon Gaesumun, it has a fatal temptation.
Because they urgently need to win a small-scale battle.
Moreover, Li Min fell into the trap in order to seduce Yuon Gaesumun.
The flaw he exposed is not obvious, and if you don't pay attention, it will even be difficult to detect.
Because Yeon Gae So-moon is also an old fox.
If any obvious flaw is revealed, Yeon Gaesumun will definitely discover it.
And this flaw, I believe, is just right for Yeon Gaesumun.
…
Sure enough, Yeon Gaesumun received news from the scouts.
Finally, on the Tang Army's troop deployment map, the flaw of the Tang Army was quickly found.
Moreover, this flaw is not obvious.
Yuengai Suwen thought about it again and again, and finally determined that this was not a bait deliberately thrown by the Tang army.
In this battle, as long as you are well prepared, you can achieve a great victory.
Therefore, Yeon Gaesumun quickly dispatched troops to this area.
This time, his actions were extremely subtle, ensuring victory this time.
Soon, the three armies he dispatched were all in place.
Among them, there was a Japanese army of three thousand people.
This Japanese army is only responsible for supporting the enemy on the flanks.
Those responsible for the frontal attack were direct descendants of his Goguryeo soldiers.
This is not to say that Yeon Gaesumun does not feel sorry for his soldiers.
But which of Goguryeo's soldiers were really useless.
Let them take charge of the flanks. In fact, Yeon Gaesumun just wanted them to be on the real battlefield and have their hands stained with blood.
Only after being baptized on the battlefield can a new army grow rapidly.
Otherwise, they will never grow.
It is said that soldiers are valuable and quick, and Yeon Gaesomun's preparation speed was very fast.
There are three armies, each with 3,000 men.
He only used 9,000 men to deal with the Tang army's 3,000 men in a sneak attack.
From Yeon Gaesumun's point of view, it is really difficult to find a reason not to win.
And after they win, they can retreat quickly.
At the back, Yeon Gae Su-moon had a team ready to take over.
This victory is absolutely certain and foolproof.
At this time, Yeon Gaesumun was on a high ground behind the battlefield, overlooking the battlefield.
The team arranged by Yeon Gae So-moon to take charge of the frontal assault was preparing to launch.
Suddenly, the Japanese army responsible for the ambush on the flank took the lead.
Seeing this scene, Yeon Gaesumun couldn't help but frown.
How did this happen?
Why are you so unorganized and undisciplined?
If you disobey orders on the battlefield, you must be severely punished after you come back.
However, the time to launch is now anyway.
It's not too bad.
It's just that Tang Jun was alerted a little early, so the problem is not too big.
However, the next scene almost made Yeon Gaesumun’s nose crooked with anger.
Because this Japanese army actually started shouting and hoisting white flags several hundred meters away from the Tang army's garrison.
Because of the distance, Yeon Gaesomun could not hear the content of the New Army's propaganda.
But they threw away their weapons and raised the white flag. This was a desperate rhythm of surrender!
Unexpectedly, it hasn’t been opened yet!
The friendly troops responsible for the flanks began to surrender first.
Of course, this new army cannot all be Japanese.
The generals inside, even the small bosses, are all warriors of Goguryeo.
However, these warriors had all been captured, pushed to the ground, and tied up with ropes.
What Yeon Gae Suwen didn't know was that Li Min was actually paying close attention to every move at the scene at this time.
Seeing the actions of the new Japanese army, Li Min also felt dumbfounded.
Yeon Gaesomun ordered his soldiers to kill their children and elders and take away their women.
Now we want them to fight for themselves. How is this possible?
Sure enough, as soon as they found the opportunity, they immediately turned against it.
In fact, Li Min really doesn't want them to rebel now.
Because this trap was set by Li Min.
Seeing that the fish was about to take the bait, the new Japanese army's commotion would only make those Goguryeo vanguard troops alert.
But it doesn't matter, since these people are difficult to escape anyway.
At this time, Goguryeo's vanguard army was also itching with hatred.
These damn Japanese not only surrendered before the battle, but also alerted the Tang army one step ahead.
If the Tang army was prepared, their surprise attack would not be as effective.
However, after hesitating for a moment, Goguryeo's vanguard army still made the decision to attack.
Not to be missed.
Although the suddenness of the surprise attack was lost, it was still a battle of six thousand men against three thousand men.
With twice as many troops, we can definitely win.
The vanguard general of the vanguard army this time was Yeon Gae Suwen's confidant general.
He knew very well what the victory of this small-scale battle meant to them.
This battle must be fought and won.
Soon, he led the army and rushed into the military camp.
However, as soon as he entered the military camp, the general suddenly took a breath of cold air.
In the military camp, all the people were fucking human.
Where are there only 3,000 people here?
Looking at their size, there are at least seven to eight thousand people.
Moreover, his armor was neatly dressed and his bow and arrows were strung. It was obvious that he had been preparing for a long time.
Where is Tang Jun's flaw here?
It was clearly a trap set by the Tang army!
"Withdraw! Withdraw quickly!"
Seeing this scene, the leader could not help but be frightened to death, and quickly issued an order to retreat.
