Fu Yuwu originally wanted to give his daughter to Wang Junlin as his concubine. When he heard what Wang Junlin said, he thought about it secretly and gave up the idea. Instead, he said: "Dami said before
For the supply of grain, meat, vegetables and other living materials needed by the garrison on the island and Baengnyeong Island, Duke An of Qin can rest assured that I can finalize this matter with the imperial court on behalf of the king of Baekje and guarantee the supply at the lowest price in the Chinese market. Duke An of Qin only needs
Just arrange for ships to transport it at our ports."
Wang Junlin responded with a face of joy: "Thank you very much Duke Wu. This has solved a big problem for our troops stationed on the two islands."
Fu Yuwu felt Wang Junlin's sincere gratitude, and felt relieved. He thought that he might be able to achieve his goal without giving his daughter to the other party as a concubine, so he nodded slightly and said, "Qin An is here to see me.
Baekje was originally a vassal state of the Sui Dynasty. The Celestial Army came here to help us deal with the Goguryeo wolves. It was really not worth mentioning to supply some grain, meat and vegetables. But if Goguryeo sends troops to attack our Baekje country, please ask Qin An Gong to make the two
The island's garrison responded from the sea to contain one or two..."
“Don’t worry, Mr. Wu Guo. I followed the order of my Majesty and led the troops to seize the two islands of Goguryeo in order to prevent Goguryeo from annexing Baekje. What’s more, your country is already under the protection of our court. What Mr. Wu Guo just said is actually true.
This is my duty..." Wang Junlin said.
What Wang Junlin said was not an exaggeration at all. The Sui Dynasty was originally the suzerainty of the Baekje Kingdom. Logically speaking, the leader of the Baekje Kingdom was also a minister of the Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty.
Of course, compared with Baekje sending envoys to pay homage to the Sui Emperor at least once a year, and then the emperor issuing a letter of credence to Baekje in the name of the suzerainty, the army brought by Wang Junlin swept Goguryeo into the water in just one or two days.
The powerful navy and sturdy warships destroyed by half the force of the army are what Baekje likes more and what they fear.
Similarly, this is also the reason why Wang Junlin received such courtesy from Baekje and Silla, and they rushed to give people and benefits.
…
…
Fu Yuwu returned to Baekje Kingdom with satisfaction, and Wang Junlin also achieved his goal, but the plan to turn Baengnyeong and Daimi Islands into two treasure islands has just begun.
Zhang Tiangang moved very quickly. As expected, among the captured Goguryeo people there were pirates temporarily recruited by Yuan Taizuo. After some torture, he easily got the information he wanted.
"In that case, let the two little guys Xin'er and Xuanba prepare! Send an order to Liu Yidong and Luo Chunlai, and ask them to send a thousand people each to the two young men." Wang Junlin guessed right, Yuan Taizuo
Among the 15,000 Goguryeo navy sent to Daimi and Baeryeong Islands, three pirate groups sent a total of nearly 5,000 people.
…
…
The county seat of Annan County in Goguryeo is called Annanfu. It is surrounded by hills and is about a hundred miles away from the seaside.
This majestic city located in the south of Goguryeo is the largest city in the south of Goguryeo.
It is midsummer, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. However, due to the topography and geographical location, Annan County has a lot of rain in summer. At this time, Annan County Prefecture Zhongyuan Taizu looked at the continuous drizzle outside the window, and his face was extremely ugly.
As the prime minister of Goguryeo, Yuan Taizu has been in Annan County from Xijing, the capital of Goguryeo, for a month.
Although he had overestimated Wang Junlin as much as possible and had prepared so well in advance that he used 15,000 people to fight 4,000 people in their home field of Goguryeo, but he was defeated so completely in the end.
Never thought of it.
Now that I think about my plan to kill Wang Junlin at sea, or even capture him alive, making his life worse than death, it is really ridiculous!
Now not only have they failed to capture Daami Island and Baengnyeong Island, but they have also lost 10,000 naval troops. As for the other 5,000 pirates who were deceived by themselves, they will die, but that is a full 10,000 naval troops.
!
Even though he was the prime minister with overwhelming power, he was not the master of Goguryeo after all. There was also the emperor of Goguryeo who was behind closed doors in the country. Facing Gao Jianwu, who was also known as the king of the country during the Sui Dynasty, although because of Gao Jianwu at this time
The leader of the Wudang Kingdom did not last long. He was restrained by various means and the power of his family, and was even suppressed to death. However, as time went by, the extraordinary qualities of this young ruler gradually became apparent, and there were already some people in the court.
The people secretly took refuge with the young king.
Yuan Taizuo knew very well that Gao Jianwu had been hoping that he would make a mistake, because every time he made a mistake, in order to appease the mistake, he had to give in to Gao Jianwu and return part of his power to Gao Jianwu.
This time the Annan Navy was almost completely wiped out. In order to prevent Wang Junlin from counterattacking with the navy, he had to transfer the Linjun Navy to Annan County. In this way, most of the Annan Navy was lost in the battle and the news that 3,000 people were captured
Hard to block.
After the news spread, the whole country of Goguryeo was shocked. Some people advocated the use of troops, some advocated for peace talks, and some advocated sending people to the Sui Dynasty to find the emperor to cry out.
Yuan Taizuo vaguely sensed that these turbulent debates were the result of the promotion behind the scenes by their young leader Gao Jianwu. The purpose was to make this matter public in the eyes of both the government and the public, greatly reducing his prestige, and then forcing him to do so.
Hand over some power.
But if he can send a navy to take revenge, seize Daomi Island and Bailing Island, annihilate the navy led by Wang Junlin, and then secretly let his forces guide and promote it, he can completely turn the domestic public opinion around.
Not only will it not affect his prestige at home and in the court, but it will also allow him to once again suppress Gao Jianwu's royal power by taking advantage of his great victory. In recent years, he has achieved victory by sending troops to Baekje and Silla.
He became the powerful prime minister of Goguryeo.
Therefore, the key now is how to defeat Wang Junlin.
Yuan Taizuo has recently led a group of confidants to discuss with the dispatched naval generals for half a month, because now there are only 10,000 naval commanders that can be mobilized. Judging from the previous failed experience, they want to win this battle
, it would require at least 20,000 navy troops.
At the moment, their only solution is to find a way to transport their country's army and navy there together, and to lure Wang Junlin and his men to take the initiative to attack Annan County.
But Wang Junlin was not an idiot. How could he lead 4,000 people to abandon the two acquired islands and invade Goguryeo's mainland?
The attitudes of the several powerful pirates he had controlled before suddenly became ambiguous. With the navy led by Wang Junlin showing strong combat effectiveness, the number of men under his command ranged from one to two thousand.
There are tens of thousands of pirate organizations, but no one has taken the initiative to send troops to help them.
Yuan Taizuo rubbed his brows with a headache, and could not think of any possible solution for a while.
The speed with which Wang Junlin and his four thousand men rose up in the waters of their Korean Peninsula was so astounding. In just a few days, they quickly established a foothold.
