Chapter 623: A Powerful and Prosperous Country

Is this a win?

Is this too easy?

When three or four thousand disarmed and trembling in fear, Xiao Haili's troops were surrounded by the snow by the number of children, who were far fewer than theirs, waiting to fall. When Aguda carried Xiao Haili's head and ran happily to Wanyan Yingge and Wanyan Wuyashu to reward his merits.

The leader of the Wanyan tribe of the Tiger Water Wanyan tribe, Wanyan Yingge, his heir Wu Yashu, and Ma Zheng who watched the battle all the way, all had an unreal feeling.

It was too easy to win! The battle ended too quickly. The head-on confrontation lasted for three rounds, and the people in Xiao Haili rushed for a while, and the cavalry who had given birth to a daughter rushed for two. Then about 5,000 soldiers from the Xiao army completely collapsed, threw away their armor, and ran away in horror. Before they could escape back to their camp, the shouts of "Xiao Haili is dead" sounded from the camp that was already in chaos... and then the battlefield was cleaned up.

If we calculate from the time when both sides start to arrange the array, the entire battle time is only a little more than two hours. The two thousand female warriors will defeat the "Khitan Warriors" who are three times more than themselves and will be wiped out.

"Taishi, Wuyashu," Yin Shuke rushed over on a war horse at this time. "Apart from Aguda and Oriyan's troops, they asked about it. A total of sixteen warriors returned to heaven, and twenty-one warriors were injured."

Wu Yashu said, "Father, now the task is completed, and you can report to the Lord of Liao. Let someone cut off the left ear of the thief who was killed and sent to the Lord of Liao to the Lord of Liao together with Xiao Haili's head."

Wanyan Yingge nodded: "Okay! Let the good memory Alihe Ren go and let him talk carefully with the Liao Lord."

...

Less than forty casualties!

Hearing this number, Ma Zheng didn't know what to say. 2,000 people beat 6,000 people and their casualties were wiped out, and his casualties were less than 40... These gangs of savages were invulnerable to swords and guns? How could they fight so well?

It would be great if the Song Dynasty had such soldiers! The soldiers and horses of the guy in Xiao Haili looked similar to those of the Western thieves. If the Song Dynasty could have 2,000 soldiers like the birth of a daughter, would they be afraid that the Western thieves would not be able to be eliminated?

It seems that I have to stay here for more days with my daughter and study hard with others...

"A Guda, are you injured?"

Wanyan Oliyan was shocked when he saw a broken arrow inserted in Aguda's chest.

"Injured?" A Gu Da didn't feel anything at all. He saw Oriyan pointing to his right chest and looked down. "Hey, there's really an arrow! But it doesn't hurt..."

"Maybe it didn't penetrate the armor?" Brother Zhao Zhong, who was standing beside him, also noticed it, "I'll take off your armor and take a look."

It is common for the cavalry to rush forward, and it is common to have a few broken arrows on their bodies. As long as the armor is good enough, it is nothing, and at most it is a bit of skin. At that moment, Brother Zhao and Oliyan started to work together to help Agu untied the armor belt and remove the armor covering the chest and abdomen. A book was also taken down with the armor.

It turned out that the arrow that shot Aguda had drilled into the gap in the armor leaves and was stuck. However, the arrow that drilled through the armor was still less than half an inch long, because Aguda's armor did not have cloth armor, and it was just a leather coat. The arrow that was less than half an inch could still penetrate it and then put some blood on Aguda's blood. However, this arrow was not biased and was pierced on the book "Theory of Heaven" that was stuffed into his arms by Aguda!

"Why is there a volume of sutra?" Wanyan Wuliyan didn't recognize the words, but he had seen the people of Bohai who came to Wanyan's ministry to do business in Buddhist scriptures and believed in Buddhism and carried Buddhist scriptures with them. However, they were not one thread-bound book, but one butterfly-bound book, so Wuliyan did not have the concept of "book".

"This is "Theory of Heavenly Rules", not Buddhist scriptures." Wanyan Aguda carefully took off the book "Theory of Heavenly Rules" and found that the book was not penetrated. "It's really a blessing from the principles of heaven, otherwise he would have to see blood this time."

"Blessed by the truth of heaven?" Oliyan didn't understand what it meant and looked at Aguda ignorantly.

Aguda said: "The law of heaven is the source of all things in the world! Everything in the world is created by the law of heaven, so the law of heaven can bless us to win battles!"

"Really?" Wuliyan was skeptical. Brother Zhao Zhong sent him another book "Theory of Heavenly Rules", "Brother Wuliyan, I would rather believe that there is, than that of not. If you hold it, maybe you can bless you."

"Okay, thank you." Like the rest of the Wanyan tribe, Uriyan believes in shaman wizards. The concept of the supreme ruler of the Changshengtian also appeared in the Eastern shaman system. The theory of the law of heaven corresponds to "Changshengtian", and the theory is more perfect and more difficult to falsify. In addition, the shamanism is not a sect with strict organization and strict precepts. Therefore, Wanyan Aguda, Wanyan Oliyan and others naturally regard the law of heaven and Changshengtian as the same thing...

...

At this moment, on the winding mountain road in the northeast of Goryeo, an army that could not see the boundaries at the beginning and end were rolling forward.

The land of Goryeo is full of mountains facing north and south, and movement in the east and west directions is difficult. In addition, the rare plains in Goryeo are concentrated in the western coastal areas, which is also the ruling center of the Goryeo Dynasty. This time, Goryeo used troops in the northeast, and although the straight line distance from Kaijing is not far, the road is very inconvenient.

However, the Goryeo court was not without any preparation. A road that stretched east from Pyongyang, Xijing, and then turned north, stretched for nearly 500 miles. After nearly two years of conscripting more than 100,000 people and working hard, it was finally completed in the fall of last year. At the same time, eleven military stations were built along the way for transporting materials.

It can be said that the court of Goryeo was quite prepared for the war in the Northern Expedition of Nuzhi.

However, even if there is such a path, even if the government soldiers and the elite troops of the six armies of Goryeo can be considered hard-working, this path is still very difficult to walk.

This road is not like the official road running through the north and south of Goryeo. It is winding forward on the seaside or on the flat ground between two mountains. Instead, it rises and falls on the mountain, and crosses a mountain of more than 200 feet high. On one side is a mountain and on the other side is a cliff! And along the way, there are not even a village, except for eleven military stations, there is no place to rest.

However, the Goryeo army led by Lin Gan was moving forward with high morale on such a road. Everyone was sweating profusely, but their steps did not mean to stop at all.

Because just when Lin Gan led his army to Pyongyang, good news came from Dingzhou. Dingzhou's governor Li Risu took advantage of the opportunity of giving a banquet on behalf of the Goryeo King on New Year's Eve to capture the chiefs of the fourteen female tribes and forced them to be loyal to the Goryeo King. Therefore, the female tribes in the land of Helandian Five Waters came back one after another.

Now the territory of Great Goryeo has crossed the Great Wall, and the entire Changbai Mountain has been drawn in!

The great achievements of opening up the territory seem to be within reach. Who is not in a hurry to arrive at the land of the lazy as soon as possible?

So without Lin Gan's order, his generals kept urging their subordinates to rush their way, and the army was moving very quickly in this difficult mountain road.

Tong Guan was also in this army. He rode a short horse and brought about a dozen military officers selected from the imperial guards. He followed Lin Gan's central army and marched against the spring cold of the Goryeo Kingdom.

He was a military eunuch who knew everything. He had followed Li Xian to train in the Northwest Army for many years and met many elite Western Army soldiers. Moreover, he was from Kaifeng himself and knew what kind of virtue the imperial guards in Kaifeng Prefecture had.

So these days he has been comparing the Goryeo government's government soldiers with the elite troops of the Sixth Army and the army of the Song Dynasty. When he was opening the capital, Tong Guan once felt that the Goryeo government soldiers who ate kimchi and corn every day were similar to those of beggars, and had no combat power at all. Only the elite troops of the Sixth Army could fight.

However, after these days of marching, Tong Guan's view of the Goryeo army changed again. In fact, their beggars's soldiers were not too bad... Two meals of kimchi and corn rice a day could support them to walk dozens of miles, and they also carried a lot of supplies and weapons! The imperial guards of the Song Dynasty were not good. If there were only kimchi and corn rice, they would have been mutiny!

Moreover, even if it is delicious and delicious, the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty would not be able to walk dozens of miles of mountain road a day... If you want to walk this way, don’t you complain?

Just for marching, the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty, even the elite troops of the Western Army, would probably lose to the beggar soldiers of the Goryeo people.

In addition, Tong Guan also found that there was a point in the Goryeo army far better than the Song army. It was that they really had a commander! Unlike the Western Army of the Song Dynasty, they always had a bunch of strategies, recruiting, Xuanfu, and general managers, and supervisors. Who has the final say? Only God knows? It was also when Zhang Dun was the only prime minister. His cousin Zhang Feng was the commander in fact because Zhang Dun was too fierce. Everyone was afraid that the Western Army would have unified command. This is the big reason why the Battle of Hengshan could be a great victory!

How can hundreds of thousands of troops fight on the front line without unified command?

The Koreans were just using their literature to control their military affairs. They were directly the minister of the civil servants and the minister of Pingzhang, who led the troops to the expedition! They also gave the power to judge the troops and horses and camps, and gave them axes and halberds, so they could do things at a cheap price. It seemed that there was no eunuch who sent a military supervisor...

Not to mention whether the old man Lin Gan could fight, but at least he organized the shogunate and personally rode a horse and led a 100,000 army (although Wang Yong recruited more than 100,000 people, now he could go to the battle to fight 100,000), and advanced in a mighty way. Looking at this, he always had to go to the front line to command, and he should be able to command.
