Chapter 731 What is this place
Wang Ping'an and others were overjoyed. This person could understand Goguryeo. Wang Ping'an quickly said, "Tell him quickly, we are Tang Jun... No, we are... good people, we are going to help Baekje. We have to do business with Baekje people and give us the way. As long as we can go to Siqi City, I will give him 100 taels of gold, so that he will not have to worry about food and clothing for his whole life, and leave a wealth for his children and grandchildren!"
The translator translated the words, but the man still shook his head and said something. The translator turned his head in disappointment and said, "He said he was a Goguryeo, not a Baekjean, so he was not willing to show the way, but he didn't know where Siqian City was!"
As soon as he said this, everyone present was disappointed. He finally met someone who was willing to cooperate, but he didn't know where Siqi City was!
Xue Renyi said angrily: "I don't know where Siqi City is, so why are he still left for? Are you wasting food?" With a wave of his hand, he hacked the Goguryeo to death and threw the body into the sea!
The captured Baekje fishermen screamed together. They had known that they would not have any good results if they had fallen into the hands of the Tang army. But now when they saw the murder with their own eyes, everyone was afraid and screamed, hiding from Xue Renyi!
Xue Renyi caught another person and asked, "Which country are you from?"
This man said something, but the language seemed to be similar to the one just now. The translator said: "He is also a native of Goguryeo, and he doesn't know where Siqian City is!"
Xue Renyi killed him with a knife and threw him into the sea. He looked at the Baekje fishermen again and said strangely: "What's wrong? We are not going to Baekje? Why do we meet all the Goguryeo people? Are we in the waters of Goguryeo now?"
He caught another person and asked, "Which country is from?"
The man was so scared that his whole body was trembling. A stinking smell came. He was so scared that he was so scared that he urinated and said a few words in a stuttering manner! The translation was disappointed: "Same as the first two!"
Xue Renyi finished it with another knife and threw the body into the sea!
This time, the general translator asked, "Who are you from Baekje?" He asked in Goguryeo.
As they nodded at the same time, they saw the scene just now. Whoever said that he was a Goguryeo would have to be chopped and thrown into the sea? Who would dare to say that he was a Goguryeo!
Xue Renyi said angrily: "Everyone can understand Goguryeo, why didn't he respond just now?"
The civilians of Baekje can only understand a very small number of Goguryeo's official languages. In addition, the translations have a foreign accent, so they are not wanting to answer, but they are afraid that they will get their lives wrong. But it is useless to be afraid now, and they have already started to kill people. They have to follow the translations. Anyway, whatever the translations say, they nodded.
The general translator asked again: "Who of you would like to show the way?"
The Baekje fishermen nodded again, and no one dared to shake their heads!
Tongzhi laughed and looked at Wang Ping'an. Wang Ping'an had no expression on his face, while Su Dingfang laughed loudly, raised his thumbs to Xue Renyi, and said with a smile: "Good thing, you cut three times and you will all be stunned!"
Xue Renyi smiled and said, "It's just a bunch of bad bones. If you don't give them some colors, they would think we are vegetarians!"
Wang Ping'an said: "Ask them, where should I log in to Siqi City?"
The general translator translated the words. The Baekje fishermen paused for a moment, some lowered their heads and kept saying a word, while most of them slowly turned their heads to the west, but then they turned back. There was only one middle-aged man who pointed to the east and said a few words loudly. He was the only one who was different, with a flattering expression on his face!
The translation said: "This man said that Siqi City is on the east side. Let us go east. He is willing to show the way!"
Wang Ping'an said with a sneer and said, "It may not be!"
Su Dingfang also said: "Those people looked west, and turned their heads just after a glance. Only this guy said he was walking east. This guy seemed to be very loyal to Baekje!"
Xue Renyi smiled and said, "He wanted to deliberately deceive us and lead us in the wrong direction!"
The Tang generals on the deck nodded together, and even the general interpreter nodded in agreement. This flattering guy must have deliberately pointed out the wrong way. He was the most loyal to Baekje, wanted to pretend to surrender, and then led the Tang army to circle around and could not find Siqian City.
In their eyes, no one in the world would betray their country. Even if they surrender under the sword, they might not tell the truth. Looking at the expressions of the Baekje fishermen, they knew that they hated the Tang army invasion, so they didn't speak. As for pause first, they looked west, which means that they didn't react for a while, so they looked towards Siqi City, and then immediately turned their heads back.
Xue Renyi raised the bloody sword again and said, "Okay, how dare you deceive our Celestial Army, I will chop you up!" He waved the knife and cut off the man's arm, lifted it up and threw it into the sea amid the screams of this man, letting him die slowly!
The general interpretation had a wide eyebrows and eyes raised, and shouted loudly. The Baekje fishermen were all so scared that they cried, but no one spoke.
Tongzhi accompanied her smile and said to Wang Ping'an: "Prince, the official warned them that if anyone dares to deceive us again, that person just now is a role model!"
Wang Ping'an waved his hand and said, "The whole army goes west and moves forward at full speed!"
The sound of trumpets sounded, and Wang Ping'an's warship first drove westward, and the entire fleet also turned around and drove west together!
After confirming going west, everything is easy to say. More than 400 warships headed west at full speed. But after two days, they still couldn't find the place to land!
At dawn on the third day, heavy fog broke out on the sea and the south wind began to blow. The winds were stormy and the waves were high, and the fleet could no longer sail normally. Most of the soldiers in Qingzhou had not left the sea, and most of them were seasick, and the soldiers did not dare to go to the deck, and they were all in the cabin, and panic gradually spread.
Xue Renyi found Wang Ping'an and was so angry that he saw Wang Ping'an. He said, "Prince, you can't leave like this anymore. You have to go to the dock no matter what. Otherwise, we will all sink to the bottom of the sea without waiting for Siqi City!"
Wang Ping'an endured his disgust and asked, "Where are those Baekje guides? Have they said Li, how far is it? Well, then go to the dock!" He was already out of breath when he spoke, and he was also scared!
Xue Renyi didn't care about anything else. Even if he was discovered by the Baekje soldiers, he would do whatever he wanted. He ran to the deck and personally sent orders with a horn to order the fleet to sail north and to dock no matter what!
The Tang army came to raid. In order to avoid being discovered by the Baekje people, they were quite far from the coastline, but they knew the general direction. As long as they head north, they would definitely be able to dock!
In the heavy fog, the fleet completely lost its formation and headed north like a swarm!
The sun rises eastward, the wind on the sea becomes weaker, and the fog gradually dissipates!
Wang Ping'an felt that the seasickness symptoms were getting better. He climbed onto the deck and looked north. He saw a black line in the distance, and the chirping of seabirds came from the sea. They had arrived in Baekje and could log in without long!
After sailing on the sea for so many days, I finally saw the land. The soldiers of Qingzhou rushed to the deck, shouted loudly, and released the joy in their hearts! It was helpless to suffer from wind and waves at the sea, but once they landed, the soldiers and generals were not afraid of anything!
Even if the Baekje people discovered it, it would be possible to attack it. If it really doesn't work, just attack it directly and fight northward. Silla is the north. It is a vassal state loyal to the Tang Dynasty. As long as you arrive in Silla, everything will be safe. The soldiers and generals really never want to take a boat again, which is too uncomfortable!
Su Dingfang stood at the bow of the boat, and suddenly he shouted: "Look, that's a big river, a big river, it must be Xiongjin River!"
The soldiers and generals of Qingzhou rushed to the side of the ship together and looked north. Sure enough, they saw a big river flowing into the sea. If Siqi City was behind the river, it proved that they had arrived at their destination accurately and found the beach they had landed!
Wang Ping'an put on a pergola in his hand, looked at it for a while, and laughed: "It's great. It's indeed the location of Baekje's capital. Although you can't see the city wall, it must be near this river! Brothers, go forward at full speed and catch Baekje off guard!"
The Qingzhou soldiers shouted in unison, raised all the sails, drove towards the river, intending to follow the river and enter Baekje, find Siqian City, and attack directly!
It looked not far away, but it was actually quite far away. The fleet sailed into the river until noon. I saw the common people in Baekje running to the shore to watch the fun. They didn't know that this was the enemy!
Four hundred warships, if you set a distance, you can only see the head of the team, but you can’t see the tail of the team.
Wang Ping'an sent an order to let the soldiers hang out the Goguryeo flag that had been prepared long ago, pretend to be Goguryeo soldiers, and paralyze the Baekje soldiers. They should be able to escape. At least that's what Wang Ping'an and others think!
The people of Baekje who were watching the fun on the shore suddenly raised the flag of Goguryeo when they saw this huge fleet, but they did not cheer as they imagined. They welcomed the arrival of friendly warships, but instead began to retreat and stayed away from the shore!
Although it was too far away and I couldn't see the expressions of the Baekje people on the shore, judging from the speed of the Baekje people's retreat, it should have recognized the Qingzhou soldiers as the enemy, otherwise there would be no reason to retreat!
Su Dingfang said in surprise: "What's going on? How did they recognize us?"
Wang Ping'an said, "It may not be that we recognize us. Maybe Goguryeo and Baekje are not as harmonious as we imagined. As soon as we hung the flag of Goguryeo, these Baekje people thought we were here to attack them!"
Xue Renyi shouted: "But we can't hang the Baekje flag. Do they don't know whether Baekje has this army? Once we hang the Baekje flag, they will immediately know that we are pretending!"
Su Dingfang patted the side of the ship and shouted: "I said, this raid was too hasty. In order not to let the Baekje people prepare, we were not ready. If we had known this, we should have prepared more Japanese flags. Aren't they a clan country?"
Wang Ping'an said angrily: "At this moment, you are still talking nonsense, what's the use? Anyway, you have been discovered, so why not fuck him! Dock and log in!"
Neither Su Dingfang nor Xue Renyi understood what it means to be a sensational person, but it was probably not a good thing. They shouted together: "Fuck him a sensational person!"
With the sound of horns, the Tang army's fleet approached the shore of the river and planned to land forcibly. Although it was still unclear where Siqi City was, as long as it could land, no soldier would be willing to stay on the ship!
At this time, all the people in Baekje on the shore could run away, but from a distance, there were many young and strong people coming. These young and strong people were wearing similar clothes, and everyone was holding weapons in their hands, looking like people like yamen runners!
There were only a few dozen people coming, and the Qingzhou soldiers didn't care at all, and they didn't shoot arrows to suppress them. When the warship was closer to the shore, many water-like Qingzhou soldiers actually jumped into the water, ran to the shore with the water, waved their weapons, and shouted loudly!
The young and strong people who were rushing to see clearly this time that the enemy soldiers who were disembarking were actually Tang troops, and they were well-equipped troops! These young and strong people in Baekje stopped and stared at the Qingzhou soldiers blankly!
The warships brought by Wang Ping'an were not all big sea boats. In a hurry, it was impossible to get hundreds of big sea boats. A considerable number of them were river boats. Although they looked huge, they were not very drafty. It was very dangerous to use this kind of river boat to cross the sea. If you encounter a big storm, you can blow the boat over and destroy it. Fortunately, Wang Ping'an was very lucky. He only encountered big storm this morning, and the storm came and went quickly, and did not cause any losses to the Tang army!
This kind of warship docking is much faster than a sea ship. In a short while, dozens of warships approached the shore, and hundreds of Qingzhou soldiers began to land, with extremely fast speeds and overwhelming posture!
The young and strong men in Baekje holding weapons were stunned and frightened by the Qingzhou soldiers. Someone shouted and turned around and ran away, while the rest of the young and strong men also turned around and ran away!
The Qingzhou soldiers were not resisted at all. The vanguard successfully landed ashore, lined up in a square formation according to the establishment, waiting for the large troops of the Baekje soldiers to arrive. The warships docked, and the soldiers and generals behind them pulled their horses off the ship!
For a moment, people shouted and neighed on the shore of this river, and their soldiers and guns were dazzling!
Wang Ping'an got off the boat, called the translator, and asked, "Where are those Baekje guides, let them lead the way. Our whereabouts have been exposed. We must attack immediately and attack Siqian City. Didn't that say that the city is on the beach? Why can't we see it?"
Looking around, within a few miles of sight, not to mention a country like Siqi City, there is not even a medium-sized town!
The general e-song looked at the scenery around and hesitated: "This...it seems not to be the Xiongjin River, right? Where is this?"
At this moment, dust flew in the distance, and a team of cavalry rushed over, with a number of more than a hundred. Most of these cavalry were wearing armor and looked like regular soldiers, but there were not many people. It was estimated that they came to block the attack immediately after getting the news. The large army had not yet had time to assemble!
When the general translator saw the rushing cavalry, he suddenly shouted: "Prince, this is wrong. Those soldiers are not Baekje soldiers. Why do they look like Goguryeo soldiers! Oh, they are really Goguryeo cavalry! Here... this is not Baekje, it is Goguryeo. We have landed in the wrong land!"
