"Governor, the food stored here is enough for 20,000 troops to use for three months."

Su Dawei was a little surprised when the results of the food statistics came out.

“Not as much as I imagined.”

"Not less."

An Wensheng comforted him: "It is beyond expectations to be able to capture Maishaohu so smoothly and obtain this batch of food and grass, but not burned by the Goguryeo people in a fire, and it can solve the urgent problem."

"you're right."

Su Dawei nodded: "The city has been controlled, and I guess the navy's ship is about to arrive."

"It's already here."

“Transfer food immediately.”

Maizhaohu was later Incheon City, which was directed to the outer sea along the Han River.

Incheon Port is the second largest port and the third largest city in South Korea in later generations, and is very close to the capital Seoul.

If you walk on the sea, you will only have eighteen nautical miles.

At this time, several Tang army ships were docked from the port.

Its shape is as tall as a building, and they are all giant sea ships rarely seen on the peninsula.

Taking advantage of the night and wind speed, no one noticed along the road after two or three days.

However, most of the Baekje area was occupied by local nobles and city lords who surrendered and rebelled, and the establishment was chaotic and orders were carried out inconsistently, not to mention that they did not guard against the sea.

Even if you are prepared, you don’t know where to deliver the message.

After Maixun sent a signal, the big ship had already put down the river channel and came in along the port and went up the river.

The Tang army did not care about rest and worked hard to transport the mountains of grain in the granary onto the ship.

This time, Su Da was ready, and hundreds of unicycle trolleys had been reserved on the ship.

It is the kind that is commonly used for black teeth that day.

Although it is prepared, there is still a shortage of supply.

Fortunately, the Tang army was properly dispatched and finally there was no trouble, so they moved the grain warehouse safely.

He also moved all the soldiers, armor and arrows that were present in Goguryeo.

It was true that there was no grain left.

When everything was done, several hours had passed and the sky was bright.

From the direction of Goguryeo, smoke and dust gradually rose.

The Tang army scouts returned, and a large number of Goguryeo cavalry appeared twenty miles away.

Su Dawei laughed, got up and said to Heichi Changzhi and An Wensheng: "The whole army withdrew, and Maishahu, no, return Incheon to the Goguryeo people."

"promise."

When the Goguryeo people arrived at Maishahu, except for an empty city, the granary and the armory that were empty to run on mice, there were only thousands of Goguryeo people whose thumbs were cut off.

Seeing this scene, the Goguryeo reinforcements turned black and they cursed angrily: "The Tang army is so vicious!"

If you cut off your thumb, you will be unable to use bows and arrows, and you will almost declare your death in your military career.

This move did not hurt many lives, but also reduced Goguryeo's thousands of employees, and also carried thousands of mouths to eat for the people of Goguryeo.

Seeing this situation, it would be strange if the Goguryeo people didn't curse.

"General, Tang people... Tang people's ship!"

On the top of the city, there were soldiers pointing to the distant sea.

But the sea was sparkling, and three large Tang army ships lined up on the water.

The snow-white sails were swelled by the sea breeze.

The boat borrows the wind and casts like an arrow.

I can't catch up even if I want to.

Goguryeo was so angry that she stomped her feet on the top of the city and cursed her, but she could only watch the Tang army's ships go away.

It could be heard faintly, and a huge burst of laughter came from the ship.

This sarcastic laughter made the Goguryeo reinforcements on the top of Maizhaohu's city look red and they are so angry that they are almost vomiting blood.

The reinforcements general punched him hard in his fist.

Because the force is too strong, the flesh at the end of the fist cracks and blood bursts out.

"Where is Echiki?"

"General, Ochiki...he is dead!"

General Goguryeo was shocked when he heard this, his blood-blushed and his face turned pale in an instant.

Yizhiqi was a descendant of Yizhi Wende, a famous general in Goguryeo, and he was also a famous brave general in Goguryeo.

In Maitzhao Hucheng, he was attracted by his courage and was ready to use him as a pioneer to guide Baekje and expand the strategic depth of Goguryeo.

But now, Echiki is dead.

Dead so quietly.

But it means that Goguryeo's strategy has not yet begun, and it has been still in the womb.

I don’t know how much manpower and material resources this batch of grain and equipment has consumed. If it is to be raised again, it will be afraid that it will take two or three months.

The problem is...

Will the Tang Army give Goguryeo this time?

The reinforcements stood at the top of the city, shaking slightly like seaweed under the sea breeze, as if they were a little unsteady.

He looked at the sea in a daze and the Tang people's warships, his mood kept falling.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone shouting behind me: "Fire!"

He looked back and his pupils instantly dilated.

I don’t know when a fire broke out from Maizhaohu City.

Suddenly, it rushed for half a day.

The heat waves are rolling.

"Tangren, vicious!"

The general shook his body and a mouthful of blood rushed out of his throat.

The Tang navy's naval ship stopped on the sea, waiting to get closer to the small boat that came out of the Maizhaohu Shunjiang, and then picked up the spies left by the Tang army on the ship, then set sail and left.

Su Dawei not only captured all the food and grass and weapons in Maizhao, but also did two things.

First, my life cuts off all Goguryeo people's thumbs.

The second is to sprinkle tinder oil everywhere.

When the navy arrived, the ship had already brought enough whale oil and black turtle oil.

When the Goguryeo reinforcements entered the city, they quietly set fire.

Without spending a single army and a soldier in the Tang army, the Goguryeo suffered huge losses.

"I have heard General Su Dingfang mention that the younger generation has Su Dawei. When I see him today, I am well-deserved."

A broad and slightly hoarse voice sounded from behind.

Su Dawei turned around and saw the navy general who cooperated with his actions this time.

This is a general about 60 years old.

He was covered in golden armor, dark skin, thick joints on both palms, a straight nose bridge, and his eyes were like leopards, and his eyes were shining.

Between the chin, there was a thick black beard like Zhang Fei, a man from the swallow, which looked extremely rough and powerful.

However, this person's speech was gentle and elegant, with a straight voice, and seemed extremely calm.

"Thank you, General, don't you think it's too cruel for me to cut off their thumbs?"

"My hero, his enemy, and the two armies are fighting, how can there be cruelty? There is no popular saying in the army for women."

The Golden Armor General laughed: "I am white now, so don't call me a general, just call me my word, just right."

Liu Rengui, whose courtesy name was Zhengze, was born in the Weishi family in Bianzhou and was descended from Liu Yan, Emperor Zhang of Han.

During the reign of Emperor Taizong, he was famous for his blunt words and dared to give advice, and he was in trouble to serve as a minister.

After Li Zhi ascended the throne, he served as the governor of Qingzhou.

"The courtesy cannot be abolished, and the army is full of robes. If the general had not received the timely response this time, the plan would not have been so perfect."

"Ami, you have a correct vision and use your troops like a god. This time, the Goguryeo suffered a great loss, but our army suffered a small loss. It is really a fearful life!"

Liu Rengui laughed loudly, he seemed to love laughing very much.

Su Dawei knew that in fact, Liu Rengui has not been doing very well in recent years.

In the fourth year of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty, Liu Rengui offended Li Yi's mansion for handling the "Bi Zhengyi case" and was demoted to the governor of Qingzhou.

In the fifth year of Xianqing, Emperor Gaozong sent troops to conquer Baekje, and Liu Rengui was ordered to supervise the shipping.

Li Yifu, knowing that the time was inappropriate, forcibly urged him to go to sea.

As a result, the fleet sank in the wind on the way, with serious casualties.

The imperial court sent the supervisory censor Yuan Yishi to interrogate.

After the case was closed, Li Yifu said to Emperor Gaozong: "If Liu Rengui is not killed, he will not apologize to the people."

Sherenyuan said in a heart-wrenching manner: "The sea storm is not expected by manpower."

Emperor Gaozong then only dismissed Liu Rengui and followed the army in white clothes.

So just now Su Dawei called Liu Rengui the "general", and Liu Rengui said that he was white.

A white body is a civilian and has no official position.

Su Dawei naturally would not despise Liu Rengui at all because of this.

Historically, after Su Dingfang pacified Baekje, Liu In-yuan was appointed as the captain, and together with Kim In-tai, the youngest son of King Jin Chunqiu of Silla, guarded the capital of Baekje, Si-san (later in Fuyu County, Chungcheong-do, South Korea).

The Tang Dynasty established the Xiongjin Governor's Office in Baekje and appointed Wang Wendu, the General of the Left Guard, as the General of the Xiongjin Governor.

However, Wang Wendu died of illness while crossing the sea, so Emperor Gaozong appointed Liu Rengui as the chief of the Fangzhou governor to replace Wang Wendu to command the army.

In other words, after Wang Wendu's death, the court would appoint Liu Rengui to take over the mess in Baekje.

But because of Su Dawei's appearance, all this history has changed.

According to history, the famous "Baijiangkou Battle" between the Tang Dynasty and Japan was commanded by Liu Rengui.

In terms of a single naval battle, Liu Rengui can rank among the top three in the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, all of this, because of Su Dawei's existence, the upcoming Battle of Baijiangkou will inevitably change.

"Ami, don't blame me for making me a simple and profound statement. With your great kindness to me, I will definitely help you with all my strength, and I have the relationship between you and I, General Manager Su."

Liu Rengui said in Su Dawei's ear with a voice that only two people could hear.

Su Dawei nodded to him.

Previously, Li Yifu had hinted that Liu Ren was willing to secretly get rid of Liu Rengui, but was dissuaded by Su Dawei.

On the surface, the relationship between Su Dawei and Liu Renyuan has dropped to freezing point.

And behind the scenes, no one knows the true relationship between Su Dawei and Liu Renyuan.

If there were party friends in the Tang army.

Su Dawei, Liu Renyuan, and Liu Rengui all belong to the faction of Su Dingfang.

In the fifth year of Yonghui, Liu Renyuan was appointed as the chief supervisor of the Congshan Road military commander, and followed the Duke of Lu, Cheng Zhijie, to attack the Western Turkic Shabolu Khan Ashinahelu.

It was this expedition that led Liu Renyuan to establish a special relationship with Su Dingfang.

Su Dawei was the successor of military strategy designated by Su Dingfang and a disciple of the robe and mantle.

With this relationship, will Liu Renyuan turn against Su Dawei?

But now everyone in Siqi City thinks that Liu Renyuan breaks with Su Dawei.

There is a mystery in this.

It involves the secret between Su Dawei and Liu Renyuan.

And the relationship between Liu Renyuan and Liu Rengui can be said to be good now.

Otherwise, in history, there would not be any incident in which Li Yifu ordered Liu Renyuan to assassinate Liu Rengui, but was rejected by Liu Renyuan.

In short, it is easy to do things in the army with their own talents.

If a general who is restraining each other, the navy will only arrive at Maishahu for one hour in the evening.

What is waiting for Su Dawei is most likely the result of being entangled by Goguryeo's continuous reinforcements and annihilated all the troops.

War is a major event of life and death.

You must observe it.

"Governor Su, are we going back to Siqi now?"

Facing the salty and fishy sea breeze, Liu Rengui turned his head and looked at Su Dawei.

I saw huge waves on the sea stirring up snow-white foam and splashing.

The sea breeze blew Su Dawei's black hair bun.

This young general of the Tang Dynasty, holding the ship's side, looked firm and brightly at the peninsula land.

From this perspective, you can only see the undulating black shore base.

Liu Rengui couldn't help but wonder: "What is Governor Su looking at?"

"General, look, there, there is a dozen miles from Maitzhaohu, across the Han River, which is Seoul, one of the three capitals of Goguryeo."
