Chapter 195: New Bohai Country
When I first saw this army, Dong Jin was surprised. This army was completely in line with the tradition of Liaodong - it was messy.
Perhaps it was because the strength of the Khitans was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The Wei of the Dashi organized this army completely in the appearance of the Khitans.
When the Liao army fought, the cavalry was a team of 500-700 people, ten teams were one, and ten lines were one side. Each team had a head coach. Each team took turns to rush the enemy formation, not giving the enemy a chance to breathe, and their own troops could rest. If the enemy formation was strong and did not attack vigorously, they would take turns to rush for two or three days, waiting for the enemy to be tired, and then send auxiliary combat troops to "Dao Caogu Cavalry" to confuse the enemy formation, and the main force took advantage of the situation to annihilate the enemy.
The same is true for Dashi Wei. He was a team of five hundred men, and the army was just enough. He was the commander and commanded such an army.
After observing for a long time, looking at this powerful cavalry, Dong Jin had to admit that such an army was the most suitable in the vast Liaodong.
"How?" asked the middle-aged man in charge of business activities.
"This army is quite brave. Once the order is issued, life and death are ignored. It is simply a natural army. I don't know what the Bohai Army is, but if our imperial guards face it, they will definitely be defeated."
These barbarians, sitting on the horse, were like sticking. No matter how bumpy they were, they were fine. They were also very good at shooting skills, and there was a bow hanging on the side of the horse. Who could resist it?
Dong Jin said with lingering fear.
When Jeju Island learned that a war would take place in Liaodong, he was unwilling to fall behind and quickly dispatched the best cavalry Miaozi to let Dong Jin lead him to observe the cavalry war.
Dong Jin came out of Lingnan and came to Jeju Island. He trained horses and trained cavalry. It can be said that although the commanders of the Yulin Army were in charge of the cavalry, he did not have a deep understanding of the command of the cavalry.
"I never thought that these barbarians were so powerful!" The middle-aged man sighed and then said quietly:
"We Han'er is not as good as these barbarians who have been on horseback since childhood. Now they are short of horses. No wonder Yanyun's Sixteen Prefectures cannot take them back. There is a reason!"
"Why just recruit these barbarians directly. Not to mention the Central Plains of Liaodong, the Southern Kingdom alone is invincible! I think these guys with a tiny head, just one iron pot and a few kilograms of salt!"
"This..." Dong Jin's head kept turning, thinking that these best riders became his subordinates, a look of surprise instantly appeared on his face. How happy should he be?
"Is this good?"
"Hehe, the Governor's Office sent a clutch to our Jeju Island, just to ask us to recruit more cavalry. If the Dashi Wei wins, buy the defeated soldiers from him. If the Dashi Wei loses, gather these defeated soldiers from the riverside!"
"Anyway, we are invincible, but this Jurchen is really powerful. If we gather it, the Governor's Office will not blame you."
The middle-aged man's words were very light, but the content was not light, and Dong Jin smiled instantly.
While the two were talking, Dashi Wei held an oath meeting. A flag to clear the monarch's side was lifted out, and then the army was mobilized to start the road of conquest.
At this time, the decision to send troops was also difficult. The Zhou Kingdom's northern expedition made the entire Khitan feel as if it was facing a great enemy. He waited for the opportunity to fight again when the two countries fought.
As a result, the Zhou Kingdom suddenly withdrew, and the tens of thousands of cavalry gathered by the Khitan dispersed very slowly, and it was only then that it was really idle.
Therefore, the time of the conquest has been delayed to this day.
Five thousand cavalry pioneered the way, and thousands of infantry followed behind. As soon as this army left Changbai Mountain, it scared Zhongjing Xiande Mansion and captured Zhongjing in just a few days.
At this time, it was less than three hundred miles away from Shangjing Longquan Prefecture, which is the capital of Hou Bohai Kingdom.
The father and son of Lie were shocked in an instant and quickly dispatched a large army to block the attack.
It has to be said that when the banner of Qing dynasty was launched, the old ministers of the Da clan period stood up one after another and defamed the Lie father and son of the country.
For a moment, the entire Shangquan Prefecture was insignificant, and the Bohai Kingdom seemed to be returning to orthodox.
The Li Chamber of Commerce followed Dashi Wei and was full.
The gold, silver and other obtained from the treasury were given to the Li Chamber of Commerce, and the large number of arrows, scimitars, spearheads, etc. made the Dashi Wei expand his military strength and expand to 30,000 people.
Although the quality is uneven, the momentum is amazing.
However, the Lie family and son were not vegetarians. They could withstand the pressure of the Khitans and restore the Bohai Kingdom, so they naturally had their trump card.
Thousands of cavalry in Yalu Mansion were following Dashi Wei. If he took a step to Longquan Mansion, his fate would be waiting for him.
The father and son of Lie also organized tens of thousands of troops in Longquan Mansion and continued to thicken the city, as if he wanted him to get tired of his head.
At this time, Dashi Wei hesitated.
If he advances, he may be able to capture Longquan Mansion, but he will definitely suffer heavy losses. Bohai Kingdom finally recovered, but if he doesn't do it well, he will be destroyed again. The Khitans are eyeing each other.
Turn around and eliminate the cavalry behind them, those who are the main forces guarding against the Khitans in Liaodong Prefecture. If they are destroyed, the east gate of the Bohai Kingdom will be opened.
Although power is very tempting, if Bohai Kingdom is destroyed again, he will become a sinner himself.
On the surface, he acted like going north, but secretly sent spies to the southeast. How could he hide this from the Li Chamber of Commerce?
"I never thought that he actually retreated!" Dong Jin shook his head, saying a pity.
"Are both jade and stone burned? The Khitans are not vegetarians!"
"That's right, not only do you not eat vegetarian food, but also eat meat. Every day, they are just a piece of fat meat in their mouths!"
The two of them immediately lost the desire to explore at night and took the entire caravan back to the Yalu River ship and returned to the voyage.
When they arrived at Jeju Island, they heard the news that the Dashi Wei captured the Nanhai Prefecture (the northern part of the peninsula, one of the five capitals of the Bohai Kingdom, and its capital was Wozhou).
The terrain of Nanhai Prefecture is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Although it is sparsely populated, the Khitan is separated from Yalu Mansion and is far from Longquan Mansion, so it is indeed suitable for separatist parties.
Before the Khitans could react, the two reached an agreement.
After the Dashi Wei occupied the Nanhai Prefecture, he called himself the King of Bohai, and the father and son of the Lie clan in Longquan Prefecture were also very cognizable and no longer mobilized the army.
As the Dashi Wei re-established the flag of the Bohai Kingdom, the father and son of the Lie family no longer pretended to use the flag of the Bohai Kingdom and raised the flag of the Anding Kingdom.
After the Dashi Wei arrived in the South China Sea Kingdom, the old people from Bohai fled here continuously. In just a few months, the population of Nanhai Prefecture exceeded 300,000. It is not a dream to exceed one million, so the foundation will be achieved.
