Attack Goguryeo!

The three-man civil and military group headed by Chu Tianxiu, Li Jing, and Xu Xingzhi carefully compared the nautical map of the Yellow Sea with the topographic map of Goguryeo, specially made a corresponding sand table, and conducted war games.

"No, Yongdong is almost more than a thousand nautical miles away from Goguryeo, and it is all land and sea. When sailing, you do not rely on land. Even if you are just a merchant traveling by boat, there is a risk of more than half of casualties, let alone marching and fighting? If there is a slight mistake,

Even if there is just a strong wind, life and death will be in danger! This is the way for soldiers to take risks and risk death!"

Li Jing is indeed worthy of his reputation in later generations, and his strategic vision is by no means comparable to ordinary people.

When it comes to Xu Xingzhi's ability in domestic affairs and logistics, he is indeed unparalleled in the country. However, in terms of military affairs, although he can also lead troops in battles and is probably at the level of a famous general, compared with Li Jing, he is even worse.

One step ahead.

But what made Chu Tianxiu a little embarrassed was that after Li Jing carefully figured out the waterways and terrain according to the sand table and map provided by Chu Tianxiu, he immediately lost his temper and almost completely rejected Chu Tianxiu's water and land attack plan, thinking that he

This is totally a recipe for death.

"I know this, that's why I plan to take over Tamna Kingdom south of Silla first, temporarily store troops and horses here, rest for a while, and then launch troops to harass Goguryeo!"

If Li Jing had spoken more tactfully, Chu Tianxiu would have been more polite, but he usually had a good temperament, but when it came to the military, he became violently sexual. Chu Tianxiu didn't get used to him, and directly attacked him.

, the echo roared.

Tamna Island was the ancient name of Jeju Island in later generations.

This is the largest island near the Korean Peninsula. It faces the Korean Peninsula to the south. It covers an area of ​​more than 400 miles, has vast mountains and rivers, fertile land, and is rich in citrus and horses. It is known as "every family has oranges and pomelos, and everywhere they have mules." It is also a

A prosperous country.

This is undoubtedly a small country, and its military strength is weaker than that of the indigenous tribes in Yizhou. As long as Chu Tianxiu leads his troops to attack, he can easily defeat them all, and then they can

Use it as a springboard to attack Goguryeo from land and sea.

this--

Chu Tianxiu really felt a little stunned. If his offensive strategy was only risky, then Li Jing's opinion was to let Chu Tianxiu fight the Japanese country first before fighting Goguryeo.

Let’s tear off a piece of territory!

This is a bit outrageous!

If one were to speak honestly, Chu Tianxiu would naturally be willing to follow Li Jing's suggestion. Bloodletting and cutting off territory for the current Japanese country would be completely beneficial to his physical and mental health.

What he was thinking about was that Li Jing might want to send his troops north from Jiangyin, and after breaking up with Li Zitong from Hailing, he could then send his troops north by sea and land, and directly capture Donglai County, which is a corner of the Central Plains.

He regarded that place as his base camp and attacked Goguryeo from there.

"Yes, in my opinion, if we can seize this place from Japan first and use it as a springboard to directly attack the east coast of Goguryeo, it would be the most ideal choice."

Since ancient times, except for a very small number of war madmen such as Genghis Khan in Mongolia, even war madmen like Napoleon and Hitler would try to control the rhythm of the war to avoid making the war bigger, worse and worse, and ultimately completely out of control.

"Tianxiu, what you said is indeed true, but have you ever thought about it carefully? Tamna Kingdom is a vassal state of Baekje, and the current king of Baekje, Buyeo Chang, is also a powerful ruler. Even Goguryeo is afraid of three points. How can he

Can you swallow this breath? Could it be that before our army attacks Goguryeo, it must first fight with Baekje?"

But the question is, how can a war be fought like this?

What he wants to fight is Goguryeo, not Japan, which is farther away. Although Japan is certainly much easier to deal with than Goguryeo today, it is still a "country". Even if Chu Tianxiu exerts his strength, he can really defeat Japan.

Japan has tidied it up, but by that time, the day lilies may have become cold.

Li Jing's eyes were bright and powerful, he looked at Chu Tianxiu without any sign of weakness, pointed his right hand at the Baekje Kingdom on the sand table, and said unceremoniously.

What he said was actually just pure anger. Buyeo Chang of Baekje was not easy to mess with, so is Japan easy to mess with now? That can be considered a big country in East Asia.

"Then tell me, how should I respond? Could it be that you hope to send troops from Yizhou to the south, first tear off a piece of land from Japan, and then use it as a springboard to hit Goguryeo's back!"

Why did Chu Tianxiu attack Goguryeo?

Except that he was indeed a little dizzy at the time, his biggest purpose was to win over people's hearts and accumulate popularity in preparation for his army to launch the Sui Dynasty.

But this method is a good one from a military perspective, but from a political perspective, it is not at all.

Any good commander will almost always try to control the scale of the war and reduce the occurrence of accidents. Even when the war begins, he has already thought of the end of the war.

Chu Tianxiu stared at him angrily and said with a sneer.

If he had to send troops to the Sui Dynasty and then attack Goguryeo, why not wait a little longer until he had solved Li Er of the Li clan and unified the world before taking action? Wouldn't that be more reasonable?

But what Chu Tianxiu didn't expect was that Li Jing nodded slowly:

Chu Tianxiu saw the position of Li Jing's finger and immediately recognized it——

Li Jing seemed to see the confusion in Chu Tianxiu's eyes, so he pointed to a small island in the northernmost part of Japan and said: "My idea is actually simple. Starting from Yizhou, go to Ryukyu first, then here, and then occupy this island away from Baekje."

, using a small island no more than a hundred miles away from Goguryeo as a base, then our army can advance and attack, and retreat and defend, eliminating most of the trouble..."

Soldiers are a matter of life and death.

From a military point of view, it is indeed the best plan. It has the right time, place and people. It is the sea route of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty when he conquered Goguryeo three times, and it was also the sea and land route of later Li Shimin when he defeated Goguryeo three times. It can be said that

The best route to attack Goguryeo by land and sea.

Isn’t this Tsushima Island!

To pre-conquer Goryeo, you must first defeat the enemy. To defeat Japan in advance, you must also defeat the enemy.

Chu Tianxiu had vaguely heard of the love-hate relationship between Goryeo and Japan, and knew that this place was indeed a key point. The two countries had been fighting for almost a thousand years for this small place, and you would know how powerful it was. Li Jing

It's really impressive that he can take this place seriously at a glance.

but--

Just as Chu Tianxiu asked Li Jing for the same reason as Li Jing had just answered, he heard Xu Xingzhi on the other side suddenly clasping his hands and laughing:

"Wonderful, General Li is indeed a wise general praised by the lord. If General Li hadn't reminded me, I would have ignored this place. Yes, with this support, our army will also have land and islands to rely on, and it will no longer be the original rootless country.

Ping."
