Qianzhao successfully captured Xiangping County, eliminated Gongsun's supporters, and killed many people.
Then with the help of Qin Yue and Sun Zhao, they integrated the remaining troops in the city, and with both grace and power, they quickly gathered these leaderless soldiers, obtained more than 2,000 usable troops, and then further controlled Xiangping City.
Next, Qianzhao cut off all grain and fodder transportation in the surrounding area, especially the grain and fodder transportation to Liaoyang County ahead.
He regrouped all the food in Xiangping County, reorganized his troops, and while keeping an eye on the movements of Goguryeo and Fuyu, he contacted his own personnel in the Liaoyang County army through spies, that is, the three captains.
.
Qianzhao hoped that they could eradicate Gongsundu's diehard loyalists in the army, and then successfully control the army in Liaoyang County, without causing any chaos in the army, so that he could successfully control the main body of the Liaodong Army and recruit them as much as possible, and
Not kill them all.
Qianzhao hoped to get their help and let them impart enough experience to the Han army so that the Han army could easily deal with Goguryeo's army and Fuyu's army and sweep across Liaodong.
It is not difficult to calculate whether one has intention or not.
The spies acted quickly and arrived at the Liaoyang County military camp before the news of the interruption of grain transportation arrived, and informed the three captains in the army - Zhang Zheng, Han Zun, and Zhu Qian - of the relevant news.
Or how can we say that the only martial arts in the world that can't be broken is fast?
Fast is really important.
Because the time when Zhang Zheng, Han Zun and Zhu Qian learned about this matter was actually only an hour faster. The three of them used it properly to change the entire situation and eliminate Yang Yi and Liu Yi.
The only chance for others to counterattack.
The three of them worked together and found Liu Yi, Yang Yi, and another "die loyal" of Gongsun Du - his son, Gongsun Kang.
Then, the decapitation tactic was implemented.
Due to calculated calculations without intention, Liu Yi and Yang Yi were killed before they could react.
Gongsun Kang was more clever, perhaps because Zhu Qian's operation was a bit reckless, so Gongsun Kang was on guard. When Zhu Qian suddenly attacked, Gongsun Kang blocked the first time, but he failed to block the second time.
, Zhu Qian was very powerful and Gongsun Kang was young. He lost his sword and was killed by Zhu Qian with one blow.
After the deaths of Liu Yi, Yang Yi and Gongsun Kang, Zhang Zheng, Han Zun and Zhu Qian had the upper hand. They immediately led their own troops to annex the troops of the three dead men and killed all the loyal guards.
, the remaining big soldiers changed their camps in a daze, and then opened the city gates to welcome the soldiers into the city.
As a result, Qianzhao once again successfully captured a city and Gongsun Du's remaining elite troops.
After a series of punches, it didn't take much effort to pull the move, and it didn't lose many troops. It annexed the 10,000 strong force that Gongsun Du had spent several years training, and killed less than a thousand during the period.
Some of the die-hard Gongsun clan members also fled, but more than 8,000 people were still recruited as a whole.
Qianzhao then launched the operation with more than 10,000 people, leaving some troops to wait for the army in Liaoyang County. He took the remaining main force back to Xiangping County and continued to monitor the actions of Goguryeo and Buyeo.
Because this series of actions was so fast, it only took three days from the attack on Xiangping. Therefore, when Qianzhao returned to Xiangping County victoriously, he learned that the Goguryeo and Buyeo people had not yet started anything.
In an unusual military operation, they are still mobilizing troops and horses and are gathering near the border of Liaodong County.
After Xiangping County was pacified by Zhao Zhao, he naturally took over all the power of Liaodong County. At the same time, he also sent people to Xuantu County and Lelang County to let the governors of Xuantu County and Lelang County understand the current situation and stop doing unnecessary things.
resist and obediently accept the court's orders. This can be regarded as meritorious service and will not be punished.
Qianzhao also launched a screening process for the officials in the three counties of Liaodong. Those who were too close to Gongsun Du would not be forgiven. They would all be arrested and investigated. Even if they were not killed, they would not be allowed to continue serving. As for those who were too close to Gongsun Du, they would not be allowed to continue serving.
Others who had to obey just to earn a living or were frightened by Gongsun's force were more or less willing to forgive.
He quickly issued a pacification order, announcing that the power of the three counties in Liaodong had been taken over by the central court. Except for the remnants of the Gongsun family, everyone else was innocent and could be forgiven. This calmed people's hearts in a short period of time.
Later, Qianzhao found local officials in the county and the surrendered Liaodong Army generals, and consulted them about Goguryeo and Buyeo, hoping to get some useful information from them.
According to the information from the locals, Qianzhao learned that the Goguryeo and Fuyu people were relatively barbaric beings. They began to invade Liaodong County decades ago, and then suffered repeated counterattacks from the government. After many failures, they occasionally won.
, and robbed officials and people.
Among them, the Fuyu people are more willing to get closer to the Han Empire, have a relatively mild attitude, are easier to talk to, and admire the culture and military force of the Han Empire. They are more timid and easy to handle, so they are often used by local officials in Liaodong County to do things.
, the level of rebellion is relatively low, but of course that doesn’t mean there is none at all.
The Goguryeo people were more alienated from the Han Empire and had a relatively bad attitude. Compared with the Fuyu people who were more willing to "bathe in the king's status", the Goguryeo people were more willing to abide by their own rules and invaded the Han Empire's borders more often.
There are more Goguryeo than Buyeo, so local people hate Goguryeo even more, and think Buyeo is relatively okay.
Naturally, that is to say, it is relative. If we really want to say that there is any difference between us, it is obviously not the same. Whether it is the Buyeo Kingdom, the Goguryeo Kingdom, or the Dongwoju and other tribes, everyone is not a fuel-efficient lamp. They all have many.
A series of military operations were carried out with Liaodong County, Xuantu County, and Lelang County. They fought back and forth, and nearly a hundred years passed.
But now, because Gongsun Du has shown great power in the past few years and defeated the Goguryeo and Fuyu people many times, the Goguryeo and Fuyu people were afraid of Gongsun Du's force, so they expressed their willingness to surrender and obey Gongsun Du's command to fight others.
, so in exchange for Gongsun Du's tolerance, he allowed them to exist.
In fact, Gongsundu did not have the strength to really annex Fuyu and Goguryeo. He lamented to people around him many times that he was not strong enough. If he was strong enough, he should be able to annex these two countries and then expand his power.
, who truly became the king of Liaodong, unfortunately, lacked strength.
This is also the main reason why Goguryeo and Buyeo can continue to exist.
But in any case, Goguryeo and Buyeo now know that the Han army is going to attack them, and they have prepared for war. It is impossible to succeed in a surprise attack, and the main force of the army has not arrived yet. It is best to
The best response is to wait for the main force of the army.
Goguryeo and Fuyu were attacked by the Liaodong army during Gongsundu's era, and their fear of the Liaodong army did not disappear for a while. As long as the news of Gongsundu's arrest did not spread, they would not dare to act rashly and would continue to wait.
Gongsun Du’s order.
And this period of time is the most precious time for Qianzhao.
Qianzhao clarified his thoughts and understood the local situation, so he did not take any action. He just continued to collect grain and grass, strengthened his reserves, and then sent people back by boat to ask Xiahou Dun to transport more grain. He was in Xiangping City
Continue to understand the existence and history of these small countries and tribal alliances in Liaodong.
In three days, Qianzhao almost clarified the relationship between the Goguryeo people, the Fuyu people and other tribal alliances in Liaodong. He learned about the existence history of these people and had a clear idea.
The task Liu Bei gave him was to completely wipe out all the external forces here, eliminate all foreigners, wipe them out, and continue to explore eastward until the coast of the sea.
Not only the Goguryeo and Buyeo kingdoms, but also the forces of Dongwoju further south, as well as the legendary three Korean forces, they all need to be dealt with, and then the four Han counties established by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty can be restored.
In addition to Lelang County and Xuantu County, there are also Zhenfan County and Lintun County.
This is a very large-scale military operation. As long as it succeeds, you can get a lot of military merit. However, Liu Bei obviously wants to finish his work in one battle. After this battle, there will probably be no more battles to fight in Liaodong. By then, the army will
There is no point in staying here anymore, so where can I go in the future?
I kept thinking and thinking, and my mind suddenly jumped to a very far away place.
It’s not his fault. According to my understanding, the countries here and the tribal alliances all have primitive economic capabilities, cultural capabilities, and military capabilities. They are all crushed by the Han Empire in all aspects. As long as the army is ready, it can
Erba Jing's attack can easily destroy these small countries and tribal alliances.
The next governance will definitely not be the army's turn to gain any merit, so after this battle, where will the entire Northeast Military Region go?
Qianzhao is still young, so he doesn't think it is a good choice for him to become an official in Luoyang now. He still prefers to lead troops, fight, and want to make meritorious deeds.
But there are no enemies anymore, so what should we do?
At the moment of the war, Qianzhao actually fell into deep thought about his future.
Three days later, the vanguard of the main force of the Northeast Military Region arrived in Liaoyang County, and then quickly arrived in Xiangping County.
The main force that followed them also arrived in Liaoyang County one after another in the next five days. Ma Teng, Qianzhao's deputy who was responsible for commanding the march of the main force, performed the tasks assigned to him by Qianzhao very well.
After receiving supplies one after another, the army continued southward to Xiangping County, where they gathered, rested, and had several hot meals to regain their strength.
During this period, the Goguryeo army and the Fuyu army did not take the initiative to launch an attack. Instead, they kept sending sentries to try to get closer to Xiangping County to find out information. However, they were quickly driven away and killed by Han army cavalry.
Although the Han army behaved like this, the Goguryeo and Fuyu people were even more panicked and still did not dare to take the initiative to attack. The two kings gradually became anxious and even thought about sending people to Xiangping County to take a look?
Mainly from the time when their common enemies, the Xianbei and Wuhuan people, were wiped out by Liu Bei, they knew that the Han army was highly martial and had some fear of the Han army.
Gongsun Du was able to survive the initial fragile period later because the prestige left by Liu Bei was so strong that even though Gongsun Du did not have many troops, the Fuyu and Goguryeo people still did not dare to act.
Now there is no news about Gongsun Du, and the sentry cavalry was killed by the cavalry. The two kings were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, running around, worried, but they didn't know what to do.
After the army on the other side arrived, Qianzhao felt determined. Although the Leopard Cavalry and the Valiant Cavalry had not arrived yet, with nearly 40,000 troops in hand, Qianzhao felt that he was invincible, so he started
Arrange the combat objectives, assign tasks to the generals, and prepare the troops to be divided into two groups to capture Goguryeo and Buyeo respectively.
But before he could carry out military operations, the Knight Cavalry Army and the Leopard Cavalry Army rushed over impatiently.
They gave full play to the advantages of the cavalry army. Under the standard action mode of one man and two horses, the 20,000 elite cavalry crossed Jizhou and entered Youzhou at lightning speed, and then entered the prairie from Youzhou, making a big turn from the prairie.
Entering Liaodong County, Qian Zhao was stunned by the speed and felt that Xia Houyuan and Pang De were cheating.
Are you really that happy to take credit from me?
Qianzhao was quite dumbfounded, but they had indeed arrived, with red eyes and a desire for military success.
There is no other way, Qianzhao can only assign tasks to them.
Xia Houyuan led a group of troops to attack the Fuyu army, and Pang De led a group of troops to attack the Goguryeo army. After wiping out the main force of their army, they quickly launched an attack on the two kings' city, broke through their city, and destroyed their ruling group.
They were completely buried in the ice and snow of the Northeast.
After Xia Houyuan and Pang De received the order, they quickly attacked, while Qianzhao followed as the commander. As they walked, they prayed that the Goguryeo and Buyeo people would not be too vulnerable, and that they should show a little bit of the momentum of a fighting nation, so that these people
The battle is a bit of a talking point, and I can fully demonstrate my strong tactical organizational skills.
However, the dream of recruiting people still failed to come true, because the Goguryeo and Buyeo people were really not good enough in front of the elite Han army. They could not withstand the impact of one round and were completely crushed by the Han army's cavalry.
It's so broken that you can't stick it even if you pick it up, which is really a bit miserable.
In the final analysis, this result cannot be entirely blamed on the Goguryeo and Buyeo people for their lack of strength, but on the fact that the Xiaoqiu Army and the Leopard Cavalry Army were too powerful.
The Knight Cavalry Army, the Leopard Cavalry Army and the Tiger Cavalry Army were the three earliest armies formed in the early Han Dynasty. Most of the people who first followed Liu Bei and became the backbone of the army were in these three armies.
At the same time, they are also the main ace force that has become famous after the reorganization of the Han army. The whole army is made of fierce knights with excellent riding skills and various new equipment bonuses. If they charge, it will not only destroy the world, but also destroy the world.
