Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

This Japanese country doesn't know how to fight.

Li Shi𪟝 has boldly made an assertion about the Japanese state.

Since the pre-Qin Dynasty, all generals of the Han family have attached great importance to intelligence.

After all, anyone who leads an army knows the famous saying of Sun Tzu:

If you know your enemy and yourself, you will be in danger in a hundred battles; if you don't know your enemy and yourself, you will be in danger in every battle.

And at the end of The Beginning of Plans, Sun Tzu said that the whole article on the art of war only does two things: to learn the plan, and to find out the emotion.

Yongjian Chapter also has the same conclusion, A prophet must be able to rely on others and know the enemy's feelings.

Therefore, all generals of the Han family attach great importance to intelligence. After all, this is the real key to military affairs.

As a result, Japan blindly believed in second-hand news.

If the Japanese country doesn't think about it, Goguryeo and Baekje can't truthfully tell them that they need reinforcements from the Japanese army to fight against the Tang Dynasty, right?

Li Jing was silent before, but now he listened to Li Shi's explanation and thought for a while and said:

This Japanese country is trapped in an island country, and has no strong enemies to compete with, and it is blocked by the sea as a natural barrier.

I'm afraid... there are too many people who are not like me, Tang.

Du Ruhui was thoughtful, but he understood some of Li Jing's words.

Just as there are differences in folk customs between the north and the south, there is no analogy between the Central Plains and the Western Regions.

This Japanese country originated from an island, and most of its people's customs are completely different from China's.

Therefore, we cannot use the thoughts of Han'er of the Tang Dynasty to speculate on the thoughts of the Japanese state.

But for a while, Du Ruhui became very interested in the Japanese country.

When there is Tang territory on this island, he would like to go and see it.

[When Japan officially entered the war, from Baekje’s perspective, the Korean Peninsula had entered garbage time.

Goguryeo used his own face to beat Tang Jun's hand until it turned red.

Although our Baekje Restoration Army couldn't break into Sixian City, the Tang Army couldn't fight out either.

As long as you persist, victory will definitely belong to Baekje!

So Baekje Prince Buyeo Bongjang, who returned from studying in Japan, once again launched a traditional performance: popping champagne at halftime.

He sent an envoy to show off to Liu Rengui and said:

The army of our ally, the Japanese, is already on the way. If you are wise enough to withdraw your troops now, I can beat gongs and drums to send them off. If you are ignorant and continue to resist, you will wait to die when the Japanese heavenly soldiers arrive!

Liu Rengui responded very appropriately. After hearing this, he politely sent the envoy out of the city and asked me to think about it.

But as soon as the envoy left, Liu Rengui fired up his army, and after nightfall, he couldn't wait to launch a despicable sneak attack.

The Baekje Restoration Army, which was already celebrating its victory in advance, did not expect this to happen. They were defeated on the spot. Fuyu Fengzhang fled for more than two hundred miles without looking back.

Liu Ingui had been planning this opportunity for too long. Seeing this, he led the advance without hesitation, won consecutive battles, and captured Jinhyeonseong, the military center of the Baekje Restoration Army in one go.

Zhenxian City is to Baekje and Silla just like Tongguan is to Chang'an and Luoyang. Liu Rengui's reoccupation here means reconnecting with Silla.

The dilemma of fighting alone ended, and the Tang army officially began to switch from defense to offense under the leadership of Liu Rengui.

After the memorial was sent to Luoyang, Gaozong was so happy that he agreed to Liu Rengui's request on the spot.

In the era of cold weapons, because there was a serious lag in the transmission of information, generals who could win battles often had superhuman vision and could accurately predict the direction of the battle and make arrangements in advance, as was the case with Liu Rengui.

When he wrote the memorial to Emperor Gaozong, the Tang army had just captured Zhenxian City, but Liu Rengui judged calmly that the Baekje rebels were no longer a concern. The Tang army would eventually face the Japanese in the Korean peninsula, so they needed more water. Teacher!

Some people describe Gaozong and Yuan Shao as somewhat similar in their military strategies: they are resourceful and decisive when the wind is blowing, and they can be called an example of British masters when fighting against the wind.

Faced with Liu Rengui's request for help, Emperor Gaozong agreed without hesitation. He did not even recruit naval forces from the Jianghuai River according to the practice of the Tang Dynasty. Instead, he directly ordered Shandong to recruit 7,000 soldiers and more than 170 warships from nearby Shandong, led by Sun Renshi. Support Liu Rengui.

At the same time, Liu Rengui’s predictions about Baekje came true one by one:

Guishi Fuxin wanted to support his army and stand on his own feet, so he killed Daochen, who was determined to restore the country. Fuyu Fengzhang was unwilling to let go of power, so he took the lead and killed Guishi Fuxin in the name of treason.

The bloody storm at the top also disheartened the middle-level generals, so Baekje generals such as Hei Te Changzhi and Sha Zha Xiangru re-joined the Tang army to help Liu Rengui annihilate the Baekje rebels.

In this case, Fuyu Fengzhang could only call the Japanese army Dad: If you don't support me, I will die in front of you!

The Japanese said, brother, don't worry, our army is invincible, watch me kill through Silla from the ground and outflank the Tang army's retreat!

To put it bluntly, the Japanese pirates were guilty of their own nature. At that time, Silla had completed economic reforms and was regarded as the trade center of Northeast Asia. A large part of the reason why the Japanese army chose to march into Silla was because the nobles coveted Silla's wealth. After landing, they were like dogs. Entered the bun shop and stayed there for five months.

It was not until Liu Ingui reached the foot of Zhouliu Fortress, the temporary capital of the Baekje Restoration Army, that it became unreasonable not to support them anymore. The Japanese army, which claimed to penetrate Silla from land, suddenly remembered:

Oh, we have a boat.

In August 663, the Japanese army regrouped 37,000 men, sailed more than a thousand warships, and sent their troops north to support Buyeo Pengjang.

If Liu Rengui Cave watched the fire, he ordered Liu Renyuan and Sun Renshi to lead the army to besiege Zhouliu City for fishing and lure the Japanese to rescue.

He personally led the navy to station at the mouth of Baijiang River, preparing to feed the Japanese fish to the Japanese. Everything was ready, and he was waiting for the Japanese to come to pay their birthdays.

The first confrontation between China and Japan in history began. 】

Everyone in the Chengdu government office was eye-opening.

There are a lot of wars. Liu Bei commented with a frown.

A lot of military exploits. Zhang Fei commented with raised eyebrows.

Quite ignorant. Pang Tong raised his eyebrows and commented.

Kong Ming looked at these three people, shook his feather fan and laughed:

Now it seems that there are only two difficulties in opening up and expanding territory, one is logistics, and the other is suppression.

Yu Bucai knows a little bit about this.

Hearing this, the others pouted inwardly:

If you understand a little bit, we are all ignorant!

Pang Tong stared at Kong Ming, feeling a little worried about gain and loss for a moment.

When it comes to maneuvering between states and counties, taking advantage of the situation and winning people's hearts with comprehensive plans, he thinks he is not bad at all.

But when it comes to taking a broad view of the world and making strategic plans to stabilize people's hearts and establish governance, Kong Ming is even better.

Just as he and Yide were able to successfully break through Yangping Pass and quickly conquer Hanzhong, it was Kongming's stray horses and siege equipment that played a decisive role.

In the Jingxiang battlefield, Yun Changyuan won the battle quickly and the giant ship showed its power. The biggest relationship was still engineering ordnance.

Kong Ming's achievements may not seem to be visible at first glance, but if you look closely, you will see that Kong Ming's achievements are everywhere.

Therefore, Pang Tong felt even more vigilant for a while: If he is complacent with his current situation, he will be thrown away by Kong Ming!

Facing Pang Tong's eyes, Kong Ming smiled in relief, then looked up at the light screen thoughtfully:

This Gaozong...is quite similar to Yuan Benchu?

At this time, Kong Ming also lamented the thoughts of future generations. Two people who had nothing to do with each other could be brought together, but at a glance, it actually made sense.

Zhang Fei also understood the meaning of later generations, touched his chin and said:

The more troops we send out, the weaker we become... Isn't this the big brother?

Eldest brother is quite similar to Yuan Benchu?

Immediately, Liu Bei looked at the man who wanted to knife him and handed it to him, so Zhang Fei immediately changed his words obediently:

Uh... it's Yuan Benchu's brother Po Le, no, it's Gao Zong's brother Po Le.

Shaoqing, Zhang Fei covered his head angrily:

No matter how you say it, you get blamed, the eldest brother is so overbearing!

Liu Bei, who felt much better, stretched out and felt refreshed:

The Korean Peninsula seems to be a poor place.

From the map given by later generations, it can be vaguely seen that the Korean Peninsula is full of mountains, rivers and hills, and it is not fertile soil:

It's just that if you want to control the Japanese country, you must control this place.

Just figure it out slowly. Kong Ming concluded.

Naturally, Kong Ming of Japan had also thought about it, and the final conclusion was that there was no need to worry.

After all, now that the Han Dynasty is no longer silent, this Japanese country really has nothing to fear. After all, looking at its deeds, it is clear that the Japanese country will not be considered enlightened until around the end of the Southern and Northern Dynasties.

Kong Ming understood the complicated feelings of his descendants towards the Japanese country, but because of this, he should develop steadily, modify and build ships, survey the maritime geography, and strengthen himself.

Otherwise, if you advance rashly with Qinggong, you will want to control the entire Japanese country when you are unable to do so. If you make any mistakes, you will be raising tigers and causing trouble.

…

The complex situation on the Korean Peninsula also opened Li Shimin's eyes.

Li Zhi's decisive decision also made Li Shimin nod frequently.

At the same time, an idea popped up:

Could it be that it is a sin for my legacy to be too rich?

Gently tugging on his beard, Li Shimin understood a little bit why he didn't feel bad for selling his father's land.

He has been raised in a deep palace since he was a child. Not a single soldier was saved by him, and not a single sail or ship was built by him.

With a wave of his hand, hundreds of thousands of troops are available for deployment. In one word, thousands of sails sail across the sea to die for the Tang Dynasty.

Although it is true that Li Shimin was the Taiyuan Young Master as later generations called him, he had been in the army for several years, and he had seen how soldiers died wailing, and had experienced stalemate and deadly battles with enemy troops on a land of just tens of miles.

He will definitely tell his son about these experiences, but obviously telling them is just telling.

Perhaps the princes should really be allowed to have a real understanding of people's livelihood, Li Shimin thought.

But at the same time, Li Shimin also saw the news that Silla was prosperous.

Although the wealth of that generation is not worth mentioning to the Tang Dynasty, since it is profitable:

This wealth of Silla can also be the wealth of Tang Dynasty.

Du Ruhui also came over and looked at the map in detail, took the charcoal, drew lines between Laizhou and Japan, moved the charcoal and then connected Liaodong and Japan.

The two lines completed their intersection in Silla, so Du Ruhui also had his own opinion:

If we want to pacify the eastern border of the Tang Dynasty, it is very important to control Silla.

Moreover, Du Ruhui also saw clearly that if this kind of maritime trade route was opened and profitable, maritime merchants from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shandong would probably rush to the sea. If things go on like this, as long as the power of Tang Dynasty does not fall, the customs of this eastern border may not be the same. same.

But what are the benefits of the East China Sea that are attractive enough? Du Ruhui fell into deep thought, and then he remembered Gao Xianzhi and what Guangmu said casually at that time:

Silla maid?
