Dou Jiande turned his head and looked at it, and saw that it was Zhang Xuansu and asked, "Zhang Aiqing, what are the advantages of you?"

Zhang Xuansu bowed and said, "Report to Your Majesty, the soldiers of Li Chongjiu in Youzhou are brave and have the danger of Yan Yun. Our army is not sure of victory. You might as well force the army to Shandong. Shandong's rebellion is like Wang Bo, Xu Yuanlang, Qi Gongshun, and Zang Junxiang is just a dog guarding the household, and the mediocre people have no ambition to compete for the world. Once our army arrives, these people can only surrender..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Xuansu paused and said, "I heard that it is easy first but difficult. If there is a wife in Youzhou, you will get the Xi tribe as a supporter. The attack is harmful but not profitable. Even if you destroy Youzhou, you will have to face the Turks. If the wife is harassed by the Xi tribe, it is better to protect Youzhou, first destroy Shandong, and then advance northwards by the heroes in Hebei."

Dou Jiande listened to Zhang Xuansu's words and said, "Zhang Aiqing is a loyal minister. These words are all about planning for me. It is not that I don't want to take Shandong, but that I can't. At present, Wang Bo, Xu Yuanlang, and Qi Gongshun have all subdued Li Tang. If I attack Shandong, I will have a feud with Li Tang."

Zhang Xuansu stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, Shandong communicates with the north and south, which is the gateway to Hebei. It is the place to sleep in Daxia. Li Tang is in Guanzhong and is far away from Shandong. How could Your Majesty let Li Tang make the place to sleep in a side room? This minister is so sad."

"Zhang Huangmen's words are wrong," Wang Cong said, "My main opponent at Daxia is Youzhou. If you attack Shandong and get along with Li Tang again, wouldn't it be wise?"

Wang Cong continued to say: "Now our army is rising sharply, with strong troops and strong horses. We should take advantage of the situation to fight. What Zhang Huangmen said is easy to start and then difficult to eliminate the heroes in Shandong. Therefore, although it is easy, the soldiers are exhausted. The difficulty is beyond the future. Isn't it the last teacher and old man who has no merits?"

Kong Deshao, the Minister of Inner History, said: "When Li Yuan is three points today, he has one. He is strong and strong. He is really not to compete for the enemy. If our army does not defeat Li Chongjiu and seize Youzhou in one day, he cannot be enemies with Li Tang in one day."

This statement represents the opinions of most civil officials. Seeing this irreversible, Zhang Xuansu sighed and said: The land of Youzhou is flat, and Li Chongjiu also has the advantage of light cavalry. Although there are few soldiers, they should not be underestimated. Your Majesty is determined to use troops to Youzhou. You must be cautious and not advance rashly."

Dou Jiande smiled and said, "I will know it."

Now the generals have no objection to the advance to Youzhou.

Dou Jiande finally made a decision and said, "Jack Zhang said just now that Shandong is a place to sleep, and Youzhou is also a place to sleep, so the decisive battle with Youzhou is imperative. Even without the support of the Lu family, this will not stop me from unifying the world."

All the generals are now calling it together.

September is already the time for the clear and refreshing autumn.

Jin Chunqiu, Kongshan and Yuanxiao, and the other three had led a thousand Silar Hualang Army and Han soldiers, forming a soldier from the mouth of Sancha River.

Not long ago, Li Chongjiu had just approved the combat plan for their rescue of Silla. The three of them were very happy, but they did not expect that under such a difficult situation, Li Chongjiu still agreed to them to march into Liaodong.

According to the combat plan, at that time, Cui Xu, Ding's troops, dispatched more than 3,000 Ding's soldiers to cross the Liao River to attack the villages of Goguryeo. With the help of Cui Xu's troops, Jin Chunqiu and others will lead these thousand soldiers, as well as nearly two thousand navy troops in Goguryeo and Youzhou, to form a joint fleet of 35 warships, and land in Liaodong.

This time their goal is Beisha City, Liaodong.

The sea breeze was gushing, carrying a fleet of more than 3,000 people from Silla and Youzhou, a fleet of more than 3,000 people began to anchor and head for Liaodong.

The waters from Sancha River mouth to Liaodong are very difficult. In ancient times, people who went out to sea always regarded this as a difficult and dangerous situation. Therefore, when the Sui Navy conquered Goguryeo, Donglai County was always used as an anchor point. However, in order to seek help, the Sillas sent ships to trial this waters many times. After boats were destroyed and overturned, a relatively safe waterway was opened between Sanhekou and Silla.

More than 30 warships advanced forward in the dark Bohai Bay.

Jin Chunqiu stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the sea. As the Silla prince, he came to Youzhou far away from his hometown to take refuge. Now, in the royal family, the heroine is in power. In order to ensure that her daughter comes to power, King Shinping will inevitably cleanse her dissidents and help her consolidate her position. At that time, he will only have a dead end to stay in Silla.

When the ferry came to Youzhou, although he lost the honor of the prince, he gained the freedom of ordinary people. After all, King Zhenping was old and the heroine was powerless. With a strong enemy like Goguryeo, a powerful king in the country must revitalize Goguryeo.

Now that he has come to Youzhou, he will perform well in this sneak attack on Beisha City. He will not only gain the trust of Li Chongjiu, but also gain the appreciation of ministers in the Silla dynasty. At that time, he will be very helpful for him to return to Silla ascend the throne.

Jin Chunqiu took a deep breath and returned from his thoughts. He knew that it was too long to think about it. Without conquering Beisha City, there was no way to start. At present, he must cultivate his trusted forces in the army and build a strong army. With his own team, everything is the basis.

Jin Chunqiu remembered that before going to the battle, Li Chongjiu sent him out of the Jixian gate.

At that time, Li Chongjiu personally told himself: "The first priority to attack Beisha City this time is to capture this city and wipe out the Goguryeo defenders, so that the Goguryeo people know that the existence of our navy forces have to strengthen the defense of cities and cities along the coast and restrain their troops."

Jin Chunqiu replied at that time: "Report to Duke Shanggu, I have already inquired. Three years ago, General Laihu'er had just conquered Beisha City and beheaded more than a thousand times. Now the defenders are definitely not as good as they were at that time. Although our army only has three thousand people this time, it will definitely be successful in the surprise attack."

After hearing his answer, Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "This is the best. The following is the second priority I talked to you, it's up to you to decide."

"Report to Mr. Shanggu, what is your own decision?"

Li Chongjiu said, "The battlefield changes rapidly, so there is a reason why the general is not allowed to be ordered by the outside king. I went to Liaodong to take a boat trip for several days, and then passed by land. If there is military information, how can it reach my ears? So if things change, in order not to miss the situation, I will grant you the right to be arbitrary on the spot."

"Please ask Shanggu to make an announcement?"

Li Chongjiu said, "This is my second priority. If you can successfully conquer Beisha City and feel that you can defend it, then defend it. If you think Goguryeo is powerful, you see that there is a place in the south of the island called Duli Town, which is the best good harbor. You can lead your army to garrison here and build a city to defend it. In the future, I will make a transit place for my merchant ships in Youzhou and Silla. In the future, I will let you guard it here."

Thinking of this, Jin Chunqiu still remembers the shock at that time, which means that Li Chongjiu gave up the town as a general and held great power in his hand. As he gradually approached his destination, Jin Chunqiu knew that everything would start from this Beisha City trial, otherwise there would be no way to talk about it.

"How far is it from the docking?" Jin Chunqiu asked.

Yuan Xiao pinched the Buddhist beads on the side and said, "Based on the last time Hu'er attacked Beisha City by the Han Dynasty, the chart obtained by Hu'er, is close to him. I heard that this chart is hard to come by."

"How is the situation of the soldiers?"

"Some Han troops were seasick, but there was no major trouble," said Yuan Xiaoyan. "The Youzhou navy was not as good as our Silla navy. It was obviously because of the new group."

Jin Chunqiu said: "The navy can't be easily created. The navy forces following us to go to sea have ten years of experience in Shanghai, so they can get the rudder in the storm of strong winds and waves. If the Youzhou navy wants to become the elite navy army that came to Hu'er back then, is it still far from it?"

"That's right," said Yuan Xiaoyan, "I have sent people to supervise these Han navy troops on every ship. These days have grown more than the first day of departure."

Jin Chunqiu nodded and said, "Of course, Mr. Uegu trusts me so much and regards me Silla as his brother's country. Of course, we must find a way to repay him."

"Of course, we Silla people always repay kindness."

"See the land!"

"See the land!"

The soldiers on the bow couldn't help but cheer. After several days of sailing, they had arrived at their destination.

Yuanxiao took the chart, compared the location below, and said happily to Jin Chunqiu: "Your Highness, we have arrived south of Beisha City, here."

Jin Chunqiu glanced at the map, couldn't help but smile, and said, "Very good, we started from here and sent a sampan to select the beach to land."

In Youzhou City.

Li Chongjiu was sitting in the hall, and the letter was the battle report of the navy conquering Beisha City five days ago. Jin Chunqiu conquered Beisha City for the second time with a thunderous momentum.

After the Goguryeo army resisted for a while, the city fell, and more than two thousand soldiers and civilians in the city surrendered. In the letter, Jin Chunqiu said that he was going to retreat to Duli Town to defend, so he burned the Beisha City with a fire.

After hearing the news, Li Chongjiu felt a stone falling in his heart. He did not choose the wrong person. This Taizong of Silla people in history was really decisive. After conquering Beisha City, he could not be greedy, and indeed give up, and retreated closer to the sea and was easy to stick to Duli Town.

Among the three kingdoms of the peninsula, the navy was the strongest, followed by Silla, while the Goguryeo navy had only sailing on rivers, and there were almost no navy on the sea. Even if there were some, they were still in the three expeditions of Liaodong, and were brought to the Great Sui navy of Zhou Fashang and the two men cleaned up.

As the pinnacle of the Liaodong Peninsula, conquering Duli Town is equivalent to worry-free on all sides of the sea, just need to defend the land side.

Li Chongjiu seemed to remember that hundreds of years later, on this scattered island on the Liaodong Peninsula, Mao Wenlong led his tens of thousands of Dongjiang troops to stubbornly harasse the rear of the Qing Dynasty with the help of the islands on the Liaodong Peninsula.

But for Li Chongjiu, this is just a transit station for merchant ships in Youzhou in Silla. If the time is ripe in the future, a fleet of thousands of large ships will appear on this sea surface, sweeping across the Korean Peninsula and even the Japanese in the east.
