Chapter 171 The plan was disrupted, leading the army to march north! (third change)
The old man was stunned when he saw the words written by Xiao Qi.
Running the peninsula four times from south to north is not as long as running from east to west in other people's territory!
What a huge territory this is!
How could such a king be so young and lead troops to play in the dangerous sea?
So he carefully wrote to ask Xiao Qi's identity, and Xiao Qi wrote to tell him that he was the King of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the territory in the northern part of the Song Dynasty that was many times larger than their small land of Koryo was his fiefdom.
Finally, tell the old man to send someone to deliver a letter to the King of Koryo as soon as possible. Either King Yizong will come, or someone who can speak will be sent to discuss the matter of compensation for your offending our fleet this time.
The old man didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurried back and wrote a memorial to King Yizong, explaining Xiao Qi's identity and the cause of the incident, and also told Xiao Qi's request, asking King Yizong to discuss with the ministers in the court what to do .
The letter was sent to the capital of Koryo. King Yizong was shocked when he saw the memorial, and said that his brother-in-law was always causing trouble when he was in Kyoto, so he had to take this guy to the seaside to save him from provoking ministers.
That's good, the minister can't be provoked anymore, but he provoked his fleet.
Hurry up and ask your ministers to discuss how to deal with this matter.
The group of ministers discussed it for a long time, and a minister reported to him, saying that everyone in the Song Dynasty knew it, and it was fine before. All the royal families who were beaten by Dajin in these years were killed by others. We are afraid of them, so beat them !
Besides, although Dasong has a large territory, there is Dajin between us and Dasong. Would they dare to send troops from Dajin to attack us?
After hearing this, King Yizong thought it was right!
We are afraid of him!
They can only bring a few people from the sea. Come on, send troops to help me beat him!Hit him!
It's no wonder that their news was blocked, but it was also because the Song Dynasty that the Dajin did fight in the past few years fled, and because Goryeo was separated from the Dajin, there was no way to send envoys to the Song Dynasty.
At most, they are exchanging envoys with Da Jin, and the Jin people have been beaten by the Song army in the past two years, and it is impossible for the Jin people to spread such a shameful thing everywhere.
So Goryeo didn't know at all that the current Song Dynasty had become an existence on the entire western continent, and all countries were afraid of it.
In addition, they suffered a catastrophe only last year, and many people died of starvation. Other compensation is fine. If the Song army wants food for sailing, they can't get it here.
Following Yizong Wang's order, the generals below were very active in gathering their troops and gathering a large force to teach the invading Song people a lesson.
Because of the great disaster, it is now very easy for Korea to recruit soldiers, because soldiers will have food to eat. Although they can't eat enough, they don't have to worry about starving to death.
On the surface, the current Koryo Kingdom has many soldiers and generals.
Soon they gathered an army of [-] and began to march towards the place occupied by Xiao Qi in the south.
Xiao Qi and the others were not idle when they came here. Originally, he planned to occupy this place. It is not far east from here, and it is the southernmost island among the four islands of Dongying.
So he began to order people to cut down trees and build medium-sized trebuchets for land warfare.
Those catapults fixed on the ship cannot be dismantled and taken away when attacking the inland. Besides, this thing has a simple structure and is easy to build.
Because of the defense of the land periphery of the seaport here, Xiao Qi also ordered to build some more.
This is good, it was originally used to fight Japan.
These two hundred trebuchets have just been built, and dozens of them have been deployed around the port. The others have not yet been loaded onto ships.
Xiao Qi got the news that the King of Korea sent a hundred thousand troops to destroy him.
This made Xiao Qi angry.
Damn, at first I thought you had just gone through a catastrophe, so I was going to give you a size. What do you mean by sticking your heads over while licking your faces?
Don’t you think my hand is weak and it won’t hurt if I hit you on the face?
What made Xiao Qi even more frustrated was that the ship he came out this time was too small. In addition to transporting troops and food, the gunpowder and cast-iron bombs he brought were only enough to be used in one place.
Now Koryo has [-] soldiers, and fighting them by yourself will consume more than a quarter of the gunpowder pellets and cast iron bombs.
Since this King Yizong is crying and yelling to beat him up, let's use all these things here. I hope the Dongying people will appreciate you for buying them some time!
So Xiao Qi ordered that all warships, except for the gunpowder, projectiles, and cast-iron bombs that were left behind for the warships themselves, should be moved down to prepare for the northward attack.
Since these bastards came here to fight, it's not my Xiao Qi's style if they don't enjoy the fight, I hope you can resist the beating, don't be cowardly!
Those navy generals who received Xiao Qi's general order, seeing their own commander didn't know why, they all gritted their teeth when they gave the order.
But this did not delay them from understanding that it was those idiots who made their boss angry.
When they received the military order and summoned their officers to discuss matters, they all warned these men that King Zhenbei was angry, and after he turned around and started the war, I gave them his life.
No one should be lazy, otherwise don’t blame me for not recognizing others with my whip!
This group of sailors originally joined the Changsheng Battalion to kill the enemy, and some of them had been on the battlefield in the army, and they were picked out when they were carrying the sailors.
Since I came to the navy, I haven't fought a big battle. The old comrades in the Changsheng camp have fought a large area in the west, and even piled up a 10-person Beijing watch.
Their envious eyes turned green, and now that they can finally start a war, they were already suffocating and wanted to vent their anger. After being so provoked by their respective officials, they all screamed to kill each other's people.
There are hundreds of thousands of people who don't care about the other party at all. In their view, no matter how many people there are in the other party, they are all dead, and they just have a few more days to breathe.
Because there are only a hundred war horses, in order to find enough carts and animals for these catapults and artillery.
Xiao Qi ordered the one hundred scouts to be divided into two teams, each with a thousand infantry, and go out to plunder carts and various livestock, including mules, horses, cattle and donkeys, as long as they could pull the carts.
Anyway, those who still have carts and livestock at this time are either wealthy households or officials and eunuchs here. Besides, there is no scruples about the two sides going to war.
Fortunately, after Xiao Qi decided to put the battlefield here, when those [-] Korean troops arrived at the territory they occupied, hundreds of miles away.
Those soldiers who robbed carts and livestock everywhere finally grabbed more than [-] carts and enough livestock to take all the trebuchets and artillery left outside the defense.
The [-] Koryo army on the opposite side stopped moving a hundred miles away, which made Xiao Qi very puzzled. Could it be that these people ran so far for exercise?
Soon the news from their naval scouts made him understand the other party's intentions.
It turned out that the coach of the opponent, after hearing that Xiao Qi and the others only had more than 1 people, felt that Xiao Qi and the others were settled.
I was afraid that Xiao Qi and his 1 people would flee on their warships as soon as they fought with their 10 people.
He is quietly mobilizing warships to rush to the open sea here, in order to attack both sides together and kill Xiao Qi and the others.
What's more, this guy is also jealous of Xiao Qi's dozens of huge warships. If he takes these warships by himself, and with the [-] Korean troops in his hand, no one will dare to say that even if he becomes king himself What's the matter.
Xiao Qi didn't know that the opponent's general had the idea of becoming king on his own, but the opponent thought that he could kill more than 1 people like him, and wanted to snatch all those battleships, Xiao Qi could still see it.
So Xiao Qi ordered that all the warships should only be ready to face the opponent's navy, and don't start a war with the opponent, so as not to scare their navy away.
Now that you have understood the other party's intentions, you don't need to look for the other party anymore, just prepare here and wait for them to come to die.
Xiao Qi ordered that the artillery and trebuchets be set up in the direction facing the Koryo army. The gunpowder, projectiles, and cast iron bombs were well prepared, just waiting for the [-] Koryo army to rush to die.
