Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

Chapter 488 2-way attack, conquer the sea

Back in Qizhou, Li You immediately summoned all the capable generals under his command.

At this moment, besides Li You's Mou Bin and Yu Huatian from Jinyiwei, Zhou Huai'an from Qizhou Governor's Mansion, and Changshi warrior Xun, there is also a lean man.

This person is Liu Rengui, the admiral who Li You specially poached from Chencang County.

In the past few years, Li You and Shence Mansion have invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the transformation of warships, and the training of the navy has been completely handed over to Liu Rengui.

At first, Liu Rengui also had some doubts about Li You's decision.

After all, although he has been an official for many years, he has confidence in his martial arts and military skills, but it is the first time to train the navy.

But under Li You's encouragement, Liu Rengui burst out with infinite potential, and in just a few years, he trained the Laizhou Navy into an invincible sea lion.

Now, when Li You said that he was going to cross the sea to fight, Liu Rengui suddenly regained his spirits.

"My lord, I promise to live up to your expectations."

"Goguryeo's coastline is completely undefended to me."

However, Li You reminded: "I have no doubts about your ability and the strength of the Laizhou Navy."

"But there is one thing I need to remind you, our enemies are not only from land."

"Sometimes, it is also very important to keep an eye on your back at all times."

Through Jin Yiwei's information, Li You has discovered some hidden signs. If there are other enemies behind the Three Kingdoms, it must be the Wonu Kingdom.

Although the quality of the Japanese navy is no match for the Tang army, the Japanese navy has a large number. If it is attacked by him, it will be a troublesome matter.

After Li You finished giving instructions, Liu Ji asked, "My lord, which way are you going for the two armies?"

Li You chuckled and said, "Although we attacked suddenly this time, after dividing the troops, we can divide them into one light and one dark."

"This king naturally goes to the most dangerous place, so this king will go with the navy."

"At that time, the land route will have to rely on Bowen."

We must know that the reason why Goguryeo was able to preserve the country under the three attacks of Emperor Sui Yang was not only because of the persistence, but also because of the conspiracy of these Goguryeo people.

In order to delay the siege of the army, Goguryeo went down to the generals and went up to the king, and it was not once or twice that they feigned surrender.

Therefore, after weighing things up, Li You still felt that he should board the battleship and fight across the sea.

It was the first time to go out to sea by boat, facing the boundless sea, Li You was also very excited.

Although the Laizhou navy was formed under Li You's personal supervision, this was actually the first time Li You saw so many warships set off at the same time.

Such a scene of thousands of sails competing is completely different from the feeling of stopping at the port, and it even arouses the pride and ambition in Li You's heart.

Li You picked up the loudspeaker in his hand and shouted loudly: "Everyone in the Great Tang Navy, the opportunity to make contributions is at hand."

"Tomorrow night, this king would like to invite everyone to dinner in Pyongyang City, is that okay?"

Facing Li You's rhetoric, the sailors did not hesitate at all, and shouted "OK" three times in a row!
Then, amidst the applause, the Datang navy headed towards Pyongyang.

At the same time, in the mansion of Gaisuwen in Pyongyang city, Gaisuwen, the official of Goguryeo, was meeting with a noble guest from the east.

If Li You were here at this moment, he would have recognized immediately that the person sitting in front of Gai Suwen was Wang Gui's youngest son Wang Jingzhi.

In the previous liquidation operation against the Wang family, as Wang Gui's youngest son, although Wang Jingzhi was also the key target of investigation, he was lucky enough to escape Jin Yiwei's eyes and ears because he was sent out by Wang Gui to carry out a secret mission.

After witnessing the rapid decline of the Taiyuan Wang family, Wang Jingzhi fled to Goguryeo with the help of his family in order to avoid the pursuit of the court.

Although the power of the Wang family in the Central Plains was less than one-twelfth of what it was at its peak, centipedes were dead but not stiff, and skinny camels were fatter than horses. Wang Jingzhi still gained a very high status in Goguryeo.

Especially Gai Suwen, in order to cope with Datang's expedition, even invited Wang Jingzhi as the guest of honor, and would discuss many issues with him.

At the same time, Wang Jingzhi did not disappoint Gai Suwen's love.

He not only helped Gai Suwen understand the situation in the Tang Dynasty through the channels of the Wang family in the Central Plains, but also gave a lot of pertinent opinions on the situation in Goguryeo.

This time, Gai Suwen was able to take power ahead of schedule, thanks to Wang Jingzhi's contribution.

At this time, the news came that [-] mixed cavalry from Qizhou had crossed the Liaohe River and were rapidly attacking Pyongyang. Gai Suwen, who was taken aback, immediately called Wang Jingzhi to inquire about the situation.

Wang Jingzhi also just received the news, and immediately said worriedly: "Master Quan, I'm afraid we will encounter more difficulties this time than we imagined."

Gai Suwen didn't understand why Wang Jingzhi was so nervous when there were only 2 people.

"Wang, this time the Tang army is only 2 people. I think it is a forward force."

"Don't look at their appearance that they will not give up until they reach Pyongyang, but I don't think it will be long before they will go back in despair after bluffing."

"The focus of our defense should be on Li Ji's army."

In Gai Suwen's view, a mere 2 people is nothing to be afraid of. The reason why he came straight to Wang Jing today was because he wanted to find a way to eat up the 2 people and teach Tang Jun a lesson.

However, Wang Jingzhi said with a serious face: "Master Quan, I don't think this matter is so simple!"

"Do you know who the coach of these 2 people is?"

Gai Suwen naturally knew something about the troops crossing the border.

"The leader of the army is called Xue Rengui. I heard that he is a strong general. In the previous wars, he had a good record of entering the enemy's camp alone and disrupting the opponent's deployment."

"It can be said that he is only the first brave general of the Tang army after Yuchi Jingde."

"However, I heard that this person is arrogant and self-willed. Although he is brave, he is only a warrior."

"According to the analysis, this time he will start the attack with only 2 people. It is very likely that he is eager to make contributions."

"I think soon, Tang Jun, who discovered this situation, will stop his behavior and order him to retreat or stay where he is."

It has to be said that without Li You's plan, Gai Suwen's analysis would be reasonable.

So the current Gai Suwen is not nervous at all.

On the contrary, Gai Suwen is still planning how to take advantage of this crisis and find a way to allow himself to control more power.

However, Wang Jingzhi shook his head and said, "Lord Quan, this matter is not as simple as you imagined."

"According to family information, the 2 people led by Xue Rengui are not from the original frontier garrison, but from Qingzhou and Mizhou. These two places are under the jurisdiction of Li You, the governor of Qizhou."

Originally, Gai Suwen was worried about Wang Jingzhi's reminder, but after hearing Li You's name, he suddenly laughed.
