Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zhou Hao's Chinese army was the main force of this expedition, with a total of 180,000 people.  It took this huge team another five days to completely cross the Evergreen Mountains and enter Korea.

    Before the Chinese army had completely crossed the Evergreen Mountains, the forward selection battalion, as the forward, had already started its first battle.  With the sacrifice of hundreds of soldiers, a small city - Chushan City was captured.

    This Chushan City is close to Changqing Mountain. Although the city is small, it guards the main transportation route between Beiyan and Gaoli.

    The Selected Front Battalion was able to capture Chushan City in one fell swoop. Fortunately, Goryeo had always been lax in war preparations, and the walls of Chushan City were nothing more than low earth walls more than ten feet high.  After being occupied by the Fuso people, it was not significantly repaired, and only two thousand Fuso soldiers were stationed for defense.

    After a fierce bombardment by the ballistas and catapults of the Selected Front Battalion, a large section of the low earth wall collapsed in an instant.  Twenty thousand soldiers from the selected vanguard camp poured into Chushan City like a tide, just like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. They killed the two thousand Fusang defenders who resisted and won the first victory of the expedition to Goryeo!

    Although the Fusang people have an army of one million, they only have less than 300,000 elites capable of fighting.  After Goryeo was destroyed, the Fusang people burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil on this land, forcing the Goryeo stickmen to a desperate situation and had to rise up to resist the brutal Fusang people.

    As the saying goes, if a rabbit is anxious, it will bite!  The Korean people, who were on the verge of national subjugation and genocide, had to show the courage to resist, and the sounds of riots continued one after another.

    The Fusang people, who were immersed in the effortless victory over the Goryeo Kingdom, were caught off guard by these riots and resistance, and sent troops everywhere to suppress them.  But just as the riots here were suppressed, they broke out again elsewhere.  The Fusang people were in a hurry and were unable to defend themselves against Beiyan's attack.

    The Chinese army led by Xue Wanche entered Chushan City to rest for a few days. Follow-up troops and baggage arrived one after another. The small Chushan City could not accommodate it, and most of the soldiers had to camp outside the city.

    In addition to the Central Army, the 70,000 Left Army, which attacked from the north, and the 70,000 Right Army, which attacked from the south, also received good news.  The left route army has occupied Musan Castle, and the right route army has also occupied Yizhou Castle.

    At this point, all three armies entered Goryeo and occupied the bridgehead.

    The army in the middle route was of course the main force of the expedition. After resting for three days, Xue Wanche personally led an army of 180,000 troops and marched straight into Pingcheng.

    Although the Goryeo Kingdom was small, it had three capitals, namely Pingcheng, Kaesong and Handu.

    Pyongseong is the largest and most important city in northern Goryeo, and Fusang people also attach great importance to it.

    If Pingcheng is lost, it will be difficult for the Fuso people to gain a foothold in the entire northern Goryeo.  After learning that the Northern Yan army had invaded Goryeo, the Fusang people quickly mobilized their troops and generals, ignoring the resistance of the Goryeo people, and mobilized heavy troops to defend Pingcheng.

    The Chinese army led by Xue Wanche encountered almost no decent resistance along the way.  During the journey of more than 600 miles from Chushan to Pingcheng, there were more than ten cities, large and small, all of which could be defeated in one attack.

    In less than ten days, in addition to the 20,000 people left to guard various cities, the remaining 160,000 troops had already reached the gates of Pingcheng and surrounded Nuoda.

    A series of easy victories filled the entire expeditionary army with the joy of victory and disdain for the Fuso people.  This feeling of underestimating the enemy gradually spread, and even many generals believed that they would be able to drive the Fuso people into the sea within two months!

    ?¡­

    And Zhou Hao, who has been following Xue Wanche, has not won a fight at all in these ten days.  Often before Xue Wanche's command flag arrived, the vanguard had already captured the city and began to clean up the battlefield.

    This makes Zhou Hao quite anxious!

    "If this continues, where can I find my military exploits?" Zhou Hao stood in Xue Wanche's handsome tent as a guard, but his mind was already wandering to where he was.

    From the time of the expedition to now, almost a month has passed.  This month, Zhou Hao still didn't give up on cultivating his inner strength and practiced diligently every night.  The internal energy in the dantian has grown from the thickness of a thumb to the size of more than half an egg, which has doubled.

    Now Zhou Hao can barely shoot two formation arrows, and he is a big step closer to activating the Three Talents Formation of Heaven and Earth.  But Zhou Hao was really frustrated because he couldn't win any battles.

    Xue Wanche was sitting in the commander's tent, his face as calm as water, holding a book of war, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking like he was extremely devoted.

    Anyone who knows Xue Wanche knows that General Xue seems to be full of gangsterism, and his temper can explode at the slightest moment.  But the closer the war approached, the calmer and more steady he became.

    Noticing that Zhou Hao, who was standing in front of him, was frowning at his luck, Xue Wanche said calmly: "Haozi, I haven't made any achievements in the past few days."??Aren't you a little impatient?  "

    Zhou Hao grinned: "General, can you even see this?"

    "I have been fighting for more than 20 years. How come you can't see this little thought?"

    "General, you see I have nothing to do if I stay with you, you might as well put me in the forward selection camp!"

    "You kid, you're still too young! This battle has just begun. The big and tough battles are still to come. Why are you so anxious? When the time comes, your military exploits will be indispensable!"

    "Oh, really?" When Zhou Hao heard this, he felt happy.

    "We will attack Pingcheng tomorrow. According to the spies' reports, there are at least 100,000 Fusang defenders gathered in Pingcheng, and most of them are elite troops who have fought in hundreds of battles! 160,000 vs. 100,000. Although we have more people than Fusang, we are the attackers.  One side of the city. Without a bloody battle, I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t win it. All you have to do is follow me tomorrow, and I¡¯ll ensure that you get a lot of military exploits!¡±

    "General, do you have to go into battle in person tomorrow?" Zhou Hao said in a daze.

    "It's been a long time since I've encountered such a powerful enemy. I'm interested in going into battle to kill the enemy myself. How can I not go up and do some activities?" Xue Wanche said with a gleam in his eyes.

    Hearing Xue Wanche¡¯s words, Zhou Hao was not worried but happy. There will be a big battle tomorrow. This is undoubtedly a good opportunity to gain military exploits!

    "Okay, you have nothing to do here, you kid, go back and sleep! Be energetic, don't lose my face tomorrow!" Xue Wanche waved his hand.

    Zhou Hao chuckled and walked out of Xue Wanche's handsome tent.

    Taking a deep breath of the cold air, Zhou Hao calmed down his excitement slightly while standing on the hillside where the handsome tent was.

    Looking up, the moon is bright tonight and there are few stars. Tomorrow may be a rare good weather in winter.

    Then he turned his head and looked into the distance.  Under the night, on the snow-capped land, there are tents as far as the eye can see, extending all the way to the bottom of Pingcheng City!

    Countless bonfires are burning in the night, adding a touch of warmth to the freezing winter nights.  Countless soldiers rubbed their hands, jumped their feet, and chatted around the campfire to keep warm.

    The flags fluttering carelessly in the cold wind include the violent bear flag of the Liaodong Army, the double-headed eagle flag of the Youzhou Army, the Panlong flag of the Yizhou Army, the winged white tiger flag of the Jizhou Army, and the flag of the Lujun Army.  Xuanwu flag and so on.

    And far out of sight, Pingcheng lies on the side of the Datong River, like a monster in the dark, waiting for the sun to rise, ready to devour countless flesh and bones.

    The tranquility before the war is the most touching!  The scene in front of him made Zhou Hao involuntarily feel a surge of pride in his chest.

    "I just don't know, among the hundreds of thousands of Northern Yan soldiers, which ones will be able to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds tomorrow, and which ones will be buried in horse leather?"
