Chapter 1769 Battle of Cheorwon (Part 1)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Cheorwon Fortress is located to the west of the Hulu River (today's Imjin River on the Korean Peninsula). It is the leftmost left wing of the Shinban defense line and the hub of the Shinban Army and Lintun Army.  By occupying Cheorwon Castle, the connection between the Zhenfan Army and the Lintun Army can be cut off.  The Lintun Army was short of strength, so the cities east of Cheolwon became the prey of the Silla Army.

    Stationed in Tieyuan was Zhao Renji, the general of Ying Yanglang of the Sui army.

    Zhao Renji is Andal's old subordinate. He stood out during the Shunyi Army Rebellion and was a highly used Goguryeo general among the Sui Army.

    Zhao Renji was not from a very high background, he was just a concubine from a small family.  In the Sui army camp, Zhao Renji completed the change in social status, so he was extremely loyal to the Sui army.

    And these Goguryeo people who had surrendered to the Sui army would end badly after being captured by the Goguryeo Restoration Organization.  At this time, Zhao Renji only had 3,000 troops in his hands, and the defense of Cheolwon City was not relaxed.

    Because the Sui army and the German army came and went, they fought many times, and there were countless spies on the other side.  Therefore, after Zhao Renji noticed the news that the German troops were heading north, he immediately reported it to Da Xihao.

    It was reported that German troops had entered the country more than once before, but tens of thousands of people came. This was the first time since the battle of Akagi City.

    Zhao Renji¡¯s keen alertness made him feel that this matter was not simple.

    Da Xihao, who received the report from Zhao Renji, also attached great importance to reporting the German invasion.  He was often at the border between the Sui army and Silla, and he understood the importance of Cheorwon, so he strictly ordered Zhao Renji to hold on while organizing reinforcements.

    Da Xihao¡¯s Zhenfan army had more than 20,000 people, but they were mainly concentrated on the front line of Songyue City. This was the main battlefield of the stalemate between the two sides, and it was also an area tightly controlled by the Sui army.

    But just as Da Xihao was about to mobilize his troops to march eastward, a scout suddenly reported that a large number of troops had suddenly entered the Bukhan Mountain City opposite, and spies reported back. Baekje troops were also mobilized more frequently.

    Kim Baek-jeong's handing over of Bukhan Mountain City to Baekje was done in secret, and even the people inside Silla didn't know about it. It was just that the Baekje army was stationed and the Silla army withdrew its defenses. The Silla army was still branded as a sign to the outside world that it was preparing to fight against the Sui Dynasty.  The army was caught off guard.

    Da Xihao was secretly frightened by the news about Beihan Mountain City.

    BaoGerman is a dog raised by Silla people, and Da Xihao knows its purpose very well.  He originally thought that this time he was reporting another German attack, but seeing the actions of Bukhan Mountain City and the sudden tense situation in Baekje, Da Xihao guessed that both Silla and Baekje were involved in this incident.

    A good tiger cannot defeat a pack of wolves, so limited troops must be concentrated in one place.

    Da Xihao did not dare to send reinforcements to Tieyuan City for a while.  While he quickly reported the changes in Silla and Baekje to North Korea, he actively prepared for war.

    When the mountain rain is about to come, it is imminent.

    As for Tiewuan City, Da Xihao ordered Zhao Renji to hold on for fifteen days. After the fifteenth day, he could retreat on his own.  In the fifteenth day, the reinforcements from Joseon City should be able to rush to Cheorwon, and at the very least, they can protect the left wing of the Shinban Army.

    As for the Lintun Army on the other side of Tieyuan City, Da Xihao had no hope.

    The strength of the Lintun Army was originally insufficient, and the banditry within the territory was serious.  Although the situation on Li Jin's side is unclear now, it is expected that he will be restrained by the Silla people and will have no time to rescue Cheolwon City.

    Although Da Xihao¡¯s prediction was not completely correct, it was almost the same.  In fact, Cheorwon City was a bait set by Jin Baijing for the Sui army to attack the German army. On both sides of the German army, the Silla army followed closely. Whether it was Da Xihao or Li Jin who rescued them, they would  He fell into the trap of the Silla people who surrounded the area to fight for reinforcements.

    ¡°And Jin Baijing also designed a chain plan this time.

    Once the Sui army moves, both Songyue City and Buer City will be left empty.  The Baekje people who gathered in Bukhansanseong and the Silla people who gathered in Hasola City (today's Gangneung City, South Korea) were able to take advantage of the opportunity and enter the hinterland of Nakrang County.

    Once the Silla people succeed, the Sui army's defense line on the southern front will be torn to pieces by the opponent. By the time the Sui army's Liaodong reinforcements arrive, the Baekje and Silla people have already established a firm foothold there.  , turning defense into offense.

    Jin Baijing handed over Bukhan Mountain City to Baekje, and also promised to hand over the most fertile land south of Beishui to Baekje after the war. In fact, he did not have any good intentions. He actually hoped that Baekje and the Sui army reinforcements would be the main force to fight.  In this way, both sides will suffer losses, so that he can benefit from the situation.  He has not forgotten how his ancestors deceived the Baekje people.

    At this time, Da Xihao was unable to support Cheelwon City, and Zhao Renji had to bear all the pressure.

    Gao Baobao led his army to Tieyuan City and immediately sent envoys to the city to persuade them to surrender.  Although Zhao Renji often broke into the hinterland of Niu Shou City and slapped Gao Baobao's face to pieces, he was a Goguryeo after all. Gao Baobao hoped that the army would suppress the border and force Zhao Renji to surrender, which would also save him an attack.The power of ??.

    It¡¯s a pity that Gao Baobao picked the wrong person.

    It¡¯s true that Cho In-ki is from Goguryeo, but he doesn¡¯t have much affection for Goguryeo.  Moreover, Zhao Renji also understood the situation of reporting to Germany and was not optimistic about Gao Baobao, the puppet king.  If he had to surrender as a last resort, he would only surrender to Silla, not Gao Baobao.

    So in order to boost morale, Zhao Renji directly took the envoys who were trying to persuade the Germans to surrender to the top of the city and chopped off their heads in front of everyone to show that he would not surrender.

    Gao Baobao was so angry that he cursed eight generations of Zhao Renji's ancestors.

    Zhao Renji was not unambiguous. He stood at the top of the city and shouted loudly: "My dear Gao Baobao, if you have the courage, you can come and watch me chop off your head." Zhao Renji was brave and courageous, which raised the morale of his soldiers.

    "good!"

    "General Zhao is mighty!"

    With a series of performances, Zhao Renji won the trust of the Han soldiers in the army.

    All armies in Lelang were composed of Han and Chinese soldiers, but Han troops still accounted for the majority.  Although Zhao Renji is the commander-in-chief of the army, if he wants to surrender, the soldiers of the three armies will not agree. This is why Zhao Renji and Gao Baobao started a war of words.

    No matter what, first gain the trust of your subordinates.

    There was a verbal spat between the two sides, and Gao Baobao was humiliated.  The furious Gao Baobao immediately ordered an attack on Tiewuan City.

    Although Germany is a puppet and the power is controlled by the Silla people, the army is still elite.  Because the people who returned to Germany were basically the survivors of Goguryeo, and the army was mainly composed of remnants of Goguryeo. As for the generals who escaped to fight against the Sui Dynasty, most of them were capable people, so the combat effectiveness of the German army was not weak.

    Gao Baobao organized the best of the Goguryeo survivors who had defected to him into an army, named the "Rejuvenation Army", which was the capital of his establishment.  In order to attack Tiewuan City this time, in order to show his determination and to compete for the spoils after the war, Gao Baobao personally supervised the battle and led the Restoration Army to take the lead.

    Flags are flying, war drums are thundering.

    Three thousand versus twenty thousand, a difficult battle began in Tiewuan City.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
