Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Distant water cannot quench the near thirst, so although Liaodong has sent troops to rescue, the Sui army on the Lelang Peninsula still has to retreat.

    Throughout March, Lelang's army retreated again and again, almost as if they were fleeing in large strides towards Korea City.  Every Sui army member who left had tears in his eyes, his heart was cut by a knife, and he was reluctant to leave.  After fighting for so many years, I have never felt so useless as now.

    Many Goguryeo people who had defected to the Sui army were horrified when they saw the Sui army retreating.  Many people cried and begged, hoping that Sui Jun would not leave.

    Ban Jin, the general who was stationed in Tunyou City, wanted to leave from Daifang City (today's Shaliyuan City, North Korea). The big families and common people in the city begged Ban Jin not to leave.  Sun Li, the chief secretary of Daifang County, shouted loudly: "If the general leaves Tuenyou, we will definitely be slaughtered by Gao Rennan and his like. I really don't want to die in humiliation at the hands of Gao Rennan." So that day.  He drew his sword in front of the Sui army and killed himself.

    People all over the city cried loudly at the city gate, and some people even took Ban Jin's hand and said, "We rely on Sui Dynasty, just like a child relies on his parents. You must not go back." Some people even came forward and hugged Ban Jin.  The horse's legs are hard to retain.

    There were cries inside and outside the city, and all the soldiers of the three armies were moved.

    Some soldiers of the Sui army even came forward and begged Ban Jin to stay. They would rather die than die with the common people.

    Ban Jin was also in a dilemma. The military orders were like mountains and he really couldn't disobey them.  But if they leave like this, the people in the city will lose their hearts as to how they will view the Sui army.

    So Ban Jin asked his lieutenant to leave with the army, while he stayed in Daifang City.  At this moment, he had no choice but to die for his country.

    Stories like this happened everywhere. In late March, the troops finally rushed back to North Korea. Huang Mingli finally took back the punches he had made after giving up the Sui Dynasty's many years of business results in Lelang Peninsula.  return.

    By this time, Huang Mingli had received news that Seoul had fallen and Hou Kai, Song Chuan and others were martyred.  Hou Kai and Song Chuan were the highest-ranking civilian officials and military generals killed in the Sui army since the war began.  This battle was a heavy loss. Several mid-level generals and civil servants above the county magistrate level were killed at once, something Huang Mingyuan had never experienced since he entered Liaodong.

    However, regarding this matter, Huang Mingli could only grit his teeth and endure it. Seoul was too far away and he couldn't care about it. He could only take revenge in the future.

    Si minus 75zhongwen.com Si.  But blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone.

    For the Sui Army these days, there was bad news everywhere and letters asking for help. The Sui Army was a little numb to such a result.

    Everyone was waiting agonizingly for the arrival of the Liaodong army, but a battle report at the end of March still made Huang Mingli and Fang Xuanling feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

    On March 26, the third formation of the Liaodong Navy stationed in Cicada City was attacked by the main force of the Baekje Navy and suffered heavy losses.

    After the garrison in Zhanchan County evacuated Zhanchan City, the city was handed over to the third division of the Liaodong Navy stationed in the port.  The third formation has more than 3,000 sailors and more than 150 large and small ships.  Except for twelve battleships and twenty frigates, the rest are mostly transport ships.

    The navy of Goguryeo was not strong, and the navy of the Sui army did not fight any large-scale naval battles. Generally, the navy was used as a transport force to transport soldiers and food.

    But in this era, the navy is originally an auxiliary force.  Judging from the Goguryeo navy, the navy of Silla and Baekje should not be very powerful.

    The third formation seems to have 3,000 men, and it is at sea all year round, so its combat strength is not weak. However, in fact, with twelve large ships and twenty small ships, the number of combat troops is only half of the entire army, and the remaining more than a hundred ships  They are all transport ships, so a naval battle is impossible.  This is not so much a fleet as a maritime transport fleet.

    The third sub-formation has at most more than thirty fire boats, equivalent to thirty suicide weapons.  In the final analysis, the Liaodong Navy has almost never conducted large-scale naval battles, and lacks sufficient understanding of sea control. They have a biased positioning of themselves.

    More than thirty warships are enough to deal with some pirates, but they are far from enough to deal with the maritime coalition forces of Baekje and Japan.

    Whether it is Baekje or Wa, their naval power and naval development awareness are completely different from Goguryeo.

    Baekje is a peninsula country and Wa is an island country.  TwoSince both cities are close to the sea and have many seaports, they naturally need to develop maritime power.  Goguryeo's main expansion direction was on the western and northern fronts, fighting fierce battles with mountain tribes, nomadic tribes, and the Sui army, and did not need a navy.

    Under Baekje¡¯s many years of management, it has a considerable naval force on hand.

    The commander of the third division of the Liaodong Navy of the Sui Army was Huyalang General Gao Wen, a native of Jiangdu.

    After the Lelang War broke out, Gawain ordered the navy to gather the transport ships into the port, while the warships deployed defenses along the Xishui River.  Especially after the fall of Seoul, Gawain ordered the fleet to deploy at the intersection of Daishui and Xishui to prevent the enemy from moving north along Daishui.  After all, Xishui will be the front line from now on.

    As for the sea, Gawain really didn¡¯t have too many defenses.

    After Huang Mingli fell in Haiming County, he wrote to Gao Wen. Judging from the current intelligence, the enemy should have a naval force that could land from the sea. The third sub-formation must be on guard to prevent the enemy from raiding from the sea.  ,

    Although Gawain also attached great importance to this order, he was unable to carry out maritime defense due to insufficient troops, so in the end he concentrated his troops on the river.

    In Gawain¡¯s view, the enemy army may indeed come from the sea, but this possibility is not high.  When marching on the sea, it is difficult to even identify the direction. It is also very difficult for the Sui Dynasty to transport tens of thousands of troops at one time.  Moreover, he has already deployed defenses at Xishuikou. When the enemy navy arrives, he can detect it in advance.

    Even if you are really invincible, you can still avoid battle and save the ship.

    ¡°In the final analysis, in Gao Wen¡¯s view, the navy is still just a transport force, and the enemy navy¡¯s surprise attack is just a transport of infantry to attack Pyongyang City.  Cognitive errors led to errors in his decision-making, and also led to the ultimate bitter consequences.

    Mi He 75zhongwen.com Mi.  At this time, Qiwei, who had captured Seoul, did not immediately take the initiative to attack after winning a hard-fought victory. Instead, he ordered his navy to sneak attack the Sui army's occupied Cicada Port.

    The bitter battle in Seoul allowed Qiwei to see the fighting power of the Sui army.  After days of hard fighting and huge casualties, he did not dare to go north for a decisive battle with the Sui army, but he wanted to seize as much territory as possible, so he diverted to the west of the river.

    However, west of Dai Shui there are mostly cities close to the sea. The Sui army's navy in Zhanchan watched the cities on both sides like a nail.

    Qiwei was worried that if he rushed to attack the city, the Sui army's navy would take his retreat at any time, just like he had done with the Sui army before, so he was ready to take the initiative to completely destroy the Sui army's maritime power
