Chapter 559: The Counterattack Begins

According to the real history, the Lelang part of the Han Dynasty directly bordered the Korean Peninsula. Moreover, Lelang County directly cut off the land transportation channel between Goguryeo and the Korean Peninsula. However, in Beacon, in order to adapt to the division between countries and regions, the system has carried out large-scale magic changes to the geography.

First of all, Lelang County was moved to the left, the Korean Peninsula was moved to the right, and Goguryeo was moved downward and horizontally, and the two were separated through Goguryeo. And the so-called Dragon Roaring Mountain Range is also a product of the system's magical transformation. In reality, there is no corresponding mountain range at all.

Strictly speaking, the Longhou Mountains are within the territory of Goguryeo, but the side of Goguryeo adjacent to the Korean Peninsula is very barren, and there is no large-scale population gathering at all. Therefore, the Goguryeo Kingdom of all dynasties did not pay much attention to the land in the east of the Longhou Mountains.

After crossing this barren land, they entered the North Korean area.

In the eyes of the players, the Longhou Mountains are the real border between the Huaxia District and the Korean District, which is why the players and Yanhuang reacted so violently after Pu Yin sent troops across the Longhou Mountains.

The Longhou Mountains start from the Korean Sea in the south and stretch for tens of thousands of miles to the north. The northern end is probably at the location of Yanji in reality. However, in the game, the north of the Dragon Roar Grand Canyon is an uninhabited barren area, and there is no real city.

And the entire Longhou Mountain Range has an average width of more than five hundred miles. Among them, mountains and forests are densely covered, exotic flowers and fruits, poisonous snakes and beasts emerge in endlessly. Monster beasts, ferocious beasts, and spirit beasts abound, and there are even rumored immortal beasts. It is one of the most dangerous places in China.

However, in the flames of war, danger and prosperity are almost synonymous. There are countless high-grade ores, wood, and elixirs in the Longhou Mountains. Even the beasts and monsters themselves are very precious materials. The premise is that you can kill them instead of becoming their meal.

Many high-level natural treasures that cannot be artificially cultivated in Baicao Garden can be found in Longhou Mountain Range. It can be said that the Longhou Mountain Range is a huge treasure house that is mouth-watering. However, the development of this treasure house is extremely difficult and extremely dangerous!

In the entire Longhou Mountain Range, the only place that can be called relatively safe is the Longhou Grand Canyon. However, this canyon is only relatively safe. According to secret information, the North Korean army passed through the Dragon Throat Grand Canyon, and the non-combat attrition caused by various beast attacks, poisonous snakes and insects has exceeded 8,000!

If you don't plunge into the Longhou Mountains from the Dragon's Throat Grand Canyon and try to forcefully cross it, millions of troops will not be able to make a splash in it, and they will be gone.

The naval fleet led by Shang Ji braved the wind and waves all the way, starting from Tajin, Liaodong County, and heading east along the coastline. It took three days to cross the starting point of the southern section of the Dragon Throat Mountains and enter the territory of North Korea!

Landing from the North Korean side was the suggestion given by Xi Zhicai. As soon as the suggestion was put forward, Shang Ji readily accepted it, and the fleet marched two hundred miles forward and landed in North Korea.

The east of the Dragon Throat Mountains was barren, and the North Korean army was short of troops, so naturally there were no outposts or anything like that. Except for wild beast attacks, the landing of the Pingzhou Army did not encounter any armed resistance.

After unloading the 400,000 soldiers of the Pingzhou Army, Ling Cao led the naval fleet and set sail again. He will continue to advance along the coastline, penetrate deep into the hinterland of the Korean district, and then rely on the super maneuverability of the navy to harass and loot the coastal towns of North Korea.

History has proved that there is almost no solution to this trick!

Either North Korea can grit its teeth and spend huge sums of money to build a maritime force comparable to the Pingzhou Navy; or follow the example of the early Qing Dynasty's maritime ban policy and establish a coastal no-man's land.

But neither strategy is realistic for North Korea.

With North Korea's national power and technological level, unless Pu Yin abandons the development of ground military power and devotes all his efforts to building a navy, it is impossible to create a naval force comparable to the Pingzhou Navy. However, is it possible for Park Yin to do this? Looking at his compatriots staring at him in the south, he knew that this was absolutely impossible.

The second sea ban policy is also unrealistic for Pu Yin. The terrain of North Korea is long and narrow, and the coastline is relatively long. If the residents on the north and south sides are moved away from the coast, North Korea will lose a large piece of land.

This is a completely unacceptable consequence for Pu Yin!

In fact, this is the tragedy of a small country with few people. It is naturally at a strategic disadvantage, and some disadvantages have become too great to be recovered by manpower!

Thinking in another way, putting Shang Ji in Pu Yin's position, I can't think of a better way to deal with it. And Shang Ji was backed by Huaxia, and he was not afraid of losses at all, and he could afford to lose again and again, while Pu Yin almost lost once and played.

Beacon has never been a fair game. The national war has not yet begun, and most countries are already doomed!

Watching the Pingzhou navy leave, Shang Ji rested on the spot for a long time. After half a day, the whole army was repaired, and Shang Ji led the troops to walk quickly along the foothills of the Dragon Throat Mountains.

Inside Goguryeo, North Korea's millions of reinforcements also rushed to Zuben City under the intentional release of the Pingzhou Army. The Pingzhou Army also launched a tentative attack on the heavily fortified Zuben City.

It is still the same strategy as the domestic city, with heavy siege equipment bombarding indiscriminately. Unlike the domestic city, the North Korean army is very brave, unlike the Goguryeo defenders who only dare to hide in the city and defend passively.

The fighting spirit of the Korean army was high, and they dared to take the initiative to attack. When the Pingzhou army attacked the city, they sent a small number of elite troops out of the city in an attempt to destroy the siege equipment.

Although Zhang He was careful enough, the North Korean army's attempt failed. Only a small number of siege equipment was destroyed, and the rest retreated smoothly. However, in the field battle, the Pingzhou Army's battle damage was almost one to one with that of the North Korean Army.

In the war history of the Pingzhou Army, only the encirclement and suppression and the battle of Lian Tianlangqi can be compared.

The combat power of the elite Korean army is almost the same as that of the Pingzhou army!

Although most of the siege equipment was kept, Zhang Xi did not dare to attack the city recklessly because of the threat of a defender who dared to fight in the field.

The two sides will be deadlocked for a while. However, this is very beneficial to Pu Yin. The Shang Ji army led the expedition, and the daily consumption of the army was an astronomical figure.

And Pu Yin has the pawn city as his support, and the consumption is more than half less than that of the Pingzhou Army. Pu Yin is really not afraid to fight to consume Pu Yin! If this kind of confrontation continues, Shang Ji must be the first to retreat when he can't bear the loss. In this case, Park Yin's strategic goal has been achieved.

Another three days passed, during which the Pingzhou Army launched several small-scale tentative attacks on Zuben City, but the effect was not great. And Shang Ji led the army through thousands of miles of no man's land, less than a hundred miles away from Dragon Throat Canyon!

"My lord, according to Qian Huan's investigation results, there are currently 100,000 troops stationed in Longmao Canyon, of which 80,000 are native troops, and the remaining 20,000 are alien troops.

The average strength of aliens is around the sixth level, while the aborigines are mostly at the fifth level, making them an elite army.

In addition, there are more than 200,000 North Korean farmers engaged in the construction of the fortress. It has already begun to take shape. There are defensive facilities such as arrow towers, lookout posts, and barracks. Here are some of the enemy's defense drawings from our investigation. Please take a look, my lord. . "

As he said that, a Qianhuan school captain presented a blueprint to Shang Ji.

Shang Ji took it, and then called Guo Biao, Wang Shu, Xi Zhicai and other civil and military officials to come and check.

Xi Zhicai roughly glanced at the map, then glanced at the expressionless Lieutenant Qian Huan next to him, and said with emotion: "This Qian Huan is really a military weapon. With this scout, why not worry about major events?"

"The military division is too famous, it is the duty of the general to serve the lord!"

Facing Xi Zhicai's praise, Captain Qian Huan Gu Jing Wubo saluted and said coldly.

Xi Zhicai didn't care about Qian Huan's rudeness. He pointed to the map and said, "Look, my lord. Based on the current defense facilities, Pu Yin spent a lot of money to build the Dragon Throat Fortress. My subordinates guess that he has already done it well." In order for the city to fall, the whole army is preparing to retreat to the Dragon Throat Grand Canyon. The Dragon Throat Fortress is completely built according to the standard of a giant fortress, and Pu Yin should regard this as the last line of defense for North Korea against the conquest of Pingzhou!"

"Yes, what the military advisor said is reasonable. However, the military advisor was superior. We went directly through the Dragon Throat Mountains and landed from the North Korean side. According to the information sent by Qian Huan, the main defense of the fortress built by the Koreans was from the west side. The enemy army, and we attack from the east, the defensive fortress is directly useless, and the success rate of the battle is greatly increased!"

Shang Ji smiled slightly, and looked at Xi Zhicai gratefully. Such a small suggestion directly reduced the difficulty of the Pingzhou army's attack by several levels.

"The general's reputation is too high, let's study how to quickly deal with the 100,000 defenders. Once the battle drags on for too long, Pu Yin will definitely mobilize troops to support us. We will go deep alone. Only by occupying the Dragon Throat Canyon can we be qualified for a battle. Otherwise There is danger of destruction!"

"Well, what the military adviser said is true, let's talk about how to quickly eliminate these 100,000 defenders!"

After finishing speaking, Shang Ji summoned all the main generals among the generals to hold a military meeting.

What is more tragic is that although Shang Ji's current subordinates can barely be called fierce generals like clouds and masters like clouds, a large number of main generals are confronting the North Korean army on the frontal battlefield of Goguryeo, and not many go deep with Shang Ji alone.

After careful calculation, there are only a few famous generals such as Guo Biao, Dianwei, Wang Shu, Chen Shan, and Huang Xu, and if they are masters, plus the four warriors inscribed with tigers, leopards, wolves and eagles. However, limited by the system, these four can only engage in some small-scale operations, and their value has shrunk by half.

"Look, my lord, the terrain here is dangerous, condescending, guarding the north-south traffic arteries. As long as we capture this place first, we will be able to occupy a favorable location and prevent the enemy from breaking through to the east!"

Xi Zhicai pointed to a prominent location on the canyon on the map, and talked slowly.

"Well, the terrain here is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is indeed a strategic location. Moreover, the enemy has five thousand partial divisions dedicated to guarding this place. It is a tough bone!"

"My lord's words are not bad, but it is precisely because the terrain is too dangerous that the enemy army is a little paralyzed. Only five thousand soldiers were sent to guard here. This is our opportunity. Competing with small-scale elite troops, who is the best?" Is Shadow Clothes Secret Warrior and Evil God's Guard the match?"

Xi Zhicai smiled slightly, and looked at Dian Wei, Tiger Leopard, Wolf Eagle and the others!
