    "Report, the enemy's reinforcements are coming!" Jingwen heard that the enemy's reinforcements were coming, that is to say, he knew that the reinforcements should be Yeon Gaesumun's reinforcements.  Because Yuriko had told Jingwen a long time ago that Yuengaisuwen should go to the rear to gather reinforcements and wanted to come to support Anshi.  And this 100,000-strong army is also about one-third of Goguryeo's army, so if these armies are defeated, Goguryeo will really be seriously injured.  Goguryeo's population was only a few million, but it had hundreds of thousands of troops. This could be said to be extremely militaristic, and they also hoped for a quick victory.  Because the Goguryeo people are not fools, of course they know that if the delay continues, their comprehensive strength may not be the opponent of the Tang Dynasty, and they can only fight quickly.  If they could annihilate hundreds of thousands of Tang troops at once, it would be Tang Dynasty that would be severely damaged, not Goguryeo.  Moreover, in the hearts of Goguryeo people, there are probably many people who dream of annihilating hundreds of thousands of Tang troops at once.  After all, Ulji Mundeok annihilated more than 300,000 troops of the Sui Dynasty at one time, and withstood the attack of millions of troops on Liaodong City. Now he really became a great hero of Goguryeo.  Under such circumstances, many people plan to imitate this behavior. As long as they succeed, the future will be very bright.  "I think we should hold on to the city so that we can drain their morale. After all, the Goguryeo people are very impetuous now. They are probably very impetuous and want to annihilate hundreds of thousands of our troops at once, so that they can achieve success. This  This can be seen from the last time Yuan Gaisuwen was in Liaodong City, and another aspect is from the fact that Yang Wanchun stayed in Anshi this time. They all want to achieve great success, and then we might as well use them to become famous.  At this point, if they want to attack the city, we will hold on. Anyway, we have such good conditions, with grenades and cannons, so what are we afraid of? So we can completely exhaust their energy and then attack in a unified manner.  They were completely destroyed," Jing Wen said.  Lin Fei immediately said: "I agree with Commander-in-Chief's judgment. The Goguryeo people are coming from behind now with great momentum. Moreover, they are full of enthusiasm for making contributions. I am afraid that if we go out to fight them directly, we will not be our opponents.  What's more, there are 100,000 of them, and our infantry plus artillery is only over 10,000. It would be difficult to rush out of the city to fight. As for the artillery, although it has good firepower, its range is less than 300 feet.  The distance is so large that it is impossible to pose a large threat to Goguryeo. "These Goguryeo troops are camped one thousand meters away, and it is difficult for the cannon to hit them, so shooting is in vain.  Therefore, if the infantry cannot be supported by artillery, then if ten thousand infantrymen rush over, the losses will be very heavy.  Although the combat effectiveness of the Tang army was generally higher than that of the Goguryeo people, it was far from being able to match one to ten.  Therefore, the Tang army was obviously no match for the Goguryeo people who were ten times their own strength.  So everyone agreed to choose to hold on for a while and then launch a counterattack.  "Okay. We have to hold on for a few days first. As long as we hold on for a few days, once the Goguryeo people fall into a hard fight, they will be in tragedy. Once Yeongae Somun is unable to attack for a long time, they will inevitably overwhelm them.  All troops. This is the best time for us to counterattack, because then our artillery can provide support and we can defeat 100,000 Goguryeo troops at once," Jingwen said.  And Dugu Mou immediately asked: "What if the Goguryeo people don't overwhelm the entire army?" "No! They will, and they will definitely overwhelm the entire army. Because we have already requested the support of the emperor in Liaodong City. And the emperor  He also knew that it wouldn't take long for the Goguryeo soldiers to come to support him, so the emperor was not a fool. Of course, he knew that if the Goguryeo army was completely wiped out, Goguryeo would really suffer, so the emperor would not.  If you miss this opportunity, it would be better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt him. If the emperor sends reinforcements, Yeon Gaesumun will definitely become very impetuous, and he will probably become very aggressive and choose to attack with the whole army.  . As for whether we can hold on, haven't we just been sent a batch of supplies? So there is no need to be afraid, we can kill a large number of them just with grenades." Jing Wen said with certainty.  Of course Jingwen knew that the apparently Goguryeo people, like the Japanese in later generations, were full of gambling.  By defeating the Sui Dynasty, the Goguryeo people officially established their status as the hegemon of Northeast Asia, and it all seemed like a gamble.  Goguryeo and the Sui Dynasty bet three times, and Goguryeo succeeded, so it has its current status.  As for the generals and commanders of Goguryeo, the same was true.  At that time, Ulji Mundeok defended Liaodong City, which made him famous and allowed many future generations to follow suit.  Yeon Gae So-moon and Yang Wanchun are both people who want to imitate Ulji Mun-deok, so these guys are full of gambling. Once they reach a critical moment, instead of retreating, they will choose to fight.  Now we are both together?In fact, it was a tug of war with each other in Anshi. The Tang army conquered Anshi, which was equivalent to conquering Goguryeo's most important line of defense.  As long as the Tang Army captures this line of defense, it means that the Tang Army can continue to attack all the way to the hinterland of Goguryeo.  But the Goguryeo people must recapture this defense line. Even if they cannot recapture the entire defense line, they must recapture a city within this defense line.  As long as a city is recaptured, a wedge is driven into this line of defense. As long as this wedge exists, the Tang army will not be able to continue attacking.  Therefore, the Tang Army must ensure that this line of defense is fully secured, otherwise the Tang Army will not be able to continue the attack.  As long as Anshi could be captured and held until winter, the Goguryeo people believed that the Tang army would withdraw.  Therefore, Yeon Gaesumun must recapture a city and hold it until winter. In this way, the Goguryeo people will be safe, and Yeongaesumun will become a hero of the Goguryeo people.  "Liaodong City has hundreds of thousands of Tang troops stationed there, so it is impossible to recapture it directly.  Therefore, Yeon Gaesumun also set his sights on Anshi. There were only more than 10,000 Tang troops in Anshi, and the Tang army had just occupied Anshi, so in theory it should be very easy to recapture it.  So Yeon Gaesomun set his sights on Anshi, hoping to recapture Anshi and hold Anshi until winter, so that the Goguryeo people could win.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
