Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

Li Junxian didn't know that Yeon Gaesumun was dead and Goguryeo had collapsed internally.

At this time, he was commanding the army to cross the Datong River and quickly launch a fierce attack on the defenders on the shore.

When he thought about it, he had just blown up the opponent's general. After experiencing the initial chaos, the opponent would definitely launch a fierce counterattack against him with grief and anger.

Therefore, the top priority is to get the army to cross the river as soon as possible, and then establish a stronghold and gain a firm foothold.

But what he didn't expect was that after the initial chaos, the enemy did not launch a fierce counterattack against him as he expected.

Instead, he took the initiative to retreat.

In the end, it even turned into a rout.

Since Li Junxian did not bring many cavalry this time, facing the defeated enemies, he could only look at their backs and sigh.

Of course, he could also order his soldiers to pursue them with all their might.

But I don't even have the simplest topographic map of this place. If this is a trap by the enemy, then I will suffer heavy losses.

After careful consideration, he decided not to pursue the pursuit, and directly ordered people to take over the camps and supplies left by the Goguryeo army, preparing to rest here and wait for his unreliable master.

Unlike Li Junxian's great victory, Zhang Shun and the warrior Xun at this time were like provoking a hornet's nest and were constantly being harassed by the navy of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Ever since the beacon fire was lit by the governor of Dengzhou, naval forces from all over the country rushed out in full force like sharks smelling blood, and they all surrounded the Dengzhou waters.

At first, Zhang Shun and Samurai Xun were very happy about this act of giving away people's heads.

You don't even need to take the initiative to attack, someone will take the initiative to come to your door and give you a chance to win military glory.

But as time went by, the navy of the Great Zhou Dynasty suffered heavy losses.

They gradually realized that if they went alone, they were just delivering food to others.

As a result, they began to slowly gather in nearby ports, clinging to the watchtowers and forts arranged at the ports to fight back against non-owning ships that dared to approach.

This kind of blinded Zhang Shun and Samurai Xun.

Since the opponent's artillery has been improved and has a much longer range than the artillery on the battleship, and the opponent has a geographical advantage, if they want to launch a strong attack, they will definitely suffer heavy losses.

However, since the other party is huddled under the fort at the port, then if you don't fight on your side, why hang yourself on a tree?

So, after some discussion, Zhang Shun and Samurai Xun decided to abandon this place and head directly towards the sea area of ​​​​Yangzhou City.

However, as soon as he made a move, the navy at Dengzhou Port immediately sent out countless extremely fast sterns to harass him.

In addition to the necessary crew members, these stern ships only carry various flammable materials.

They took advantage of the fleet to turn away and flow down the river, rushing directly into the fleet, specifically looking for transport ships with weak defenses.

As long as it comes close, it will immediately ignite the flammable materials on the ship, and then everyone will be destroyed.

At first, Zhang Shun and the warrior Xun directly ordered to use artillery to blast all the approaching ships into pieces.

But as time went by, and more and more Zhou Dynasty reinforcements arrived in the Dengzhou waters, such stern boats became everywhere.

Every time they launch a suicide attack, there are basically only seven or eight ships launching it from all directions at the same time.

Since the opponent was extremely fast and moved quickly on the sea, Zhang Shun and Samurai Xun wanted to rely on artillery to destroy it. There was no doubt that they were like using anti-aircraft cannons to swat mosquitoes.

It often takes several rounds of artillery fire to destroy a stern boat.

In this way, the losses of both parties are completely disproportionate.

Although Chu Mo is now very wealthy and has plundered the resources of the entire Japanese island, he may not be able to withstand such a situation.

In this regard, Zhang Shun and Samurai Yun could only retreat while fighting, hoping to stay away from the coastline of Dengzhou City, making these stern boats that could only swim offshore useless.

But what they didn't expect was that they had given up on Dengzhou City, but the navy of the Great Zhou Kingdom was unwilling to give up on them.

They also know the weakness of stern ships in close combat.

So he also drove a warship with a large number of stern boats, hanging far behind Zhang Shun and the warrior Xun.

Whenever there is a chance, he will pounce on it and take a bite.

If Zhang Shun and the warrior Xun turned around to pursue them, the navy of the Great Zhou Dynasty would immediately turn around and escape, without giving the two sides any chance to fight.

In response, Zhang Shun and Samurai Xun scolded each other's commander bloody, but there was nothing they could do.

What made them even more angry was that the defenders on the Tang Dynasty also got news and knew about the existence of their group of "pirates".

He actually put aside the prejudices between the two countries and formed a group to encircle and suppress him.

As a result, Zhang Shun and the warrior Xun, who were originally so arrogant that they had no friends, could only fight and escape with this huge fleet, trying to minimize their losses.

Chu Mo didn't know that the invincible fleet he had built would be chased by several stern boats and run away like a lost dog.

If he knew, he would definitely swim over from the other side of the sea overnight and slap these two idiots to death.

At this time, he and his fleet had just arrived at the mouth of the Datong River and contacted the personnel arranged by Li Junxian here.

When he heard that Li Junxian had defeated all the Goguryeo troops by himself, he couldn't help but blush.

Others were fighting for life and death, but I was holding them back.

Immediately, after meeting Li Junxian, he handed over all command rights to the other party, while he sat in the middle of the army and waited for the other party to submit a victory report.

After Li Junxian took over the military power from Chu Mo, he immediately ordered the entire army to march towards Pyongyang City.

However, when the army resisted the city of Pyongyang, they found that the capital of Goguryeo had already been deserted.

Except for some civilians, old, weak, women and children in the city, as well as those who could not run or were unwilling to leave their hometowns, the rest, as long as they could still walk, all fled Pyongyang City.

Facing this empty city, Li Junxian left 2000 soldiers to guard it, and then directly ordered the troops to be divided into three groups.

All the way to Dandong and all the way to Yanji, he led the army in the middle and sent troops directly to the inner city.

As for Chu Mo, he stayed in Pyongyang with Chu Ruowan, responsible for logistics coordination and delivering supplies to the frontline troops.

At the same time, Chu Xin, who was far away in Zhengzhou, also received the news that Goguryeo was defeated by an army that appeared out of nowhere, Yeon Gaesumun died, and the capital fell.
