    Not long after this incident, the second son Huang Weilie did not return to Zoushan from Hanoi, but came directly to Youzhou, and his junior brother Xu Zhe accompanied him.

    Xu Zhe, courtesy name Wengzhi, was born in the seventh year of the founding of the Emperor and was the great-grandson of Xu Ling, a great master of the Southern Dynasties. Xu Ling was known as the "Stone Unicorn in the Sky" and was the prototype of Mei Changsu in "Nirvana in Fire".

    Xu Zhe's father, Xu Fayan, was the prince of Nanchen, Xima. After entering the Sui Dynasty, he served as a Gongcao in Shu County and participated in the military.

    Xu Zhe has been following Zhang Heng as a disciple since he was a child. He has served Zhang Heng for many years but has never been an official, so he spread his knowledge widely.  Zhang Heng was executed by Yang Guang. Huang Mingyuan was originally worried that Xu Zhe would be implicated, but he didn't expect that Xu Zhe would come to join him this time.

    Although Huang Mingyuan didn¡¯t have much contact with Xu Zhe, Huang Mingyuan knew the abilities of his junior brother very well.  Zhang Heng has always been proud of Xu Zhe, saying, "What I have learned in my life can only be passed down to Huang Mingyuan and Xu Zhe. It is enough to have these two as my disciples."

    At this time, Huang Mingyuan was famous all over the world; at this time, Xu Zhe was unknown.  But in Zhang Heng's eyes, Xu Zhe is comparable to Huang Mingyuan, which shows that he is average.

    Xu Zhe saw Huang Mingyuan and said to Huang Mingyuan: "Brother, before he died, the teacher asked me to tell you that the saint is no longer the saint of the past. He just didn't see this clearly and ended up where he is today. And senior brother, you are so talented.  Also known as shaking the world, I don¡¯t know how many people want to take advantage of my senior brother. Senior brother must not be benevolent to women. If there is a good opportunity, cut it off.'"

    Huang Mingyuan¡¯s expression changed several times after hearing Zhang Heng¡¯s words, but he didn¡¯t say anything in the end.  Whether this is because the teacher was resentful of Yang Guang after being demoted for a long time, or because he is not optimistic about the current situation in the Sui Dynasty, it has to be said that people in the world are in chaos now, and Yang Guang has lost the hearts of quite a few people.  .

    The centipede insect is dead but not stiff, and its death comes from within.  Maybe Zhang Heng was the convict responsible for Yang Guang's downfall!

    After Zhang Heng died, Xu Zhe had nowhere to go. He came to Youzhou and was willing to serve as an official here at Huang Mingyuan.

    Xu Zhe is resourceful and good at planning, so Huang Mingyuan asked Xu Zhe to follow him as a consultant.  Xu Zhe didn't care about his official position, but was happy to be a guest and assist Huang Mingyuan.

    Soon, Zhang Heng¡¯s matter was over. Now the imperial court¡¯s attention was focused on the second conquest of Goguryeo. How could it care about the life and death of a demoted official?  If it weren't for the relationship between Zhang Heng and Huang Mingyuan, no one would care about Zhang Heng even if he died eight times.

    Huang Mingyuan also quickly focused all his attention on the Eastern Conquest of Goguryeo. He and Chen Yuan read various documents about Goguryeo, learned in detail about the last conquest of Goguryeo, and formulated a plan for the second conquest of Goguryeo.

    Huang Mingyuan is not like Yang Guang, who decides major events at the first glance. He just focuses his preparations on personnel and materials, while ignoring the understanding of the enemy's situation.

    Even the surname of the generals of the other party is very famous, and it is just like the blindness, how to fight this battle.

    Therefore, as soon as he arrived in Youzhou, Huang Mingyuan sent a large number of intelligence personnel to Goguryeo.  Cooperate with the North to inquire about Goguryeo's information in detail.

    For this expedition, Huang Mingyuan sent a large number of Beidou personnel to Goguryeo more than ten years ago. The investigation of various maps, hydrology, mountains, rivers, and personnel has never stopped. This is Huang Mingyuan's second expedition to Goguryeo.

    " Otherwise, like Yang Guang, he blindly launches troops without sufficient preparation, and how can he win?

    Goguryeo is not simple. It has fought with the Central Plains Dynasty for seventy years, survived four emperors Yang Jian, Yang Guang, Li Shimin, and Li Zhi, and fought more than a dozen wars. It can be said that it is an invincible little power.

    It¡¯s a pity that Goguryeo was unlucky and encountered the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the most powerful dynasty in the Central Plains. If it was in the late Song and Ming dynasties, it might not be impossible to take over the Central Plains.

    This time Huang Mingyuan went to Goguryeo. The enemy was not only the Goguryeo army, but also the Sui rebellion in civil strife.

    In fact, troubles are not only caused externally, but also arise internally.  Historically, during the Second Sui Dynasty's expedition to Goguryeo, Yang Xuangan's rebellion soon occurred, which shocked the world and caused the expedition plan to be aborted midway.  Although history has changed, the situation in the world has not changed. He must also be on guard against Yang Xuangan being brain-dead again and affecting this conquest.

    Although there are three times in history that Goguryeo was conquered, in fact, during the third time, both sides were unable to fight again.  The third Eastern Expedition of the Sui Dynasty was just a name to maintain dignity, so after Goguryeo nominally surrendered, this Eastern Expedition ended.

    But in the end, King Gaoyuan of Goguryeo did not enter the court, so Yang Guang also thought about conquering Goguryeo in all directions, but it did not come true.

    This means that the Second Conquest of Goguryeo is likely to be the only chance for the Sui Dynasty. After the Yang Xuangan rebellion, the Sui Dynasty has completely entered the apocalypse, and it will be difficult to have actual strength.?The desire to destroy Goguryeo.

    And Huang Mingyuan himself can only grasp this time.

    It has to be said that this expedition to Goguryeo was the most uncertain battle for Huang Mingyuan.

    In the next month, Huang Mingyuan was extremely busy.  From the army to the local area, even though he has delegated most of the work to others, he still has no leisure.  He hasn't been this busy for a long time.

    Soon, another expedition to Goryeo became a foregone conclusion.

    At the great court meeting on the first day of the first lunar month, Yang Guang suddenly said to everyone: "Goguryeo, a small country, has insulted the superior country; now it is even possible to lift the sea and move the mountains, which I, the Sui Dynasty, can do, let alone destroy a small country."

    Yang Guang announced that he was going to fight in person again.

    This frightened everyone in the court. If Yang Guang had not commanded randomly last time, this battle would not have ended up like this.  This time Yang Guang has to do it himself, who can not be afraid.

    Guo Rong, the doctor of Zuo Guanglu, hurriedly advised: "The rudeness of the country of Rong and Di is something that ministers should deal with. A powerful crossbow will not be fired for a little mouse. Why should a saint personally conquer such a small enemy?"

    But Yang Guang didn¡¯t listen.

    I lost face last year and haven¡¯t had a good year in a row.  With Huang Mingyuan leading the troops this year, they will never return without success.

    On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Yang Guang ordered the conscription of soldiers from all over the world to gather in Zhuojun, and built the ancient city of Liaodong to store military grain, and sent grain from Huainan and Jiangnan to Zhuojun.

    On February 15, Yang Guang ordered Huang Mingyuan to be appointed as the military commander of Liaodong Road. He was responsible for taking charge of military affairs in Liaodong, controlling all armies, and commanding 500,000 troops to conquer Goguryeo.

    The vigorous second expedition to Goguryeo officially began.

    At this time, Huang Mingyuan was in Zhuo County and had already mobilized a total of 70,000 troops from the five general offices of Fengzhou, Daizhou, Shuozhou, Pingzhou and Yingzhou, as well as 40,000 troops from the general office of Youzhou and 100,000 troops from the counties in Hebei and Hedong.  , the left and right armed and guard armies, with a total of 250,000 troops, left Yuguan and headed for Liaodong County without waiting for Yang Guang's arrival.

    At the same time, Huang Mingyuan took Hu'er as his general and led the main force of the navy to attack Beishe City from the sea, and then opened up the sea transportation line from Donglai County to Beishe City to Tongding Town to ensure the timely transfer of supplies.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
