    Not long after Wen Da escaped, Zhang Wenyuan also led his troops to the bank of Yalu River to join Huang Mingyuan's troops.  After getting away from Wen Da, Zhang Wenyuan apologized to Huang Mingyuan.

    Hearing about Zhang Wenyuan¡¯s great victory over the Goguryeo army, Huang Mingyuan couldn¡¯t help but admire Zhang Wenyuan¡¯s ¡°remaining majestic¡±.  As for Wenda leading the remnants of his troops to escape, although it was a pity, the flaws could not be concealed.

    As for Huang Mingyuan, he was dumbfounded when he heard that Wen Da followed his own example of cutting down trees to cross the river.  This Wenda is really a great person. If he is not eliminated, it may lead to a big disaster.

    Not long after, scouts along the way reported that there were traces of Goguryeo troops crossing the river by the Yalu River. Huang Mingyuan guessed that it should be Wenda's troops.  Huang Mingyuan knew that once he crossed the river, he would be like a dragon swimming in the sea, and he was afraid that he would be unable to catch up.

    Huang Mingyuan then ordered the entire army to move to Bozhuo City.

    At this time, the three armies totaled more than 100,000 troops, and it was possible to push Goguryeo evenly.

    It¡¯s just that Huang Mingyuan has some difficulties.  At this time, the Sui Dynasty had completely driven the opponent's main force to the east of Yalu River and captured Liaodong.  Even if there are still remnants of Goguryeo in Liaodong, it will not have much impact.  According to previous expectations, this result has satisfied the previous strategy.

    But it is impossible to withdraw the troops at this time. It is not easy to go on an expedition. How can we easily give up all our efforts? Besides, we must prevent Goguryeo from coming back.  Of course, it is not appropriate to continue fighting south. If Huang Mingyuan really wanted to destroy Goguryeo, he would not have asked Zhou Fashang to insert himself into Yalu River, but order him to fight through Xishui into Pyongyang City.  Zhou Fashang is familiar with the road, and the Goguryeo people are determined not to stop him.

    Of course, Goguryeo can also be destroyed, but Huang Mingyuan is reluctant.

    In addition to supporting the invaders to respect themselves, the most important thing is to use Goguryeo to check and balance Baekje and Silla.

    If there is only one Goguryeo, it is not a problem, but the problem is that there are Baekje and Silla to the south of Goguryeo. Once Goguryeo is destroyed, the area south of Pyongyang will inevitably be encroached by the two countries.  If Huang Mingyuan is given enough time, Baekje and Silla will not be a problem, they will all be destroyed.  But now that the Central Plains is in civil strife, Huang Mingyuan cannot waste all his time on the Korean Peninsula.

    So for Huang Mingyuan, the best result is to beat Goguryeo to death until he is convinced, and then let the half-blooded Goguryeo continue to fight with Baekje and Silla.

    But the problem is that Goguryeo is not convinced.

    This guy is just like the flat-headed brother, why don¡¯t you accept it?

    Huang Mingyuan decided to send envoys to Goguryeo first to persuade Gao Yuan to surrender.  It would be best if the war could be ended. If there was no other way, he would have to destroy Goguryeo first and then support a new force to compete with Silla and Baekje.

    But what Huang Mingyuan didn't know was that Gao Yuan was no longer afraid of Huang Mingyuan at this time, and he already had a good helper.

    The Sui Dynasty's consecutive battles against Goguryeo put pressure on not only Goguryeo, but also Baekje and Silla to the south of Goguryeo.

    Especially Baekje, which is in alliance with Goguryeo and has the same origin as the Buyeo clan. It is even more worried about the situation of Goguryeo.

    ?? Baekje, to be precise, is called Buyeo and Nam Buyeo. It is a country established in the area led by Buyeo King Wei Chodae in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Its ruling class is Buyeo people, and the lower class of the country is the Mahan tribe.  Its state shape is somewhat similar to China's neighbor India and later the Yuan Dynasty, Manchu Qing Dynasty, etc.

    As for the later Koreans who installed a group of Korean ancestors in Baekje, made up a fictional King Wen Zuo, and created dozens of fictitious kings, it goes without saying that history can extend to the Creation.  What probably made Uuchudae angry enough to come to life was that as the founding monarch of Baekje, Uuchoutai and his subsequent successors Jianju and Mayu were expelled from the founding history of Baekje by the Koreans.

    Well, the history of the universe is all Korean.

    Baekje has fertile land, mild climate, superior water conservancy conditions, and relatively developed agriculture.  Handicraft industries such as sericulture and textiles also developed.  Foreign trade was relatively developed, and it once became a powerful country in Haidong, competing with Goguryeo for control of the Korean Peninsula.

    After Baekje Muwang (posthumous title, not yet available) Buyeo Chang took the throne, he actively expanded and had wars with both Silla and Goguryeo.  Later, many wars broke out between Goguryeo and the Sui Dynasty, especially the Second Eastern Expedition. Fuyu Zhang was frightened by the Sui Dynasty. He was worried that the Sui Dynasty would continue to attack Baekje after destroying Goguryeo, so he made peace with Goguryeo and turned to attack.  Silla.

    This time Huang Mingyuan attacked Goguryeo again. Goguryeo was in danger, so he asked Baekje for help and promised to hand over Weili City (today's Seoul, South Korea, which is not the same place as another Seoul city in North Korea at the same time) to Baekje.

    When Baekje started, Jianguo was leading the area around Pyongyang. Later, it was beaten by Goguryeo and fled southward, losing the fertile Han River plain.Even the capital, Weili City, was lost.  Two history books could not finish the Baekje people's hatred of the country and family for the city.  Now Goguryeo asked for help from the city of Werye, which immediately impressed the Baekje nobles headed by Buyeo Chang.

    Fuyu Zhang believed that if the Sui Dynasty was allowed to destroy Goguryeo, Baekje would be the next to suffer this bad fate.  If we don't support Goguryeo and gain access to the blessed Han River Plain, we might even take the opportunity to destroy Goguryeo and take back Pyongyang's homeland.

    As for the strength of the Sui army, at this time Baekje, which was attacking Goguryeo in the north and Silla in the east, was a little scared, but didn't take it seriously.  In the eyes of the Baekje people, although the Sui people were powerful, they would inevitably retreat as soon as they ran out of food during an expedition of thousands of miles.  Moreover, in the land of Korea, Baekje, Goguryeo, and Silla have been loving and killing each other for hundreds of years. In everyone's subconscious mind, Korea belongs to the Three Kingdoms. What does it have to do with the Sui people?

    In this way, Baekje agreed to send troops.  In addition to paying tribute to the city, Goguryeo also sent troops to Silla with Baekje after the war, and the two sides jointly divided the land of Silla.

    It was hundreds of years ago that Goguryeo captured Pyongyang. For more than a hundred years, Baekje¡¯s biggest enemy was Silla.  When he was sixty years old, the king of Baekje, the Holy King Buyeo Myeongmo, was killed by the Silla people.

    Silla took advantage of the Sui Dynasty to attack Goguryeo and seized Goguryeo's Nanhan River Plain and the area south of the Bukhan River, becoming a common enemy of both sides.

    Of course, there were also people in the court who were sober. The important minister in the court, Zhen Lu, believed that the Sui Dynasty was a behemoth, powerful and had many troops.  Goguryeo ended up where it did today just because it provoked the Sui Dynasty.  Although Baekje is strong, it can be said to be the difference between a chick and a goshawk compared to the Sui Dynasty. Baekje cannot rush into war with the Sui Dynasty.

    Fuyu Zhang turned a deaf ear to Zhen Lu¡¯s advice.  Fu Yuzhang's personality is very similar to Yang Guang's. He likes to enjoy great achievements and extravagance. He doesn't like to persuade and is dictatorial.  Among the officials, no one dared to remonstrate.  Today, Zhenlu jumped out to confront Fuyu Zhang, and was driven out of the court by Fuyu Zhang's orders.

    As a veteran of the court, Zhenlu served four generations of emperors: King Weide, King Hui, and King Fa. He had a high status. He was so anxious and annoyed by this great humiliation that he fell ill and died suddenly.

    Fuyu Zhang, who had denounced Zhenlu, raised an army of 100,000, led by the left general Yan Zhen, the son of the famous Baekje general Yan Hui, to resist the Sui army.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
