612년 고수 전쟁 전후 수나라의 병사 징발과 물자 동원

Abstract

This paper is a study on the recruitment of soldiers and trans portation of military supplies in the Sui Dynasty during the Goguryeo-Sui War in 612. Emperor Yangdi, the second emperor of Sui Dynasty, discovered the Goguryo envoys at the Qimin’s Ordu, residence of Turk Qaghan in 607 and decided to invade Goguryo. He dug up Yongjiqu(永濟渠), northern waterway of the Grand Canal, to transport war supplies in 608, purchased war horses, inspected and made new weapons, and give military training to the subject in 610. In order to safely transport military supplies, Yongdao(甬道), a food transport route with walls built on both sides of the road was created extending from Yongzhou to the border with Goguryo during the War of 612. The plan for transporting military supplies to invade Goguryeo was perfect. As a result of my review of existing historical records, I confirmed that soldiers were conscripted from most areas except Liangzhou and Jingzhou, the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. However, although people from as far away as the Yangtze River Valley in the south were mobilized to transport materials, the transport of materials ultimately failed. During the Goguryeo-Sui War in 612, warmonger emperor mobilized 2,267,600 mobilized peasant people carrying military supplies, which was twice the number of regular soldiers. However, when the generals, including Yuwen Shu(宇文述), who commanded the Sui Dynasty army, invaded Goguryo’s territory from Luhezhen(瀘河 鎭) and Huaiyuanzhen(懷遠鎭), the border area where military supplies were stored, they provided the soldiers with enough food for 100 days. Each person was ordered to carry and march. Looking at this record, we can see that the transportation of military supplies for the mobilized peasant people was mainly carried out within the territory of the Sui Dynasty, and that there were many problems with the logistics that had been prepared for several years.
