Gang Gam-chan defeats the world's strongest Khitan in the world at the time In February 1019, something unbelievable happened. Goryeo defeated the Khitan, who had plunged all of Asia into the fear of war. With this war, Goryeo was able to increase its voice in the international community and usher in an era of peace, while the Khitan slowly began to walk the path of destruction. The Battle of Gwiju, which changed the power landscape in Asia, was led by the strategist Gang Gam-chan. After 27 years of persistent invasion, King Seongjong of Khitan personally led the army to invade Goryeo. The second invasion began after Seo Hee's diplomatic negotiations. After crossing the Amnok River and defeating Tongju and Seogyeong in succession, the 400,000-strong Khitan army stormed Gaeseong and, after looting and burning, received Goryeo's surrender. However, the Second Goryeo-Khitan War did not end there. Yang Gyu and Kim Sook-heung made a surprise attack on the retreating Khitan army from the front and rear, decapitating the enemy and rescuing the people. In the end, the Khitans retreated and decided to launch a third invasion. Gang Gam-chan's brilliant move that changed the fate of Goryeo In the winter of 1018, the final war between Goryeo and the Khitans began. So Bae-ap, who came up with a surprising and bold plan called Gaegyeongjikgong, quickly advanced south by bypassing all the fortresses along the way. However, the Khitans, exhausted by the Goryeo army's persistent pursuit and Hyeonjong's scorched-earth strategy, had to decide to withdraw right before Gaegyeong. Gang Gam-chan, who had anticipated everything, waited for So Bae-ap's army, who had been pushed back as if being chased, in Gwiju. The Battle of Gwiju was the final battle that brought the curtain down on the Goryeo-Khitan war. The Korean version of the Battle of Red Cliffs in Gwiju In February 1019, Goryeo and the Khitans fought their final showdown in Gwiju. The tense war turned into a southerly one, and the Goryeo army gained the upper hand. In the end, the Khitan army had no choice but to retreat north, completely losing their will to fight as they faced the Goryeo army that attacked with the wind at their backs. What was the wind that was blowing at that moment? Did Gang Gam-chan predict the change in weather? We will solve the mystery.
