Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1025
Whether he can defeat Tang Jun is what Gao Jianwu cares most about!

So when he asked this question, Gao Jianwu stared nervously at Yuan Gai Suwen.

Yuan Gai Suwen nodded slowly but firmly and said: "After all, the Tang army only has 10,000+ soldiers and horses, so there is nothing to be afraid of. The artillery and muskets are indeed powerful, but each has its own flaws. I will definitely defeat the Tang army!"

Gao Jianwu felt relieved when he heard this, and said in a loud voice: "Okay, Aiqing just let go and fight, and when the Tang army is defeated, Gu will be rewarded heavily, even if he cracks the earth and becomes the king!"

Yuan Gai Suwen bowed and said: "I would like to issue a military order. If the Tang army cannot be defeated, I will come to see you!"

Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice: "Okay, then Gu will hand over the king's capital and the life and death of the entire Goguryeo to Ai Qing!"

After Gao Jianwu left, Yuan Gai Suwen didn't leave immediately, but sat down slowly, his eyes were very calm and clear. How could he look like he was grateful for the death of a confidant just now?
The king came in person, acting like a courteous and virtuous corporal, entrusting him with a lot of rewards, and cracking the earth to seal the king, but he knew that it was all nonsense.

If the army had not been defeated, but won a complete victory, would the king still respect the virtuous and corporals today?
No, I will only humiliate him to my heart's content, scold him for his crimes, and then execute him!
What rewards are there?What cracked the soil to seal the king?After he defeats Tang Jun, the king will definitely want to kill him and hurry up!
Because the master is overwhelmed by his merit!

Because of the cunning rabbit, the lackeys are cooking!

"Since you want to be unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous!" Yuan Gai Suwen murmured.

The news that Yuan Gai Su Wen was in command spread quickly, and those who knew the news were inexplicably relieved.

In the past year, the attitude of the people in the capital towards Yuan Gai Suwen has changed several times. At the beginning, they admired Yuan Gai Suwen so proudly that they spit and cursed him, but now they feel that only Yuan Gai Suwen can turn the tide!
Although this crisis may have been caused by Yuan Gai Su Wen, there is no doubt about Yuan Gai Su Wen's ability.

In the deep palace, Gao Jianwu sat there silently.

The servant reported in a low voice the market news that the guard had heard.

"The common people have Yuan Gai Su Wen in command, Goguryeo is saved! Even the officials in the court said so."

"There are still many people who say, say..."

Gao Jianwu said in a low voice, "Speak on!"

"There are also many people who say that the king should have appointed Yuan Gai Suwen in command long ago, then the Tang army would have been defeated long ago, and the king's capital would not have to go through danger. They also said, and said that the king should not choose the right people if he does not choose the right people."

Gao Jianwu's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything in the end.

"Where's Yuan Gai Suwen? What are you doing?" Gao Jianwu asked in a deep voice.

"General Yuan is inspecting the city defense, checking the ordnance, and going to the Ministry of War to check the situation of the deployment of troops." The servant said respectfully.

Gao Jianwu was speechless after hearing this, looked at the memorial on Wang's case, and said in a deep voice, "All of these are confirmed!"

The servant heard this in surprise and said, "Your Majesty, these officials are all..."

Gao Jianwu glared at the servant, and said in a deep voice: "He can kill whoever he wants, and he can be promoted to whoever he wants. As long as he can defeat Tang Jun, let him do it!"

A servant came in and said in a respectful voice, "Report to Your Majesty, Brother, please see Your Majesty!"

"Let's announce him to come in!" Gao Jianwu said lightly.

Eldest brother Song Jing walked into the main hall and said respectfully: "I pay homage to the king!"

Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice, "Does Song Aiqing have something to play?"

Eldest brother Song Jing looked around, hesitant to speak, Gao Jianwu waved his hand slightly and said: "They all believe in it, Ai Qing has something to say, but it doesn't matter!"

Eldest brother Song Jing murmured: "Please excuse my boldness, I want to ask the king, do you think Yuan Gai Suwen can definitely defeat the Tang army?"

The servants next to him couldn't help but lower their heads when they heard this, and the two were fighting, because the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became very oppressive.

This is a boulder that weighs on everyone's hearts.

Yes, Yuan Gai Suwen must defeat Tang Jun?

Although Yuan Gai Suwen issued a military order, why didn't Gao Yanshou make an oath when he was ordered?

Therefore, Gao Jianwu didn't have an answer in his mind. He stood up and said in a deep voice, "I can only trust Yuan Gai Suwen, and believe that he will definitely defeat Tang Jun!"

Eldest brother Song Jing said in a deep voice: "The ancients said it well, before thinking about victory, think about defeat. Your majesty has thought about it. If Yuan Gai Su Wen also loses, what should we do?"

Gao Jianwu frowned and said, "What exactly is Song Aiqing trying to say?"

Song Jing said in a deep voice: "Yuan Gai Su Wen and Su Cheng are good friends. This is an indisputable fact. Even if he is still loyal to the king, if he loses this battle, Goguryeo will perish, and Yuan Gai Su Wen can still be the leader of the Tang Dynasty." Courtier."

"Even officials in the court can be officials of the Tang Dynasty, but what about you, Your Majesty?"

Gao Jianwu's face became more and more gloomy when he heard this, and he had to say that what Song Jing said was indeed reasonable. Even if Goguryeo died, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could serve Datang and become officials of Datang.

Only he, the king, will become a prisoner of Datang, and even be given a glass of poisoned wine.

Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice: "Does Song Aiqing also want to submit to the Tang Dynasty? Song Aiqing is my eldest brother and one of the few important ministers in the court. She must be able to get a big position in the Tang Dynasty!"

Song Jing bowed and said: "If I really have the heart, I won't say these words. It is because I don't want to be Tang Chen that I come here boldly!"

Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice, "Then what exactly is Aiqing trying to say?"

Song Jing said slowly: "Peace!"

Gao Jianwu frowned slightly after hearing this: "Seek peace?"

Song Jing said slowly: "Yes, cede Liaodong for peace!"

Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice: "Liaodong is the gateway of our Koguryo. If we lose the barrier of Liaodong, then our Koguryo can only let the Tang army come in and out, and the country may perish at any time!"

Song Jing said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, ceding Liaodong is only a stopgap measure!"

Song Jing said in a deep voice: "For one thing, seeking peace can delay time. Once winter enters, why is the Tang army suffering from the severe cold? Heavy snow blocks the roads, and it is difficult for the Tang army to supply supplies!"

"Secondly, even if the Tang Dynasty withdraws its troops and occupies Liaodong, so what? The Tang Dynasty is surrounded by enemies, with Tubo in the west, Turks in the north, and Xue Yantuo, Tie Le and other clans are eyeing each other. War may break out at any time. , won’t it be easy to recover Liaodong by then?”

"Why do we have to fight this uncertain battle? If we lose the battle, Datang will definitely annex our Goguryeo, no matter how fearful we are, we can't afford to lose!"

"It's not because I'm timid and afraid of death, but because my sincere heart is for the sake of the king and Goguryeo, I hope the king will think twice!"

Gao Jianwu struggled a lot when he heard this, and he had to admit that what Song Jing said was also very reasonable.

"Aiqing's thoughts and concerns are not unreasonable. I am very pleased that Aiqing can speak out impartially. It's just that this is a big matter, and I have to think twice!" Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice.
