Chapter 1028
Li Jing knew very well that it was impossible to lose a battle, but the task of this battle was to control the battle damage and achieve results that would make the people of Tang Dynasty happy.

Three days have passed since the start of the war.

Yuan Gai Su Wen went to the front line in person.

Looking at the thousands of traps, countless broken arrows, and the corpses of Goguryeo soldiers being cleaned up under the Goguryeo King City, Yuan Gai Suwen's eyes were full of anger.

Only one line away, Yuan Gai Suwen will issue an order to massacre the city.

This line was just after Yuan Gai Suwen entered the city.

"Brother, the city is empty, and most of the people left are Baekje nobles who were tied up at home. They have sent almost [-] soldiers to find less than a thousand shi of food in the city."

One thousand stones is a lot, one hundred thousand catties.

If it is fed to an ordinary family, it can be enough for the whole family to eat for several lifetimes.

But for hundreds of thousands of troops, even one day's rations are not enough.

"Food..." Yuan Gai Suwen didn't even know what to say.

Yuan Jingtu said: "It is not the Baekje people who are really fighting us, but the Japanese. The Japanese are constantly ambushing and attacking, and retreat with one blow. All the granaries in the city have been burned, and there are hardly any valuable spoils in the city. Everything was looted by the Japanese and the retreating Baekje army."

"Where's the workshop?"

"The workshop is still there and has not been destroyed. But all the craftsmen in the workshop are missing."

Following Yuan Pure Land's report, Yuan Gai Suwen's complexion became more and more grim.

"Report!"

Someone rushed in: "Report, Japanese soldiers were found. They retreated to Gwangju and are constantly boarding ships and going to sea. They also found Baekje craftsmen and at least [-] Baekje soldiers."

When Yuan Gai Suwen heard this, he shouted: "It's bad, Wa Dahe Kingdom and the Tang people have separate talks. The Tang people's navy will no longer seal the sea, and our navy will all berth at Dandong Port before winter."

"Brother, I will lead the troops to pursue."

"No, first come from the country to adjust the grain. The low-class Baekje can't die. They are not only slaves. More importantly, if a large number of Baekje civilians die after we attack Baekje in Goguryeo, the people of Silla and Tang will regard us as Evil army, we cannot afford this consequence, the Silla of the Park family will rebel, and the people of Tang will definitely prepare for war."

Yuangai Suwen has a great goal, and he will never ignore the ordinary people in Baekje because of his personal resentment.

This is exactly one of the poisonous schemes set by the Datang General Staff, called hypocrites.

If Yuangai Suwen got the trick, then the huge logistical pressure would affect the entire Goguryeo. If he didn’t fall for the trick, he would attack Baekje and rob Baekje of all its food, and let the people of Baekje starve to death.

Datang will immediately let the Musan Mine revolt, and unite with the Baekje Army to counterattack Goguryeo with a division of benevolence and righteousness, as for disaster relief.

There are still many places in Baekje where there is a large amount of grain hidden, just open a warehouse.

Yuangai Suwen wrote a letter immediately after giving the order: "Immediately hand it over to the envoys of the Tang people in Tang Fang, saying that I, Goguryeo, asked the Tang people to make an alliance, and asked the Tang people to send a navy to prevent the Baekje army from fleeing to Wa Island. "

"Brother, it's too late."

"Then change it to ask the people of Tang Dynasty to send sailors to attack Wa Island with our Goguryeo army. We only want to hunt down the escaped Baekje army. I, Goguryeo, will not take a single plant or tree from Wa Island."

The messenger immediately rushed to Wangcheng with the letter.

At this time, Park's Silla.

Brother Park is receiving Zhang Zhongjian.

Zhang Zhongjian was offering advice: "Baekje people are on the run, they don't have enough boats, why don't you send people to secretly take in some Baekje refugees, and there are many craftsmen among these people."

"Why did the craftsmen flee?" Mr. Park Tai knew very little about this war.

Zhang Zhongjian asked back: "A craftsman who works every day to earn money, would he be willing to be captured by Goguryeo and become a slave who works every day until he dies?"

"That makes sense."

"Many craftsmen in Baekje fled from Goguryeo. Now Baekje is rumored that the Goguryeo army has robbed all the food. Regardless of whether the Baekje people live or die, the Baekje people are dragging their families and fleeing south. Silla has already taken over nearly [-] people, including nearly a thousand artisans, and these artisans can make Old Silla each get [-] guan in revenue."

Zhang Zhongjian continued to analyze for Mr. Park.

Since Big Brother Pu split Silla, foreign trade has depended on Zhang Zhongjian to help him.

For the trade of Goguryeo, Park Silla could not make money.

Only by secretly smuggling with the Tang people can you make money, and you can also exchange for a large amount of ordnance.

At present, the Park Silla army can be said to be armed by Zhang Zhongjian's smuggling, and Zhang Zhongjian helped train several excellent troops.

Zhang Zhongjian had no official or position in Park's Silla, but his status was under one person and above tens of thousands.

"I will discuss with the rest of the nobles, and there will be a result in the afternoon."

"Well, please tell me that there are a group of shipbuilders in Baekje King City, as well as some silversmiths and coppersmiths. These people are of great significance to me. I hope that someone can help me build a ship, and someone can forge Tang Dynasty coins."

Zhang Zhongjian made a request.

If you don't mention some benefits to yourself, Mr. Park will definitely be suspicious.

For shipbuilding, Mr. Park knew that Zhang Zhongjian had been looking for an excellent craftsman who could build the full-sail warships of the Tang Dynasty, but unfortunately he never found one.As for making coins, Mr. Park just smiled in his heart. It is impossible for Zhang Zhongjian to find them. None of the three peninsula countries have tried to forge them with all their efforts.

Naturally, Zhang Zhongjian couldn't fake success either.

Zhang Zhongjian returned to his resting place to wait for the news.

Ba Dao came out from the shadows: "Father, why didn't you kill that old thief."

"I can't kill him. He took Silla's crown, king's seal, and soldier talisman away. What if he can't find these three things after killing him, so don't be in a hurry. I believe this is an opportunity for your people to keep an eye on them." Certainly, the crown is not important, but once the Silla king's seal and soldier talisman are found, the old thief can die."

"Yes, foster father."

There is still a gap between Ba Dao and Zhang Zhongjian, who is also a heroic figure.

Back then, he was one of the anti-kings, but after meeting Li Shimin, Zhang Zhongjian thought he was not as good.

After seeing Liu Mu again, Zhang Zhongjian was willing to come back and become a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, not to mention that Li Shimin promised him a real prince, even if it was a county king, as long as he had a real fief, Zhang Zhongjian thought it was worth it.

Therefore, Zhang Zhongjian will desperately help Datang win the peninsula.

Anyone who stands in front of him will die.

Zhang Zhongjian had just sat down to rest, before the tea was brought to his mouth, Mr. Pu sent someone to ask for advice.

"Sir, if Goguryeo comes to question the crime, how should we deal with it?"

Obviously, the old thief was tempted and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

 This time it's really not out of context, really not, really not, really not.
