The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 876
"Master Hou, over there in Anshi City, His Majesty has decided to ask the teacher to return to the imperial court." Chang Le walked into Xuan Shijing's camp, and came to Xuan Shijing's side and said.

"Oh? Your Majesty, can you say who will take over the Liaodong side here?" Xuan Shijing asked.

The Tang army laid down so many cities in Liaodong, and they certainly couldn't throw these cities to Goguryeo after the army left.

"It's settled, Mr. Gao Jifu and Yang Shidao, Jian'an City will continue to serve as the base of the navy in Liaodong, resting on the land of Sanhan." Chang Le said: "Your Majesty knows that you are here to fill up the mud. I also praise you, it must be much easier for the army to pass through Liaoshui when returning to the court."

"The weather is warmer these days, has the river beach melted?"

"The top layer showed signs of melting. I dug a little bit down, but it was still frozen. It snowed two days ago, and the snow water accumulated on the surface."

"Looking at it this way, I have to let the people below start digging and filling it." Xuan Shijing got up, walked to the door of the tent, opened the curtain and looked at Lan outside: "The sun outside is good now, order to go down, Digging earth to fill the river, if the army sets out to return to the court, it will be less than half a month to reach the Liao River."

"Yes, Lord Hou." Xuan Shijing replied.

An additional group of troops surrendered in Anshi City. After Anshicheng was beaten in by the Tang army, Yang Wanchun killed himself in the city lord's mansion, leaving behind a large group of Goguryeo soldiers who were at a loss. The soldiers in the city lost their leaders for a while. The sheep were all messed up, and Li Ji led his men and horses to massacre in the city. When His Majesty Li Er led his troops into the city, there were very few Goguryeo defenders in the city. do not kill.

Li Ji's actions made Xuan Shijing look at him with admiration. The Central Plains has always been too gentle to foreigners throughout history. As a result, Han people are like leeks, harvested by foreign races one by one. Iron-blooded generals like Li Ji, who would massacre the city if they disagreed with each other, even though the Central Plains Dynasty is very strong now, but as long as they are disobedient, they will be dealt with ruthlessly.

Only when they are maimed and feared, will they be as docile as sheep and as loyal as dogs.

Next, just wait quietly by the Liaoshui River and return to Chang'an with the army. After being out for such a long time, I really miss my family.

"Master Hou, this is from the scouts we sent out." Chang Le walked in from the outside, holding a few envelopes in his hand.

"send over."

Xuan Shijing opened the envelopes and read each one carefully.

"Weeds on the wall!" Xuan Shijing scolded with a smile.

"Master Hou, why are you smiling so happily?" Chang Le looked at Xuan Shijing's smiling face, and always felt that his Master Hou's smile was a little wretched.

"Oh, it's Baekje. After Anshicheng was captured by our Tang Dynasty, those Baekje people also knew that they were afraid. They broke off ties with Quangai Suwen, and sent envoys to Silla again, wanting peace talks. On the other hand, they are sending envoys to Chang'an, and they want to meet His Highness the Crown Prince first, and then meet His Majesty after His Majesty returns to court." Xuan Shijing said disdainfully: "That's it, it's not a grasshopper."

"Um, this is a good thing for Silla. Without our Tang Dynasty, Silla would be in danger now." Chang Le said.

"You think that Baekje has occupied the city of Silla, and it can be returned so easily, as you, are you willing?" Xuan Shijing said with a smile: "Look, it's no wonder that Silla didn't vomit blood this time." Woolen cloth. "

According to Baekje's shameless appearance, the occupied cities of Silla have been looted long ago. Silla and other things exchanged the cities from Baekje, and found that the returned cities were just empty shells. There's a whole lot of mess.

After all, the people in the city are all from Silla, so they can't just ignore their life and death, they have to give people a bite to eat. With so many mouths to eat, Silla may not be able to get over it for a few years.

Goguryeo is not much better. Now there is famine everywhere in Goguryeo, and a large area of ​​Liaodong has been lost. People in Goguryeo must have complained about Quan Gaisuwen's ruling.

As Xuan Shijing predicted, the army arrived at the Liaoshui River in less than half a month. At this time, the mud in the shoal had been filled by Xuan Shijing with [-] Goguryeo soldiers. The supplies and luggage can be easily passed through, saving a lot of time.

Xuan Shijing also returned to the army with the team, and has already started to return. Xuan Shijing is now looking forward to returning home, but no matter whether it is an officer or a soldier in the army, he cannot stay away from the army without authorization, and Xuan Shijing can only follow the army slowly. At this speed, it will take two and a half months to reach Chang'an.

The march was very boring. The only thing that made Xuan Shijing somewhat relieved was that Chang Sun Chong fell ill.

Anyway, the imperial physician couldn't find out what kind of illness, the current eldest Sun Chong has been lying in the carriage, feverish, weak all over, his whole body is very weak.

Many acts of unrighteousness will lead to self-death, the way of heaven is reincarnation, and the heavens will spare no one. Originally, Xuan Shijing had a good competition in the officialdom, and Xuan Shijing would accompany him to fight. Hands and feet, my uncle can bear it, but I can't bear it.

The medicine was prepared by Qin Bingyue, and there was no lack of Taoism behind Yan Lailou when Li Yuanjing was still in his hands. Qin Bingyue knew a lot about these things, so it would be fine to let Chang Sun Chong suffer a little bit.

Changsun Chong is already like this now, and when he returns to Chang'an, he will lose half his life.

During the march, there was an ox cart transporting supplies. Xuan Shijing lazily leaned on the sack behind the ox cart, wrapped in a big cloak, basking in the sun, while Chang Le and Shi Hu followed Xuan Shijing beside the ox cart Beside, Qin Bingyue followed behind the bullock cart with two Jinyi guards.

The two hundred government soldiers still had sandbags on their legs, but it was different from when they came, and half of them still carried the ashes of the old robes on their backs.

"Bingyue." Xuan Shijing leaned on the car and looked at Qin Bingyue and asked, "Changsun Chong's body should be able to last until Chang'an."

Qin Bingyue nodded: "Yes."

When Xuan Shijing wanted to say something, he saw Chang Le winking at him. Xuan Shijing turned around and saw that Changsun Wuji was riding towards him.

When Changsun Wuji got to Xuan Shijing's ox cart, he turned his horse's head, got close to the ox cart, followed beside the ox cart, and glanced at Chang Le.

Chang Le looked at Xuan Shijing, and Xuan Shijing nodded.

After receiving Xuan Shijing's signal, Chang Le reined in the horse and moved away from the bullock cart to give way to Changsun Wuji, while she followed beside Qin Bingyue.
