Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 1053 The Plan Can't Keep Up With Changes

Chapter [-] The plan cannot keep up with the changes
In fact, Li Shiji, like Chen Ying, was unwilling to accept Goguryeo's surrender in this way.

They managed to gather all their energy and were about to smash Goguryeo to death with one punch, but just as they raised their fists, Goguryeo raised his hand and said not to fight any more.

Not to mention Li Shiji, in fact, any Tang army officer could not accept the surrender of the Goguryeo people in his heart.

Because the Goguryeo people are professional surrenderers, as early as the eighth year of Daye, they successively made 31 surrender forms to Yang Guang, and they turned their backs immediately.

Believe it, Goguryeo surrendered.You will definitely be fooled.

Chen Ying still ate the boiled mutton in a leisurely manner. In fact, he was already full, but he habitually looked at the red oil hot pot, dazed.

At this moment, a messenger sang outside the tent: "The envoy of Gao Jianwu, king of Goguryeo, begs to see you!"

Chen Ying held a piece of meat, threw it into the pot without interest, and said, "Promote the account!"

Su Dingfang naturally knew what Chen Ying meant. Normally, under such circumstances, Chen Ying should put out the most elite troops to give the Goguryeo envoy a blow.

However, since Chen Ying did not want to accept the surrender of the Goguryeo people, he must do the opposite.

Not long after, groups of crooked soldiers replaced Chen Ying's personal guards and lined up outside the big tent.These soldiers are poorly equipped. They hold hunting bows that even Xue Yantuo people would dislike, and they wear tattered armor of unknown age. As for the soldiers, they are either thin and frighteningly thin, as if they are starving people in Africa, or they are so old that their teeth have fallen out. half.

Whether it is Anxi Army or Anton Army, it is very easy to select the elite. If you really choose these crooked melons and dates, you will lose your old nose.These armors were temporarily selected from the warehouse of the servant army, and they had some taste.These soldiers were actually prisoners of the Sui Army rescued by the Anton Army from Yalushui.

After more than ten years of torture, they have long lost their human form.

Even holding a weapon, watching the arrival of the Goguryeo envoy, I couldn't help but kneel down.

In fact, what they are most tortured is not the body, but the spirit.After more than ten years of inhuman torture, they have already accepted their fate.

For the Goguryeo envoys, Chen Ying came up and would give them a disgrace. He did not expect that the Tang army he saw turned out to be such an "elite soldier".

The messenger was secretly surprised, feeling something was wrong.

The envoy looked at the "Tang Army" around him and couldn't figure out why they attacked all the way from Liaodong to Pyongyang and defeated hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo troops.As far as the personal guards of these generals are concerned, they are not even as good as ordinary tribal troops in Goguryeo. ,

"That person should be called "Great Tang Military God Chen Ying." When the envoy saw it, he was secretly envious, and thought that when Goguryeo could have such a monarch and minister again, it would be great.

He came to Chen Ying, presented a gift neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "King of Goguryeo, I would like to extend my most sincere greetings to His Excellency General Chen from the Tang Dynasty in the West."

And reported the name.

Chen Ying did not understand Goguryeo, but Li Shiji had also recruited a large number of talents in the Andong Dufu over the past few years, and cultivated a group of talents who were proficient in Goguryeo. At this time, one stood up to translate for Chen Ying.

Chen Ying smiled slightly and said, "Our Emperor, His Majesty, likes watching Hu Xuanwu very much. Will Gao Jianwu know how to dance?"

As soon as this remark came out, the messenger's face changed drastically.

After capturing Jieli Khan, Chen Ying gave him to Li Jiancheng to help Li Jiancheng dance at the state banquet. Later, Chen Ying sent all 27 kings of Tubo Zamp Songtsen Gampo and Anxi to Chang'an , and Jieli Khan are neighbors, and now Chang'an has formed a song and dance troupe composed of kings or khans from various countries.

Of course, for the king of a country, this is simply rubbing their dignity on the ground.

The envoy said without saying a word: "Our king is not good at singing and dancing, I'm afraid it's out of style, and he can't help His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty for the time being..."

"Oh!" Chen Ying said with a look of sudden realization: "So that's the case, you can't even dance or sing, so why keep it?"

The messenger's face suddenly changed dramatically.

However, those who can be envoys are of course people who are full of wit and wit, and he immediately said with a smile on his face: "Dear General, my lord is humbled to declare to the General that for the sake of the people of the two countries, I hope that you can rest." Soldiers strike!"

Chen Ying said with a sneer: "Surrender, just surrender, don't bother me so much with this great general."

The envoy wanted to explain again, but Chen Ying stood up abruptly, pointed at the envoy and said, "If you surrender, let Gao Jianwu come in by name in front of the camp. If you fight, I will accompany you to the end!"

The envoy was taken aback. Gao Jianwu was about to surrender, and the whole Goguryeo was already boiling.In fact, no matter the subjects, they don't want to surrender to the Tang Dynasty in such a humble way.

Although Goguryeo has lost most of its territory and lost tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, they still have the power to fight and still have tens of thousands of troops.If all the people are soldiers, they can also arm at least 20 horses.

They are not willing to surrender like this.

However, Chen Ying was unwilling to accept the surrender.

This surprised the messenger, what is a hot face with a cold butt, now Gao Jianwu is that!

The envoy suppressed anger in his voice, "Why?"

From Goguryeo's point of view, Datang has no reason not to accept its own surrender, because Goguryeo is still very powerful. The reason why Goguryeo is willing to surrender is because the real leader of Goguryeo, Gao Jianwu, no longer has the will to fight.

To be more precise, in this battle outside Pyongyang, the rising star and most outstanding talent in Goguryeo, Yuan Gai Su Wen, the son of Yuan Taizuo, was beaten into a dog by Chen Ying with more than [-] steps.

Gao Jianwu has lost the confidence to fight on.

After a long period of psychological struggle, Gao Jianwu decided to surrender.From the Goguryeo people's point of view, as long as Gao Jianwu left his identity and was willing to surrender to Tang, the war should be over.

War, isn't it always like this?What Datang needs is just a name.

The current situation is not good for Goguryeo. They need time to develop and recuperate. The current surrender is only for better fighting in the future.

Chen Ying was unwilling to accept Gao Jianwu's surrender, so he was naturally clear.Once Gao Jianwu surrenders, he will still enjoy the kingship of Datang, against Lu Yuan Taizuo will even be promoted to rank, and Yuan Gai Suwen will become Goguryeo's Mo Lizhi, even against Lu, those Goguryeo nobles, Still a Goguryeo noble.

And these conditions are absolutely not acceptable to Chen Ying. If Goguryeo is willing to surrender, at least those Goguryeo ministers, nobles, and generals who participated in the battle of the Sui Dynasty must die.

They are immortal, and millions of dead souls are hard to rest in peace.

If they don't die, Goguryeo may surrender and rebel at any time.

However, the court would certainly accept Gao Jianwu's nominal surrender.

Because, the center of gravity of the Tang court has never been Goguryeo, but Li Shimin who is far away in Fusang.

Then, Chen Ying could not accept Goguryeo's surrender.

Since Chen Ying did not intend to accept surrender, he had no choice but to continue fighting.

……

After receiving the messenger's reply, Gao Jianwu lost his mind for a short time.

All the ministers in the palace were happy, especially Yuan Taizuo.

However, Gao Jianwu did not look disappointed at this time, but excitedly said: "In this battle, Chen Ying must die!"

Yuan Taizuo really didn't understand Gao Jianwu's brain circuit, and he surrendered directly before the battle officially started.Now that Chen Ying rejected Gao Jianwu's surrender, he actually said that Chen Ying must die.

The young general Hei Zi stepped forward and asked, "How can Your Majesty be so sure?"

Gao Jianwu sneered and said: "Before the battle, this king didn't know whether the subjects of the whole country were willing to fight to the end with this king. Now that Chen Ying has rejected the king's surrender, then the only thing to do is to fight to the end. Pass on this king's order and inform the whole country , the battle of Goguryeo's national destiny, this king will never retreat!"

……

According to the established plan of Chen Ying and Li Shiji, the battle will revolve around Pyongyang, luring the Goguryeo army to go to Pyongyang Qinwang, and the Tang army can use the favorable terrain to encircle and fight for reinforcements and wipe out the Goguryeo troops.

As the saying goes, plans can never keep up with changes. When Chen Ying's strategic plan was implemented step by step according to the plan, unexpected news came.

The leader of a servant army, Da He Mohui, accidentally found a Tang army in Yingzhou (now Chaoyang, Liaoning).As usual, Dahe Mohui delivered a batch of meat to this Tang army.

According to the past habits, the generals of the Tang army would give these servants a gift in return, or a knife, or a few banknotes, but this time they directly gave a batch of golden pancakes.

This made Dahemo feel very strange. Although gold is good, it is not what it used to be.

In the past, gold was a hard currency on the grasslands and could be used directly as money.But now the caravans going to and from the grasslands are unwilling to accept gold, because they need to transport it back. The most important thing is that they accept the money transaction from Tongli Bank, and they are used to using light money.

These tribal leaders all went to Lingzhou, Shuozhou, Yunzhou, Yizhou or Jizhou to exchange their gold for banknotes in advance.As for the generals of the Tang army, no one held gold at all. Even if the gold was seized on the battlefield, it would be directly traded with the caravan accompanying the army, and most of them would be exchanged for money, which was convenient to carry.

One hundred catties of gold can be exchanged for ten thousand coins.There are only [-] hundred banknotes, and no one will know if you put them in your pocket casually, but carrying a hundred catties of gold on your back will never die from exhaustion.

This abnormal situation made Dahemo feel that something was wrong.As a result, after approaching for reconnaissance, it was discovered that more than [-]% of this so-called Tang army was a group of savages. They spoke a language that Dahemohui had never heard before. The Hufu reported this situation.

When he learned that the Anton Protectorate's Mansion had no troops outside the city of Yingzhou, the Dahe Mohui led the trilogy and surrounded the troops.

As a result, seeing that the situation was not good, this army immediately broke through.

After all, the Dahemo Club was not the elite of the Tang army. They did not capture all of this "Tang Army", but ran away with 600 people. The casualties of the Dahemo Club were as high as [-] people.The hundreds of natives who were captured were all damned enemies in the eyes of the Dahemo Society.

So according to the traditional habits, Dahemo will prepare to kill all these captives.However, at the most critical moment, a general of this army directly stated that he was Li Shiji's old friend and asked to see Li Shiji.

Dahe Mohui didn't dare to neglect, he just took this general of the Tang Army and drove all the way to the city of Pyongyang to meet Li Shiji.

When Li Shiji looked at this general pretending to be Tang Jun, he felt vaguely familiar.

It seems to have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while.

In the end, this "Tang Army" general shouted to Li Shiji with a pure Lu accent: "Shibo save me, Shibo save me..."

Now, Li Shiji discovered that this general was actually Cheng Chusi, the son of the old Cheng Zhijie.

Li Shiji looked at Cheng Chusi in surprise and said, "You little bastard, why are you here?"

Cheng Chusi didn't answer yet.

Chen Ying looked at Cheng Chusi sharply and said, "Did you come from the overpass?"

Cheng Chusi is young after all, he has never met Chen Ying.

Of course, he had heard of Chen Ying's name, and thought that Chen Ying was just Li Shiji's subordinate.

Cheng Chusi asked in surprise, "How do you know?"

After saying this, Cheng Chusi immediately regretted it.

Chen Ying didn't ask Cheng Chusi again, but looked at Da Hemo and said, "Has anyone else escaped?"

Dahemo would say: "No...!"

It was very uncomfortable to be stared at by Chen Ying's sharp eyes, and Da He Mo would immediately change his words: "Five or six hundred people escaped!"

"Send people immediately to recover them!"

After saying this, Chen Ying regretted it.

Da Hemo would have started chasing them immediately, or had a chance to catch up with them.

It's too late now.

I am afraid that Cheng Chusi's trilogy has already crossed the flyover.

Chen Ying felt that the matter was of great importance, looked at Li Shiji and said, "General Li, I will leave the war in Pyongyang to you, and I will return to Chang'an soon!"
