Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 204 Chapter 212: Breaking through Gaochang

Lu Yun was in a daze, and the generals were also in a daze. Before the army formation, how chilling the field was. As the chief officer of the army, Li Hao's words and deeds made people feel like he was joking.

At this time, in the main hall of Gaochang Palace, Qu Zhisheng was pacing back and forth anxiously, all the civil and military ministers lowered their heads, and the hall was quiet, only the sound of Qu Zhisheng's footsteps remained.

"Everyone is talking! Are you all dumb?" Qu Zhisheng shouted anxiously.

"Your Majesty." A grey-haired old man said slowly, "Although the Tang army is strong, it has been easy to defend the city since ancient times, but difficult to attack it. We have an army of [-] in the city. The Tang army is not as large as ours. Forgive them and it will be difficult for them to attack the city."

"That's right, Your Majesty doesn't have to be so anxious." An old man beside him also echoed.

"Oh? Really?" Qu Zhisheng snorted coldly with staring eyes, "Jiaohe City has [-] troops, but it was captured by the Tang army within half an hour, half an hour!"

The ministers were silent for a while when they heard the words. Indeed, the Tang army was too strong. It took half an hour to take down a city defended by more than 4000 troops. This is simply shocking.

After a while, a middle-aged man with a goatee came out and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you ask for peace."

"Seek peace?" Qu Zhisheng rolled his eyes, spread his hands and said, "Tell me, how to ask for peace, Tang Jun has traveled thousands of miles, and will easily agree to negotiate peace?"

The goatee smiled and said confidently: "Your Majesty, there is no eternal friendship between countries, only eternal interests. As long as we can provide conditions that satisfy the Tang army, the peace negotiation will be successful."

Qu Zhisheng's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he said excitedly, "Pang Qing, keep talking."

"Yes." Goatee nodded and continued, "The Tang army's invasion this time is naturally because of our invasion of Tingzhou. Your Majesty only needs to agree to kill the coach and generals who invaded Tingzhou to relieve the Tang army. Of course. , This sentence is just a small talk. After all, none of the generals and commanders who invaded Tingzhou have returned. The Tang Dynasty has always regarded itself as a country of benevolence and righteousness and a state of etiquette. Pay a tribute of ten thousand taels of gold every year, and in this way, the Tang Dynasty will gain both fame and fortune, and the peace negotiation can be achieved."

"Okay!" Qu Zhisheng clapped his hands happily when he heard the words, pointed to the goatee, and praised happily, "Pang Aiqing is really good at making decisions, and I will ask you to do peace negotiations. If the commander of Tang Jun thinks that gold is not enough , this king can add more, as long as the peace negotiation is successful, this king will immediately make you a chancellor, and add the title of Gaochang Chenggong."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The goatee was overjoyed when he heard the words, and retreated under his orders.

Li Hao has sent people to yell at the city to persuade him to surrender. He has already decided that if he does not attack the city today, he will persuade him to surrender. First, he will shake the hearts of the nobles in Gaochang. The nobles are the most powerful force in Gaochang, and they can almost restrain the king. A reliable group of people, they are greedy for glory and wealth, and are even more afraid of death. At this juncture, those nobles cannot unswervingly support Qu Zhisheng. On the surface, Li Hao is trying to persuade Qu Zhisheng to surrender, but in fact he is trying to persuade those Nobles, let Gaochang stir up chaos from within.

Li Hao's approach was somewhat effective. Not long after the persuasion was carried out, the group of nobles united and went to the gate of the Gaochang Palace to see Qu Zhisheng. They all begged Qu Zhisheng to offer the city to surrender, but Qu Zhisheng was very angry. , I can't wait to kill all these guys.

However, he also knows that these nobles are inextricably linked with many ministers in the court. With his hands, the whole Gaochang was in chaos. How could he cause internal strife in the city at such a critical moment, so he suppressed his anger and interviewed the nobles, tried to persuade them, reassured them, and said that he had a way to deal with the Tang army.

Just when Qu Zhisheng was persuading the nobles, the minister with the goatee had already come out of the city gate and went to the Tang army camp alone to negotiate a peace.

Li Hao was studying the method of attacking Gaochang City with the generals around the sand table in the dental tent, when a guard came to report outside: "Military Advisor, the envoy of Gaochang is here to see you!"

"Oh?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows and raised his voice, "Let him in."

The goatee raised the curtain and entered the dental tent. He was taken aback when he saw more than a dozen people standing in the dental tent, and when he saw the sand table, his face turned ashen. However, he forced himself to calm down, and then saluted Li Hao, saying: : "Pang Guang, the envoy of Gaochang, pays homage to the generals of the Tang Dynasty, and the marshal of the Tang Dynasty."

After Li Hao heard his name, his expression became very exciting: "What did you say was your name?"

"Pang Guang." Pang Guang replied with a serious nod.

"Pfft——" Li Hao couldn't hold back, and burst into laughter, and then laughed wildly with his stomach in his hands. Everyone in the account looked at him in bewilderment, not knowing why he was fussing.

"Wait...wait a minute...let me...laugh for a while...haha..." Li Hao laughed while clutching his stomach, a little out of breath, it was difficult to speak, and Pang Guang also had a confused and innocent face, he didn't know the truth What is the situation of Tang's coach, what is so funny.

"Ahem..." Lu Yun coughed hard and kept looking at Li Hao.

Li Hao finally regained his composure, and realized that he was really ashamed. He hurriedly put away his smiling face, straightened his clothes, and said solemnly, "Qian Lixian...ah bah! Pang Guang..." As soon as Li Hao heard Pang Guang thought of the bladder, and when he thought of the bladder, he naturally thought of Qian Lixian, so now he called his name wrong when he opened his mouth.

"Pang Guang!" Li Hao finally asked seriously, "Your king Qu Zhisheng came to negotiate?"

Now that Gaochang City is in the period of national mourning, even the top of the city is covered with white cloth, Li Hao wondered if Qu Wentai died.

Pang Guang bowed his hands and said, "Yes, I was entrusted by the king to negotiate with Marshal Li."

"What else is there to talk about?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "Let Qu Zhisheng bind himself out of the city and accept the surrender, otherwise our military division will take your shit Gaochang City directly regardless of whether you are in national mourning or not!"

Hearing this, Pang Guang frowned and said, "Why is Marshal Li so angry?"

He raised his hand sharply to stop him: "Don't call me Marshal, call me military division."

"Okay, Junshi Li." Pang Guang said slowly, "Why should Junshi Li be so angry? It is absolutely impossible for our king to bind himself out of the city and surrender, but Junshi Li wants to break through our Gaochang City. It's so easy, even if Junshi Li can capture Gaochang, I'm afraid he will suffer heavy losses, I don't know if Junshi Li has thought about this."

"Hehe, you are really good at flattering yourselves." Li Hao sneered, "I have seen the combat power of your Gaochang sergeants before, and it is simply vulnerable to a single blow. To take down your shitty Gaochang City, my army division even It will be gone in three days, believe it or not."

Pang Guang was annoyed when he heard the words, he thought that Li Hao was really too young, he didn't understand national interests at all, he just knew how to fight and kill.So he continued to persuade: "Mr. Li, even if you capture Gaochang, what good will it do for Datang? Why don't you all sit down and have a good talk, and discuss a safe way that can not only preserve Gaochang, but also let Datang The most profitable, what do you think?"

"Hehe, the most profit?" Li Hao sneered and raised his eyebrows, "Then you tell me, how can I make the most profit for Datang?"

Pang Guangdao: "My king has promised that as long as Tian Khan is willing to withdraw his troops, he is willing to kill all the generals and commanders who invaded Tingzhou. At the same time, he is willing to worship Datang as the suzerain state, bow his head and profess his minister, and pay 1 taels of gold every year."

"Hehe, suzerain country? 1 taels of gold per year?" Li Hao sneered with his hands behind his back.

Pang Guang saw that Li Hao was full of disdain, and hurriedly increased the price: "If Master Li thinks it is not enough, then add another 1 taels, and pay 20 pieces of gold every year. According to Datang, that is [-] guan!"

"Hmph..." Li Hao continued to sneer.

Seeing this, Pang Guang couldn't help frowning. It seemed that the young commander of the Tang Dynasty had a relatively large appetite, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. More." After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and sneaked a peek at Li Hao from the corner of his eye to see his reaction.

Li Hao asked with a playful smile, "Are you rich in Gaochang?"

Pang Guang knew that he was being sarcastic, so he could only put on a bitter face and said, "This is the strength of my Gaochang, and it also shows the sincerity of my King Gaochang."

"Sincerity?" Li Hao paced slowly, and asked with a smile, "This military commander asks you, you Gaochang is located in the desert, and you don't do agricultural production. Where did your money... come from?"

Pang Guang was shocked when he heard the words, and a thin layer of sweat oozed from his forehead. He couldn't answer this question. Although he knew the answer, he couldn't say it.

"Can't you answer?" Li Hao said slowly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "I will answer for you, my military adviser. Your Gaochang money is obtained by exploiting and robbing caravans on the Silk Road. On the Silk Road, The biggest gang of horse bandits is your Gaochang country."

Pang Guang's back was instantly wet with sweat, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. He was about to argue a few words, but Li Hao suddenly said coldly: "You Gaochang have done so many years of nasty things, you really think we are wise and powerful!" Does His Majesty Tian Khan know nothing about it? We just don’t care about you. Now, Tian Khan is furious and raised his troops to attack. You still want to retreat completely, which is really fantastic."

Pang Guang suddenly knelt down on the ground and said anxiously: "Mr. Li, our new king has already reflected on his mistakes and is determined to repent. He will never dare again. As long as the military master intercedes with God Khan on our behalf, our king is willing to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty every year." 5 taels of gold, and another 5 taels of gold as a reward for the military advisor..."

"Bastard!" Li Hao stared at him, bursting out with awe-inspiring power, and shouted, "Gaochang, a despicable small country, dares to try to buy this military division, it is just asking for death! Come on!"

Feiying and Cheetah strode into the dental tent and knelt down on one knee: "What orders does the military advisor have?"

Li Hao's eyes were like lightning, and he shouted awe-inspiringly: "Gaochang is a small country, despicable and shameless, if you want to buy the commander-in-chief of the Tang Dynasty with a lot of money, you will be punished, take this person down and behead him!"

"Ah!" Pang Guang was so scared that he peed his pants immediately when he heard the words, and yelled in panic, "Marshal Li, you can't kill me. I am an envoy sent by King Gaochang. The two armies are at war, and if you don't kill me..."

"What kind of envoy are you!" Li Hao said in a thunderous voice, "How dare you spend a lot of money to buy the Tang commander in the middle of the army. You have a wicked plan, and you should be executed for the crime. If you drag it down, you will be executed! Hang your head on the flagpole!"

"Yes!" Flying Eagle and Cheetah both stepped forward, dragging Pang Guang away.

"You can't kill me, I'm the envoy of Gaochang, you can't kill me, the two armies are at war, if you don't behead the envoy! You Tang Dynasty is a country of benevolence and righteousness, a state of etiquette..." Pang Guang struggled desperately, hissed, and passed After a while, there was a scream of "ah", and the sound stopped abruptly.

Pang Guang's head was hanging on the flagpole, swaying, Li Hao led the generals out of the dental tent, looked at Pang Guang's head, and said coldly: "The small barbarian country wants to use the big hat of benevolence, righteousness and etiquette to overwhelm I, this time I don’t want you to have a taste of my Great Tang’s military prowess, the world really thinks that my Great Tang can be bullied, pass on my military order, and at tomorrow’s hour, the school field will call in soldiers!”
