Zhenguan's prosperity and fame

Chapter 397 Goguryeo Coup

Chapter 397 Goguryeo Coup

Wang Xuan'er also stayed in the fishing village, living with Qin Chang, and took over the task of taking care of the little girl from Li Fangchen.

Qin Chang didn't object to Wang Xuan'er's arrival, but sometimes he was worried that this new big sister would snatch her best brother away.

Besides, Li Tai is the happiest person.

Going out to sea with Li Fangchen and tasting the delicacies in the sea, I have never felt this kind of freedom and indulgence for a long time.

It has to be said that Li Tai began to like the monotonous but not boring life by the sea.

Rising from the morning sun, returning to the evening sun, living by the sea, and living by the sea.

Relatively speaking, Chang'an is even more noisy.

As mentioned before, Goguryeo handed over the artillery production method to Shi Wei, and the condition was that Shi Wei would be hostile to Datang.

In the face of huge benefits, Shi Wei did not hesitate, and quickly gathered 2 people to march towards Datang North Road.

Li Shimin was furious, and ordered Li Xiaogong, king of Hejian County, to lead [-] troops to garrison Hebei Road.

As the initiator of this war, Goguryeo had a sudden coup, and Gao Jianwu, who had long been emptied, was completely lifted by Yuan Gai Suwen to the last layer of fig leaf.

In three days, Yuan Gai Su Wen proclaimed himself king, followed by the news that Yuan Gai Su Wen sent troops to punish Tang.

It stands to reason that Gao Jianwu was the king of Rongliu established by the Tang Dynasty. Now that Gao Jianwu is dead, Yuan Gai Suwen, the judge, has become the "master" of Goguryeo.

Shi Wei's [-] soldiers and horses were just a cover. Whether Shi Wei will continue to increase his troops and the attitude of Goguryeo are the most critical issues.

Li Xiaogong didn't dare to hesitate, and rushed to garrison in Yingzhou, Liaocheng and other places in Hebei Province.

The supremacy of Yuan Gai Su Wen did not disrupt Shi Wei's determination to attack Datang.

After speculation by court officials, it can be confirmed that Goguryeo was controlled by Yuan Gaisuwen a few years ago.

The deal with Shi Wei was also facilitated by Yuan Gai Suwen.

Li Shimin scolded and said angrily: "Yuan Gai Su Wen, he used Shi Wei's hand to divert Datang's attention, so that he could plot rebellion. After he really takes power, Datang may have no excuse to send troops to Goguryeo!"

In the same month, Goguryeo raised [-] troops, intending to join forces with Shi Wei and punish Datang together.

Shiwei's army gathered 3000 meters away from Liaocheng, but Goguryeo's reinforcements have not been seen for a long time.

Li Xiaogong didn't want to wait for the two to meet, so he immediately made a decision to hit Shi Wei first.

[-] against [-], no accident, Shi Wei was defeated.

9000 people were captured, and the rest have been turned into handfuls of loess.

After fighting for seven days, there was still no reinforcements from Goguryeo.

Out of curiosity, afraid of spies to investigate, but found that Goguryeo had other plans.

With the power of artillery, Goguryeo went down three cities in seven days, an army of [-] swept Silla, and Baekje was beaten to a half. In a few days, the two countries would be annexed by Goguryeo.

Chasing away wolves, borrowing knives to kill people, and even fishing in troubled waters.

Goguryeo's wishful thinking this time was so clever that Datang was so busy fighting Shiwei that he never noticed Goguryeo's tricks.

With the emergence of artillery and gunpowder, the speed of war has been accelerated countless times.

Goguryeo, which was already strong and powerful, borrowed Shi Wei's name, which not only disturbed Datang's sight, but also made Silla and Baekje lose their vigilance.

When all the dust settled, everyone couldn't help applauding Yuan Gai Suwen.

Silla was gone, and Baekje was also surrendered. Yuangai Suwen's letter of credence was sent to Chang'an, requesting to become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.

As for Shi Wei?

Who cares?

He lost 2 people and was severely slapped in the face by Datang. Although he got the secret formula of artillery, it also completely angered the overlord.

In one month, the world will be turned upside down, and the territory of Goguryeo will be tripled. If it is not for the shipbuilding level that cannot keep up, I am afraid that people will have been sent across the ocean by now to plan Wa Island.

Today's eldest prince of Goguryeo, the eldest son of Yuangai Suwen, Yuannan, came to Chang'an City from Goguryeo.

As a country of Goguryeo, which has been deeply influenced by Han culture, it is very proficient in the etiquette and language of the Tang Dynasty.

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Mr. Yuan Gai Su Wen, on behalf of my father Wang Yuan, send you my greetings!"

On the third day after Yuan's boy arrived in Chang'an, Li Shimin summoned him to court.

Facing all the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty, the boy Yuan didn't feel any nervousness, but was polite and polite, which made people look very surprised.

If it hadn't been for his identity, which had already shown that he was not from the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that in terms of temperament, he would be no different from the noble family of the Tang Dynasty.

Boy Yuan's posture is very low, and he came here this time under Yuan Gaisuwen's order to ease the relationship with Datang, so that Datang would not send troops to conquest when Goguryeo's national strength was unstable.

Li Shimin looked at Boy Yuan with great interest, "Yuan Gai Suwen called you to Chang'an, what is the plan?"

Yuan Gai Suwen presented the letter of credence and the treasures brought from the Goguryeo Kingdom, and respectfully said: "May the friendship between Goguryeo and Datang last forever. My father hopes to be rewarded by His Majesty, and Yuan Boy also hopes to be rewarded by His Majesty." Ask to marry a princess of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Let's not talk about marriage first, why did I give Yuan Gai Su Wen a reward? Doesn't he know that Gao Jianwu is the King of Rongliu who was proclaimed by the Tang Dynasty. He killed the lord and ascended the throne. According to my Tang law, he can be punished with heavy soldiers!"

Boy Yuan had expected it a long time ago, and calmly said: "Your Majesty, what Gao Jianwu can do, my father Yuan Gai Suwen can also do. What Gao Jianwu can't do, my father Yuan Gai Suwen can still do. My minister here, There is another important gift to give to Datang!"

Li Shimin became interested, and couldn't help but said: "I would like to know, what is the important gift in your mouth?"

Boy Yuan nodded, took out a letter from his bosom, handed it to the court servant, and asked him to present it to the saint.

Li Shimin was shocked when he saw it, he stood up and said in surprise: "Is this true?"

All the officials were surprised and curious about what was written in the letter.

Boy Yuan bowed and said, "Young Minister of Goguryeo, I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

This ceremony represented Goguryeo's surrender to the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin was moved by a letter, the contents of which surprised him so much that he couldn't even refuse, "I want to see the result, if this can come true, I will grant him the throne of Su Wen!"

"Yuan boy takes the place of his father, thank you Your Majesty!"

What is the reason why Li Shimin is so caring?
It is said that after the dynasty was dispersed, Li Shimin summoned important ministers to discuss matters in the Taiji Hall, and the most important thing was the content of the letter.

It seems that all the courtiers expressed their support for this incident, apart from being shocked.After all, if this thing can really be done, it is enough to be called an incomparable achievement!
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo three times, and lost countless soldiers. Goguryeo's policy of fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness, coupled with its strong military strength, caused countless Sui Dynasty men to die in other countries.

Goguryeo even built three Jingguan to emphasize the fact that the Sui Dynasty was defeated by three expeditions.

How profound is the meaning of the three Beijing Temples?

Under each Beijing Temple, there are countless bones of Chinese men buried, and every Beijing Temple is made of flesh and blood of Chinese men!
Now that Yuan Gai Su Wen came to power, the first way to ease the relationship with Datang was to demolish the Jingguan and send the bones of the Sui army soldiers back to Datang.

How could Li Shimin not agree?
It is Li Shimin's obsession to welcome back the bones of the ancestors.

It should be known that Li Yuan was also a general who followed Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty to conquer the East.

Li Yuan's resentment for the Sui Dynasty's defeat to Goguryeo even affected Li Shimin. After he ascended the throne, Li Shimin thought that one day he would be able to conquer in person.

What he Sui Yangdi could not do, I, Li Shimin, can do!
How can I not get the credit for being delivered to my door now?
Goguryeo obediently dismantled the capital and sent back the remains of Sui warriors. If word of this spread, he, Li Shimin, would be admired by the world.

In addition, there is one more thing, and that is the artillery of Goguryeo.

If Datang launches troops against Goguryeo, the outcome cannot be determined.

Today's Datang is not yet ready to go to war with Goguryeo!

 Thank you for the 100 starting coins rewarded by Mini Dou!
