Ji Tang

Chapter 817 Go back?Why go back?
"So your Majesty and the others are all in Liaodong at this time?"

After hearing Liu Laoer's account of what happened during this period, Tang Jian and others were amazed at the changes in the world and at the same time surprised by the great actions of the court.

He was not surprised at all when they attacked Goguryeo. If not for the weakening of the Tang Dynasty in the early days of the founding of the country, and the resistance of the various regions to rebel against the king, and the constraints of the powerful families, he would have attacked Goguryeo long ago.

It is commendable that Your Majesty has endured until now.

"Yes, not only is His Majesty in Liaodong, but also my Marquis is also in Liaodong at this time. If nothing else happens, the entire Liaodong Peninsula is already under the rule of the Tang Dynasty."

Hearing this, Tang Jian was shocked. How could he not know how difficult Liaodong was?But according to Liu Laoer, the Liaodong Peninsula was already captured within just half a month of the expedition?
How can this be?

Liu Laoer curled his lips and thought, "With the power of gunpowder, what can a mere city wall do to me?"Wouldn't it be better to pass through and destroy the city and people?

"Okay, it's time to say it. I basically said it. A lot of things did happen in the past ten years. You should wait until you return to Chang'an to talk about the details!"

"Now let's go back quickly. I have just informed my Lord Marquis of your return. I believe I will receive the news soon!"

Ji Qing and others were very excited when they heard this. They would be able to see their husband soon. How could this not make them happy?
"Go back? Why go back?"

Tang Jian suddenly stood up and said.

Everyone was shocked and looked at Tang Jian. They were obviously going back soon, why didn't they go back now?
Seeing the confused looks in everyone's eyes, Old God Tang Jian said: "Have you ever thought about it? We will disappear for ten years, ten years!"

"How many people still remember us and our long-distance fleet? We worked hard for ten years and then went back silently?"

"Are you willing?"

Ji Qing was stunned for a moment, then thought, yes, ten years, what a long time it is.They moved forward with heavy burdens, giving up their comfortable environment and bright future, and spent ten years looking for crops for Datang that had no idea how effective they were.

But ten years have passed. Apart from them, how many people in the Tang Dynasty still remember them?Remember their silent contribution to Datang?

No!

You must not go back in obscurity like this. Even if you want to go back, you must go back openly and with full honor.

This is not only an affirmation for them, but also an explanation for the dead soldiers.They died in a foreign land, no one knew their names, let alone cared about them.

But they can't. After ten years of getting along, they have long become the closest partners.

They want to fight for the glory they deserve for their dead brothers, and let their deeds be admired by future generations. They are the heroes of the Tang Dynasty.

There are also living people who have gone through hardships and dangers and been born and died many times. For what reason?Is it just money?
No.

If it were just money, after they found the gold mine and picked up natural gold at will, their goal would have been achieved.

Everyone went crazy after learning that there was a grain yield of ten shi per acre here.They are all children of farmers, and no one knows better than them what this amazing grain yield represents.

There is no longer famine, people are no longer starving to death, and they are no longer helpless when their loved ones are about to starve to death.

By then, they no longer care about gold.

Food, food, food that can feed their families, tribesmen, and even everyone in the world is what keeps them going.

There were not only three kinds of food, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn, but there were also many things they had never seen before, but they could all eat them.These are what they need, and no one can stop their desire to get them.

If so, then he is their mortal enemy, a mortal enemy who will never stop fighting!

Three thousand elite soldiers, wearing the strongest armor and the sharpest swords in the Tang Dynasty.But even this killed nearly a third of the people. It was already difficult for them not to collapse.

Therefore, whether it is for the dead or the living, they do not allow the soldiers to remain unknown.

"Not reconciled!"

"Of course we are not reconciled!"

"The soldiers sacrificed their lives to obtain excellent grain seeds for the Tang Dynasty that could be used for eternity. As long as they are cultivated for several generations and spread throughout the world, the entire world will have food for the people. Such an unparalleled achievement, such a Shouldn’t everyone in the world know about his deeds?”

Ji Qing's words silenced everyone. Yes, who doesn't want Qing to leave his name in history and leave his legacy to future generations?

Are they really willing to just go back quietly?

"Tang Gong, just tell me, what do you want us to do? As long as we can do it, we will never refuse!"

Xue Li is a passionate person, and now his heart is surging even more. He can no longer control himself!

"Yes, just say it! For the sake of the dead soldiers and us living people, we cannot accept their obscurity."

"."

Tang Jian nodded with satisfaction and said: "Normally, there is nothing I can do, but now Your Majesty and the others are attacking Goguryeo, with a total of 20 troops gathered. It can be said that this is the most powerful time since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. If you don't know, that's all. But now we happen to meet him, how can we let this opportunity pass?"

"The news of our return has not spread yet. It is when the enemy is exposed and we are hidden, and we are in the north of the hinterland of Goguryeo. As long as we are caught by surprise, what we want to do should not be too easy."

"I have been to Goguryeo before and am quite familiar with it. According to what Liu Laoer said, Goguryeo was in civil strife at this time and Yeon Gaesumun was in power. Your Majesty was also aggressively attacking cities and plundering territory in Liaodong. In order to reach the northern part of Goguryeo, they were simply beyond their reach."

"There are Buyeo, Sushen and other tributary states of the Tang Dynasty to the north of Goguryeo. As long as we go to lobby, we can naturally attract a large number of troops. Your Majesty is attacking the place in the north, and Yeon Gaesumun has to deal with you. There are good princes in the south to contain the enemy. Reinforcements. When the time comes, our troops will march south to the north of Goguryeo, where there is nothing but plain water. As long as we have an elite cavalry, we will be able to do whatever we want here."

"If we are lucky, it is not impossible to capture Yeongaesomun and attack Pingxiang, the capital of Goguryeo."

As Tang Jian spoke, both Ji Qing and others, as well as Liu Laoer, stared at Tang Jian in disbelief.

"No, I object!"

Liu Laoer regained his composure and said to Tang Jian unceremoniously: "Don't try to seduce these children. You almost caused heavy losses to the entire fleet. Of course you want to make meritorious deeds, but how can you let these children die?"

"Anyway, I want you to go. Ji Qing and the others must not go. My mission is to find them and bring them back to Chang'an safely. I don't care about the others, but they can't!"

Liu Laoer's reaction was already within Tang Jian's expectation, but he was not worried at all. He looked at Ji Qing and the others with a smile, waiting for their decision!

"Ji Qing, don't be stupid!"

Seeing that several people were a little moved, Liu Laoer suddenly felt that something was wrong.
