Goguryeo Baoshan Wang Gaojin negotiated with Yuwenshu on behalf of Gao Yuan. Originally, Yuwenshu's attitude was still very tough, and Gaoyuan, the king of Goguryeo, had to come to the negotiation in person. However, Liu Shilong, the supervising army, stepped forward at this time and seriously accused Yuwenshu of being such a powerless country. Feng Fan's approach is wrong. Since the Koreans have shown sincerity, as the marshal of the expeditionary force of the world's largest country, they cannot lose the face of a great country, let alone His Majesty Ren Yi.

Liu Shilong said: "In matters of military affairs, I know that I am a layman, so I seldom say anything, but in matters of surrender, I can no longer just watch you get confused and let it go. The Koreans are cunning and rough, and now they are taking advantage of the army. If he is not subdued as soon as possible, he will be beaten again. Gao Jin is Gao Yuan's younger brother. Gao Yuan's sending him here is enough to show his sincerity. If it continues to delay like this Bad for us?"

Yu Wenshu said coldly: "The superintendent also knows that our situation is very unfavorable now? If the superintendent hadn't been kind enough to let Ulji Wende go away that day, the army has already returned and is about to cross the Mazi River!"

Liu Shilong said sternly: "Your Majesty said that if the Koreans surrender, they should not be treated slowly. This official has always been loyal to the emperor, and everything is done according to His Majesty's orders. General Yuwen doesn't have to speak so harshly. After returning to Liaodong, Your Majesty I will naturally have an explanation in front of me. However, if you continue to shirk and refuse to agree to Gao Jin's peace proposal today, I will immediately write a memorial and send someone to rush back to submit it to His Majesty, accusing you of deceiving the king and the country. !"

Yu Wenshu said angrily: "If Lord Supervisor wants to sue, is it possible that I am afraid of you before His Majesty?"

General Yu Zhongwen of Youwei hurriedly stopped in front of Yu Wenshu and said, "Obviously it was the Goguryeo people who asked for peace, why is there no one on our side who is happy? This time, a large army can come to the city of Pyongyang and force Gao Yuan to become a minister. After returning The Marshal and the Superintendent have made great contributions, and the most important thing is that His Majesty is happy..."

If he looked at Liu Shilong meaningfully, the latter knew that Yu Zhongwen was telling him not to make too much trouble, after all, he was the emperor who made atonement for him as the supervisor of the army.

Although he understood, Yu Zhongwen's eyes disliked him very much.

Obviously he is also a body to wear a crime!

Liu Shilong thought angrily, Commander Yu Wenshu's entire army attacked Liaodong City for several months, obviously he is also a guilty body, as the supervisor of the army, as the recruiter, why should I act based on his face?If this errand was not done well, wouldn't it be difficult for His Majesty to explain himself in front of him?Look at the faces of the people in this room, as if I am the sinner.

"As for the matter of surrender, I am ordered by His Majesty, so I will not give up an inch!"

Liu Shilong gritted his teeth and said: "If you don't accept Gao Jin's peace request today, don't blame me for exercising the power of supervising the army!"

Yu Wenshu was taken aback, and said angrily: "The Goguryeo people are fools? The conditions they put forward are also vassals? I'm afraid Gao Jin has already seen the lack of food in our army, so now he is deliberately delaying time to test our reaction! If Gao Jincai proposed the conditions, wouldn’t you let the Koreans guess the truth of our army if you agreed immediately? In this situation, even if you have to bite the bullet, you have to hold on!”

Liu Shilong snorted coldly and said, "General Yuwen, I don't take part in military matters, and I don't care how you try to solve them. As the envoy to surrender, I have to be responsible for Your Majesty!"

Yu Zhongwen sighed for a long time, looked at Yuwen and said: "Marshal...in my opinion...we really can't stand it anymore, the soldiers have already started today, whether they are fighting or not, everyone only has half a bowl If you don’t go back to the division with gruel to satisfy your hunger, I’m afraid the morale of the army will be unstable..."

Yu Wenshu glared at him, and wanted to say that if you weren't incompetent that day, wouldn't the army be in the predicament it is today?Ulji Wende was let go, and now the two are standing together and talking.Yu Wenshu was angry and angry, and he also knew that what Yu Zhongwen said was actually reasonable. What he was worried about was that the Goguryeo people would find out the truth about the fact that the army had no food, and they would attract endless attacks. What Yu Zhongwen was worried about was that the more it dragged on, the worse the situation would be. .Yu Wenshu thought for a while, and had to sigh: "Well, the supervisor will go to accept the surrender tomorrow, and the army will return tomorrow afternoon. Remember..."

Yu Wenshu looked at Yu Zhongwen and said word by word: "Send Gao Jin back!"

Yu Zhongwen was taken aback for a moment, but then he understood.On the contrary, Liu Shilong thought that Yu Wenshu was still mocking him for letting Ulji Wende go, so he flicked his sleeves and left in anger.

The next day, Liu Shilong accepted the letter of credence submitted by Gao Jin as an envoy to surrender. Gao Jin, on behalf of King Gao Yuan of Koryo, recognized Goguryeo as a vassal state of the Sui Dynasty. , and even the age-old tribute to the Great Sui each year is not clearly written down.Regarding the Great Sui Expedition, although the provision of food and grass supplies consumed by Koguryo compensation mentioned in it was written, there is no doubt that the Sui army can't wait for Goguryeo to piece together the "compensation".The Sui army is now in a cruel and embarrassing situation, without food, but they dare not urge the Koreans to pay compensation for food and grass, because that will show their feet.He didn't dare to retreat too hastily, and he had to put on a posture of retreating slowly. Only the Sui people knew the pain of this.

Finally, as of today, the Sui army's expedition ended in a not too ugly way.In any case, it is a fact that the siege of Pyongyang City forced Gao Yuan to sign an alliance under the city.Of course, this kind of end was determined in advance in Yu Wenshu's regretful thoughts. In fact, the Sui army's expedition was far from over.

After Liu Shilong signed the letter of credence with Gao Jin, he took Gao Jin's hand and said with a smile: "From now on, you and I will be colleagues, and we are all servants of His Majesty. Don't mention any unhappy things in the past."

Gao Jinpi smiled and said: "As Lord Liu said, you and I will get closer in the future."

He saluted Liu Shilong: "Since it's over, I'm going to rush back to Pyongyang City to announce the good news to my king. In addition, I also need to make preparations to transport food and supplies from the city to the camp."

Yu Zhongwen said: "Since King Baoshan wants to go back, I will personally send you out of the camp."

Gao Jin was obviously taken aback, and asked subconsciously: "The general wants to send me off personally?"

Yu Zhongwen said with a smile: "Why, King Baoshan is not willing?"

Gao Jin quickly shook his head and said, "I thought the general was joking with me."

Just as Yu Zhongwen was about to speak, he heard Liu Shilong sneer and said: "General Yu is of course joking with you. Since King Baoshan is here today, don't rush to go back. As for announcing the good news to King Koryo, just send someone there at will." Yes. My Majesty the Sui Emperor told me that I must take the Koryo envoys back to Liaodong City. Since His Majesty has this order, King Baoshan, I think you should stay in the camp and go to face the saint with me! "

Yu Zhongwen and Gao Jin were taken aback at the same time.

"What do you mean?"

"What does Master Liu mean?"

The two asked almost simultaneously.

Liu Shilong sneered and said: "What do you mean? If you enter my camp today, you will never go out again. Someone, please ask Baoshan King to rest in the army tent, and tell Baoshan King's followers to tell the King of Korea, just say Baoshan The king will go back to Liaodong City with the army to meet His Majesty the Sui Emperor!"

"No!"

Yu Zhongwen stopped in front of Liu Shilong and said, "Supervisor, don't do this!"

"Why?"

Liu Shilong squinted his eyes at Yu Zhongwen, and asked with a smug smile.

It's just that he didn't mean that Zhongwen explained it, so he said more proudly: "Do you really understand military affairs when you are a supervisor? Even if you don't understand military affairs, you will learn a lot of wisdom. This time, you won't know what to say." Then let the Goguryeo people go away. Didn't Yu Wenshu want to sue me in front of His Majesty, this time I will detain Gao Jin and see what he has to say in front of His Majesty!"

Liu Shilong's personal soldiers rushed in and took Gao Jin into custody without any explanation.Yu Zhongwen tried hard to persuade, but Liu Shilong just didn't listen.Yu Zhongwen quickly sent someone to invite Yu Wenshu, and ordered Gao Jin's entourage not to be released yet.Unexpectedly, Liu Shilong firmly believed that Yu Zhongwen and Yu Wenshu were going to join forces to harm him, so he ordered his soldiers to block Zhongwen in the big tent and not let him out, but drove Gao Jin's followers out of the camp.

When Yu Wenshu learned about it, Gao Jin's entourage had already entered Pyongyang City in a hurry, and not long after, they went out from the south gate of Pyongyang City and entered the camp of Ulji Mundeok.

"ordinary man!"

When Yu Wenshu learned of Liu Shilong's deeds, he became furious, pointed at Liu Shilong's nose and cursed: "Every man is wronging the country!"

Liu Shilong said angrily: "Yu Wenshu, you humiliate me so much, do you think I can't see your intentions!"

If it weren't for the generals pulling him, Yu Wenshu really wanted to kill Liu Shilong with one knife.It's just that even if you kill him, it won't help.Yu Wenshu, who was furious, was not completely confused, and immediately ordered the army to move out!With Zuo Xiaowei with the most complete organizational system as the front team and Zuo Tunwei with the most abundant food and grass as the front team, the army set out overnight without delay.

……

……

"What did you say?"

Ulji Wendeok, who was recuperating on the bed, sat up abruptly, looked at Baoshan Wang Gaojin's entourage and asked loudly, "Say it again?"

The attendant said: "Great... General, King Baoshan was detained by the Sui people, and they said they wanted King Baoshan to return with the army to meet the emperor of the Sui Kingdom."

"Ha ha!"

Hearing what the entourage said, instead of worrying about Gao Jin's safety, Ulji Wende laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, the Sui people are finished!"

The entourage was puzzled and said, "Why did the general make such a statement?"

Ulji Moondeok was in a very good mood, so he patiently explained to the little man in front of him: "Since the Sui army has surrendered, they are the victorious army. Do you think that if they have enough confidence to return to Liaodong City, they will still be able to return to Liaodong City." Is it necessary to hold you King Baoshan as a hostage? The Sui army is finished, and this time they are really finished!"

That follower is not stupid, he immediately understood
