Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 444 The Emperor's Edict of the Tang Dynasty

"Report, Your Majesty! There is news from the border that the envoys of the Tang Dynasty have entered our Silla territory!" A palace guard ran in and saluted.

"Why did Tang's envoys come to Silla at this time?" Xue Wuru asked.

"It must be to convey the imperial edict of the Tang emperor. Your Majesty, let's send someone to meet him! After all, I, Silla, still submit to the Tang Dynasty. If I am not polite enough, people will gossip about it." Jin Yu said.

"Liangchen, on behalf of the widow, you will go to welcome the envoys of the Tang Dynasty to our capital." Jin Famin said.

"I obey!" Liang Chen bowed and stepped back to meet the envoy sent by Datang.

Ten days later, Liang Chen brought the envoys from the Tang Dynasty to the Silla Palace to meet with Jin Famin, King Wenwu of Silla.

"I don't know that the angel came this time, but what is the order of His Majesty the Tang Emperor?" Jin Famin asked.

"Indeed, Your Majesty has an edict for the king!" After the envoy finished speaking, his face became serious and he said, "The governor of Jilin Prefecture and the king of Silla, Jin Famin, is hereby ordered!"

"Chief Governor of Linzhou, King Jin Famin of Silla accepts the order!" Jin Famin and others knelt facing north, waiting for the emissary to read the imperial edict of the Tang emperor.

"The emperor of the Tang Dynasty ordered that the war in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty has entered a stalemate. He ordered Silla to send [-] troops to assist the northwestern border of the Tang Dynasty and jointly fight against the Tubo invasion."

"I heard that Silla generals Kim Yu-shin, Da Ah-wan Xiaochuan, Xue Wuru and others are proficient in strategy and brave and good at fighting. They specially ordered Kim Yu-shin and others to lead the [-] Silla army."

"In recent years, there have been frequent floods and droughts in the Tang Dynasty, and Silla itself is responsible for the food, grass and equipment needed by the army." The envoy read out the emperor's edict.

After Jin Famin and others heard this, they were shocked, and their hearts burst into anger. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty actually wanted them to fight for the Tang Dynasty.

They originally planned to wait for the Tang Dynasty and Tubo to fight hard, take the opportunity to occupy the territories of Baekje and Goguryeo, drive the people of the Tang Dynasty out of the peninsula, and drive them to the north of the Datong River.

Now that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty actually ordered them to send troops, Jin Famin and others naturally disagreed with 1 people.

But after thinking about it, the fact that Datang needed a small country like Silla to send troops is enough to prove how difficult the war situation has become. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a big country like Datang to use a small country like them.

This may not be a good thing for Silla. Datang was restrained by Tubo in the northwest, so naturally he could not take Silla into account. So, even if Silla blatantly attacked Baekje, there was no need to worry that Datang would send troops.

"I also hope that His Royal Highness the King of Silla can reorganize the troops as soon as possible and go to the northwest border of the Tang Dynasty. Don't delay the fighter plane because of this. This is a serious crime." After the envoy read out the edict, he handed the edict to Jin Famin and helped him up Said.

"The ambassador has worked hard all the way. Please go down and rest first. I still need to discuss the dispatch of troops. Besides, it will take time to mobilize troops." Jin Famin said.

"His Royal Highness the King of Silla said yes, then I will leave first!" The envoy saluted.

"Come here, send the ambassador to the post house to have a good rest, and treat the ambassador from Tang Dynasty warmly." Jin Famin ordered.

"Yes!" The palace guard took the order and sent the envoy of the Tang Dynasty back to the post house.

After the envoy left, Jin Famin looked at Jin Yuxin and the others and said, "What do you think about this matter? Should we follow the order to send troops, or should we reject the order of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us in Silla. Now that Datang has been pinned down by its powerful enemy, that's why it wants to recruit us to help them fight. Your Majesty must seize this opportunity. .” Kim Yu-shin said.

"We Silla people will never fight for anyone, we will only fight for Silla." Silla General Park Xinchuan said, he only fights for Silla, and he only dedicates everything to Silla in his life.

"Of course I'm not fighting for others. We're fighting for ourselves, for Silla. It's too much to do. You can use this opportunity to send troops to take down Goguryeo and Baekje, and drive the Tang Dynasty people out of Silla. Goguryeo and Baekje Ji belongs to us." Jin Famin said.

"However, what should we do specifically so that Datang won't find out, and what should we do so that there will be no mistakes." Liang Chen said.

"This is not difficult. We can promise the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to launch an attack on the former Baekje and Goguryeo halfway through the march, and catch the Tang army by surprise." Jin Yuxin said.

"Now, with Datang's situation, even if they know about our actions, they have nothing to do. As long as we move quickly, we can take back the territory that should belong to Silla."

"So what if it's as powerful as the Tang Dynasty? It's not like we can only watch us take back our territory, but they can't stop it. The imagination is really exciting." Jin Famin laughed.

After everyone heard this, they burst out laughing. If such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is not grasped properly, it will be struck by lightning.

Datang is nothing more than that, since they are unwilling to return their Goguryeo and Baekje to them, then they will take it back themselves.

"Everyone, go down and prepare! I will hold a celebration banquet in the palace, waiting for your triumphant return. I will let all the people of Silla remember your names, heroes of Silla." Jin Famin laughed.

He has never been so happy. He Jin Famin will lead his subjects to fulfill the long-cherished wish that generations of kings have not fulfilled, and unify the Three Kingdoms.

"Fight for Silla!" Jin Yuxin and others bowed and retreated.

Jin Famin informed the envoys of the Tang Dynasty to hold a banquet for the envoys in his palace to clean up the dust.

On the same day, envoys from the Tang Dynasty attended Jin Famin's banquet.

After three tours of wine and five flavors of food, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty put down the wine glass in his hand and asked, "His Royal Highness, how are you preparing for the dispatch of troops? The war in the northwest is urgent, but there is no delay."

"The ambassador doesn't need to worry! I have already ordered the recruitment of young and middle-aged men. Within three days, 20 troops can be recruited to go out. In order to help Datang, I, Silla, are willing to come out." Jin Famin said.

In the eyes of others, Jin Famin did this to show his loyalty to Datang, and he did not hesitate to go all out to help Datang.

But the envoy knew in his heart that this was not the case at all. When Li Chengqian was on his mission to Silla, he had told him that Jin Famin might rebel.

If Jin Famin did not send troops according to the requirements of the edict, he must send a letter to An Dong and Xiong Jin to remind them to prepare early.

"His Highness's determination is really touching. If His Majesty knew your loyalty, he would be very grateful. After I go back, I will definitely show up to His Majesty and ask for credit for Your Highness." The envoy said with a smile.

"These are all things that I, Jin Famin, are in charge of. Please also ask the ambassador to stay here for a few more days. After our army is assembled, we will go to Chang'an with the ambassador." Jin Famin laughed.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness! I have the emperor's order, so it is not convenient to stay here for a long time. In addition to passing on the emperor's edict to Silla, I also have to go to Khitan, Mohe and other ministries to convey the emperor's edict." The envoy said.

Having confirmed that the other party wanted to rebel, he had to get out immediately to avoid getting into a crisis, and besides, he had to spread the news.
