Chapter 492: Yuan Gai Suwen

Li Chengqian watched Brother Cave and Su Zhi withdraw, turned his head to look at Xue Rengui and said, "You have to fight this battle with your heart, otherwise you will be underestimated by them." ”

Xue Rengui hugged his fist at Li Chengqian when he heard this, and said with a cool face: "The minister doesn't have to insult the mission. ”

Shangguan Yi came out and proposed: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the minister thinks that the two departments should be allowed to charge into battle and give them a chance to serve the Tang Dynasty. ”

This is implicit, but in fact, it is to let them fight hard and fight for Datang.

When the others heard this, they all looked at Li Chengqian, thinking that using Yidi to fight was obviously beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, why didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince allow it?

Li Chengqian glanced at everyone lightly, and only said to Shangguan Yi: "After today's practice, you can tell them about the rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Western Jin Dynasty." ”

Shangguan Yi is also a person who reads poetry and books, and Li Chengqian will know what he means when he mentions it.

He bowed and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Li Chengqian turned around and returned to the back tent, and all the generals in the front tent bowed to the throne and said, "The ministers will send His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Shangguan Yi looked at the generals and smiled bitterly: "Everyone, let's go to the school and talk about it!" ”

The generals all looked at him with unkind expressions, you went to Shangguanyi to find something, but let us be taught.

Shangguan Yi looked at the generals and bowed his hands again and again, begging the generals to give him a face.

In the end, Xue Rengui said to the generals: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is far-sighted and far-sighted, and you should indeed study history books." ”

Xue Rengui is also from a famous family, although he lost his father when he was a child and his family is poor, he has read a lot of books, and he can also understand what Li Chengqian means.

After listening to Xue Rengui's words, the generals had to go out and listen to Shangguanyi's history.

-------------------------

Three days later, Li Chengqian raised the 60,000 troops of Jinshan and the 30,000 young men of the Khitan and Xi tribes, and rushed straight to the northern city of Fuyu.

The army stretched for miles on the northeastern plains in the spring, like a raging torrent rushing straight to Buyeo Castle, which was surrounded by mounds of earth.

Li Chengqian, who was sitting in the car, looked at the army in front of him, looked at the young and strong people behind, and secretly calculated in his heart: Can the three earth enclosures withstand several attacks by such an army?

As soon as Li Chengqian thought of these thoughts, he diverged, and the more he thought about it, the farther he went, and finally he thought of what happened after his class teacher returned to the court.

When Li Chengqian was thinking about these things, he heard a report from a soldier outside: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qi, Fuyu Chengyuan Gai Suwen sent an envoy to ask for a meeting. ”

Li Chengqian thought about it for a while, and couldn't think of anything to say to Yuan Gai Suwen, so he ordered a stop and decided to meet the messenger in person.

Li Chengqian stepped out of the car and saw that the Goguryeo envoy was a middle-aged man in brocade clothes, who looked five short and three thick.

At this time, standing next to the car and looking up at the sky, his posture was very proud, and he didn't even glance at the gorgeous car in front of him, and he didn't even notice that Li Chengqian walked out of the car.

Li Chengqian's face showed mockery and gave Liu Kui a look.

Liu Kui pulled his throat and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, and the Goguryeo envoy will see you!" ”

Li Chengqian also made an arrogant gesture, tilting his head and not looking at him.

So a very funny scene appeared, the Goguryeo envoy raised his head and didn't look at Li Chengqian, just hugged his fist indiscriminately, and said: "Goguryeo envoy Gao Wei has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Tang Kingdom. ”

"Presumptuous!"

The official who guided him was furious when he saw this, and glared at Gao Wei with tiger eyes.

Gao Wei didn't care, and still maintained a proud posture and said: "I am the envoy of Goguryeo, not your minister of the Tang Kingdom." ”

"Say it! Why have you come to see the Lone King?" Li Chengqian was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.

Seeing that Li Chengqian didn't care, Gao Wei secretly said in his heart that Li Chengqian was pedantic, but on the surface, he looked like a villain, and said in a hurry: "I came to inform the prince of Tang State on the order of my eldest pair of Lu that my eldest pair of Lu has set up a heavy army in Fuyu City, and set up a large array to wait for the prince of Tang to come to break the formation, and the twenty soldiers and civilians in Fuyu City will compete with the prince of Tang State." ”

Li Chengqian smiled and asked, "That's all?"

Gao Wei snorted coldly when he heard this, and looked at Li Chengqian with contempt in his eyes and said: "I can remind you that we have set up several black soil god cities outside Fuyu City, and we are not afraid of your gunpowder bombardment. ”

When Li Chengqian heard that he was just here to intimidate, he lost interest, and said with a cold face: "Drag him down, cut off his hands, and let him go back." ”

Gao Wei's eyes widened when he heard this, and he looked at Li Chengqian with fear, and before he could speak, he was dragged away by the soldiers, but there was a sound from afar

"How can the prince of Tang be so ungraceful?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Princeβ€”" Shangguan Yi's face was a little unsightly, and he felt that Li Chengqian's actions were out of the demeanor of a great country.

Li Chengqian smiled and said nonchalantly: "If the Lone King puts him back intact, I'm afraid he will also laugh at the Lone King for being stupid, right?"

Shangguan Yi thought for a while, and felt that it was indeed this messenger who did it himself, so he shook his head and ignored it.

-------------------------

Gao Wei, who was chopped off his hand, just bandaged the wound casually, stopped the bleeding, endured the severe pain, and rode a fast horse to Fuyu City.

Along the way, the entourage saw that his forehead was sweating in pain, and several proposals to let him get off the horse and rest were rejected by him.

Gritting his teeth and running to Buyeo City, his face was already pale and his breath was weak, so he asked his entourage to help him go to see Yuan Gai Suwen.

Yuangai Suwen is now the first warlord of Goguryeo, he killed the king of Goguryeo in the sixteenth year of Zhenguan, that is, the year when Li Chengqian crossed, and established the nephew of King Rongliu of Goguryeo as the king of Goguryeo, and he served as the regent.

Yuan Gai Suwen was only thirty-five years old that year, he was born burly and handsome, with a long and beautiful beard, and five scimitars on his back, and his momentum was so magnificent that people did not dare to look up.

But he was young and ambitious, arrogant, flustered, and extravagant.

For example, the crown he wore was adorned with gold, and when he entered and exited the mansion, the horses must be placed on the ground by a nobleman for him to trample on.

As soon as the Tang Dynasty named Gaozang as the king of Shangzhu, the king of Liaodong County, and the king of Goryeo, even if they recognized their coup, Yuangai Suwen sent troops to attack Silla, not caring at all that Silla was also a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, Yuangai Suwen had the corresponding intelligence to support his misdeeds, and in history he lived to the first year of Qianfeng, at the age of sixty-three, and the Tang Dynasty destroyed Goguryeo in the fourth year after his death.

But now Yuangae Suwen's luck is not very good, and in the year when he became the regent of Goguryeo through a coup d'Γ©tat, Li Chengqian crossed over.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty had gunpowder, hot air balloons, and the most important thing was that the Tang Dynasty sent troops to the sea to collect taxes, which made the domestic food of the Tang Dynasty soar, and it could attack Goguryeo regardless of losses.

Since Li Chengqian came to Youzhou five years ago, Goguryeo's life has been worse every year, and now it has actually reached the verge of extinction.

Just last year, his eldest son, Yuan Nan, was shot and killed in a battle with Wang Fangyi, and before that, his two younger brothers were also killed by the Tang army, which directly weakened the Yuan Gai Suwen family's control over Goguryeo.

Yuangai Suwen, the actual ruler of Goguryeo, did not dare to stay in Pyongyang now, and he was afraid that the officials in Pyongyang would be attacked by the Tang Dynasty and sacrifice him to blame.

Therefore, Yuangai Suwen, who was guarding in Buyeo City, no longer had the majestic posture of five years ago, although his crown was still inlaid with beads and jewels and looked brilliant, and he also tried to straighten his waist in front of people, and he was still majestic from a distance.

But his cloudy and godless eyes, his dry and gray beard, and the wrinkles on his face all indicate that Yuangai Suwen has not aged and is decrepit.

Gao Wei walked into the main hall where Yuangai Suwen lived, and at this time, the generals of Fuyu City were all in the main hall to listen to Yuangai Suwen's deployment of this battle against Tang.

Gao Wei consciously knelt down on his knees and kowtowed to Yuangai Suwen.

Seeing Gao Wei's hands chopped off, Yuan Gai Suwen's cloudy eyes shot out a fierce light, his chest rose and fell violently, and his teeth creaked.

The generals in the hall lowered their heads when they saw this, not daring to make a sound.

Beads of sweat the size of soybeans fell from Gao Wei's forehead, his face became more and more pale, his body couldn't help but tremble, and he forcibly restrained himself from falling.

After a long time like this, just when Gao Wei couldn't hold on, he heard Yuan Gai Suwen take a deep breath and ask in a cold voice, "Tell me how about Li Chengqian?"

When Gao Wei heard this, he hurriedly said the words he had thought of on the road.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ When the minister saw Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian was very arrogant, thinking that with only 90,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, he could conquer Fuyu City. ”

Yuangai Suwen listened to Gao Wei's narration, raised his head, and said slowly with an unfathomable expression: "Li Chengqian's Huangkou child is not to be afraid, he is just here to fight for a good-looking military merit and return to Chang'an to stabilize his position as the crown prince."

Among the generals of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Rengui is also considered to be a class elite, but there are fewer battles, and Li Chengqian's meritorious service is earnest, so he is so adventurous.

We built the Black Earth City and were not afraid of their gunpowder, with only 90,000 horses and 30,000 Khitan Xi tribesmen soldiers, why should I be afraid?"

"Exactly, if the Tang Army had been consuming us with us, we might have some trouble, but Li Chengqian's greed and recklessness gave us the opportunity to annihilate them in a battle." A veteran spoke in agreement, and his words were very proud.

Yuan Gai Suwen smiled when he heard this, but when he looked down and saw Gao Wei, his face instantly turned hideous, and he gritted his teeth and said: "It's hateful that Li Chengqian is acting rampantly, hurting my envoy for no reason, and ordering the soldiers not to hurt Li Chengqian's life after catching him."

I'll torture him first. ”
