Chapter 654: Jingguan Again

He had made up his mind, leaving 200 men to continue to carry the head, and he took 1,000 Tang troops to divide into three teams, one team to meet the enemy head-on, and two teams to ambush on both sides.

Similar to Wang Yaozu's judgment, the Goguryeo army did not expect that the Tang Dynasty people would be interested in the skulls of the Sui Dynasty, and there were very few garrisons in this area.

The reinforcements of the Goguryeo were about 1,000 people, and except for a few officers who were amazed, the rest were infantry.

Seeing that there were not many Tang troops in front of them, they directly launched an attack.

The Tang army, which was facing the enemy head-on, was small in number, and they resisted for a while and fled to the river.

The Goguryeo people were in high spirits and shouted and pursued bravely.

When they were about to chase to the river, the fleeing Tang Dynasty people suddenly stood up and reflexively killed back.

The Goguryeo people thought that the Tang army had no way to retreat, and they were fighting the trapped beasts, and they were even more excited, and they stared at the Tang army in front of them and swarmed up.

At this moment, the marines who were in ambush on both sides suddenly rushed out.

When the Goguryeo people saw that there was an ambush, they didn't know how many Tang troops there were, and they immediately panicked.

The Goguryeo army was a local army, and in the face of the formidable marines, it was immediately crushed, and in less than a stick of incense, except for a few people who fled, the rest were slaughtered.

Wang Yaozu saw the reinforcements that had wiped out the Goguryeo people, and led his team members to continue to carry the heads.

Eventually, they loaded all the remaining heads onto the sampan.

At this moment, the east is slightly white.

Wang Yaozu ordered the team members to board the sampan and return to the Yaoyang warship in the river.

At this time, a Marine Corps soldier said, "Your Excellency, let's also get a Jingguan for the Goguryeo people and avenge the martyrs." ”

"Yes, sir." The soldiers said one after another.

Wang Yaozu also wanted to do this in his heart, he said: "If you want to do it, hurry up, move quickly, time is running out." ”

The soldiers cheered, ran to the battlefield one after another, cut off the heads of the Goguryeo people, and placed them in the original position of the Goguryeo Gyeonggan.

Just when the Tang army boarded the Yaoyang warship and began to return, a large group of Goguryeo people appeared on the shore, and when they saw the Tang army leaving, they helplessly fired arrows at the Tang army.

Soon, the flotilla of the Don army went away.

The fleet was going down the river, and soon it was time to reach the mouth of the Liaoshui Sea, and it was already dawn, and the visibility was gradually improving.

At this moment, more than a dozen Goguryeo warships appeared in front of them, except for a small warship that was slightly larger, and the rest were small boats such as boats and yachts.

Wang Yaozu rushed directly with the warship, and the Goguryeo warships did not dare to collide hard, and they dodged one after another, but just fired arrows at the Tang army.

The Tang army did not entangle with them at all, and while returning fire with bows and crossbows, they quickly passed through, and soon left the Goguryeo warships behind.

The Goguryeo people hesitated for a moment, and followed them from a distance to the vicinity of the mouth of the sea. When they saw the huge Don fleet on the sea, they immediately stopped tailgating.

The Marines finally completed their mission.

On July 12, Li Shimin personally presided over the sacrificial activities to pay tribute to the martyrs of the previous dynasty who fought for the country.

Successfully retrieving the remains of our ancestors is a big deal.

30 years ago, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo, killing and injuring millions of people, involving nearly one million families, and the number of their relatives, friends and children was not limited to millions, and the whole country mourned.

The families of the soldiers of the Sui army who were placed as Goguryeo Jingguan were even more grief-stricken, and for decades, when they thought of the miserable scene of their relatives, the pain in their hearts can be imagined.

The Tang army recaptured the heads of these dead soldiers, Li Shimin personally paid tribute to their dead souls, and the families of those who died were grateful.

"Datang Daily" has already set up branches in various places, and they have done relevant reports.

This move greatly established the image of the Tang Dynasty in the hearts of the people. It also inspired the spirit of the Tang Dynasty to participate in the war, and also had a far-reaching impact on the surrounding countries.

Kabul city.

Murong Ling came, and soon Ashina Qing and Wu also came.

Li You suddenly felt that this place was also good, and he wanted Xiao Wanyu to come too, for him, the whole family was together, and it didn't matter if he was in Chang'an.

Cheng Yanjin came, and the army of the Tang Dynasty arrived. The army cannot be idle, it must find something for them to do.

Hamid handed over the province of Angot to the Tang Dynasty, and Li You reciprocated by giving Hamid 500,000 loads of grain, a large number of ordnance, and sending 20,000 horses from Tuli and Tiele to follow him westward and fight with his father for the Persian throne.

Cheng Yanjin, Li Tongshan, Xue Rengui and others stepped up the run-in of the Tang army, Xue Yantuo and Tuyuhun armies, and prepared for the next southward battle.

The handover in Angot Province was very smooth, and Ma Zhou, Abu Hassan, and Mi Huai were also very effective, and Li You did not need to worry about local affairs. He began to study the next step in his venture.

To the west of Angot Province was the Persian region controlled by Hamid, to the north was the Turro region controlled by the Great Eclipse, and to the east was the Tang Dynasty's Western Regions Protectorate, and the only one that could be developed was the south.

The southern part of Angart Province is now the region of Pakistan, but at this time it was not called Pakistan, but the Feituo Dynasty established by the Caucasian Aryans.

The Feituo Dynasty was originally subordinate to the Persian Empire, but with the weakening of the Persian Empire, the Feituo Dynasty broke away from the Persian Empire and is now subject to the Tianzhu Kingdom.

Historically, Wang Xuance became famous on the Indian mainland, and Li You believed that he would definitely play a major role in the next diplomatic mission, so he called him to Kabul as well.

Doge's Palace.

Abu Hassan briefed Li You and others on the situation of the Feituo Dynasty.

The capital of the Feituo Dynasty was in *** fort, and the area controlled by the north was from Angot Province in the north, to the north bank of the Indus River in the south, to the east of Tubo Dabolu and the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions Protectorate, and to the west to the Sukkur Kingdom. With a population of 650,000, it is multi-ethnic, mainly Darobitans, who account for about 4/5 of the total population, and Aryans who make up less than 1/5 of the total population. There are 80,000 infantry cavalry, and 150,000 can be mobilized in wartime.

The Feituo Dynasty was subordinate to the Tianzhu Kingdom and had to pay tribute to the Tianzhu royal family every year, but in addition, it maintained relative independence.

The royal family of the Feituo Dynasty and the royal family of Tianzhu belonged to the same Aryan clan and had a close relationship with each other. If the Tang Dynasty attacked the Feituo Dynasty, it was very likely that the Tianzhu Kingdom would send troops to support, which was a very unfavorable condition.

There is also a favorable condition.

The Aryans are Caucasian people from Central Asia, and they are the Feituo dynasty established after conquering the local indigenous Darobitus, and the social contradictions are deep.

Abu Hassan's eldest daughter was the daughter-in-law of the noble Grand Chief of Darobitu.

Abu Hassan wrote a letter to the Grand Chief of Darobitu and handed it to Wang Xuance, and sent his newlywed son Altai to accompany Wang Xuance to the fort.

Hou Cheng led a detachment of the Flying Tiger Army to accompany him.

After arranging these things, Li You was rarely idle.

On this day, Li You, accompanied by the three princesses, was enjoying Kabul cuisine.

Baihu came in and reported: "Lord Wang, Li Duan is here from Chang'an. ”
