Chapter 337: On the Eve of the Expedition

"In Yuan Tiangang's words, you are a person who should not appear in the world, and your existence is a paradox, just like water flowing to a low place and cannot flow backwards." The red-whisked woman sighed, "But you just appeared." ”

"Is he really dead?" Gu Qing questioned again.

"Don't talk to me in that tone." The Red Whisker Girl's tone turned cold, "I haven't seen Yuan Tiangang's corpse. ”

"So it's also a mystery whether he's dead or alive." Gu Qing whispered.

"I'll go to Goguryeo first, and we'll see you in Goguryeo." After the Red Whisk Girl finished speaking, she left step by step.

There was only the sound of the night wind around, and Gu Qing stood in place thinking about a lot of things in his mind, whether Yuan Tiangang was alive or not, what secrets were there in Kunlun Mountain in this era, and what other disciples did he have in addition to knowing the legendary old man of Baliang.

"Let's go back." Yang Sheng withdrew the knife.

Nodding, Gu Qing thoughtfully went all the way back towards Shanhaiguan, and when he walked out of the dense forest, his eyes suddenly brightened, this Shanhaiguan looked like a bonfire party, and it was very lively.

"Gu Qing, where have you been?" Li Tai pulled Gu Qing to the campfire, "I just found a few fishermen, they said that the weather will be sunny for a while, and we have a chance to enter Goguryeo, but no one can say whether there will be a few more strong winds before autumn." ”

Nodding, Gu Qing picked up a boiled red crab and ate it, looking at Su Dingfang and Cheng Chumo, Xue Rengui and the three of them drank very happily, and Wu Wang Li Ke drank the wine very calmly, "Fatty, do you think His Royal Highness King Wu is here to rob you of your credit?" ”

"This guy is nothing to fear." Li Tai shook his hand and said, "Sometimes I think about why he wants to be the first in everything in front of his father, but a few days ago I understood his intentions, everything he did was for her mother." ”

"Huh." Gu Qing nodded thoughtfully.

Li Tai said again, "This King Wu is different from me and the crown prince, his mother's identity is too sensitive, I am the prince's harem, I know all those things, this Yang Concubine has been excluded everywhere in the palace, even Yuefeng is the most meager, he has done so much for his own mother, so that his mother can gain a foothold in the palace, so he does everything his father and the emperor explain to do everything he can to do his best!" Sometimes I sympathize with him, pity him, and admire him even more. ”

"He didn't rebel because of his mother's identity, but thought about his mother's concubine in everything." Li Tai took a sip of wine, "This is also one of the reasons why my father was able to send him to the East, since the death of the emperor's grandfather, my father has reused King Wu even more, because of King Wu's filial piety." ”

"I see." Gu Qing nodded.

"Hehehe......" Li Taiwei smiled, "Gu Qing, you don't know that the crown prince wanted to rein in King Wu many times, but King Wu refused. ”

"This King Wu is very smart." Gu Qing nodded.

"Yes!" Li Tai raised the wine bowl and drank it in one gulp, "So you don't have to worry about this King Wu, he will not come to deal with us, but he will charge into battle, the most vigilant is Hou Junji, Hou Junji is the prince's henchman, the prince's right-hand man, and the relationship between Hou Junji and the eldest grandson Wuji is very close, do you understand now?" ”

"On the battlefield, the sword has no eyes." Gu Qing lowered his voice, "He also gave me a little care." ”

The night of bonfire party ended, many people were drunk, and the next morning, Gu Qing wrote a face with a sleepy head with a bag of cold water, and opened his hazy gaze, a guy stared at him, "Shangguan Yi?" ”

"Gu Xianhou." Shangguan Yi smiled politely.

"Has the general arrived?" Gu Qing looked around and didn't see any other soldiers and horses.

"The general will be here tomorrow." Shangguan Yi explained, "The general asked Xiaguan to bring the king of Goguryeo over first, saying that he would rush to repair the road and attack Goguryeo first, and seize the opportunity of this time when the wind stopped." ”

Gu Qing let out a sigh, "I thought he was here, if he came now, it would be miserable for a few of us." ”

Shangguan Yi looked at everything under Shanhaiguan and understood, "Did Master Hou do his best last night?" ”

"It's the first time I've come to the beach." Gu Qing snorted, grabbed Shangguan Yi and said, "How about it, I'll go to the sea to catch some seafood for you to try." ”

"When I went to Goguryeo, I ate a lot of seafood, and I got tired of it." Shangguan Yi waved his hand again and again, "I have already brought the king of Goguryeo, and he knows that there is a path that can surprise Goguryeo." ”

Li Tai also woke up early, and when he heard the words between Shangguan Yi and Gu Qing, he asked curiously, "Surprise attack on Goguryeo?" ”

"That's right." Shangguan Yi said, "These days on the march, General Li Tao has been thinking about how to deal with Goguryeo, and the king of Goguryeo pointed out a small road, when the time comes, a few young men and horses will attack Goguryeo with 30,000 soldiers and horses, and when Goguryeo is tired of dealing with it, General Li Tao will lead the army to Goguryeo. ”

"It's a two-pronged approach."

"Come with me." Li Tai took the silent King of Goguryeo and Shangguan Yi to Shanhaiguan.

Gu Qing woke up the drunk Cheng Chumo, Xue Rengui, and Su Dingfang, "Don't sleep, we're about to go on the expedition." ”

"On the march?" Xue Rengui immediately stood up.

"Let's talk about it first." Gu Qing took out the water bag, "Wash your face and take a sip of water, sober up." ”

Several people came to the city tower of Shanhaiguan, Li Tai, Li Ke, Shangguanyi, King of Goguryeo and Li Junxian were discussing.

Shangguan Yi pointed to a corner of the Yalu River on the map, "When I escaped with the King of Goguryeo, I used this trail to ask Yuangai Suwen to chase and kill, it is the narrowest place on both sides of the Yalu River, there is a single-plank bridge to cross, as long as a bridge is built there, you can cross." ”

Looking at the worries of several people, Shangguan Yi said again, "Wang Jin asked Xiaguan to bring some firearms first, a thousand grenades and three artillery pieces. ”

"That's interesting." Cheng Chumo touched the minibus and looked at Gu Qing with a smile, "As soon as the cannon sounded, there were ten thousand taels of gold, Gu Qing, when did you make this thing." ”

"Let's fix up the soldiers and horses, and let's go." Su Dingfang finished speaking and left.

Shangguan Yi said to Li Junxian again, "Please also ask General Li to continue to sit in Shanhaiguan, and the 100,000 army will arrive later." ”

Li Junxian nodded with a fixed face.

The soldiers in the lower part of the Shanhai Pass quickly recovered from last night's drunkenness, one by one they were waiting to march in line, Cheng Chumo and Su Dingfang were in the army and commanded everything, the king of Goguryeo looked at the well-equipped Tang army, Goguryeo compared with the Tang Dynasty, Goguryeo is like a group of farmers fighting, how is Goguryeo fighting with the Tang Dynasty now, this army is enough to attack a large area of Goguryeo, and the strength of the Tang Dynasty has reached the point where it is prohibitive.
