Ye Chen enjoyed other people's protests very much, no matter how good you Cao Cao was, you could only protest, but there was nothing you could do with me.

Protest is the groan of the weak, and although Cao Cao is not weak, he can only use protest to express his dissatisfaction.

After making three large orders, Ye Chen did not continue to pull business, because the workshop could not afford so many orders.

Yuan Shao didn't move, Ye Chen wouldn't move, and the melee of the southern princes would not affect Ye Chen at this time, so Ye Chen set his sights on Goguryeo.

At this time, it has been more than two months since the start of the war, and Tai Shi Ci and they have been using the strategy of defense and offense.

When the enemy comes to attack, they defend, and when the enemy does not attack, they start attacking.

In more than two months, they attacked several more cities, advanced hundreds of kilometers north, and relocated more than 200,000 people of Goguryeo.

The people were moved, and the king of Goguryeo was about to go crazy, if he really couldn't defeat Tai Shi Ci and them, the king of Goguryeo would definitely attack with all his might.

The king of Goguryeo also tried to drive Tai Shi Ci and them out, but sent tens of thousands of troops to attack, but they were stunned by the bows and crossbows they were equipped with, leaving more than 10,000 soldiers behind and withdrawing in disgrace.

Although Tai Shi Ci was strong in battle, the terrain of Goguryeo was really complicated, so Tai Shi Ci was not in a hurry and advanced slowly.

As long as they continue to compress Goguryeo's activity space, they can always be cornered, and they can only come out for a decisive battle, or choose to shrink and then slowly perish.

"Your Majesty, we can't go on like this, if we continue like this, our Goguryeo will perish."

Goguryeo was forced to do this, and the king of Goguryeo was naturally responsible, and many of his subordinates asked him to come up with a solution.

Recently, the king of Goguryeo has been very angry, he is about to be destroyed, so it's no wonder that he can be in a good mood.

At this time, many officials came to the palace and asked him to find a way, but what could he do.

"Delaying time is the best way, it will be autumn in two months, when the weather turns cold, they can't attack, and then it's our chance." The king of Goguryeo said.

An official stood up again, and then said, "Your Majesty, if it is winter and the snow covers the mountains, they will indeed not be able to attack, but can we attack?" Moreover, the enemy had already prepared to build fortifications wherever they wanted, and with their powerful bows and crossbows, winter could only stop them from attacking, but could not repel them. ”

"yes, they can't attack in the winter, and we can't attack either."

"We can't take back the city, we can't drive them out, we can only perish."

"What if we take back the city? The people are gone. ”

......

The Goguryeo king's subordinates attacked the Goguryeo king and blamed him for the failure.

The Goguryeo king, who was in his early forties, had suddenly aged a lot in the last two months.

Just because he sent troops to loot Lelang County once, but he suffered the doom of destroying the country.

The king of Goguryeo had bruises on his forehead, and he was already very angry, but he could not vent it.

At this time, almost all the officials were against him, what could he do? Kill them all?

If this is the case, he will not be torn apart by his angry subordinates without Tai Shi Ci attacking him.

The living space was constantly compressed, and Tai Shi Ci and they adopted a method to make Goguryeo incomprehensible.

At this time, the whole country was panicked, and everyone saw the viciousness of Tai Shici's strategy.

Build a strong defense in the south, then encroach on your territory bit by bit, and move people everywhere you go.

The king of Goguryeo also thought about fleeing with all the people, not to mention whether all the people were willing to go with him, even if he fled north, where could he feed so many people?

You must know that there are many people in Goguryeo who live by hunting, and there are too many people in one place, what do they eat.

And the north is even colder, and life is difficult.

It is simply unrealistic to take the people with them.

If you don't take the people with you, the king of Goguryeo wanted to take the army away, and when they couldn't fight and retreat in winter, they would come back with the army themselves, but Tai Shici and they simply moved the people away and didn't leave him a little.

What is the use of a country that has lost its people, even if it has more troops.

The officials of Goguryeo were noisy, they were afraid, afraid of losing everything.

And the king of Goguryeo was very powerless at this time, and he did not have the ability to drive Tai Shi Ci and them away, nor did he have the ability to calm down his officials and people.

This state of affairs continued for several days with no progress at all.

The king of Goguryeo has not been able to solve the problem, and the officials have been arguing with him for a few days and then stopped looking for him, knowing that looking for him is also in vain.

"Drag on, we can't go on like this, otherwise I don't know how many people will starve to death in the winter."

"So what? Can we still win against the Han army in the south? ”

"We can't win, but we can surrender."

"Nothing, the king will not agree."

"If you don't agree, you'll abolish him."

“......”

The battle against Tai Shici has not made much progress, the living space has been compressed repeatedly, many people can't bear it anymore, and many people are thinking about change.

There are already many officials who can't stand this state of affairs and begin to connect in private, preparing to force the palace.

At the beginning of someone, things got worse, and even someone secretly contacted Tai Shici and them.

On the one hand, Tai Shici agreed to their request, as long as he surrendered, he could give high-ranking officials Houlu, and on the other hand, he hurriedly sent someone to inform Ye Chen.

When Ye Chen received the news, he immediately agreed to let them surrender, and it was certainly good to be able to achieve their goal without fighting.

However, Ye Chen didn't think about letting them go just like that, although he wouldn't destroy them, he would definitely dismember them in the future, and then turn them into the people of the Han Dynasty in a few years.

Regardless of whether Goguryeo surrenders or not, it will be destroyed by Ye Chen, the difference is that the time is sooner or later.

If they don't surrender, Ye Chen will destroy them in a short time, and if they surrender, it will take ten or twenty years to make the entire Goguryeo disappear, but the way of disappearing is different.

Perhaps the king of Goguryeo felt the crisis and vaguely knew that someone was going to rebel, so he began to have trouble sleeping and eating, looking for a way to break the situation.

"Immediately send someone to Ye Chen to be a vassal, as long as I can keep my throne, the condition is to let them open, but they must retreat." When the king of Goguryeo sensed the threat, he immediately sent an envoy to sue for peace.

"Ziyi, the king of Goguryeo has asked for peace, what do you think?" Receiving the news, Huang Zhong asked.

"Big brother, do you want to accept the peace sued by the king of Goguryeo, or accept the surrender of those officials in Goguryeo?" Zhao Yun asked.

They have the right to decide on this matter, and it is impossible to let Ye Chen make up his mind in everything.

Tai Shi Ci thought for a while and said: "First of all, it is impossible to withdraw troops before the dismemberment of Goguryeo, and it is estimated that this king of Goguryeo will not agree to our dismemberment of Goguryeo, so either they will change the king, or we will accept the surrender of the Goguryeo officials." ”

Tai Shi Ci was also not sure who to accept, so he simply quietly spread the news to Goguryeo, letting them know that the Goguryeo king and officials wanted to surrender, and let them mess up first.
