Chapter 32: Liwei Liaodong
"The king, the minister was confused for a while, and he listened to the slander of his subordinates and did this disloyal and unrighteous thing!"
"The rebels are coming, in order to protect the safety of the people in the territory, the minister is temporarily at peace with the rebel Silla people, and the minister is only temporarily in Cao Ying, and his heart is in Han, and his loyalty to the Tang Dynasty is like the sun and the moon, and there is no false ......."
Liuzhou Thorn Shi took his Silla table and knelt on the ground to cry and grab the sky, and his tears gathered to show his loyalty to the Tang Dynasty. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
We just want to ensure the safety of a realm, and we have no intention of betraying the Tang Dynasty, and we find all kinds of high-sounding excuses to excuse ourselves for the surrender we have made, and there are even more people who put all the responsibility on our subordinates.
Swear to the sky, if you have the heart of rebellion against the Tang Dynasty, the sky will hit five thunders, the children and grandchildren will die tragically, and the children and grandchildren will be cut off, etc.
Sun Daiyin, Gao Zhuan and others looked a little unsightly when they saw this situation in front of them, they had actually heard of the surrender of the rebel Silla people in some prefectures and counties, and some local assassin county commanders even took the initiative to participate in the rebellion.
For example, Cangyan, Mudi Thorn Shi Mingchenzi and Yi Xingzhong, Sun Daiyin learned from his subordinates that they had killed all their Han officials when the Silla people occupied the Black Bone Fortress, and sent people to contact the Silla people and various rebels.
The rebels were able to capture several large cities under the jurisdiction of the Xincheng Prefecture in a short period of time, except for these cities, which were ruined by the previous perennial wars and had insufficient troops, but these two men supplied the rebels with food, grass and ordnance, and even rebelled against the Goguryeo defenders of several cities.
It's just that what surprised Sun Daiyin was that these people still had the courage to come to An'an City to respond to the call of the new Andong Protector? If you think about it, you can guess their thoughts, it's nothing more than that King Yan's young age makes them despise them, thinking that they can pass the test with a few fools.
In addition, not many people knew about their rebellion against the Tang Dynasty, and seeing that the Silla people and the Goguryeo rebels were defeated by the Tang army that suddenly arrived in a short period of time, the prospects for Goguryeo's restoration were worrying.
With a lively mind, they became loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty again, and made a report document to send to Anshi. It is said that they defended the city without fear of strong enemies and repeatedly defeated the rebels, and the Han officials who were killed by them were praised for their bravery and goodness, and regretted that they died in battle.
These people met Sun Daiyin and them on the way to Lai'an City, and hinted to Sun Daiyin and others during the conversation, so as not to tell the Tang people. The land under each other's jurisdiction is a neighborhood, and it is impossible not to know that they secretly colluded with the rebels in Silla.
Let Sun Daiyin know that they are not denounced to maintain the stability of the local political model of hereditary rule of the Goguryeo people in the Andong region, and it is a guarantee for them, the former Goguryeo generals, to maximize their vested interests and their own safety, and not to be hidden by the Tang court when the time is ripe.
Fundamentally, they Goguryeo people should huddle together for warmth, and both sides should remain silent about the rebellion.
On the left-hand side, the subordinate officials and generals of the newly appointed Anton Metropolitan Protectorate watched the wonderful performances of Gao Dexing, Kehong, Ming Chenzi, Yi Xingzhong and others kowtowing their heads, patting their chests, and wiping their tears.
"Hey." Gao Chongli patted Xue Jun, who was sitting in front of him, and said in a low voice, "How many of them do you guess what they said is true?" ”
"Is this still a guess?" Xue Jun smiled lightly and replied very mysteriously: "Your Highness has long known which of these Goguryeo officials who came here really betrayed the Tang Dynasty and which ones had other intentions. Let's just watch them act quietly. ”
"Hmm." Gao Chongli nodded approvingly, continuing to appreciate their acting skills.
Gao Dexing banged his head on the hard ground, and the blood on his forehead flowed, and more than forty people would be dizzy. But they couldn't stop, and they were here for a long time, but the young King Yan on the upper seat did not move.
I knew that I shouldn't have come by luck today, gathered my soldiers and horses, united with the cities in northeastern Liao, and contacted the anti-Tang rebels of Goguryeo and the Gaoyanwu army in the domestic city There are also 50,000 soldiers and horses, so why not be afraid of the children in front of you!
Until now, his net worth and life are tied to his hands! Even the emperor of the Tang Dynasty has never gone to worship, but now he is begging for mercy at the feet of a yellow-mouthed child.
Several people felt remorse and resentment in their hearts, but they couldn't bear it.
I heard that Datang advocates respecting teachers, and the current prince of Datang is known for his benevolence. The Yan King in front of him is the fourth brother of the crown prince, with the same father and mother, and he must also be a person who stands up for benevolence and virtue.
I can only do my best to arouse the benevolent thoughts in the hearts of the children in front of me, and pity them for a group of bad old men to survive the worries of their lives. Maybe they can keep their official positions, after all, they did, but they took the initiative to return. Datang doesn't seem to kill the people who take the initiative to surrender.
Li Yu also had enough of this shameless group of middle-aged and elderly people shamelessly begging for mercy, and said impatiently: "My Datang can have today's majestic Quartet, and the four Yi will serve it, and there is my Datang's law here." As a minister of the Tang Dynasty, he didn't want to serve the country, but he took advantage of the chaos to collude with foreign enemies to plot misdeeds. According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, if you don't kill, you can't deter Xiaoxiao! ”
"The situation in Anton is chaotic, and it is difficult to suppress it without heavy punishment. Someone dragged these traitors out and showed them to the public. ”
More than a dozen Qinglongwei soldiers stepped into the sword, grabbed Gao Dexing, Kehong and others who were crying for mercy on the ground and were about to take them out with their hands.
"Slow!" Gao Xuan hurriedly stood up and motioned to Sun Daiyin at the same time. Sun Daiyin looked outside the hall and ignored Gao Yan.
Gao Xuan impatiently played to King Yan with a numb scalp: "Although the king is guilty, his sin will not lead to death, and please ask the king to spare his life!" ”
Looking at the handsome face of the young and harmless six animals sitting in Yanwang, Gao Dexing and the others did not expect that this yellow-mouthed child would actually open his mouth to kill them. Suddenly frightened, his face turned pale and incoherent, and he saw that he was about to be arrested and cut down by Tang Jun, but Gao Xuan stood up and pleaded for them. Several people looked at Gao Xuan with a blank eye, hoping that he could save his life.
"Oh?" Li Yu changed his sitting posture and looked at Gao Xuan quite interestingly, and asked rhetorically: "They are treason and collaboration with the enemy, the evidence is conclusive, why is the crime not to death?" ”
"The rebel army was so strong that the king led 3,000 troops to Anshi and encountered several times the number of rebels in Anshi, and even encountered tens of thousands of Goguryeo Silla coalition troops in Da'anshan. Presumably, the prince must have felt it, and it is true that the soldiers and horses led by the king are the strongest army in the world, so they are naturally not afraid of such chaotic soldiers. However, after decades of war, the people of the city defended by Gao Dexing and others were ruined, and the soldiers were not enough to resist the rebels. When the Silla army was defeated and the rebels were not enough to threaten the place, they immediately returned to the Tang Dynasty anyway to suppress the local rebels, and when the king sent a summons, they did not hesitate to come to Anshi. The king is now beheading them for his previous mistakes, which will chill the hearts of the people of the world, and he has no intention of forcing them to resist resolutely to pacify the Goguryeo rebels! Please think twice! ”
Gao Qingqing sincerely agreed, which made Gao Chongli, who had always been straight-tempered, a little unhappy at the moment. Our fathers founded the country, and they didn't make a hereditary assassination history for decades for the Tang Dynasty's southern and northern wars, not even a hereditary county order. You are not satisfied with the hereditary governor, assassin history, and county commander as soon as you surrender, and you will plot a rebellion at the slightest opportunity. If the evidence is conclusive, you can't kill it, what is the reason?
Seeing that Gao Chongli was about to have a seizure, the eldest brother Gao Chongde, who was sitting next to him, knew his brother's habits too well, and reached out in time to press his shoulder so that Gao Chongli couldn't move, and stared at the eldest brother angrily.
"Think twice? Hehehe! Li Yu smiled, smiled very happily, in your eyes, I am just a thirteen-year-old teenager, but my actual psychological age is in my thirties, can I still not tell the truth from the false?
Aren't you Goguryeo people huddling together to keep warm? Seeing that this king defeated the rebels and replaced all the officials in the cities occupied by the rebels with Han officials, none of the original Goguryeo people were useless, would this be nervous? I'm afraid that I will kill these people today, and immediately send my subordinates to occupy them, and the local officials will be replaced by Han officials, and you are worried that one day you will follow in their footsteps and lose your power and status.
"What are you doing? Don't drag it out and cut it yet! ”
"No!"
"The king spares his life!"
"Huangkou Xiaoer, kill me today, and he will be beheaded by our Goguryeo people in Liaodong one day."
"Xiao'er, if you kill me, my son will definitely let the Tang people die under the city of Nansu."
Under the stunned eyes of Gao Huan, Sun Daiyin and others, more than a dozen sergeants dragged away the screaming people, and after a while, there were several screams outside the city lord's mansion.
Hum! If I die in Liaodong, will I let you Goguryeo people come close to me? Funny!
Also, don't think that someone will be able to go back and report to your family, so that they can prepare to defend the city and resist. The post house was surrounded by troops as early as when you entered the city lord's mansion, and everyone you brought into the city was closely monitored, and all of them would have been taken down and imprisoned long ago. As for Gao Zheng, they will also be left in the city for three days, and who will go back to report the news?
The corners of Li Yu's mouth were slightly upturned, and Sen Ran's eyes looked at Gao Xuan.
Gao Xuan suddenly had such an illusion, and the idea in his heart seemed to be seen through by the young man in front of him, and under Li Yu's cold gaze, he sat back to his seat unnaturally.
"Where is the history of the seven states of Yuancheng, Mianyue, Yayue, Houhuang, Jili, Yincheng, and Lishan?"
With a loud shout from Li Yu, seven frightened Goguryeo officials stood up from the right hand side and fell to their knees with a thud.
They knew in their hearts that the king of Yan was going to take them for their crimes, and there was no soldier in his hands, just lambs to be slaughtered.
At Li Yu's signal, Xin'er, who was standing beside Li Yu in men's clothes, opened the fold in her hand and read: "Yuancheng, Mianyue, Yayue, Houhuang, Jili, Yincheng, Lishan Seven Prefectures, Thorn History, Ten County Orders...... Gao Weigong, Gao Zhanxing, Shaomuro Kang...... lost the city and fled from the battle, and should be beheaded, but remembering that he had contributed to the Tang Dynasty, Andong protected the king of Yan and other capital crimes, and was demoted to a commoner, and was sent to southern Liaoning as a slave for two years. Nian Er and others worked hard to re-serve the opportunity to serve the country......"
"Thank you for not killing the king!"
A group of people kowtowed like pounding garlic and wept tears. Some people are grateful to Dade in their hearts, and some people hate them with silver teeth in their hearts.
None of this is what Li Yu cares about, they will be sent to Qingnipu in southern Liaoning to repair the port, whether they can live in two years is a question, are you worried that they want to cooperate with the enemy to retaliate?
