For the first time, Li Yu summoned the magistrates under the jurisdiction of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, and killed Maigu, Xinyue, Cangyan, Mudi, Xukou, and the six prefectures of Nansu, Shi Gao Dexing, Kehong, Ming Chenzi, Yi Xingzhong, Gao Gaoqi, and Omuro Chengding. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info degraded Gao Weigong, Gao Zhanxing, Shaomuro Kang and others to ordinary people to repair the port in southern Liaoning for two years to atone for their crimes.

On the same day, he ordered Zhang Shi, who had already been prepared, to lead the right guard of Yanyun Iron Cavalry, and Wang Hu to lead his subordinate three captains, Xiao Hongguan, to lead Xuanwuwei to capture Cangyan, Mudi, Xukou, and Nansu Prefectures; Commander Zhang Zicheng led his subordinates 800 Vermilion Bird to defend the two states of wheat grain and Xinyue.

The total number of troops in the six states is only 8,000, and it is not an important military town such as Anshi and Wugu, and the city defense facilities are not as strong as Goguryeo was back then.

Zhang Shi and Wang Hu's two guards of 6,000 soldiers and horses were enough to capture Cangyan, Mudi, Xukou, and Nansu Prefectures, and after the city was left, Wang Hu led Xuanwu Wei to defend the town; Zhang Zicheng went down to Maigu and Xinyue to guard the two states.

After Li Yu disposed of the history of the Six Prefectures, he dealt with the remaining Governor Gao Xuan of Jian'an Prefecture, Yuquan, Governor of Liaodong Prefecture, Yu Kexing, Governor of Xincheng Prefecture, and Ming Linjin, Governor of North Fuyu Prefecture, who did not find obvious rebellion against the Tang Dynasty; and the four prefectures under the jurisdiction of the governor's office, the assassin Shi Sun Daiyin and others ordered.

After five days, they each returned to their garrisons, prepared grain and grass, gathered their own prefectures, and state soldiers and horses at any time to wait for the orders of the Protectorate, and immediately marched to conquer the rebels.

After returning to the post house from the Imperial Palace, Gao Xuan snorted coldly at Sun Daiyin, and with an ugly expression, he took his subordinates back to the courtyard where he lived.

Sun Daiyin didn't care, and said goodbye to Yuquan, Yu Kexing and other governors before returning to the courtyard.

Sun Daiyin's eldest son, Sun Jieran waved away from the courtyard and entered his father's room, he was already depressed, and when he returned to the other courtyard, he couldn't wait to ask: "Father, why didn't you respond to Gao Shu just now to save Gao Dexing and the others?" ”

"Then do you think that if your father responded, Gao Dexing and the others would not have died?" Sun Daiyin's face sank like water, and the ancient well had no waves, and he did not answer the eldest son's question, but asked rhetorically.

"Isn't it? His father was the first batch of former Goguryeo generals to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, and he was the assassin of Yanzhou who was personally appointed by Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. It is also one of the few cities in Liaodong that has not experienced war, and the people and military strength have been preserved intact, even if it is called the Governor's Mansion. I had the confidence to ask King Yan to save the six of them, and just let King Yan behead them. The six prefectures and more than ten counties under its jurisdiction all fell into the hands of King Yan and were replaced by Han officials under him, according to King Yan's approach, in the future, where will our Goguryeo people have any right to speak in this Andong. ”

"From the moment I surrendered and Goguryeo perished, we Goguryeo people had no right to speak." Sun Daiyin shook his head with a wry smile.

Sun Jieran argued puzzledly: "But the Tang State still needs our Goguryeo people to rule Goguryeo in order to make Liaodong stable, and the King of Yan will kill six assassins when he comes up today, and demote more than a dozen Goguryeo assassins to the common people and distribute them to labor, doesn't this prompt the remaining Goguryeo people to rebel?" ”

"The Goguryeo people rebelled in the Great Rebellion, and most of Andong was lost last month, and even now the entire northeastern Liaodong and south of Yalu River are still occupied by the rebels. In the eyes of King Yan, the previous imperial court's plan to use us Goguryeo to surrender officials and stabilize the place in the future failed. Then why does he continue to hand over to us the entire Andong region at all levels of local jurisdiction? ”

"But?" Sun Jieran was dumbfounded by his father's words for a while, and he didn't know how to refute it when he opened his mouth.

"Hey, you can't just look at the surface when you look at the problem." Sun Daiyin said with a smile: "Before, the old man and others unanimously thought that the Tang Dynasty appointed an untroubled young vassal king as the protector of Anton, and appeased Anton as a vassal king and despised it, and the military and political affairs would inevitably be decided by other officials and subordinates of the Metropolitan Protectorate. But today's events made the old man discover that although King Yan was young, his heart was unpredictable. Today's meeting was convened, and all decisions came from the mouth of King Yan. ignored Gao Xuan's pleas, and killed when he said he would, leaving no room for people. This son is not an ignorant teenager who looks ignorant in his age! ”

"At present, King Yan is obviously killing people, and his intention must be to reorganize the local ruling order in Andong, and if we want to keep the high-ranking officials who were originally rewarded by the Tang Dynasty, we should not contradict what King Yan decided. According to the popular words in the officialdom of the Tang Kingdom, it is called Mingzhe to protect himself. ”

Sun Daiyin smiled at his son like an old fox and said with an unfathomable smile, asking about the way of teaching as an official.

"As long as you do what your father said, the hereditary assassin history of Yanzhou will not run away from our Sun family, and you are my successor." Sun Daiyin patted his eldest son's shoulder with a little meaning, and read a copy of "Spring and Autumn" that he had bought from a merchant in the Central Plains.

For what the eldest son thinks in his heart, how can Sun Daiyin, who has experienced seventy years of ups and downs, not know, and I warn him that he can press his restless heart.

According to the old man's speculation, at present, the king of Yan hopes that the remaining Goguryeo officials have anti-Tang intentions, so that he can use this as an excuse to get rid of us, replace all the local officials at all levels with his cronies, and completely control Anton in his own hands.

As for forcing other Goguryeo officials to rebel, the remaining Goguryeo officials in Liaodong will not have more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, distributed in dozens of cities for nearly a thousand miles. Rebel against the Tang Dynasty, this will be the reinforcement army of the Tang Dynasty to the Andong region, I am afraid that it is not far from Liaodong. If you really rebel, it won't be long before you will be suppressed by the Tang army.

When he heard that the new King of Andong Protector Yan actually personally brought troops to Liaodong, Sun Daiyin was very shocked when he heard the news.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty and the sweep of the heroes, he had never heard of the vassal king of the dynasty personally leading the troops to fight, and the hidden meaning of King Yan's move was not trivial.

After some investigation, most of his subordinates were escorted by caravans recruited by Anshi to do business in Liaodong.

How is this possible? How can there be tens of thousands of caravan men to guard, which caravan can raise these many people, and where do tens of thousands of soldiers and horses come from with weapons and armor?

The more I thought about it, the more I found that King Yan was incomprehensible, and it seemed that he was ready to connect with the local officials of the Goguryeo people.

The cities that King Yan had recaptured from the rebels and the Silla people had appointed new Han officials to rule the city. I heard that King Yan appointed his general Li Shangdan as the governor of Wugu Prefecture, which is also an important reason why Gao Xuan was anxious to protect the lives of Gao Dexing and others.

King Yan should not be despised with! Sun Daiyin sighed with this emotion, and even more so when he returned to his place of residence in anger.

If King Yan pacifies the Goguryeo rebels, then the entire Andong region may only be left with the current four prefectures and more than a dozen counties in various prefectures under its jurisdiction still under the jurisdiction of the Goguryeo people.

Gao slowly thought impatiently, King Yan reduced all the captured Goguryeo rebels to slave labor, regardless of their lives to build roads, bridges and logging, but in a little more than a month, I heard that more than 1,000 people were killed by the prison army because of exhaustion. If King Yan completely ruled Andong, he would not know whether it would be a blessing or a curse for the people of Goguryeo.
