Ten days passed, and the Tang troops in Yingzhou, Dengzhou, and Pingzhou suddenly moved; Gao Kan, the governor of Yingzhou, and Pang Tongshan, the general of Youjin Wuwei, suddenly sent troops to Xincheng (today's Fushun area) to meet with Quan boys; Xue Rengui of Pingzhou sent troops to Liaocheng (today's Benxi, Liaoning); He Liqi, the pacification ambassador of Liaodong Province and the deputy governor of the march, attacked Jian'an (today's Gaizhou, Liaoning).

Li Ji is crazy!! No one thought that Li Ji would send troops at this time, and for a time the folds of Li Ji in the court were a foot thick, although Gaozong Li Zhi also doubted Li Ji's abnormality, but he still left these folds in the middle, and issued an edict "If there is anyone who talks about the war in Liaodong in vain, I will let him go to Liaodong to accompany Li Ji."

With Li Zhi's message, the Tang Dynasty was quiet; It's quiet here, but Goguryeo is in chaos, Quan Nanjian and Quan Nan Shan didn't think that Li Ji would suddenly start a war, they and the lords of the various departments have repeatedly analyzed, and the result is that Li Ji will launch an offensive in the spring of next year, but who would have thought that Li Ji would suddenly attack at this time regardless of common sense, and for a time the army was defeated, and tens of thousands of people were beheaded when the new city was lost; Liaocheng was lost, and Tang general Xue Rengui was unstoppable; Jian'an lost the contract, and he forced Pyongyang; Now Xue Rengui and Qibi He Li have cut off the connection between Beisha City and the north, Quan Nansan quickly withdrew from Beisha City with his men and horses to Pyongyang. At the same time, Guo Beifeng and Liu Ren were willing to send troops from Wuhu Island and easily occupied Beisha City.

Li Ji's army was like a bamboo, and it was a few days in a row Li Ji, Gao Kan, Qi Bi He Li, Pang Tongshan joined forces, and after capturing Xincheng, he took 16 cities near Xincheng in a row, and at this time Goguryeo recovered from Li Ji's raid, and under the crazy counterattack of hundreds of thousands of troops gathered by the lords of various departments, the offensive of the Tang army was blocked on the periphery of Jinshan. The two armies were at a stalemate for a while, and they fell into a tug-of-war.

Li Ji beheaded tens of thousands of people in the first battle, and the good news was frequent, so that the Tang Dynasty sang praises and virtues, but at this time, a discordant news came, the Ningzhou army led by the Liaodong grain envoy and Ningzhou Thorn Shi Difeng suddenly lost contact with Li Ji when he went to Baekje to collect grain, and 3,000 men and horses disappeared into the vast sea, life and death unknown.

When this news came, the court was suddenly silent, and everyone knew in their hearts that grain and grass were the key to determining the success of this crusade.

Li Zhi was silent after listening to it, the Eastern Crusade was Taizong's last wish, and it was also Li Zhi's heart knot, and the height of Taizong's martial arts made him unattainable; "Zhenguan's Legacy" sounds good, but as the emperor Li Zhi is unwilling to live in the shadow of others, for this reason, the Western Turks divided Kunling, Mengchi and the two capitals of the palace, he hopes that he can also expand his territory and become a generation of Ming monarchs; What's more, Taizong's three expeditions to Goguryeo were fruitless, and whether he could succeed in conquering Goguryeo became the key to whether he could surpass Taizong and leave a strong mark in the history books.

"Di Feng is missing? Grain and grass? Winter is coming......" Li Zhi's mind kept changing these words, he felt a headache, and his vision in front of him was a little blurry.

The Empress Wu beside her saw Li Zhi's strange appearance, she quietly reached out and tugged at Li Zhi's robe sleeve, and whispered without squinting: "Sage, don't worry, hasn't Li Ji not heard the news yet?" What kind of person is Li Ji, with his loyalty to the saint, if Liaodong is irreversible, how can he not report it? Since there is no news from Li Ji, it means that Di Feng's disappearance is either irrelevant to the war situation, or Li Ji has other plans. Besides, you look at Di Liang Gong below with a smile, where is there a look of worry, the maid boldly guessed, this Di Liang Gong must know Di Feng's whereabouts, the saint is a little rest, and Di Liang Gong will stay in a while, and you will know the details if you ask him. ”

Listening to Wu Zetian's words, Li Zhi couldn't help but look sideways at Wu Zetian, only to see Wu Zetian carefully snorting forward, signaling Li Zhi to pay attention to the prestige, this is above the court. Looking at the naughty look hidden under Wu Zetian's steady appearance, Li Zhi's heart warmed, and he couldn't help but recall the scene of the first acquaintance between the two, and said secretly: "Although this Wu Mei is strong, but the person who is most familiar with herself is none other than her, it is better to have Wu Mei by her side, but in the face of powerful people are ambitious, the first time they met, the tenderness has been dissolved in the power struggle with the change of status, she does not live up to me, I live up to her oath, I still remember, I must remember Mei Niang also remembers, But what if you die? ……”

Seeing that Li Zhi began to wander again, Wu Zetian quietly took Li Zhi's hand under the cover of the wide sleeves of his robe.

Held by Wu Zetian's soft hand, the soft feeling made Li Zhi wake up and at the same time made a decision: "The imperial power is pure nonsense, whatever, Wu Mei wants this country, so what's the matter with her!" ”。 Li Zhi glanced at Wu Zetian gently, and said to the court: "The matter of Di Feng's disappearance caused by the transportation of grain in Liaodong will be dealt with by Li Ji, the chief manager of the marching army, and the secretaries can no longer discuss it, Di Renjie will stay, and the others will disperse!" ”

An hour later, Di Ren distinguished the Qianyuan Palace, and the first thing he did when he returned home was to write a letter to Li Ji, the content of which was only a few words: "You can guarantee that you are foolproof?" ”。

After the letter was sent away, Di Renjie worried about his son, "Jinghui, where are you now?" ”

Where's Di Feng? Even Di Feng himself couldn't answer this question, and at this time, Di Feng was scolding in his heart, "Damn, this map of the ancients is too tricky, where is Jeju Island?" ”

Tamna is the ancient name of Jeju Island in the southern waters of the Korean Peninsula, Di Feng also accidentally remembered this place, he had traveled to Jeju Island in later generations, and knew that there were fertile water and grass, open terrain, and it was an excellent place for the development of agriculture, forestry, fishery, and animal husbandry.

But in the previous life, he went to Jeju Island by plane, this time he didn't know how to go by boat, the nautical chart was there, but Di Feng sailed along the mark of the nautical chart for more than ten days and did not find this Jeju Island, the ancients' nautical chart deviation is too large, and it is not detailed, the big island of more than 1,800 kilometers, only the size of a fingernail on the nautical chart, obviously his fleet has arrived at the location of Jeju Island, but he can't see where the island is when he looks around?

"General, in the second year of Lin De, Tamna once sent an envoy to the court, and it was rumored that the island went north to Baekje for five days, and the people on the island were simple and simple, with big clothes and pig skins, summer leather houses, winter cave rooms, and five grains on the ground, and they did not know how to use cattle to plough the soil. It is a fairyland on earth, but this Tamna Island is inhabited by immortals, and there are ghosts and gods to protect it, if there is no fate, the ghosts and gods will use their magical powers to hide this island, and do not let mortals get close, according to the subordinates, it must be that we are too murderous, and the ghosts and gods will not let us land on the island, or we should not look for it and turn to Baekje, right? Baekje should have food! Jiang Zhongshi led the troops to fight, killing people and destroying the enemy without fear, but he was still a little weak in the face of ghosts and gods, and when he saw that the legendary fairy island was difficult to find, he couldn't help but persuade Di Feng to give up looking for Tamna Island.
