Chapter 738: Encircling and Sending Reinforcements

Su Dingfang can't say that he understands Wang Ping'an's personality, but he is still clear about Wang Ping'an's attitude towards doing things. If this is changed to other ministers, although the raid on Baekje failed, but the capital of Goguryeo was burned, and the king of Goguryeo was captured, this credit would be quite large, enough to boast for a lifetime!

However, although this raid brought huge losses to Goguryeo, this loss was not fatal, because the main army of Goguryeo was not wiped out, and the real rulers were not wiped out.

This means that Goguryeo will soon have a new king, and the ministers will take advantage of the destruction of the country to inspire the Goguryeo people to resist the Tang Dynasty and take revenge frantically, thus inflicting greater losses on the Tang Dynasty than imagined!

Changed to other ministers, raided it, made a meritorious service, patted his ass and left, and let others handle the follow-up war, anyway, it will be a headache for others. But Wang Ping'an is not like this, the credit is of little significance to him, if he wants to do it, he will do practical things, since he has hit Goguryeo, if he doesn't beat Goguryeo, he will never be able to stand up again...... For him, it was really a trip for nothing!

Su Dingfang knew that Wang Ping'an was unwilling to just catch a puppet king and leave, but as a deputy, he still had to fulfill his obligations and remind Wang Ping'an. He said: "Prince, we have captured Xiaochang'an, the Goguryeo army in the direction of Silla will inevitably rush back desperately, and reinforcements from all over the country will also come, within ten days, the whole country of Goguryeo will gather here, at that time I was afraid of more than 200,000 troops, and our army only has 10,000 people, and there is no follow-up force support, the lone army goes deep into the enemy country, the outcome is unpredictable!" ”

Xue Renyi also came over at this time, he heard Su Dingfang's words, and immediately understood that Wang Ping'an was going to stay to surround the point to help, but he agreed with this method. He said: "Prince, if you want to stay and do a big job, the last general will absolutely support it, anyway, you will come, if you don't do enough, what a pity to go back, maybe you won't have a chance to come in the future!" ”

Wang Ping'an snorted and said, "It's not possible to have no chance!" Brother Su is right, in ten days, Goguryeo's reinforcements will arrive one after another, maybe it will reach 200,000. But what can the 200,000 army do, they can't go into battle together, and it is impossible to reach together, the strength of a single battle, the Goguryeo army is about the same as ours, and maybe it's weaker than us. Sweep him 10,000 today, kill him 5,000 tomorrow, let's just outside the city of this small Chang'an, have a flesh and blood grinding plate, polish the Goguryeo army, until the powerful minister who built something comes back, and then give him a ruthless blow! ”

Xue Renyi laughed and said, "Then let's pat our butts, board the boat and leave!" ”

Wang Ping'an said: "Yes, that's it!" ”

Su Dingfang said: "The last general swears to follow the prince to the death!" "Clasp your hands into fists and salute Wang Ping'an, and Xue Renyi also salutes and swears allegiance!

At this time, the interpreter pointed to the captured treasure king, as well as his concubines and children, and asked, "Prince, what should they do, but should they be executed on the spot, or should they be sent to the ship and escorted back to Datang?" ”

Wang Ping'an said hesitantly: "Sending it back to Datang is just a matter of raising, although it can deter Fanbang, it is of little significance." Let him write a letter for help, cover that thing or something, and let him quickly lead the troops back to save him. Remember, the letter should explain that he was not captured, and fled to the countryside outside the city, and my Tang army, the surprise attack was successful, has retreated! ”

Su Dingfang laughed and said, "The prince has used this strategy, and he can't walk to death that thing or something!" ”

"He was the one who died!" Xue Renyi said with a smile.

The interpreter got Wang Ping'an's order, and immediately showed his might, stood in front of the treasure king with his chest folded, and with a wave of his hand, the Qingzhou soldiers immediately pressed the treasure king down and knelt at the feet of the interpreter!

The pride of the translator, look at it, when the translator, the little official is also, but which little official can mix with us like this, and can make the dignified King of Goguryeo kneel at his feet!

With the expression of a conqueror, the interpreter was very proud, and said arrogantly: "Who is that, hehe, talking about you, look up at me, and let me look at you!" ”

Wang Ping'an snorted, thinking: "The appearance of this interpretation is actually quite arrogant!" ”

The Qingzhou soldiers grabbed the Treasure King's hair and lifted his head up, facing the interpreter. The interpreter spoke Goguryeo dialect in a hurry, and then shouted a few words with angry eyebrows!

The Treasure King was originally timid, and he was "raised" by Yuangai Suwen since he was a child, and he had no backbone for a long time, and he was so scared that he cried when he was heard by the interpreter, and his wives and children were also scared to cry together!

The interpreter turned his head, accompanied by a smiling face, and said to Wang Ping'an: "Prince, this treasure king is so frightened, he has already agreed, and is willing to write a letter for help and send it to Yuangai Suwen, so that Yuangai Suwen can come back quickly to save him, but he said that his golden seal is gone, and he can't write a letter!" ”

Wang Ping'an snorted and said: "Let him write a letter, because he is not dead, and that thing that covers something can't set up a new king, and he can't move the capital, and he really thinks that he is still the king!" There is no need to use any gold seal, cut his fingers, and let him write a blood book, so that it will be fine, and it can be more urgent! ”

The interpreter hurriedly said: "Okay, let him write it!" ”

Wang Ping'an said: "After writing it, take him into custody, remember to change his clothes, and don't let the news of his arrest leak." With that, he ignored the Treasure King, and went out of the courtyard, intending to deal with the matter of entering the city.

But as soon as I got out of the courtyard, I found that the current Goguryeo Imperial Palace was already on fire, and half of the palace was on fire, and the fire was so great that it seemed that it could not be saved!

Of course, Wang Ping'an didn't plan to put out the fire, but he was angry in his heart, and said: "Why are you so anxious, you have not taken enough loot, so you burned down the palace, what a bunch of losers!" ”

Xue Renyi said with a smile: "Don't worry, the brothers are fast, they won't pull down anything, and if you take too much, we can't take it, how many ships have only come in total, and there are too many things to transport back!" ”

Wang Ping'an hummed and said, "That's right, even if you find the ship again, I'm afraid you won't be able to get together the sailors!" The fire in the palace was getting more and more fierce, and he didn't plan to stay any longer, so he led Su Dingfang and Xue Renyi out of the palace.

But outside the palace, but not much stronger than inside, the whole city fire has begun to ignite, Qingzhou soldiers in a short period of time, has erupted unparalleled destructive power, the city is full of calls for revenge for the atomic brothers, Qingzhou soldiers run around, turning the prosperous little Chang'an into a hell of fire!

Wang Ping'an scolded, helpless in his heart, these Qingzhou soldiers didn't listen to him very much, and the battle was very fierce, but it was not his direct subordinate troops, and as the commander-in-chief, he was powerless to restrain his subordinates, which was really a thing that made him unhappy!

He turned his horse's head and said, "Get out of the city." Also, blow the trumpet and let the brothers assemble outside the city. ”

Xue Renyi agreed, beat the horse and left to give the order, and Wang Ping'an left the capital to find a place to rest outside the city.

But Wang Ping'an went out of the city, and waited until it was dark, and the Qingzhou soldiers did not quit, on the contrary, there were countless Goguryeo people who fled from the city, and fled in all directions, and the number of people increased, and finally Wang Ping'an was afraid, so he had to enter the city again under the protection of the guards, and wait on the city wall!

Wang Ping'an sat in the city tower, his face was as ugly as he was, and Su Dingfang was also very angry, one of the two people was the commander and the other was the deputy general, but they couldn't command the army, and even the order to assemble was passed down, and the soldiers and generals below had to disobey the yang and the yin, which was too unusual!

The army successfully broke the capital of Goguryeo, and the victory had been obtained, but the two main generals were afraid of being trampled by thousands of Goguryeo refugees because of the lack of guards around them, so they could only hide on the city wall.

Su Dingfang said: "Prince, this Xue Renyi is useless, and he turned a deaf ear to your orders, is this worth it?" No one dares to use this kind of subordinates, at most he can eat under his father, but the position of the governor of Qingzhou is not hereditary, according to the general, he will be unlucky sooner or later! ”

After a pause, he looked left and right, and saw that the Qingzhou soldiers were quite far away, and he whispered: "Prince, although my Tang Dynasty wants to destroy Goguryeo, the purpose of the imperial court has always been to treat the enemy leniently, especially not to burn the enemy's capital. But look at it, the way it is now, after we go back, I'm afraid that we will have to be recklessly participated in by the old men in the court. Otherwise, let's refer to Xue Renyi first and push the responsibility? ”

Wang Ping'an looked at the blazing Goguryeo capital, frowned, and said, "Fortunately, the wind direction is not blowing towards us, otherwise we would have to become bacon!" Speaking of joining him, there is no need for this, and there is no way to really participate first, we are in Goguryeo now, even if we want to join him, we have to send a ship back, but we can't transfer people! ”

The reason why Su Dingfang has been trapped for many years is that he has been affected by others, so he is very sensitive to this kind of thing, and seeing that Wang Ping'an doesn't care, he had to say again: "Then wait until we go back and then participate, anyway, we have to push out the responsibility of burning here, or then there will be endless trouble." ”

Wang Ping'an heaved twice, thinking: "Once bitten by a snake, I was afraid of the well rope for ten years." In the past, the old emperor was in power, so he naturally wanted to talk about the so-called benevolence and righteousness, but now that the new emperor is sitting in the Dragon Court, he doesn't care about this, how is Goguryeo, do his, he doesn't even know where Goguryeo is, I'm afraid he hasn't figured it out until now! ”

Wang Ping'an was noncommittal, Su Dingfang saw that he didn't say anything, so he had to shut up, but he kept thinking in his heart, how could he get rid of Xue Renyi, if something happened in the future, he must not be affected again!

After waiting for a long time, the fire in the city became bigger and bigger, and the whole city smoked, only then did I hear the horn blowing in the city, and a large number of Qingzhou soldiers began to retreat and withdrew from the city, and Wang Ping'an did not have to hide in the city, and went out of the city to join the army.
