138. Goguryeo is gone

As soon as Di Feng heard the news of Yan Qing, his heart that had been hanging finally let go.

He asked Su Zhen to explain Yan Qing's recent situation in detail.

It turned out that only Chou'er knew about Yan Qing's secret return to Beisha City that day, but Chou'er saw that Di Feng was furious because of the attack on Wuhu Island, so she didn't dare to tell Di Feng about it.

Later, on the eve of the Ningzhou army preparing to go to sea, Di Feng also sent people around to look for Yan Qing, but he didn't find it, at that time Di Feng suspected that Yan Qing had gone to Pyongyang to find Su Zhen, so he didn't continue to inquire about Yan Qing's news, and Chou'er was afraid that Di Feng would blame her for poking Yan Qing to go to Beisha City, so she came to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so Yan Qing was trapped in Beisha City.

Yan Qing was in a coma for three days in Gao Shengnan's dormitory, and finally fortunately Gao Shengnan found Chen Pharmacopoeia, under the treatment of Chen Pharmacopoeia, Yan Qing saved a life, although his life was saved, but Yan Qing was unable to move in a short period of time, so Yan Qing was secretly hidden in the dormitory by Gao Shengnan, this hiding was half a month until the news of Gao She's defeat reached Beisha City, Quan Nan was panicked and withdrew to Pyongyang with his men and horses, and Yan Qing was also brought to Pyongyang by Gao Shengnan with Quan Nan's men and horses.

Half a month has passed since he arrived in Pyongyang, and Yan Qing's injuries have not only gradually recovered, but he has also gradually been able to understand Goguryeo dialect under the condition of getting along with Gao Shengnan day and night, Yan Qing learned the way Di Feng told stories to Chou'er, and every day he would tell Gao Shengnan various stories he heard from Di Feng in broken Goryeo, and Gao Shengnan would tell Yan Qing his interesting stories and the recent war situation in Goguryeo.

Pyongyang City is not the current Pyongyang City, this Pyongyang City was the capital of Goguryeo in the early Goguryeo period during the Three Kingdoms period of Korea. Located on the north bank of the Taedong River in North Korea and at the southern foot of Daeshiro Mountain in the northeast of Pyongyang City, it is also known as Anhek Palace Fortress; And now the capital of Goguryeo is Chang'an City (now Pyongyang). The palace of the Goguryeo king Gozang was in Pyongyang City, and the Moli branch of Gozang himself and Izumi was in Chang'an City.

Quan Nan put Gao Shengnan in the palace of Gaozang in Pyongyang City and went to Chang'an City, there is no Quan Nan in the eyesore, Gao Shengnan has no scruples to grind with Yan Qing's ears and temples every day, although Yan Qing has a warm and comfortable life, but he is more worried about Di Feng and Chou'er's recent situation, when he learned that a white-clothed and white-armored Tang army landed in the hinterland of Goguryeo and won the name of "Snow Devil" in a row, Yan Qing immediately thought that this was Di Feng's Ningzhou army.

Because the Ningzhou army had already prepared white clothes and white armor and sleds before coming to Liaodong, Yan Qing was still puzzled about Di Feng's intentions at that time, and only then did he understand that Di Feng really had the ability to predict the future, he was happy that Di Feng could win consecutive battles, and he was sad that he could not join Di Feng before he recovered from his injury.

On this day, Yan Qing was learning to cook chicken called Hua in the garden with Di Feng's appearance, while Gao Shengnan was curious to give Yan Qing a start. Suddenly, Yan Qing stopped what she was doing, stood up violently, picked up the horizontal knife beside her, and said in a deep voice: "Friend, the wind is strong in the room, since you are here, why don't you come down to meet Yan Mou?" ”

As Yan Qing's voice fell, a person fell from the roof of the house, and as soon as he landed, he smiled and said: "Haha~~ Xiao Yanqing, I haven't seen you for a few days, but my eyes and ears have risen, but you are happy here, but my brother has to run around, do you say this is a bit unfair?" ”

Yan Qing saw that the person who came was Su Zhen, who was looking around for news; Su Zhen also came to the Goguryeo Palace again to explore Pyongyang's defense for Di Feng, but he didn't expect to meet Yan Qing here.

After the two met and talked, each of them told their own experiences in this period, Yan Qing originally intended to follow Su Zhen back to Di Feng, but Su Zhen refused.

Su Zhen's idea was very simple, Di Feng asked him to inquire about the situation in Pyongyang and Chang'an, the royal city of Goguryeo, he was worried that he would not be able to run around in two cities by himself, and now Yan Qing is in Pyongyang and mixed in the palace of Gaozang, wouldn't it be better for Yan Qing to stay in Pyongyang to investigate than to return to Wonsan?

He told Yan Qing his thoughts, Yan Qing wanted to find Di Feng, but he was really a little reluctant to leave Gao Shengnan, who got along with him day and night, and now Su Zhen's proposal just solved this problem. So Yan Qing agreed, and asked Su Zhen to ask Di Feng to find a way out for Gao Shengnan after Pyongyang was breached.

Yan Qing's request Su Zhen naturally agreed, and with Yan Qing in Pyongyang, Su Zhen returned to Yuanshan to resume his life.

After listening to Su Zhen's report, Di Feng secretly laughed at Yan Qing's courage and sweated for Yan Qing, if this kid hadn't met a Gao Shengman who was still affectionate and righteous, the "prodigal son Yan Qing" he had worked so hard to cultivate would have been lost in Beisha City, but this is also the will of God, with Yan Qing in Pyongyang, his plan to send people to lurk in Pyongyang is a lot less risky. As for Yan Qing's decision to arrange Gao Shengnan by herself, it is very simple, and there is no place for Tsushima Island, Jeju Island, and Ningzhou to arrange a girl.

So Di Feng called Tian Yangming and asked him to sneak into Pyongyang City secretly with the Five Tigers and a hundred elite soldiers, and wait for the army to attack the city. At the same time, Su Zhen sent scouts to find Li Duoqi, and asked him to come to Yuanshan as soon as possible to meet him.

At the end of October of the third year of Qianfeng, Xue Rengui broke through the city of Fuyu and broke the eleven cities in a row and joined Li Ji's army, Quan Nanjian led the defeated army to flee to Pyongyang, and in the same month, Li Ji's army broke through and attacked Zhenhumili Yicheng (now Yongrou Border in North Korea), and the front of the army was directed at Pyongyang, and the defenders of other cities in Goguryeo either fled or surrendered.

At the beginning of November, Li Duoqi broke through seven cities in a row and came to Yuanshan to return to Di Feng's headquarters, and Di Feng, who joined forces with Li Duozhu, attacked from Yuanshan and conquered Yangde and Xincheng one after another, and then joined Li Ji Pioneer Qi Bi He Li in Jiangdong.

The next day, the Hu and Han armies of Qibi He Li and Di Feng's Fenghuo army besieged Chang'an, and Quan Nanjian sent troops to rescue many times to no avail.

On 4 November, Li Ji attacked the city of Pyongyang and joined forces with Khibi Ho Li and Di Feng, who had arrived first, and the 500,000-strong army surrounded Pyongyang.

Quan Nanjian Jucheng stubbornly swore not to surrender, but was seriously injured in the city tower by Song Yifan, the captain of the Fenghuo Military Academy, who operated a catapult, and the seriously injured Quan Nanjian handed over the power to the monk Xincheng, but did not expect Xincheng to be bought by Tian Yangming, who infiltrated Pyongyang, and with the cooperation of Tian Yangming, Xincheng opened the city gate, and Li Ji's army successfully entered the city and took Pyongyang.

At the same time, the Silla general Kim Yu-shin, who allied with the Tang Dynasty, also took advantage of the Tang army's victory to conquer the southern land of Pyongyang.

The news of Goguryeo's destruction reached Chang'an, and the city was full of lights, and everyone waited for Li Ji's army to escort Gaozang, Quan Nanjian, and Quan Nanchan's brothers back to Chang'an Taimiao to offer their victory.

And Di Feng didn't forget to promise Yan Qing something, on the day Pyongyang was breached, Tian Yangming took Yan Qing, Gao Shengnan and his sister Gao Xiangnan to Di Feng's camp, and Di Feng sent the sisters to send them to Thirteen Niang secretly.

Li Ji's celebration banquet is in the palace in Pyongyang City, the merits of Xue Rengui and Di Feng of the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo are obvious to all, and the two have naturally become the central topic of the banquet.

Guo Zhifeng didn't dare to trouble Di Feng at this time, he delayed the fighter several times at the beginning of the war due to the procrastination of the march, which caused Pang Tongshan and Gao Kan to almost die, and was scolded by Li Ji for being bloody, and his popularity was naturally snubbed by everyone, not to mention the trouble of finding Di Feng, that is, he hid in the corner and drank alcohol alone, or was first ridiculed by Xue Rengui and Liu Renyuan, and then Gao Kan and Pang Tongshan stepped forward with the strength of the wine to add up to each other.

The celebration banquet ended with Li Ji's persuasion, and Li Ji passed the word that the army rested in Pyongyang for nine days, and then set off for Chang'an nine days later. (To be continued.) )
