"Old body, old body is not looking for you, I just want to ask my daughter Pei Cuiyun if she is here. My husband asked me to bring my children to him. ”

"You, are you Mrs. Pei?" Cheng Zhijie was taken aback; "You, what are you holding?"

The middle-aged woman said: "It's my youngest son, his name is Pei Xingjian." ”

Cheng Zhijie's eyes widened, this Pei Renji also has to be sixty years old, right? And the ability? And who else is this? Pei Xingjian! In history, Su Dingfang's apprentice, a famous general in the Tang Gaozong period. And this person is versatile, the best at recognizing people, and the promoted Cheng Wuting, Wang Fangyi, Guo Beifeng, Hei Tooth Changzhi, etc. are all leaders of a generation.

"In! At! Miss Pei is in my palace, Yumei, hurry up and invite Miss Pei to come. As everyone knows, his words came out, but Mrs. Pei misunderstood, in his palace, wouldn't he become his princess? This person's talent has nothing to say, but he looks a little stumbling, so that his daughter is wronged.

Soon Pei Cuiyun was invited over, the mother and daughter hugged and cried, and Cheng Zhijie had to let her take her mother and younger brother down to rest. Pei Cuiyun knew that her mother was holding her younger brother, and she was also dizzy; Seeing everyone's kind smiles, I hurriedly accompanied my mother away.

"King Qin! You've been a big surprise with me, aren't you? It really caught me off guard. ”

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "I arrived at Wagang Mountain, and Xu Shiji asked me to bring them; I said that it was a chance to have something to do with you, and I didn't know there were so many things in between. Fifth brother, please bear with me. ”

"Nothing. It's okay to end it early; I will think about it every day after the province. Okay, now that we're done with the chores, let's come up and discuss what to do next? ”

Everyone gathered around again to do a good job, and Li Shimin asked, "Fifth brother, what are your plans?" ”

Cheng Zhijie said with a smile: "I want to cultivate my voice for a while, but there are still a few local battles to fight." First, Goguryeo and Baekje took advantage of the war in Liaodong to dare to attack me, but fortunately, Zhang Shigui and Laicheng were prepared to make them fall short.

Now Zhang Shigui has reached an agreement with Silla to send troops to Goguryeo with us. I have already decided that Jang Shigui and Silla will merge all the way, and Ma Wenju and Lai Cheng will attack Goguryeo together.

The second is that the Ryukyu Kingdom dared to meddle in our Central Plains affairs, although their navy was wiped out by us; But I can't let them go, I have already arranged for Brother Zhang Ding to lead the navy to conquer the Ryukyu Kingdom.

The third is that the battle with Dou Jiande is not over yet; They and Luo Yi are still confronting me, and I will let people end this fight quickly.

The rest of me needs to cultivate for a while, and this time will not exceed 2 years, and I feel that I will be able to put down the civil strife in the Central Plains by then. At that time, King Qin should also have a choice, right? ”

Li Shimin smiled bitterly and said, "Fifth brother, why should you rush people too much, let me think about it again." Cheng Zhizhi nodded and said, "Okay!" We don't have to rush, take our time! Take it easy! ”

Li Shimin said: "In the past two years, I will seize the time to deal with Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande; When the time comes, our brothers will divide the Central Plains equally, and what will happen in the future, let's discuss it again. ”

Cheng Zhijie nodded and said, "That's fine, let's just make up our minds." Look you can't wait. Come and take King Qin to see Princess Ruyi. After saying that, no one else can leave, one counts as one, and let's get drunk and rest. Everyone listened to it and responded with a bang.

In recent years, Zhang Shigui and Laiquan sent small units to attack in turn, destroying the enemy's production and making their spring ploughing unable to be carried out; As a result, the land was barren, Goguryeo and Baekje were in turmoil, and the people were struggling to make a living. Therefore, Goguryeo and Baekje were forced to take the risk of attacking Zhang Shigui of Xiongjin and Pyongyang.

As a result, the two of them had already taken precautions, and they fell short; Instead, he recruited the army of the Great Demon Kingdom. Zhang Shigui immediately came to Silla and discussed with King Jinpyeong of Jinpyeong to jointly send troops to attack Goguryeo; Although Jin Baijing agreed to send troops to cooperate, and sent Jin Chunqiu as the commander, Jin Yuxin as the general to lead an army of 50,000 to cooperate with the Great Demon Kingdom to attack Goguryeo.

Zhang Shigui also brought an army of 30,000 to Silla and joined forces with Jin Chunqiu to attack Shicheng.

In Xiongjin, Ma Wenju's army came, and they were divided into two routes. One route was led by Han Shige to Zhouliu by boat; Part of it was made up of Ma Wenju and Lai as generals, out of Xiongjin, and directly attacked Hanyang.

At this time, the power of Goguryeo had been completely attributed to the young Yongai Suwen. Gao Jianwu, the king of Rongliu, was frightened by the Great Demon Kingdom, and his psychology changed, and he changed from hostility to awe; He wanted to get closer to the Great Demon Kingdom, but was stopped by Yuangai Suwen.

The rift between Gao Jianwu and Gai Yuan Suwen is becoming more and more obvious. King Yeongliu and his ministers planned to get rid of some of the most powerful generals in Goguryeo, and were the first to take out the most threatening to his throne, Yuangae Suwen.

When Yuangai Suwen learned of King Rongliu's plans, he invited King Rongliu and his ministers to inspect his army and host a feast. At the banquet, Yuan Gai Suwen killed 100 ministers of King Rongliu, and then broke into the palace to kill King Rongliu and divide the body, and did not hold a funeral for King Rongliu.

After that, Yuangai Suwen proclaimed himself the "Great Mo Lizhi" (regent), and established King Rongliu's nephew Takazo as the treasure king and regent himself. The Treasure King is in vain, and the military power and state affairs are all held by Yuangai Suwen.

Ma Wenju led the army to take advantage of their turbulent period to lead the army to the city of Hanyang.

Yuangai Suwen also wanted to take advantage of external pressure to divert contradictions, so he recruited all men over the age of 13 and under the age of 50 to join the army in Goguryeo, and got an army of 200,000 to come to the battle.

Ma Wenju heard that Yuangai Suwen killed Gao Jianwu and made Gao Zang king; claimed to have obtained Gaozang's distress document, and told the world that Yuangai Suwen killed the king and bullied the ministers, brutalized the people, and now violated the edict and invaded the demon country, which must be begged. So Helai divided his army into two ways to attack Goguryeo.

Lai Cheng led an army of 30,000 people and went straight to the capital Hanyang, while Ma Wenju led 30,000 people to bypass Hanyang and go straight to the enemy's interior. Yuangai Suwen was afraid that Gao Zang would really join forces with the Great Demon Kingdom, so he didn't dare to leave without permission, so he divided 100,000 troops and asked his first general, Zou Mou, to intercept it. He himself led the rest of his men to garrison Hanyang.

The twelve hussar generals who came to the Great Demon Kingdom have been stationed in Xiongjin and Goguryeo. His lifelong belief was to be able to extinguish Goguryeo.

This time, Ma Wenju left most of the army behind him, and arranged for Shi Danai and Jiang Huan to help him. Knowing that this time he was going to fight to the death with Goguryeo, he led the army to Hanyang City in high spirits.

Yuangai Suwen led the army to the city wall to line up, and these hundreds of thousands of people densely lined up in Hanyang City. The army of the Great Demon Kingdom frowned when they saw that the enemy was outnumbered.

When he saw the enemy arrayed at the head of the city, he laughed and said, "There is no one in Goguryeo!" The city was full of farmers. There were no soldiers at all. Come! Siege the city, give these guys a little bit of power! ”

Hearing this, Shi Danai beckoned his cavalry to gallop out, and they were within the range of the enemy, and suddenly turned their heads and roared away. The moment he turned his head again, the overwhelming arrows missed, "Woo! He flew up the tower.

"Crackling!" "Puff puff" There was a chaotic sound. The Goguryeo soldiers in the city were shot into one piece; The rest also retreated and dodged, and the formation was chaotic.

Shi Danai laughed and led his cavalry to show off his might under the city. Enraged, he ordered his soldiers to return fire. As a result, most of the arrows were lost and fell to the ground before they reached the wind cavalry; Some of them were shot at the cavalry, but the soft arrows could not penetrate the composite leather armor of the wind cavalry, and they were blown to the ground.

"Hahaha! Goguryeo's soft egg, let grandpa teach you how to shoot arrows! The wind cavalry laughed and scolded; Then there was another flurry of bows and arrows, which shot at the Goguryeo soldiers, killing and wounding.

At this time, the morale of the soldiers of the Great Demon Kingdom under the city was greatly boosted, and they pointed at the city and were full of spirit. Yuan Gai Suwen was almost not captured, and in a fit of anger, he had to order the soldiers to retreat, and the shield soldiers stepped forward; to avoid embarrassment.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Shi Danai shouted and led the army to withdraw. With a single order, the army began to move forward slowly.

Dozens of tall catapults were pushed up and lined up under the city of Hanyang. Their huge bodies terrified the Goguryeo soldiers.

"Three salvos of stone bullets, bombarding the enemy's walls!" Order; A huge stone projectile of 100 catties rose into the air and smashed down on the head of Hanyang City.

"Boom!" Some stone bullets smashed on the city wall, shaking the city wall; Some smashed on the battlements, and all at once the masonry took off, bringing out a miserable howl; Others fell directly into the city; "Bang!" smashed out a puddle of blood, and then crushed a bloody alley with a grunt.

"Get out of the way! Hide! "Yuan Gaisu almost vomited blood in anger, the battle had not yet begun, the enemy was not injured at all, his army had suffered heavy casualties, and the soldiers had no intention of fighting; How can you fight behind this?

"Woooooo Immediately after three rounds of stone bomb attacks, the smashed city wall shook, and a lot of city defense equipment was destroyed.

"Change the fire bomb and throw it in depth! Three rounds of projection, put! With a command, a huge fireball rose up.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! "A huge fireball fell into the tower, inside the city; The enemy troops hiding behind the bunker were splashed with fire oil, wailed and rushed out, and soon turned into torches. The castle tower was full of flames, and the fire oil prepared by Yuangai Suwen and the rolling wood were also ignited, and the flames soared to the sky.

What's even more terrifying is that the subsequent extended firebombs smashed directly into the houses in the city, immediately setting fire to the residents' houses; There was chaos in the city.

Yuan Gaisu was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and he quickly ordered his army to rush out to put out the fire. Someone poured a bucket of water on it, and found that it was useless; Shouted loudly: "General! The enemy's flames are so strange that they can't be extinguished with fire at all! Could it be the demon law of the Central Plains again? ”
