1948 Time is Life
Sun Daiyin stomped his feet and said. "I knew this old man wasn't that easy to deal with!"
"What does City Lord Sun mean?"
"It's my father-in-law, Lord Wenshamen. I sent men to lay an ambush in his path, preparing to assassinate him, probably because he found out. β
Guo Ye groaned: "It's a relative after all, how about talking to him?" Even if he doesn't show affection, for his daughter's sake, he has to be accommodating, right? β
"I'm afraid it's not that easy, this old guy is just a tendon, if I can persuade him, I can still kill the killer?"
"Uh...... That's right. Thinking of Sun Daiyin's inhumanity and injustice, Guo Ye had nothing to say, so he had to say: "Then let's be a dead horse and a live horse doctor, it's good to delay time." β
"That's all there is to it."
Sun Daiyin bowed his hand to the generals and said, "Let's open the skylight and say something, there are a total of 500 people in my house." I'm not sure if I'll be able to resist my father-in-law's attack. β
There was a commotion in the crowd.
Sun Daiyin paused and continued: "I don't trust everyone. In order to prevent you from rebelling, I will leave a hundred brothers to guard it. There are not enough manpower, so we need to use heavy codes to govern troubled times...... If anyone moves, they will be killed! Don't make a mistake about yourself. β
Yuan Se Ma Xiong smiled bitterly: "Then how can it? Everyone has just expressed their position, even if they go back on their word, it can't be so fast, right? β
"Hmph, I hope so."
Together with Guo Ye, Sun Daiyin climbed the gatehouse of the City Lord's Mansion and said loudly: "Father-in-law can be in the army?" Please come forward and answer! β
Sure enough, with little effort, Old Man Wen appeared. He twisted his silver hair and said, "My good son-in-law, you really treat the old man well." felt that the old man was having a hard time, and wanted to send the old man to the west. Yes, filial enough! β
Sun Daiyin smiled bitterly and said, "Old father-in-law, although I didn't have any kindness to you, your old man has long been on guard against me, right?" Otherwise, how could he have escaped assassination so easily and gathered men so quickly? Our son-in-law is each other. β
"Not bad! As soon as Qin Guogong came, the old man felt that it was not a good way. I'm really not at ease with you. You kid, you have the ability, but your loyalty to Goguryeo is really questionable. β
"Then the two of us are even. Now, I don't know what my father-in-law is going to do? β
"Then you have to look at your son-in-law, what are you going to do?"
"Me?" Sun Daiyin said: "I can't hide it, I'm ready to abandon the dark and turn to the bright and switch to Datang." β
Wen Shamen sneered: "Then the old man can only kill his relatives in righteousness." Led the army to quell the rebellion. β
"Counterinsurgency? Hmph, but I don't know how many soldiers and horses my father-in-law can mobilize? β
"No more, no more, the old man's 2,000 soldiers and horses have all been brought."
"Two thousand people want to break my city lord's mansion?"
Wen Shamen smiled slightly and said, "It's quite a lot." Most of your soldiers are on the walls, right? They planted Tang flags all over the city walls, on the one hand, to send messages outside the city, and on the other hand, to deter the army in the city. That's what you're thinking, right? β
"Yes, exactly."
"And how many people are still in your mansion? As long as the old man catches or kills you, your minions will collapse without a fight. β
"Aren't you afraid that the Tang Army will arrive first?"
"Afraid! Of course the old man was afraid. So, wasn't that just looking for equipment? Hehe, why do you think the old man is talking so much nonsense with you? People are counted as tigers, and tigers are also counted as people. You want to stall for time, and so does the old man. β
"You ......"
"How? Want to break through now? It's late! Come on, push our guys up! β
"Whoa!"
The effort was not great, there were three siege vehicles and two stone throwers, which had already been pulled to the front of the formation.
Wen Shamen said: "I think how long can you hold out with a small city lord's mansion?" There are too many times that we Goguryeo have not believed in our words! Even if the city wall is full of Tang flags, it has to be regarded as a trick by the Tang army. Even if I break your City Lord's Mansion, I'm afraid the Tang Dynasty Son won't be able to decide whether to enter the army. β
"According to your old man, I'm in danger?"
"Hehe, even if you don't hit it, it's not far away. My good son-in-law, you just accept your fate! Come on, give it to me! Those who kill grandchildren will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and they will be promoted three levels in a row! β

β¦β¦
His Majesty Li Er slept very badly last night, he had a dream, and he dreamed that Jiancheng Yuanji and the others had hideous faces and were covered in blood, standing not far from him, shouting with teeth and claws: "Give me back my life, give me back my life!" β
He hurriedly drew his sword and danced, "Don't come, don't come!" The Holy Son of Heaven is blessed by a hundred spirits, and when you come to make trouble, are you not afraid that your souls will fly away? β
"Hey, Holy Son of Heaven? What kind of saint are you! Jiancheng said: "You are a dumb king without a way!" What is the protection of a hundred spirits? Today is your death! β
"Nope! You are wrong, I am not a faint monarch without a path, I am a wise monarch through the ages. In my Zhenguan prosperous era, the rice is only five dollars. Which dynasty and generation has such a low price of rice? I'm afraid that only the rule of Wenjing can be comparable to me. β
"At the beginning of Yang Guang's accession to the throne, the price of rice was not much higher than yours. The result? Three expeditions to Goguryeo, and finally died and the country was destroyed. You're following in his footsteps! β
"No, I am not the same as Yang Guang. He can't beat Goguryeo, but I can beat it. It doesn't take three expeditions, I can conquer it in one time. β
"Bragging rights, you. Look at who this is? β
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Shigui and Pang Xiaotai appeared in front of His Majesty Li Er, and the two ghosts said: "The minister died so miserably......"
Jiancheng said: "Two generals were broken in two days after the siege of the city, and I still want to break Goguryeo, so let's dream." β
"No, I still have Guo Ye, the Duke of Qin, who has already entered the city to persuade him to surrender. Liaodong City must go down! β
"Guo Ye? What can't be defeated on the battlefield, you want to fight for it with your tongue? Second child, second child, you can't be so naΓ―ve, right? β
"That Qin Guogong Guo Ye is not like others, he has never disappointed me."
"Oh? Is it? Jiancheng pointed to the side and said, "Look at who this is?" β
"Huh?" His Majesty Li Er looked at it and saw a headless ghost appear in front of him, this ghost was holding a knife in his right hand and a head in his left hand.
The seven orifices of the skull were bleeding, and it was exactly what Guo Ye looked like!
"Your Majesty, the minister is blessed with it, and he has been beheaded by the Goguryeo people......"
"No......" His Majesty Li Er's heart was like a knife, and he woke up suddenly, panting heavily.
"Where is the Duke of Eguo? Where is Hu Guogong? Where is Master Xuanzang? Escort! Come and escort! He shouted.
Dong Shun ran in and said, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Duke E and Duke Hu are both in Chang'an City, and Master Xuanzang is still in Khitan. β
"Oh......" His Majesty Li Er rubbed his eyes, only then stabilized his mind, and said, "It's okay, I was caught in a nightmare, and I was confused for a while." Don't worry, it's okay now. β
"Would you like a saliva?"
"No, you don't."
"The slave and maid are gone, and you can continue to rest."
"Don't!" His Majesty Li Er said, "What time is it now?" β
"Three watches."
"Three watches? Dong Shun, don't go, talk to me. β
"Yes."
His Majesty Li Er let out a sigh of relief and said, "Qin Guogong entered the city but didn't come back, do you think he will have anything else?" β
"The Gongji people of the Qin State have their own heavenly appearance, so there shouldn't be anything else, right?"
"Alas, I hope so. But I just had a dream......"
When His Majesty Li Er finished telling this dream, Dong Shun's face turned pale with fright, and his upper and lower teeth fought, and said, "Your Majesty, are you ...... This is... Day...... There is a ...... day Place... ......"
"Alright, don't say it. Look at your little bit of interest, do you want to say that I think about it day and night? β
Dong Shun nodded desperately and said, "Yes!" Be! β
"But why do I think it's Qin Guogong who is giving me a dream?"
"Ahh You...... Don't scare me...... The slave is cowardly......"
"Get out! Useless stuff! β
"Yes."
"Come back, I'm a little scared, sit with me for a while."
β¦β¦
Finally, the master and servant were caught in the dark, and after His Majesty Li Er had breakfast, he began to beat drums and gather generals.
The effort is not big, and the generals gather.
His Majesty Li Er coughed and said, "I had a dream yesterday...... Do you think I'm cranky, or is Qin Guogong already dead and deliberately dreaming of me? β
Li Ji said: "Your Majesty, Weichen can conclude that it is not the dream of the Duke of Qin. β
"What do you mean by that?"
"Your Majesty, what do you think, Qin Guogong is loyal to you, even if he really wants to dream of you, he can't scare you like this, right?"
Zhang Liang said: "That's not necessarily, Qin Guogong just died and is a new ghost." Sure the mana is not enough, it's good to be able to support your dreams, how can you care about picking and choosing? β
His Majesty Li Er said, "What about the opinions of other Aiqing? β
All the generals are from a big old background, they are not as good as Li Ji and Zhang Liang, what can they say? It's nothing more than nonsense, and His Majesty Li Er frowned secretly when he heard it.
Only Mo Hui said: "Qin Guogong will definitely be safe and sound, and His Majesty is concerned about it." β
"Oh? What do you mean by that? β
"Qin Guogong is the incarnation of the Medicine King Buddha, even if he dies, his soul should return to bliss, His Majesty dreamed of Qin Guogong, he should also dream of the Medicine King Buddha, and it has nothing to do with any headless ghosts."
"What kind of mess is this? How did my Qin Guogong get involved with the Medicine Master Wang Buddha? β
"It's a long story......"
When the meeting was finished, His Majesty Li Er and the ministers all looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Everyone intuitively felt that Guo Ye was lying and fooling these barbarians. But how to explain the cure of acne, an age-old terminal disease?
His Majesty Li Er frowned and said, "This... This one...... Rong Zhen pondered carefully. β
At this moment, a small colonel came in and said, "Your Majesty, Liaodong City...... Liaodong City ......"
"How?"
"The city has been planted with the banner of our Datang!"
"Huh? What's going on? All Aiqing, come forward with me and take a look! β
"Whoa!"
Everyone got out of the Chinese military tent, and the effort was not much, so they came to the place outside the city a stone's throw away.
His Majesty Li Er glanced at him, and Xue Rengui came out of the battle and said in a loud voice: "Why are you waiting all over the place. My banner of Datang? Do you want to surrender? β
A junior colonel said: "We are General Sun Daiyin's private soldiers, and now General Sun has decided to surrender to the Tang Dynasty." Hurry up and respond, most of the officers and soldiers in the city are unwilling to surrender, and we have few people, so I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long. β
His Majesty Li Er was overjoyed, and just as he was about to speak, Li Jiyi pulled the reins of his horse and said, "Your Majesty, if you are surrendered to the enemy, you must be very careful!" β
"This ......"
Xue Rengui is also a person who is well versed in the art of war, and said: "Since you have surrendered, where is the Duke of Qin?" Tell him to come out and speak to me. β
"Qin Guocheng controls the overall situation in the City Lord's Mansion, and he can't come to meet with you."
"What about your Sun City Lord?"
"Also in the city."
His Majesty Li Er frowned and said, "Do you think their surrender is true or false?" β
Li Ji shook his head slightly and said, "I'm afraid it's not true." β
