Chapter 101: Under the Castle of Pyongyang
Yuan Nanchan is full of confidence this time, the so-called one inch long, one inch strong, especially in the horse battle, the spear and halberd really occupy too many advantages compared to the horizontal knife, if you can't win like this, then you don't have to mix it anymore.
But he didn't expect that his so-called advantage was not worth mentioning in front of the master at all, just when he stabbed Li Xian with a shot, Li Xian suddenly reached out and grabbed the head of the spear, and then with a little force, he actually snatched his spear.
"Huh? This, how is this possible? What kind of demon law does you make? Yuan Nansheng never imagined that such a thing would happen, and the whole person was stunned on the spot as if he was stupid.
But Li Xian didn't want to give him another chance, he couldn't miss the opportunity, and when he turned the head of the gun, he stabbed into the lower abdomen of the Yuan boy with a snort.
"Ahh......h
At this moment, I suddenly heard a person behind me shouting loudly: "King, be merciful to your subordinates, although your brother is evil, but not the culprit, I hope that the king will be merciful and spare his life." β
Li Xian was stunned when he heard this, and immediately thought of the identity of the person who came, who was the eldest son of Yuangai Suwen, that is, the eldest brother of this Yuan boy, and now the head of the march army in Pyongyang, the Tang Dynasty, the ambassador of Liaodong, and the boy who holds the festival. Of course, because his surname offended Gaozu Li Yuan's obscurity, he changed his surname to Quan, which was for Quan boys.
"It turned out to be the chief manager of Quan, disrespectful and disrespectful, I don't know what is the important matter for the chief manager of Quanda to come to Xiao Wang in such a hurry?" Li Xian slowly patted his horse to greet him, and then said to the boy Quan.
Seeing that Li Xian was polite to him, the Quan boy could only return the salute and repeat Fang Cai's words again.
saw Li Xian suddenly said in surprise: "So it's for this? I'm really embarrassed, just then Ling Di wanted to kill Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang was forced to fight back for self-protection, but unexpectedly missed for a while, and actually injured Ling Di, Quanda Manager took a look, Ling Di can still be saved? Xiao Wang will definitely save Brother Ling at all costs. β
Hearing this, the boy suddenly turned pale, Li Xianzhi's bravery had already spread throughout the Tang Army, and he naturally knew that his younger brother was definitely a judgment compared to him in martial arts, so he hurriedly ran over and persuaded his younger brother not to kill himself, but when he came, he found that it was still too late, and his younger brother was still injured.
"Hopefully, there is still a chance to save it." The spring boy was very worried, but now, he had to look at the situation first, and as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he must not give up.
So the spring boy hurriedly rushed to the front of Yuan Nansheng, but after just one glance, his tears flowed out, because his younger brother had already become a bloody person, and the whole person had already dilated his pupils, only the qi that came out, and there was no qi in it.
"Third brother, third brother." The spring boy tearfully helped the Yuan boy and called loudly.
Perhaps it was Izumi's sincerity that moved the heavens, and after his many calls, Yuan finally woke up.
"Big brother? How did you get here? When he was dying, Yuan Nan saw his relatives, and the previous unhappiness had already been thrown out of the clouds, and he muttered.
"Third brother, what's wrong with you?" Izumi asked softly with tears in his eyes.
But he heard a long sigh and said slowly: "There is a saying in the Southern Dynasty, brothers are of the same heart, and their profits are cut off, if my brothers are of one heart and one mind, and jointly protect the society, how can there be today's disaster?" Now that my brothers are in dispute, but they are benefited by the people of the Southern Dynasty, under the Nine Springs in the future, what face will my brothers have to go to see my father......"
In the end, Yuan Nansheng couldn't get up in one breath, and he died of anger.
"Third brother, third brother......" The spring boy hugged his brother's body, howled and cried, and finally couldn't help the huge grief and spit out a mouthful of blood, which relieved his grief a little under the persuasion of the accompanying soldiers, but to this day, although he also has a trace of remorse in his heart, but if it wasn't for the two brothers who didn't tolerate him, why did he go all the way to the Tang Dynasty?
"Third brother, third brother, it's not that my brother is unkind, it's really that the second brother is too persecuted by you, that is, my brother is willing to stay in Goguryeo, and is willing to be a commoner, are you willing to let me?"
Boy Quan wept silently and sighed, and after a while, he came to Li Xian and informed him of his brother's death.
Li Xianyan immediately said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I really didn't expect Xiao Wang to shoot too hard, and Brother Ling finally died." β
"In fact, this matter is the fault of the inferior brother, and he can't complain about the king, and the king doesn't have to feel guilty." How did the boy know that this matter was actually intentional by Li Xian? Seeing that the other party took the initiative to apologize, he had to forget it.
After this, Li Xian allowed the boy to bury his brother by himself, and then returned to the camp by himself, met with Li Ji, Xue Rengui and others, and ordered Yang Siqi, who had been captured, to be escorted into his camp.
"General Yang, you have been captured by me again, what do you have to say?" Li Xian looked at Yang Siqi and asked with a smile.
But seeing Yang Siqi sigh softly: "Since he was captured by the king today, he wants to kill or chop, and he listens to it." Hehe, the king has a good counter-plan, and he actually made the marshal suspicious of me with a word, and now the last general is a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats, and he can no longer gain a foothold in Goguryeo, and Silla is a foreign race, and the last general would rather die than defect, I am afraid that the last general has no other way than to die today. β
Li Xianyan laughed and said: "This is not true, there is another way, that is to take refuge in this king, at least this king will guarantee your life, and after several years of training, I believe that you will definitely achieve something extraordinary." β
Although he guarded Li Ji, Li Xian did not hide his intention at all, that is, to take this Yang Siqi under his account, instead of making him surrender to the imperial court.
Yang Siqi may not have heard the difference between the two clearly, or although he heard clearly, he deliberately pretended to be confused, anyway, he obviously hesitated for a moment, and then asked sideways: "The last general just wants to ask, with such wisdom and strategy, how can he be so naΓ―ve in front of the king, how can he be worthy of the king's unsparing solicitation?" β
But I heard Li Xian say solemnly: "Can make the soldiers under his command exchange their own freedom for a way of life, and can make the soldiers under his command all die for it sincerely, isn't such a character the best among people?" As for the wisdom of the war, it is not that the general's wisdom is short, according to Xiao Wang, there should be two reasons, one is that the general is still young and lacks experience, this is the second, although the general is rough in the art of war, he knows only one scale and half a claw, and naturally cannot be used flexibly, if the general can be attached, Xiao Wang is willing to pay for the history books for the general to read, as for the war, I am martial arts in the Tang Dynasty, I believe that the general will have enough experience, so that over time, it is not difficult to become a generation of famous generals. β
After finishing speaking, Li Xian personally untied Yang Siqi's rope, placed him on the upper seat, and bowed again: "I hope that the general will live up to Xiao Wang's sincerity and show his talents in his chest, so that the general will not only achieve fame, but also leave a name in history and be admired by future generations." β
Yang Siqi saw that Li Xian invited him so sincerely, and he was also moved in his heart, and hurriedly stood up, bowed down and bowed: "The king treats the last general as a national soldier, how can the last general not know what to do?" If the king does not give up, the last general is willing to serve the king for the work of dogs and horses. β
"Okay, Xiao Wang has to be a general, it's really like a fish in water." Li Xian stretched out his hand to help Yang Siqi up, and said with a smile.
Not long after, when Yang Siqi left with gratitude, and after Li Xian returned to the tent, Dou Xiantong couldn't help but ask curiously: "That surnamed Yang can't be a martial artist, why is he so trying so hard to solicit it?" β
But I heard Li Xian say: "I don't understand here, it is precisely because this surnamed Yang is not a martial artist, so he has no ambition, and after this person is a famous general, he must have a lot of prestige in Goguryeo, and after he pacifies Goguryeo, I use this person to appease and educate the people of Goguryeo, so that the hearts of the people are all owned by me, which is equivalent to a Goguryeo for nothing, and as long as it is supplemented by a capable general, it will be able to make Goguryeo as stable as a rock, not to mention that this surnamed Yang is also quite talented, but the male production of Naquan does not know people's ears." β
"Hmph, I really don't know that this guy looks very sincere, and his intentions are so treacherous." Dou Xiantong snorted and said sarcastically at Li Xian.
Unexpectedly, a certain king was thick-skinned, and he had already reached the realm of invulnerability, and he didn't care about Dou Xiantong's words at all, but said with a smile: "This king has always been unscrupulous for outsiders, but he can be absolutely sincere to his own people, just like this Yang Siqi, although he can use it to appease the people of Goguryeo and win the hearts of the people, but as long as he does a good job and is loyal to me, I will definitely treat each other sincerely and never lose each other!" β
Speaking of this, Li Xian's face rarely had a serious look, and this solemnity made Dou Xiantong couldn't help but be surprised and said: "I can't see that your serious appearance is so awe-inspiring, maybe this guy really has the appearance of a gentleman." β
"Look at what you said, why do you have no faith in this king? I believe that this king will definitely have that day in the future. Li Xian's gaze was deep and far-reaching, although it seemed to be said to Dou Xiantong, it was actually more like what he said to himself.
After a night of deliberation, Li Ji decided that early the next morning, led by Li Xian, supplemented by Xue Rengui, followed by Hao Chujun, Qi Bi He Li, and Pang Tongshan, the main cavalry of the commander took the lead in rushing to the city of Pyongyang to complete the siege of Pyongyang City, while Li Ji led the infantry, siege troops, and baggage troops to march slowly, and at the same time ordered Guo Beifeng's naval army, Kim Inwen's Silla army, and Liu Rengang's Xiongjin Governor's army to also march to Pyongyang City one after another, with a total of more than 200,000 troops, vowing to destroy Goguryeo.
At this time, Yuan Nanjian, who was in Pyongyang, was shocked to hear the news that his third brother was killed and the whole army was wiped out, and he was stunned for a long time.
"Don't leave the branch, what should we do now? According to Xiao Wang, I can't wait for ......"
"No!" Yuan Nanjian naturally knew that King Gozang meant to surrender, but as a careerist, as the son of Yuan Gai Suwen, and as the ruler of Goguryeo, who had defeated the three invasions of Emperor Yang of Sui's million-strong army, the tens of thousands of troops of Tang Taizong, and the current Tang Emperor's continuous attack for more than ten years, how could he choose to surrender?
Therefore, Yuan Jiannan categorically refused: "Our country has existed for hundreds of years, and how many winds and waves have it experienced? Even with talents such as Emperor Yang of Sui and Taizong of Tang, they can also stand tall, not to mention that the current Tang Emperor is mediocre and cowardly, so why be afraid? Please believe that the king will not be able to pass for a long time, and Weichen will definitely let the Tang thief retreat in a daze. β
"In this way, my country will ask Da Mo to leave the branch, and the little king will thank the people of the country in advance." Gao Zang respectfully thanked Yuan Nanjian, but there was a strange look in his eyes.
