Chapter Forty-Seven: The Yuan Clan's Scheme

"Brother, it's clear that we didn't do it, but now almost everyone thinks that we did it, and now the limelight outside is very unfavorable to us, although our Yuan family doesn't care about this, but it's not a good thing after all!" A tall and fat guy said, this person is the Yuan Jingwu who chased Zhou Kun to Beisha City.

"Third brother, it's just some gossip, as long as our Yuan family has the army in our hands, we don't have to worry about some other subsections." The white young man standing side by side with Yuan Jingwu said indifferently. This person's name is Yuan Pure Land, the second in line among the Yuan brothers, and although he is a little proud, he is also a difficult character.

Hearing the words of the two brothers, the tall figure sitting on the main seat was silent, this person looked to be in his thirties, with a mighty face and a bearded face, and he looked like a reckless general, but this person's eyes were cold and full of wisdom, and his whole body was shrouded in a kind of domineering spirit.

Listening to the discussion of the two younger brothers, Yuangai Suwen was silent, and after a long while, he suddenly spoke: "The king and those ministers don't have to worry at all, as for any gossip, I, Yuangai Suwen, don't care about it, but now what I'm worried about is the force that deliberately provokes our Goguryeo infighting." ”

Hearing the words of the eldest brother, Yuan Pure Land and Yuan Jing Wu were also silent, since last year, they have felt that there is a force of unknown origin, which has been provoking the relationship between their Yuan clan and King Yeeliu and those Wen Chen, at first they were not clear about the origin of the other party, guessing that it may be sent by Goguryeo's feud Silla, but with the development of events, they suddenly found out. The manpower and material resources possessed by this force are very terrifying, and it is absolutely impossible for it to be a small country like Silla, and there is no other possibility for the surrounding people to have the strength and reason to do so, except for a Datang.

"The Tang Dynasty is not only provoking our relationship with the king, but also sending troops to loot in our country for more than a year. As a result, my Goguryeo's taxes were reduced by more than two percent, and many people on the border were hungry, and many of the Han people in Liaodong crossed the border one after another and fled to the territory of the Tang Dynasty, so a two-pronged approach. Obviously, the picture is not small! Yuan Pure Land also snorted coldly and said.

"Brother, are you worried that if we make a move with the king, it will lead the Tang Dynasty to raise troops to attack my Goguryeo?" Yuan Jingwu's resourcefulness was not below the two brothers, and he immediately understood the meaning of Yuan Gai Suwen's words.

"Yes, although there is no definite news yet. But I'm 80% sure. The Tang Dynasty must have made preparations in all aspects, as long as we are in conflict with the king, the Tang army will immediately be overwhelmed. Yuangai Suwen said categorically, although he had not met the Tang Emperor, but with the information he had gathered from other aspects, it was certain that the other party had already made Goguryeo a country to be conquered. It's best to have a good opportunity, but if you don't. Then he will create an opportunity, anyway, he will not give up on the immortal Goguryeo.

"Brother. The national strength of the Tang Dynasty is strong, and the Tang army is even more unparalleled, with the national strength of our Goguryeo, it seems that it is difficult to resist the opponent's attack on the country. "Although the Yuan Pure Land is arrogant, it is extremely self-aware, and he is even more in awe of the behemoth of the Tang Dynasty, so he will say so.

"In this case, then do we want to postpone the plan to deal with the king and those ministers, after all, although the strength of the other party is weak, if we want to completely eradicate it, it will definitely cause domestic turmoil, if the Tang Dynasty comes to attack at this time, it will be even more difficult for us to resist!" Yuan Jingwu also said with some worry.

"Hmph, last time you let that person run away, although the other party is likely to be Datang's meticulous work, but with Datang's sinister intentions, they are likely to leak our plan to the king, which can be seen from the performance of those Wenchen during this time, so even if we don't want to launch, do you think those Wenchen will take care of the overall situation like us?" Yuan Gai Su Wen snorted coldly, glared at Yuan Jingwu and reprimanded. Last time, Yuan Jingwu let that fine work run away, if it weren't for the fact that he was his own brother, he would have been cut by himself with a knife.

"Brother is right, now both of us are ready to fly, and there is no room for either side to retreat, presumably this situation is also deliberately created by Datang, whether we want to or not, we will have to go through a battle of life and death in the end." Yuanjing Land's white face also showed a little wry smile, the Tang Dynasty had already transformed the conspiracy into a yang conspiracy, so no matter what they chose, a civil strife in Goguryeo was definitely inevitable.

What the second brother Yuan Pure Land can think of, Yuan Gai Suwen has naturally thought of it a long time ago, and for this problem, he has been thinking about it for a few days, and finally let him think of a way to crack it, but this method is extremely risky, and he has been hesitating to use it, but now it seems that this may be the only way out for their Yuan family and Goguryeo.

Thinking of this, Yuan Gai Suwen stood up with a sigh, turned to Yuan Pure Land and said: "Second brother, you immediately gather the generals, the plan can't wait until the New Year to execute, it's already September, and it must be implemented at the end of this month at the latest!" ”

"Big brother, this is too hasty, we don't have time to prepare!" When the two of them heard this, they were all taken aback, if they did it in such a situation of insufficient preparation, I am afraid that it would cause greater turmoil in the country, and according to the eldest brother's guess, the Tang army outside the country had already prepared, isn't this self-defeating?

"If you don't have time to prepare, you don't have to prepare, with the strength we have at our disposal, are we afraid that they will go to the sky?" Yuan Gai Suwen said sharply, with a resolute look on his face.

Yuan Jingtu and Yuan Jingwu were very clear about their eldest brother's temper, and when they saw the look on his face, they knew that this was because the eldest brother had made up his mind, and no one could change his mind anymore. However, this matter is too important, not only related to the national fortune of their country, but also related to the fate of their Yuan family, and it is not sloppy at all, so it is necessary to ask clearly no matter what.

Thinking of this, the two glanced at each other, stepped forward and knelt down with a solemn face: "Big brother, you are the head of the family, and the decision you made is naturally beyond question, but the younger brother is dull and doesn't understand the intention of the eldest brother's move, please ask the eldest brother to solve the confusion for the younger brother!" ”

Seeing the performance of the two younger brothers, Yuan Gai Suwen, who has always been arbitrary, was angry, and just wanted to lose his temper and scolded them, but then he thought that they were also thinking about the Yuan family, and the anger dissipated a little at the moment, and after a while, he said with a calm face: "You all get up!" ”

The two of them were ready to be scolded, but they didn't expect to wait for the eldest brother's calm words, and they both had some doubts in their hearts, so they stood up and looked at Yuan Gai Suwen's face uneasily, and found that although his face was gloomy, there was no sign of anger, so they put their minds at ease.

"Do you know what advantages my Goguryeo has compared with the Tang Dynasty?" Yuangai Suwen asked in a deep voice.

Hearing the eldest brother's question, the two of them looked at each other, I don't know why he suddenly asked this question?

"Humph! The factors that affect the outcome of a war are nothing more than the three aspects of time, location, and people, and needless to say, my Goguryeo has lost in this regard, but our country is mountainous, although the city building technology is not as good as the Tang Dynasty, but most of the cities are built in extremely dangerous places, and it is not so easy for the Tang army to conquer it, so we have won in this geographical advantage. ”

Hearing Yuangai Suwen's words, the two brothers of Yuanjing Land also nodded again and again, it was not that they didn't know about these, but they were in a hurry just now, and they didn't think of it for a while.

"Although the location and people are important, I think the most important thing is the time, especially for us in Goguryeo." Yuangai Suwen finally said the most critical point he thought of, and his face was filled with excitement, "Liaodong is bitterly cold, the temperature in winter is extremely low, most of the Tang army are children of Guanzhong, although the winter in Guanzhong is cold, but compared with my Liaodong, it is much worse, this year's winter came exceptionally early, it is only September, and the leaves have already fallen off, so I conclude that this winter is even colder than usual." ”

"Ahh I understand, it turns out that the eldest brother wants to take advantage of the cold of Liaodong to let the Tang Dynasty return. "Both of them are smart people, and when they heard this, they immediately understood what the eldest brother meant.

"Yes, if we launch at the end of the month, it is estimated that within a month, the domestic turmoil can be calmed down, if the Tang army wants to take the opportunity to attack our country, it will definitely choose to send troops within this month, and then just catch up with the first north wind of winter, then we only need to take advantage of the time and location to hold on for two months, at that time the Tang army's sharp spirit has been exhausted, and it is the coldest season of the whole winter, plus the New Year is approaching, the soldiers will definitely have no heart to fight, as long as we take this opportunity to launch an attack, fight a few victories, Not only can it hit the morale of the other party, but it can also make the Tang army have the intention of retreating, after all, no matter how strong the national strength of the Tang Dynasty is, it will definitely not be able to withstand such consumption! ”

Yuangai Suwen's analysis is reasonable, and the war is divided into two stages, the front is to hold on, the back is to counterattack, and the rational use of time and place is good, if nothing else, it can be said that there is a great chance of victory. At least in the eyes of the two brothers of the Pure Land.

"The eldest brother is strategic, and the younger brother admires it!" The two of them bowed to the ground, convinced of their eldest brother.

"Now that you understand my intentions, hurry up and do something, time is running out now, you can prepare a little more!" Yuangai Suwen didn't care about the compliments of the two younger brothers, but immediately commanded.

The two of them agreed, and immediately turned around and left the Yuan Mansion, contacting the various generals who supported them overnight. It's just that after seeing the two younger brothers leave, Yuan Gai Suwen sighed slightly, and said in an undetectable voice: "I hope God bless my Yuan clan, and I can really hold on for two months!" ”

At the same time that the Yuan clan stepped up their preparations, King Rongliu also got some rumors from there, and began to prepare for self-defense, and a bloody storm slowly kicked off in this bleak autumn Pyongyang city. (Site. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
