Chapter 571: A Thousand Miles of Sea Map
"It's a big deal!"
Just when Quangai Suwen was waiting quietly in the dormitory, an extremely terrible howl came, which made people a little cautious and panicked.
"My lord, it's not good!" A guy who was fat and fat, and when he ran up, he ran in panting: "It's in, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have entered the imperial city!" β
"What?" Quangai Suwen's sleepiness was all taken aback by the fat man's words, "What did you say?" Datang's army has come in? β
"Yes!" The fat man was so anxious that his face was covered with sweat droplets the size of beans, "A large number of soldiers wearing black training uniforms, riding fast horses, entered from the West Gate, and went straight to the imperial city!" Moreover, they, they kill people when they see them along the way, and they don't distinguish between soldiers and poor people at all! β
"Black training uniform, are you sure you're right?"
As soon as he heard these words, Quan Gai Suwen's face turned green, and the black training uniform was the standard clothing of Shenwuwei, if these guys really wore this thing, I am afraid that it was really the army of the Tang Dynasty.
"Yes, the little one is absolutely not mistaken!" The fat man wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and only felt a terrible feeling rising.
Quangai Wujiang's face changed slightly, and he said: "The elders and adults of the Susu Clan came to the main hall and said that I have something important to discuss!" β
β¦β¦
At this moment, the city was already in flames, and there were fires rushing into the sky everywhere, the roars of escape, the terrible screams before death, and the continuous collapse and roar of buildings......
The city was gloomy, full of ruins and broken walls, and the corpses of Goguryeo people were all over the city, and the whole city was plunged into war.
"How long will it take to get to the Goguryeo Imperial City?" Li Yuanba rode in front of him, looked at the huge city in the distance and asked.
"In half an hour, you will definitely reach the imperial city of Pyongyang!" Su Dingfang visually measured the distance. Tell me an approximate time.
"Okay, order the army to speed up, and the next few artillery pieces and ammunition will also follow, let's make such a big move, the imperial city side doesn't want to rely on sneak attacks to get in, so we can only choose to attack!"
Li Yuanba nodded. With a wave of his hand, the army quickly moved forward.
Finally, after nearly half an hour, the army came to the root of the imperial city.
Compared with Chang'an, the imperial city of Goguryeo is like a toy built by a child, and there is no comparison.
However, this gate could not be attacked without alarming the Goguryeo soldiers.
"Boom, boom!"
This time, Li Yuanba did not have too many deployment orders, and the continuous roar of artillery roared, and the artillery and ammunition that were dragged behind by the army were all pulled to the front. And the artillery fire was ignited.
As a result, the gate of the capital city of Goguryeo began to flash wildly, and after a bombardment of the sky-bombarding position, the heavy gate was quickly smashed into several holes by black cannonballs, and then it made a 'squeak' sound and fell in the direction of the imperial city.
At this time, seeing the city gate being blasted open, a trace of bloodthirsty brilliance flashed in Li Yuanba's eyes. Xue Liang's horizontal knife pointed straight ahead: "Chong, capture Quan Gai Suwen alive for this king!" β
"No!"
Except for the Shenwu guards who stayed in Dengzhou and the ship. The remaining thousands of Datang elites waved the weapons in their hands almost at the same time, roared loudly, clamped the horse's belly with their feet, and rushed towards the imperial city in front of them.
On the top of the imperial city, that group of Goguryeo soldiers who were obviously stunned by the sound of artillery fire just now. It wasn't until the army rushed into the imperial city that they came back to their senses, and their frightened eyes widened at each other, looking at the Shenwu Guards who looked like a black torrent, not knowing what to do now.
"Kill. Kill all these dogs! β
A Goguryeo general dressed in silver armor suddenly pulled out the long knife in his hand and roared loudly.
But then, what responded to him was not the roar of the Goguryeo soldiers he imagined, but a yellow bullet with a round head, a long body, and a flat tail.
"Bang!"
There was only a bang, and a round hole appeared in the throat of the unfortunate Goguryeo general, which was still bleeding crimson blood, and he slowly bent over, his limbs twitched violently, and his whole body was broken from the city wall.
When 10,000 Tang Dynasty iron horsemen arrogantly brandished a standard long knife and entered the imperial city of Goguryeo, this Goguryeo was already doomed.
There were only more than 20,000 Goguryeo soldiers in the city, and the more than 15,000 soldiers stationed in the outer city had been wiped out during the time when the Shenmu guards rushed into Pyongyang, and there were less than 3,000 soldiers actually guarding the inner imperial city.
Compared with the small states of Fanbang that once ravaged the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the combat power of this Goguryeo is simply ordinary Xisong, and they are even inferior to those slaves raised by the small countries of Fanbang.
This battle can even be said to be over before it has even begun!
At the beginning of the time, the entire imperial city and even the entire city of Pyongyang had completely fallen and was controlled by the Shenmuwei army.
Just when Li Yuanba ordered the Shenwu guards to start searching the entire palace, Quangai Suwen actually ran over and surrendered to Li Yuanba.
This is to Li Yuanba greatly surprised, according to Li Yuanba's previous life of historical records, this Quangai Suwen's ambition is very big, in 642 AD, Quangai Suwen launched a coup d'Γ©tat, hand killed Rongliu Wang Gao Jianwu, and set up Gao Jianwu's young brother Gao Zang as the king, since the "Mo Lizhi" dictatorship, since then the Tibetan king is in vain, and the military power and state affairs are all monopolized by Quangai Suwen.
Is it a joke that a guy like this would be willing to be subservient to someone else?
"Call this guy here!" Li Yuanba sat in the main hall of the Goguryeo Imperial Palace, frowned and asked Li Sanduo to go and call Quangai Suwen, who was waiting outside the main hall.
"Quan Gai Suwen, the minister of the lower kingdom, has seen His Royal Highness the Divine Warrior King of the Tang Dynasty of the Heavenly Empire!"
Quangai Suwen had just entered the main hall, and he didn't even have time to look at Li Yuanba, so he knelt down directly, and his flattering expression was not at all proportional to his powerful and fierce appearance.
Li Yuanba didn't speak, but looked him up and down coldly with a husked face.
After a full time of tea, when Quan Gai Suwen felt a little hairy in his heart, Li Yuanba finally spoke:
"It is said that the general Quan Gai Suwen, who is unparalleled in Goguryeo's wisdom and scheming, and how is it that the god is incomparable, and now it seems that it is also the same nose, two eyes, and a pair of ears, nothing special?"
"Huh!"
Quangai Suwen's cold sweat fell suddenly, like a waterfall, and his face was pale and he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he was speechless.
After a long time, a smile appeared on Quan Gai Suwen's face, and said: "Your Highness, it's just those ignorant untouchables who are spreading it crazy, little minister, where does Xiao Chen have such ability!" β
"Izumi-sama is too modest!" An expression of smiling appeared on Li Yuanba's face, and he said, "Your clansmen don't think so!" This king has come all the way, and you Goguryeo people have been talking about you all the time! Saying that you can fight well, how many times have you repelled the invasions of Silla and Baekje, but how come you have become useless directly? β
Quan Gai Suwen was even more scared, he didn't understand why this killer would say such a thing, but his heart trembled!
"Alright, just say it!" Li Yuanba said straight to the point: "Why did you suddenly change your personality and surrender to this king?" β
Quan Gai Suwen glanced up at Li Yuanba in disbelief, how could he see that he didn't really surrender?
"Surprised?" Li Yuanba held his chin with his right hand, stared at Quan Gai Suwen and said: "If you want people to know what to do unless you do, you must know that there is no impermeable wall in this world!" β
"This ......" Quan Gai Suwen was silent for a while, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Since you have seen it, then the minister will not hide it from you." β
Speaking of this, Quan Gai Suwen actually had the courage to stand up, and he continued:
"Xiaochen has just received news that Li Jili, the newly appointed governor of Liaodong Province in Datang, has led his elite army towards our capital! In the current situation, even if the minister is still stubbornly resisting, what can he change? Knowing that you will die but still sending you to die, that is not called loyalty, not called seeing death as home, that is stupid, it is the behavior of mediocrity! β
It's all said. Quan Gai Suwen's tone finally returned to a normal state: "So, in order to survive, the only thing we can do now is to surrender to you and express our due sincerity to Datang!" β
"Huh, sincerity?" Li Yuanba sneered and said, "Right now, your entire Goguryeo is completely in chaos, and even the capital and imperial city have been captured by our Tang Dynasty. What more sincerity can you have? Money? Right? Do you think we Datang lack these things? β
"A map of the sea area with Goguryeo as the center and radiating thousands of miles to the sea!" Quangai Suwen gritted his teeth and spat out these words, as if they had the weight of a forward.
"What? A thousand miles! β
Li Yuanba was really a little shocked, the sea area within a thousand miles outside the Imperial City of Goguryeo, even the Tang Dynasty only explored the sea area of three hundred miles, Goguryeo actually completed a thousand miles, isn't it lying to him?
"You didn't lie to the king?" Li Yuanba stood up from the throne, quickly walked down and glared at Quan Gai Suwen, and said, "If you dare to deceive this king, this king will cramp and peel you alive now!" β
"Don't dare, the minister doesn't dare to deceive His Highness!"
Quangai Suwen took out five deadlock diagrams from his bosom very familiarly, spread them out on the ground and spliced them together, and then said:
"In the paid year, each of these sea maps is a macro map of 100 miles, although there is no detailed map to compare with it, but those large islands have been marked. If the prince doesn't believe the minister's words, he can take some time to verify it. After you have verified, the minister will hand over the detailed drawings to you! (To be continued......)
