Congratulations to Your Majesty, what a great victory.

Your Majesty is wise, and it is a feat of our dynasty to destroy this murderous captive while talking and laughing.

Your Majesty, if you win this battle, Goguryeo can be beaten with a snap of your fingers.

Before the war was over, a group of ministers who were accompanying them immediately rushed forward, and there was a burst of slaps at Li Shimin, all kinds of flattering words were endless, and the sound of drumming was like a surging river.

Hahaha Listening to the flattering words of the ministers, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing out loud, the laughter was full of excitement, but Li Shimin was not only happy about the victory in this battle, but also because he was excited to find Xue Rengui Such a tiger general Over the years, although there have been many young generals such as Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Wuting in the Tang Army, there are very few generals like Xue Rengui, as for the crown prince Li Zhen, although he is brave in the three armies, but after all, he is now the prince. Since he can no longer be as casually trapped on the battlefield as before, there are heroes like Xue Rengui who can stand out, which can be regarded as alleviating the embarrassment of the shortage of fierce generals in the Tang Army, of course, this is just Li Shimin's own opinion, in fact, among the generals in the Northwest, there are many people whose martial arts are no less than Xue Rengui, but because Li Zhen's own light is too much, Li Shimin did not perceive the fierceness and good fighting of the generals in the Northwest.

Come and send a letter to the Gao brothers, if they are willing to surrender, I will treat them well, if not, the jade will be burned, and Xue Rengui will immediately go up the mountain to see him. After Li Shimin laughed for a while, he looked at the remnants of Goguryeo on the opposite mountain peak with his hands behind his back, and said very heroically. Since the old man gave the order, a group of his own personal eunuchs were busy answering the promise and not mentioning it.

The battle was won, and the Tang army was a group of joy, but Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, was not happy because of this, but was more worried, looked at Li Shimin with a red face, and wanted to remind him, but he didn't have the courage to take the Northern Expedition as early as before, Li Zhen had an explanation, saying that Anshi and Wugu were the two key points to take Goguryeo, if they couldn't take it in one go, it was very likely to fall into a protracted war. However, when Li Daozong proposed a surprise attack on Pyongyang the previous time, he was just reprimanded by the old man, and he was quite timid at this time, and he didn't dare to say more, but he didn't want to stop there, and after a deep groan, he quietly retreated back and walked down the mountain road.

Excited, extremely excited! Although the white clothes on his body have turned into bloody clothes, sweat and heavy armor, and his body is very tired, but walking on the way up the mountain, Xue Rengui is still so excited that he can't help himself, of course, he has enough reasons to be excited, just by virtue of his mere right Lang will be able to meet Tianyan, this kind of glory is not something ordinary people can have, at this time Xue Rengui can't wait to climb to the top of the mountain in one step, but he wants to think, do it, and abide by the rules, Xue Rengui will not violate it, so he can only be patient with excitement, Accompanied by Liu Donghe, the inner attendant, he walked steadily to the top of the mountain.

General Xue, in today's battle, a certain family was terrified when he saw it on the mountain, if it weren't for General Xue's heroic skills, I am afraid that the results of this battle are really hard to say, amazing, hehe, a certain family is impressed. Liu Donghe accompanied Xue Rengui to the mountain, while smiling and flattering, the flattery on his face was really obvious, so that several little eunuchs on the side were dumbfounded to know that Liu Donghe was a close servant of the Son of Heaven, and only others had to say that he had always had his share, and there were very few times when Liu Donghe bowed his head to please others, but to put it bluntly, it is not surprising that Liu Donghe was well-informed, and he had long known that Xue Rengui was a general of Li Zhen's family, and now he was valued by Li Shimin, and the future prospects would be incomparably brilliant. can take advantage of the fact that Xue Rengui has not yet jumped up, and first set up a friendship, and it will be good to talk about it in the future.

Gonggong Liu has an overreputation, and the last general really can't afford it. Although Xue Rengui was very excited in his heart, he did not get carried away, and in the face of the praise of real power figures such as Liu Donghe, he really couldn't stand it for a while, and responded a little shyly.

Hehe, General Xue is too modest, Your Majesty rarely praises people, today Liu Donghe peeked at Xue Rengui's face with a shy taste, and secretly laughed in his heart, but he still said it very politely, and as he was talking, he saw Li Daozong flash out of the forest next to the road, and he stopped in a hurry, and arched his hand and said: Li Shangshu, you are

Gonggong Liu invited, hehe, this is Xue Rengui and General Xue? Li Daozong returned the salute with a smile, but his eyes fell on Xue Rengui.

Although Liu Donghe knew that Li Daozong was knowingly asking, he didn't dare to be the slightest slack, and replied with a smile: This is General Xue, Your Majesty is waiting to see General Xue.

Oh. Li Daozong said noncommittally, and after a little silence, he gritted his teeth and said: Gonggong Liu, this official has something to ask General Xue, I don't know if I can be accommodating?

This Liu Donghe had already guessed that Li Daozong was going out halfway, and he must have come for Xue Rengui, but he didn't expect that he had already carried Li Shimin out, Li Daozong still insisted on stopping him, he was quite hesitant for a while, and after being stunned for a while, he nodded his head a little unwillingly and said: Okay, don't let Your Majesty wait for a long time.

Thank you Liu Gonggong for making it happen, and this official should have a report. Li Daozong knew that Liu Donghe could agree to his private meeting with Xue Rengui, and he was quite grateful, and after thanking him, he waved to the inexplicable Xue Rengui and said: General Xue, please here. As soon as the words fell, he walked towards the forest by the road without looking back. Xue Rengui was stunned, then looked at Liu Donghe's face again, then gritted his teeth, followed, and walked behind Li Daozong silently.

Today's battle can have this result, General Xue's great merit, the official admires, well, before a certain expedition, His Royal Highness has confessed, Anshi, Wugu two cities are dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you can't fight down, it is very likely to delay the course of the war, now although the enemy's main force has been annihilated, but the remnants of the army have fled to Anshi, if you can't take advantage of its foothold is not stable, then there will be trouble, a certain begging General Xue to ask himself in front of His Majesty to lead the army to take Anshi City, I don't know if General Xue is willing to do? Li Daozong never looked back, just whispered as he walked.

There is no friendship between Xue Rengui and Li Daozong, but Li Zhen has the grace of promotion and the love of giving horses, at this time Li Daozong mentioned Li Zhen's explanation in his words, Xue Rengui was stunned when he was stunned, and then thought about it carefully, this statement is true, although he was puzzled about why Li Daozong did not speak by himself, but he still firmly agreed: Li Shangshu rest assured, the last general will ask for his life to take Anshi City.

As soon as he heard Xue Rengui's promise, Li Daozong stopped suddenly, and after being silent for a while, he let out a sigh and said: That's good, there is General Lao Xue, His Majesty is still waiting on the top of the mountain, General Xue will just ask.

Yes, the last will take his leave. Xue Rengui didn't dare to slack off, saluted respectfully, and then withdrew from the forest, joined Liu Donghe and others, and went to the top of the mountain.

Alas, Your Highness, I have done my best, if it doesn't work, it will be providential! Li Daozong did not look back at Xue Rengui and the others, but stood silently in place for a long time, sighed, shook his head, and muttered, his words full of melancholy.

See Your Majesty, the last general is in armor and can't pay a full salute, please Your Majesty Haihan. Xue Rengui followed Liu Donghe to the top of the mountain, and when he saw Li Shimin beckoning to him with a smile from afar, he hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully gave a military salute.

Excuse me, excuse me. Li Shimin raised his hand with a smile, signaled Xue Rengui to be flat, looked at Xue Rengui with great interest, the more he looked at it, the more he loved it, and laughed and said: I am an old general, and I can't bear to be sent by outsiders.

Facing Li Shimin's praise, Xue Rengui bowed down with a look of trepidation on his face and replied: The last general is willing to serve His Majesty.

Well, Qing has contributed to the country, I should be rewarded, and I will pass on my will: Xue Rengui is in danger, and he saves the danger of the army with a horse, and his contribution is great, and he will be promoted to the post of general of Jin Wuwei, and he will be rewarded with thousands of dollars, and ten people will be enslaved! Li Shimin laughed and issued a reward order.

The last general will thank the Lord Longen, and he will serve his life to repay it! Xue Rengui was grateful for Li Shimin's reward, knelt on the ground with moist corners of his eyes, and thanked him in a choked voice.

Li Shimin was quite satisfied with Xue Rengui's statement, raised his hand with a smile and said: Okay, Aiqing can be trusted with this, just calm down.

Xue Rengui stood up, bowed down, and arched his hand: Your Majesty, the last general still has a request, and now that the enemy has been defeated, Anshi will be chaotic.

Oh? Li Shimin obviously didn't expect Xue Rengui's request to be this matter, he was stunned for a moment, and when he was hesitating whether to agree or not, he saw the eldest grandson Wuji flash out from the side and said: Your Majesty, although the enemy is defeated now, there are tens of thousands of people on the mountain, although our army has won, but it has been a hard battle, if the troops are divided at this time, one is afraid that the encirclement will be negligent, and the enemy can take advantage of it. It is expected that the enemy of Anshi is not only frightened, but it is easy to take, and there is no need to be so urgent.

Not. Li Shimin originally wanted to agree to Xue Rengui's proposal, but when he heard the eldest grandson Wuji's words at this time, he couldn't help but hesitate a little, answered noncommittally, and fell his eyes on Li Ji, the secretary of the military department.

The eldest grandson Wuji's words are beautiful, in fact, he doesn't want to watch another general of Li Zhen's family rise, although this point of caution is hidden, but it can't hide from Li Ji, who is also scheming, but Li Ji also doesn't want his authority in the army to be impacted, at this time, seeing Li Shimin's inquiring gaze, he immediately stood up and said: Your Majesty, what Lord Situ said is very true, how can a mere Yi'an City City block the power of my army, it is better to take down the enemy here first, and then make a plan.

Well, that's it. Li Shimin saw that the two important ministers of Wu were opposed to the rapid attack on Anshi City, so he didn't insist anymore, nodded and said: General Xue has a hard time fighting today, let's go down and rest first.

The last will be retired. Although Xue Rengui is a general, he is far less far-reaching than Li Zhen in terms of military strategy, and secondly, he has not studied the entire Goguryeo strategy, and he does not know the strategic significance of Anshi City and Wugu City, and the reason why he made a request is only because of his trust in Li Zhen.

At the end of the unitary time, the sky gradually darkened, compared to the continuous light of torches under the mountain, the top of the hill where Gao Yanshou brothers were located was pitch black, the wails of the wounded soldiers, the cries of the soldiers were intertwined into a miserable symphony in the dark, the whole army had no food and grass, no reinforcements outside, even there was no tent for camping, and more than 40,000 people in the whole army had to sleep in the mountains and forests, sitting in the dead place, how could it be melancholy.

Big brother, in this situation, alas, damn it, Yang Wanchun, that bastard dared to escape, if it weren't for this troublemaker, how would I have fallen into such a field, this damn dog thief, mother, hold that guy, Lao Tzu has to pick his dog skin! After the Gao brothers arranged the army's guards, they huddled in a simple house built with thatch and tree branches temporarily, and after sitting silently for a long time, Gao Huizhen, who was impatient, took the lead in losing his breath, stood up angrily, and scolded Yang Wanchun, who fled with the troops, to a bloody head.

Gao Yanshou never thought that Yang Wanchun would escape from the battle, causing his side to be attacked by the Tang army in three ways, but in Gao Yanshou's view, in terms of the battlefield situation at that time, even if Yang Wanchun did not escape, the Goguryeo side would not be able to escape defeat in this battle, at most, it was just a delay in the time of defeat, and the result was not much different, but if it was considered from the overall battle situation, if Yang Wanchun could really successfully return to the empty garrison of Anshi City with his soldiers and horses, it would be conducive to delaying the pace of the Tang army's march, in this sense, Yang Wanchun escaped correctly, but in this way, even if the Gao family army was completely buried, the more than 40,000 remnants on the mountain were already in the place of death.

That's it, let's not talk about this, now that the Tang envoy is here, it is right to think about how to answer. Gao Yanshou obviously didn't want to talk about Yang Wanchun anymore, frowned, and said with a wry smile.

Surrender? Fart! The family members of Lao Tzu are all in Pyongyang, if we are lowered, how can the old and young in the family have their lives and break through! Fuck it, rush out and count it! Gao Huizhen jumped to her feet, blushing and shouting thickly.

Breakthrough? Hey, second brother, you have a sudden look, there are hundreds of thousands of Tang troops under the mountain, what can be used to break through the siege, and it is almost the same to send them to death! As soon as he saw Gao Huizhen shouting, Gao Yanshou became anxious, his eyes widened, and he reprimanded angrily.

Alas! Gao Huizhen is just shouting, how can he not know that now his remnants are not to mention morale, but there is nothing in the stomach, and it is already time to snicker if he can hold the mountain at this time, as for the breakthrough, it is just a joke, but he was unwilling to surrender to the Tang army, sat down depressedly, hooked his head and said: Big brother, you don't know that Gai Suwen is that person, if the Tang army wins, it would be good, Gai Suwen would not dare to take me and other family members, I am afraid that the Tang army will not win, once I wait to surrender, and the Tang army withdraws, I'm afraid that you and my family will lose their lives.

Alas, Gao Yanshou was also depressed for a while when he thought of Gai Suwen's ruthless and paranoid temperament, but compared to Gao Huizhen, who only considered his family, Gao Yanshou thought more about the lives of the remaining more than 40,000 soldiers under his command, and really wanted more than 40,000 soldiers to do the funeral for himself, Gao Yanshou really couldn't bear to do this, sighed, and was silent for a long time, then continued: Second brother, I have a family, and 40,000 soldiers also have families, these are the strength of my clan, and they are all lost here. That's how many people are going to point at the backbone of our waiting and scold, big brother, alas, big brother can't act like this.

This, alas! Although Gao Huizhen is a dry person, he is not a ruthless person, and he can't do anything wrong with the lives of more than 40,000 people, so he sighed, lowered his head and stopped talking.

That's it, if the Heavenly Khan can let my troops strong, I'll wait for it to be lowered. After the brothers sat opposite each other for a long time, Gao Yanshou gritted his teeth and made up his final decision.

Big brother, you can't it, at home, the old mother and children in the family Gao Huizhen was anxious when he heard that Gao Yanshou was going to fall, Huo Ran got up, stared at Gao Yanshou with a red face and a thick neck, and shouted anxiously.

As soon as he thought of his mother and children and grandchildren at home, the corners of Gao Yanshou's eyes were moist, his eyes were red, two lines of tears had flowed out, his face was full of sadness, and he sobbed: It's better to cry all the way than to cry as a family, in this battle, my clan said that more than 20,000 people have died tragically, counting the captives in the hands of the Tang Army, there are more than 40,000 people, if it does not fall, once Tian Khan gets angry, not to mention the 40,000 people on the mountain, even the 40,000 captives are afraid that they will have to be martyred, how can so many lives be afforded, what can the second brother teach me?

I, alas, that's it, that's it, since the eldest brother has made up his mind, the younger brother listens to it, and the real heaven wants to kill me Goguryeo? Gao Huizhen was stunned, then squatted on the floor with his head in his hands, and cried to himself.

Gao Yanshou looked at Gao Huizhen, who was crying very sadly, and shed tears for a while, and then resolutely got up, strode out of the simple thatched house, looked at the bright lights in the Tang camp at the foot of the mountain, raised his voice and shouted: Come on, please come to see the Tang envoy immediately! The voice trembled as it drifted through the night sky as the evening breeze drifted away
