Etoshi Wende has decided to fight to the death, he will not surrender, and there is no need to surrender.

But he does not represent the entire Goguryeo army, let alone all the ordinary people in Anshi City.

Niu Jinda entered Anshi City, and the five hundred steps inside the west gate had been firmly controlled.

"General, the enemy army lord will enter the city lord's mansion."

"Report, Goguryeo has a general, and two granaries are offered. Two of the three gates of the southern city have been taken over by our army. ”

Niu Jinda looked around and said loudly: "One more city, this will definitely become a prosperous city in Liaodong Province in the future." Niu Jinda didn't seem to answer the sergeant who came to report, but just said to himself.

"Report, the main force of the enemy army is scattered throughout the city, and it seems that they are preparing to fight to the death!"

Hearing the word of death battle, Niu Jinda gave a heavy sigh of gratitude, glanced at the generals, lieutenants, and lieutenants beside him, and then said: "The Goguryeo people are going to fight hard, they have their determination." And I'll wait for ......" Niu Jinda's tone changed, and he slowly drew his saber.

"And we wait, and we have the determination to wait." Niu Jinda loudly lectured his subordinates.

"Fight!" The generals responded in unison, and at this time, the Tang Army's fighting spirit was high, and its morale was like a rainbow!

"The general ordered the gates of the city to be blocked with firewood and grass, and the Goguryeo people set fire to the siege if they were going to break through. With the regiment as a unit, a street will be swept over by a house. Those who do not descend, kill! The soldiers are in front, and the auxiliaries are in the back. The cavalry was dispatched to suppress all the enemy troops standing in the streets, and those who did not kneel on the ground were killed! ”

Niu Jinda is not afraid of hard work.

You Goguryeo people will say that you will defend your home and country, but our Tang army is carrying even more.

Training day after day. Dry rice and meat are supplied, and our Tang army is more elite.

Whoever insults me Datang, die!

There was no day or night on the battlefield, only killing and being killed, and after a short period of calm, there was once again a continuous shout of killing in the city of Anshi.

Jian'an City!

The two ships Weiyuan and Zhenyuan had already landed outside the city, and Li Jing went out to greet them.

When he saw the King of Goguryeo and Gao Jianwu who were not arrested, he knew the news, but Li Jing was still somewhat surprised. Just because it was too fast, the city of Pyongyang was taken in one morning. Li Jing has led the army for many years. He also knew how many dead and wounded it would take to capture a heroic city.

"Senior Brother Yao. There will be no accidents in Anshi Castle. ”

"Goro, this ......" Li Jing really didn't know what to say.

Li Yuanxing motioned to the advanced city to settle these envoys first. As for the captives, Li Yuanxing knew that there was a Gao Jianwu. It is simply not known how many prisoners there are left. Li Yuanxing didn't ask about this kind of trivial matter. Lu Maofeng didn't report to him, and he didn't report how much Wei Chigong had arrested.

Sit in the middle of the city of Anshi. Only then did Li Yuanxing say to the generals: "No one can beat our Datang. But our Datang is not invincible in the world. The first enemy comes from ourselves, without a good army system, once the army is corrupted, no matter how strong the weapons are, we will also be defeated! ”

"Remember Your Highness's teachings!"

The generals responded in unison.

"There is another enemy, which is distance. Chang'an to Pyongyang City, if you walk at least 8,000 miles. At such a distance, it is impossible to keep up with us just by supplementing us, let alone fighting. How to restrain the problem of distance and how to ensure logistics are the most important things for the future Datang Military Department, of course, not only the Military Department, but the entire Datang. Taking this opportunity, this king is ready to put on a seal, the Tang Dynasty military reform! ”

The matter of military reform has been discussed many times, and the reason why it cannot be changed is that it is difficult to break the tradition.

There is no way to discuss a very strict plan on how to change it.

"Soldier selection, reduce the number of soldiers. Changing some of the weaker soldiers into high-level auxiliaries, whose task is to serve the future railways, or call them railroad soldiers, their role ......"

Li Yuanxing was about to say some of his thoughts on military reform, when a captain wearing a red vest came in.

This vest is the emblem of the soldier in charge of the radio station.

Li Yuanxing couldn't help but stop what he was talking about.

"Report, General Cheng sent a telegram that the city of Wunushan had fallen, and none of the Goguryeo nobles in the city had fled. General Hou Lianke three cities, has chosen a city garrison, waiting for orders. Lei Qi is already resting and will leave for Dandong Port tomorrow morning. There are no enemies left for hundreds of miles around Anshi City. ”

Hearing the report, Li Yuanxing said softly: "Let the armies be stationed and rest for a day!" ”

"Yes!" The lieutenant in charge of the radio saluted and retreated.

Now is no longer the time to say anything about military reform, Li Jing ordered people to take out the map and start thinking about further jihua.

Li Yuanxing picked up a pen, started from Dandong in the north, and then crossed the domestic city, and Zuihou extended to the sea in one breath. "This is the new border, let's fight!"

Li Jing nodded: "The Chinese army will go to war and sweep away all the resisting enemies in Ping'an City!" ”

Niu Jinda only brought a part of the army, Li Jing is all the main force here, Li Jing believes that he can control all the Anshi City in one night, and then defend, there is no need to rush about Beisha City, when this defense line is completed, Beisha City will become a lonely city, there is the Tang Navy on the sea, Pyongyang City has been destroyed, Beisha City has been defeated.

Li Jing dispatched, but Li Yuanxing stayed in Jian'an City.

There is no need for the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty to go to the front line in person, the Tang army is already full of morale, and there is no need for Li Yuanxing to boost morale in person.

At dinner, Li Yuanxing invited Gao Jianwu to eat together.

"No matter what, will you attack my Great Goguryeo?" Gao Jianwu didn't move the food in front of him, but asked.

Li Yuanxing didn't answer immediately, just ate by himself.

"King Qin?" Gao Jianwu asked again.

He was no longer afraid of death, there was nothing left to threaten him.

Li Yuanxing put down his chopsticks: "You are very annoying, this king invites you to dinner together." It's not to humiliate you, it's not to put on a winner's posture. I didn't plan to discuss anything with you, I just gave a person the status of a prince and a little respect. ”

"You!" Gao Jianwu was really choked by Li Yuanxing.

"Remember, don't say you're a prisoner of war now, even if you're still the king of Goguryeo. Nor is your status in the presence of this king equal to that of this king. You can eat that meal if you want, and you can leave if you don't want to eat it. ”

Gao Jianwu was really angry.

When Gao Jianwu stretched out his hand to grab the corner of the table in Xiaoji, Li Yuanxing suddenly said: "Don't knock over the food, otherwise this king will order someone to stuff the food on the ground into your mouth." This king said that every grain is hard! ”

After that, Li Yuanxing continued to eat his dinner.

Gao Jianwu froze, half-standing, one hand still grasping the corner of the table.

He didn't doubt Li Yuanxing's words at all, as long as he dared to flip the table, Li Yuanxing would dare to let people stuff the food that had been knocked on the ground mixed with mud in his mouth.

Gao Jianwu was ruthless in his heart, but what could he do, he clenched his fists tightly and walked out.

Li Yuanxing said again at this time: "It seems that he is full of food all day long, and he doesn't know what hunger is, nor does he know the suffering of the people." Starve him for a few days, and then arrange a job. If you don't work, you won't have food, and if you don't make good food, the food will be halved, and this king is not a righteous house, and he won't give people food and clothing for free. ”

What can Gao Jianwu do, the only thing he can do is curse in his heart.

Li Yuanxing put a green vegetable on the plate in his mouth, and then wiped his mouth with a handkerchief: "Pass on the words of this king, and the captured Goguryeo people will be treated equally, and their status will be judged by their talent." People who have the ability can naturally eat well and dress well. What does their previous identity have to do with my Datang? ”

"Yes!" Lu Maofeng just whispered.

He wanted to persuade, but he didn't dare to persuade.

He knew that Li Yuanxing's order alone would bring at least 200 impeachments.

Li Yuanxing motioned to take away his empty bowl and plate, and then handed over the dinner that had been prepared for Gao Jianwu to the royal ladies who had been arrested in Goguryeo.

Sitting on a soft chair, Li Yuanxing supported his chin with one hand.

The guards stood quietly on both sides, Li Yuanxing didn't speak, and they didn't talk much, so they sat quietly like this.

After half an hour, Li Yuanxing suddenly spoke: "This king heard that Jin Manqing's home is in Shicheng, and that Shicheng is less than a hundred miles away from Beisha City. Isn't that so? ”

Lu Maofeng knew this, scratched his head and didn't know how to answer.

"Pen and paper!" Li Yuanxingxin asked in vain, and he should not be mistaken.

The pen and paper were sent, and Li Yuanxing wrote on the paper: "Return home!" Then he handed it to Lu Maofeng: "Let the scribe draw up the seal." The meaning of this king is to let the Ministry of Rites arrange it, and this king will sacrifice the souls of the dead in the inner city. Whether it is the Taoist Gate or the Buddhist Gate, there must be someone with sufficient status to come, and the Ministry of Rites asks the imperial brother to show it. ”

After that, Li Yuanxing handed the note to Lu Maofeng: "To Princess Mingyue." ”

"Your Highness, did you bring the King of Goguryeo to Chang'an?"

"Let's do it!" Li Yuanxing didn't bother to say anything, he didn't pay attention to the king of Goguryeo, but sometimes he was just thinking about how to control these places in Beisha City, you must know that this place is not all Goguryeo people, or Buyeo people, at least half of them are also Han, because in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, this place was still Han.

Lu Maofeng retreated after receiving the order, but as soon as he went out, he immediately ran in again: "Your Highness, good news." Anshi City was already under the control of the whole city, and there were only about 1,000 Goguryeo people in the small part of the city lord's mansion, and General Niu ordered a truce, and he reported to see if he could capture people alive. If you attack now, you only need a fire to end the battle! ”

"Let Li Shangshu get an idea, I don't care if I live or die!" The life and death of Ezhi Wende is no longer important. At least for Li Yuanxing, a character who does not affect the situation of the war, whether he lives or dies, what matters. On the contrary, how to successfully conquer some cities without going to war is the important thing. (To be continued......)
