"Today, the Emperor Taishang mentioned Chai Lingwu ......"

"Father and mother, after some deliberation, thought it was very good. The Chai family is a relative of the emperor, and Ling Wu is also a great military achievement, both cultural and martial arts, and he is a talent......"

When Wu Cao heard this, the tall and heroic Chai Lingwu came to her mind.

If you compare carefully, in Luntai City, Chai Lingwu is indeed a first-class beautiful man.

And as my father said, he is not only a relative of the emperor, but also a member of both civil and martial arts.

If you marry him, it is also a good choice.

Thinking of this, Wu Cao Yingying said.

"Daughters listen to their fathers and mothers......"

"Good, good ......"

Seeing that Wu Cao was so sensible, Wu Shi Tong laughed very happily.

"Father, let's go and discuss your marriage with Ling Wu with the Emperor."

"Father, my daughter should go with you, my daughter has followed the teacher for many years, and for such a big matter, I naturally want to consult the teacher."

After listening to Wu Cao's words, Wu Shi Tong nodded with satisfaction and spoke.

"Yes, it's for my father's inconsiderate consideration, and I really have to ask His Royal Highness King Qin's opinion on this matter."

The warrior got up and led Wu Cao to the Governor's Mansion.

"The division commander, father and mother, intend to marry Wu Cao Xu to Chai Lingwu ......"

Li Gen's room.

Wu Cao's cheeks blushed and he spoke.

Hearing this, Li Gen smiled and nodded.

The Empress's fate is finally about to change.

Once she and Ling Wu tie the knot, the future will be completely different from the trajectory of history.

"Okay, Ling Wu is really good, aside from the identity of the emperor's relatives, he is also a talent, a person with both culture and martial arts."

"The division commander thinks that you and Ling Wu will definitely be happy together."

"At that time, the teacher will personally officiate the wedding for the two of you, both of you are students of the teacher, and you are both very important students of the teacher......"

"Ai Concubine, prepare a dowry for Wu Cao, the king's eldest disciple marries, and the king's heart must be sent to ......"

When Princess Qin heard this, she naturally smiled and agreed.

Li Gen's words made Wu Cao's eyes redden.

It turned out that he was so important in the heart of the division commander.

The division commander actually wanted to buy a dowry for himself.

……

Chai Lingwu learned that Wu Cao had agreed to this marriage, and he would wake up laughing at night when he dreamed.

Wu Cao is not just the dean's eldest disciple.

And it is recognized as the first beautiful girl in Luntai City.

Thinking that the beauty was about to fall into his arms, Chai Lingwu was so excited!

It's simply not wanted.

Before the Zhengyuan Festival.

Li Gen and Wu Shi Tong held a grand wedding for Chai Lingwu and Wu Cao.

The liveliness of the wedding is no less than the grand occasion of Changle and Fang Yiai's wedding.

Li Gen's preference for Wu Cao and Chai Lingwu can be seen from this.

In a new house in Chai House.

A couple sit side by side.

One is excited.

One is anticipation.

"Lady, let's go to the kang......"

"Hmmm......"

After listening to Chai Lingwu's words, Wu Cao's voice could only be heard by himself.

Under Chai Lingwu's active attack, Wu Cao finally experienced many of the tastes that Changle had said......

Except that there was a little bit of pain at the beginning.

The further you go, the more wonderful it becomes.

Wonderful.........

As a result, from being passively beaten to actively attacking.

Wu Cao has experienced the biggest transformation and change in his life.

Because of the Zhengyuan Festival, the college has been closed.

The two of them can rest assured that they can stay up all night.

Don't worry, go to the academy with dark circles under your eyes to teach the children.

………

Liaodong City!

At this time, Liaodong was a county seat in Goguryeo, and it was also a strategic place, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The Tang army led by the crown prince Li Chengqian had been confronting the army of Goguryeo in Liaodong for three months.

Both sides suffered casualties, but the casualties of the Tang army were significantly greater.

Inside the huge camp tent, Li Chengqian's face was pale.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Hou Junji, Zhang Liang and others all had heavy faces.

No one expected that this big war had been fought for more than three months.

The casualties of the army have exceeded 30,000, and now, even Liaodong has not been taken.

Taking Liaodong will be able to conquer the most solid defense line of Goguryeo, which will play a pivotal role in the victory or defeat of the entire battle.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, now that the heavy snow is closing the mountain, our army is not enough food and grass to support it for ten days, it is better to retreat for the time being, and wait for the supply of grain and grass to be sufficient. After the beginning of spring, it is not too late to attack Liaodong again! ”

General Zhang Liang's words made Li Chengqian clench his fists hard.

Withdrawal?

After the withdrawal of troops, the territory that was finally won will once again belong to Goguryeo.

Wait until the beginning of spring, and then attack Liaodong?

It has been half a year since he led the army to leave Chang'an City.

For such a long time, let alone flattening Goguryeo, even a small Liaodong has not been taken.

Thinking of his bold words in front of his father, Li Chengqian couldn't wait to go into the hole immediately.

"We can't withdraw our troops, we can't withdraw our troops!"

Li Chengqian almost roared and said.

"It's hard to hit the city of Liaodong, how can you withdraw the army lightly?"

"Within ten days, no matter what the cost is, you must take Liaodong City."

"Hou Junji, Zhang Liang, the two generals listen to the order!"

"Immediately organize the soldiers and launch an attack in the middle of the night...... The main palace will take the lead tonight......"

In the face of the military order of the crown prince Li Chengqian, Zhang Liang had to bow down and receive the order.

"Your Highness, no...... You must not, kill the enemy online......"

The eldest grandson Wuji was about to cry.

Li Chengqian is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, the eldest son of His Majesty and the Empress.

If there is any damage to him, let's not talk about the major events of Conglong in the future.

After returning to Chang'an City, all of them, the accompanying generals and important ministers, all had unshirkable responsibilities.

"Uncle, don't say it again, since King Qin can go into battle to kill the enemy, how can this palace shrink in this big military camp?"

Li Chengqian's voice landed, and the general instantly lifted his spirits.

King Qin, His Royal Highness King Qin's fierce achievements, have long been spread throughout the Tang Dynasty.

How can there be such a big gap between people and people?

They are also battle-hardened generals, and now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also full of enthusiasm.

Why can't we win a battle that will bring you back to your heart?

"Soldiers, this palace has led the soldiers to crusade against Goguryeo for half a year."

"Ahead is Liaodong City, and in order to stop our army, Goguryeo built the Great Wall outside Liaodong City."

"It's winter right now, and the heavy snow is covering the mountains, so it's not a secret, our army is already seriously short of food and grass, if you can't take Liaodong City tonight."

"This palace and the soldiers, even if we don't die under the spears and arrows of the enemy, because the food and grass cannot be supplied, we will starve to death......

"Soldiers, you are all heroes of the Tang Dynasty......"

"The heroes of Datang would rather die on the battlefield than retreat half a step......"

"Take Liaodong City and level Goguryeo!"

At the critical moment, Li Chengqian staged a good show of putting him to death and then being reborn.

He said that there were ten days of food and grass left, but he said that he had run out of food.

Horizontal and vertical are all one death.

They are all hot-blooded men, killed on the battlefield, and the horse leather shroud is the best destination.

If this battle is won by a big margin, the problem of grain and grass will be solved.

"Take Liaodong City and level Goguryeo!"

"Take Liaodong City and level Goguryeo!"

The soldiers shouted with spears in their hands, raising their arms.

A bright smile appeared on Li Chengqian's face.

Morale has risen, and now it's up to us to see how this battle will end.

"Soldiers, rush with the palace......"

Li Chengqian took the lead.

Take the lead in rushing to Liaodong City.

Frightened, Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong hurriedly followed left and right.

"Rush...... Rush ......"

The Tang Dynasty soldiers have no seeds.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so desperate, so why not let the soldiers die!

The roaring army went straight to Liaodong City.

Because it was in the middle of the night, despite the Goguryeo defense army, there were people monitoring every move of the Tang army day and night.

The attack in the middle of the night still made the Goguryeo army panic in an instant.

The morale of the Tang army was at its peak, and the enemy army counterattacked in a panic.

When Li Chengqian was the first to climb over the Great Wall built by Goguryeo in Liaodong City.

The Tang army brigade soon crossed the Great Wall in unison.

"Kill...... Kill...... Kill ......"

Li Chengqian drew his sword, and the gaze in his eyes was firm.

At this moment, he seemed to be able to feel the heart of King Qin on the battlefield at that time.

"Kill...... Kill...... Kill ......"

More than 100,000 troops roared in unison, and the sound was enough to shake the earth.

In this battle, the Tang Dynasty soldiers who were born after being put to death showed momentum and majesty.

Before dawn, the army successfully took Liaodong City.

Sure enough, in Liaodong City, there is plenty of grain and grass.

In order to stop the Tang army, Goguryeo prepared enough grain and grass in Liaodong.

I never thought that I would make a wedding dress for the Tang Dynasty soldiers.

After three days of rest, the army divided into two routes.

Li Chengqian and Hou Junji led the army all the way to Baiyan City.

Zhang Liang and the eldest grandson Wuji led the team to the southeast.

The two sides agreed to meet at the Yalu River.

In the first battle of Baekyanseong, there was almost no resistance from the Goguryeo army.

It seems that they have transferred all the main forces of the army to Liaodong City.

Over the Qianheng Mountain, Daxing City is far away.

Li Chengqian held clairvoyance in his hand and looked into the distance.

"General Hou, this Daxing City is an important town in Goguryeo, and the number of defenders must be considerable."

"Taking advantage of the news that our army has broken Liaodong City now, it has not reached Daxing City, so it is better for us to attack this city late at night."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise, and the last general thinks it is very good."

Hou Junji clasped his fists and saluted.

That night, the Tang army attacked Daxing City, and the battle was a great victory, and the damage of our army was negligible.

In Daxing City, the high-spirited Li Chengqian rewarded the army.

After three days, move on.

Before arriving at the Yalu River, the army led by General Zhang Liang and the eldest grandson Wuji successfully converged with the crown prince Li Chengqian.

Knowing that they had also won a great victory all the way, Li Chengqian could not hide his joy.

Speaking of the Yalu River, I have to talk about the history and origin of the Yalu River.

The Yalu River was known as the water in ancient times. In the Han Dynasty, it was called Mazi Shui, and in the Sui and Tang dynasties, it was the Datong River. The name of the Yalu River was officially established in the Tang Dynasty.

It is said that it is named because the color of the river resembles the color of a duck's head.

Second, because there are two tributaries of the Yajiang River and the Green River in the upstream area, they are combined into one and called the Yalu River.

Li Chengqian held clairvoyance in his hand and raised his eyes to look away.

"Generals, across the Yalu River, there is a Goguryeo military camp tent."

"It seems that they are also ready, in case Liaodong City is lost."

Li Chengqian's voice landed.

All the generals raised their clairvoyants in their hands in unison.

Sure enough, there were not only large military tents on the opposite side, but also soldiers patrolling on the other side of the river.

In the huge camp tent, Li Chengqian and the generals discussed carefully.

If we forcibly cross the river, the archers on the opposite side will inevitably inflict a large number of casualties on our army.

In the end, it was decided to send 3,000 soldiers, take ships, and arrive at the opposite shore late at night.

If you can do it quietly and not be discovered by the enemy, you can directly burn down the company camp.

It's also beautiful.

That night, the northwest wind blew strongly.

Three thousand soldiers boarded the ship at night.

Ride the wind down and go straight to the other side.

This section of the river is not very wide, and the distance converted into later generations is only about 500 meters.

With the help of the wind, 3,000 soldiers soon arrived on the opposite bank.

The wind and waves were strong, and it was late at night. The soldiers who arrived at the shore were not discovered by the patrolling Goguryeo soldiers.

The soldiers were armed with horizontal knives and quietly landed on the shore, after finishing off the patrolling soldiers one by one.

The killing mode in the camp was activated.

When a piece of fire ignited on the opposite bank.

Li Chengqian's excitement was beyond words.

"Soldiers, board the ship with the main palace, the vanguard army has completed their mission!"

When the army arrived on the opposite bank, the bank was already full of blood.

This was the most beautiful victory of the Tang army in the entire war, and the enemy army was annihilated without a single casualty.

The first battle of the Yalu River also completely broke through the Goguryeo army, the last barrier that thought it was solid.

The army was on the riverside overnight and began to disperse north and south to annihilate the enemy.

Because of the entire Yalu River, there are patrol soldiers not only here.

Before dawn, the Tang army annihilated the enemy, more than 50,000 people.

There is no doubt that there is not much left of the real main force of Goguryeo.

In the huge tent, Li Chengqian summoned all the soldiers again in high spirits.

After some deliberation, it was decided that General Zhang Liang and the eldest grandson Wuji would lead the army and continue to the southeast.

Li Chengqian and Hou Junji led their troops and went straight to Fuyu City.

The two sides agreed to finally reunite in Pyongyang.

After conquering Buyeo City, only one Shouyi City remained in front of Pyongyang City.

Two battles, almost effortlessly.

The Tang army's momentum of destroying the ancient and decaying began to take shape after conquering Liaodong City, and in the battle of the Yalu River, the army completely had a kind of morale.

The army led by General Zhang Liang and the eldest grandson Wuji also conquered all the way.

Once again, the army joined forces in the city of Pyongyang.

After resting for three days, Li Chengqian gave an order.

The Tang army, continuing to attack the city of Pyongyang in the middle of the night.

The city walls of Pyongyang are five meters high.

In addition to the casualties in the siege strategy, when the Tang army soldiers entered the city, open the gate of Pyongyang.

This war is already doomed.

"Congratulations to Your Highness, congratulations to Your Highness!"

In the city of Pyongyang, in a luxurious palace.

Li Chengqian sat upright and accepted the congratulations of all the officers and men.

In this situation, Li Chengqian cried with joy.

The only regret is that the king of Goguryeo has not been seen so far.

Counting the days, it has been eight months since he left Chang'an City on July 16, the ninth year of Zhenguan.

Even the Zhengyuan Festival and Shangyuan Day in the tenth year of Zhenguan, Li Chengqian and the soldiers spent it on the battlefield.

In the past eight months, Li Chengqian's mental character has undergone a great change.

He profoundly understood how difficult it was for King Qin to break through Tuguhun and completely annihilate the Persian and Great Food coalition armies.

After leading a soldier himself, Li Chengqian knew very well that fighting a war was really not just a casual talk.

If it weren't for the courage of General Zhang Liang and General Hou Junji, if it weren't for his uncle Eldest Sun Wuji's daily advice.

Li Chengqian understood that it was impossible to reach the city of Pyongyang in this battle.

He led an army of 200,000, a full army of 200,000.

If you lead 15,000 soldiers like King Qin?

Impossible, simply impossible!

Deep down in his heart, Li Chengqian admitted for the first time that he was indeed inferior to King Qin.

But so what? In this battle, he won after all, he is still the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and the position of the prince will be even more solid.

"All the soldiers, today's victory, are the credit of the soldiers, after the triumphant return of the army to Chang'an City, the palace will truthfully start the father, the father will definitely reward the soldiers!"

"Come, soldiers, raise the wine bottle!"

"Drink win, drink win, drink win!"

Li Chengqian's voice landed, and all the soldiers raised their wine bottles one after another.

"Drink win, drink win, drink win!"

The excited eldest grandson Wuji, splashed ink with a pen and began to write a special book.

I can't hate to put the crown prince Li Chengqian, to write to the heavens and the earth, omnipotent.

This is the good news sent to Chang'an City, as the uncle of the crown prince Li Chengqian, the eldest grandson Wuji knows that with the strong rise of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, he is now tied to the same boat as Chengqian.

Once the ship capsizes, it will be an unthinkable situation.

Therefore, the eldest grandson Wuji, even if he fights for his life, he must not watch this ship capsize.

After Li Chengqian read the good news written by his uncle, his face was full of joy.

There is no doubt that Li Chengqian's contribution is the greatest in the good news.

The great victory over Goguryeo was entirely the result of Li Chengqian's use of soldiers like a god and his leading example.

The 50,000 fallen soldiers were completely ignored by the eldest grandson Wuji, and on the good news, there was no mention of the fallen soldiers at all.

"Report, the king of Goguryeo is dressed in the clothes of the people, mixed among the people, and has been discovered by our army."

"Good!"

Li Chengqian was overjoyed when he heard this, and escorting the king of Goguryeo back to Chang'an City was a thing that could make his father happy.

"Take care of the king of Goguryeo, except for the soldiers who stay behind, and prepare the army to return to the court."

Li Chengqian seemed to have seen the scene of the triumphant return of the army, and the father and mother led hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city to greet each other.

"Your Highness, at this time, you might as well go all out and take down the Baekje ......"

Listening to General Zhang Liang's recital, Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, and instantly came to his senses.

"What General Zhang said is very true, what do the generals think?"

"The last general will obey the instructions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

All the generals bowed in unison and saluted.

"Someone ...... coming"

"Expedite the good news for 800 miles and send it to Chang'an City......"

"If my father asks, I will say that this palace led a large army, for my father, and went to attack Baekje for the Tang Dynasty......"

The messenger received the good news and respectfully took the order and left.

Li Chengqian personally led two generals, Zhang Liang and Hou Junji, led 50,000 elite soldiers and went straight to Baekje.

The eldest grandson Wuji led an army of 100,000 to defend the city of Pyongyang.

Compared with Goguryeo, Baekje is just a land of projectiles, with an army of 50,000, which is already very worthy of them.

To the south of Baekje is the kingdom of Silla.

Silla was a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty and has been subjected to the deception of Baekje in recent years.

The Silla envoy once wrote to Li Shimin, the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, for this purpose, and the crown prince Li Chengqian was also very clear about this matter.

So when General Zhang Liang proposed to attack Baekje, Li Chengqian was instantly extremely excited.

I got carried away and forgot that not far from Pyongyang City, there was a country called Baekje.

…………

Chang'an City in early summer is full of vitality and vitality.

After a winter's hard work, the cement factory in Chang'an City has produced a large amount of cement.

Throughout the spring, around Chang'an City and inside the city, the dormitory cement pavement was busy.

The cement pavement from the Western Regions to Chang'an City has been built to Chang'an City.

This made Li Shimin happy and directly carnival in the city.

Recently, Li Shimin's only concern was the situation of the 200,000-strong army led by Li Chengqian to attack Goguryeo.

It stands to reason that it has been more than eight months since the expedition, and even if it is climbing, it is time to climb back.

To this day, the army is still unheard.

How can Li Shimin not be worried.

Fortunately, after Li Shimin asked Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng to divination, the two insisted that although the prince's trip was turbulent, a big victory could be expected!

The divination hexagrams of Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng made Li Shimin feel somewhat comforted.

Although Empress Changsun had never worried about Cheng Qian on the surface, Li Shimin knew that she had secretly cried many times in the middle of the night.

Because the palace maid of the Lizheng Palace saw it with her own eyes, Li Shimin heard this, and his heart was also like a knife.

In the Hall of Xiande, just when Li Shimin was about to speak, he had something to do and retreated from the court.

To the west of the city, there were deafening cheers.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

What's wrong with this?

Li Shimin suddenly thought of a possibility.

Even the eldest grandson queen in the Lizheng Hall hurriedly walked outside the hall.

A pair of beautiful eyes went straight to the west of Chang'an City.

"Good news, good news, good news......"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the Great Destruction of Goguryeo, the King of Goguryeo, has been captured, and will be escorted back to Chang'an City in the near future!"

"Good news, good news, good news......"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the ...... of Goguryeo"

The sound came from the Suzaku Gate, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves was gradually audible.

Rolling hot tears slid down the cheeks of the eldest grandson empress.

She took out her handkerchief, quickly wiped away her tears, and walked towards the Lizheng Hall with a smile.

Li Shimin led hundreds of civil and military officials to the outside of the Xiande Palace.

"Good news, good news, good news......"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the ...... of Goguryeo"

The messenger's voice grew closer and clearer.

At this time, the sun was rising in the east, and a bright smile appeared on Li Shimin's face.

Cheng Qianwu'er, sure enough, did not disappoint his father.

Among Lao Tzu's sons, there is finally another one who can fight.

The messenger soldiers saw His Majesty leading hundreds of civil and military officials, all in front of the Hall of Virtue.

Immediately turn over and dismount, and after respectfully saluting, present the good news.

Li Shimin happily opened the good news, the familiar handwriting, the familiar font, at first glance, it was from the hand of the eldest grandson Wuji.

Li Shimin read the good news in one breath.

"Spread my word, the prince won a great victory, and the whole country celebrated three days together......"

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Congratulations to Your Highness!"

The ministers congratulated one after another.

Whether it is the prince's side or the King of Qin's side.

Everyone is sincerely congratulating, on the battlefield that is related to the fortunes of the country.

Every soldier who participated in the war deserves respect.

What's more, Li Chengqian is in the capacity of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, replacing His Majesty, and driving the expedition in person.

In this battle, Li Shimin ordered the whole country to celebrate for three days, which is also human nature and nothing to blame.

"Messenger, the prince leads the army, when will he return in triumph?"

"Back to Your Majesty's words, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered the eldest Sun Shangshu to sit in Pyongyang City, and His Royal Highness, accompanied by General Zhang Liang and General Hou Junji, led 50,000 elite soldiers to attack Baekje and ......"

"Oh......"

When Li Shimin heard this, his expression instantly became exciting.

Li Chengqian's move really came as a surprise to Li Shimin.

After learning that it was General Zhang Liang's suggestion, Li Shimin smiled and nodded.

Although Baekje is a small country, if Cheng Qian takes Baekje in one go.

This expedition was indeed very successful.

"I'm very relieved, I'm very relieved......"

"Spread my will, today I will feast on civil and military officials in the Hall of Virtue......"
