Li Yong couldn't help but have a black line on his face when he heard this, he never expected Cheng Yanjin and them to think like this, Cheng Yanjin patted Li Yong's shoulder and smiled.

"You boy! Rest assured! The saints know it, and they praise you! So, what are you worried about? ”

"I'm not worried about anything, what can I worry about?"

Li Yong spread his hands heartlessly, in fact, Li Yong was a little weak-hearted, after all, all this was planned by him, and now Princess Silla is very grateful to him, washing and cooking for him, so let go of the princess's dignity, if one day, Princess Silla finds out that all this is his plan, what will happen? How grateful Princess Silla is to him now, when the time comes, how much Princess Silla hates him, although he is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he will not be afraid of a princess of Silla, but the problem is that he has a conscience! But these words can't be said to Cheng Yanjin, and even if they are said, they are in vain, Cheng Yanjin, an old man, can't understand it, riding a horse on the street, Li Yong looked around and sighed.

"This is not the same as the Liaodong in my heart! When I was in Chang'an, the news of the Eastern Expedition spread, whether it was the ministers of the court, or the people of the market, all of them were shocked, and there were many discussions, I thought that the people of Liaodong would be very panicked, but I didn't expect that the army drove into Pingzhou, but it was welcomed by the middle road, and the people of Liaodong were not only panicked, but also wanted to go east to the court, which was really unexpected! ”

Cheng Yanjin laughed.

"That shows that the people of Liaodong are all bloody men and are not afraid of war!"

Xu Shiji also slowly stepped forward and explained.

"The people of the Central Plains know that Goguryeo is because of the three Eastern Crusades of the former Sui Dynasty that impressed them, and Goguryeo has been established for hundreds of years, and in these hundreds of years, Liaodong does not know how many battles have taken place and how much blood has been shed, but the people of the Central Plains have forgotten, because it is just a conversation for the people of the Central Plains, but the people of Liaodong can't forget it, because for them, it is all bitter hatred! In addition, the people in Liaodong are fierce, so the people here are happy when the imperial court goes east, and they can't wait to go with the army to kill hard! ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Therefore, the sage's crusade is right, Goguryeo will not be destroyed, and it will eventually become a great disaster!"

Xu Shiji groaned.

"Goguryeo has been entrenched for hundreds of years, and it is not difficult to defeat Goguryeo, but it is difficult to destroy Goguryeo!"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"It's all here anyway, how do you know if you don't try?"

Cheng Yanjin shouted when he heard it.

"Li Yong, this kid is right, he is here, how can Goguryeo be embarrassed to return to his teacher?"

Xu Shiji groaned.

"What a pity! I don't know what happened to Silla now, but it would be nice if Silla hadn't been destroyed and still had the strength to fight. ”

Cheng Biting Jin shouted.

"Goguryeo knows that the army is going on the expedition, and it has long been guarded like an iron bucket, how can it find out the news?"

Li Yong laughed and said nothing, because someone next to him trotted over.

"The little one has seen the grandfather, and the little one has been waiting for the grandfather in Pingzhou City for a long time!"

Li Yong turned over and dismounted and helped the man up, patted him on the shoulder, and said with emotion.

"You've all worked hard!"

"It's not hard, it's not hard, this is what a small one should do, grandpa, this is a letter from the big shopkeeper, please take a look!"

Li Yong took the letter, opened it, and couldn't help laughing, Cheng Yanjin stretched his neck and asked curiously.

"Whose letter is this? What's written on it? ”

Li Yong said with a smile, Li Yong naturally wouldn't tell them that he had the most terrifying intelligence organization in the Tang Dynasty, right?

"Didn't I have a caravan to Goguryeo before? Although they returned to the Tang Dynasty, they also left a lot of hidden piles, this is the letter they sent, as the so-called knowing each other and knowing oneself, can not be defeated in a hundred battles! ”

Xu Shiji's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he smiled thoughtfully.

"So you had a plan!"

Cheng Yanjin hurriedly asked.

"What is the situation in Silla now? Is it written in the letter? ”

"Let's finish drinking first!"

Li Yong said with a smile, Liaodong is a bitter cold place, even if Pingzhou is a big city in Liaodong, but it is not prosperous, and it can't be compared with the Central Plains and Jiangnan at all, so whether it is ingredients or cooking skills, it is far inferior to the Central Plains and Jiangnan, so if this banquet is placed in Chang'an, it is really nothing, but Li Yong They eat with relish, and they all say that if they haven't seen a woman for a few years, they will feel that their eyebrows are clear, and they will feel the same when they eat and put it. The government and the opposition talked a lot, I don't know how many people opposed the army, but he insisted on going out for his dream, in fact, he was also a little depressed, but when he really arrived in Liaodong, he saw that the people of Liaodong were happy to go to the army, and the depression in his heart was swept away, who did the Eastern Expedition have the greatest impact on? Of course, it is the people of Liaodong, so what Li Er values most is the views of the people of Liaodong, as for the people of the Central Plains or Jiangnan, it doesn't matter much, because they are all standing and talking without backache, because they are happy, so Li Er drank a few more glasses, but he didn't have any drunkenness, but was very sober, standing in front of the map, his eyes were very bright.

"I don't know what happened to Goguryeo and Silla, now?"

Li Er shook his head and asked helplessly.

"Now that Liaodong has already been rumored, it is difficult for scouts to go deeper, and it is difficult to know the situation of Goguryeo and Silla!"

The eldest grandson Wuji groaned, but Yu Chigong said in a very brainless deep voice.

"Sage, whatever the situation of Goguryeo and Silla, just call him and know!"

The other generals also echoed.

"That's it, that's it, no matter what Goguryeo does, just hit it!"

Cheng Yanjin immediately shouted.

"Who said it was hard to know what was going on in Goguryeo and Silla?"

The eyes of the eldest grandson Wuji, Yu Chigong and others all fell on Cheng Yanjin's body, and their eyes were full of shock, how could Cheng Yanjin have a way? Cheng Yanjin actually has a brain? Li Er asked in surprise.

"Oh? Is there any way to know the situation in Goguryeo? ”

Cheng Biting Jin said triumphantly.

"Of course the old minister has a way!"

The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Chigong, Li Xiaogong and others looked at Cheng Yanjin with a shocked face, as if they had reacquainted with Cheng Yanjin, why did Cheng Yanjin become so smart? Li Er couldn't help but be happy when he heard it.

"Zhijie, what can you do not say quickly? If it works, there will be a reward! ”

Cheng Biting Jin said triumphantly.

"Sage, of course the minister's method is effective, the minister's method is to ask Li Yong!"

Ask Li Yong? The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Chigong and others were slightly stunned when they heard this, and then they couldn't cry or laugh, what is this method called? Cheng Biting Jin shouted.

"Why are you looking at me like that? My method will definitely work! ”

Li Er's heart moved, and he turned his head and asked.

"Li Yong, you kid, do you know?"

If Cheng Yanjin knew about Goguryeo and Silla, no one believed it, but if Li Yong knew, then everyone was looking forward to it.

"Lu Guogong is right, the minister does know a little about the situation in Goguryeo and Silla, and the caravan sent to Goguryeo by the minister before has been ambushed, but he can think of sending a little news."

Li Yong said with a smile, it turned out that Li Yong really knew the situation in Goguryeo, and the eldest grandson Wuji and others were very excited in their hearts, which was much stronger than a black eye, Cheng Yanjin immediately shouted.

"How? What do you think? I'll just say I have a way, right? You still don't believe me? ”

Wei Chigong said speechlessly.

"You old thing, your skin is really getting thicker!"

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard it, even if Cheng Yanjin didn't say it, since Li Yong knew about the situation in Goguryeo, how could he not say it? Li Er was in a good mood and said with a smile.

"You kid is very thoughtful, don't you say quickly, what is the situation between Goguryeo and Silla now?"

Li Yong groaned.

"In fact, Goguryeo had long known the news of the sage's personal conquest, and Gao Jianwu and his ministers were very shocked when they heard the news of the sage's personal conquest, but later they heard that the sage only brought 150,000 soldiers and horses, and they calmed down again!"

Calmed down? Li Er couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this, he still thought that he could make Goguryeo tremble as if he were facing a great enemy, but he didn't expect Goguryeo to be very calm? This simply doesn't put him, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, in his eyes, thinking that he Li Er has really never suffered such humiliation in his life! Even if Jieli Khan hit the bank of the Weishui River back then, he didn't dare to take him Li Er in his eyes like this, Li Er snorted coldly.

"Knowing that a certain royal driver is pro-conquest, Goguryeo is still so calm, this is not to take a certain in his eyes!"

Wei Chigong shouted dissatisfiedly.

"Wow, those fools of Goguryeo dare to despise our Tang soldiers so much, it's really unreasonable, we must kill them upside down, and let Gao Jianwu's old man see how powerful our Tang soldiers are!"

Xu Shiji arched his hand and smiled.

"The sage is angry, the Goguryeo monarchs and ministers are just frogs at the bottom of the well, the three eastern crusades of the former Sui raised millions of soldiers, but this time the sage drove the expedition but only brought 150,000 soldiers and horses, so they didn't take it to heart, this is a good thing, the so-called arrogant soldiers will be defeated!"

Li Er nodded.

"Mao Gong is right, just say so, you must go with Mao Gong on the expedition, you are not in good health, you don't need to lead the troops into battle, it is good that you can give ideas to a certain person when you follow a certain side!"

Xu Shiji hurriedly said.

"The minister will bow down and die!"

Li Er asked.

"Li Yong, how is Silla? Can Goguryeo have troops and horses transferred? ”

Li Yong bowed slightly.

"Sage, Yuangai Suwen has led a large army to attack Jincheng, the royal city of Silla, after knowing the news of the sage's personal expedition, Gao Jianwu and the ministers discussed, and did not order Yuangai Suwen to return to Liaodong, but ordered Yuangai Suwen to quickly attack and destroy Silla."

Cheng Yanjin shouted when he heard it.

"What? Gao Jianwu did not order Yuangai Suwen to lead the army back to help, but instead ordered Yuangai Suwen to quickly attack and destroy Silla? How unreasonable! Outrageous! ”

Li Er couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.

"Yes, yes! He Gao Jianwu is going to give Liaodong to a certain person! If you don't take it, won't you live up to Gao Jianwu's good intentions? ”

Wei Chigong said loudly.

"Yes, didn't he Gao Jianwu not let Yuangai Suwen's 200,000 army return to Liaodong? Wait until we defeat Liaodong, and see him let the 200,000 troops who will not let Yuan Gai Suwen return to Liaodong! ”

Li Er said in a deep voice.

"The army rested for three days, recuperated, and went straight to Liaodong City, you all listened to a certain person, don't let Gao Jianwu look down on our Tang Dynasty soldiers!"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Gao Jianwu didn't know that our 100,000 Tang soldiers were comparable to the million former Sui army, so I just gave him a surprise!"

Surprise? If the army is like a bamboo, then Gao Jianwu's face must be very good-looking, and when he thinks of this, Li Er can't help but look forward to it.

"What I'm saying is that I must give Gao Jianwu a big surprise!"

Li Er was full of ambition, the reason why Li Er was full of ambition was because he was very confident in his ability to lead the troops and the combat strength of his soldiers, on the other hand, because he also had cannons, muskets and other battlefield weapons, especially artillery, which was a siege weapon, and it would definitely be able to give Gao Jianwu a big surprise when he returned to the Shenji Camp, his clothes had been washed and dried, and the bedroom was also very tidy.

"Oh, the princess hasn't left yet?"

Jin Shengman almost choked to death by the tea when he heard this, and glared at Li Yongdao.

"I've been washing your clothes here for half a day, can't you rest here for a while? You drove me away as soon as the matter was done, you have too no conscience, right? ”

Li Yong hurriedly waved his hand and said.

"No, no, I didn't mean that, you can rest as long as you want, I don't mean to drive you away!"

Jin Shengman smiled when he heard this.

"You can really rest as long as you want?"

Li Yong coughed dryly.

"After all, it's in the barracks, so it's not good to stay for a long time?"

"Don't worry, you, wait until I'm done drinking tea and leave, otherwise it's a pity that this cup of good tea, I always feel that your tea here seems to be more fragrant!"

Jin Shengman enjoyed the tea ceremony very much, nonsense, this tea is the best tea, he and Changle kept it for themselves, not even the emperor and the queen!

"Forget it, I'll give you a small can! This tea is very precious! ”

Li Yong said with a smile, Jin Shengman was not polite, and said in surprise.

"Then I'll thank you!"

"By the way, there's already news of Silla."

Li Yong said, Jin Shengman listened and hurriedly said.

"How's Silla doing now?"

"The Goguryeo army has approached Jinseong, and the queen is still staying in Jinseong."

Li Yong said, Jin Shengman felt both relieved and nervous in his heart when he heard this, and he was relieved because the Goguryeo army was approaching Jincheng, which means that Jincheng had not yet fallen, and Silla had not yet perished, and the nervous reason was that the Goguryeo army was approaching Jincheng, and Jincheng could be broken at any time, and he didn't know how long Jincheng could hold out, Jin Shengman raised his head and asked.

"Jungong, now Goguryeo should have known the news of the emperor's personal conquest, right? Then the king of Goguryeo will definitely order Yuangai Suwen to return to Liaodong, right? ”

Li Yong shook his head slightly.

"No, Gao Jianwu did not order Yuangai Suwen to lead the army back to Liaodong, but ordered Yuangai Suwen to quickly attack and destroy Silla, he didn't want to give up the fat on his lips!"
