Chapter 604: Rebel Ministers and Thieves

The generals were stunned and stunned, how could they not have imagined that such an earth-shattering change would occur in Goguryeo, and the dignified generation of Goguryeo King Gao Jianwu would die like this? This is really too sudden, everyone was still full of hatred for Gao Jianwu before, after all, Yuangai Suwen led the army to invade their Silla and must have been at the behest of Gao Jianwu, but now, they suddenly felt that Gao Jianwu was a little pitiful, and was forced to death by Yuangai Suwen's mutiny, and killed the people in the royal family cleanly, counting, Gao Jianwu is the most ruthless person who was pitted by Yuangai Suwen, think about Gao Jianwu was originally his king, although the country is not considered to be peaceful in the four seas, but it is still peaceful, what is the result? Just because he was fooled by Yuangai Suwen to launch a large army to the east, he finally lost the country and lost his life, Park In-ki sighed.

"Tang Jun is really powerful! This time, not only did he defeat the army of the twenty-five kings of Goguryeo, but even Gao Jianwu was killed, and Goguryeo is really a scene of death now! ”

The mutiny and murder of the monarch were chaotic, and it was indeed like a harbinger of the country's defeat, but thinking of Yuangai Suwen's monopoly on power, everyone couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in their hearts, Gao Jianwu was not terrible, it was Yuangai Suwen who was terrible!

"Although the Tang army defeated the Goguryeo army of 250,000, it was not led by Yuangai Suwen after all, and now it is led by Yuangai Suwen, and it is not so easy for the Tang army to defeat the Goguryeo army!"

A general groaned, and Park In-ki nodded.

"Indeed, if Yuangai Suwen leads the army, it will definitely not be easy for the Tang army to defeat the Goguryeo army and capture Pyongyang City, no matter who wins or loses between the Tang army and the Goguryeo army, this battle will definitely be a stalemate, and this is also our opportunity to take the opportunity to capture more cities! Even if Yuangai Suwen finally defeated the Tang army, he would mutiny and kill the king, and Goguryeo would inevitably be in turmoil. ”

Everyone was immediately excited when they heard this, and this feeling of hiding behind and making a lot of money was really refreshing.

"What the general said is, let's hurry up and storm the city! As long as we take the city, it will be our Silla! ”

A group of generals said in unison, if Yuangai Suwen finally repelled the Tang army, then Goguryeo is also troubled internally and externally, the chaos continues, and it is impossible to recapture the city, if the Tang army finally captures Pyongyang City, Goguryeo will also perish, then whoever shoots the city will naturally be who's, the generals take it for granted, the city they worked so hard to fight is of course theirs, Park In-ki ordered.

"I also have to send someone to send this news to Jincheng as soon as possible, so that the king can be prepared, if the Tang army really captures Pyongyang City, then the king may have to go to Pyongyang City in person to express his gratitude to the Tang Emperor."

The king personally went to Pyongyang City to see the Tang Emperor, which had a sense of audience, so the generals were also a little unhappy, but after all, it was the Tang Dynasty who sent troops to save their Silla, so the king went to Pyongyang City to personally express his gratitude to the Tang Emperor and said that in the past, Park In-ki said a little complicated.

"In the past, although our Silla paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty, in fact, we still watched and helped each other with the Tang Dynasty, but if the Tang Dynasty attacked Goguryeo and occupied Goguryeo, it means that our Silla will border the Tang Dynasty, but it will be different from before!"

The generals couldn't help but be silent when they heard this, although they wanted to say something about the Tang Dynasty and they were not afraid of the Tang Dynasty, but they couldn't say it at all, even if they bragged, because the Tang Army's combat power was too strong, although they had not seen it with their own eyes, let alone fought with the Tang Army, but the Tang Army only had more than 100,000 soldiers and horses but they beat Goguryeo without the power to fight back, how terrible this combat power is can be imagined, they Silla can't even beat Goguryeo, let alone face the Tang Army, if they Silla and Tang Tang have a dispute in the future, so how to resist? Their Silla has always been a subject country of the Tang Dynasty, and they have always been deferential to the Tang Dynasty, so the Tang Dynasty should not have a dispute with their Silla, right? They now also understand why if the Tang army broke through Pyongyang City, why the king must go to Pyongyang City in person, not only the generals of Silla are fighting the idea of dividing Goguryeo, but also some people are also fighting the idea of carving up Goguryeo, that is, Baekje, when the Goguryeo army attacked Silla, Baekje was ready to move, planning to carve up Silla with Goguryeo, but as a result, the Tang Emperor sent troops to the east, which made Silla relieved again, and the Baekje monarchs had to temporarily give up this heartwarming idea, Paying close attention to the war between the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo, knowing that the Tang Dynasty only sent more than 100,000 troops, they were still a little disappointed, what they expected most was that Goguryeo and the Tang Dynasty were inseparable and then both lost, Goguryeo became weak, of course, it would be better if they could take the opportunity to cut a piece of meat on Goguryeo, however, they never thought that Goguryeo would lose, after all, the former Sui million-dollar army was repulsed by Goguryeo, but the result was greatly unexpected by the Baekje monarchs and ministers, and even said that they were all stunned, The Tang army turned out to be like a bamboo all the way, and the loss of Liaodong was called a fast, they even wondered if the Goguryeo people deliberately lost and wanted to be the Tang Dynasty, after all, I heard that the Tang Dynasty is getting richer and richer, and now, the Goguryeo army is defeated, Yuangai Suwen mutinied, and forced Gao Jianwu to die, and the news that the Goguryeo royal family was killed cleanly, the Baekje monarchs and ministers were even more confused, and the Baekje King Fuyuzhang listened to it with disdain.

"Gao Jianwu has always been pretentious, but he didn't expect to die at the hands of his own courtiers, what a grievance! Yuangai Suwen is undoubtedly a traitor at first glance, if it were in our Baekje, he should have died a long time ago, and he would have been allowed to mutiny? ”

"Yuangai Suwen is a chaotic minister and thief, it is true that everyone can be punished, if it is in our dynasty, he will not even have the opportunity to be an official and a general!"

Some courtiers hurriedly said, and after speaking, another courtier came out of the line.

"Your Majesty, according to the minister's opinion, Goguryeo is really worried about the death of the country this time!"

"Yes, yes, Goguryeo has really stepped into the Ghost Gate, even if it finally repels the Tang army, it will be a broken limb to survive!"

"Your Majesty, this is a great opportunity! Silla has already sent troops to occupy several cities! ”

"Looking at the Tang Dynasty's Eastern Crusade, it looks like we are vowing to annex Silla, if we send troops, wouldn't it be tantamount to taking food from the tiger's mouth? Your Majesty, the ministers feel that they should be cautious! ”

A group of ministers were arguing and shouting in the court, and no one could convince anyone, and Fuyuzhang looked at the north, as if he saw a large area of ownerless city land.

"This is a God-given opportunity for us to be in Baekje, how can we miss it? Datang only has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and after defeating Silla, he is already sleepy and tired, so do you dare to use troops against us in Baekje? ”

Silla and Baekje have sent troops to attack the city of Goguryeo, looking like they beat the water dogs, whether it is the Tang army soldiers or the Goguryeo people, they all know, whether it is Li Er or the soldiers do not care about this, Goguryeo has long been regarded as a bag, whoever eats it has to spit it out, Yuangai Suwen and the courtiers of Goguryeo did not take it to heart, as the saying goes, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, as long as the Tang army is defeated, it is not easy to clean up Goguryeo and Baekje? They can definitely fight their crying father and mother, and it can't be said that they didn't take it to heart, but they don't have the energy and the heart to think about Silla and Baekje, because the Tang army has already approached the royal capital, the banners are rolling, the spears are like forests, Che Linlin and Ma Xiaoxiao, and the army is marching towards Pyongyang, the capital of the Goguryeo king, and the atmosphere of the entire Pyongyang city is unprecedentedly dignified, although both the people and the courtiers know that this will come sooner or later, but when this day really comes, people still feel panicked, Since the Yuangai Suwen mutiny, the power has been monopolized, and the people in the city have not committed any crimes, but for the courtiers and nobles, Yuangai Suwen has not raised a butcher's knife, and for the slightest abnormal person, Yuangai Suwen has suppressed it with iron and blood, and even did not hesitate to raid the family and exterminate the clan, such a ruthless means quickly quelled all dissent in Pyongyang City, and even the generals of King Qin who came from the counties also bowed their heads, on the one hand, because Yuangai Suwen held heavy troops, on the other hand, it was also because the Tang army was pressing step by step, So that everyone has to temporarily put aside the dissent and unanimously to the outside world, so, although Yuangai Suwen is a mutiny, but in a very short period of time, the court and the internal are integrated together, and the orders are also unimpeded, although Yuangai Suwen has not yet been ranked as the king, but he is only self-proclaimed as Mo Lizhi, but it is no different from the real king, however, Yuangai Suwen also has no time to enjoy the wonderful taste of holding supreme power, because he must defeat the Tang army, and only by defeating the Tang army can he truly grasp this supreme power, If the Tang army can't be defeated, then all this is just a flower in the mirror, so for this upcoming war, Yuangai Suwen also took a twelve-point attitude to deal with it, and frequently convened a group of generals to discuss.

"The musket is indeed sharp, and it is another major reliance of the Tang Army in addition to artillery, but Ben Shuai feels that the musket is the weakness of the Tang Army!"

Yuangai Suwen groaned, and the generals couldn't help but look at each other when they heard it, the musket is so sharp, it is what everyone is most worried about, why does the marshal feel that the musket is the weakness of the Tang Army? Seeing that the generals were confused, Yuangai Suwen explained.

"In fact, everyone's attention is on muskets and artillery, but they ignore that even without muskets and artillery, the combat power of the Tang army is very strong, after all, when the Tang army destroyed the Turks in one fell swoop, there were no muskets and artillery! Therefore, it is not easy to defeat the Tang army head-on, so now the Tang army regards the musket as a reliance, but it is an opportunity, because the musket is not without weaknesses. ”

"What are the weaknesses of the musket? Could it be that you are afraid of water? ”

The generals asked confusedly, and Yuangai Suwen shook his head.

"I don't know if I'm afraid of the water, but we can't predict the weather, the weakness of the musket is like a bow and arrow, as long as it rushes to the side of the musket, what will happen?"

"What will happen?"

A general then asked.

"Slaughter! A naked massacre of the Don Army musketeers! As long as they rushed to the front of the musketeers, the musketeers could not resist at all, and the final result could only be a rout, and the rout of the muskets would inevitably implicate the entire Tang army! This is the weakness of the musket, and the weakness of the entire Don army! ”

There was no lack of excitement in Yuangai Suwen's tone, Yuangai Suwen said very excitedly, but there were not many excited expressions on the faces of the generals.

"Dashuai, the musket is so powerful, the range is extremely long, the power is extremely great, and it is endless, how can you rush to the front of the musket array?"

Some generals couldn't help but ask, and all the generals nodded in unison, how to rush to the front of the musket array is the biggest problem, how to rush to the front of the musket array? Of course, it is to fill it with human lives, Yuan Gai Suwen said in a deep voice.

"Although the musket is powerful and long-range and continuous, the interval between each round of salvo is much larger than that of the bow and arrow, so as long as you rush forward fearlessly, you can still rush to the front of the musket array, what do you think? If you have any questions, you can speak freely, and if you want to defeat the Tang Army, you must work together. ”

"Even if the charging soldiers fearlessly rushed forward and really rushed to the front of the Tang army, how many people could be left, would it be useful?"

A general asked suspiciously, and Yuan Gai Suwen said in a deep voice.

"It works! You have not seen a musket, but Ben Shuai has seen it! ”

The generals were shocked when they heard this, it turned out that the marshal had actually seen muskets, although now everyone knows how powerful muskets and artillery are, but they have never seen muskets and artillery, but they didn't expect that the marshal has seen it, and of course the marshal knows more about muskets.

"Sir, what does that musket look like? Why is it so powerful? ”

The generals asked suspiciously, and Yuangai Suwen groaned.

"The musket is actually a somewhat curved iron rod, as for why the iron rod can emit such great power, this Shuai is not very clear, Ben Shuai has also asked the craftsmen, and they are all confused and clueless."

The generals were a little disappointed when they heard this, and returned to the original question, if the musket is just a curved iron rod, then it really has no combat effectiveness on the battlefield, and the formation of the musket is so dense, wielding the iron rod does not knock down the comrades first? You can't stab someone with an iron rod, can you? Seeing a sudden look on everyone's faces, Yuan Gai Suwen said in a deep voice.

"Therefore, even if there are few people and rush to the front of the musket array, it can play a role, making the musket array commotion or even retreating, as for how to rush to the front of the musket array? Ben Shuai does not believe that there are no fearless warriors in Goguryeo, Ben Shuai will select people who dare to die in the three armies to charge the musket array, and all the soldiers of the army can sign up. The general will be promoted to three levels, and the hereditary will be replaced! ”

A group of soldiers couldn't help but gasp when they heard it, as the saying goes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward, the handsome is the future king, and such a heavy reward is given, it is conceivable that there must be many soldiers who sign up, after all, everyone is a soldier to support their families, not to mention that the musket formation does not necessarily have to die, even if they must die for this heavy reward, there will be many people who sign up.
