Chapter 448: Refusal to negotiate peace

Knowing that Li Xiang had advanced to Anshi, the top leaders of Goguryeo really couldn't sit still, and if Li Xiang took this place, then north of the Daedong River, their resistance force would not even form a system, and the rest of the army would be separated from Goguryeo itself.

"All ready, fire!"

This is the first time the artillery has been fired, since we arrived in Anshi, many troops inside wanted to rush out, but according to Li Xiang's order, they were not annihilated, but they were just blown back with shells, these people had no defensive equipment on their bodies, so when they encountered shells, many people became a blood gourd, and in the end they could only retreat to the city.

Niu Jinda saw very clearly in the tent, dozens of people had to die at this time, and tomorrow it would be time for him to attack, if these people just wanted to run out, it is estimated that there will be no more people left tomorrow, according to the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, it depends on the number of people you kill and capture, if this number is not high, this credit is not big!

"You know that if you can't rush out, don't go out, and running out is also fatal, can't you wait for such a day's work?"

After hearing Niu Jinda's words, Li Xiang and Su Dingfang laughed, in fact, people are like this, if they don't have a chance to run, they can only stay in the city and wait for death, but if there is such a chance, no matter how many times they try, everyone wants to rush out.

They can also see on the city wall that the Tang army is coming from the west, if they can run out today, then they will go out, if they can't run out today, with the Tang army surrounded, even if they have wings, I am afraid they will not be able to get out.

"General Niu should sit down and rest, tomorrow it will be time for you to go to the battlefield, the people of Goguryeo are not weak in combat effectiveness, especially when they are fighting to the death in the end, they still have a certain amount of combat effectiveness."

Su Dingfang has fought many times with the people of Goguryeo, so he naturally knows the strength of these outlaws, but Su Dingfang also feels that compared with the last war, the combat effectiveness of these people has decreased too quickly.

Of course, it may also be the reason why we have artillery, when the artillery explodes on the battlefield, many people in Goguryeo panic, and the original combat ability may not be able to be brought into play, which is also a major reason why our side was able to win quickly.

"You kid is holding all kinds of merits in his arms, I'm not as leisurely as you, the two of us are also deputy generals, but you can already go back to the capital to receive rewards, I don't have anything under my hands, aren't I in a hurry?"

Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang are also more familiar, and they don't dare to say this when they change someone else's words, but there is nothing to hide at this moment, big men pursue merit and think about relying on military exploits to seal their wives and sons, which is also a very normal thing.

Hearing Niu Jinda say this, Su Dingfang smiled and didn't speak, after all, he was the place to take advantage, if he continued to argue, it would be a bit cheap, he had already made up his mind in his heart, and all the tough battles after that would be handed over to Niu Jinda.

"Report to His Royal Highness Taisun, report to the two generals, Li Renxi, the head of the march in the northern region of Goguryeo, sent someone to deliver a letter......"

Li Xiang closed all channels for dialogue, no matter whether you send someone over or send a letter over, we don't care about it, it wasn't that no one surrendered before, but Li Xiang sealed the way to surrender to them, mainly because he had been attacking at that time, and now it is easy to start recuperating, and someone is sending letters over, and the level is getting higher and higher.

"Is this person here to surrender too?"

Li Xiang was no longer willing to read these letters, so he motioned for the young generals below to open them.

"Report to His Highness, he is not here to surrender, he said that Goguryeo has sent someone to talk about this matter, it is their Han King Gao Xian, who is the younger brother of the King of Goguryeo......"

The lieutenant under his command looked at it and said, this is also a letter of state from Goguryeo, but our Royal Highness doesn't even read it, which means that you Goguryeo don't have such an opportunity, and you were given a chance in the past, but you people don't take it well, and now you still want to return to the original level, do you think it's possible?

"Pass the order, tomorrow, General Niu Jinda will be the commander, and I will take Anshi."

After Li Xiang's words were finished, Niu Jinda immediately knelt in front of Li Xiang and said that he had received the order.

As for the letter that was sent, his lieutenant threw it directly into the fire, and according to the meaning of our Highness, that is, there is no idea of talking to you.

"Your Highness, aren't we a little too iron-blooded, if we wait a little for two days, maybe their negotiators will come, and we can take the land north of the Datong River without spending a single soldier, wouldn't it be better?"

Su Dingfang said with some puzzlement, although their attack was smooth this time, and they quickly won a large area of land, but after all, this is a war, if it can be won through negotiations, it will also save a lot of resources for us, and there is no need to let the brothers be damaged.

"What are you talking about, taking advantage of the high morale of our brothers now, we will take down all the land north of the Datong River in one go, and if we want to negotiate at that time, will we still want the land north of the Datong River? We want the land south of the Datong River. ”

Niu Junda said while eating a roast leg of mutton, the people in the army have a lot of food, and after a while, a roast leg of mutton will go in.

Li Xiang laughed after listening to Liu Jinda's words, although the final development may not be like this, but what Niu Jinda said is not wrong, if we stop attacking now, then the object of our negotiation is the land north of the Datong River, but if we take Anshi, then the object of our negotiation is the entire Goguryeo.

"How's the land being measured?"

Li Xiang also thought of another thing, our army is fighting in the front, and the land behind must be auctioned off as soon as possible, and we must not be allowed to lose money to fight, anyway, these lands are all Goguryeo, as long as someone buys it, it is equivalent to giving us a mouthful of blood.

"The people of Liaodong County have already started to work, but because the land area is too large, it will take some time."

Su Dingfang has already asked people to do this, but the land area here is too much, and it will not be clear for a while......
