Ryan hurriedly rushed to Li Zhi and handed the still hot piece to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi opened the recital, and after reading it, the whole person stood up excitedly.

"Ryan, immediately gather the ministers and start the court!"

"Whoa!"

glanced at the excited Li Zhi, Ruian is also familiar, as if the last time Tubo was pacified, could it be that Li Ji and Liu Renliang wrote because Goguryeo was pacified?

didn't dare to slack off, Ryan immediately called all the officials who accompanied him out of the palace.

The civil and military forces don't know what kind of madness this emperor is smoking, only Ren Yaxiang and a few people know that the only thing that can make the emperor make such a big move may be the matter of Goguryeo.

You must know that the last time Tubo was pacified by Su Dingfang, the emperor was temporary, and now it should be about the same.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

When a group of civil and military officers entered the hall, they all saluted Li Zhi.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have just received a joint decree from the British Duke and the Governor of the Navy, and the entire territory of Goguryeo has been taken by my Tang Dynasty, and even the Yan Ya and Wuluohun tribes in the north have all been surrendered to my Tang Dynasty."

Li Zhi directly told the news that Goguryeo was taken down.

"This is the blessing of Your Majesty, the blessing of the Tang Dynasty, and the blessing of the people of the world!"

Ren Yaxiang was also the first to stand up after hearing this, praising Li Zhi's merits.

"This is the blessing of Your Majesty, the blessing of the Tang Dynasty, and the blessing of the people of the world!"

"This is the blessing of Your Majesty, the blessing of the Tang Dynasty, and the blessing of the people of the world!"

"This is the blessing of Your Majesty, the blessing of the Tang Dynasty, and the blessing of the people of the world!"

A group of civil and military officers also saluted Li Zhi together, and at the same time followed Ren Yaxiang to sing praises of virtue.

"Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, I have conquered Goguryeo four times, and now I have finally calmed it down.

I decided to divide the whole territory of Goguryeo into nine prefectures and 42 prefectures, and set up the Andong Protectorate in Pyongyang City.

Then the people were migrated to Goguryeo, enriching the estate, and the six ministries deployed officials to prepare to receive them.

At the same time, amnesty will be granted to the whole world, and the whole world will celebrate. ”

Li Zhi waved at everyone, and his father had already discussed with the officials the ruling policy after taking Goguryeo.

The Nine Metropolitan Governors, together with the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, were enough to ensure the safety of the entire territory of Goguryeo.

Now my father's long-cherished wish has finally been fulfilled, and Goguryeo, the great scourge of the East, has finally been pacified by the Tang Dynasty.

Now that the Tang Dynasty has leveled Goguryeo in the east and Tubo in the southwest, it can be said that there is no threat at all.

After two generations of attacks, Datang finally stabilized Datang completely.

"My Emperor Shengming!"

"My Emperor Shengming!"

"My Emperor Shengming!"

The hundred officials saluted again, and they all knew the meaning of taking Goguryeo, and now Datang can finally recuperate for a while.

"Your Majesty, is there a candidate for the Metropolitan Governor of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate?"

After complimenting, Ren Yaxiang also remembered an important question, that is, the candidate for the governor of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate.

This person must have enough force, resourcefulness, and prestige to completely suppress the situation in Goguryeo.

It stands to reason that the most suitable candidate should be the British Duke Li Ji, but he is very old and has a high prestige, and if he is in Goguryeo, I am afraid that the tail will not be lost.

So he would never allow this to happen.

"Ren Yaxiang, do you have a suitable candidate?"

Li Zhi naturally understood Ren Yaxiang's thoughts, and he didn't want Li Ji to stay in Goguryeo, just as he couldn't let Su stay in Tubo in the first place.

These generals are still good at staying under their noses.

The minister thought that the most suitable person would be the British duke, but the British duke was too old to stay in a bitter cold place like Goguryeo.

Therefore, the minister recommended Xue Li and Xue Rengui, the general of the Right Weiwei, as the governor of Andong Protectorate to guard the entire territory of Goguryeo. ”

Ren Yaxiang thought about it for a while, in addition to Li Ji, the most suitable candidate is Xue Rengui who followed him to pacify Goguryeo.

This person is young in the end, although he has made many military exploits, but he still can't talk about Li Ji.

If it is guarded by Xue Li, there should be no problem.

"Okay, then appoint Xue Li, the general of the Right Weiwei, as the governor of Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, to guard the entire territory of Goguryeo.

At the same time, he ordered the British Gong Li Ji to return to the dynasty to reward him. ”

Li Zhi nodded, although this Ren Yaxiang was a little annoying, he had to say that he was all for the Tang Dynasty.

was aimed at Su Dingfang at the beginning, and now it is aimed at Li Ji, all for the sake of Datang.

And this Ren Yaxiang's thoughts are the same as him, he is also inclined to put Xue Li and Xue Rengui in the Andong Protectorate to guard.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

A group of civil and military officials watched the two of them sing and harmonize, and they had no objections.

Soon the holy decree left Luoyang and rushed towards the Goguryeo border.

"Xue Li, the old man has already told you all about the things here, as long as you don't do anything too out of the ordinary, Goguryeo will be able to completely become the territory of my Tang Dynasty in less than ten years!"

Li Ji looked at Xue Rengui beside him, his eyes full of appreciation.

Xue Li has been following him for so long, and his growth every day has been watched by Li Ji.

This guy is really a good material to be a general, as long as he thinks about it a lot, he will definitely be able to achieve great things.

"General, what do you mean by that?"

Xue Li saluted at Li Ji, his eyes full of doubt.

This Li Ji suddenly told him this, and he was really a little inexplicable.

"Our recital should be in Luoyang now, and after Your Majesty receives the recital, he will inevitably make my class teacher return to the court, and the candidate for this Goguryeo should be you."

Li Ji smiled at Xue Rengui, and also told all the reasons.

"General, the best person to guard Goguryeo is you, why did Your Majesty let you return to the court?"

Xue Rengui was stupid, he couldn't figure it out, this guard of Goguryeo was clearly Li Jicai, why was it going to fall on his head.

"The old man is old, Goguryeo is bitterly cold, I have been here for a long time, this old bone may be lost here.

Presumably, Your Majesty will definitely be sympathetic to an old man like me and let me go back to Datang to recuperate.

You are young and strong, and it is just right for you to guard this Goguryeo. ”

Li Ji didn't say anything, he knew very well that with the emperor's imperial mind, he would definitely not let such a prestigious prince stay outside.

If he is a little rebellious, it will be much more serious for the Tang Dynasty than that of Goguryeo.

Xue Rengui is different, young and promising, strong and healthy, the most important thing is that the foundation is shallow, and it is just right to guard Goguryeo.

"General, I'm afraid it's not the reason!"

Xue Li is not a fool, looking at Li Ji's expression, he can almost think of something.

"Don't think so much, don't say so much, just know everything yourself."

Li Ji glanced at Xue Rengui again, as much as he could realize, he was still young anyway, and there would be opportunities in the future.

"Xue Li understands, if there is nothing wrong, I will go and prepare first!"

Xue Li saluted and withdrew directly.

It didn't take long for Li Zhi's will to be among the three armies, Li Ji took over the order to return to the court, and Xue Rengui set off for Pyongyang City, preparing to sort out the affairs of the Andong Protectorate.

The ships from Baekje finally arrived in the Wa Kingdom, and when they heard that the Wa Naval Division had been completely wiped out by the Tang Dynasty Naval Division, and that all the soldiers and horses that had landed had been captured, the entire Wa Kingdom was blown up.

What the people of the Wa Kingdom are most afraid of now is that the Tang Dynasty Navy will attack the mainland across the sea and destroy them.

Therefore, they unanimously decided to send someone to Datang to submit their credentials to Datang, and they were willing to belong to Datang.

At the same time, the defense line was actively arranged to prevent Datang from attacking.

As for the 20,000 captives, the emperor didn't care at all, anyway, they were all soldiers and horses of local wealthy families, and if one died, there would be one less.

However, the powerful people of all parties did not agree, since the royal family did not pay for it, they themselves also scraped together 200,000 taels of gold and went in the direction of Baekje by sea ship.

After realizing the strength of the Tang Dynasty, the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom also began to learn from the Tang Dynasty, copying all the laws from government affairs to the Tang Dynasty.

In addition, apprentices were sent to Datang to learn Datang's advanced technology.

"Father, now that the Quartet has been decided, when are you going to attack the Wa Kingdom!"

Li Yanran came to her father's side, and now that Tubo and Goguryeo have been taken, it's time to deal with the Japanese state.

Taking them Datang is equivalent to having an overseas base, and the next step can be to extend outward with the Wa Kingdom to see if it can reach the Americas.

"Why are you so keen to take the Wa Kingdom?"

Li Zhi was depressed, I am afraid that this Japanese country will not provoke his precious daughter in his previous life.

Otherwise, how could she be so concerned.

It seems that if the country of Wa is not destroyed, she will not be blind to death.

"Father, haven't you seen the previous naval battle? This country is simply a hungry wolf, if you don't take them down, it will be difficult for you to sleep! ”

What else can Li Yanran say? To prevent future aggression by them?

My dad won't believe it at all.

"Well, haven't I already ordered the Ministry of the Sea to develop ocean-going vessels? I believe that it will not take much time to succeed.

At that time, let the sailors go east and directly destroy the Japanese kingdom. ”

Li Zhi always felt that his daughter had some strange feelings for the Japanese Kingdom, anyway, she had never been like this when she was dealing with Tubo and Goguryeo.

However, after the previous battles, the country also saw the strength and ambition of the Wa State.

When the sea ship is complete and the division is headed east, there should be no problem.

"Yan Ran also sent people to study ocean-going cargo ships, now there are almost dozens of them, if my father needs me, I am willing to let them go out with the sailors to help transport grain and grass supplies!"

Li Yanran has been exploding troops and ships in the past two years, and the ocean-going ships have grown from a dozen or so at the beginning to dozens now, but they are all made of real money.

Fortunately, the trade with the Japanese has already made up for these shortfalls, which is also the fundamental reason why she said this.

The main hit is a rich and capricious, casual creation.

"You've built so many ships?"

Hearing Li Yanran's words, Li Zhi was also stunned.

He really didn't know what his daughter had done in the past two years.

Dozens of ocean-going vessels, each of which is worth a lot of money, really stands out as a rich one.

"Father, don't worry, these sea ships were built by me with my own money, and you don't have a penny!"

Glancing at her father, Li Yanran hurriedly explained, I spent all my money, you can't say anything about me.

"What kind of person am I? But these dozens of sea ships are your hard work, do you really want to take them out and let them go with the sailors? ”

Li Zhi is depressed, is your old son so unbearable in your eyes?

Just looking at that little profit all day long?

If he really cared, could he still keep all the money with Li Yanran?

"As a princess of the Tang Dynasty, since she enjoys the rights granted by the Tang Dynasty, she naturally has to take on the corresponding responsibilities.

There are only dozens of sea ships, as long as they can calm down the Japanese kingdom in one fell swoop, what can they all take out? ”

As long as you can take down the small Wa Kingdom and destroy this land of wolf ambitions, let alone dozens of sea ships.

It doesn't matter if she gets dozens of them out.

What is money used for, isn't it just spent for?

If you spend it and earn it, you can't get it.

She is not one of those royal children, she can only spend money, not make money.
