Did the emperor think that the defenders of Liaodong could withstand the attack of the Goguryeo army?

However, the imperial court did not deploy much troops in Liaodong because the court's focus has always been on the Western Regions.

Although Goguryeo and the Tang Dynasty were on guard against each other, there had never been any major conflict.

Therefore, Cheng Yaojin and the others felt that since Goguryeo suddenly invaded the border, they must have been well prepared, and the Liaodong defenders would be difficult to resist.

Liaodong is bitter and cold, and the fighting power of the Goguryeo people is really not weak. Moreover, the severe cold and hard work have trained their strong will, otherwise it would not have been possible to resist the attack of a million troops three times.

Let’s take a step back, even if the Liaodong defenders resisted Goguryeo’s attack, they should send troops!

I was punched by someone. Even if I blocked it, I should go back! I will go back twice as much!

You can't call me, just block it, right?

So Cheng Yaojin and the others were very puzzled, why did they have to wait?

But since Your Majesty said that, they could only wait. Fortunately, the urgent report from Liaodong must have come soon.

The people of the government and the country, and even the entire Chang'an, were waiting for the urgent report from Liaodong.

Wait, wait, wait...

One day, two days, three days, four days...

Why haven't the emergency report come yet?

Even the guards who came out of the city gate felt a sense of hope.

Could it be that the defenders of Liaodong really resisted the attack of the Goguryeo army?

But, it's not right!

Even if the Liaodong defenders really resisted the attack of the Goguryeo army, they would definitely report to the court.

A war with neighboring countries is a top priority, and it doesn't make sense that there has not been any movement yet!

Could it be that Goguryeo's movements are too slow?

Then wait a little longer.

Another day, two days, three days...

No, why is the New Year coming soon?

Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong went straight to Sujiazhuang.

"Boy Su, why haven't there been any emergency reports from Liaodong?" Cheng Yaojin asked straight to the point.

These days he and Yuchi Gong have fought a lot, not for anything else, just to compete for the position of the chief executive.

Although they knew that this was not up to them, the two of them always fought for no reason and couldn't help it.

Su Cheng spread his hands and said, "Without any emergency report from Liaodong, I know this!"

"What do you don't know? Didn't you say that Goguryeo is moving troops?" Yuchi Gong asked anxiously.

Su Cheng nodded and said, "I said it! Goguryeo is indeed moving troops!"

Cheng Yaojin asked, "Then why there is no urgent report?"

Su Cheng spread his hands and said, "I am not a Liaodong garrison, how can I know this?"

That's true!

Cheng Yaojin asked in confusion: "Can't you even not send out the urgent report?"

Yuchi Gong said contemptuously: "How is it possible? Do you think Goguryeo has such great ability? And even if the Liaodong defenders failed to issue an urgent report, even the news from the people could spread to Chang'an!"

"What's going on?" Cheng Yaojin said in confusion.

After waiting for so long, no one has ever doubted Su Cheng, which shows the impression of Su Cheng in the hearts of the court officials.

But after waiting for so long, there was no news. Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but wonder: "Boy Su, is this news true or false?"

Su Cheng nodded for granted: "Of course it's true!"

Yuchi Gong asked, "But why there is no emergency report from Liaodong?"

Su Cheng shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know!"

Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong were both confused. What was going on?

Seeing that Su Cheng looks like this doesn't seem fake, and Su Cheng has gone to the palace to report to His Majesty, he must be very confident.

But there was no emergency report from Liaodong, which made people wonder.

Cheng Yaojin suddenly asked with a strange idea: "Su Cheng, shouldn't Goguryeo not launching troops to us, but to Silla or Baekje?"

Yuchi Gong said angrily: "If Goguryeo launches troops against Silla or Baekje, what will Su Cheng's people come back after a lot of hardships? Su Cheng will go to the palace to report to His Majesty, how about amusing?"

Almost all officials thought so. Since Su Cheng's people ran back to report the news without fear of the cold, and Su Cheng ran to the palace to report to His Majesty, of course, they were sure that Goguryeo was going to launch troops against the Tang Dynasty.

If Goguryeo was fighting against Silla or Baekje, what was there to be nervous? What was there to report?

Cheng Yaojin patted his forehead and said, "That's true, but something must have happened to this!"

Yuchi Gong asked, "Su Cheng, can't your person make a mistake? Is there any news from Goguryeo during this period?"

There was indeed a news from Goguryeo two days ago, and Yuan Gaisuwen took several cities in a row, and it was unstoppable.

Su Cheng couldn't help but sigh that Yuan Gai Suwen is truly a famous general in Goguryeo and does have two tricks.

When Man Chang'an was in the dark, Su Cheng entered the palace to tell Li Shimin the news.

Li Shimin knew that it was Long Yan very happy, but what he was most concerned about was whether Silla sent envoys to ask for help.

Su Cheng didn't know about this. After all, his caravan did not arrive in Silla, but according to speculation, Silla would definitely try to save himself.

I just don’t know what choice Baekje will make at this time.

This is hard to say, because Goguryeo, Silla and Baekje have deep grudges in conquering each other.

Sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight?

Join forces with Silla to deal with Goguryeo?

Or take advantage of the situation?

There is no doubt that Li Shimin certainly did not want Silla and Baekje to join forces to deal with Goguryeo. In that case, Silla would not come to the Tang Dynasty for help, and he would have no reason to send troops.

However, of course, it is impossible to tell Cheng Yaojin and the others about this. Su Cheng smiled and shook his head and said, "No news is coming!"

Cheng Yaojin said in confusion: "I heard from the door of the house silently, it seems that a servant from your mansion came from afar a few days ago. Didn't he come from Liaodong?"

Su Cheng shook his head decisively and said, "Don't come from Liaodong! I really haven't received any news from Liaodong again!"

Yuchi Gong walked behind his hands and said, "There is something wrong! This is definitely something wrong! There is something wrong!"

Cheng Yaojin asked in confusion: "Strange, has the people sent by His Majesty to Liaodong not come back either?"

Su Cheng slandered, of course he is back, but you don’t know!

Yuchi Gong slapped his thigh and said, "Why don't we send a general to Liaodong for investigation?"

Cheng Yaojin shouted: "Yes, let's just send our generals to Liaodong to see you! It's not a big deal to always wait like this!"

At the beginning, Cheng Yaojin and the others did not expect to send someone to Liaodong to check.

After all, they always felt that the urgent report from Liaodong would arrive soon, maybe tomorrow!

Moreover, the emperor should have sent people to Liaodong to investigate the situation long ago.
