Chapter 992 Appointment
Li Shimin and Su Cheng have a big appetite, but they forgot that Goguryeo and Gaisuwen are also his.
With him, Gaisuwen is here, and he wants to invade Liaodong? It is really a delusion.
Yuan Gai Suwen asked, "Has the king agreed to cede Liaodong? This is absolutely not possible. If there is no Liaodong, then we Goguryeo will have no danger to defend!"
The scout said: "I hurriedly said that the king did not agree to cede Liaodong, but decided to fight to the death!"
After hearing this, Yoon Gaisuwen said passionately: "Okay, I should fight to the death. What news did he hear?"
The scout hesitated and said, "And, there is still..."
Yuan Gaisuwen frowned and asked, "What else? Tell me quickly, what are you doing for hesitation?"
"Duke Rong of the Tang Dynasty once exonerated the general in front of the envoy!" the scout replied.
The generals around were stunned when they heard this. Su Cheng actually excused the general. Why is this?
Could it be that Su Cheng and Dashuai are really close friends?
When Yuan Gai Suwen heard this, he was furious and was furious. Su Cheng's move was not intended to excuse him, but clearly wanted to frame him and disagree with him.
I don't want the king and the ministers to suspect him or stop him from leading the troops, or even to kill him.
"Su Cheng is so sinister and cunning!" Yuan Gai Suwen said angrily.
"Master, Duke Rong actually excused the Master, this, this..." the general next to him hesitated.
"Idiot!" Yuan Gai Suwen said in a deep voice: "This is Su Cheng who is plotting conspiracies and provoking discord! He was afraid that I would lead the troops, so he deliberately excused me in front of the envoy, in order to make the king and the ministers doubt me."
"This battle is related to the life and death of our Goguryeo. If the king and his ministers have suspicion of me, how could they let me lead the troops for the sake of safety?"
When the generals heard this, they felt that what the general said made sense. Maybe Su Cheng did this to really want to sow discord.
"This Su Cheng is really despicable and shameless. He actually wants to frame the general!"
"Yes, it's so shameless. If you have the courage, you can compete with the Grand Marshal on the battlefield. Do you want to make some conspiracies and calculate that you are a hero?"
"In my opinion, Su Cheng and the Emperor of Tang were afraid of the general. They knew that the general had an unparalleled military strategy in the world, so they used such despicable means."
Yuan Gai Suwen couldn't help but nod. Although he cursed Su Cheng as despicable, he didn't really think Su Cheng was shameless.
After all, this counter-espionage strategy was written in a military book. When the two armies were fighting, they were all-out to do anything. What is the calculation of counter-espionage?
He was a little impressed by Su Cheng's counter-espionage plan. Su Cheng is such a good method.
Of course, he was more angry and frustrated.
Originally, after he wanted to return to the capital, the king and the ministers explained clearly, and he had a very high prestige among the soldiers of the three armies, so he still had great confidence in his heart, and could convince the king and the ministers to take charge of the troops again.
As long as he can lead the troops, he will be confident in defeating the Tang army.
Not only can he defeat the Tang army, but he may also capture the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and a group of generals of the Tang Dynasty!
Of course, Su Cheng also includes.
His biggest dream is to capture Su Cheng alive. If he captures Su Cheng alive, he can make Su Cheng brew wine, make Su Cheng make glass mirrors, and make Su Cheng make cannons. Not only can he make money, but it is not impossible to unify the world.
However, after being attacked by Su Cheng again, can he continue to lead the troops?
For a moment, even Yuan Gaisuwen was unsure.
Before the army reached the capital, the news of the army's return had already reached the capital.
News has been flying all over the past few days. The Tang army advanced again, attacking the city and siege, and attacking all the way, and the battle was invincible. The city was lost one after another, which made the people of the capital panic. According to the speed of the Tang army's attack, they might soon attack the capital.
Originally, the people in the capital thought that the war was far away from them, but they did not expect that the Tang army would attack the cities and capture the villages so quickly. Liaodong could not defend, and the defenders of each city could not defend at all, because they were afraid that the capital would not be able to defend either.
Now that they heard the news of the army's return, they felt much more at ease.
This is the most elite army in the court. Defending the city may not be able to withstand the artillery of the Tang Dynasty, but in field battles, they will definitely not lose to the Tang army.
When the army returns, there is no need to be afraid of the Tang army attacking. See how rampant the Tang army is still.
In the palace, Gao Jianwu couldn't help but feel happy when he heard the army was about to return. The pressure he was under these days can be imagined.
"It is said that Gao Ao Sheng Shou, Gao Huizhen entered the palace to see the orphan!"
"I passed on the will of the orphans, and ordered the army to stay thirty miles away from the city, and ordered the master to enter the palace by Yuan Gaisuwen."
Gao Yanshou has been in the mansion, and as time goes by, he feels more and more nervous. Now he hears the summoning of the king and is happy and he quickly attacks.
I met Gao Huizhen on the way, and the two looked at each other and smiled. How could they not know about the ups and downs of the capital these days?
Now that the army is about to return, it is conceivable what the king summoned them.
"I am Gao Yanshou and see the king!"
"I am Gao Huizhen, please see the king!"
"You two dear friends are exempt from courtesy!" Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice.
Gao Huizhen and Gao Yanshou quickly stood up and stood respectfully, looking as if they were waiting for instructions.
Gao Jianwu walked slowly with his hands behind his back and pondered: "Gao Yanshou, although you have lost Liaodong, it is because the artillery attacks of the Tang Dynasty are indeed powerful."
Gao Yanshou hurriedly said, "It is my crime. I am willing to be a pawn of the army. I only hope to die in the battlefield. I will kill a few more Tang people before I die to make up for my crime!"
After hearing Gao Yanshou's words, Gao Jianwu felt a lot in his heart and nodded slightly, "I am loyal to you and patriotism, and I am very comforted by myself!"
Gao Yanshou hurriedly said: "Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism is the duty of the minister!"
How great would it be if Yuan Gai Suwen was so loyal. Gao Jianwu sighed and pondered: "Now I know that the artillery of the Tang Dynasty is powerful and cannot defend the city. It is indeed not your fault that Liaodong was suddenly attacked by the artillery of the Tang Dynasty! And you know the Tang army the best, so I want you to take charge and make meritorious service!"
Gao Yanshou was very surprised when he heard this and hurriedly said, "I will do my best to repay the king!"
Gao Jianwu nodded slightly, turned his head to look at Gao Huizhen, and said in a deep voice: "Gao Huizhen, I am my destiny to be the deputy commander. You two must work together to defeat the Tang army. The burden of our Goguryeo's life and death will fall on you!"
Gao Huizhen was also very happy when she heard this and hurriedly said, "Please rest assured, if you don't defeat the Tang army, I will never return to the court!"
Gao Jianwu smiled and said, "I still have to go north to the palace for a banquet, and wait for the two dear ministers to drink the celebration wine together!"
