Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

Old Chen was sitting on the top of the wall, drinking wine depressedly.

Soldiers in the city drank to celebrate today's big victory.

Xue Rengui walked up to the wall, holding a jar of wine in his hand.

"Old Chen, why are you in a bad mood today?"

Xue Rengui asked.

Old Chen took a sip of his wine, shook his head and sighed, "Seeing those brothers just now, the past is on my mind again."

The soldiers of the Sui Dynasty were tortured by Goguryeo so that they were not like human beings or ghosts. Thinking about the bones of [-] Sui Dynasty soldiers under the city wall, Lao Chen was depressed.

"How did Yang Guang conquer the Sui Dynasty back then?"

Xue Rengui asked.

"Yang Guang fought three times. The second time was the imperial conquest. The fighting was messy. Many soldiers were killed and some were captured alive."

"This stupid king has no military talent, but he is very happy with his achievements. Such a person deserves to die."

Old Chen scolded.

Only those who have served in the army know how uncomfortable it is to watch their comrades die.

What's more, these people were tortured to death.

Xue Rengui asked: "Didn't your master say that Yang Guang has merit?"

When he was in Sujiazhuang, he heard from Su Yu that Yang Guang was actually okay in some places.

Old Chen said: "The young master said that the construction of the Grand Canal has bad intentions and good things, and the opening of the imperial examination also has the foresight."

"But the son also said that Yang Guanggong is not worth it, and he is still a fool."

Su Yu's evaluation of Yang Guang has one thing to say, some good to say good, and some bad to say bad.

Xue Rengui nodded and said: "Old Chen, don't be sad, wait for us to destroy Goguryeo and take them home."

Old Chen smiled wryly: "They went home, how many brothers' bones are still buried here, how to bring them back."

Xue Rengui sighed, unable to answer.

Chen Yuan led troops to patrol the east to prevent the enemy from attacking.

Xue Rengui finished drinking a jar of wine with Lao Chen, and then went down to change Chen Yuan.

"Chen Yuan, it's time, it's my turn."

Xue Rengui said.

Chen Yuan rode over and said, "Be careful, night is suitable for sneak attacks."

Xue Rengui smiled and said, "Whoever is attacking whom."

Chen Yuan went to Anshi City to rest.

Xue Rengui took over, holding a spear and immediately hanging a bow and arrow.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the bushes in the distance.

Xue Rengui picked up his bow and set up an arrow, ready to shoot.

In the dark night, a woman stepped out.

When the woman saw Xue Rengui at night, she was so frightened that she went into the woods.

Xue Rengui rode on a horse, chased after him, and shouted, "Who! Come out!"

Hearing the voice, the woman hid in the woods and asked, "Are you a general of Datang?"

The language of Goguryeo is very different from that of Tang.

Hearing Xue Rengui's voice, the woman was very happy.

Xue Rengui said coldly: "I am Xue Rengui, a general of the Great Tang Dynasty. Who are you?"

The woman said pleasantly, "I am the special envoy of the Queen of Silla."

The woman came out of the woods and said: "The special envoy of Silla pays his respects to the general."

Xue Rengui carefully confirmed that there were no other people around.

"Are you the special envoy of Queen Silla?"

Xue Rengui asked.

The woman bowed: "Exactly, my queen heard that the Tang army attacked Anshi City, and sent us to respond."

Xue Rengui asked: "Do you know that we have breached Anshi City?"

There are three countries on the Koryo Peninsula.

Goguryeo in the north, Silla in the middle, and Baekje in the south.

At this time, Goguryeo and Baekje fought against Datang, while Silla surrendered to Datang.

The Queen of Silla at this time was Queen Seondeok.

Silla was besieged between Goguryeo and Baekje, and Anshi City had just been breached, so it was impossible for them to know the news so quickly.

What's more, the envoy of the Queen of Silla arrived as soon as Anshicheng was breached.

The woman was surprised: "Anshi City has been breached?"

"I didn't know that Anshi City was breached. I only heard that Datang and Gao Yanshou were fighting in Anshicheng. The Queen sent me to find Emperor Datang."

When they set off, they got the news that Li Shimin had arrived in Youzhou City.

Goguryeo's Gao Yanshou and Gao Bao led the army to face Li Shimin in Anshicheng.

Xue Rengui didn't know whether to believe it or not.

"Go, go into the city."

Xue Rengui was on the horse, holding a spear, and escorting the woman into the city.

Chen Yuan saw it on the city wall, and he laughed and said, "Xue Rengui, where did you catch a beautiful girl?"

Xue Rengui raised his head and said with a smile, "I picked it up by the side of the road."

After entering the city, Xue Rengui got off his horse and escorted the woman into the army camp.

Li Jing and his group were looking at the map.

Although Su Yu was there, they didn't have to think about any attack route, and they didn't have to deploy troops.

But they are used to it, and they feel uncomfortable without looking at the map.

"General Lee, I captured a special envoy from Silla."

Xue Rengui smiled.

The woman was taken into a big tent.

Looking around, the woman asked: "The special envoy of Silla asked to see the Emperor of Tang."

Li Jing looked at the woman suspiciously, and asked, "You say you are the special envoy of Silla, what proof do you have?"

The woman saw that she was surrounded by generals, and they were from the Tang Dynasty.

No matter how you look at it, this is not a trap that Goguryeo can make.

The woman took out a token and a letter of credence from her arms.

"This is the badge and credentials of Her Majesty the Queen."

The woman presented it to Li Jing.

I have seen the token, it is indeed the token of the Queen of Silla, and the letter of credence is also correct, with a seal.

At this time, the characters used in the Goguryeo Peninsula were all Chinese characters, so Li Jing could understand them naturally.

The Koryo Peninsula has been attached to China from the very beginning, and the text and clothes are all modeled on the Central Plains.

It was not until more than 1000 years later that in order to remove the influence of China, it formulated its own text.

The funny thing is that the later Koreans couldn't understand their own ancient history books.

Because all ancient books are in Chinese characters, they must learn a foreign language—Chinese to understand the history of their country.

"Please sit down, special envoy, and watch tea."

Li Jing said.

The soldiers came up and asked the envoy to sit down and poured her tea.

Li Jing left the camp and went to Li Shimin's room.

He knocked on the door, but Li Shimin didn't respond inside.

"Your Majesty, the special envoy of Silla has arrived, please see the Emperor."

He yelled many times, but there was still no movement.

Afraid of accidents, Li Jing asked the soldiers outside the door: "How long has the emperor been sleeping?"

The soldier said: "General Li, the emperor didn't sleep long, but he drank too much."

Li Jing was speechless.

Pushing the door open, he saw Li Shimin lying on the bed so drunk.

With Su Yu really here, don't worry about anything.

In the city of Goguryeo, Li Shimin was drunk and fell asleep.

Li Jing had no choice but to go out, saying: "Keep the gate, this is the city of Goguryeo, assassins may appear at any time."

"If there is a slight mistake, it will be a great crime to destroy the Nine Clans."

The gatekeepers were terrified.

"As ordered!"

The soldier clenched the Mo Dao in his hand.

Li Jing returned to the camp and said: "The special envoy has worked hard all the way, the Emperor broke through Anshi City today, it is really exhausting."

"The special envoy goes down to rest first, the emperor will receive the special envoy tomorrow."

The other generals were surprised.

At this time, the arrival of the Silla envoy is a great thing, and we can discuss the matter of attacking Goguryeo together.

Datang from north to south, Silla from south to north.

Li Shimin didn't come out at this time?
The special envoy was also very strange, but he didn't dare to ask more questions.

"Thank you, General."

The special envoy paid homage.

"Xue Rengui, take her down to rest."

Li Jing said.

Xue Rengui took the woman out and found a room for her to rest alone.

Soldiers were also found to guard to prevent being assassinated.

After the special envoy left, Yu Chigong asked: "Li Yaoshi, why doesn't the emperor see you right away?"

Li Jing said helplessly: "The emperor is drunk."

The generals are stunned
