As soon as these words came out, Chao Wenwu was astonished as a heavenly man.

"Your Majesty's personal conquest?" Changsun Wuji exclaimed in surprise, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. You are a body of ten thousand gold, a lord of ninety-five years, how can you personally conquer that small country."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wei Zheng echoed, "My Great Tang has millions of soldiers, tigers and leopards cavalry, and many generals. You can sit in the capital, and you don't need to be personally involved."

Li Jing stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the little Goguryeo, the last general will lead the army there, and he will be able to destroy Liaodong and directly attack Pyongyang."

Above the court, there are voices of dissuasion.

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Yang Guang, the former emperor of the dynasty, led an army of one million to conquer Goguryeo. I am the emperor on horseback. I have been on the battlefield for more than ten years. How can I be afraid of his little Goguryeo?"

Hundreds of officials, civil and military, looked frowning, and the million-strong army of the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo three times and did not stop.

How many troops does Datang have now, even if the recuperation has recovered in the past two years.

But I am afraid that the number of troops that can be pulled out is less than 50 troops.

At this time, Li Chengqian stood up and said: "Father, you sit in the capital, and my son leads the army."

As soon as these words came out, all the officials in the court showed their eyes.

That's right, isn't there still His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?With this one person, he can stop a million soldiers.

Destroy the Eastern Turks, defeat the Western Turks, and make an expedition to Fusang. The God of War of the Tang Dynasty is here, so why should they be afraid.

Seeing Li Chengqian coming out, Li Shimin was moved.

However, when he rolled his eyes, it was obvious that he had already made a decision.

Li Shimin lowered his eyes and said: "I have made up my mind, so there is no need to persuade me anymore. Let me, Li Shimin, fulfill the long-cherished wish of the Han family that Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, did not fulfill. Let me, Tang Dynasty, fulfill the unfulfilled feat of the Sui Dynasty. "

In the court hall, all civil and military officials took a look.

Li Shimin had made up his mind, so he stopped persuading and bowed their hands one after another.

"My minister wishes Your Majesty a triumphant victory, an invincible army, and a triumphant return..."

Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin, who had a serious face and cold eyes, and didn't say much.

Conquering Goguryeo to the east may have been his long-cherished wish in his life.

Chapter 310 War is imminent

Li Shimin's imperial conquest went straight to Liaodong, and his sword pointed directly at Goguryeo.

Li Jing led the chief commander of the Hebei Road March, accompanied by Li Shimin, and was the commander in chief for the conquest of Goguryeo.

Li Ji and Li Xiaogong led the deputy managers and led the Tang army's naval division to Laizhou, took the waterway, and went straight to the coastal city of Goguryeo, Beisha City.

Li Chengqian led the white-robed army to set off first and galloped towards the Liaodong area.

As soon as the news of the Tang Dynasty's eastern expedition to Goguryeo came out, the whole country was in an uproar.

This move also pushed Li Shimin's reputation to the top.

Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, for the country and the people, crusade against the barbarians, and personally conquered them.

Wherever they went, the people all sang triumphantly, wishing the Tang army a victory and success in no time.

Goguryeo...

Pyongyang...

Rongliu Wang Gao Jianwu looked at the battle report in his hand, his eyes were scarlet and his face was gloomy.

Snapped……

He threw the battle report into the hall, looked at Goguryeo's opponent Lu, and said coldly: "Yuan Gai Suwen, shouldn't you give me a reasonable explanation?"

The disappearance of people in Yingzhou of Datang, why is it related to your Shunnu Department?

Why did the Liaodong Army clash with the Tang Army in Liushan Town, Yingzhou?You still have Wang Fa in your eyes!Is there still the king! "

In the main hall, Yuan Gai Suwen sat on the futon, his face was indifferent, without the slightest fear: "Your Majesty, don't listen to slander. Let alone this matter, whether it was framed by Datang.

Even so, my 60 strong soldiers in Goguryeo, can I be afraid of him, Datang?

Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo three times, but he returned in a big defeat, and finally ended up destroying the country.

Under the iron cavalry of our Liaodong Army, the Tang Army was vulnerable. "

In the words, he didn't put Tang Jun in his eyes, let alone Rongliu Wang Gao Jianwu.

"Presumptuous!" Gao Jianwu was furious: "Now Li Shimin has personally led an army of hundreds of thousands to come to Goguryeo. Along with him, there is the Tang Prince Li Chengqian and his white-robed army, Modaowei!

Isn't the bloody lesson of East Turkic and Fusang not enough!

Do you want me Goguryeo to follow in their footsteps!What are your intentions in covering Su Wen! "

Gao Jianwu hoarse, his anger rushed to the sky, wishing he could step forward and chop off Yuan Gai Suwen's dog's head.

Hearing the white-robed army, Yuan Gai Suwen froze slightly.

A few days ago, Liaodong iron cavalry fought against the white robe army, and the one who was killed was defeated and returned home.

just for a moment...

Yuan Gai Suwen's eyes returned to coldness, and he stood up: "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you are afraid of? Mere Turks, Er Er Fusang, which one can be compared with my Liaodong cavalry.

Han soldiers are nothing more than native chickens and dogs. Millions of Sui soldiers were slaughtered by me in Goguryeo under the city of Liaodong.

Don't be afraid of the Tang army in the fly camp! "

at the same time.

Goguryeo's young envoy (official position) Jin Mushu walked into the court: "The envoy of the Tang Dynasty wrote a letter and submitted it to the king."

Gao Jianwu glared at Yuan Gai Suwen, and said coldly: "Submit it."

In the diplomacy between the two countries, there is only one letter without the envoy, which is an insult in itself.

Gao Jianwu took the letter and slowly opened it.

"Hand over the mastermind, bow your head and proclaim yourself a minister, pay tribute every year, and let the people of my Han family return to the country. If not, my Tang cavalry will flatten every inch of Goguryeo."

Let's see...

Gao Jianwu only felt his heart tremble, he was afraid that Datang was for real this time.

"Emergency report from Liaodong City, Li Shimin led an army of 20 troops, and Chen Bing has arrived outside Liaodong City..."

"Urgent report from Beisha City, Li Ji, Li Xiaogong led a [-] Tang army navy from Laizhou, and is attacking Beisha City..."

"Xincheng urgent report, Qin Shubao, Yu Chigong led an army of [-], and Chen Bing has arrived outside Xincheng..."

At this time, a series of urgent military information came to the court, and Goguryeo was shocked by the civil and military affairs of the court, and was covered in cold sweat.

Li Shimin's army pressed the border, and the soldiers pointed directly at Goguryeo.

"Hahaha..." Gao Jianwu said with a sneer, "What a Tang Dynasty, what a Li Shimin, who writes a letter to the king, and the army is overwhelming. This is forcing the king to surrender."

Yuan Gai Suwen said quietly: "Your Majesty, I have already told you that Li Shimin has ulterior motives and has been spying on me for a long time. This is a trap they set up."

"Hmph..." Gao Jianwu's face was cold, Yuan Gai Suwen was probably responsible for this matter, how could he not know.

But bowing his head to the Tang Dynasty, he absolutely couldn't do it.

At this time, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.

When the Tang Dynasty came to attack, I, Goguryeo, was not a vegetarian.

Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice: "Yuan Gai Suwen, this king ordered you to lead 20 troops to Liaodong County, and hold on to Liaodong City without any mistakes."

Yuan Gai Suwen stepped forward with a look of pride: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely let Li Shimin come and go."

"Jin Da'an, this king ordered you to lead an army of [-] to Beisha City, and resist the Tang army's navy without any mistakes."

"The last general takes orders."

"Pu Linche, this king ordered you to lead an army of [-] to Liaodong County, and hold on to the new city without any mistakes."

"The last general takes orders."

"Jin Mushu, writing Li Shimin, if he fights, I will accompany him to the end. Let him not forget that the corpses of hundreds of thousands of Han soldiers under Liaodong City should not step into the footsteps of the Sui Dynasty."

"Your servant takes orders."

Following the issuance of Gao Jianwu's military orders, Goguryeo began to take action.

An army went to the front line.

The battle between Datang and Goguryeo is imminent.

Outside Liaodong City.

Liaoshui River.

The Tang army camped for hundreds of miles, with banners and flags flying, mighty and mighty.

This is Li Shimin's first personal expedition since Li Shimin took the throne.

Chinese army tent.

Li Shimin, Li Chengqian, Li Jing and Su Dingfang were impressively included.

Li Jing looked at his lover Su Dingfang with loving eyes.

Su Dingfang is the commander-in-chief of the White Robe Army.

He conquered Turks in the north, conquered Gaochang in the west, and conquered Fusang in the east.

It seems that he is already a hot and outstanding general in Datang.

If this conquest of Goguryeo is a big victory, Su Dingfang's official position will be able to go further.

Several people were looking at the map of the Liaodong area, and the envoys outside the camp returned to the camp: "Your Majesty, I am honored to leave Wang Gao Jianwu to write back."

Li Shimin didn't look up: "Read."

In fact, he already had the answer in his heart.

The envoy took out the letter: "If you fight, you will fight. Don't forget how many Han family corpses were buried in Liaodong City..."

"Hmph..." Li Shimin said contemptuously: "I expected Gao Jianwu to say that. He plundered the people of our Tang Dynasty without mentioning a single word, so Gao Jianwu didn't take our Tang Dynasty seriously."

Li Jing said from the side: "Your Majesty don't need to be angry, Goguryeo will definitely pay the price for their ignorance."

Li Shimin nodded, looking at the map, with a confident face: "The three-way army is already in place. My Tang army has many soldiers, excellent equipment, and abundant food and grass. I have never fought such a rich battle in my life."

In this battle, Li Shimin has already made psychological preparations, and will never return Goguryeo if he does not break through.

As the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, this battle must be fought beautifully.

Then he turned his gaze to Li Chengqian and Li Jing: "Chengqian, how will the pharmacist fight this battle?"

Paused...

Li Jing cast his eyes on Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, you should speak first."

Chapter 311

Li Chengqian did not shirk, and walked to the map: "Xincheng, Liaodong City, and Beisha City, we followed the old road of the Sui Dynasty's offensive. Three campaigns and three defeats, Goguryeo has already overwhelmed our Tang army in terms of morale.

There is no way, this is their natural advantage, an advantage left over from history.Therefore, in the first battle, my Tang army must show its morale and strength. "

Li Jing echoed from the side: "His Royal Highness is right. The failure of the Sui Dynasty's eastward campaign to Goguryeo has already planted the seeds of the Han army's vulnerability in the hearts of the Goguryeo soldiers. The defeat in the first battle will make the eastward campaign difficult."

Li Shimin stared at the map, frowning, even though Datang was so rich.

However, compared with the Sui army, the Tang army still lacked nearly half of the troops.

After all, it was the heyday of the Sui Dynasty.

However, every soldier of the Tang army is Li Shimin's heart and soul, and he will never act recklessly if he is not fully sure.

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "The defense of Liaodong City is strong, and Yuan Gai Suwen is a military genius. He will definitely come here in person. I am afraid that Liaodong City is a tough nut to crack."

Li Jing echoed: "But if we attack Liaodong City by force, we will suffer heavy losses. The general who defended Liaodong City was Ulji Wende, who was sinister and cunning. There were nearly 30 soldiers in the Sui Army, all of whom died here. in the conspiracy.

Relying on the Liaohe River, guarding the natural dangers, and resisting layer by layer, they stopped the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Sui Dynasty.

Then he repeatedly feigned surrender, playing with the Sui army between applause.With Yuangai Suwen and Ulji Wende, Liaodong City is as solid as gold. "

"Strong attack is definitely not enough." A cold light flashed in Li Chengqian's eyes: "My Tang Dynasty cannot bear the loss of strong attack. Liaodong City has been repaired several times, and it is already an impregnable wall. In this battle, we can only win by outsmarting, not by force."
