The First Family of Tang Dynasty

Just when the people in Liaodong were still admiring the pile of potatoes that looked like a hill.

Cheng Sanlang has already found a messenger, and solemnly handed over the letter he wrote to the other party.

After thinking about it, he took another five catties of potatoes and put them in the hands of the messenger, telling him to do whatever he wanted.

They must deliver the potatoes and the letter of victory that they entrusted to His Majesty as quickly as possible.

After the equally excited messenger took the letter of good news and the bag of potatoes that hadn't even been washed off the soil, he strode to his mount, jumped on it, and galloped away.

Cheng Sanlang looked at this buddy's back, with a smug and mischievous smile on his face.

I don't know, the old man still has those civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty who accompanied the army.

If he knew the good news brought by Liaodong Prefecture, how would he behave?

Thinking of those famous generals of the Tang Dynasty who were of the same generation as their own fathers, they were so shocked that they were indescribably exaggerated.

There are also those civil servants who are most particular about appearance and demeanor, one by one, the surprised expressions of one or two slanted eyes, tsk tsk...Thinking about it, Cheng Sanlang felt that the idea was very sensible.

I just don't know if everyone will be overwhelmed with joy because of the astonishing amount of yield per mu.

Hmm... It's not impossible, but my father-in-law has nitroglycerin lozenges anyway.

Anyway, I reminded my father-in-law in the letter of Baojie that before reading the news, I should take a tablet first to avoid tachycardia and high blood pressure.

As the saying goes, do not say that you are not predictable. As a good and understanding son-in-law, I have dutifully reminded you.

In case you didn't listen and just smoked, then you can't blame me afterwards, after all, the warning words in the Baojie letter are physical evidence.

On the east bank of the Yalu River, rest and reorganize the army, plus waiting for logistics, and conducting detailed and careful detection of the strongholds controlled by the enemy.

Finally, everything is ready, and the east wind has blown.

In less than three days, Tang Jun even took the two fortresses that the Goguryeo people hastily built on the east bank of the Yalu River.

At this moment, His Majesty the Great Tang Emperor, who is wise and mighty, is sitting in the hall of one of the fortresses.

A huge sand table has also been placed in the center of the hall.

At this moment, the mountains, rivers, and cities to the east of Yalushui are all on the sand table.

Ever since the boy Cheng Sanlang came up with such a good baby, the production of the sand table has become more and more professional.

It can be said that if you use the size to measure the distance between those cities, you can get the approximate actual distance between the cities, and the error will not exceed five miles.

In the past, even if there was a Seiko full-hand version of the military map, it would not be able to perfectly display the real topography in front of people.

At this moment, Li Shimin saw that all the civil and military officials had rushed to the back of the hall. Clearing his throat, he stood up and walked to the huge sand table.

"Our army captured two fortresses in three days, causing the Goguryeo army's morale to fluctuate. Next..."

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!..." At this moment, there were repeated calls from outside the big tent.

This made Li Shimin, who was interrupted, frowned displeasedly, raised his eyelids and looked towards the door.

He saw the general in charge of cavalry scouting quickly enter the hall, saluted Li Shimin respectfully, and eagerly reported.

"Your Majesty, all the fortresses in Goguryeo are hung with white flags, and even the Goguryeo soldiers who guard the city are all plain."

"In addition, the last general met a Goguryeo soldier and horse with an entire army, and escorted a Goguryeo envoy to come to see His Majesty..."

"Here, what's going on here?"

"Could it be that Yuan Gai Suwen committed suicide knowing that he was defeated by Tang Tianwei?"

"Could it be that he died of illness? If that guy committed suicide, why wait until now?"

Li Shimin heard the whispers of the officials, so he could only stop the military discussion, straighten his clothes, and flick his sleeves.

"Let's go, I want to see what Yuan Gai Suwen wants to do."

After a short time, Li Shimin saw the Goguryeo envoy standing under the steps.

The envoy's head was also wrapped with a white gauze, and when he saw Li Shimin's arrival, he fell to the ground in fear.

"My ministers see His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

"Why are you dressed up like this?" Li Shimin asked coldly as he stood on the steps with his hands behind his back.

I saw the white-haired Goguryeo envoy's eyes turn red instantly, and his voice choked up.

"Your Majesty Qizuo, my king was murdered by a treacherous minister in the palace of Pyongyang, the capital of the country, three days ago. He was seriously injured and died. He is already dead..."

"...Caught by treacherous ministers? Died?" Li Shimin looked at the tearful Goguryeo envoy with a dazed expression on his face.

No, the biggest treacherous official in Goguryeo shouldn't be Yuan Gaisuwen who treats the lord of Goguryeo as nothing?

All the civil and military men of the Tang Dynasty are also a little confused, what's going on? There is a war here, and then the ruler of the enemy country suddenly uh fart.

The problem is that your country lord is uh fart, uh fart, what do you mean by jumping over to report?

What's the matter, do you still want me, Datang, to send you some bliss money?

"Your Majesty, this is my Goguryeo Damo Lizhi, and I asked my ministers to forward to Your Majesty the memorial..."

"Please surrender?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, glanced at the corner of his eyes, and Zhao Kun strode to the steps beside him, picked up the booklet and flipped through it.

After making sure that there were no hidden weapons or messy things in this thing, I returned to the steps and handed it to Li Shimin respectfully.

Li Shimin took the memorial, read it carefully, then raised his hand and handed it to Ma Zhou beside him.

Looking at this Goguryeo envoy who quietly worshiped under the steps, he couldn't help feeling a little toothache. He never expected that such a thing would happen.

It turned out that Gao Zang, the lord of Goguryeo, was killed by treacherous officials in Pyongyang City. Today, Goguryeo is in turmoil in the country.

If at this time ~www.NovelMTL.com~ continues to raise troops to conquer Goguryeo regardless, it is not impossible.

But the problem is that Li Shimin was in a dilemma when such a letter of request was handed over.

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a headache, so Ma Zhou also felt a big headache after reading the memorial.

After all, although Datang is now attacking Goguryeo, the enemy country has already asked to surrender, so shouldn't the attack be stopped?

Waiting for the opponent to voluntarily surrender, but there is a problem.

The lord of the opposing party was err, so, Yuan Gai Suwen asked Datang to temporarily stop marching.

Let them Goguryeo hold a funeral for the lord, and by the way, a new king must be elected, and then the new king will come to ask Datang to surrender.

How should I put it, Goguryeo's doing this is a matter of procedure, and it is also in line with the rules.

If the Tang Dynasty continued to launch a crusade at this time, it would be a bit out of date if it fell into the eyes of many Tibetan countries in the Tang Dynasty.
