The plan was arranged, and the armies marched from Pyongyang to the battlefield under the leadership of their respective generals.
However, this time it was no longer Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde who were the vanguard, but Qin Qiong and Niu Jinda. Naturally, these two were overjoyed, while Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde looked unhappy.
But even so, the two were still unhappy with each other. In their opinion, if the other party hadn't followed to grab the vanguard position, they wouldn't have drawn lots, and naturally they wouldn't have been left hanging in the city. Look at people as vanguards killing generals and enemies.
Luo Zhang stood beside the two of them, looking at the two angry people, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"Luo Zhang, why are you laughing? Are we funny?" Cheng Yaojin rolled his eyes.
"That's right, are you gloating that we didn't become the vanguard?" Yuchi Jingde rarely stood on the same front as Cheng Yaojin.
Luo Zhang chuckled and said: "Two veteran generals, why should the army be dejected? Isn't it Silla and Baekje, these two small countries are enough to fill the gap between your teeth?"
"You are people who fight in war. How can you two generals be used in such a small scene?"
"As the saying goes, a good sword is used at critical moments. You are good swordsmen, how can you attack easily?"
"You are the treasure of my country, the Tang Dynasty. Just leave these small countries to Niu Jinda and the others. There will be many big battles waiting for you in the future!"
After hearing Luo Zhang's special consolation, the two of them felt much better, and even felt a little complacent.
Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly and said: "That's right. A small country like Silla and Baekje is not worthy of me to take action. If we want to fight, we have to fight Tibet. Only such a big country is worthy of me to take action!"
"That's right, Silla, Baekje, we don't care, just give Niu Jinda a beating." Yuchi Jingde said immediately.
"Besides, they are just the vanguard. We still have to follow up. If they are in a tight situation, they will still have to rely on us!" Luo Zhang said again.
"That's right, if they can't resist, we still have to get there. I'll go get ready right now and follow behind later!" With that said, Cheng Yaojin got off the city wall and went to find his own team.
Yuchi Jingde was naturally not willing to lag behind and followed him down the city wall.
For Luo Zhang, this battle was not worth mentioning at all, and there was no need to use his artillery. To think about it, using the strength of the Tang army to annihilate two clowns was just like playing for fun.
Luo Zhang was worried about Su Wen Gaiyuan. There was still no news. This made Luo Zhang feel a little doubtful. The main reason was that they received the news too late and had no idea where Su Wen Gaiyuan was running. No matter how prepared you are, if he really escapes, it will be a big disaster in the future.
Luo Zhang said the same thing in the main hall, but it was just to stabilize the morale of the army. Only he knew the specific situation.
Of course, he had already explained this to Li Jing. If he didn't talk to Li Jing, he wouldn't be able to bear it if something happened.
One day later, news came from the front that the armies of Silla and Baekje had fought with the vanguard of the Tang army led by Qin Qiong and Niu Jinda.
Not to mention, these two countries are very powerful and actually withstood the first wave of attacks from Niu Jinda and Qin Qiong. The two sides are now in a confrontation after a day of fighting.
After a day of fighting, Silla and Baekje sent special envoys to Pyongyang City. Their purpose of coming was self-evident, that is, they wanted to pray for peace, or to surrender to the Tang Dynasty.
They probably didn't expect that the Tang Army would occupy Pyongyang City so quickly, causing their plan to fail. Instead of a mantis stalking the cicada and an oriole behind, they fought the Tang Army head-on.
Although they withstood the first wave of attacks by the Tang Army, they also knew that this was just the vanguard of the Tang Army. If they waited for the real main force of the Tang Army to arrive, their defeat would be a matter of time. And the consequences of the defeat, think about it with your head. They knew that the country was in danger of being destroyed. The lessons learned from Gaogouli were still there. They did not want to be destroyed, so surrendering to the Tang Dynasty was naturally their first choice.
If they think about it, they will surrender to the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty will naturally accept it happily. No one will want to fight, and surrendering is also a very honorable thing for the Tang Dynasty.
However, what they didn't know was that Baekje's strategic policy on how to deal with Silla had been set a day ago, and they would never be allowed to surrender.
What Silla and Baekje could think of, Luo Zhang, Li Jing and the others could not imagine. Who would have the time to go back and forth on Liaodong Island, so everyone agreed with Luo Zhang's opinion to solve the matter of Liaodong Island once and for all. If another group of Tang people migrate here, it is feared that this place will be truly occupied by the Han in a few decades.
