Because the Japanese army had been driven away by the Tang Dynasty.
Jin Rongxin and Kinderman also returned to Jincheng smoothly.
I learned that they were both back.
Jin Baijing also came out to greet him personally.
This was mainly because Jin Baijing thought Li Chengqian would come with him.
Unexpectedly, only the two of them came back.
Jin Baijing couldn't help but ask: "Where is King Qin of the Tang Dynasty? Isn't he the leader of the army this time? Didn't he come with him?"
Kinderman shook his head slightly and said, "He led the army to pursue the Japanese army."
"ah?"
Jin Baijing looked puzzled and said: "He...he is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, how can he lead the army himself?"
Although I have heard of Li Chengqian’s legendary achievements.
But he still didn't quite believe it.
He felt that it was fake news released by Li Shimin.
He was just bragging to others that he had a great son.
After all, Li Chengqian was born in the royal family and was pampered since childhood. How could he be as brave and invincible as the rumors say?
And heard what the father said.
Kinderman couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Of course she knew what her father was thinking.
Because she thought so at the beginning.
But what about after meeting Li Chengqian?
She was completely frightened by Li Chengqian.
But facing her father, she naturally couldn't say much.
She said bluntly: "This trip to the Tang Dynasty really touched my daughter a lot. We in Silla are so far apart from the Tang Dynasty. It is simply a world of difference."
"yes."
Jin Baijing also said: "After all, they are a kingdom in heaven, and their land area is much larger than ours."
"It's more than that."
“They are really talented people.”
"Even if he is an ordinary pawn, he will be able to become a general when we arrive in Silla."
Thinking of the bravery of Qianzi Camp and Zuo Yiwei, Kinderman's face became even worse.
At first, she only thought that the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were stronger than the Silla people because they had fought more battles.
But now that I think about it, she was really too naive.
Not to mention those Mo Dao soldiers carrying long swords and wearing heavy armor.
Just talking about Zuo Yiwei and Qianziying, their soldiers are definitely not able to resist.
Two thousand people can kill the Japanese soldiers like a massacre until they are unable to fight back.
It seems like the gap between adults beating children, so how can it be made up by land area?
And seeing this expression on my daughter.
Jin Baijing said bluntly: "Daughter, even if the Tang Dynasty has a strong military, you will not look down on yourself so much."
"Okay, you have worked hard all the way. Come back to the palace with me, and I will take care of you."
Kinderman nodded slightly, said nothing, and followed his father away.
Jin Rongxin in the back looked stupid.
Where does he still look like a high-spirited major general now?
This trip to Datang really completely shattered his self-confidence.
Most of this came from the pressure given to him by Li Chengqian.
The military power of the Tang Dynasty was really too strong, even to a terrifying level.
At the beginning, he felt that even if there was a big gap between Silla and Datang, they were still capable of fighting.
At the very least, he could tear off a piece of flesh from Datang's body.
But now he realized that he really thought too much.
When Datang fought with them, they were afraid that even their soldiers would be wiped out by those artillery pieces and crossbows if they couldn't even get close to the opponent's formation.
However, this did not make him hesitate for too long.
When he reached the entrance of the palace, his eyes showed a fierce look again.
Jin Rongxin clenched his fist fiercely and said to himself: "What the Tang Dynasty can have, we can also have."
…
The other side.
In order to fulfill Li Chengqian's promise to annihilate the Japanese army.
After making simple adjustments, the entire army of the Tang Dynasty began to pursue the Japanese army along the way.
In fact, Datang is already very familiar with this aspect of business.
After all, most of those who followed Li Chengqian were veterans of the Bingzhou Army and the Liangzhou Army.
These guys have been following Li Chengqian for the longest time, and they basically fight this kind of battle.
First, give the opponent a head-on blow, and then pursue the opponent when they flee.
However, this Silla territory is really not a place for people.
There were mountains, rivers and ravines everywhere, and it was impossible to transport grain, grass, supplies and heavy equipment in the end.
Even Mo Daobing could no longer participate in the pursuit.
There was no other way, Li Chengqian could only let Changsun Chong take Mo Daobing back the way they came.
And he himself continued to pursue northward with the remaining soldiers lightly armed.
This day.
They entered a mountain range again.
Gao Zhixing urged his horse to come to Li Chengqian and said: "How long do we have to chase him?"
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes and said, "Don't we wait and see when they will be completely wiped out?"
"Total annihilation?"
Gao Zhixing's face was filled with helplessness.
He said: "But now the posture of the Japanese army is very obvious. They intend to detour all the way north to the border between Goryeo Road and Silla."
"Build a stronghold somewhere, wait for the Japanese pirate ship to arrive, and then board the ship and leave."
Hear the words.
Li Chengqian nodded and said, "That's right."
"So my purpose is to eliminate them all before they reach their destination."
He said it was an understatement.
But it would be a bit silly to say this to Gao Zhixing.
Gao Zhixingzhi said: "I said your kid can stand and talk without back pain, right?"
"Do you think you can say something just by touching your upper lip to your lower lip?"
"I can tell you that our entire army is filled with resentment right now."
"Originally, we were not fighting for our own country, and now we have to go through such a long journey to pursue the enemy. This is simply abusing ourselves."
Gao Zhixing said: "We can stop when enough is enough. They won't be able to make any waves anyway."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian's eyes couldn't help but narrow.
He said: "Why, judging from what my cousin means, your complaints are not small."
"yes."
"I have complaints too."
"It makes no sense for me to come all the way from the Central Plains to this place, and even across the mountains and plains."
"Do you think I might not have any resentment for acting like this?"
Gao Zhixing looked straight at Li Chengqian and said, "And I told you, now the people under my command are also boiling with resentment, and I can't suppress it at all."
"Can't hold it down?"
"Then think of those Silla villages that were destroyed by Japanese pirates."
Li Chengqian said straight to Gao Zhixing: "The Japanese pirates are like a group of dogs. If we don't beat them until they feel hurt and scared, sooner or later they will attack us, Datang."
"Do we have to wait until that time to pursue them on the land of Datang?"
"Today they are harming the people of Silla, and in the future they will harm the people of Tang Dynasty."
"Do you have to wait until that time before you tell me that this battle is meaningful?"
Li Chengqian was too lazy to talk nonsense with Gao Zhixing.
He said bluntly: "You take whoever wants to leave. At worst, I will chase him myself."
Li Chengqian's attitude was very determined.
The purpose is to completely wipe out the Japanese pirates on the land of Silla.
Only in this way can he feel at ease.
Seeing him like this, Gao Zhixing couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "You have to lose all the reputation you have accumulated so hard..."
