Li Shimin closed his eyes tiredly.
"Is there any news from over there?"
he asked suddenly.
Li Ji shook his head.
"No, it's too difficult to establish contact between us and the Grand Master. We can only rely on tacit understanding."
"However, the Aether Division's ability is estimated to have landed, but I don't know how long it will take to capture Pyongyang City."
Li Shimin nodded slightly.
He was still very relieved about Xu Fenglei.
"As long as he can capture Pyongyang, Anshi City will be like a piece of clay and can be easily destroyed."
He said in a deep voice,
"What we have to do now is to make the momentum even greater and force Quan Gaesumun to increase troops against Anshi City! In this way, Pyongyang will inevitably be empty, and the pressure on Ting Ming will be much less."
"Instruct the three armies to rest during the day and launch an attack on Anshi City at night!"
"In addition, I have a slope in the southeast of Anshi City. We can rely on this slope to build fortifications and build it higher than the city wall of Anshi! Then we can directly cross this slope and enter the city!"
"What do you think?"
Li Ji pondered for a moment.
"Your Majesty's strategy is feasible."
"It's just that this fortification is not easy to build. The walls of Anshi City are piled very high. If we have to level them or even cover them, we will almost have to build a mountain of earth!"
Li Shimin waved his hand.
"I don't care about that. There are 170,000 troops. Even if one person piles a piece of mud, they will all be piled on top!"
He said,
"Besides, didn't I bring Yan Lide with me?"
"Send the order and ask Li Daozong to dispatch troops and horses, with Yan Lide as the person in charge, to build this earth mountain for me!"
"According to the order." Li Ji responded and left.
But as soon as he went out, he turned back after a while.
"What else?"
Li Shimin rubbed his eyebrows.
He suddenly thought of the words of the Holy Patriarch Li Laojun: "The reason why I have a serious patient is because I have a body, and I don't have a body, so what trouble do I have?!"
This weak body cannot support my super strong mind...
"Your Majesty, the scouts are here to report that there is a Goguryeo army coming to support from the southeast. It is huge and may number one hundred thousand people!"
Li Ji reported, with a bit of excitement in his voice.
Li Shimin also raised his eyebrows.
Come to life!
If I can’t hit the turtle shell, I can’t hit you?
"They didn't enter the city from behind Anshi City, but instead came towards us?"
he asked.
"Yes, they seem to be cooperating with the defenders in Anshi City to attack our army!"
Li Ji smiled and said,
“I don’t know who the coming general is, how brave he is!”
"The combat power of the 170,000-strong army of the Tang Dynasty is beyond their imagination! If Anshi City hadn't been there, and we were facing a head-on battle, even if he had 400,000 or 500,000 troops, we would have been confident Total annihilation!”
The corners of Li Shimin's mouth also raised slightly.
"If you're not afraid of him coming, you're just afraid he won't come."
He said,
"You first arrange a guerrilla army to test and test, and promise defeat but not victory, and then attract the Goguryeo reinforcements."
"From my side, I will divide my troops and strangle him!"
"I want to eat this support army, and I must not let them enter Anshi City!"
…
Three days later.
Pyongyang City, in a palace as luxurious as a palace.
Izumi Suwen looked at the battle report, his face was livid and his fingers were trembling slightly.
In front of him, there were three people kneeling down with their buttocks sticking out high, looking terrified.
"asshole!"
"Gao Yanshou is a loser! What did he do? I gave him 80,000 troops and asked troops stationed along the way to assist. When he arrived in Anshi City, he already had more than 120,000 troops!"
Quan Gaisuwen was furious and shouted,
"Now you tell me, such an army was killed by the Tang people and abandoned their armor, with tens of thousands of casualties!"
"The casualties are just casualties. Gao Yanshou, the bastard, actually surrendered?!"
"He still had 70,000 to 80,000 troops in his hands, and he surrendered just like that?"
"I¥%......&*¥@#!!!"
Bang bang bang!
All the utensils on the table were smashed!
Quan Gaisuwen yelled all kinds of ugly curse words in his mouth, which made the three kneeling people sweat profusely and tremble even more.
"I asked you to come here to make you tremble!"
All three of them trembled, and one of them raised his head and said tremblingly:
"To answer your question... Gao Yanshou surrendered because he was surrounded by the despicable Tang army..."
"If he doesn't surrender, he will definitely be slaughtered by the Tang army..."
"so……"
boom!
Quan Gaisuwen kicked him in the stomach, making him groan in pain.
"I would rather he fight to the death and destroy all his troops!"
He said angrily,
"Surrender? What's this? Worse than the weakest rabbit!"
"You bastard, why did I choose such a bastard to be a general!"
At this moment, Izumi Izumi was already in a state of incompetence and rage.
An army of hundreds of thousands!
It just disappeared without a trace! It even became a vassal of the Tang Dynasty, which in turn made the war even more unfavorable!
If we fight to the death, we can at least consume the strength and vigor of the Tang army...
"Calm down your anger..."
The middle-aged man kneeling on the ground said,
"Fortunately, Liang Wanchun defended the city well and could not get out."
"Although the Tang army defeated Gao Yanshou, they may not be able to pass the test of Lord Liang Wanchun!"
"As long as Anshi City is not captured, we will not lose!"
After hearing these words, Quan Gaisuwen's expression softened a bit.
"Liang Wanchun... is indeed capable."
He said in a deep voice,
"When he refused to obey me, I couldn't force him from behind, so in the end I had to negotiate good terms with him."
"Now it seems that it doesn't matter if a capable person is a little arrogant."
"If we, Goguryeo, all have talents like Liang Wanchun, then why do we need to be afraid of the Tang army? Humph!"
The three people kneeling on the ground were silent and did not dare to say anything.
"As far as the current situation is concerned, as long as Anshi City is defended until winter, the Tang army will be short of supplies and unable to adapt to the severe cold in Liaodong, plus the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, so they will inevitably retreat!"
Quan Gaisu Wen said again,
“So, these few months are critical!”
"Have all the documents asking for reinforcements been sent out? What did the Khitan and the Capricorn King say?"
Among the three people, the one on the left said respectfully:
"If you tell me, they are willing to send troops, but the condition is that they double what you promised."
"Look..."
Quan Gaisuwen's face didn't look good.
"The lion opens his mouth!"
"The things promised to them were already very generous, but they were even doubled!"
"Why don't you just dump my whole country on them! Dogs did it..."
After a loud curse and emotional outburst, his expression returned.
"Promise them."
Quan Gaisu Wendao,
"As long as they are willing to send troops to rescue, I can agree to any conditions."
As the actual controller of Goguryeo, he naturally has two brushes and can distinguish between priorities.
It is naturally very heartbreaking to be robbed at this moment and have to cut off the flesh.
But he also knows the principle of "if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood". As long as the country is still there, everything will be easy.
If the country is gone, even if there are hundreds of millions of gold and silver, we will not be able to enjoy it.
"yes."
All three should claim to be so.
From the beginning to the end, their buttocks were stuck out high, and they didn't dare to let them down.
In the Tang Dynasty, whether it was ministers or common people, they only had to bow and salute when visiting the monarch.
But in Goguryeo, when a lower-ranking person meets a higher-ranking person, and when a junior meets an elder, they must kneel down and worship!
If the posture is not correct, it is disrespectful!
"Back off."
Quan Gaisuwen held his forehead and ordered,
"Gaozang, continue to monitor closely."
"Don't think about taking advantage of the civil unrest."
The three of them nodded repeatedly, then put their buttocks together and stepped back respectfully.
Silence returned to the room, and Quan Gaisuwen sat in front of the desk. His energy disappeared for a moment, and he fell into a deep state of exhaustion and worry.
"Tang Dynasty...Tang Dynasty..."
"Is the Tang Dynasty that powerful? Is Li Shimin that powerful?"
"Damn it...why do you have to..."
"well!"
With a creak, the door was pushed open.
Two maids came in and brought a basin of hot foot-washing water.
Quan Gaisuwen didn't even raise his eyes and allowed the maid to take off his shoes and socks and dip his feet into the barrel.
His attention at the moment was still entirely on the map on the desk, thinking about ways to break the situation.
Suddenly, a hot feeling exploded from the soles of his feet, making him almost jump with excitement!
"asshole!"
"Are you crazy! Why are you using such hot water? You have to..."
Uh-huh!
Before he could finish his words, a sharp dagger had already pierced his arm!
Without allowing him to scream, a ball of black cloth was quickly stuffed into his mouth, tightly!
A series of actions happened in the blink of an eye, so that Quan Gaisuwen was still in a state of confusion at this moment, and his head was completely unable to think!
He instinctively wanted to struggle, but he saw several black shadows rushing into the room and tying him up with hemp ropes!
In just a few seconds, Quan Gaisuwen had turned into a big rice dumpling.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
This time, he tried to struggle, but couldn't; even if he wanted to scream, he couldn't.
Completely turned into a ball of meat.
Da da.
There was a sound of gentle footsteps.
I saw a handsome, thin man walking into the house.
He was also holding a folding fan in his hand and looked carefree, as if he was shopping.
"Xu Gong!"
"General Manager!"
When everyone in the room saw him, they all knelt down on one knee and looked respectful.
Quan Gaisuwen looked at Xu Fenglei and his eyes widened.
He still can't think...but he knows that he has fallen into this person's hands!
"Tsk tsk..."
Xu Fenglei shook the folding fan and said with a smile,
"Intelligence infiltration is really scary!"
"As long as the intelligence is in place, you can even control the head of a country easily! I have seen it. In the future, if that girl wants to control a country's coup, it will be easy, right? As long as she wants to..."
From Namihu to Pyongyang, he really felt the power of the dark web.
Everywhere you go, there are people to pick you up, and there are thorough plans and routes!
It was connected all the way, and finally it actually led to Quan Gaisuwen's house! There were only a dozen people in the group, so they took advantage of the opportunity to wash his feet and captured it for him!
That's outrageous!
It's no wonder that even Li Shimin is afraid. Whoever controls such a force will have the ability to assassinate the head of a country!
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Quan Gaisuwen struggled hard.
His brain recovered from the shutdown, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Was it a coup launched by Gao Zang? !
impossible! His every move is under his own surveillance, how could he be so capable? He is just a pathetic puppet!
That……
The other party was talking about Tang Yan, could it be? !
The moment Izumigasu Wen thought about it, his scalp began to tingle...
"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet."
Xu Fenglei closed the door gently, sat next to Quangai Suwen, and said calmly,
"You must have a lot of doubts, so let me introduce myself first-"
"I am from the Tang Dynasty, and I am the chief military officer of the Pyongyang Road march appointed by His Majesty the Tang Emperor. My strategic goal is to lead the troops into Pyongyang and capture Quan Gaisuwen."
"It seems now that this mission was completed extremely smoothly, so smoothly that I feel a little bored, haha..."
Quan Gaisuwen stared at Xu Fenglei, struggling even more fiercely!
"be honest!"
The secret agent didn't tolerate him, so he directly gave Izumi Gaisuwen a big pussy!
Izumi Suwen: "!!!"
His face suddenly turned red!
After all these years, no one has dared to slap him!
"Be good and you will avoid a lot of suffering."
Xu Fenglei smiled and said,
"Now, your life is in my hands. If you cooperate, I can guarantee that you will not die."
"But if you resist my orders, I won't be lenient."
"I know you understand Tang Dynasty dialect. Now, I'll give you a chance. If you are willing to cooperate with me, just nod your head and I will loosen your restraints."
Quan Gaisuwen's eyes were red, still staring at Xu Fenglei, like a wood carving.
"Deaf!"
Feiyu said coldly,
"Mr. Xu is asking you something!"
boom!
He slapped Quan Gaisuwen on the other side of his face again.
Now it's good, both sides are symmetrical.
"Woo!"
Quan Gaisu Wen's eyes were about to burst, and he stared at Fei Yu as if he wanted to kill someone!
"What, you want to kill me?"
"Come on, come on, kill me and give you a chance?"
Feiyu put his face up and started to be mean.
Xu Fenglei buttoned his ears.
"I have never been patient with deaf people."
He said lightly,
"Take off his arm."
Uh-huh!
The soldier on the side showed his blade and slashed at Izumigasu Wen's shoulder without hesitation!
puff.
He raised the knife and dropped it, and a bloody arm fell out.
Quan Gaisuwen's whole face was twisted together, and his body fell to the ground, twitching in pain, like a live shrimp that had just been put into the oil pan!
With numb hands and feet, Shuiyun applied the hemostatic medicine he had prepared on Quan Gaisuwen's wound.
The efficiency of stopping bleeding is very high, and the feeling of the medicine is comparable to that of brutal torture...
"Woo!"
Izumi Suwen couldn't bear the extreme pain, rolled his eyes and fainted.
Xu Fenglei touched his nose and looked at the foot washing water aside. "Isn't this going to work? I thought he was so stubborn... Let him sober up."
he ordered.
All the soldiers and spies were trembling.
They have seen many people in trouble, but this is the first time they have seen this person with an unchanging expression and a calm demeanor!
This is a living king of hell!
