After meeting Zhao Wu, Li Shiji arranged him in another direction, and then brought over Sun Daiyin, the guard of Liaodong City.
"I've met General Li and all the generals." After entering the camp, Sun Daiyin was honest and saluted everyone.
Li Shiji did not let the soldiers tie him up at all.
Moreover, from the time they surrendered in the city until the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty gathered them and evacuated them to the prisoner camp outside the city, the Tang Dynasty was very polite to all the soldiers.
"General Sun is so polite. I would like to thank General Sun here. If General Sun had not understood the righteousness, there would have been many casualties in the battle between the two armies." Li Shiji said with a smile, "The people and soldiers of Goguryeo should I’m grateful to have a leader like you, General.”
"The general is joking, and he is not afraid of the general's jokes. If I can win the fight, or even draw, maybe I won't surrender." Sun Daiyin said with a wry smile.
"Isn't this what the world is like? But there are also many people who don't understand the situation clearly." Li Shiji smiled and said, "But since General Sun can see the situation clearly, I have a problem here. I don't know General Sun. Now that Tang has captured Liaodong City, can he capture other cities along the entire Liaodong front line?"
Sun Daiyin paused for a moment, is this question still relevant? In the entire Liaodong front line, Liaodong City is the top priority. Regardless of the city walls, logistical supplies, and the eliteness of the troops stationed there, it is the strongest among the entire Liaodong front line.
Even a city like this can't last even one day, let alone those other small cities? Many other small cities don't even have an urn or the like. If the Tang Dynasty inserted that kind of divine thunder directly into the city gate, the final result is needless to say.
Who can resist such an army?
"The general already knows this question well, why bother asking me." Sun Daiyin shook his head helplessly.
"Of course there is a reason why I asked General Sun, because the reason why the Tang Dynasty conquered Goguryeo was because many kings and nobles of Goguryeo were unruly and needed stability on the frontier, so the Tang Dynasty took this action."
"But in the conquest of Goguryeo, I, the Tang Dynasty, do not want to cause more killings. Just as His Highness, King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, said, it will be painful for the people to prosper, and it will be painful for the people to die. If the scale of the war expands, it will still be the people who will be unlucky in the end."
"If we, the Tang Dynasty, really want to cause chaos in Goguryeo, we can send cavalry to harass all the grain-producing areas in Goguryeo. If we don't withdraw our troops even this summer, how many people will be left alive here in autumn and winter?"
"But most of the unlucky ones are ordinary people, so in order to prevent as many people from being harmed as possible, I have a merciless request." Li Shiji said with a smile.
"I am willing to cooperate." Sun Daiyin said helplessly.
"Oh, General Sun understands what I'm talking about?" Li Shiji said with a smile.
"I will cooperate with the Tang army to persuade other city defenders to surrender, but I cannot guarantee that the other defenders will completely listen to me. Especially since I am a prisoner of the Tang Dynasty, they may not be willing to listen to me. Alternatively, you can give me five Qian Tang soldiers, let me pretend to be the defeated army, enter other cities, and capture them directly." Since he surrendered, Sun Daiyin has no moral integrity.
Just like what Li Shiji said, if you have reached this point, why are you pretending?
"That's no need. Entering the city disguised as surrendering troops will inevitably cause casualties. If they don't want to, they can just blow the city gate open." Li Shiji shook his head.
If they pretend to be surrendering troops and enter the city, the enemy will definitely resist with all their strength under stress. Since they are pretending, they must be wearing Goguryeo armor. With the level of their armor, Datang's biggest advantage is gone.
In that case, the casualties of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would probably be considerable. Rather than doing so, it would be better to blow open the city gate directly.
As long as the city gate is blown open, and with the cooperation of Sun Daiyin, the highest official in Liaodong, the probability of the enemy surrendering is extremely high, unless they encounter someone who is very stubborn, but there are not many such people.
"Yes, I will obey General Li's orders." Sun Daiyin said it didn't matter, just do whatever you ask me to do.
"General Yuchi." Li Shiji said.
"Here." Yuchi Gong stood up.
"Please lead 10,000 cavalry, accompanied by Sun Daiyin and several other generals from Liaodong City. Starting from Gaimu City, Xuantu City and other cities in the north, cooperate with the troops besieging these cities and capture these cities one by one. We have enough time. After we have completely captured Liaodong City, we can then consider other things." Li Shiji said.
"Yes!" Yuchi Gong said directly.
When Yuchi Gong led Sun Daiyin and other Liaodong City generals to other cities, the political commissars of the Tang Dynasty had already started taking action simultaneously around Liaodong City.
Prisoner of war camp.
When they entered the prisoner camp on the first day, the Goguryeo soldiers, who had removed all their weapons and armor, looked a little confused. They didn't know what their future was.
Is it possible to go to Datang to build certain projects? Or build a mausoleum for His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Isn’t that what history books say? Isn’t that what those prisoners did?
But what else can they do now? The Tang Dynasty was so powerful that they had no idea of resistance.
What they didn't expect was that after they entered the prisoner camp, the first batch of soldiers from the Tang Dynasty were actually soldiers with white cloths on their arms and a red gourd painted on the white cloth.
After these soldiers came in, they came directly to the injured soldiers. When these soldiers took out clean bandages and some special medicinal materials and began to treat the injuries of these wounded soldiers, these soldiers fell silent.
Especially those snow-white, specially protected bandages, which were wrapped around the wounds of the wounded soldiers who had been cleaned with some spirits and then sprinkled with medicine. They didn't know how to describe their feelings.
Because Goguryeo's own soldiers were injured, they had never used such luxurious bandages. At most, they were wrapped in some tattered linen cloth. If they could survive, they would survive. If they couldn't survive, they would die.
But when these Tang soldiers treated their wounds, the surrounding Goguryeo soldiers watched. They treated the wounds carefully and cleanly.
There is even a lot of dirt around the wounds of some soldiers, because most people in Goguryeo only take a few baths a year, and they basically don’t take baths in winter, so there are naturally all kinds of dirt on their bodies.
But none of the Tang soldiers had any objections to the dirt. They just silently cleaned it with water, then used a strong liquor to clean and treat the wounds again, then applied medicine, and finally bandaged them.
For some large wounds, they could even give them some anesthetic, then sew them up directly with needles and thread, and then apply the medicine.
They treated some seriously injured soldiers.
And these seriously injured soldiers in Goguryeo... almost only had the most basic bandaging, and then they waited to die.
All the Goguryeo soldiers watched as these Tang soldiers treated the wounds of all the wounded soldiers before leaving silently. After they left, someone actually brought specially cooked meat porridge and other food to these wounded soldiers.
For a moment, they were all confused and delusional. Are they prisoners, or are they members of the Tang Dynasty?
