Chapter 1059 Before returning to China

In fact, it is true that a hundred thousand troops cannot be washed away by a flood. In fact, less than one-tenth of them died in the water.

But fighting is not calculated based on numbers. Death of 10,000 people is indeed nothing to an army of 400,000, but who can guarantee that the guys who survived the surging waves can really continue to go to the battlefield?

After a defeat, even his general died in the water. How could the soldiers have no idea? The morale is still as high as they were at the beginning?

In ancient times, when fighting wars, I always heard that hundreds of people chased after tens of thousands of people. Why is this? It’s not because of morale. The army that has never been morale has never been used, not to mention fighting, even robbery is probably ineffective.

It is precisely because of this that Gao Zangwu and Quan Gai Suwen are so depressed. They all know that those 100,000 people have been abandoned, and the soldiers have no intention of fighting, and they will not be able to fight. If they are asked to go to the battlefield to face Li Chengqian's Liaodong Legion, they may be the first time these soldiers will mutiny.

What to do? What to do? Even the experienced veteran general Yizhi Wende died, not clear, not clear, and died without even seeing the enemy!

Although the old guy's death is probably because he can't figure it out for a moment, he dies, and who cares about what you are doing. Anyway, the account will be settled on Li Chengqian.

"Mo Lizhi, tell me, should you still fight?" Gao Zangwu was now cowardly, and he was afraid that he would have changed his mind when talking about Tang. If it weren't for the fact that the sending of troops was the result of the mutual compromise between major families, I'm afraid he had already submitted a letter of surrender to Li Chengqian.

"It must be fought." Quan Gai Suwen said hatred: "Your Majesty, things have come to this point. Even if we don't want to fight, can Li Chengqian let us go? What they are fighting is the battle to destroy the country. Even if we surrender, we will still be dead in the end!"

Gao Zangwu stopped talking and began to think about the correctness of Quan Gai Suwen's words.

Seeing that Gao Zangwu was not speaking, Quangasuwen continued, "Your Majesty, why are you still hesitating? But don't believe me? Think about what the outcome of the Turkic Khan, think about what the outcome of the Tubo Zampu, don't you understand what the outcome of our success after surrender?"

"After all, they were the first to invade the Tang Dynasty. We..." Gao Zangwu said hesitantly.

"So what? Just from the personal expedition of the Tang Dynasty and the personal expedition of the crown prince, we can see that the Tang Dynasty must destroy my Great Goguryeo and then go fast! Silla, Baekje and the others only want to regain their own territory at most, but the Tang Dynasty is not. The Tang Dynasty is going to destroy the country, Your Majesty!" Quangasuwen looked at Gao Zangwu, and wanted to chop his head with a knife.

When is it that I still want to surrender, and I don’t think about the current situation that can be solved by surrender?

I hope that the prince of the Tang Dynasty would let go of the fat meat in his mouth? How is this possible!

Who doesn’t know how famous and merit the Battle of Destruction will be? Under such temptation, Li Chengqian would not agree to the request for Goguryeo to surrender as long as he was not stupid.

It is even possible that he accepted surrender on the surface, but turned his face and sold Goguryeo.

After all, judging from the rumors outside, that guy Li Chengqian is simply a cold-blooded butcher who is untrustworthy and unrighteous, and it is not surprising that he did anything.

"Then what you mean is to continue fighting with Li Chengqian and find an opportunity to fight him?" Gao Zangwu asked knowingly.

"Yes, your Majesty, this battle must be fought no matter what. One of Li Chengqian and Goguryeo must fall first before the war will end." Quan Gai Suwen said in a deep voice.

"Oh..." Gao Zangwu sighed after a while and asked hesitantly: "How likely do you think we are to join forces with Silla and Baekje to fight against the Tang Dynasty?"

"Contact Silla and Baekje!" Quan Gai Suwen's eyes lit up. He never expected that in his opinion, Gao Zangwu, who seemed useless, would have such political awareness and such a method.

"Yes, contact Silla and Baekje, we can promise to return the land that occupied them to them, but they need to unite with us to fight against the Tang Dynasty." As the saying goes, if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to get through. After being forced to a dead end, Gao Zangwu's mind suddenly became much better.

"Yes, Your Majesty's plan is so good. We can completely treat Silla and Baekje's pain and cold lips. If my Goguryeo was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, then it is very likely that the Tang Dynasty will attack them in the next step." Others who had not spoken were also enlightened and followed suit.

Gao Zangwu's words seemed to open a window in the sealed room, causing everyone who was about to die of suffocate to come up with them desperately. Everyone was expressing their opinions, but without exception, they all expressed their support for Gao Zangwu's decision.

After making a decision, the next thing became much simpler. The envoy selected to take Gao Zangwu's new book and rushed back overnight, striving to negotiate a cooperation plan with Silla and Baekje before the decisive battle with the Tang army.

Just as everyone in Goguryeo discussed Lianheng's plan to compete with Li Zaiqian's Liaodong Legion, His Royal Highness the Prince of the Tang Dynasty also completed the landing with his troops and arrived at the east coast of Yalu River.

"Uncle Daozong Wang, the Liaodong Legion will be handed over to you in the future. Unless it is absolutely impossible, you must not let it fight against Goguryeo!" After landing and rolling the camp, Li Chengqian also received a recall imperial edict from Chang'an. Although he was unwilling to accept it, he still honestly handed over the power of the military to Li Daozong.

"Don't worry, after such a long time, even if Uncle Wang is stupid, he will know that your Liaodong Legion is different from the Sixteen Guards. He will not let them fight against Goguryeo." Li Daozong suppressed his excitement and agreed seriously.

In half a year, all I heard and watched were all unexpected manifestations of the Liaodong Legion. It would be nonsense to say that Li Daozong did not want to lead such an army to fight a few battles.

The Liaodong Legion is not the Sixteen Guards or ordinary government troops. This is the essence of Prince Li Chengqian’s Sixth Route. Whether it is equipment or morale, it is the highest in the entire army.

As a general, who doesn’t want to lead the strongest army? Who doesn’t want to make achievements? Goguryeo currently has very little troops left. As long as one or two more battles are fought, a battle to destroy the country can be completed. Can Li Daozong be unhappy?

However, just as Li Daozong was excited and ready to beat his hands, Li Chengqian suddenly asked: "Did Uncle Wang ever think of Silla and Baekje?"

"Silla, Baekje? What do you mean?" Li Daozong was stunned for a moment.

"I mean, Uncle Wang feels that after defeating Goguryeo, Silla and Baekje still need to exist? How can you allow others to sleep soundly on your side of the bed!"
