Liu Rengui and others led the advance troops of the Eastern Expedition Army to urgently rush to assist Sima Jiong, Cheng Chuliang and others.

When they arrived at the waters near Baijiangkou, they met the messenger sent by Wang Jue. When Liu Rengui heard about the feats of Sima Jiong and others, he simply stopped to wait for Wang Jue and others to prepare to land from Baijiangkou with them. At the same time, he sent someone to report the situation of Baekje to King Li You of Qi.

During this period, Liu Rengui and others were not idle either. They divided the fleet into more than a dozen ships and searched for Baekje ships along the coastline. All merchant ships were detained, and warships were directly sunk.

Cheng Chuliang led 6,000 Tang troops and 50,000 BJI troops to Jiuzhixiacheng, an important town in southern Baekje. Along the way, they sent many BJI surrendered troops to mobilize the people to join the war, and the people responded one after another.

After Cheng Chuliang and others arrived at Jiuzhixia City, the number of troops had reached 80,000.

Chang Gao Yuanhan, the governor of Jiuzhixiacheng who had received a letter from Yan Changhan, did not send troops out of the city to fight the Tang army. The Tang army immediately surrounded Jiuzhixiacheng.

Sima Jiong, who accompanied Yan Changhan, reached an agreement with Chang Gaoyuanhan on the top of the city under the city and opened the city to surrender.

The Tang army stayed in Jiuzhixia City for three days, reorganized the troops and supplemented supplies. When the army set out again, the number of people had reached 140,000.

Li You, Hou Junji and Zhang Liang rode the Tang Dynasty's first first-class sail battleship "Luoyang", and headed straight to Baijiangkou with a huge fleet that transported 40,000 Tang troops.

The reason why the Tang army chose Baijiangkou was that in history, Liu Rengui defeated the joint fleet of Baekje and the Japanese Kingdom at Baijiangkou, and then landed here to destroy Baekje.

When formulating the combat plan, Li You specifically emphasized that he would land here and directly attack the capital of the Baekje people, Jubacheng.

On the way, he met the messenger sent by Liu Rengui.

After reading Liu Rengui's letter, Li You smiled and said, "Duke Chen, Lord Shangshu, please take a look."

After reading the letter, Hou Junji smiled and said, "These monkeys dare to compete with me for me. I don't want to deal with them. Hahaha."

After reading the letter, Zhang Liang smiled and said, "Your Highness, your subordinates are extraordinary. This battle is really unbelievable. Just a few thousand troops and a few thousands of navy, they actually went to attack the capital of the Baekje people.

Great, amazing.”

Hou Junji smiled and said, "Your Highness, I suggest that you speed up the marching as soon as possible, otherwise you will not even be able to drink the soup."

Zhang Liang said, "Your Highness, do you want to send a messenger to report the situation here to Your Majesty?"

Li You shook his head and said, "No hurry, it's not too late to report after you conquer Baekje."

The capital of Baekje is located in Baekje, the palace.

King Wu Fuyu Huai never dreamed that the situation would change so quickly. Not long ago, he sent a large army to attack Silla with a arrogant attitude, but in a blink of an eye, the Tang army was about to attack his capital.

What is particularly infuriating is that there are so many traitors among the Baekje people. He was puzzled. In the past, people in Baekje were very obedient, but why did they suddenly become so bold and dare to rebel?

In fact, this is not difficult to understand. The contradiction between the ruling class of Baekje and the people is extremely profound. In the past, the people did not dare to resist because the army and the regime were in the hands of the nobles.

Now it’s different. With the support of the extremely powerful Tang Dynasty, the long-standing repressed anger finally erupted.

Bad news comes one after another. Among the five important military cities, Guangzhou City, Jiuzhixia City and Xiongjin City fell into the hands of the Tang army, and the governor of Gusha City also kept his troops waiting and watching. The dignified King of Baekje was the only one who could mobilize Daoxian City on the west and the troops from the capital city Jubacheng.

After discussing with the ministers, King Wu Fuyuhuai decided to transfer the 100,000 troops sent to attack Silla to defend the capital Jubacheng.

Silla capital Jincheng.

Not long ago, Silla resisted step by step under the attack of the Goguryeo and the Baekje people, and suffered heavy losses.

When Silla Queen Jin Deman saw the Tang Dynasty envoy Wang Xuance, she kept begging the Tang army to speed up the marching and came to support her quickly.

Wang Xuance negotiated with Queen Jin Deman and asked her to prepare 200,000 dan of food and 500,000 dan of military expenses for Tang Jun. Queen Jin Deman agreed at the time.

Soon after, the situation changed and the Baekje army withdrew. Seeing this, the Goguryeo stopped attacking.

Wang Xuance urged Queen Jindeman to fulfill his promise, pay military expenses, and send the food to the Tang Army Base in Jeolla County. Queen Jindeman said she would go and do it as soon as possible.

Wang Xuance waited for three days, but still didn't see a penny. He immediately went to ask for the Queen Jin Deman.

Jincheng, Silla Palace.

"Sir Tang, my Queen is in poor health these days and cannot receive you for the time being. Please forgive me." The fat Prime Minister of Silla said with a smile on his face.

Wang Xuance is a cruel person. He said, "It doesn't matter if your Queen's health is not good, I will not see her anymore. But what about the military expenses and food you promised to give? Is Her Majesty the Queen sick, and these things don't count?"

"This? Her Majesty the Queen nodded in this matter. But His Majesty was not in good health. I couldn't see her and could not handle this matter for the time being." The Prime Minister said with a smile.

"Hahahaha." Wang Xuance burst into laughter and said, "Just just say it straight. You want to pay the debt, okay. But don't regret it. When I report this to Your Highness, the consequences may not be something you can bear. Say goodbye."

Wang Xuance bowed his hand and turned around and left.

Seeing Wang Xuance leaving, the prime minister asked to see Queen Jin Deman and said, "Your Majesty, Envoy Tang is gone, but it can be seen that he is very angry. There will be no trouble, right?"

Jin Deman smiled and said, "What trouble can you have? I have written a letter to them, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, asking him to waive these fees for the sake of our country's weakness. In the letter, I sincerely requested, and I think His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will not refuse my request."

Jin Deman has some research on Li Shimin and knows that His Majesty, the emperor, has a high opinion of himself and will not care about such small things.

Just say that the Tang Dynasty sent troops this time, the amount of food and military expenditure was huge. The 200,000 yuan of food and grass and 500,000 jin of military expenditure was not worth mentioning to the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin really would not turn against Silla for this little thing.

The prime minister said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the Tang envoy mentioned His Highness the King of Qi of the Tang Dynasty. Would he be unwilling to do so?"

Three years ago, Jin Deman met with Li You, and they had a very speculative conversation. Li You left her the impression that she was gentle and easy to talk to.

Jin Deman smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty agrees, what can he do as a prince?"

The prime minister nodded and said happily: "Your Majesty has a solution, I admire you."

Wang Xuance returned to the guest house angrily and immediately wrote a letter to His Highness King Qi to report on the refusal of the Queen of Silla.

After he finished writing the letter, his mood began to improve and he even became excited.

When the members saw Wang Xuance happy, they asked curiously: "Mr. Wang, the people of Silla have to rely on their debts if they don't pay attention to their credit. Why are you still happy?"

Wang Xuance smiled and said, "I'm dependent on my debts, I'm dependent on my debts!"

Everyone didn't understand even more and asked why.

Wang Xuance smiled and said, "You don't need to know this. Okay, don't ask again, hurry up and send the letter to His Highness the King of Qi."
