The First Family of Tang Dynasty

Riding a fast horse, galloping along the north bank of Alishui towards Pyongyang City.

Pyongyang City was officially moved here by the 24th king of Goguryeo, Julian (also known as the King of Longevity). Desiring to center on Pyongyang, forces continue to move south, trying to unify the Korean peninsula.

However, for more than two hundred years, Goguryeo has devoted countless efforts and sweat, sacrificed countless warriors, and become the most powerful among the three peninsula countries.

But in the end, because of his own strength, he provoked troubles everywhere, and even the Central Plains Empire ignored him.

As a result, the relationship between Goguryeo and the Central Plains Empire was not harmonious, and even confronted many times.

However, because Goguryeo occupied the Liaodong land as a natural danger, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Central Plains Empire has always been itchy with hatred, but it has never attacked Yalushui.

In the former Sui Dynasty, if the emperor of the former Sui Dynasty was not so happy about his achievements, and he liked to command indiscriminately, Goguryeo might not be able to support it.

But no matter what, Goguryeo has become a model for small countries in the surrounding areas of Datang against the diehards of the Central Plains.

But now, with the upgrading of Datang's ordnance, with the change of Datang's naval tactics.

Goguryeo, which tried in vain to resist the Tang Dynasty's attack as in the past, finally tasted the bitter fruit of failure.

As an elite teacher of the Tang Dynasty, when he crossed the Yalu River last year, he easily took down the fortress on the east bank of the Yalu River.

Yuan Pure Land killed the king and sacrificed to heaven in time, and finally got Goguryeo a chance to breathe.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who liked to pay attention to the demeanor of a great country, accepted Yuan Gai Suwen's request very politely, and retreated to the west bank of the Yalu River first.

The two brothers Yuan Gai and Su Wen were secretly rejoicing that the death of the king was finally exchanged for a period of lingering time.

But the problem is, what happened next made the Yuan clan find out in despair.

Don't say that it's less than half a year, even if you give Goguryeo another three or five years, it won't be able to stop the current Tang Dynasty's soldiers.

The warships of the Dengzhou Navy are being updated rapidly, especially those two-masted and three-masted cruisers with outrageous performance and desperately powerful artillery.

Whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, no matter the wind from the southeast to the northwest, these warships of the Dengzhou Navy of the Tang Dynasty can sail freely on the vast ocean.

The excellent wave breaking performance is not even inferior to the speed of the fast boat.

Let the coast of the peninsula no longer have a peaceful and pure land, and let the peninsula dare not enter the sea.

What's more, it's not that Yuan's didn't do something secretly in that harsh winter.

But the problem is that they found out in despair that those lands west of Yalushui were newly occupied by Datang.

The spies they sent over, as well as the secret agents who specialize in carrying out various sabotage activities, were simply unable to move an inch.

Those Khitan and Mohe ethnic groups that were blown to one side by the wind in the past are like **** who have been determined after eating the weights, wanting to follow the Tang Dynasty to the dark.

For the envoys sent by Goguryeo, it is better to perfunctory with good words.

#####

Those who were worse were directly **** and sent directly to those towns controlled by Datang, and handed over to Tang officials for disposal.

As for those ordinary people, there are more than 200,000 prisoners of war, whether they are locals in Liaodong, or those whose hometown is south of the Yalu River.

They all hated their former ruler, Goguryeo, and gnashed their teeth.

But most of those secret agents and spies who dared to reveal their identities were directly arrested and handed over to Tang officials.

There are also some who were almost beaten to death, even if they did not die, at least half their lives were lost.

In such a short period of time, the land of Liaodong was managed in an orderly manner, whether it was the Khitan, Mohe tribe, or the people of Liaodong, and there were more than 200,000 prisoners of war.

Unexpectedly, they did not suffer from hunger and cold in this harsh winter. Every household has iron stoves and kangs, and food and various living materials are also of high quality and low price.

Even if it is the kind of lonely and widow with no family, they are all

After being admitted to the nursing home, there are special personnel in charge of their diet and daily life.

It can be said that Yuan Shi originally wanted to take advantage of this cold winter to do things, but in the end he found out in despair that he couldn't even do anything.

Moreover, the despicable Tang Dynasty took this opportunity to send people wantonly to various cities in Goguryeo to publicize the murder of the Goguryeo king.

However, Yuan Gai Suwen, the power minister of Goguryeo, had already surrendered to His Majesty the Emperor of Tang Dynasty, and the benevolent Emperor of Tang Dynasty took pity on the new funeral of the Lord of Goguryeo.

In order to prevent the people of Goguryeo from suffering from the war again, they decided to suspend their march and wait for Goguryeo to complete the funeral of the king and elect a new king before accepting Goguryeo's request to surrender.

At this moment, the Yuan clan and the civil and military officials of Goguryeo were dumbfounded.

Although he clearly knew that Yuan Gai Suwen was playing tricks and wanted to delay the time, but the problem was that no one expected that Datang would come to such a coquettish operation.

Under the preaching of the local city-state by the envoys sent by Datang, they also announced many terms.

As long as the city-state is willing to surrender in advance, the city lord will retain his official position and will be rewarded with property.

And those soldiers who put down their weapons will not only be rewarded with property, but also food and living supplies.

Two stones of rice, two bolts of white folded cloth, and five copper coins.

As a result, many city-state defenders in the south of Yalushui dropped their weapons and went back to their homes, looking for their mothers.

There are still quite a few officials who have taken the initiative to contact those sent by Datang, hoping to surrender earlier in exchange for greater benefits.

This is what makes the Goguryeo elites gathered in Pyongyang most desperate.

With Datang's money and food offensive, as well as various propaganda, armies everywhere are no longer willing to listen to dispatches.

Even in the city of Pyongyang, the capitulators have now gained the upper hand.

After all, even Yuan Gai Suwen couldn't see the hope of victory, and throughout the cold winter, Goguryeo's various actions did not allow people to see the slightest chance of being spared ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ On the contrary, it was Datang's various This kind of operation made Goguryeo's domestic resistance force melt and disintegrate like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun.

This made Yuan Gai Suwen and other Goguryeo diehards finally completely desperate, and just a few days ago, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty had sent an envoy to Pyongyang.

Tell the new king of Goguryeo and his ministers and workers that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will lead an army to Pyongyang City in the near future to accept the request of the Goguryeo ruler and ministers to surrender.

Yuan Jingtu held the message from the Kuaima courier in his hand, and strode into his brother's mansion with a worried face.

After a short time, I saw the elder brother who was sitting blankly outside the study, looking at the trees that were sprouting in the courtyard.

It's only been a few months, and the elder brother who was originally just two temples, now, is more white than black, like an old man who is dying.

"Brother..."

"Brother..."
