Sui and Tang Dynasties: Beginning with Overlord Inheritance

Still Pyongyang.

Lai Huer led the army and landed successfully.

And quickly, approaching Pyongyang.

Because it was by water, the Goguryeo side only received the news when the army was about to go ashore.

The news was also passed to Gao Yuan in Pyongyang as soon as possible.

Gao Yuan only ordered someone to send an urgent military order last night, and today he received news that the Sui army had landed and was heading towards Pyongyang.

Immediately, he called all the civil and military personnel of Goguryeo to come.

"See Your Majesty."

All civil and military personnel gathered together, and when they saw Gao Yuan, they hurriedly saluted.

"Exemption."

Gao Yuan nodded solemnly.

"Everyone, do you know why the King of Ben called you here today?"

he asked.

"know."

Ulji Boondeok spoke first.

His expression also reveals a dignified look.

"Because the Sui army has landed by water and is heading for Pyongyang."

Eulji Wende said.

As the general of Goguryeo, it is not surprising that he knew the military situation in advance.

"Ah."

Gao Yuan froze for a moment, but still nodded.

Apparently, the news about the Sui Army's military situation came back to Ulji Moondeok the first time, and finally to him.

As the king of Goguryeo, Gao Yuan was somewhat uncomfortable to receive the news after the general.

It's just that the enemy can't shake the morale of the army at present, so Gao Yuan didn't show it.

"What, the Sui army came so fast?"

"What should I do now, how to deal with these Sui troops."

Sounds like these immediately resounded throughout the hall.

"enough."

Gao Yuan shouted loudly, interrupting everyone's discussion.

"Pyongyang's city defense is the first thing."

he ordered.

"promise."

Ulchi Boondeok took the lead.

"However, my lord, my subordinates suggest sending reinforcements to the inner city to help defend."

Eulji Boondeok made a point.

"Yeah, what the general said is right."

When the rest of the civil servants heard it, they all agreed.

Seeing this scene, Gao Yuan frowned, looking a little displeased.

"The king knows about this."

Seeing this, Yuan Taizuo spoke slowly.

"good."

Ulji Wende also guessed something, and quickly echoed.

This made Gao Yuan's complexion look much better.

"In this case, dispatch a hundred thousand troops to the inner city."

Gao Yuan ordered.

"But the defenders in Pyongyang, how should they deal with it?"

he asked again.

"My lord, although the Sui army came quickly, their attack this time is very risky."

Eulji Wende said.

"Why?"

After hearing this, Gao Yuan asked curiously.

"Because this Sui army is a lone army, and has lost contact with the Sui army that broke through Liaodong."

Eulji Boondeok explained.

"As long as the situation in the inner city is stable, the Sui army who came to protect the children will be attacked from both sides."

He continued.

"What the general said is true, there will be no reinforcements for the nurse."

Yuan Taizuo replied.

"Ah."

Gao Yuan nodded slightly, his expression relaxed a lot.

"As long as the Sui army headed by Lai Hu'er is defeated, although it may not be possible to defeat other Sui armies, it can also keep all the cities."

Eulji Wende said.

This is already a conservative estimate. Based on this, it is even possible to defeat the Sui army.

"it is good."

Gao Yuan completely relaxed.

Sui Jun came too fast, which made him very upset.

Now after hearing Eulji Moondeok's words, Gao Yuan gradually calmed down.

"Since the Sui army headed by Lai Huer has come, let them stay here forever!"

Gao Yuan's eyes turned cold.

"The mighty king!"

Upon hearing this, all the civil and military personnel below shouted in unison.

"The overall military power of Goguryeo is still in your hands."

Gao Yuan looked at Eulji Moondeok and said.

Although he is dissatisfied with the opponent's excessive power, and even overwhelms the master, his prestige is growing.

But Goguryeo has only such a general to use, and it is possible to deal with this crisis.

"Thank you my lord, my subordinates will not let you down!"

Ulji Wende replied sonorously.

After he retreated, he immediately dispatched [-] troops from Pyongyang to the inner city.

Pyongyang also immediately prepared for the next city defense, waiting for the arrival of the Sui army.

Gao Yuan returned to his harem and summoned Yuan Taizuo.

"Your Majesty."

Yuan Taizuo saluted.

"Ugh."

Gao Yuan didn't speak, but let out a long sigh.

"Is there anything bothering you, Your Majesty?"

Yuan Taizuo asked curiously.

"Indeed."

Gao Yuan nodded heavily.

"What's the matter, I don't know if the subordinates can solve the king's worries and problems."

Yuan Taizuo lowered his voice and asked.

"You saw the discussion today, Ulji Moondeok."

Gao Yuan hesitated to speak.

"Your Majesty thinks that Ulji Wende has made too much contribution, and some civil and military people are too surrounded?"

Yuan Taizuo broke through Gao Yuan's thoughts with a word.

"good."

Gao Yuan nodded.

That expression, who knows me quite well, is the meaning of Yuan Taizuo.

"Your Majesty, there is no rush to deal with this matter after this crisis."

Yuan Taizuo asked with a smile.

"How to deal with it?"

These words hit Gao Yuan's heart.

"Weaken its military power and establish its empty position."

Yuan Taizuo replied with a smile.

In other words, it is to empty Ulchi Wendeok.

In fact, Yuan Tae-jo, as the head of civil servants, naturally wanted to suppress Eulji Moon-deok.

This is conducive to the expansion of one's own power.

"feasible."

Gao Yuan nodded slightly, already convinced.

The two talked secretly for a long time before Gao Yuan let Yuan Taizuo leave.

The two of them never imagined that the conversation just now had been learned by others.

This group of people is Jin Yiwei who came to Pyongyang specially to carry out anti-indirect tactics under the order of Yang Zhao.

And with the conversation between the two, Jin Yiwei can make the anti-indirect plan more successful.

The next day.

The undercurrent in Pyongyang was surging, and some news spread quickly.

It is said that it is Ulji Wendegong Gao Zhenzhu, who has threatened Gao Yuan's rule.

All of a sudden, the news that Ulchi Wendeok's military power was taken away and then killed spread like wildfire.

Such news reached Ulji Wende first.

"nonsense!"

Facing the lieutenant general who told the news, Ulji Wende yelled directly.

"Yes, General."

The lieutenant was shocked and hurriedly got up and cupped his hands.

"If this is the case, is it necessary for the king to let me take charge of the city defense this time, and to give me all the military power?"

Ulji Boondeok asked continuously.

While these conspiracies and tricks are being brewed, if you continue to do so, isn't it shooting yourself in the foot?

So in Eulji Wende's view, Gao Yuan still believed in him.

It is impossible for these so-called rumors to destroy the trust between him and Gao Yuan.

"Maybe this is the conspiracy of those Sui troops."

Ulji Wende said coldly.

"The general said so."

The deputy general quickly agreed.

However, Ulji Wende ignored one thing. He himself thought it was a rumor, but it was not necessarily true for the soldiers of the three armies.

It still has a certain impact on the morale of the army and the hearts of the people.

And it will also make Gao Yuan, who was already dissatisfied with Ulji Wende's achievements, become more suspicious and dissatisfied. This is only the first part of Jin Yiwei's plan.
