Sui and Tang Dynasties: Beginning with Overlord Inheritance

Liaodong City.

All civil and military, gathered again.

After a period of rest, it was time to continue heading north.

"Yang Zhao, can we send troops?"

Yang Guang asked directly.

"Return to Your Majesty, it is indeed time to send troops."

Yang Zhao replied.

"However, for this expedition, I can lead the army there, and please rest in Liaodong, Your Majesty."

Yang Zhao said.

After hearing this, Xue Shixiong and others hesitated.

Letting His Majesty stay in Liaodong to recuperate, and Yang Zhao led the troops there privately, no matter how you think about it, it is a bit inappropriate.

After all, the current Yang Zhao doesn't have a fixed identity yet.

"Your Majesty, this."

Xue Shixiong hesitated to speak.

It's not that they don't believe in Yang Zhao, but they want to know Yang Zhao's identity.

"Your Majesty, it is not impossible to let General Yang Zhao take the three armies, but let us rest assured."

Yu Zhongwen touched his nose and said.

The so-called peace of mind is to find out Yang Zhao's true identity.

Even if he didn't make it clear, Yang Guang understood the thoughts of all civil and military officials.

He looked at Yang Zhao, but did not speak.

The latter shook his head, saying that it was not the best time to reveal his identity.

At least wait for the Goguryeo incident to end and return to Chang'an.

At that time, it is the official declaration of identity.

"I don't worry, you don't worry?"

Yang Guang understood and said this lightly.

"Since His Majesty is relieved, the ministers are also relieved."

Xue Shixiong said.

He understood that Yang Guang didn't want to talk about it yet.

But Yang Guang said in front of everyone that he believed in Yang Zhao, which in a sense made their guesses closer to the truth.

"Yep."

Yu Zhongwen followed suit.

"This time, leave [-] troops in Liaodong, and trouble General Xue and General Yu to stay behind."

Yang Zhao directly stated his arrangement.

"feasible."

Yang Guang nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Yu Zhongwen and Xue Shixiong naturally wouldn't object.

"The rest will follow to the inner city."

Yang Zhao continued.

"allow."

Yang Guang replied.

"Let's go now."

Yang Zhao said in a deep voice.

This matter is here, so it is settled.

Xue Shixiong, Yu Zhongwen and others left first to arrange the defense of Liaodong City.

Yang Zhao and Yang Guang stayed alone, and the father and son looked at each other.

"Zhaoer, be careful."

Yang Guang said.

"Don't worry, father, when the son returns, it will be the time when Goguryeo will perish."

Yang Zhao said in a deep voice.

These words contained his great determination.

"OK."

Yang Guang stroked his chin beard and laughed.

The father and son didn't say much, Yang Zhao turned and left.

After leaving the city lord's mansion, he immediately mobilized the army.

The army assembled, and with almost no delay, they embarked on the road to the inner city.

Yu Zhongwen and Xue Shixiong watched the army leave from the top of the city.

When Yang Zhao went this time, he hardly brought any generals around Yang Guang.

Those who took them were Yang Yichen, Hua Gongyi and others, as well as Qin Shubao and Luo Cheng.

As for Yue Fei and Li Cunxiao, they left with the cavalry first.

"General Xue, can we conclude now?"

When the figure of the expeditionary army got farther and farther away, Yu Zhongwen said suddenly.

"Until His Majesty speaks out in person, nothing can be determined."

Xue Shixiong shook his head.

If you make wild guesses and spread rumors, you are asking for trouble.

This is not a small matter and needs to be treated with caution.

"Well, the Goguryeo War is over, and we may know what we should know."

Xue Shixiong murmured.

"Can this battle really be won so easily?"

Yu Zhongwen said suddenly.

"Liaodong was destroyed, and Goguryeo also knew the situation. I am afraid that the domestic city will not be easily destroyed."

He continued.

Coupled with the insufficient strength of the expeditionary force compared to before, it made it even more difficult to destroy Goguryeo.

"With Yang Zhao's character, if he is not fully sure, he probably won't send troops."

Xue Shixiong replied.

With just such a sentence, Yu Zhongwen dispelled all doubts.

It was on Yang Zhao's side, when he led the army to go out.

Here in Pyongyang.

Jin Yiwei began to intensify the conflict between Eulji Wende and the Goguryeo royal family.

This time the rumors have reached the most critical time.

Rumors mainly say that Eulji Moondeok learned that the royal family is going to deal with him, and is quietly preparing his own way out.

In addition, some information was deliberately revealed to the royal family's intelligence agency.

It is said that Eulji Mundeok was waiting for the arrival of the Sui army, and prepared to open the gate of Pyongyang and choose to join the Sui army.

After laying the groundwork, the royal family received the news as scheduled.

Right in Pyongyang Palace.

"Inverted!"

Gao Yuan slapped angrily on the desk.

Even the elderly Yuan Taizuo was so frightened that he didn't dare to take a breath.

Knowing these news basically confirmed Ulji Wende's plan to rebel.

"I ask you, why did the news of our conspiracy leak?"

Gao Yuan looked at Yuan Taizuo and asked.

"Your Majesty, I don't know either."

Yuan Taizuo said with a bitter face.

Now the situation in Pyongyang has become precarious.

"Could it be Ulji Wende who arranged someone beside us?"

A flash of inspiration flashed in Yuan Taizuo's mind, and he said suddenly.

Hearing this, Gao Yuan was also taken aback for a moment.

"Yes, there is a possibility. It seems that Ulji Moondeok is not that loyal to the royal family anymore!"

Gao Yuan was even more angry.

In the beginning, he might be angry that the news that he was going to deal with Ulchi Wende was leaked.

As a result, Ulchi Wende has changed, which is also because of his fault.

But after hearing Yuan Tae-jo's words, it shows that Ulji Moon-deok has always been rebellious.

For a moment, murderous intent appeared in Gao Yuan's eyes.

"What should we do now, Ulji Wende cannot be in charge of city defense!"

Gao Yuan asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, just think of a way to remove Ulji Wende from his position."

Yuan Taizuo agreed.

"any solution?"

Gao Yuan asked hurriedly.

"Isn't the Sui army headed by Lai Huer coming? We can make Ulji Wende lose in the defense of the city and find an excellent excuse?"

Yuan Taizuo said.

"Is it too dangerous to do this?"

Gao Yuan hesitated.

After all, Ulchi Mundeok was rebellious and might open the city gate to the Sui army.

"Your Majesty, we can let people oversee the army, and let the palace guards subdue in secret..."

Yuan Taizuo persuaded.

He and Ulchi Wende had never been on good terms, and if Ulchi Wende really made a move, he wouldn't be able to go around.

"Okay, my king knows."

Taking a deep breath, Gao Yuan said in a deep voice.

A plan quietly appeared in his mind.

"Peace Ulji Wende during this period of time, and don't make him suspicious. This king is also worried that he will directly lead the army to rebel."

Gao Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.

Ulji Moondeok has this strength, because his prestige in the army is far higher than Gao Yuan.

"promise."

Yuan Taizuo took the order.

The two didn't discuss for too long, guessing that the sky would be bright, Gao Yuan let Yuan Taizuo leave.

In order not to be seen by others, Ulji Wendeok became vigilant.
