Datang: I was tricked by the system

Gao Jianwu sat on the ground slumped, facing the scattered corpses in the main hall, his face was ashen.

Yuan Gai Suwen walked up to Gao Jianwu step by step, dragging the bloody blade, and pointed the knife at him condescendingly.

The warm blood dripped down Gao Jianwu's face along the tip of the knife.

"I originally wanted to keep you for a while longer, but you just ran out to die. That handsome man will fulfill you."

At this time, Gao Jianwu's inner fear was aroused to the extreme, and he looked at him with a breakdown: "What do you want?"

"I won't let you succeed." When he spoke, Gao Jianwu's eyes flashed fierceness, and taking advantage of Yuan Gai Suwen's inattention, he drew out the dagger he was carrying and stabbed him.

"Dang!"

Before Yuan Gai Suwen could make a move, Yuan Nanchan knocked off Gao Jianwu's dagger and stabbed him in the chest.

Yuan Gai Suwen's eyes showed a trace of bloodthirsty, "How dare you resist! Damn it!"

"Come here, chop him up for me."

The chopping he was talking about was not just killing, but the real killing and dismemberment.

As soon as he gave an order, soldiers rushed up and chopped Gao Jianwu into pieces.

Looking at the corpses all over the floor, Gai Suzhen asked, "Brother, what should we do next?"

Yuan Gai Suwen thought for a while and said: "Then Li Yi has already stationed outside Liaodong City with more than 30 troops. I have no time to deal with the affairs here. In this way, you, male, go to gather troops. Su Zhen, you take this commander's letter to Silla and Baekje."

"This time, Silla and Baekje suffered huge losses. Moreover, if Goguryeo does not survive, Silla and Baekje will also be destroyed. At this time, we should let go of those personal grievances and unite to the outside world."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Yuan Nanchan took the token and went to the barracks.

And Gai Suzhen went to Silla and Baekje with Yeon Gai Suwen's letter.

As for Yuan Gai Suwen, the main hall was cleaned up, and Gao Jianwu's body was thrown directly into the dog cage. Don't even think about the funeral.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Gai Suwen summoned a group of officials to support Gao Jianwu's nephew Gao Zang as king.

Yuangai Suwen proclaimed himself Damolizhi and became regent.

Since then, the military power and state affairs of Goguryeo have been monopolized by Yuangai Suwen.

After arranging everything properly, Yuan Gai Suwen personally led more than [-] horses and rushed to Liaodong City overnight with Yuan Nanchan.

All of this happened very quickly. Before the common people knew what had happened, the morals of the world had already changed, and in the royal city, the people sitting on the throne had also changed.

……

After a night of rest.

The soldiers of Youtang were all in high spirits. After breakfast, they stood neatly in the line, ready to go, and they would become the most powerful sharp blades when Yihuang gave an order, and they would fight wherever they pointed. Invincible, invincible.

Li Yi glanced at the team, his eyes gleaming. At this moment, he was not in a hurry to set off, but was waiting for news from Xuanwei.

Suddenly, Li Yi's ears twitched, and in the next moment, Xuanwei, who was dressed in black and masked his face, appeared in front of Li Yi.

"My master, the guard of Liaodong City not far ahead is Gao Yuan, and there are probably more than [-] soldiers and horses in the city."

Li Yi nodded.

Gao Yuan!

He did know a little about this man. During the period of Emperor Sui Yang, when he fought against Goguryeo, the battle of Liaodong was even more well-known.

This is not because the Sui army was brave, but because the Goguryeo defenders were too shameless.

In April of the eighth year of Daye, after the Sui army crossed the Liaoshui River, they took advantage of the victory to encircle Liaodong City.

Goguryeo's soldiers were outnumbered in the battle, so they closed the city and stood firm. Seeing that Liaodong City was about to be captured, the Goguryeo general guarding the city, that is, Gao Yuan, made a feigned surrender for the convenience of the soldiers to discuss.

The Sui army gave up attacking Liaodong City under the order of Emperor Yangdi, and sent someone to send Goguryeo's request for surrender to Emperor Yangdi of Sui Dynasty. up.

This was repeated again and again, and it was delayed for several months. The Sui army began to attack the city in late April, and did not capture Liaodong City until early June.

Even later, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty personally commanded the army to attack the city, and at the same time ordered Yu Wenshu to lead the army across the Liaoshui River to cross the other cities of Goguryeo, scattered to the west of the Yalu River, and joined the navy to assist in the attack on Pyongyang.

It's just that they all ended in defeat. Emperor Sui Yang returned to the court unwillingly, but Liaodong City was never captured.

It can be seen that Gao Yuan is a man of strategy, which arouses Li Yi's interest.

"Why do you come back alone, what about the others?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the other Xuanwei have continued to inquire about the news, and the subordinates will come back first to inform Liaodong City."

That Xuanwei clasped his fists and said.

"Well, you've worked hard, go down and rest."

After Xuanwei left, Li Yi turned to look at Xue Rengui and the others, "Pass my order and set off immediately."

"Observe the order!" Xue Rengui, Shan Xian, Fan Lihua and others took orders to retreat.

Lu Ziyu stood beside Li Yi, standing shoulder to shoulder with him. Seeing a trace of worry on Li Yi's face, she couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty is worried about this expedition?"

Li Yi shook his head, "There is nothing to worry about this time. I am really worried about Wu Mei. It has been nearly two months since I left Youzhou, but there is no news from Youzhou. I am afraid that something happened."

When Wu Mei was mentioned, Lu Ziyu was also silent.

She went back to Youzhou in person, and even made a special inquiry, but Wu Mei did not come back.

"Could it be Datang?"

Li Yi shook his head, feeling a little uncertain for a moment.

At this moment, behind Li Yi and the others, a horse's hooves sounded from far to near, "Your Majesty, there is news from Youzhou."

Since Li Yi repaired the road in Youtang, the time for sending various news has been reduced by half compared to the original one. In addition, there are extremely fast zebras, so that the news from Youzhou has been delivered in just a few days. In front of Li Yi.

When the visitor saw Li Yi, he quickly knelt down on one knee and presented a letter with both hands.

"Get up, it's been a hard journey, go down and rest first." Li Yi took the letter and said something, then opened it and read it.

When he learned that Princess Changle and Luo Tong both fell off the cliff and lost their whereabouts, Li Yi's flat brows couldn't help but a little more wrinkled.

"Your Majesty, what happened in Youzhou?" Seeing Li Yi's complexion was not good, Lu Ziyu approached a little bit, and asked with concern.

"It's just some young people who want to tell the truth."

While speaking, Li Yi also handed the letter to Lu Ziyu.

After reading it, Lu Ziyu also became a little worried, "It's clear that someone wants to take advantage of His Majesty's absence and wants to start a war between Tang Dynasty and Youtang, but I didn't expect it to be so despicable, and actually attack Princess Changle and the Ninth Prince."

Li Yi sneered: "If the weight is not heavy, the effect will not be achieved. It's a pity that that person didn't calculate that Luo Tong would ruin him."

"I don't know if General Luo and Princess Changle are still alive." Lu Ziyu was very worried.

"Don't worry, they are definitely alive."

Hearing Li Yi's extremely firm words, Lu Ziyu was taken aback, "Why is Your Majesty so determined?"

[Thank you for giving Tangyuan so much warmth and support, no matter how sad or sad, it’s great to have you! 】
