Traveling through the troubled times of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Extra Story: The Battle of Goguryeo

At the beginning of 630 AD, the Tang army marched towards Goguryeo in two ways: land and water.

The coach, Luo Cheng, commanded [-] Luo family troops, and supervised the army, Qi Wang Li Yuanji.

When the news reached Goguryeo, it was as if the court had exploded. The Treasure King, who was originally a puppet, was sitting on pins and needles at this moment.

Quan Gai Su Wen's face was terribly gloomy, the two men sent by Li Tang this time are not easy to deal with, and they are deeply afraid of their country.

In Liaodong City, he sent countless elites to encircle and kill Luo Cheng, the son of the King of Peking. They fought from dawn to dusk, but they didn't kill him.Li Yuanji was even more ruthless, killing people without blinking an eye. After breaking the city, he immediately started killing and massacring the city for three days.The bravery of Luo's army made the soldiers who had survived with him on the battlefield of Liaodong City dumbfounded...

Treasure King made a swallowing motion, and said cautiously: "Lord Mo Lizhi, in your opinion, what should we do? Why don't we send envoys to the Great Tang to discuss peace?"

"Negotiate peace?" Quan Gai Su Wen's eyes swept over viciously, and the Treasure King was so scared that he didn't dare to say another word, "So many subjects in our country have died, you don't want to avenge them, but you still want to please Datang? How do you do it?" This is the lord of a country?"

All the ministers lowered their heads, pretending not to hear.Such rebellious words are not uncommon in Goguryeo's court.The Treasure King has no real power, and Quan Gai Suwen controls the government alone.

"Even the Sui Dynasty couldn't do anything to me, Goguryeo. He was a mere Li Tang, and he wanted to attack my Goguryeo before he had a firm foothold? Overestimated! Even if I poured all my power, Li Tang would have to stumble hard. Let him not dare to underestimate me, Goguryeo. Pass my order, summon the army, and face the Tang Dynasty soon!"

Not to mention how terrified people are in Goguryeo, at least Luo Cheng, who has already led the army, is in a very comfortable mood, if he ignores the little follower behind him.

"Chengdu, you said this time to attack Goguryeo, how should we fight?"

As soon as Luo Cheng opened his mouth, Yu Wencheng stepped forward, and just as he was about to take the small flag planted on the sand from his hand and deploy it, the person behind him took a step forward and inserted it horizontally in the middle.

Luo Cheng and Yu Wencheng looked at each other.

Seeing that the person in the middle didn't feel embarrassed at all, he stretched out his hand to snatch the small flag from Luo Cheng's hand, and handed it to Yu Wencheng very respectfully, still muttering: "The little one is here to serve you, General Luo, even That's what I ordered."

Turning his head, glanced at Yuwen Chengdu, lowered his head without squinting, looked at the ground and said: "General Yuwen, don't move, there are outsiders in this camp."

Luo Cheng opened his mouth and thought, why did he make such a move?It doesn't matter what you say.

Even if Yu Wencheng could not express his emotions or anger, he didn't like such a person who was standing in front of him all day long and wanted to separate himself from Luo Cheng all the time.

This person is none other than Li Yuanji's dog leg, Li An.Li An knew very well that if he followed his master, at least he would not have to worry about food and drink. If he stayed in Chang'an City, he might be hacked to death.Therefore, after Li Yuanji was sent away by the emperor's imperial decree, he was different from other servants of Prince Qi's mansion. He did not pack up and leave, but hugged Li Yuanji's thigh tightly, and went out to fight together.

Li An privately thinks that Yuwen Chengdu should not be underestimated. Looking at his selfless and upright appearance, he actually has a much bigger heart!

Let’s take this attack on Goguryeo as an example. The prince finally relied on General Luo, but it took less than three days. When General Luo asked Yuwen Chengdu about his plans, the big-tailed wolf in Yuwen Chengdu pretended to be contemplative. It is said that the soldiers will besiege Goguryeo by land and water!

The land route is naturally the Luo family army led by General Luo, so what about the water route?

You said that you, Yuwenchengdu, are both civil and military, and you are the number one warrior in the previous dynasty. Logically speaking, it is most suitable for you to go, but Yuwenchengdu recommended his own prince, and the prince went berserk on the spot, unwilling to leave.But Yu Wencheng blocked all his rejections with one sentence - who has a hundred thousand soldiers under his command?Who can mobilize these [-] soldiers?

Furthermore, you don't need a boat to travel by water?The whole world belongs to your Li family. Isn't it just a matter of saying that you need more than ten or twenty boats and enough food?The emperor is still protecting his weaknesses. Didn't he see that you are against him like this, and he generously sent you a hundred thousand soldiers to protect your bumpy love journey?

This is taking the ship by force, begging for supplies from the local government... Li Yuanji has to do it.

General Luo's eyes also brightened, and he looked at Li Yuanji expectantly. The spineless Li Yuanji really had no resistance to Luo Cheng's crystal-clear eyes, so he could only nod lazily, and led a hundred thousand soldiers from The waterway departed.

But he was not stupid. Before leaving, he intentionally put an eye on Luo Cheng and Yu Wencheng, and arranged an eyeliner beside them, and said childishly, if Li An was not allowed to follow, he would not outflank the waterway, but just stay in By Luo Cheng's side, love is whatever.

In this way, Luo Cheng could only agree, not to mention that he didn't feel that there was any shameful thing between him and Yu Wencheng, but it didn't go away, and the situation of being stared at all the time was also uncomfortable!Like now—

The voice sounded faintly again: "General Luo, as long as you say a word, my lord will set off from land and water and besiege Goguryeo. My lord is infatuated with you. You can't go around and do it while my lord is not around." I'm sorry for him."

"puff……"

With three black lines on Luo Cheng's head, he glanced at Luo Yong who was beside him.

Luo Yong hurriedly covered his mouth with one hand, and before he could close the smile on his face, he waved his hands repeatedly with the other hand and said, "I didn't hear anything, General, I'm going down to train soldiers now, you three go on, go on—"

Luo Cheng closed his eyes, took a breath and said, "Li An, if you talk nonsense again, go to Li Yuanji immediately."

As soon as the words fell, I saw the person who was standing in the middle suddenly kneel down with a plop, startled Luo Cheng, and was about to wipe his nose and tears on Luo Cheng's body, scaring Luo Cheng back several steps.

"General Luo, you want the young one to die! If the young one really went to find the prince, the prince would definitely think that the young one offended the general. Our prince has a bad temper, and it's better for you to be happy and angry, general. , All kinds of torture are used on the little one, the little one is really worse than death!"

"General Luo, just pity the little ones. The little ones still have children to support. If the little ones are gone, how will you let them live?"

Luo Chengzhen has never seen such a face change, the speed is jaw-dropping.

"You...you get up first."

"General Luo, it's the young one who can't speak. If I offend you, the young one slaps me." After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and slapped his face. Luo Cheng hurriedly stopped him, "You get up first, you get up—"

"If General Luo still asks me to find the prince, the little one will not be able to kneel for long, and I will slap my mouth until the general forgives the young one."

That is a real fan, just those two blows, my cheeks are already red.

Yuwen Chengdu has already begun to admire the servant next to Li Yuanji, who is really "flexible and stretchable". Get up, I won't let you go."

When Li An heard this, he immediately beamed with joy, stood up and said, "Yeah! I don't have any other skills, but I am considerate in serving people. My prince specially asked me to stay here when he was leaving, just to serve the general. There is no one in this barracks." Keep the woman, the job of serving tea and water is covered by the younger one, and the younger one has been with the prince for seven or eight years, he is loyal, his mouth has always been tight, and if he hears any secrets, he promises to keep his mouth shut."

Yu Wencheng let out a cold snort, this loyalty--it's really impressive!

He couldn't be chased away, and if he stayed, he would make trouble for himself. Luo Cheng secretly glanced at Yu Wencheng, who was separated from his eyes, and sighed.

Such an embarrassing scene lasted for half a month, until the army arrived under the stone city of Goguryeo.

Under the stone city here, the Luo family's army was all brave and forcibly attacked the city. Over there, Li Yuanji also led his own soldiers to cross the sea in a building boat, enter the Yalu River, and fight Goguryeo soldiers in Bozhuocheng.

The Luo family army is very good at fighting here. Don't forget that Luo Cheng has devoted himself to the research and development of weapons since he knew that he had traveled through time, hoping to use it against the Japanese country one day.Later, they rebelled, went to Wagang, and took refuge in the Li family, fighting everywhere, helping the Li family to rule the world... They didn't use those extremely lethal gunpowder, or large crossbows, advanced weapons, it's not impossible, But Luo Cheng didn't want to use it.

Why is this?

Then let's talk about Luo Cheng's inner thoughts.

In his opinion, even the Sui Dynasty under the rule of Yang Guang, or Wang Shichong's tribe who competed with the Li family, or Dou Jiande's subordinates, etc... These people are all from their own country!Although they have been fighting each other for many years, after all, the door is closed, and it is a matter of our own family - it is a civil war!

But attacking Goguryeo and Wa is not the same!

Goguryeo has repeatedly taken advantage of people's dangers to harass our dynasty and harm the people on our borders!Although Wa Guo is honest now, but in the near future, he will be the most dishonest!How many hardships have I suffered for the common people, how many people have been scattered, and their families have been destroyed. Therefore, Luo Cheng used gunpowder without any pressure.

Therefore, attacking Goguryeo and Wa Kingdom-that is foreign affairs!

Luo Xiaocheng is clear about it.

Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, Luo Cheng directly mounted the large crossbow without saying a word, and fired several shots in succession. The arrows are made of fine steel, which are much stronger than ordinary arrows. It is more permeable. It can be said that as long as it is not shot at a hard stone wall, an ordinary shield or something, it will shoot in with one arrow, directly through the shield, and hit the Goguryeo soldier behind him.

Under such circumstances, the soldiers guarding Shicheng had no way of parrying. They were shot by arrows and fell from the top of the city tower. The soldiers guarding the city had never seen such a powerful weapon, and they were terrified. How could they concentrate on defending the city? With such a big fight, he was quickly defeated and the gates of the city were opened wide.

Shicheng was captured with almost no effort.

The news of the capture of Shicheng spread to the court, and when Baozang Wang and others were still in panic, it was reported that the soldiers of Boqiang City abandoned their weapons and surrendered.

It is surrender, not defeat!

How is this going?

It also depends on Li Yuanji's victory in Liaodong City!There is also Li Yuanji's determination to end the war and return to Luo Cheng's side!

Li Yuanji was restless in his heart as he walked all the way by water.

Thinking about being sent away and Yu Wencheng being by Luo Cheng's side all the time, he vomited to death, wishing that this battle would end quickly.

If you are irritable, behave naturally, and make decisions rashly.

The first massacre was out of anger, to avenge Luo Cheng, and the second time to massacre the city was out of habit.

When Li Yuanji Chuchu led his own soldiers to attack the city of Bopan, he immediately sent people to the city to shout without saying a word.

It is nothing more than reporting his name first, and then ordering several people to shout one after another. If the city surrenders now, abandon the weapons and do not kill, and leave the soldiers to take over the city and wait for the officials assigned by the Tang Dynasty to manage it, what should the people do? If you are stubborn and insist on resisting to the end, on the day of breaking the city, massacre the city for three days, regardless of men, women, children, women and children, soldiers and common people, they will all be murdered without leaving any bones behind!

Li Yuanji's move can be said to be worthy of the nickname given to him by the people of Goguryeo - Living Hades!

The general guarding the city hesitated and hesitated, facing countless city citizens who were holding their children and staring at him... Ask the court for help. The court is too busy to take care of itself. It is said that Shicheng is also under attack... Now there is Li Yuanji's men Every hour, I went to the tower to count down the countdown, and the slaughter of the city seemed to be right in front of my eyes...

The general guarding the city finally decided to trust him once. After all, he is still the prince of Tang Dynasty, and Li's orthodoxy, how can he go against his word?Surrendering now will not hurt innocent people and lose their lives in vain.

In this way, Boba City was taken over by Li Yuanji without a single soldier.

When Quan Gai Suwen heard the news, he was so angry that the veins on his forehead were exposed. Hearing this, Gai Suwen's son refused to accept it in private, and secretly led an army of [-], arbitrarily advocating entering the Yalu water to attack Li Yuanji's navy.

By the time Quangai Suwen knew about it, his son Quan, a boy, had almost arrived in Bobao City.

It's also because of his bad fate that he didn't come sooner or later, but when Li Yuanji was in a hurry to deal with the resettlement affairs of Boba City, he led 5 soldiers and wanted to go to Shicheng to meet Luo Cheng and others, so he came!

Anyone who stands in the way of Li Yuanji is the same as blocking him from meeting Luo Cheng!What can't be tolerated!

Although the boy from Quangai is both civil and military, he has fought too little after all. When he was in China, he had a powerful father and he was often complimented by others, so he was somewhat self-righteous, thinking that he would not lose to Li Yuanji How many.

But showing his hands with real knives and guns is not enough for Li Yuanji to look at!

Although Li Yuanji is not as good as Luo Cheng in martial arts, Yuwen Chengdu, and Li Tang's emperor Li Shimin and former prince Li Jiancheng in writing, but at the age of 14, he followed the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan to fight in the north and south. He fought bloody battles. What kind of scene has never been seen before? ?I almost lost my life several times, it's really a life-threatening game!

Therefore, when a boy from Quan meets Li Yuanji, it's like a scholar meets a soldier, it's too much to look at!

Within two strokes, Li Yuanji had his head chopped off.

This completely annoyed Quan Gai Suwen. Quan Gai Suwen, who had faintly planned to negotiate peace with Datang, was filled with grief and hatred, and vowed to fight Datang to the end.

Quan Gai Su Wen was at the top of the court, covering the sky with one hand, and implementing an iron-fisted policy, which was incompatible with the Tang Dynasty.

Goguryeo's strict defense and desperate resistance made the Luo family army and Li Yuanji's personal soldiers unable to attack for a while, and the front line was stretched, and they were in a stalemate.

In the tent, Luo Cheng, Yuwen Chengdu and Li Yuanji are all present.

Yu Wencheng glanced at Li Yuanji, who was at the side, and said, "Why are you here in Shicheng when you're not guarding in Bobacheng?"

Li Yuanji raised his eyebrows: "This war won't be over for a while. Is it possible that I will stay in Boca City? It's not impossible for me to guard Boca City, unless Luo Cheng accompany me to Boca City. "

Yu Wencheng snorted lightly, this person is like a child, he often acts like a rascal, no wonder his servants are like this, what kind of master and slave are there, they are not bad at all.

"Li Yuanji, stop making trouble. You are the guard of Boca City, and you have to rely on you for the affairs of Boca City. How can you move around at will?"

"I didn't say I couldn't go back. I just missed you. When I come back to see you, I'll leave at night." Li Yuanji chuckled, his blunt words made Luo Cheng's face burn, and he lowered his head as if he didn't hear it. The tip of Honghong's ears still pleased Li Yuanji, and he was in a good mood.

"Then let me talk about our next deployment." Yu Wencheng didn't want to be entangled in this atmosphere, and broke through, "In my opinion, we can adopt a strategy of harassment and attack."

"What do you mean?"

Yu Wencheng turned his head to look at Li Yuanji and said, "What about the food and grass of the army, is it okay?"

Li Yuanji rolled his eyes: "Who dares to hold back my food and grass? See if I don't kill him when I go back! If Li Shimin dares to order my food and grass to be withheld, I'll go back and make trouble for him. Add to his troubles. It's not difficult for him to kill me, but he just killed his brother and seized the throne, and forced his father to step down. Killing me on the tip will inevitably leave an impression of being too cruel to the court ministers and the people of the Tang Dynasty. He has just ascended to the throne and his position is not yet stable. Naturally, he will not kill me if he can, which shows that he Repay kindness with kindness."

Luo Cheng couldn't help laughing, it seems that this person is quite transparent.

Not to mention, he really dared to go back and act mischievously, otherwise why would the emperor throw this big trouble on himself.

"Yuwen Chengdu, put your heart in your stomach. If we fight for one year, we will have plenty of food and grass for one year. If we fight for two years, we will naturally not be short of half a point of food and grass. If we fight for ten years, I will go back and grab it. I'll snatch it for you! Whoever loses his food and salary, can't lose my Li Yuanji."

Yu Wencheng nodded: "That's easy."

Yu Wencheng looked at Luo Cheng and said, "Anyway, we have plenty of time and food to spend with them, so let's spend it with him! It will be farming time soon, and we will divide the soldiers into several teams and go to harass them from time to time to make the people of our country Tired of dealing with it, it would be best if we could delay the farming season. After a long period of time, there is a food shortage in Goguryeo. How can the soldiers have the strength to fight? The people are not full of food, and people are panic-stricken. How can they resist our army? ?”

Luo Cheng thought for a while and said, "This is the safest method with minimal casualties."

The three hit it off and went to their respective duties.

Since then, the Goguryeo soldiers obviously felt that something was wrong with the siege army. They used to attack the city directly and blatantly, but now it has been more than a month, and they have not seen anyone calling. They are training every day.You want to say that he will not attack the city?Why not retreat?Why are you still training?

After more than a month of busy farming, the Goguryeo subjects finally knew what the Tang army wanted to do—the Tang army was playing a big game of chess!

People recharge their batteries for so many days just for the present!

The more farming season, the stronger Tang's army fought, attacking the city openly during the day, hanging ropes at night, flying eaves and walls, and burning the grain they just harvested from the field!

Therefore, Goguryeo soldiers are under a lot of pressure recently!Resisting the strong attack of foreign enemies during the day, and guarding against the sneak attack of villains at night... How embarrassing are the Goguryeo soldiers who were tired and flustered during the farming season!

Greetings to your old lady, is it sinful or not that you are doing this!

After repeating this for dozens of days, all the soldiers of Goguryeo were quite haggard, and the key nutrition could not keep up, because the food was either still in the field and had not had time to collect it, or it was collected and burned by someone. Want to cry but have no tears.

During this year's farming season, there was almost no harvest.

Before winter came, all the food in the national treasury was used to help the victims.

How can you fight if you can't eat enough?The people no longer have any hope for the country, and the whole country is full of depression.

Just at this time, because of the death of his most beloved eldest son, Quan Gai Suwen, who was already heartbroken, also fell ill. With his illness, there was no leader among the dragons in the court, and the second and third sons had already reached the end of the day because of power struggles. degree of clarity.

Strong enemies are waiting outside the city, and internal turmoil continues inside the city.

At this time, Silla, who was unwilling to be lonely, jumped out again. Seeing that Goguryeo was a grasshopper after autumn, it was good to jump in a few days. As an ally of Datang, Silla also sent three Thousands of elite soldiers are waiting for Luo Cheng's dispatch.

Gaiquan Suwen on the hospital bed heard that Silla had also sent troops, and was furious for a while, spat out old blood, and finally lost his strength, passed out, and died in the middle of the night.

But his second son couldn't wait to take control of the political power and proclaimed himself Mo Lizhi. Unfortunately, before he could enjoy the fruits of victory, the Tang army captured Xincheng, an important military town, and then the three cities of Nansu, Mudi, and Cangyan. The Luo army captured Fuyu City, and then took advantage of the victory to pursue and captured Dahang City. Finally, the land and water armies and the Silla army joined together under the city of Pyongyang.

Pyongyang was besieged for more than a month, and Baozang Wang finally led dozens of civil and military officials to open the city gate and surrender because of insufficient food and grass in the city, lack of people and horses.

So far, Goguryeo has been completely settled.

Spoiler: The War of the Japanese Kingdom (1)

In the city of Chang'an, above the court hall, Li Shimin was overjoyed when he saw the victory report in his hand, and said in a loud voice, "Good! Good! General Luo really lived up to my high expectations! Goguryeo, which is so difficult to fight, has been pacified in this way. Already! Quan Gai Su Wen also died of illness."

"And there are unexpected gains in this battle! Previously, Baekje allied with Goguryeo to fight against our Tang Dynasty, and repeatedly attacked our vassal state Silla. At one time, it captured more than ten cities in Silla, trying to block Silla and our Tang Dynasty. This time, Luo Cheng has praised my country's prestige in the Tang Dynasty! He gave me a big sigh of relief!" Li Shimin was overjoyed, "Strike while the iron is hot, and defeated the Baekje army who came to support Goguryeo. They even chased after them. They directly invaded the capital of Baekje, and captured the king of Baekje, Yici, and now Baekje is also in my territory of Tang Dynasty!"

When everyone in the court heard the words, they all beamed with joy and praised again and again.

There are some flatterers who praised the emperor's kindness and moved heaven and earth for such a smooth pacification of Goguryeo and Baekje; there are also Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Shan Xiongxin and others who heard that Luo Cheng was unharmed , and pacified Goguryeo, they were proud of it, and they were very happy.

Suddenly a voice asked: "I don't know when General Luo and the others will return to the court? I'll make preparations early and go out of the city to meet them."

Li Shimin said bluntly: "General Luo doesn't need to go back to the court this time, he will directly attack the Japanese country."

As soon as these words came out, the voices in the hall immediately stopped.

Your Majesty, what does this mean?What does that mean?

How can there be an army that has gone out and can't wait to drive them out and continue to attack the city before they return to the court?No matter what, I have to go back to the court to receive the reward, and take a little rest.

Could it be that the emperor is afraid of General Luo's military power?Don't want him back at all?If this is the case, then the fact that General Luo was sent to attack Goguryeo this time will become more interesting!The emperor admires General Luo on the surface, but in fact he is deeply jealous!

There are more than one or two who have this idea, of course not including Qin Qiong and others. You must know that when they were fighting the world together, they were good brothers who went through the wind and blood. The emperor is trustworthy for how he is. , so that he would not measure the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

Therefore, the generals suppressed the confusion in their hearts, and finally waited until they retired, one by two ran to the palace one after another, demanding to see the emperor one by one.

When Qin Qiong entered the study, she was taken aback for a moment. Xu Maogong, Shan Xiongxin, Cheng Yaojin, You Junda and others were all there.

Sitting in the upper seat, Li Shimin laughed loudly and said, "Why, didn't all the Qing families agree to be together? They asked to see each other, so the guards had to report several times."

Everyone was embarrassed and bowed their heads.

Li Shimin didn't go around too much, and straight to the point, he said the official statement: "Although Baekje was captured and the king of Baekje was captured, Fuxin, the second son of King Uija, escaped by luck. I got the news that Fuxin fled to the country of Wa. , together with the so-called Emperor Tianzhi, is preparing a large-scale army, trying to cross the sea, attack my Tang Dynasty, and restore the country to Baekje. It is precisely because of this news that I want to put down the war with all my might and send Luo Cheng to put it down."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, obviously seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

"Your Majesty, even if the war is quelled, there is no one who would pass by the house without entering and directly attack the Wa Kingdom."

This is a clear statement of disbelief.

Li Shimin shook his head helplessly: "I really can't hide anything from you, the national teacher. It was not my decision to attack the Wa country, but Luo Cheng's decision. In fact, long before Luo Cheng volunteered to attack Goguryeo, it was even very early. , when he rescued my Li family in the grove, he made an agreement with me that if one day, I hold great power, I must promise him to attack the Wa Kingdom, and make the Wa Kingdom a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, firmly in my hands inside."

"At that time, I didn't dare to think that I would have the status I have today. As time went by, I almost forgot about this agreement, but who would have thought that Luo Cheng met me in private the night before the attack on Goguryeo and brought up that It is agreed, and if the country of Wa is successfully captured this time, Luo Cheng begged me to let him stay in the country of Wa and guard the country of Wa, as long as the country of Wa is under the rule of his Luo family, it will be a part of the Great Tang for a day."

"It can only be said that by mistake, Luo Cheng will attack the Wa Kingdom sooner or later. It just so happens that the Wa Kingdom is still restless at the moment and conspired with Baekje to try to send troops across the sea to attack the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Luo Cheng attacked the Wa Kingdom. The name of the fight is justified." At first, Li Shimin was afraid that he would be charged with military aggression. After all, the Japanese country did nothing, and you were going to beat him. I didn't think that the Japanese country was so stupid that it took in the second son of King Uija of Baekje. Still planning to attack Datang? !

Haha... Now Tang Emperor Li Shimin is happy, and the pig teammates are invincible!

So, Luo Cheng, you can attack the Wa country without any worries.

"Let's just say, my old Cheng, this matter is not our emperor's fault, it must have been requested by Brother Luo himself. A long time ago, when he was in Wagangzhai, he was always thinking about attacking the Wa country. My old Cheng I thought he was joking, but I didn't expect him to be serious."

"Don't blame the emperor? Don't blame the emperor, why are you so anxious, you didn't even have time to pee, and you came to see the emperor?" You Junda rolled his eyes at him, and he didn't know who it was, and kept yelling that he would Seek justice for Brother Luo—it's too unkind for the emperor to send Brother Luo away like this!

Cheng Yaojin's words were exposed, and he was so embarrassed that he had nothing to say. He rubbed his head and said with a smile, "Aren't I here to pay respects to the emperor? It doesn't mean anything else."

Li Shimin laughed out loud, and did not pursue the hints in Cheng Yaojin and You Junda's words.

Qin Qiong pondered for a moment and said: "Although I don't know why my cousin made this decision, when I was in the Beiping Palace, I often heard him say that we should take good care of Japan."

Qin Qiong asked again: "Dare to ask the emperor, if my cousin conquers the Wa country this time, will he really not plan to come back?"

"That's right, that's what I care about! Brother Luo is so ruthless, he will leave as soon as he says he wants, and he won't say anything to the brothers." Shan Xiongxin said indignantly, "We have been brothers for so many years, he is really willing to let go. !"

"If he told you, would he still be able to leave?" Li Shimin asked back.

"Yes." Qin Qiong nodded.

"Then the emperor must know the reason why Brother Luo insisted on leaving and refused to stay? Even if you attack the Wa country, you can still come back after the attack is over. Why do you want to stay in the Wa country?"

"The national teacher is indeed the national teacher." Li Shimin nodded in approval.

"It's because of Yuwen Chengdu." Not a doubt, but an affirmation.

"Military Master, didn't Yu Wencheng fall off the cliff? Didn't he die?" You Junda and the others asked back without knowing the truth.

"I was lucky enough to be rescued by someone, but my face was ruined." Xu Maogong is one of the few people who knows the ins and outs of the matter, "The name Yuwen Chengdu is too famous, and it is destined not to survive in the sun. I am afraid that Brother Luo Cheng's departure will be the same. Because of him."

As a result, everyone was silent. In fact, Luo Cheng's feelings for Yu Wencheng had always been deep, and everyone knew something about it.

I don't know what the Luo Cheng brothers experienced while lurking beside Yang Guang's stupid lord before, but since the two armies confronted each other, Luo Cheng has been pleading for Yuwen Chengdu everywhere, the most obvious one is the siege of Siming Mountain.

The other anti-kings may not know, but their own brothers know the inside story. In order to save Yuwen Chengdu's life in the battle of Siming Mountain, the Luocheng brothers once knelt on their knees and begged Cheng Yaojin, who was still the devil king at that time, to protect Yuwen Chengdu. Zhou Quan, you must know that Yuwen Chengdu was the number one general under Yang Guang at that time, second only to Yang Lin. If the rebel kings wanted to kill Yang Guang, they must kill Yuwen Chengdu first. Under such circumstances, Luo Cheng ignored himself and firmly Clearly expressing your position is tantamount to making an enemy of the whole world against the king.

What is there in Yuwen Chengdu that deserves him to do this?

But now, little brother Luo Cheng didn't even want to come back because of this person, which was too difficult for brothers like them to accept.

Different from the disbelief of these people below, Li Shimin smiled noncommittally and didn't say much. He knew about the affairs between Luo Cheng, Yuwen Chengdu and Li Yuanji. I hope he did the right thing and made this happen. three people.

Seeing the soft expression on the emperor's face, Xu Maogong relaxed his heart a little. Anyway, at least things were not as bad as they had imagined before. If this is what Brother Luo Cheng wanted, then I hope he will not regret it.

Thinking about it this way, there are actually traces of this matter, at least the Luo family should be clear about the ins and outs of the matter.Just imagine, old prince Luo is so angry, if he really wronged Brother Luo Cheng, he wouldn't have to quarrel with the emperor!When he was the Supreme Emperor, he dared to force his way into the palace, let alone now.

After some persuasion by Xu Maogong, everyone finally retreated, but they were still a little angry in their hearts. Brother Luo is fighting again, how happy it is!If this really brings down the Wa Kingdom and the garrison manages it, wouldn't it be the Emperor of Earth?Not to mention how happy and comfortable it is.Right now the emperor treats them very well, and there is no shortage of official rewards, but there are too many rules, such as the morning court every day-is it really sleepy?

Brother Luo really had the foresight to hide away!Suddenly envious Brother Luo said.

Standing on the bow of the boat and looking into the distance, Luo Cheng sneezed and rubbed his nose, thinking that the fog was too thick, and he couldn't see the direction clearly, and he didn't know how far he was from Wa Kingdom.

A coat suddenly appeared on his body, he turned his head to the side, and when his gaze reached Yuwen Chengdu's shoulder, Luo Cheng curled his lips a little discouraged. Height was a serious problem for him, and he grew taller every year. Ah, why is there still such a big gap with someone? Luo Cheng secretly reached out and gestured at the top of his head, and then extended to someone's neck. Someone grabbed his hand and pulled it to his chest.

"Don't compare, it's still the same if you compare."

Luo Cheng lowered his head angrily, kicked the deck with his toes, and said sullenly, "When will I be as tall as you?"

Yu Wencheng pulled the man in front of him, stood face to face, stroked his hair with the other hand, lowered his head slightly, and rested his doting eyes on his smooth forehead: "When I'm old, I can't wait until I'm old." When you stand up and can only walk with your back bent, you must be taller than me at that time, I am so much older than you, and I will be older than you."

Luo Cheng raised his head suddenly, and the tip of their nose was almost touching. Luo Cheng saw himself reflected in his eyes, and felt distressed, helpless, and a sour feeling spread from the bottom of his heart.

Perhaps it was because his eyes were too complex and focused, which made Yu Wencheng a little stunned, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he asked worriedly: "What's wrong? Is there something uncomfortable? But before Does your injured arm still hurt?"

"Yes, both of your arms have been severely injured, but in bad weather like wind and rain, I'm afraid it will be uncomfortable. It has been foggy for the past two days, and the weather is not very good. It is normal for your arms to hurt. You should stay on the deck Stand up, go back to your room and rest."

"Everything is up to me, don't worry. We will not return without success in this battle. I will definitely fulfill your wish, hold the Wa Kingdom in both hands, and present it to you."

"At that time, you don't have to stay for me. Your family and brothers who were born and died are all in Datang, go back—"

What else to say, people have already been hugged.

Yu Wencheng let him wrap his waist tightly around him in a daze, not knowing where to put his hands: "What's wrong? Luo Cheng."

Luo Cheng rubbed his head against his shoulder, trying not to let himself cry: "Yuwencheng, when did you talk so much? I have known you for so long, and you have always been a taciturn person. I leave When you were in Jinyang, you were so mean to say goodbye to me, and when you were at Siming Mountain, you were so decisive that you never gave me a chance to save you... Even when you attacked Goguryeo, when we were alone and helpless, you were so desperate. Didn't say a word, just handed over the back to me, let's kill the enemy together..."

"But I would rather you talk less now, because if you do this, I will only rely on you more and more. Maybe next time, you will lose your life because of me."

Yu Wencheng gently reached out and patted the person in his arms, one after another, silently comforting.

With him, Luo Cheng's heart can always feel inexplicably calm and at ease.I haven't felt this way for many years, probably in my previous life, when the Japanese invaders hadn't invaded the country. Since then, he has been keeping a vigilant state. He always reminds himself that this is not acting. Lost life.

Now, that sense of security is back.

Watching Luo Cheng return to the room, Yu Wencheng was about to turn around
