Chapter 404

As they entered the boundary of Anshi City, both Xue Rengui and Li Hong slowed down the speed of their horses. Night fell slowly at this time. Not far from the foot of Anshi City, tens of thousands of torches began to burn, and rows of tents filled the lower rows of Anshi city.

"Now there are more than 5000 casualties here, otherwise your Majesty would not have called you to come here at once. Koguryo is indeed very tenacious, but it also became tenacious after retreating to Anshi city. Basically, when I met the Tang army attacking the city, they would choose not to fight, or they would abandon the city and flee under a little symbolic resistance. " Xue Rengui holds the reins for Li Hong, and Li Hong jumps off the horse's back.

The 1000 people behind him did not have to wait for Li Hong's order, but began to walk to the tent where Xue Rengui had set up a camp for them. Ready to take a break.

"The casualties are so great that I don't know what my father thinks, but fortunately, it's good not to continue the brute attack." Li Hong nodded. The first task now is to persuade long dad to continue using explosives.

What's special is against the harmony between heaven and earth and the way of heaven. If you want harmony between heaven, earth and people, you have to have life to accept it. That's the way of heaven. Dutmo died under the wall. The way of heaven is a thread.

Under the light of the torch, Li Hong and Xue Rengui crossed the first line of defense behind him and entered the army camp. From a distance, a large tent occupied a large area of open space, surrounded by tents under the dim night and the banners of jinwuwei standing on the top.

"The servant, Lian tie and Yang Wu, were ordered to meet his highness." With the ghost like two people, floating in front of Li Hong.

How about the father? Is it OK? " Li Hong waved his hand and asked lightly.

"Go back to your highness, your majesty is all right, dizziness has not happened again, but these days a little haggard, presumably because Anshi city has been unable to attack for a long time." Yang Wu was supposed to serve the Dragon father. This time, he lent Yang Wu to the Dragon father to protect his safety.

The emperor's tent naturally represents the majesty of the Tang Empire. The whole tent is more like a built-up house, and there are various functional areas in it. Even if the emperor drives his own expedition to Liaodong, in this respect, the Tang Dynasty will not be stingy.

At the entrance of the gate, jinwuwei's helmet is full of armor, and the bright armor is shining with cold light under the light of the torch. The horse's name in hand and the cross knife in the waist seem to exude an inviolable dignity.

Although Li Hong didn't see Jin Wuwei holding a bow and crossbow in secret, he thought they would be more terrible than those on the surface.

Li Hong, who was supposed to go directly into the golden tent, suddenly stopped and looked at the open space around the golden tent and the tents in the distance. He changed his mind and decided to inspect the defense of jinwuwei first.

"Come on in. My defense measures are not up to you, the prince's palace. It's all about jinwuwei."

"Yes, father." Li Hong shrugged his shoulders, but he didn't expect that long dad was waiting for him. It seemed that he was blocked under the city wall of Anshi City, and he had been worn out of patience.

Li Hong quickly walked two steps. Under the gaze of Jin Wuwei, he untied the horizontal knife sent by Yiyang on his waist and gave it to Yang Wu, who then handed it to Jin Wuwei for safekeeping.

This move is not only the surprise of Jin Wuwei, but also the surprise of Yang Wu and tie. It doesn't seem to be the style of the prince's highness!

Even Jin Wuwei, who was standing at the gate of the tent, was ready to be kicked by his royal highness while sticking to his duty. But what they didn't expect was that his highness cooperated with him.

Looking at the surprised look of several people, Li Hong seemed to explain to the people inside: "it's no different here than in Chang'an, as the prince, and in the barracks. It's natural to follow the rules of the barracks, and no one can be an exception."

Li Zhi, who was in the tent, listened to Li Hong's words with sincerity. This was the first time that he set the rules of being a son of man and a minister to himself. That is to say, in the barracks, no one can be too big!

"See your father." Li Hong walked into the tent and looked at the middle-aged man who had lost a lot of weight. He saw that his looks were full of fatigue and anxiety.

Although he was looking at himself with a smile at the moment, Li Hong could still feel that the long father had been tortured almost by this period of war.

"No, the marching speed is much faster than I thought. I think it will take two or three days, ha ha." Li Zhi approached Li Hong, reached out and patted Li Hong on the shoulder. He was slapped with a black nail leaf.

"After receiving your father's order, my son's minister immediately began to gather troops. I didn't dare to delay on the way. I just wanted to get here to see my father as soon as possible." Li Hong followed Li Zhi and walked slowly to the inside of the tent.

"How is your mother Li Zhi motioned Li Hong to sit down, while he himself took the lead in sitting down in the most central position.

In the whole hall, at this time, there are Qi Li, deputy director Gao Kan, former general manager of Dongzhou Road, Li Jinxing, Yang Fang, deputy director of Yanshan Road, Liu Rengui and Xue Rengui behind Li Hong.At the same time, those who have been attacked by the enemy in Liaocheng are the ones who are waiting for the enemy to attack.

Li Hong slowly sat down under Li Zhi. Li Zhi then continued: "hong'er, look at the situation. What's the best plan? Now the father and they have been thinking about it for several days, but they have been unable to come up with a perfect plan

Li Hong looked at Li Zhi again with a smile. Although he lost a lot of weight, he felt that he was strong and strong. Compared with the white fat appearance in Chang'an, he still felt that the Dragon father looked more handsome, but he didn't know whether Longma liked it or not.

He stood up and went to the sand table, picked up the wooden stick and poked over the marked cities which his father had captured and marked. Then he pointed to Anshi city and the three cities behind him and said, "now for Koguryo, this is their last defense line. If you add Anshi City, these four cities will be broken, so straight It is no surprise that Koguryo will make a strong vow to resist. But... "

Li Hong knocked on the outlines of the four cities. His stick swam slowly on the sand table, crossed the Qianshan Mountains, crossed the Wangcheng River, and pointed to Xinluo in the north of Pyongyang. He continued: "the white eyed wolf of Xinluo always looked at the face of Tang Dynasty. A few years ago, we let go of Gaogouli, and they began to mend with Koguryo. So in those years, A large number of Xinluo maids have poured into our Tang Dynasty more than ever before. Should you all have some experience? "

Li Hong asked the generals present with a smile that Kunlun Slaves and Xinluo maids were always the favorite of the Tang Dynasty's powerful families, nobles, aristocrats and family leaders. In the first two years, although he was in Anxi, it did not mean that he knew nothing about Chang'an and Luoyang.

A large number of Xinluo maids who poured into Chang'an and Luoyang from Xinluo were plundered by the nobles and aristocratic families of Tang Dynasty overnight.

But with the beginning to continue to use troops for Koguryo, the number of Xinluo maids began to decrease. What does this mean? Everyone here knows that, and the king of Xinluo once complained to the emperor of Tang Dynasty that Koguryo blocked the trade between Xinluo and the Tang Dynasty, so that Xinluo maids could only enter the Tang Dynasty by water.

However, the water route can be divided into seasons, so the forced Xinluo had to send envoys into the Tang Dynasty to sue Koguryo to the Tang emperor.

Now, in Li Hong's opinion, with the Tang army's arrival at Anshi city again, Xinluo may have received the news that Datang attacked Koguryo for a long time. Now I'm afraid they are starting to attack Koguryo from the north again with the mentality of beating water dogs in pain.

In this way, it is the real reason for Koguryo's tenacious resistance? After all, in the face of double attacks, if there is no tenacious resistance, then for Koguryo, only the road of destruction can be taken.

"In this case, Xinluo wants to get a share of the military use of Koguryo in the Tang Dynasty?" Liu Rengui and Liu Renyuan can be said to be connected with Liaodong, which is not surprising to them at all.

After all, Silla and Baiji once wanted to unite with Datang to conquer Koguryo, but Datang finally gave up the matter because Li Hong dismissed Dai Zhide during his supervision of the country, which finally made Datang give up the use of troops.

At the same time, it also caused Xinluo and Baiji to be beaten up by Koguryo who had come back to God. Finally, Xinluo and Baiji still put this account on the head of Datang. However, at that time, because Anxi used troops, and Li Hong had completely rejected the use of troops in Gaogouli when Li Hong was in charge of the country, no one in the Tang Dynasty paid any attention to their protest.

"Silla and Baiji have always been that kind of dead virtue. It's understandable to take advantage of Koguryo if they want to share a share. Now we can go in two ways. One is to capture Anshi city as soon as possible, and then break through the three cities of South Jiangsu, Mudi and cangyan, and reach their royal city directly. They command Xinluo and Baiji. 2： Continue to stand by until Silla and Baiji can't sit still and attack Koguryo actively. After Silla and Baiji attract most of Koguryo's attention, we can break through Anshi city at the least cost. But... "

"But what? When did you start to stutter Li Zhi asked eagerly.

If he wants to be successful in military affairs, he must capture Anshi city. In this way, if he does something that the former Emperor never did, then he will be worthy of the title of emperor.

"At that time, however, it will be inevitable for Koguryo to perish. We must compete with Silla and Baekje to see who wins the imperial city first, then who can take the strategic initiative in Liaodong." Li Hong looked at the generals who nodded their approval, but all of them had a question. They didn't want to attack Anshi City, but it was really difficult to conquer. Otherwise, how could the first emperor fight here and then the class would return to the dynasty.
