Chapter 318: The Duke of Guo Makes a Report, and the Emperor Becomes Furious

Hiss!

Hearing Chen Longxiang's words, Lord Gai Shiwen, who has always been calm, cool and wise, couldn't help but take a breath.

Listening to what the little prince said, the Tang Dynasty must destroy the Goguryeo Dynasty when it goes out to fight!

At the same time.

Behind Gai Shiwen, at the gate of Pyongyang, the royal city, the Goguryeo guards who received the order to surrender and leave the city were coming out of the city in an orderly manner, piling their weapons and equipment under the city wall, and then assembling and waiting to surrender to the Tang army.

Hey——

Gai Shiwen sighed and couldn't speak for a long time.

Chen Longxiang, riding on the yellow horse, held his head high like a proud winner, and continued to say to Gai Shiwen from a high position: "Hey, old man--"

"If I am not mistaken, your Goguryeo Dynasty's treasure king Gao Zang has probably already fled with the royal family in the royal city?"

"Such a guy who abandons the people of the royal city is not worth your life!"

After a pause, Chen Longxiang continued: "Since you and my father are old acquaintances, and you are so aware of the times, I will also make you a promise:"

"After I support the new king in the palace of the royal city, you The prime minister in the court is fully responsible for assisting the new king to rule Goguryeo;"

"As for the power behind you, except for Gao Zang and his family who have fled in disgrace, the rights and status they enjoy remain unchanged;"

"What this king and the Tang Dynasty want is to support a new king of the Tang Dynasty in Goguryeo, so that every inch of land and every city on the Goguryeo Peninsula will be covered with the battle flags of the Tang Dynasty;"

"The rest can be handled by you!"

Chen Longxiang, who was talking nonsense, turned his horse's head again without caring whether Gai Shiwen, who was blocking his way, understood or agreed.

Then, he drew out the Longquan sword tied at his waist, pointed the tip of the sword directly at the Goguryeo royal city, and said sternly: "Eagle Strike Sima——"

"I am here!"

"Lead the troops into the city and take over the city defense!"

"I obey the order!"

In this way, the Gao Dynasty, which had ruled the Goguryeo Peninsula for 700 years, was broken into the royal city by the Tang Navy in an extremely dramatic way.

As the vanguard general of the Tang Navy, King Jin Chen Longxiang, personally held the hand of Chen Lingwu, the four-year-old adopted son of the former emperor, Emperor Zhaowu of the Tang Dynasty Chen Huaian;

Witnessed by the Goguryeo civil and military officials who stayed in Pyongyang, the royal city, they stepped into the palace hall step by step. Behind the throne that symbolized the highest royal power of the Goguryeo Dynasty, the Goguryeo Dynasty, represented by King Treasure Gao Zang, evacuated and became an exiled regime.

Qi Jiguang, the admiral of the Tang Dynasty navy and Duke Dingguo, learned that the vanguard general Chen Longxiang led his troops to conquer Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, and held a simple ceremony to crown the former emperor Chen Lingwu in the palace hall.

Hearing this news, Duke Dingguo Qi Jiguang was shocked.

He even went up to blame his deputy general, Yuan Kai, the Marquis of Tongwu, for not being able to stop the young Prince Jin from making such a ridiculous farce in Goguryeo.

On the one hand, he once again drafted a memorial to report everything that happened on the front line of Goguryeo to Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian truthfully;

On the other hand, he had to order the navy to march east to Pyongyang to assist the "new king" Chen Lingwu supported by Prince Jin Chen Longxiang to resist the Goguryeo Baozang King regime that could strike back at any time.

It is worth mentioning that after learning that the Tang army had re-established a "King of Goryeo" in the royal city, the exiled Goguryeo Treasure King Gao Zang did not immediately return to the city to confront the Tang army, but raised the royal flag in Kaesong and called on the world's troops to rescue the king.

The Tang navy here, after occupying Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, and establishing Chen Lingwu as the new Queen of Goryeo, did not pursue the victory due to the limitations of military strength and terrain, but connected the two places with the Taedong River, relying on the firepower advantage of the navy fleet warships, defending Nampo Port and Pyongyang City, waiting for reinforcements and the will of Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian.

Time passed day by day in the delicate balance between the two sides.

In the imperial study room of Jinling Imperial City.

Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian received the military report from the front line of Goguryeo sent by Qi Jiguang, the admiral of the Tang navy and Duke Dingguo, at the end of March in the first year of Zhaowu.

Moreover, there were three military reports.

The first one was from Duke Dingguo Qi Jiguang, who asked for merit for Chen Longxiang, the vanguard general of the navy and the King of Jin of the Tang Dynasty, and reported in detail how the Tang navy fleet won a great victory in Nanpu Port;

The second one was from Qi Jiguang, who finally made up his mind, and reported in detail to Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian that King of Jin Chen Longxiang led the troops to attack without authorization, and the unclear relationship between him and the former queen mother Su Wan'er;

The third one reported to Chen Huaian the cause and effect of King of Jin Chen Longxiang's sudden attack on Pyongyang City and the support of the former emperor Zhao Lingwu as the King of Goguryeo in the King's City of Goguryeo, and asked the emperor to make it clear what to do with the Tang navy that had occupied the capital of Goguryeo.

Bang!

In the imperial study, Chen Huaian, who had read the contents of the three memorials sent back by Qi Jiguang, was rarely furious.

When he slammed several memorials on the desk in the imperial study, making a crisp bang, even the eunuch Cai He, who was on duty outside the imperial study, and the commander of the Jinwu Guard, the loyal and righteous Marquis Xiao Po, were frightened.

"This is too outrageous!"

After a long time, Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian, who was sitting in the imperial study, finally gritted his teeth and blurted out a few words.

His sharp eyes stared at the urgent report on the table, which Qi Jiguang had sent back by land and sea.

At first, when he saw the content of the first memorial, he saw his brother Chen Longxiang's brave performance in the army and his growth and maturity in the war;

Chen Huaian was still happy for his brother Chen Longxiang from the bottom of his heart. He even thought that after finishing the government affairs at hand, he would take this military report from the front line to the bedroom of his mother Xu Ruoyun to make his mother happy for Chen Longxiang.

Who would have thought that this bastard would make such a big mess just after he made military achievements.

Just the one thing of arbitrarily mobilizing troops, if it was placed in the army under the personal rule of Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian, it would be enough to convict him of treason.

Not to mention that this bastard actually made a ridiculous move to support a new king after conquering the capital of Goguryeo.

It was also fortunate that Chen Huaian was broad-minded. If it was a slightly more petty emperor, he would probably not think of any brotherly love for you and would directly punish you for treason.

You are just a prince, what qualifications do you have to make decisions for the emperor of the current dynasty, and it is such a thing as a king?

Since you want to be a king so much, why don’t you sit on the dragon throne in the Golden Palace?

Of course, Chen Huaian also knew that his brother Chen Longxiang’s move was not intentional, nor was it a manifestation of coveting his throne.

To put it bluntly, this was just a young and frivolous boy who was eager to prove himself in front of his "sweetheart".

In the final analysis, the core of this matter still lies with the former queen Su Wan'er.

As a time traveler, Chen Huaian naturally understood the lethality of this young woman to the hot-blooded young man.

If Su Wan'er hadn't been behind the scenes, with Chen Longxiang's experience and experience, how could he have thought of such a method of killing first and reporting later?

Chen Huaian said to himself: "This Su Wan'er, I underestimated her before!"
