Datang: Beat Tang Taizong violently at the beginning

Chapter 395 Goguryeo, Tie Shiwen!
Goguryeo,
These three words sound so weak, it is just a small foreign country,

In terms of its territory is not as vast as Tubo Turks, nor as rich as Kyushu, and its population is far less,
But these three words became one of the main reasons for the demise of the Sui Dynasty!

Build the Grand Canal and conquer Goguryeo three times!

These are the two most criticized tyranny of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, and they are also the direct cause of the unraveling of the troubled times of the Sui and Tang Dynasties!
The Grand Canal used millions of people, making the people of the world miserable, but the three conquests of Goguryeo greatly consumed the national power of the Sui Dynasty!
In the eighth year of the great cause, the number of troops in the Sui Dynasty going to Goguryeo was as high as 110 million, and the number of civilians who transported supplies for them was as many as 200 million.
With such unprecedented strength, it is reasonable to say that it is more than enough to attack any country, but it is a pity that Goguryeo is like an iron nail!
However, in the midst of such terrifying and unparalleled strength in the Sui Dynasty, Goguryeo persisted abruptly, and then did not know how to drag the Sui Dynasty, which was number one in the world at that time, into the quagmire of war, causing the world to revolt against the kings, and only then did the Great Tang come into being turned out!

……

Pyongyang, Goguryeo Royal City!

Hurry up and hurry up for half a month, Datang's credential has finally been sent to Goguryeo!

The current king of Goguryeo is Rongliu Wang Quan Nanjian!
It's just that Quan Nanjian is young, and almost all the power in the country is in the hands of the regent Tie Shiwen!

In the royal palace of Pyongyang City, the envoy of King Qin finally saw Rongliu Wang Quan Nanjian!

This Goguryeo king Quan Nanjian sat on the throne, trying to make himself look a bit more majestic, but his thin body seemed to be quite difficult even to lift the crown, so what is the majesty!
On the contrary, under the throne, Tie Shiwen, who sits on the regent's throne with a big knife and a golden horse, is more imposing and strict!

The current regent of Goguryeo, with eagle eyes and tiger face, and a golden horse with a sword, is more regal than Rongliu Wang Quan Nanjian!
"The Great Tang's credential, the one that overthrew the Sui Dynasty?"

After King Qin's envoy went to the palace, someone naturally received the letter of credence, but it was not sent to Rongliu Wang Quan Nanjian who was on the throne, but to the regent Tie Shiwen!

Regent Tie Shiwen didn't hesitate at all. He took over the credential just to look at it, and then casually put the credential aside. Such a behavior immediately displeased the envoy of King Qin!
The letter of credence represents the dignity of a country, but the regent is so disdainful, obviously he doesn't take them seriously!

"The Sui Dynasty was tyrannical, and my Tang Dynasty was born due to luck. Today, there is my Great Marshal Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty who led his troops to destroy Tuyuhun. The second prince of Tubo, Songtsan Gampo, accompanied him. He is currently in Chang'an. The book of the Tang Dynasty will also be sent to Turks. Tubo, Silla, Fusang and other countries, I hope all countries can send envoys to Chang'an to participate in the grand meeting of all nations in two months!"

Regarding the actions of the regent of Goguryeo, although the envoy of King Qin was displeased, he didn't have any expression on his face, but said lightly!
It's just that after the envoy of the King of Qin finished this passage, there was a lot of discussion in the entire Goguryeo royal court!
"Tuyuhun is gone, Tang Dynasty destroyed Tuyuhun, it's impossible!"

Tuyuhun is located in the northwest of the territory of the Tang Dynasty, thousands of miles away from Goguryeo, and Goguryeo has only heard about the existence of Tuyuhun, and has no communication with Tuyuhun.

But a country is a country after all, if the Tang Dynasty can destroy Tuyuhun, it is impossible to say that it can also destroy Goguryeo!

"Looking at the appearance of this Great Tang envoy, it seems that it is not a fake. Tuyuhun is just a small country. If the Great Tang fights with all its strength, Tuyuhun is indeed a small country, but I have never heard of it. The Great Tang has a large-scale Could it be that Tuyuhun was wiped out by just a single division in the act of dispatching troops and generals?"

"If this is the case, then the national power of the Tang Dynasty is very terrible. When the Sui Dynasty attacked Goguryeo, it dispatched millions of troops and returned under the city of Goguryeo. I didn't expect that the Tang Dynasty could With such national power!"

The words of the envoy of the King of Qin surprised the officials and generals of Goguryeo in no time. After all, Tuyuhun is a country, and it is definitely not so easy to destroy a country!
During the Sui Dynasty, three expeditions to Goguryeo, dispatched millions of troops and millions of civilians, never broke through Goguryeo, but now Tuyuhun is destroying the country under the offensive of the Tang Dynasty. Doesn’t it prove that the national power of the Tang Dynasty is far greater than Great Sui!

……

"The envoy of the Tang Dynasty came from afar. He is a distinguished guest. Please go down and rest first. I will give the envoy an answer after the matter of this grand meeting of nations, okay?"

Just when everyone was discussing, Tie Shiwen, who had been on the regent throne, suddenly spoke!
However, even when the regent spoke, his gaze was always lowered, neither looking at the civil and military officials in the palace, nor at the Tang envoy!
"It is rumored that the king of Goguryeo is young and does not take charge of political affairs. Almost all the state affairs, military and political power are in the hands of the regent Tie Shiwen. Now it seems that the rumors are true!"

When the envoy of King Qin heard what Tie Shiwen said, he immediately understood, and after Tie Shiwen finished speaking,

There was no one in the palace to refute, even the monarch, who was like a puppet from the beginning to the end, sitting on the throne, never expressing any opinions!
The envoy of the king of Qin immediately understood that if he wanted to convince Goguryeo to attend the grand meeting of all nations, he might have to open a gap from the regent Tie Shiwen!

Thinking of this, the envoy of King Qin didn't hesitate anymore, and said in a deep voice: "In that case, the envoy will retire and wait for news from the regent!"

After the Great Tang envoy finished speaking, he withdrew immediately without giving anyone else a chance to react.

On the other hand, in the hall, when some people heard what the Tang Dynasty envoy said, some people showed some resentment on their faces, but it was only a very small number. He also showed a triumphant look!

Because what the envoy of the Tang Dynasty said after retreating just now was not waiting for the news of Goguryeo King Chenliu Wang Quannanjian, but waiting for the news of Tie Shiwen, the regent, which means that in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty, Goguryeo’s orthodoxy, or great power , now it is in the hands of Tie Shiwen, not King Chen Liu, this is a disguised admission!
