Chapter 383 Two Kings Response

"Your Majesty, we have just received news that the Tang Army has entered Goguryeo from the west of our country and is heading towards Wuliluo."

In the royal palace in Pyongyang, Yeon Gaesoo Moon was receiving a report from the intelligence department. When he heard that the Tang Army was attacking the west, he didn't express much.

"Come here and invite all the ministers to come to the palace to discuss matters."

Although Datang has now entered the territory of the Treasure King, what if the Treasure King cannot bear it?

When the time comes, it will be his turn to be Yeon Gaesumun, and he must prepare in advance.

Soon the ministers arrived.

"See Your Majesty."

"Dear dear friends, I have just received information that the Tang Dynasty has begun to use troops against our country, Goguryeo. They set out from Khitan territory and entered the western part of our country, Goguryeo.

Now they should have taken Wuliluo directly. There is only one Wuliluo west of the Liao River. After they capture it, they can use it as a stronghold to cross the Liao River and slowly encroach on Goguryeo.

Can you guys have some good strategies? "Yeongae Suwen didn't mince words, he directly explained the current situation.

"What, the Tang Dynasty used troops against me, Goguryeo?"

"Why, haven't we always been on good terms with Datang?"

"The ambition of the wolf in the Central Plains will never die."

Upon hearing the news, the ministers present were surprised and began to discuss.

"Your Majesty, now we are across the river from Gao Baobao. Even if we want to send troops, I'm afraid Gao Baobao won't agree.

For the current plan, we still need to understand why the Tang Dynasty sent troops and what the purpose was. We should write a letter of credence to the Tang Dynasty. "The eldest brother said.

"What purpose can this have? The Central Plains wanted to occupy Goguryeo a hundred years ago. Now the Tang Dynasty has sent a large army to come, and the purpose is very clear. They want to take advantage of our country's civil strife and rob it." The doctor's envoy replied.

Yeon Gaesumun looked at the ministers below and was also deep in thought.

Yes, Datang's purpose was obvious, which was to occupy Goguryeo, but the current situation in Goguryeo made it impossible for him to send troops.

If he doesn't send troops, he can only wait until the Treasure King is destroyed and rule across the river from the Tang Dynasty. It's hard to say whether the Tang Dynasty will give him this opportunity.

But if troops were sent, the Treasure King would not agree. He was afraid that Yeon Gaesumun would take the opportunity to attack him. Or capture his city.

This damn Gao Baobao, Yeon Gaesumun cursed secretly in his heart, if he didn't split away, why would Goguryeo be like this?

He never thought that it had something to do with him holding the emperor hostage to order the princes.

"I will write a letter of credence and send it to Chang'an by land and water. We cannot just sit back and wait for death. We will strengthen the recruitment of troops and urge the people to farm."

"Your Majesty, if you want to farm, the court must provide at least half of the grain reserves. The people have no grain in their hands and will eat everything they can." The eldest brother said.

Damn it, Yeon Gaesumun patted the throne, why is Goguryeo like this now.

"Then first take out [-]% of the grain and send someone to tell the Japanese envoys to hurry up. They are still dragging their feet at such a price."

The price the Japanese country gave them was more expensive than the food provided by Prince Ji's palace, but Yeon Gaesumun had no choice. He needed to feed the army and the nobles.

Damn the Japanese country, Yeon Gaesumun cursed the Japanese country again.

"Your Majesty, the envoys from the Japanese Kingdom came to tell us that their food has been robbed several times. I heard that there is a wave of pirates near the coast. They rob merchant ships and do all kinds of evil.

Therefore, the Japanese envoys decided to transport food from their homeland, but the price may be more expensive and the time will take longer. "The eldest brother replied.

"It's more expensive? You bastard, you are a shameless person." Upon hearing this, Yeon Gaesumun immediately jumped to his feet. This group of greedy thieves,

But he had no choice. The Tang Dynasty had imposed an embargo on their food. He tried many methods to no avail, and the checkpoints were extremely strict.

""Your Majesty, why don't we contact the aristocratic families of the Tang Dynasty? They are deeply rooted in the Tang Dynasty and they should be able to find a solution. "At this time, a minister came up with an idea.

Yuan Gaisuwen's eyes lit up, yes, I heard that the aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty were very powerful and could influence the government. As long as they were given enough benefits, he believed that these aristocratic families would sell them anything.

"Okay, let the envoy to the Tang Dynasty meet with the people of the aristocratic family. At the same price, we might as well buy food from the Tang Dynasty, and we can also make good friends with the aristocratic families.

If possible, let them operate in the court. As long as the Tang army can withdraw, we can give them enough wealth. "

Yeon Gae Suwen immediately decided that no matter whether it works or not, he must at least try hard to do it, just in case it can be done.

He was not in a hurry, but the Treasure King was extremely anxious. The Treasure King had just received news that more than 20 troops of the Tang Dynasty entered the west of Goguryeo from the Khitan territory and went straight to Wuliluo.

And he immediately sent [-] troops to set up defenses on the east bank of the Liao River. He did not dare to send troops for reinforcements, fearing that Datang would come to a encirclement point for reinforcements.

Wu Liluo was abandoned by him like this.

"Your Majesty, we are now surrounded by enemies from both sides, and the situation is not optimistic." A grandmaster said.

Gao Baobao also had a headache. In fact, Gao Baobao was promoted to the position by Yeon Gaesumun. He didn't have much talent.

But King Hobo's ambition was not small, and he fantasized countless times about defeating Yeon Gaesumun and unifying Goguryeo.

"Do you have any good ideas?" I don't know how many days we have been talking about this topic.

But there is really no good solution now.

"Your Majesty, why don't we go to Xue Yantuo and promise them a favor and let them send troops to help us." A minister suggested.

"Xue Yantuo was killed by the Tang Dynasty at the beginning of the year and lost [-] soldiers and horses. Now that they have penetrated deep into the hinterland, they are afraid of the Tang Dynasty's revenge. I am afraid they will not agree." Another minister said.

"Why don't you cooperate with Yeon Gaesumun?" Someone suggested,

The Treasure King immediately asked after hearing this;

"Do you want me to continue to be a puppet for Yeon Gaesumun?"

The Treasure King said that he would never cooperate with Yeon Gaesumun. He did not want to be a puppet. In his heart, Yeon Gaesumin was just as ambitious as the Tang Dynasty.

Everyone was thinking hard but couldn't think of any specific good solution. Nowadays, civil strife is rife in their territory, and many small towns are occupied by civilian rebels.

But at this time, the Tang Dynasty came to interfere again, and it seemed that the Tang Dynasty wanted to completely occupy Goguryeo, which made the Treasure King really anxious.

"Report~~~~Border pass urgent report, Wu Liluo fell, the town general Jin En defected to the Tang Dynasty, led the Tang army of 10,000 to deceive the Liao River defenders, waiting for the opportunity to launch an attack, the Tang Dynasty's [-]+ army took the opportunity to cross Liaoshui." At this moment, a messenger running in under the leadership of the guards.

"What?" The Treasure King was shocked when he heard this. He shook his body and almost fell down.

Fortunately, the attendant next to him stepped forward to support him.

"Bring the battle report." Treasure King said after sitting down.

(Sigh~~ The women’s football team is a bit regretful, but I think Xiaozhi should be carefully checked to see if there is a genetic mutation. I ate something that radiated.)
