The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Chapter 259: Kill the King of Goryeo and spread the news to all counties to shock the Zhou Dynasty

The next day, early morning.

Li Chengdao had not held a morning court for a long time, but today he suddenly held a morning court, and all civil and military officials were present.

All officials knew that today's morning meeting was due to Gao Jianwu's arrival.

It is true that Gao Jianwu was already a subjugated king, but out of etiquette, he had to formally accept his defeat in the court and issue dispositions.

In the Tai Chi Hall, civil and military officials stood on both sides of the hall in an orderly manner.

"Xuan, General Youwuwei, Xue Wanche came into the palace to see -"

Gao Huai screamed, and his voice floated out of the hall and spread far away.

The guards of Zhijinwu standing on both sides of Danbi sang in turn, and their voices continued for a long time.

As the sound of propaganda sounded, Xue Wanche walked along the royal road and entered the Tai Chi Hall.

After Xue Wanche came to the imperial court, he knelt down and saluted Li Chengdao and said: "General Xue Wanche, please see your majesty!"

"Long live my emperor, long live my emperor!"

Looking at Xue Wanche below, Li Chengdao smiled slightly and said: "General Xue is flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xue Wanche then stood up.

Then Li Chengdao smiled and said: "General Xue has defeated Goguryeo, captured the King of Goguryeo alive, and promoted the power of the Tang Dynasty. I am deeply pleased with his outstanding achievements."

"Your Majesty is so complimentary. I really don't dare to be the last general."

Xue Wanche shook his head and said sternly: "This great defeat of Goguryeo was all due to the unparalleled elite of our Tang Dynasty cavalry, as well as General Han and General Yue who used their troops like gods. How dare a single general with such merits take over?"

Xue Wanche was telling the truth. Although his contribution was not low, the main credit for this victory still lies with Han Xin and Yue Fei.

Han Xinruo's troops were dangerous and dangerous. His army was like a spear, which severely pierced Goguryeo's defense, allowing him to lead the army to march straight in and attack the city all the way.

Yue Fei, on the other hand, marched steadily and was not greedy for merit. He safely landed from the rear and led his troops to surround Goguryeo, forcing Goguryeo to death in one fell swoop.

Although Li Chengdao knew this, he smiled and said: "I will never forget the contributions of General Han and General Yue, but the contributions of General Xue cannot be buried either."

"I will grant you the title of Duke of the county, named Wu'an, and a settlement of households."

The meritorious service of destroying a country is enough to be rewarded with a title.

Xue Wanche was canonized as one of the Twelve Generals when Li Chengdao ascended the throne. There were very few generals of the third rank. It was difficult to promote him to an official position, but he could be given a title.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xue Wanche couldn't hide the joy in his eyes and immediately thanked him profusely.

The title of Duke is hereditary, and the treatment of 5,000 households in the town is far better than the treatment of ordinary Dukes!

An ordinary county official's food town only has households, and households is already comparable to the country's prince's food town.

If Xue Wanche hadn't been a veteran who had followed Li Chengdao until now, he wouldn't have received such exceptional treatment.

After thanking him, Xue Wanche returned to the ranks of generals, and many generals cast congratulatory and envious glances at him.

After awarding Xue Wanche, it was Gao Jianwu's turn to be tried.

"Bring King Gao Jianwu of Goguryeo to the palace for an audience!"

Gao Huai shouted again.

After he finished speaking, Gao Jianwu walked into the Tai Chi Hall under the escort of his guards.

Gao Jianwu was dressed in plain robes, with a haggard look and slightly messy hair. There was no sign of the majesty of a Goguryeo king.

The Tai Chi Hall was magnificent, with guards standing solemnly outside the hall, and hundreds of civil and military officials standing on both sides of the hall. After Gao Jianwu entered, all the officials' eyes were focused on him.

Even though Gao Jianwu was used to being watched by others as a king, now that he was in an enemy country and under the watchful eyes of so many officials, he still couldn't help but feel a lot of pressure and panic in his heart.

But when his eyes swept over a graceful figure, he suddenly showed a look of disbelief, and said angrily: "Queen Deshan?! You, why are you here!"

Today, not only civil and military officials, but also Queen Deshan also attended today's court meeting. She participated as the monarch of a vassal state and enjoyed the gift of a seat.

The reason why Gao Jianwu could recognize Queen Deshan at a glance was because he had seen her and once wanted to control Silla through a marriage between the two countries.

But he couldn't figure out why Queen Deshan was here?Shouldn't she be in Silla?

After hearing Gao Jianwu's words, Queen Deshan just glanced at him and said calmly: "We, Silla, have become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. We will be vassals of the Tang Dynasty forever. We will serve the Tang Dynasty as our master. Why not come to Chang'an alone to meet the emperor?"

"what?!"

Gao Jianwu was shocked when he heard this. Silla had actually become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty and had surrendered to the Tang Dynasty?

After the shock, Gao Jianwu felt unspeakable anger in his heart. He pointed at Queen Deshan and cursed: "Although I, Goguryeo, are hostile to you, Silla, we are from the same ancestry!

You actually surrendered to the Tang Dynasty and became a vassal to this butcher!You are simply a shameless bitch, unworthy of being the king of a country! "

"presumptuous!"

A flash of anger flashed in Xue Wanche's eyes. He had long been unhappy with Gao Jianwu. When he heard him calling Li Chengdao a butcher, his face immediately turned cold.

"Snapped--!"

Xue Wanche went up and slapped Gao Jianwu hard on the face. His strength was so great that Gao Jianwu flew up with one slap and spun around in the air before landing.

Gao Jianwu fell to pieces, his left cheek was swollen, and several of his teeth were missing. He fell to the ground and let out a scream like a slaughtered pig.

Queen Deshan looked at Gao Jianwu's ugly appearance, a trace of pity flashed in her eyes, shook her head and said: "The Tang Dynasty is a celestial kingdom, and His Majesty is an unparalleled emperor, but you still think that the Tang Dynasty is the once chaotic Wuhuan During the Han Dynasty? When Your Majesty is in power, how can you, Goguryeo, be immortal?"

While saying these words, Queen Deshan was also glad in her heart that she had wisely chosen to come to the Tang Dynasty to surrender to Li Chengdao in person, otherwise she might have stood in the palace as a subjugated king.

Gao Jianwu was very angry, but there was also a trace of regret in his heart.

If he had been unfavorable in ordering Zhimun to invade the border of the Tang Dynasty, if he had chosen to send people to pay homage to the Tang Dynasty, the outcome today might have been completely different.

However, no if.

Queen Deshan is right. Today's Tang Dynasty is not the Sui Dynasty of the past. There is a fundamental difference between the two.

"Your Majesty, we, Goguryeo, are also willing to surrender to the Tang Dynasty forever. Please do not destroy our Goguryeo royal family. Even if we give one county, no, one county is enough!"

Gao Jianwu knelt on the ground and said flatteringly to Li Chengdao.

One moment he was calling Li Chengdao a butcher, and now he was saying that His Majesty begged for his life. This change was so disgusting that Queen Deshan, who originally had a hint of pity for him, also looked away in disgust.

When he heard Gao Jianwu's words, Li Chengdao just narrowed his eyes and sneered: "Spare you? If I spare you, how will the people who were slaughtered by you Goguryeo rest in peace! What can I use to commemorate my death in the Tang Dynasty? soldiers!"

Li Chengdao looked at Gao Jianwu expressionlessly and handed down the final judgment without hesitation.

"Behead him, and his head will be passed down to all counties, in order to shock the Zhou Kingdom!"...
