The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, is currently leading ten thousand cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, galloping towards this direction.
Ten thousand Tang Dynasty cavalry gritted their teeth and closely followed the footsteps of the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. They were rushing to join Li Jing, Duke of Wei.
At this moment, Li Shimin felt extremely anxious. After all, he was increasingly worried about the safety of this lone army.
He led an elite division and defeated Gao Huizhen's tribe, while Li Jing led 10,000 troops to hold back Gao Yanshou's 80,000 Goguryeo army.
Although Gao Yanshou used his troops cautiously, the longer time passed, the easier it would be for flaws to appear.
That's why Li Shimin wrote a letter of persuasion to surrender as soon as he captured Gao Huizhen and asked the surrendering general to send him.
But he was still worried. After the battlefield was almost cleared, he left the infantry to take care of the follow-up. He led the fastest cavalry and galloped towards this side.
I only hope that the surrender letter sent by the surrendering general Min Cong and the letter written by Gao Huizhen will have an effect.
Just when Li Shimin was thinking a lot, he heard loud shouts from the front. In a short time, a general rode his horse over and shouted excitedly.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Tan Ma saw the guard Deng and the surrender general who went to Gao Yanshou's headquarters to persuade them to surrender. In addition, General Su Dingfang also accompanied them and was heading here."
"Su Dingfang is here too?" After hearing the news, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel relieved, but then tightened again.
"Have you seen Cheng Sanlang?"
"Well...Tanma didn't say that, so he probably didn't see Little Cheng Taibao."
Li Shimin pursed his lips, said no more, and hurried towards the front of the team.
Soon, Li Shimin saw Su Dingfang and others walking towards this side, surrounded by a group of Tang cavalry.
At the first glance, Li Shimin, Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong, the Xue brothers and others behind him couldn't help but be stunned.
In front of them were Guard Deng and the surrendered general Min Cong. They were all normal, but what was abnormal was Su Dingfang, whom he had not seen for a few days, and the unfamiliar Goguryeo general.
The two of them looked extremely depressed, and they both had dark circles under their eyes that were almost black.
Even on horseback, he was yawning profusely, giving the impression that Su Dingfang had stayed in Goulan Pavilion for three days and three nights with that strange Goguryeo general.
Although this metaphor is slightly inappropriate, the image of the two is really bad.
"What's wrong with that boy Su Dingfang? He looks like he hasn't been able to sleep for days, just like that Goguryeo man."
"Is it possible that they have been fighting fiercely day and night these past few days?"
Li Shimin heard the beeping sound coming from behind him, and his heart was full of suspicion, and his face gradually darkened.
Fighting continuously day and night, only in this way can they be so exhausted physically and mentally...
Su Dingfang galloped forward and saw His Majesty not far ahead. He quickly got off his horse and stepped forward to salute Li Shimin respectfully.
"I see your Majesty, and I congratulate your Majesty on your great victory."
"I surrender, Noah, to see His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."
"No need to be polite, please get up quickly."
Li Shimin got off his horse and stepped forward to help Su Dingfang and Nanoa up.
After looking at the two of them, he said a few words of praise to Noah, and after a look, Noah and the Mincong Taoist were soon taken aside.
At this time, Li Shimin couldn't wait to ask Su Dingfang.
"Su Qing, please get up quickly. How are the casualties among the soldiers? Well... Cheng Sanlang is treating the wounded?"
Facing His Majesty's urgent expression, Su Dingfang pursed his lips and said a little lonely.
"Your Majesty, our army has no casualties. Cheng Sanlang is monitoring the surrendered soldiers of Goguryeo who have agreed to surrender to the Tang Dynasty."
"No casualties? How is that possible?"
Yuchi Gong, who had already dismounted from his mount, was immediately unhappy when he heard this. He raised his thick eyebrows and pointed not far away. He was yawning, and the Goguryeo general Noa said with a sleepy look.
"Is it possible that you and him have been staring at each other sleeplessly these past few days?"
"..." After hearing this, Su Dingfang looked up to the sky speechlessly. Finally, a bitter and embarrassed smile appeared on his face.
"Although Duke E Guoguo did not expect it, it is not far off. These days, we have indeed been watching the excitement of Goguryeo's soldiers and horses."
"..." Li Shimin and a group of important military officials of the Tang Dynasty turned pale. This Su, who likes to squint his eyes, does your special mother know how to chat?
"What's going on with the Su Qing family?"
After His Majesty's voice sounded unhappy, Su Dingfang wiped his face vigorously.
"Your Majesty, in the past few days, on the orders of Li Weigong, I and Li Weigong have retreated to an unknown town with their soldiers."
"Cheng Sanlang took the initiative to request that he lead a battalion of musketeers to roam outside and threaten Gao Yanshou's troops. As a result...Cheng Sanlang led the five hundred musketeers and harassed the Goguryeo troops day and night."
"Not only were grenades used, but also thunder cannons were used, making the Goguryeo soldiers restless day and night..."
"..." The faces of Li Shimin and a group of important military officials of the Tang Dynasty turned dark again. It was him, it was him, it was him...
#####
After hearing Su Dingfang's narration full of resentment and helplessness, the originally blackened faces of Li Shimin and a group of important military officials of the Tang Dynasty gradually became more colorful.
Li Shimin couldn't help but think of Cheng Sanlang who had been chirping at him before that he had invented a wonderful treasure called a flintlock gun.
Talk about that kind of individual weapon that although it is not as powerful as grenades and its range is not as good as artillery, it can change the era.
Regarding this, both Li Shimin and the important military officials of the Tang Dynasty laughed...
But in the end, Cheng Sanlang led the five hundred musketry cavalry to attack in turns, using muskets, grenades and flying thunder cannons, which disturbed both the Goguryeo people and Wu Ben of the Tang Dynasty to sleep.
Having said this, Su Dingfang couldn't help but yawned sleepily and wiped his face.
"The Goguryeo army led by Gao Yanshou launched several tentative attacks on the day they just caught up with our army.
After that, Cheng Sanlang and his five hundred musketeers tormented them day and night, and even our army suffered a lot..."
Pfft... Li Shimin heard the mute sound coming from behind him, and didn't know which bastard it was.
However, Li Shimin also wanted to laugh. With great difficulty, he controlled his expression and thought about it for a long time.
"No matter what, it is a great achievement that you were able to delay the Gao Yanshou Division so that I could calmly annihilate the enemy."
"Okay, hurry up and lead the way. Only if I see Li Lao Aiqing as soon as possible can I feel at ease."
On the surface, Li Shimin said this, but in fact, he wanted to see what Cheng Sanlang, his beloved son-in-law who could save the Tang army, was doing at the moment.
Are you so idle that you start playing cards with your subordinates, or are you bored and start cooking delicious food by yourself...
Both Li Shimin and the anxious famous generals of the Tang Dynasty became more relaxed at this moment.
They all couldn't wait to go over and see what Cheng Sanlang was doing?
