After hearing this, Yang Guang couldn't help but nodded slightly, smiled and raised his hand to make a nod to Yu Shiji.
"This is human nature. I know your loyalty to protect your children and serve your country. You don't need to say anything for him."
"Your Majesty is wise and I am aware of my guilt." Yu Shiji quickly and respectfully apologized. However, seeing that the emperor's face turned cloudy, he thought that this punishment would not be excessive.
"Not only you, Zhou Fashang and Xiao Yangqing's family were all trying to cover up for him. It seems that although Xiao Yangqing's family has just joined the military, they see things quite clearly..."
"How can a person who is favored by His Majesty be considered mediocre?"
"Haha, that makes sense, but I don't know if this guy will be busy with military and political matters all day long, but he has forgotten what he promised me."
Yu Shiji couldn't help but be surprised. What did that little guy Yang Qian promise to His Majesty? Why had he never heard of it?
Seeing the astonishment on Yu Shiji's face, Yang Guang couldn't help but smile.
"That boy promised me to go and have a look at the majestic sea and dedicate his masterpiece to me."
Hearing this, Yu Shiji couldn't help but feel happy, and immediately straightened his face, saying very indignantly.
"Your Majesty can issue an edict to reprimand him and ask him not to forget his promise. Otherwise, he will be guilty of deceiving the emperor."
Yang Guang was stunned, then burst into laughter, pointed at Yu Shiji and cursed with a smile.
"Well, you old man, you are so vicious. Well, that's the way it should be. You can't let that kid be busy with military matters and forget this promise."
"Well, fortunately, although the Pyongyang Road has suffered a small setback, it is still strong after all. I tell you not to make the mistake of rushing forward again, and to make a good contribution to me. Otherwise, you will be punished for both crimes. Let's draw up an edict..."
"I obey the decree."
"Don't forget to send that boy a handwritten edict, just like what we just said."
Yu Shiji smiled and saluted Yang Guang. "Your Majesty, don't worry."
At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly entered and prostrated himself on the ground. "Your Majesty, General Yuwenshu has sent good news."
"Bring it to me and have a look..." Yang Guangmao was delighted and waved his hand.
After just a few glances, Yang Guang couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and stunned Yu Shiji next to him.
"His Majesty?"
"It's only been two days, and the city has already been broken." Yang Guang said without raising his head, his face turned red, and his tone sounded quite excited.
#####
"The city was destroyed in two days?" Yu Shiji couldn't help but take a deep breath and looked shocked.
"Exactly, it says on it, Wanjun Thunderbolt, it was tested for half an hour yesterday.
Today, starting from the morning, at dusk, we spent seven to eight thousand kilograms of stone bullets to destroy the east wall of Liaodong City."
“Even the Wengcheng in the east city was reduced to ruins, which frightened the nearly 200,000 soldiers and civilians in Liaodong City.
Goguryeo had no choice but to send the emissary Eulji Zhenggwang as envoy to No Eulji Wende to ask for his surrender."
Yu Shiji took a deep breath and then raised his head amid the good news.
"The Liaodong City of Goguryeo is what we consider to be the most difficult-to-conquer Goguryeo fortress in Liaodong."
"But now, it has only been two days, and it has been so badly damaged."
"I finally understand why His Majesty went out of his way to confer the title of Duke Zheng to Yang Shilang on that day."
"Okay, you don't need to flatter me. In fact, I had my doubts, but I didn't expect that this ten thousand-year-old thunderbolt car has only been used twice."
"The first time was when the army crossed the Liao River and smashed the vast dense forest into a thicket of debris."
"The second time, in just two days, Liaodong City, where hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo troops were stationed, became dilapidated, forcing them to leave the city and ask for surrender."
"It has been used twice, and it has achieved great success. It is finally worthy of Yang Qing's hard work, and my regard for him is not in vain."
"Your Majesty, please tell me how to deal with those Goguryeo envoys."
"Let them have a good rest first. I'm a little tired. I'll see them again tomorrow."
He had been surrounded by a large group of Sui troops, waiting for the uneasy Eulji Zhengguang, who was walking outside, to wait for the news delivered by the eunuch.
Not only did he not look anxious on his face, but he was secretly happy in his heart. He followed the Sui army in an orderly manner to find a place to rest.
In any case, if we can delay it for one more day, Liaodong City will have one more day to repair the city defenses.
At the same time, the Sui soldiers patrolling in front of the Sui army camp noticed something unusual on the city wall.
They saw that under the illumination of torches, countless Goguryeo soldiers and civilians appeared like a field of ants at the damaged areas of the east city wall.
It seemed that they were working hard to clear away the dirt and rocks with the intention of repairing it. They were so frightened that they quickly sent someone to report to Yu Wenshu.
Yu Wenshu, who was holding a military meeting, immediately became happy.
"Just let them repair it. There are so many big gaps. If it's serious, just smash it a few more times.
Is it possible that the gap repaired in a short period of time can still compare with the previous city wall?"
As soon as this statement came out, the generals gathered in the tent burst into laughter.

Yang Qian sat firmly in the tent of his supervisor, with a gloomy face, looking at the sixteen or seven dejected hapless ghosts who were prostrating themselves in the tent.
At this moment, the second brother Qin also had a dark face and told Yang Qian truthfully.
"Supervising the army, they gathered for gambling in the army. They got into quarrels over winning or losing, which resulted in dozens of people fighting each other, and two people even broke their arms."
After hearing the report from Brother Qin and the testimony of eyewitnesses, Yang Qian glanced at the gang who had eaten enough and had nothing to do, but ended up gambling and fighting.
"Do you agree?"
"recognize."
"In this case, according to the law, gambling in the army is not a serious crime. However, you not only gamble, but also treat your love as nothing, and fight in the army..."
Yang Qian, with a dark face, carefully counted the crimes of these gangsters, and then decided on the punishment and asked them to go out of the tent to lead the military sticks.
Hearing the cries of father and mother coming from outside the big tent, Yang Qian couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
"Second brother Qin, please sit down quickly. Why do you think these guys can't stay idle?"
"During this period, private fighting and gambling have become common among the military. Isn't there some way to relieve their pressure and vent their energy?"
Qin Qiong also shook his head helplessly. "It's not that there are none, such as Cuju and Jiaodu, etc. However, they are all competed with each other by some enthusiasts in the military."
"As a general, the most you can do is to give him some food and wine as a reward when you are in a good mood occasionally."
"Then why isn't this a common practice in the military?" Yang Qian couldn't help but wonder.
Qin Qiong immediately became happy. "It seems that my dear brother doesn't know that he has a lot of military resources, so how can he reward them at will?"
"Besides, more than ten sergeants pay their own money and then pay it in dime, and the winner gets the money. This is a common practice in the army."
"If it were handled by the military, I don't know how much energy would be involved. It's really not necessary."
