"The Eastern Capital must not fall into the hands of the Li Army. Since the Tang Army refuses to surrender, then our army must surrender and help him defend the Eastern Capital..."
"What?!"
"This is impossible..."
"You must not..."
"Keng, Keng, Keng..."
Gao Jiong quickly added, but before he finished speaking, Yu Juluo and the surrounding Sui generals all turned pale and shouted.
Dozens of Sui generals, great monks, etc. present drew their swords and pointed them at Gao Jiong.
I have to admit that so far, the Sui Empire is still the orthodoxy in the world and still has countless loyal ministers.
On the other hand, the family members of the Sui generals who went on the expedition basically stayed in the Western Capital. What would happen to their families if they surrendered? Most of them were from noble families, and their families were so large that betrayal was not allowed!
"shut up!"
Yu Juluo frowned, then shouted loudly like a thunderbolt, then glared at everyone present, and shouted with great luck:
"What are you doing? Let Prime Minister Gao finish first!"
"Ming Jin! Raise the white flag and demand negotiation..."
Gao Qiao gritted his teeth, looked around at everyone present with sharp eyes, and ordered in a deep voice.
After many days of fierce fighting, the Sui army gained the upper hand. However, there was no crushing advantage. Gao Jiong was so anxious that his hair turned a lot whiter. After racking his brains, he could only make this decision.
Now that you have said it, you can't give it up halfway, otherwise it will be like "confusing words to confuse the public and disrupting the morale of the military"!
"ah?!"
Everyone who had just been restrained by Yu Juluo was once again stunned.
"Bang the gong, raise the flag..."
Yu Juluo could roughly understand Gao Jiong's thoughts and also understood the serious situation at hand, so he was the first to advise Gao Jiong and naturally agreed with him with all his strength.
In any case, Yu Juluo believes in Gao Qiong's loyalty to the Sui Empire. Even if he cannot fully understand it for the time being, he will support it first!
"When, when, when..."
The two heavenly kings spoke at the same time, and General Sui, who objected fiercely in his heart, could only hold back forcefully.
The clear sound of the gong echoed throughout the eastern capital.
The fierce sound of war drums and the loud shouts of killing gradually subsided...
The two sides who were engaged in a fierce and bloody battle were stunned for a moment, and they all stopped at the same time and retreated from the confrontation.
After a high-intensity fierce battle, the soldiers on both sides are now quite tired, and subconsciously they don't want to fight anymore!
"Gao Xiang...this is..."
Wang Dingyanping, who was holding two guns and covered with evil spirit and blood, came back with red eyes, stared at Gao Jiong and asked.
His eyes were red because he was so angry, but he didn't have much objection to Gao Jiong.
Not only Ding Yanping, but also Pei Yuanqing and many Sui generals who rushed back wanted to ask this question. They all looked at Gao Jiong, waiting for Gao Jiong's explanation.
"Our army paid such a heavy price and finally gathered a large army, as if it was a desperate attack on the city. Why?"
Gao Jong slowly looked around the Sui generals and asked solemnly.
"Well……"
Ding Yanping was startled, and responded without hesitation and angrily: "Of course it is for the Eastern Capital! One of the three major capitals, the Immortal Capital, as long as the Eastern Capital is captured, our Sui Empire will have the foundation for a comeback.
Isn’t that obvious?”
"That's right! What the King of Double Guns said is right. But what's the most fundamental purpose?" Gao Qiao nodded and asked again.
Ding Yanping straightened his body and responded loudly: "The most fundamental purpose...to occupy the eastern and western capitals, suppress the world, and repeat the glory of the Sui Dynasty!"
"wrong!"
Gao Jiao responded with an affirmative tone, which made Ding Yanping, Yu Juluo, Pei Yuanqing and other Sui troops present, all stunned.
Not for this, why?!
The Sui army thought it had too many troops and wanted to kill more?!
"The most fundamental purpose... is to prevent Dongdu from falling into the hands of the Li Army. Otherwise, everyone will know the consequences!"
Gao Qiao looked around at everyone present with sharp eyes and responded with a heavy tone.
"..."
Everyone was silent. Thinking about it, this is really the case. Otherwise, why would they gather a large army and attack Dongdu at all costs when they are planning to evacuate? Are they really too dissatisfied with their longevity and too many of their own troops?!
"The latest information..."
Gao Qiao looked around at everyone again, said in a deep voice rather helplessly, stewed the system, and then continued with a serious expression:
"The Li army used countless great monks and stored treasures to frantically transport equipment, stones, wood, etc. to Hangu Pass. The raging fire at Hangu Pass burned the sky. In a short time, our army was unable to get through Hangu Pass. Even if
King Taiping and King Zhenwu join forces, but they can only look back and sigh..."
Having said this, Gao Jiong paused for a moment to let everyone digest the information, and then continued:
"In addition, at Pingjin Pass and Yique Pass, the Li Army's movements are getting bigger and bigger, and there are plans to attack and blockade them in ten cases. If these two passes are captured, our army will be a turtle in the urn! Fortunately, Commander Yin and Qu have already arrived at the two passes.
Pass, it will be difficult for Lijun to capture it even if it takes time..."
"call……"
Pei Yuanqing, who was nervous, breathed a sigh of relief and replied angrily:
"Isn't that what happened? The two passes are still in the hands of our army. Even if we can't capture Dongdu, we will have to evacuate at the worst!"
"Then..." Gao Jiong looked at Pei Yuanqing and asked.
Pei Yuanqing looked at Gao Jiong in confusion, and responded naturally: "Then... it will be our country's turn to sit back and watch the Li army attack Dongdu!"
"Given the situation in the Tang state and the power of the Li army, can the Tang army defend the eastern capital?" Gao Jiong asked again.
Pei Yuanqing opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond or what Gao Jiong wanted to say.
Yu Juluo suddenly understood, shook his head and replied: "I think... Xuan! The Tang army will definitely not be able to defend the Eastern Capital, and it is estimated that they will not be able to hold it for long!"
"Isn't this done?"
Gao Jiong looked around at everyone in annoyance and responded quickly, then quickly said:
"No matter what, Dong cannot fall into the hands of the Li army. There are only two paths left for our army, and even our country: first, capture Dongdu at all costs, occupy it and block the Li army; second, assist the Tang army,
Resist the Li army..."
"I understand! But, this is too..."
After all, Ding Yanping was one of the Great Sui Heavenly Kings. He quickly reacted, but his expression was strange and hesitant.
Before this moment, the two sides were engaged in a crazy and bloody battle, regardless of the cost, risking their lives to practice each other's techniques.
Now in the blink of an eye, we must form an alliance, even surrendering to the Tang army...
How weird is this idea? It’s completely impossible to understand and accept!
Gao Qiao spread his hands and explained helplessly: "The first possibility, looking at the situation of the Tang army, is that they want to hold on to the end, but it is basically hopeless. Then there is only the second possibility..."
"Our army can recruit the King of Tang to surrender... Why surrender to the Tang army?" Pei Yuanqing was confused and couldn't understand his answer.
"The problem is... the Tang army won't surrender!" Gao Jiong responded without hesitation.
"If you don't surrender, then..."
Pei Yuanqing blurted out, but paused mid-sentence, "If you don't surrender, fight." Isn't this back to square one?!
Yu Juluo nodded slowly, and reminded with a change of expression: "Then our army does not need to surrender. We can discuss with the Tang army. Our army abandons the Eastern Capital. As long as the Tang Army can defend the Eastern Capital, we can provide certain support."
...With the shrewdness of the King of Tang, he would not refuse this kind of free advantage! If he wanted to surrender to the Li Kingdom, he would not wait until now, and the Li Army would not stop at various passes and ignore the battle situation in Dongdu unless he rescued them.
Got it!"
"So... armistice and peace talks!"

Yes, this plot is not easy to write. Shadow is racking his brains.
It may be a bit complicated. If you don’t understand it, if you read it a few times, it shouldn’t be difficult to understand. To put it simply, it’s a confusing truth!
