Luoyang, the eastern capital, and the western city wall.?
Wisps of thick smoke rose, and blood that had not yet solidified but was still bright red spread all over the city walls and everywhere in the city, indicating the fierce battle between the two sides.
The towering city walls, the stairs inside the city walls, the ground inside the city, etc. were densely packed with people, a sea of people, and the iron-blooded evil clouds still covered the roof like dark clouds.
An armistice was declared, and after peace talks, the two sides ceased fighting.
Gao Jong loudly requested a meeting with the Tang king, but he asked the commander-in-chief of the Sui army to go to the Tang army camp to have a meeting. The Tang king Li Yuan was unwilling and did not dare to take risks easily, lest he be plotted by the enemy.
When Gao Jiong was about to lead his troops there, Yu Juluo stopped him and demanded: "Gao Xiang, you are the supreme commander, how can you easily take risks? Why don't I go?!"
"No, for such a big event, I have to go there in person. Only if we can convince the King of Tang can we show our sincerity. Brother Ding (Ding Yanping) and Pei Xiaozi can follow. Brother Yu and the generals will be required to guard the army.
!”
Gao Jiao waved his hand in response, and solemnly looked around at the Sui generals present, pleading in a sincere tone.
After a while...
Gao Yan took only Ding Yanping and Pei Yuanqing with him, and slowly walked down the city wall towards the Tang army's camp.
The densely packed Tang army, with flags and banners, swords and guns like a forest, and a frightening aura, made Gao Jiong and others feel as if they were in a cold purgatory, with great pressure. However, the three of them walked calmly and calmly as if no one was around...
"No way? Does King Xuanxiang really want to lead the Sui army and surrender to our army?"
Seeing that Gao Qiao led two people and resolutely went deep into his own army formation, Li Shentong, who was the most powerful, murmured in disbelief, paused, and said with expectation:
"If we can keep King Xuanxiang, King of Double Spears and Silver Demon in our army, the fighting strength of the Sui army will be greatly reduced, and the Eastern Capital will have no worries!"
Gao Qiao's previous words were spoken in public, and it was inevitable that Tang Jun's informants were among them, and they quickly reached the ears of Tang King Li Yuan.
In fact, this is the main reason why Tang Wang Li Yuan was willing to go to the front line to talk with Gao Jun and others. Otherwise, the Sui army would be unable to attack for a long time. Who knows if it is a trap?
Today's Tang Dynasty is not what it used to be. It is not the peak time when there were many famous generals in the past. There are only a few famous generals such as Li Yuan, Pei Ji, Liu Wenjing, Li Xiaogong, Duan Zhixuan and so on. Even Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and others also left the army separately. The Sui Army
Already.
If Li Yuan, the king of Tang Dynasty, was killed, the Tang country would definitely be in chaos and it would be completely hopeless!
"You must not..."
Li Xiaogong was shocked and said quickly, and then quickly continued: "The Prime Minister is worthy of being a high minister. He has a long-term vision and a far-sighted vision. I admire him very much. I believe this is also his helpless choice, and it is also our best choice. We absolutely cannot
There’s more civil unrest!”
"That's right! The Prime Minister has shown sincerity, and we should also show the utmost sincerity. At least we should not retaliate with malice or murderous intent!"
Liu Wenjing immediately followed suit, then looked around at everyone present, and then solemnly said: "Everyone, put away your hostility and murderous intentions, and anyone who sabotages this peace talk will be punished with treason!"
Although Gao Jun and other three people came to the Tang army camp for peace talks this time, there were only three of them. However, under the great reputation, there are no empty warriors, two kings and one demon, how can we despise?!
Tang Wang Li Yuan did not take it lightly and still mobilized a large number of great monks and strong men to take precautions.
Not only Li Xiaogong, Li Shentong, Liu Wenjing and other celebrities, but also celebrities from powerful sects such as Shaolin Temple, Baihua Palace, White Horse Temple, etc. were also invited to guard, and there were more than 200 Guangda monks!
It is a pity that since the anti-king coalition failed to attack Jiangdu, the Tang state has suffered hundreds of battles, its prestige has dropped a lot, and it has lost the support of many forces. Otherwise, this lineup would be even bigger.
"Facts have proved that my king's persistence is right..."
Pei Ji looked at Tang Wang Li Yuan with admiration on his face and bowed to flatter him.
The civil servants and generals of the Tang State who were present were suddenly stunned. Fortunately, the Tang King Li Yuan had always insisted on his opinion and refused to surrender. Otherwise, if the Tang State had either surrendered to Li Guo or surrendered to the Sui Dynasty, he would have become a minister long ago!
I would rather have a chicken head than a phoenix tail.
There are still many people who still hold this idea. If the Li Army and the Sui Army are blocked this time, the Tang State still has great hope of "making a comeback and regaining its glory"!
"My King Shengming!"
"My king is as wise as the ocean!"
"My king is destined to return. Before, it was just a training. There were no dangers but no dangers!"
"My king..."
The civil servants and generals present all spoke out flatteringly, which made Li Yuan feel a little light-headed and elated!
However, many people remember that the two most valued sons of Li Yuan, including Crown Prince Li Jiancheng and Prince Li Yuanji, had left the Tang Kingdom and defected to other countries. Could it be that after the Li and Sui armies retreated, the two princes betrayed themselves again and returned to China?!
"King Xuanxiang, King of Double Spears, General Zhengdong of the Sui Dynasty, arrived..."
Everyone in the Tang Dynasty was talking a lot, and a loud shout came out, causing the discussion to suddenly become silent.
The densely packed Tang troops in front retreated to the left and right to make way for a passage...
The peace talks between the two countries were held at the west gate of Chunhe City, the outermost city in the west. It belonged to the Tang Army's position, but it was not within the city. Both sides could accept it!
At the gate of the west city of Chunhe City, hundreds of thousands of Tang troops gathered in a dense crowd. It was a real sea of people, and the evil spirit condensed into the clouds.
"It is a great honor for the high minister to come..."
The figures of Gao Jie and the others appeared at the other end of the passage, and Li Yuan stood up, walked a few steps forward, and greeted them loudly.
After taking just a few steps, a servant stopped Li Yuan and prevented him from moving forward.
"If you think about it carefully, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. Times have changed, which makes people sigh!"
Gao Qiao and the other three didn't care. The old-looking Gao Qiao, with sharp eyes and the light of profound wisdom, stared at Li Yuan and sighed.
While talking, Li Yuan was nearly a hundred meters away when he was stopped by the guards of the Tang Dynasty, preventing him from getting any closer!
"Yuan is wearing battle armor, so it's inconvenient for him to salute. I'm sorry for not being able to greet you from afar!"
Li Yuan did not move on. He was extremely ashamed and humble. He apologized in a very low manner, completely considering himself a junior.
Gao Jiong smiled and didn't care, even though Li Yuan was indeed his junior before.
These were polite words from Li Yuan. Everything was obviously planned and should not be taken seriously.
"I'll get straight to the point! In any case, the king of Tang is a kinsman of the Sui Dynasty after all. The disagreement between us is an internal conflict. Our own blood is thicker than water, so it's easy to say anything. Now the southern army is marching towards Henan, and its front is pointing eastward.
All, this is an external threat! We should put aside our prejudices, work together, share the same hatred of the enemy, and deal with the outside world as one, what does King Tang think?"
Gao Jiong was a cheerful person. He slowly looked around at everyone present, finally looked at Li Yuan, and asked directly.
"What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true, and I think so too. I wonder what the Prime Minister has to say?"
Li Yuan responded with a smile and still had a humble attitude, but he said that he had changed, and now it was business!
Seriously speaking, Li Tang was really a royal family member of the Sui Empire.
Li Yuan's biological mother and Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian's biological mother are biological sisters, so Li Yuan and Yang Jian are cousins. And Yang Jian is older than Li Yuan, so Yang Jian is Li Yuan's cousin. And the civil and military emperor Yang Guang is Yang Jian's son, so he should be called Li Yuan.
uncle.
Now the Sui Gong Emperor Yang You of the Sui Empire should be called Uncle Li Yuan...
The emperors of the Sui and Tang Dynasties were naturally one family, and their relationship was very close! (To be continued.) 8
