The people of Goguryeo finally saw how ruthless the Tang Dynasty was this time. If everyone wanted to leave the city, they had to change clothes in a nearby tent. No matter they were men or women, they had to change clothes before they could go out.
If anyone takes something with them, whether it is your personal property or the property of the Goguryeo court, they will be beheaded.
The Tang army was very supportive of Li Xiang's idea. They were full of hatred for Goguryeo. In the previous wars against Goguryeo, we can say that we lost too many brothers. Now we can finally get them back.
Already.
The Goguryeo people also completely regretted it. During the Sui Dynasty, if they had not attacked the border of the Sui Dynasty, I am afraid that Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty would not have targeted them. After Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty targeted them, he would have conquered this place.
It was not successful. Later, after the Tang Dynasty was established, Li Shimin also regarded this place as a target.
If Goguryeo could send envoys and then sign a border treaty with the Tang Dynasty and the two sides could live in harmony, then they would never have been annihilated. However, the rulers of Goguryeo thought they were strong enough and treated the Tang Dynasty hypocritically.
The envoys of the Tang Dynasty, on the other hand, sent a small army to attack the border of the Tang Dynasty, but now they finally played with fire and burned themselves.
When Li Shimin came to attack the last few times, they kept preaching that Goguryeo was protected by gods. Is there still so-called divine protection now? Your capital has been captured, and your king has abandoned you and gone overseas.
Your Prime Minister is kneeling in front of Li Xiang, looking at the capital of Goguryeo with dull eyes.
Li Xiang also looked at Gai Yuan Suwen with great interest. This guy is quite courageous. Even the King of Goguryeo ran away with his men, but this guy still chose to stay. Anyway, he still has a responsibility, but
We are enemies after all...
This guy is still very prestigious in Goguryeo. If we continue to keep this guy, it will not be of any benefit to the rulers of the Tang Dynasty. After we take over here, we will adopt the state and county system, which means that we
If we want to implement the methods of the Tang Dynasty here, your presence hinders us.
"Do you have anything else to say, Prime Minister?"
As a winner, Li Xiang does not need to be too clear, he only needs to speak out his words. Gai Yuan and Su Wenyan are a smart man. Of course he understands what Li Xiang means in his paintings, that is, you are at the end now, don’t
It seems that you have merit in announcing the surrender, but in order to better rule here, you cannot survive.
"There is nothing more to say now. I hope His Highness Taisun can treat the people here kindly."
Gai Yuansu Wen was brought to Li Xiang. He already knew his outcome. If he were in Li Xiang's position, he would not be able to let the prime minister of the empire survive. If the prime minister of the enemy country would only
If such a person sucks the fat of the people and does not have a good impression in the enemy country, then he will survive. However, his reputation among the people is not bad. As long as you live for one day, these people will not be able to truly surrender to the Tang Dynasty.
, so your death is natural.
"You don't have to worry about these things. You are considered a person, so I will give you a chance to kill yourself. And I will bury you here and let you take a good look at this place in ten or a hundred years.
Maybe it’s a different scene here.”
Li Xiang waved his hand, and a soldier next to him brought a plate with a wine flask and a wine glass. This was considered the last poisonous wine.
"This is the specialty of my Datang Dynasty, Datang Tiannong. It can be regarded as the best wine in the world. I believe you have drunk it before. Your position is worthy of this pot of wine. Spend this last moment well.
Time."
After Li Xiang finished speaking, he took the person down and let him drink alone in the tent. The tent was opened on all sides and let him take a last look at the land of Goguryeo. This person was indeed a good person, but for Li Xiang
, after weighing the pros and cons, we have to kill him. If we continue to keep him, it will be detrimental to the rule of the Tang Dynasty.
Another is that this person's ambition is too great, and Li Xiang cannot guarantee that he can control it. If he cannot control it, then such a person may cause instability in the future. The court has spent so much effort to control it.
After occupying Goguryeo, chaos will never be allowed here in the future. Such turbulent elements will be the first targets to be eliminated.
Gai Yuan Suwen was trembling all over. Although he was considered a hero, people are afraid of death until the last moment. If he was not afraid of death, he would not lead his people to surrender in the end. I thought Li Xiang would leave him alone.
Life, there will be a chance to make a comeback in the future, even if it is demoted to a common people, it can be regarded as giving him a chance.
Unexpectedly, although Li Xiang was young, he was impeccable in his work and had already seen through what was going on in his mind. Therefore, within half a stick of incense, Li Xiang had already ended their relationship with each other.
The meeting didn't give him a chance to show off at all.
He also wanted to show Li Xiang his abilities, hoping to continue serving the Tang Dynasty like Prime Minister Tuyuhun, but it was a pity that Li Xiang did not give him this opportunity.
They are both heroes and capable people, so what both parties are thinking can be seen clearly with just one movement. Li Xiang knows that the person in front of him is not easy to control, so we might as well not go to that trouble. Maybe you can help me.
Goguryeo was managed very well, but in the current situation, people can manage it well without you, and your role has been reduced to a minimum.
"The time has come. If you don't do it yourself, then we will have to give you a lift. It will be a bit ugly by then. After all, you are also the prime minister of Goguryeo, so you don't need us to give you a lift, right?"
Although Li Xiang left, Qin Huaiyu was still standing nearby. His only task today was to watch this guy drink the poisonous wine, then confirm that this guy was dead, and finally find a place to bury him. So today his
The task is completed.
"Don't worry, General. I'll be on my way now."
Gai Yuan Suwen knew very well that as long as he died well, the women in the family could survive. If he was still struggling here, then I am afraid that the whole family would not be able to survive.
According to the imperial court's order, the entire family was supposed to be beheaded, and Li Xiang was given some face, so that all the women in the family over forty years old could survive, and the others were beheaded according to the law...??
