Chapter 2886 After placing the Japanese on Tanluo Island, come to see me in Dengzhou
All in all, under the spiritual inspiration of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who was far away in Luoyang, and inspired by the collective sense of honor of the Great Tang Dynasty.
Cheng Sanlang and other martial arts disciples, with thousands of Tang Dynasty elites, defeated the Japanese country with more than 200,000 soldiers and more than a thousand warships.
The Japanese leader Xiao De and his mother-in-law were so arrogant that they called themselves "I" and ordered the Japanese subjects to call them "His Majesty the Emperor".
After seeing that his elite division, which was several times the number of soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty, was defeated by Wu Bi of the Tang Dynasty who was one against ten.
The Japanese countries also surrendered to the Tang Dynasty and joined the Tang Dynasty in attacking the Japanese countries. They saw themselves being killed by the Japanese countries together.
Emperor Kotoku, who was desperate, could only lead a group of Japanese ministers to tie themselves up in the city. The eldest brother of the Japanese prince, knowing that he had done many evil things, committed suicide.
At this point, the story of Cheng Sanlang and a group of martial arts disciples finally came to an end.
This wonderful report of victory, which was like a storybook, made the civil and military officers of the Tang Dynasty and the surrounding naval officers and soldiers intoxicated.
Li Shimin also felt relieved after hearing this, and felt as happy as eating ice cream in the dog days of summer.
Although the boy Cheng Sanlang's victory documents contained a lot of personal information and a lot of false information, the descriptions of himself, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, were so penetrating and vivid that they were still of great practical significance...
Finally, after reading the victory document, everyone began to think crazily while savoring it. What should they say next?
His Majesty said before that he wanted to conquer the Japanese state, but as soon as he finished speaking, the Japanese state was already wiped out by Cheng Sanlang's evil moth. This made everyone not know how to be obedient for a moment.
For example, after suffering from diabetes, Ma Zhou, who was still healthy and alive because he listened to Cheng Sanlang's sincere words and became more strict than usual, also had a change of heart.
He didn't know much about Japan Island, but there was one problem. His majesty's bold words here before were definitely not bragging.
He must have really wanted to defeat Goguryeo before launching a war against Japan.
Years of war, for a dynasty, it is not bragging to say that war will lead to death. This was not the case in the former Sui Dynasty.
But before everyone could think about how to persuade His Majesty with words, Cheng Sanlang only relied on thousands of Tang Dynasty elites and half a navy to capture the Japanese country.
As a result, although the important military officials of the Tang Dynasty who had been sharpening their swords were a little unhappy, they were not completely unhappy.
After all, almost all the sons and nephews of the great generals of the Tang Dynasty were under the command of Cheng Sanlang, and together they achieved the feat of destroying the country.
Therefore, this is definitely the most beneficial and cost-effective war to destroy the country.
Ma Zhou's thoughts whirled and he strode forward to salute Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, the Japanese country is disobedient and rebellious. First it offends His Majesty Tian Yan, then it dares to raise troops to help the thieves behind, and even more violently conquers the Japanese islands..."
"... His crimes are too numerous to describe. Fortunately, our army, the King of the Tang Dynasty, came to the Japanese island to relieve the suffering of the people of the Japanese island countries..."
Ma Zhou's words were quite high-level, clarifying the justice of the Tang Dynasty king's army in attacking unsubordinate countries such as the Japanese. At the same time, they also demonstrated the important role of the Tang Dynasty as a protective umbrella for the weak in the world.
A group of civil and military personnel from the Tang Dynasty once again stood up and congratulated His Majesty.
"Father, there is one more thing. Brother Chu Bi told me. He has led the navy to escort the Japanese royal family on their way back to Dengzhou."
"Furthermore, the leaders of the Japanese countries have also decided to go to the Tang Dynasty with Brother Bi, hoping to meet with the emperor."
Li Shimin looked pleased, nodded and smiled.
"Okay, okay, that boy did a good job, just like how my Tang Dynasty defeated Gaochang in the past..."
In the second half of the sentence, Li Shimin suddenly became speechless. He thought of something, he was His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Now he has led hundreds of civil and military ministers to Dengzhou, and is preparing to go north to conquer Goguryeo in person after wandering around here for a while.
However, Cheng Sanlang had already defeated the Japanese country. According to the precedent, once the Tang Dynasty defeated the unsubordinate country, it would definitely sacrifice the imperial temple.
At the same time, they will also accept congratulations from envoys from various countries, but the problem is that it will take time to accomplish these things.
Not only Li Shimin, but also a number of civil and military officials also realized this big problem.
They couldn't help but look at each other. Is it possible that a group of people following His Majesty, just jumped to the place of Dengzhou, shook their heads, and then rushed back to Luoyang, and then waited for Cheng Sanlang to go to Luoyang to offer prisoners?
What kind of person is Li Ke? He immediately realized that his father was probably in a difficult situation at the moment. He rolled his eyes and suggested in a low voice.
"Father, how about I tell Brother Chubi and I will first detain those Japanese prisoners of war on Tamra Island until my father's personal expedition to Goguryeo is completed..."
When Li Ke said this, the eyes of Ma Zhou and other officials standing nearby also brightened up. Oh, this is a good idea. After all, no one wants to wander back and forth in the cold weather.
Your Majesty has not been a horse racing emperor for many years, and he is certainly not happy about it.
"Well... let's do this. You should try to inform Cheng Sanlang and ask him to settle those Japanese people on Tamluo Island first and then come to Dengzhou to see me as soon as possible."
"In addition, the leaders of the Japanese island countries also came to pick them up, and I also gave them some comfort.
When Goguryeo is pacified, we, the Tang Dynasty, will hold an unprecedented grand ceremony for the sacrifice of prisoners..."
Li Shimin's words made Ma Zhoushen on the side think so, and he quickly stepped forward to agree.
"Your Majesty's words make sense. Now, in the Tang Dynasty's attack on Goguryeo, we have already hit the target and have no choice but to take action. All other matters can be put aside for a while."
"But Your Majesty, please tell me what the regulations are for receiving the heads of the Japanese countries..."

Jin Yuxin stood on the Silla naval battleship, looking ahead blankly. Behind him, the Silla soldiers with the same withered faces were sending thin wooden boxes one by one into the cabin.
From time to time, the sound of low crying made Jin Yuxin's eyelids jump, and he was filled with anger, but he was helpless.
From the time they first landed on the islands, out of the 30,000 Silla elites who had all been groomed and tailed, less than 20,000 were able to leave the islands alive.
First, when he led a large army towards Asuka Castle, the capital of the Japanese king, he frequently encountered sneak attacks and ambushes by those Japanese soldiers who were not afraid of death.
The soldiers and horses of Silla were frightened three times a day, and they were exhausted. At the cost of thousands of lives, they arrived at Asuka Castle, the capital of the Japanese king.
He originally thought that the situation was decided, but he never expected that the Japanese country would launch a desperate counterattack.
Tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers and horses took the initiative to attack the Silla soldiers who were monitoring the four gates.
That kind of desperate offensive made Jin Yuxin feel that he might not be able to return to Silla. Fortunately, the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty came to help, and this stopped the decline.
