Chapter 3037 Let the world know that those who offend the Tang Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away! (Part 2)
At this moment, a minister behind him whispered to his father, Yuan Jingtu.
"Da Molizhi, that person is most likely that Cheng Sanlang."
"Cheng Sanlang..." Yuan Jingtu almost squeezed out these three words from between his teeth.
His eyes were suddenly full of resentment. According to the intelligence collected, it was the gunpowder weapon made by Cheng Sanlang.
It was he who transformed the Dengzhou Navy, and it was he who led the Tang Navy to directly destroy the Japanese Empire.
It was also him who, with hundreds of musketeers and cavalry, held back Gao Yanshou's nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, ultimately causing Goguryeo's counterattack to fail.
It was he who actually managed the entire Liaodong area in an orderly manner in a very short period of time.
He made those 200,000 prisoners of war be honest and well-behaved, and even sided with the Tang Dynasty. He also made the Khitan and Mohe tribes start big business with the Tang Dynasty trading houses, and only copper coins were left in their eyes.
Goguryeo's meticulous spies spent countless lives but did nothing, wasting their last bit of time.
In the end, the brother had to commit suicide, and the emperor and ministers of Goguryeo had to leave the city in humiliation to surrender...
"My father-in-law, are you nervous?"
"Hmm, eh?" Li Shimin was trying to act like the old god was there. When he heard Cheng Sanlang's question, he suddenly became unhappy.
He turned his head and glared viciously at the little bastard who had exposed his disguise.
"Stop talking nonsense to me, why am I so nervous? This is obviously excitement, okay?"
"Yes, yes, you should be excited. After all, Goguryeo has been a country since the founding of the country in the second year of Emperor Yuan's reign in the Western Han Dynasty.
It has existed for nearly seven hundred years and has repeatedly invaded the Central Plains. It has been a trouble for the Central Plains in all dynasties..."
Yes, it has been almost seven hundred years since the founding of Goguryeo, and the Central Plains has already experienced the Western Han Dynasty, the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms, the Two Jin Dynasties, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the former Sui Dynasty, and now the Tang Dynasty.
There were six or seven major turmoils, but after Goguryeo was originally founded, it did not have the current situation.
Because Goguryeo clumsily clung to the Liaodong and Korean peninsulas and was located on the edge, the Central Plains Dynasty paid no attention to Goguryeo.
However, with the wars of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties for more than three hundred years, Goguryeo saw the internal disputes in the Central Plains and began to gain the courage to take advantage of the opportunity to become bigger and stronger.
Since the Cao Wei period, Goguryeo has been professing vassalage to the Central Plains dynasty while constantly invading border areas, gradually expanding its sphere of influence to eastern Liaoning and penetrating into western Liaoning.
Their behavior naturally angered the Central Plains Empire, but the land of Liaodong was not only remote, but more importantly, the climate was cold, and supplies from the Central Plains were inconvenient.
The two emperors of the Sui Dynasty all conquered Goguryeo, but they all gained power but failed to gain any points, and in the end they had to return in hatred.
This further fueled Goguryeo's arrogance. It was like this Goguryeo that was still alive and kicking for nearly seven hundred years despite the conquests of the Central Plains Empire.
However, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, with only a few elite troops, defeated Goguryeo in one go.
After such a comparison, it can be seen that the martial arts of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty far exceeded that of the Sui Dynasty.
Cheng Sanlang has a sharp tongue and flatters his father-in-law, which is smooth and silky without any flaws.
Hearing that Li Shimin's anger turned into joy, yes, I still remember that at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, many people were murmuring in private that the Tang Dynasty was not as good as the Sui Dynasty.
Whether it was political science or martial arts, especially when he first came to the throne, there were more voices like this in both the government and the opposition.
Even if he defeats the enemy on the grassland, even if he destroys the Gaochang Kingdom in the Western Region.
But after all, there are still some people, especially those aristocratic families, who are still chirping, you Tang Dynasty is really capable, you Li Shimin is really capable, then go and attack Goguryeo.
Only if you can defeat Goguryeo can you, Li Shimin, be considered awesome. Only if the Tang Dynasty can surpass the former Sui Dynasty can it be regarded as a veritable kingdom of heaven and the leader of the world.
now
, the kings and ministers of Goguryeo have already arrived, and the gate of the capital of Goguryeo has been opened.
Soon, he will become the conqueror of Goguryeo. At that time, he will become the conqueror of Goguryeo.
Who in the world dares to point at me and say that I am not as good as the emperor of the previous dynasty, and who dares to say that the Tang Dynasty is not as good as the Sui Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin's mood became more and more agitated.
Looking at his father-in-law, who had a red face and was wearing a helmet and armor, like a scarab beetle, Cheng Sanlang, who was also wearing a helmet and armor, felt that he was more powerful and elegant than his father-in-law.
Turning his eyes towards the Goguryeo monarchs and ministers who were walking slowly in front of them, Cheng Sanlang was also high-spirited and looking forward to gaining power.
My father-in-law is where he is today, thanks to me, the most filial and good son-in-law in the Tang Dynasty.
Otherwise, my father-in-law would most likely have experienced the same thing as in another historical time and space.
He had already failed in Liaodong and could only return in disgrace and disgrace, leaving behind a less than perfect emperor's career.
How could they be so arrogant and proud like today in front of Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo?

Finally, Gao Anshun led a group of Goguryeo officials to a place ten feet away from the golden mount of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, which no one dared to look at.
Zhao Kun had already raised his arm and stopped shouting. He saw Li Shimin, who was guarding the cavalry warriors of the Tang Dynasty, looking at him indifferently.
Gao Anshun saw his father Yuan Jingtu's beckoning gaze. He was so nervous that he slowly prostrated himself on the ground.
He raised the box containing the seal of the King of Goguryeo high above his head.
"The guilty minister Gao Anshun led the people of Goguryeo to surrender to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty..."
Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the king of the Celestial Kingdom, pulled the reins of his horse and let the unusually tall horse under him move forward slowly until it reached the land promised by the king of Goguryeo, and then stopped.
Looking at these Goguryeo monarchs and ministers who prostrated themselves in the soil, there were also the Goguryeo soldiers in the distance who had thrown away their weapons and also prostrated themselves on the ground, as well as the Goguryeo royal capital with its gate open.
Li Shimin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, tried hard to control his emotions, and shouted in a deep voice.
"Goguryeo is a vassal state, but it ignores the generosity of the higher country and raises numerous armies to invade our borders and plunder our people..."
"I once issued an edict, ordering your country's lord to go to the Tang Dynasty to plead guilty. Instead of showing any remorse, your country became more and more wanton and violent, working with the Baekje woman to destroy our Tang Dynasty vassal Silla..."
"Since your country disobeys the king's rule, I will personally come to punish you. I will let all the countries in the world know that those who offend our Tang Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are!"
The emperor's voice was like the roar of a dragon, roaring all over the country. Tens of thousands of warriors from the Tang Dynasty raised their swords and weapons, pointing to the sky and shouting wildly.
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is victorious! The Tang Dynasty is victorious!..."
The sound was like rolling thunder, passing by the Goguryeo monarchs and ministers who were lying on the ground asking for surrender, passing by the royal capital of Goguryeo, and also swept across the Ali River.
Cheng Sanlang also pulled out the iron mace from his waist, and thrust the tip of the mace straight into the sky, roaring like thunder. How majestic and majestic... Is there anywhere else in the world that can block the direction of the Tang Dynasty's soldiers?
