His Majesty Li Er glanced at Zhu Suiliang lightly, stroked his beard and remained silent.
Zhu Suiliang's psychological quality is naturally much worse than those "old oil men" who have been immersed in the court for many years. He usually talks about calligraphy and appreciates calligraphy and paintings with His Majesty Li Er in private. His Majesty Li Er usually has a gentle and gentle smile. Now facing Li Er,
His Majesty, His Majesty, was so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat and did not even dare to breathe.
In the past, when he accompanied His Majesty Li Er, he could always figure out His Majesty Li Er's likes and dislikes, and his words and deeds were all in his favor. Therefore, he was able to win the favor of His Majesty Li Er and became the most favored minister around the emperor. This even made him the emperor's favorite minister.
His Majesty Li Er is willing to cultivate him in his official career.
However, at this moment, when he looked at His Majesty Li Er's cold eyes, he found that he could not figure out his thoughts at all, let alone how he should respond.
The so-called emperor's mind is generally elusive, and there is no trace of the antelope's horns...
Everyone felt the coldness released by His Majesty Li Er's silence. Just when everyone was wondering whether His Majesty Li Er would kill Changsun Wuji, the former "number one honorable minister" at this critical moment of the Eastern Expedition, suddenly
Seeing His Majesty Li Er, he smiled and said: "Chu Siye's words are reasonable. Auxiliary machine, it is a good thing to be benevolent. The Tang Dynasty should face the world with benevolence. However, in this battle formation,
Either you die or I die. I have the rashness to show kindness to the enemy, but I don’t know how to face the millions of tigers and tigers in the pond? The Master said: Repay the direct with the direct! The enemy’s sword cuts at my tiger and the strong, naturally he will also
The steel knife will still go!"
Changsun Wuji broke into a cold sweat and said: "Your Majesty is wise! I am the old minister who was confused. Please forgive me."
He didn't dare to say any more words of "please forgive". His Majesty Li Er was in a very strange state today, and seemed to be very murderous. If the tide went by and "accomplished" him, it would be very bad.
If he were in Chang'an and worried about all aspects, His Majesty Li Er would naturally not be cruel to him. However, this is the army. The commander is as obedient as he is, and he has control over everyone's life and death. Anyone who violates military disciplines will
, showing off one's head outside the gate is no joke...
His Majesty Li Er laughed loudly and raised his riding whip: "Get up and discuss in front of the army. Naturally, you can speak freely. What's the crime? Duke Zhao is too strict."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Changsun Wuji quickly stood up and wiped his sweaty forehead with the sleeves of his robe. Turning his head, he saw Cheng Wuting looking towards him and grinning, showing a row of big white teeth: "The general is just discussing the matter. Mr. Zhao Guogong is very generous.
Don’t take it to heart.”
Changsun Wuji wished he could kill this bastard with one blow, but he smiled gently on his face: "General Cheng, a young hero, is aggressive and unyielding. I was the same way back then. It's just that things have gone by in vain. I'm a little older. I've seen
I have gone through too many ups and downs, but now I am even more in awe.”
There was a smile on his face, but there was a knife hidden in his words.
So what about the youthful energy? The ups and downs in the court are just for people like you. Only after you have suffered enough and gone through hardships can you know how to be respectful...
Cheng Wuting naturally understood, but was not annoyed at all. He smiled and said: "Zhao Guogong is an elder, broad-minded, and he supports the underachievers. He is really a role model for our generation. Back then, the prince also learned from Zhao Guogong, and now he is highly regarded for his kindness.
The praise from both the government and the public is all due to Duke Zhao."
Sometimes I understand, but I just pretend not to understand.
Isn't it just a weird way of talking? Who wouldn't know how to...
These words are indeed a bit sinister. The prince is indeed kind and forgiving, and the world admires him. But which bone in Changsun Wuji's body can be associated with "generousness"? He is labeled as a "yin person", who specializes in hiding knives in his smile, and is a sinister person behind his back...
…
When the prince was young, Changsun Wuji also taught in the East Palace, but later he gradually became alienated from the prince for unknown reasons. First he supported the King of Wei, and later he supported the King of Jin, vowing to remove the prince from the throne. A narrow-minded person will be punished.
It is indeed a huge irony that you are a "yin man" who has taught a forgiving and kind prince. Cheng Wuting's words simply said clearly: The reason why you, the old man, parted ways with the prince is because your acting style is different from that of the prince.
He was incompatible with others and even went against the grain, because the prince's nature was "benevolence and forgiveness".
This is a slap in Changsun Wuji's face.
However, what can Changsun Wuji say at this time? The difference in status between the two is too great. Even if he can press Cheng Wu to the ground and rub him, who will say that Changsun Wuji is capable? They will only laugh at him for being so big.
Bullying.
"Haha, General Cheng is a young hero with a bright future."
Changsun Wuji sneered, and stood aside, no longer paying attention to Cheng Wuting who was looking for trouble like a hedgehog.
From the bottom of my heart, I have to admire Fang Jun's ability to control people. Although he is a tough guy, he is also the kind of character who doesn't care. He protects relatives, friends and old friends at critical moments, and his subordinates are very good at protecting him, which makes everyone respect him more and more.
Heartbroken.
As long as they are Fang Jun's enemies or opponents, these people will jump out to attack regardless of the occasion...
Cheng Wuting chuckled and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Zhao Guo, for the compliment. I feel ashamed to deserve it."
Naturally, I won’t say more.
Cheng Minzhen stood aside, holding a knife in one hand and stroking his beard with the other, looking at his son with undisguised joy.
This is how a man should be, with a clear stand and no fear of power. As long as he has found his own path, he must go on without any scruples and clearly mark his faction on his forehead. Only in this way can he stay within his own faction.
be reused.
As a person who is submissive and weighs the pros and cons, who will rely on you as a confidant and help?
In a word, men must be arrogant!
Whether facing the enemy on the battlefield or facing the opponent in the court, you must show the domineering spirit that is not afraid of power, be unscrupulous and have a clear-cut flag!
His Majesty Li Er was obviously very optimistic about Cheng Wuting. He looked at him with a smile and said with approval: "This guy is good!"
Cheng Mingzhen was even more overjoyed and quickly pulled Cheng Wuting to bow and salute: "Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty!"
"Uuuuuu——"
The low sound of horns sounded on the other side of the river. Everyone looked up and saw countless Tang troops attacking Jian'an City like a tide, which was still burning in the night.
The torch-like Jian'an City is like an isolated island under the lapping of the tide, and may be overwhelmed anytime and anywhere.
Obviously, the general attack has begun.
His Majesty Li Er was quite surprised, and his face turned gloomy: "How long has it been since then that the general offensive started?"
When a large army attacks a city, the casualties are the most severe. If the enemy resists tenaciously, the casualties will be even greater. Therefore, generally speaking, a general attack will only be launched when the wall is captured at a certain point in the enemy city.
They will break through the opening, then capture the city wall, enter the inner city, and start street fighting.
But how long has it been?
There are tens of thousands of defenders in Jian'an City. Even if some are burned to death by the power of fire bombs, the strength of the guards on the city wall will not be reduced much. Attacking the city hastily will inevitably lead to increased casualties.
The Tang army was naturally not afraid of casualties. Even if the absolute numerical advantage was exchanged for one, it would be enough to wipe out all the Goguryeo troops. However, this kind of reckless attrition was absolutely not allowed by His Majesty Li Er.
Every soldier is a descendant of the Tang Dynasty. Although he must make sacrifices for victory, he cannot die under the enemy's city so lightly.
He regards his people as nothing but grass, so what's the difference between him and Yang Guang?
Zhu Suiliang hurriedly said: "I will go and call the British Duke over for questioning!"
After saying that, he walked quickly towards the river bank.
As the commander-in-chief, His Majesty Li Er marches in person, but he does not have to do everything himself. Since there are famous generals like Li Ji around him, he is only responsible for the formulation of strategies, and the specific operational command is naturally done by Li Ji. At this time, Li Ji has arrived
Riverside commanded the siege.
After a while, Li Ji returned with Zhu Suiliang and came to His Majesty Li Er and said: "Your Majesty clearly knows that it is not because of the recklessness of the humble ministers, but because the number of defenders at the top of Jian'an City is very small and their morale is low. Many city tops have been destroyed by our troops."
Climb up, so the minister issued the order for a general attack, stormed into the city in one fell swoop, and established the victory."
His Majesty Li Er wondered: "There are tens of thousands of defenders in the city, how come there is no one to defend the city?"
Li Jidao said: "I don't know the situation in the city, but the scouts have already entered the city with the army, and the details of the situation in the city will be reported back later."
His Majesty Li Er hummed, looked up, and saw Jian'an City burning like a torch. Countless Tang troops had climbed up to the top of the city with ladders, and the city was covered by the tide. Immediately, the Tang troops climbed over the wall and entered, killing
The enemy troops retreating at the city gate opened the heavy city gate from the inside, and the densely packed Tang troops outside swarmed in and entered the city.
