Gao Zang's question made the minister bow his head, and Gao Zang saw the minister's performance and immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Donghu and Bohai They reached an agreement with the Qi State of the Imperial Princes, allowing the Qi State to annex us, and in return, the Qi State helped them defend against the Xiongnu!" The minister replied, Takazo.

When Gao Zang heard this, he immediately roared angrily: "This Donghu and Bohai Kingdom are so ungrateful!" ”

Gao Zang didn't expect that Donghu and Bohai would reach an agreement with Qi, in fact, they also thought deeply.

After all, the Xiongnu are in front of them, they want to resist the Xiongnu, it is impossible to have extra troops to rescue Goguryeo, there are few soldiers, and secondly, sacrifice a Goguryeo to get a stronger ally to deal with the Xiongnu, why not?

Takazo looked at the door, looked, he walked out, all the ministers knelt on the ground, he didn't expect everything to come so suddenly.

Gao Zang asked again: "I, Gao Zang, am willing to fight to the death, and whoever wants to follow me will abandon his life to follow me!" ”

"I'm waiting, I'm willing to fight to the death with the king!" The ministers shouted one after another.

Although Goguryeo was dying at this time, and there was no chance of life, as a king, he had the dignity that a king should have, and he was unwilling to live.

"Life in the world is very short, rather than living for a few years, it is better to die in battle!" Takazo said to the person beside him.

"Pass my word that the soldiers who are willing to follow me to fight to the death will stay in Pyongyang, and those who are not willing to fight to the death will give them some money and let them leave!"

"As for the people in the city, let them leave too, stay here, and when the city is broken, the army of this Qi country will definitely slaughter the city to show their victory!" Takazo said to everyone.

Takazo knew that the chances of victory in this battle were almost non-existent, and he did not want the people of the city to die with him.

As the capital of Goguryeo, the city of Pyongyang is broken, the Qi army will definitely show its victory and inspire the soldiers to massacre the city.

"No!"

Gozang's message continued, and some of the citygoers chose to leave, but some chose to stay in Pyongyang and fight the enemy with Gozang.

As for the soldiers with armor, none of them are leaving, as soldiers, who run away when the country is in danger, what kind of soldiers are they?

As for the people of the city leaving, this is in the past, after all, people are selfish, and it is impossible for them all to accompany you to death, after all, some people drag their families with their mouths.

However, when the news reached Gaozang, Gaozang was still very happy, because only two-tenths of the people who left Pyongyang City, and the rest were willing to follow Gaozang to defend Pyongyang City to the death.

Ten days later, Qi Jiao's army finished resting and approached Pyongyang with a large army.

The entire city of Pyongyang was surrounded by Qi Jiao, who was wearing a black robe at this time, sitting on a chariot, looking at the Pyongyang city in front of him.

"Tell Gao Zang that as long as he is willing to open the city and surrender, I can write to King Huan, make him a marquis, let him enjoy Yulu, and spend this life peacefully!" Qi Jie said to the person beside him.

Liu Yan held the longbow in his hand, and with Qi Jiao's letter on the longbow, he pulled the bow, shot an arrow, and went directly to the tower of Pyongyang City.

"The general is good at archery!" Qi Jiao on the side clapped his hands and said to Liu Yan.

Liu Yan nodded flatly, did not speak, and Qi Jie did not say anything, he knew that Liu Yan was taciturn, this was his character.

At this time, it was in the royal palace of Goguryeo.

Takakazo was wearing golden armor with a long sword at his waist, and a beautiful woman was sorting out the armor on Takakzo's body.

"I'm here, waiting for your triumphant return!" The beautiful woman looked at Takazo with a smile and said.

Gao Zang nodded and looked at the beautiful woman: "Thank you for being with me at this time......"

Before Qi Jiao's troops arrived in Pyongyang City, Gozang asked him to escort his wife and his children away, but this beautiful woman refused to leave, intending to accompany Gozang to guard the Pyongyang City together.

This made Gao Zang very moved, and felt that marrying this beautiful woman was the happiest thing in his life.

"Haruhime, if I die, I feel that I am also worth it, with a woman like you, accompany me!" Takazo looked at the beautiful woman and said.

The beautiful woman's surname is Li, her name is Chun, and she is the most favored of Gao Zang's wives.

"What are you talking about, king, say dead, such unlucky words, you auspicious people have their own heavenly appearance, you won't die!" Li Chun looked at Gao Zang and said.

Gao Zang just smiled slightly, alive, he also thought, just live today, live tomorrow, but can he live the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow?

He didn't dare to think about this, and he had to rush to the front to boost the morale of the army, if he was behind, the Qi army would be easier to break through Pingcheng.

However, Li Chun's refusal to leave Pyongyang City can prove that Li Chun loves Gao Zang very much, and she has lived up to Gao Zang's love for her, and Gao Zang is also very pleased.

In the moment of his own crisis, he still has his favorite woman to accompany him.

At this time, the soldiers ran in, very panicked, and after Gao Zang saw the soldiers: "Is there something happening in a panic?" ”

The soldier handed the arrow shot by Liu Yan to Gao Zang, who took off the letter on the arrow and looked at it, then tore it up and said, "Persuade me to surrender?" This is impossible, the country can be broken, the family can die, but I will never surrender! ”

Gao Zang looked at Li Chun: "I'll go to the front line, you can wait for me here!" ”

Li Chun nodded: "I'm waiting for the king's triumphant return, when the time comes, you sing, I'll dance!" ”

Gao Zang nodded and left, he came to the city tower and looked at Qi Jie outside the city: "Dare to ask Your Excellency, it is Qi Guo Meng Weijun, Qi Jie Your Excellency!" ”

Qi Jie saw Gao Zang on the city tower, he stood up, walked to the front, and looked at Gao Zang: "That's right, I'm Qi Zang!" ”

"I have always been relatively peaceful with your country, so why did your country come to my city of Pyongyang?" Gao Zang looked at Qi Jie and asked.

"My King Huan has the ambition to expand his territory, and Goguryeo has repeatedly violated my borders, so King Huan sent me to pacify Goguryeo!" Qi Jie looked at Gao Zang and said.

"Your Excellency should have read my letter, as long as you are willing to surrender, I am willing to ask King Shuhuan to make you a marquis, so that you can spend your life in peace!" Qi Jie looked at Gao Zang and said.

Gao Zang shook his head: "You King Huan is a king, I am also a king, we have the dignity of a king, you don't understand!" ”

"Goguryeo is the inheritance left to me by my ancestors, and your King Huan wants to annex the inheritance of my ancestors, as a descendant, I must protect this inheritance!" Gao Zang looked at Qi Jie and said.

"As far as I know, there are only 20,000 or 30,000 people in the entire Pyongyang City, can your Excellency think those 20,000 or 30,000 people can withstand the tiger and wolf army of my Qi country?" Qi Jie looked at Gao Zang and asked.

"For me, even if I can't stop it, I'm going to stop it! , Gao Zang looked at Qi Jie and said. ”
