Chapter 376 376.King of Goguryeo

"Zhao Yong will make a move on us, but he will only attack us after he has solved the Wei State!" Guan Zhong said to Qi Xiaobai on the side.

Qi Xiaobai can understand Guan Zhong's words, because three-tenths of Zhao's army is on the northern Xiongnu border, five-tenths of the army is on the Wei border, and two-tenths of the army is in Qi.

Qi Xiaobai can see from here that what Zhao Yong wants to deal with is the Wei State, of course, there are also Zhao Yong's worries, he knows that the Wei State has the heart to swallow the Three Jins.

If this Wei State wants to swallow the Three Jins, it will definitely take him Zhao State first, defeat the Zhao State, and Korea will no longer be a problem, and the Wei State will complete his wish, unify the Three Jins, sit on the Central Plains, unify the world, and replace the Zhou.

As for Zhao Yong, when he makes a move, he must first solve the hidden danger of Wei State, at least let Wei State not attack other countries after invading his Zhao State power.

Zhao Yong defended the Wei State, and the Wei State also defended the Zhao State, and the King of Wei Hui was worried that Zhao Yong would retaliate against him Wei State, so he stationed a large army on the border with Zhao State.

It can be said that the two armies can be regarded as two armies facing each other, and as long as there is an order, a major war can break out within three days.

"The current situation in the world depends on whether the Qin State will strike at the Zhao State first, or the Zhao State will make the first move against the Wei State!" Guan Zhong Qi Xiaobai explained.

After this war, the Wei State will not be at war in a short time, they will definitely need to rest, of course, the Zhao State will also rest, and only the Qin State is in a hurry to start a war.

Qi Xiaobai thought about it, now looking at the situation in the world, the one who wants to fight the most is the Qin State, and now the Qin State is looking at whether the Qin State will fight the Wei State or the Zhao State first.

If it is to fight the Wei State, it will not be beneficial to the Qi State, but the Zhao State of Qi Xiaobaijue will also be involved.

After all, Qin fought Wei, this was an opportunity for Zhao to fight his rival, and Zhao would not give up in vain.

And after this cabinet meeting, Qi Xiaobai also figured out what Qi should do, that is, to observe the situation conservatively and not take the initiative.

In the current situation of the empire, countries are competing for hegemony and want to annex each other, and the country is just a little bit, for Qi State, Qi State has not yet reached the time to take the initiative.

Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone: "Then you will rest your soldiers and horses, Zhang Tianshang, you go to expand the war preparations, we must always be ready to enter the war!" ”

Zhang Tianshang, who had been silent, said: "Minister, the order!" ”

Qi Xiaobai nodded: "There is still a moment, you have to report to me about the situation in Goguryeo!" ”

The city of Pyongyang, Goguryeo.

The king of Goguryeo, 'Gozang', panicked, he didn't expect that the huge Goguryeo would be in such a short period of time, and there would be a climate of destruction.

A Goguryeo courtier looked at Gozang: "Your Majesty, run, it won't be long before the imperial army will arrive in Pyongyang City!" ”

Gao Zang looked at this courtier: "Pull it out and cut it for me!" ”

This courtier was stunned, he didn't expect that his persuasion would attract Gao Zang's anger, Gao Zang is a monarch, a king, he has the self-esteem of a king, how could he hear that a large army is coming to him, he doesn't even fight and run? What is this system?

In the future, when it is handed down to future generations, what will the world think of him?

Therefore, Gozang was very angry at the courtier's persuasion, and of course he also knew that the current Pyongyang City would be difficult to resist the imperial army, and when the imperial army approached Pyongyang City, it might be the time when Goguryeo fell.

Gao Zang sat on the throne: "I die and the country will be destroyed, I am here, and the country will not fall!" ”

Goguryeo's courtiers all knelt in front of Gozang, who was also a male lord, and after he succeeded to the throne, Goguryeo was greatly improved, and he wanted to annex Baekje and Silla.

It's just that he didn't expect things to happen so suddenly, and when he was on an expedition against the Xiongnu, the rear was suddenly attacked by Baekje and Silla.

What I didn't expect was that the imperial army would come out of Shanhaiguan and attack directly......

Although the territory of Goguryeo is relatively large, the population is very small, otherwise it would not have been able to fight again.

Like the princes of the empire, after losing the first war, they will not immediately lose the country, and they can continue to fight, which is the reason for the huge population of the imperial princes.

After this defeat, Goguryeo was sparsely populated, and it was difficult to organize a team to resist.

Gao Zang looked at the other courtier: "Has Jin Muren's side solved it?" ”

The courtiers who were asked, they didn't dare to speak, after Gao Zang saw this scene, he suddenly had some bad premonitions, seeing that the courtiers didn't answer immediately, he roared angrily: "Say it quickly!" ”

"General Jin Muren, after he heard that General Li Gaozhao was defeated and killed, he surrendered directly to the enemy army!" After the courtier finished speaking to Gao Zang, Gao Zang suddenly panicked, he didn't expect Jin Muren to surrender.

Jin Muren originally confronted Zhou Baotong, but when he heard that Li Gaozhao was defeated and killed, and the imperial army was about to approach Pyongyang City, he knew that Goguryeo was dead, and in order to get a better future, Jin Muren submitted a letter of surrender to Zhou Baotong.

This is mainly used by Zhou Baotong to persuade him to surrender, and when Qi Jiao was victorious, Zhou Baotong sent an envoy to the camp of Jin Muren to persuade him.

When he learned that Zhou Baotong was also the army of the empire, Jin Muren suddenly had no intention of fighting, after all, Li Gaozhao's main army had been destroyed, and the opponent's army was about to come to Pyongyang City.

As soon as the city of Pyongyang was broken, the other party continued to advance and encircle Zhou Baotong, and he was powerless to fight at all, and there was only a dead end.

Jin Muren thought about it left and right, and surrendered decisively, because the war will be lost, there is only one way to surrender, and now surrender can survive, and more importantly, he can find a good position.

Jin Muren surrendered directly to Zhou Baotong.

"After General Jin Muren surrendered to the enemy, he immediately turned around and attacked Seoul, and the Seoul defenders did not know that Jin Muren had surrendered, and Seoul was broken in one day!" The courtier said to Takazo.

The fortifications of Seoul are still good, without the help of Jin Muren, it is impossible for Zhou Baotong to take Seoul in one day, and it will take at least a little time to attack Seoul.

After hearing the words of the courtier, Gao Zang scolded: "Bastard, what a bastard, I owe him a lot of respect and trust!" ”

The courtier lowered his head and immediately knelt down: "The great prince is guilty!" ”

Gaozang originally wanted Jin Muren to come to his aid, he knew that the southern army, if they wanted to attack Pyongyang City, they needed to break through Seoul, and the fortifications of Seoul were good, and it would take a while to break through Seoul.

After Jin Muren returned to Pyongyang City, he could still fight Qi Jiao, but Jin Muren surrendered, and there were less than 30,000 armored soldiers in the entire Pyongyang City, more than 20,000.

Moreover, the city of Pyongyang does not have very strong fortifications, so it is difficult to hold the large army of Qi Jiao.

"What about the envoys to Donghu and Bohai?" Takazo looked at everyone and asked again.

When he learned that the imperial army had defeated Li Gaozhao, he sent envoys to Donghu and Bohai, hoping to get support from these two countries.
