Chapter 350: Surrender?
Gao Zang walked outside with people, and the guards in the palace did not dare to stop him, and when he walked to the door, the Izumi boy and his brothers came out.
"The ministers have seen the king." The brothers saluted in unison to Gaozang.
"The three Aiqing don't have to be polite, they are alone in the palace today, I heard that Quan Nanjian brought the soldiers into the palace, and I came to take a look, but what happened?" Takazo asked.
"It's nothing, it's rude, the minister is the father, and the father always doesn't see the minister these days, the minister is worried about his father's body, so he did such a thing in a hurry, and I hope the king will forgive the sin." Izumi Nanjian bowed down and said.
"I see, Da Mo is okay with his body? It's been more than a month, and even Gu has never seen Da Mo Lizhi, and today he is here, and Gu also plans to visit Da Mo Lizhi, after all, Da Mo Lizhi is also working for state affairs, so he is tired and sick. Gao Zang said with a smile, and then he was about to walk to the hall.
"Your Majesty." Seeing that Gao Zang was going to the hall, the spring boy hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Bold!" For such a faux pas, the eunuch beside Gao Zang jumped out and shouted loudly in an instant, which really startled the spring boy.
"What? Could it be that Lone still can't enter this temple? Takazo asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No, it's not." The spring boy waved his hand again and again: "It's just that my father just fell asleep......"
"Do you think going in alone will disturb Da Mo Lizhi?" Takazo said unhappily.
"That's not what the minister meant."
"Now, big brother, there's nothing to stop." Quan Nanjian said: "The king, please." ”
Gao Zang glanced at Quan Nanjian and then at Quan Nanjian, snorted coldly, and walked into the palace with the eunuch.
"Your Majesty, for the sake of the stability of the court, the ministers concealed the news that my father was seriously ill, in fact, as early as a month and a half ago, my father was seriously ill, and he was already unconscious, and now he is just hanging a breath, maybe one day he will ......." Quan Nanjian said: "A month and a half ago, if the news of my father's unconscious came out, the entire government and the opposition would be in turmoil, and the Tang army was tense outside, and the soldiers were directed at Pyongyang City, if we were in turmoil in the country, it would give the Tang Dynasty a chance......."
"Well......." Gao Zang nodded: "That's right, but now that the situation is like this, there is no point in concealing the news of Da Mo Lizhi, so let's hurry up and send the doctor to Da Mo Lizhi for diagnosis and treatment." ”
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Quangai Suwen is no longer good, even if Hua Tuo is alive, he can't save Quangai Suwen's generals, and the current Quangai Suwen, except for the faint breath between the nostrils, the rest is no different from a dead person.
"Early tomorrow morning, in the main hall, summon the courtiers and announce the news, now that the war situation has eroded like this, it can't be delayed any longer, and there must be a way." Takazo said.
"Yes." The brothers could only answer and put it on them, and they didn't know what to do next.
Quangai Suwen can no longer dominate the court, and Gaozang finally has the appearance of a king.
In the early morning of the next day, in the main hall of the royal palace in Pyongyang, Gozang sat on the throne, and the seat of the common spring Gai Suwen was still empty, and the person who had been majestic in the court was now lying on the bed, not far from death.
"Summoning you today, there is news, Gu has to tell you that today's court meeting is also related to the life and death of Goguryeo, and Gu wants to hear your views." Takazo said.
It is rare that it is not Quangai Suwen who speaks to the court.
"Your Majesty, please speak."
Gao Zang's words also made the people below have a bad feeling in their hearts, this spring Gai Suwen, isn't there something wrong.
"The Tang Dynasty attacked Goguryeo, Da Mo left the branch to work on state affairs, was seriously ill and died, and now he is in a coma in the side hall, unconscious, Liu Boying, the general of the Tang Dynasty Naval Division, led 50,000 naval divisions from the south, went north to Liaodong, and is now stationed in Changkou City, and now the situation, what should I do in Goguryeo, and please speak freely." Takazo said.
In terms of sailors, Goguryeo and Baekje were fighting Silla at sea, and the army on the ground in Baekje was spreading joy in Silla territory, completely ignoring the fact that Su Dingfang was wreaking havoc in the south in Goguryeo, and Goguryeo did not dare to let Baekje enter Goguryeo's territory.
And the local army of Goguryeo, against the elite of the Tang Dynasty, was beaten without the power to fight back, and the northern Daxing City was encroaching on Pyongyang City step by step, and in another half a month, Xue Rengui and Xuan Shijing led their troops to Pyongyang City, how to deal with it?
"This ......."
The ministers in the main hall looked at each other, and they also knew that the battle situation was unfavorable to Goguryeo, but they always felt that there was a Quan Gai Suwen in front of them, even if they were defeated, they would not be unlucky, but now Quan Gai Suwen is unconscious, now it's okay, the sky is falling, the tall man is lying down, how should this be good?
Before, these people had resentment in their hearts about Quangai Suwen's arrogance and domineering, but when it really came to a critical juncture, they pinned all their hopes on Quangai Suwen, Quangai Suwen fell, and there was no backbone, this time they were really panicked, and they resented Quangai Suwen even more in their hearts, why did they fall at this time.......
"Your Majesty, now the northern land is occupied by the Tang army, and there are peerless generals such as Su Dingfang in the south, originally Su Dingfang led the troops, the principle of the local, fighting in Goguryeo, logistics supply difficulties, as long as the supply of Su Dingfang is cut off, it can also break Su Dingfang, but now Liu Boying, the general of the Tang Army's water division, led 50,000 water divisions to be stationed in Changkou, Su Dingfang has no worries, forgive the ministers for daring to say, king, if you send envoys to Tang as soon as possible to submit the surrender table, Goguryeo can still keep a good land, if it drags on further, The minister did not dare to say what the future of Goguryeo would be. ”
"What does the Qing family mean by surrendering to Tang?" Takazo asked.
"Exactly."
Hearing his response, Gao Zang fell into deep thought, it was obvious that although surrender was a shame, it could at least keep a piece of the country, keep this land from changing hands, and keep the throne of the Gao family.
"What about the others? Do you all agree? Takazo's gaze scanned the crowd.
And all the people in the temple exchanged their heads and began to discuss.
The three brothers of the Quan family also stood together, discussing whether this was feasible, but after discussing and discussing, they found that there were no generals in Goguryeo who could be sent out to fight against the Tang army.
Therefore, it seems inevitable to send envoys to ask for peace, and it is a big deal to spend some money and goods to send them to Chang'an and send them to the Tang Emperor to buy peace, which is much better than losing your life.
"The ministers seconded the proposal." After discussion, it was rare that the opinions in the court reached an agreement.
