"Your Majesty, the surface of the Yalu River is too wide, and our bows and arrows can't threaten each other at all, so the Goguryeo people on the opposite side can destroy our pontoon bridge with impunity, and the minister feels that we must find a way to stop the Goguryeo people's attack on the pontoon bridge!" Cheng Yanjin looked at the burned pontoon bridge on the river, and said with some heartache at the moment, the pontoon bridge built several times was burned, and many craftsmen were killed and injured, which made him, the main general, also angry and wanted to kill.

"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that it is not a way to go on like this, after all, the river is so wide, only if there is no enemy, we can also build a pontoon bridge to cross, but in this situation, the minister feels that he can only transfer boats, if there are enough boats, then directly cross the river by boat, if there are not enough boats, then let the archers get on the boat, suppress the opponent's troops, so that the pontoon bridge can be built smoothly!" I saw that Li Ji also opened his mouth to propose at this time.

"It's a good idea to cross the river by boat, but if you send someone to mobilize the boat now, I'm afraid it will take at least a month to come and go, and now it's July, and the weather here will become cold in September, and I'm afraid there won't be much time left for us at that time." Li Daozong also said at this time, although there is no shortage of ships in the Tang Dynasty, but after all, it is deep into the hinterland of Goguryeo, and it is too difficult to mobilize ships from the Tang Dynasty.

"Qiu Xiaozhong, who escorted Su Dingfang, has a boat there, but I don't know if he has gone back now, and now that they are at sea, it is also a big problem to inform them." Li Xiu also frowned at this time and said, now it is not like the future generations, the means of communication are too backward, and the things that can be solved with a phone call in the future generations have become an impossible task in Datang.

"Then send someone to Dengzhou to inform the navy to prepare the ship, even if you wait for another month, you must knock down the mouth of the ditch!" Li Shimin was also holding back his breath at this time, obviously his side had an advantage in troops, but because of the terrain, he couldn't get by, let alone fight the enemy, which made him very angry.

Hearing Li Shimin say this, Cheng Yanjin also immediately received the order, and then asked people to order the craftsmen to go back to the camp to rest, after all, no matter how hard they try to build a pontoon bridge, it is better to go back to rest, and at the same time send people to notify the people in the rear, let them organize ships to Bogoukou, speaking of which, Bogoukou is originally the lower reaches of the Yalu River, very close to the sea, so the fleet can directly rush here from the sea, of course, with the depth of the Yalu River, too large sea ships may not be able to enter.

Originally, Li Xiu and the others thought that they would have to wait for a month before the rear would organize a fleet to arrive, but what they didn't expect was that just a few days after they sent out the people sent to the rear to convey the order, they suddenly saw a huge fleet appear in the lower reaches of the Yalu River, which made the people in the Tang army camp very surprised, and even Li Shimin thought it was Goguryeo's reinforcements, because looking at the style of the other party's ships, it was definitely not the navy of the Tang Dynasty.

But what people didn't expect was that the fleet stopped on the bank of the river near the Tang military camp, and then someone immediately came ashore to the Tang army camp to ask for a meeting, and then the people in the military camp found out through the flag on the ship that it was the Silla people who came here.

When Li Shimin learned that it was the fleet of the Silla people, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression at the moment, and then let the person who asked to see him come in, and then saw a tall and gentle-looking middle-aged man walk in, and when he saw Li Xiu, he immediately made a big salute and said: "Silla ruling B pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!" ”

"No need to be polite, is your queen okay?" Li Shimin also smiled at this time and said, Silla is now the queen in power, named Jindeman, and this is also the first queen of Silla, this queen is not simple, she actively contacted the Tang Dynasty after ascending the throne, and finally hugged Li Shimin's thigh, which saved her from the crisis of being destroyed by Goguryeo and Baekje.

"Thank you for Your Majesty's concern, our queen is well, and this time I heard that the Tang Dynasty sent heavenly soldiers to attack Goguryeo, although our Silla country is small and the people are weak, but we also want to contribute to Your Majesty, so the queen has ordered a large army to attack Pyongyang from the east, and I heard that Your Majesty has arrived at the Yalu River, and the queen is worried that Her Majesty will not be able to cross the river, so she sent her subordinates to lead a fleet to support Your Majesty!" I saw this second priest replied respectfully again.

However, Li Xiu, who was standing next to Li Shimin, secretly pouted, although this B sacrifice seemed to be humble, and put Silla in a very low position in and out of his words, but Li Xiu knew that this was the way Silla and the Tang Dynasty got along, and they were now doing their best to show weakness to the Tang Dynasty, in order not to let the Tang Dynasty pay attention to them, and when the Tang Dynasty destroyed Goguryeo, if they could not garrison it here for a long time in the future, then they could encroach on the original Goguryeo territory little by little.

"Yes, yes, your queen has a heart, I have indeed encountered problems crossing the river here, and your fleet is really timely!" Li Shimin seemed to be very useful to the words of the second sacrifice, and he couldn't help but smile at the moment, and the expression on his face was also very kind.

"As long as Your Majesty is in need, we Silla are willing to go to the soup for Your Majesty, this time the ministers brought 300 large ships and 1,000 small boats, and now they are all docked on the bank of the river, as long as Your Majesty has an order, they will be at Your Majesty's disposal!" Yi Sai once again expressed his loyalty, but his Chinese was very slippery, and he could even use idioms.

"Three hundred ships? So much? Li Shimin couldn't help but show a surprised expression when he heard Yi Sai's words, after all, even if it was the navy of the Tang Dynasty, there were only two or three hundred ships that could be called big ships, and it was really surprising that a small country in Silla could dispatch so many big ships.

"This ......" But Yi Sai suddenly showed an embarrassed look at this time, and after a while, he explained with a dry smile, "Your Majesty, our Silla country is small and weak, and we can't build a big ship like the Tang Dynasty, and the big ship we are talking about is actually far from being compared with the big ship of the Tang Dynasty, I have seen the big ship that the Tang army rode before, and one can almost top four or five of our big ships." ”

"Hahahaha~" As soon as the words of the second sacrifice came out, it immediately caused a burst of laughter from the other ministers in the tent, and even Li Shimin couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, but he quickly suppressed his smile, after all, people are kind enough to help him, and he really shouldn't make fun of the other party, so he deliberately said again with a straight face, "It is already very rare for you monarchs and ministers to have this kind of thought, and if you conquer Pyongyang City in the future, I will definitely reward your monarchs and ministers at that time!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" When he heard Li Shimin's words, he immediately made a big bow again, and he also liked the expression of joy on his face, and seemed to care very much about Li Shimin's reward. But Li Xiu next to him frowned slightly, because he always felt that something was wrong with this B sacrifice.
