Wei Yuancheng didn't know what to do with the list in his hand, but soon, he thought of what Li Xin had just said, and suddenly had a wit, as if he wanted to confirm it.

"Your Majesty is going to hand over this list to the princes to decide?" Wei Yuancheng looked at Li Xin with both eyes and didn't blink.

"Yes, send someone to Chang'an, let a few princes also take a look, King Han and King Chen are about to become adults, and it is time to participate in political affairs." Li Xin nodded, as if he was just talking casually, but Wei Yuancheng didn't dare to say these words as a joke.

"Yes, the minister will immediately send the list to Chang'an." Wei Yuancheng touched his forehead and said. Li Xin asked the princes to participate in this matter at this time, ostensibly to give the princes a chance to experience, but Wei Yuancheng always felt that there were other mysteries behind this matter.

"Are those Khitan soldiers still honest?" Li Xin suddenly asked, he remembered that after the Tang Dynasty, it was the Khitan tribe that became the largest force on the grassland, and finally threatened the Central Plains for hundreds of years. Although he didn't know when the Khitans rose, Li Xin always felt that he should not give up control of the grassland peoples.

"General Su leads the army well, not only the Khitan soldiers, but also the soldiers of other races are very brave and good at fighting, they live on horseback all the year round, natural cavalry, in the field, kill Gai Suwen dare not come out." Wei Yuancheng suddenly showed a smile on his face, and said: "Now Gai Suwen can only hide in the new city, and he doesn't dare to come out to meet the enemy. General Qin Qiong is now on the front line, mainly to sweep away the surrounding thieves to ensure the smooth flow of the grain route. Now that it has been carried out more or less, the surrounding Goguryeo armies have been almost wiped out. ”

"In the end, the Goguryeo people are weak, and they are not our opponents at all." Li Xin also smiled: "Although whether it is a new city or Liaodong City. It's hard to take it in eagerness, but we can cut its wings first. Only when their wings are broken, can we cut off their food and grass, their support. Yang Wanchun of Xincheng is a powerful person, good at holding on to the city and forcibly attacking. We're going to lose a lot of horses. ”

"What the emperor said is that before the minister came, General Qin had launched an attack on Xincheng, lost hundreds of people, and was repelled by Yang Wanchun." Wei Yuancheng said in a low voice.

"So powerful? Is the conscience cannon used? Li Xin frowned and said, "Is the news solid really so strong?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty's words, the conscienceless cannon is used, but it is only a great threat to the soldiers, but it is not good for the city wall, and the city wall of the new city is very thick. I heard that Yang Wanchun used a lot of people to build the new city into an extremely strong and solid city. I even heard that the people who used it to build the new city were our captured soldiers. There were countless casualties, the same road I built in Bashu back then. Wei Yuancheng's voice became lower and lower, because he felt that the breath in the carriage was getting more and more solemn, and the solemnity made him breathless.

"Damn." Li Xin snorted coldly and said, "Are there still our soldiers in Xincheng City?" ”

"Even if there is, I'm afraid it won't be able to form much combat power. After a few years, I am afraid that they are all old, weak, sick and disabled. Wei Yuancheng even sighed a little between his words. Although they are from a family, although these families do not take these soldiers to heart. But I couldn't help but feel a little unbearable in my heart. What's more, many of those soldiers were from Kanto families. The nostalgia of the countryside is still very popular in this era.

"It's a pity, otherwise, we can send someone to contact them first, and we can save them. It's a pity. Nobunaga sighed.

"Yang Wanchun once tied those brothers to the city wall at a critical time, and General Qin Qiong didn't dare to attack." Wei Yuancheng said another important piece of information, saying: "Yang Wanchun is fierce and cunning, and he is Gai Suwen's right-hand man. I heard that Yang Wanchun is preparing his daughter to marry Gai Suwen as a concubine. General Qin Qiong wanted to persuade this person to surrender, but after hearing the news, he could only give up. ”

"Yang Wanchun." Li Xin knocked on the window of the car and said, "Speed up and go to the new city immediately." "Qin Qiong can't do it, when it is critical, he can only play by himself.

"Is Gai Suwen in Xincheng now, or in Liaodong?" Li Xin's face was gloomy and he asked again.

"Gai Suwen's Daxu is in Xincheng, but the ministers guessed that Gai Suwen's soldiers and horses had already gone to Liaodong City." Wei Yuancheng said the speculation of the generals on the front line, and said in a low voice: "General Pei's soldiers and horses are very tense, the Goguryeo army is retreating one after another, and many people in Goguryeo are already opposing the war with the Tang Dynasty, and even King Rongliu is also opposing this matter, and he is very disgusted with Gai Suwen's flying and domineering in the court. A fire broke out in Gai Suwen's backyard, and as a last resort, Gai Suwen could only go back to appease the backyard first. ”

"No, he's definitely not there to appease his own backyard, but to better deal with us. Although King Rongliu is powerful, it doesn't have much impact on Gai Suwen, he is using the new city to consume our strength, and he is fighting a protracted war. Li Xin thought for a while and said: "At this time to fight, the weather is the most important factor, at this time the autumn is high and cool, it is the best time to fight, if it is later, I am afraid it will not be appropriate, the cold weather is a great impact on the morale of the army, Gai Suwen just wants to use such an opportunity to deal with us." ”

"Rongliu Wang, some of their Goguryeo nobles will actually agree with Gai Suwen's decision, if they resolutely resist, our Tang Dynasty will finally retreat, I am afraid that it will be Gai Suwen who will be fulfilled in the end, Gai Suwen's father and son have continuously resisted the attacks of the former Sui and the Tang Dynasty, and the Yuan family will definitely become the first family of Goguryeo, and they will not agree to Rongliu Wang." Wei Yuancheng shook his head and said.

"What is the emperor, a strong soldier! Just wait! Li Xin shook his head disdainfully, Gai Suwen himself is a person who does not like to compromise, how can he be willing to retreat, the Tang army is approaching, Goguryeo wants to protect himself, and the only way to send Gai Suwen's head is to send it to himself. How would Gay Suwen be willing? Now I just don't know when Gai Suwen killed King Rongliu.

"Sure enough." Wei Yuancheng couldn't help but speak.

"No matter what, try your best to capture the new city first, and then settle accounts with Gai Suwen. Isn't Gai Suwen's sister in Chang'an City now? When I arrested his fiancée and sent him to Chang'an City to be with his sister, it was a very pleasant thing for my sister-in-law to serve me together. Li Xin said triumphantly.
