Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3003 each with their own minds

In the whole world, no army can defeat the Tang army in a field battle.

At that time, there were hundreds of thousands of Western Turkic soldiers, but they were all wiped out by the Tang army led by Li Jing and Li Ji. Developing in the West, even in the Western Regions, guerrilla tactics were used to harass the Tang army, and they did not dare to fight head-on.

Xue Yantuo, who claims to have inherited the pastures and bravery of the Western Turks, once ruled Mobei for a while, and Goguryeo tried to join forces with him to curb the infiltration and expansion of the Tang Dynasty to Liaodong and Mobei. It turned out that Fang Jun did not obey the order just because of a chance , Privately sent troops out of Baidao and went straight into Mobei. With only one guard, they swept across Mobei and completely wiped out Xue Yantuo.

No matter how arrogant and conceited Yuan Gai Su Wen was, he dared not compare himself to the Western Turks and Xue Yantuo in their heyday. Without a mountain city as a support, it would be extremely stupid to engage in a field battle with the Tang army, tantamount to digging one's own grave.

However, under the addition of gunpowder, the solid mountain city fell apart in an instant like tofu in front of the Tang army. Except for field battles, Goguryeo seemed to have no choice...

……

Changsun Huan nodded and said: "This thing was developed by Fang Jun. It looks like an inconspicuous and dark thing, but it contains the energy to destroy the world. Fang Jun developed muskets, cannons, and thunders with this, relying on it to run rampant Sifang has greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the Tang army. No matter how strong the mountain fortress is, it is vulnerable to a sufficient amount of gunpowder."

When I said this, I was proud and depressed at the same time.

He has always regarded himself as a Han, even though his ancestors were actually Xianbei nobles, and he did not have much Han blood, and even now he is like a bereaved dog who cannot return home.

However, the culture of the Han family has already taken root in his heart. He grew up reading the Four Books and Five Classics, writing Chinese characters and speaking Chinese. Why did he ever regard himself as a Xianbei person?It is natural and honorable to see the berserk Yuan Gai Suwen helpless in front of the mighty Tang army.

However, gunpowder was developed by Fang Jun, and Fang Jun's ability was shown more and more invisibly, which made him pale in comparison. He was both unhappy and inferior...

The mood is very complicated.

Yuan Gai Suwen hoped: "Can I get the formula of gunpowder? If there is even a chance, I am willing to pay any price! If you can provide the formula of gunpowder to Goguryeo so that Goguryeo can also have this kind of artifact, I would like to ask Treasure King Those who recommend the young master as Pei will never break their promise!"

From top to bottom, the official positions in Goguryeo can be divided into Jiajia, Duilu, Peizhe, Youzou Dajia, Zhuzhu, Youtai, Envoy, Silk Clothes Ancestor and so on.

The first-class "summation" is equivalent to the "Prime Minister" and "Prime Minister" of the Central Plains. One person is below ten thousand and has unparalleled power, but it is usually vacant.The second-class "Duilu" is in charge of the national military and political power and is directly responsible to the King of Goguryeo.The third class is Pei Zhe, which is equivalent to the "Six Books" and the like. They are high-ranking and powerful, and non-royal family members or those with outstanding merits cannot be held.

Whether it is "addition" or "to Lu", it just represents the rank of the official position, not the specific name of the official position. His father, Yuan Taizuo, was once Goguryeo's "big opponent" and held the military and political power of Goguryeo.

As for Yuan Gai Suwen's official position of "Da Mo Li Zhi", it was completely created by him. He replaced the official position of "Da Dui Lu" with it. The peak of power ministers is equivalent to half of the "King of Goguryeo", and already possesses the symbol of usurping the throne...

"Pei Zhe" is a third-class official position in name, but it is actually a second-class position. This is already an absolute high-ranking official in the Goguryeo system, and it cannot be easily granted even to ordinary dignitaries.Yuan Gai Suwen was able to make such a condition, which could be regarded as full of sincerity.

However, Changsun Huan sighed softly, and said with a wry smile: "Da Mo Lizhi is thinking too much. The gunpowder was developed by Fang Jun. The formula is naturally in his hands, and even the prince of the court can't know it. The workshop that produces gunpowder It is even under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and it is controlled by its confidant Eagle Dog, so it is absolutely impossible for outsiders to know about it."

Yuan Gai Suwen regretted: "Ah, so that's the case! If we can get the formula of gunpowder, our army will be even more powerful, and we won't be afraid of the Tang army's group charge. It's a pity, a pity!"

Yuan Nanjian snorted coldly at the side, and said: "I don't think it's impossible to get it, but I don't want to get it, right? The power of the Changsun family can be said to be overwhelming in Chang'an City. If you really want to, how can you not get a mere formula? Although the grandson is in Goguryeo, his heart has always been towards the Tang Dynasty, he is really a loyal minister and general of the Tang emperor, and he admires him."

He has always looked down on Changsun Huan.

This person is like a bereaved dog in the Tang Dynasty, he doesn't have a place for me, he ran to Goguryeo to avoid disaster, but he didn't know how to be low-key and humble.Both his father and elder brother valued him very much. Perhaps his father hoped to use the power of the eldest grandson's family to find out the movements of the top officials in Datang, but the elder brother obeyed his words, which made Yuan Nanjian more and more dissatisfied.

Especially this person keeps giving advice to the eldest brother in private, seeing that the position of the elder brother's son is getting more and more stable, how can Yuan Nanjian not regard him as an enemy?

Before Changsun Huan could refute, Yuan Gai Suwen had already waved his hands and shouted: "What are you talking about? Young Master Changsun is a gentleman in the world, how could he use lies to make him his father?"

Then he said with emotion: "Now the Tang army is coming so fiercely that even the emperor of Tang Dynasty is personally marching. The defense lines in the north are in danger. I don't know how long they can last."

Since the Sui Dynasty, every time the Central Plains Dynasty went east, the contrast in strength was extremely different. Goguryeo had never had the extravagant hope of being able to defeat a powerful enemy head-on. It just pinned its hopes on the right time and place, and used the unique region and climate of Liaodong to block the enemy. marching pace, and finally dragged to the victory of the war.

If you can't hold on, then there is only one way to perish...

To put it bluntly, although Goguryeo has a vast territory, most of it is in a bitterly cold place with harsh natural conditions, making it difficult to feed a larger population.It's nothing more than being king and hegemony in the Far East. Once you confront the Central Plains Dynasty, you can only resist and have no power to fight back.

Therefore, every Goguryeo king wanted to expand the border eastward, but he was afraid of the strength of the Central Plains dynasty, so he only dared to take advantage of the turmoil in the Central Plains to nibble away bit by bit.

Even so, it was enough to arouse the vigilance of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Therefore, since Goguryeo's national power has risen to a higher level, it was immediately regarded as a serious problem by the Central Plains Dynasty.It is nonsense to "conquer the land that has never been conquered, and make contributions." The main purpose is to kill and germinate the vast country of Koguryo.

The vast land of the Far East has never been calm. Fuyu, Mohe, Khitan, Shiwei, Xi... Countless brave and warlike ethnic groups thrived on this land, each of which is powerful. As long as Goguryeo is slightly weak, it will be like a wolf. The crowds generally rushed forward to divide and eat the regime established by Goguryeo, and completely annihilated it.

During the Great Tang's eastward expedition to Goguryeo, several tribes such as Khitan, Shiwei, Xi, etc. were attached to it, willing to charge for the Great Tang.

And once Goguryeo becomes strong, it will attract the attack of the Central Plains Dynasty.

This is the current situation of Goguryeo, very helpless...

Yuan Nanjian was a little frustrated when he heard his father's words. Is this still the violent and unruly father in the past who didn't take the heroes of the world seriously?
Quickly persuaded: "Father must not lose his fighting spirit! The three conquests of Goguryeo in the former Sui Dynasty, which one is not nearly successful, but finally returned? Goguryeo is favored by the heavens, and the country must be endless and the territory will not be lost! Father himself Lead hundreds of thousands of troops to expel foreign aggressors, and make an indomitable feat!"

He is most afraid that Goguryeo will be destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, and he will not be able to surrender!
It has not been a day or two since the eldest brother Yuan boy and the thief Changsun Huan whispered in private. All fools know that once Goguryeo is destroyed, they will definitely get the support of Datang under the bridge of Changsun Huan.The Great Tang occupied Goguryeo, so naturally they still had to rely on the Goguryeo people to govern. What if they simply support the elder brother to inherit all the properties of the Yuan clan and become the new King of Goguryeo?
With the elder brother's jealousy and dislike towards him, if he is not complete, he will use his own brother to take the knife and swear allegiance to Datang...
