The first thousand and twenty chapters have a choice
April 27, Pyongyang.
The king Gao Yuan, Prime Minister Gao Jianwu, and the general Yizhi Wende, the emperor and his ministers looked at the urgent report on the desk, their faces were gloomy and they looked at each other speechlessly.
The thing that was most worried about happened. When the disaster was approaching, the Marines were betrayed and turned against each other, which caused the situation to deteriorate suddenly. Goguryeo immediately fell into Middle-earth. The situation was in danger. The disaster of the country was about to fall.
This news was sent from the domestic city by 100,000. It was a secret spy deployed by Prime Minister Gao Jianwu in secret. After the city fell, he risked the danger of death. Therefore, Gao Jianwu believed it without doubt. Gao Jianwu used the head to guarantee the news was reliable, and Gao Yuan and Yizhi Wende would certainly not doubt it. Therefore, the first priority of the monarch and ministers in the face of the sinister dilemma is to seek countermeasures.
"Now our enemies have increased to three. If internal rebellion is included, it will be four enemies, attacking inside and outside, and Pyongyang is in danger." Gao Jianwu took the lead in breaking the silence, his tone was heavy, and his haggard face was full of helplessness and anger. "The Middle-earth people just killed the envoys we sent here, cut off the road to negotiations and peace. The Marine people betrayed us, turned against us, and crossed the Yalu Water, and killed Pyongyang. The purpose is very clear. The more we want to step on the blood and bones of my Goguryeo and flatter us to its new owner."
Although there is no evidence that the Marines have fallen to Middle-earth, since the Second Attack of Goguryeo last year, the former leader of the Marines and the prefect of the Western Liao Dynasty suddenly became more and more powerful, and sent more confidants to the Sumoshui River to lobby the Marines and tribes. Fortunately, the Second Attack of Middle-earth was overwhelmed by the domestic rebellion, which made the situation on the Marines not worse. However, this year, the Third Attack of Middle-earth attacks of Goguryeo for the Marines was put on a stubborn situation.
However, Goguryeo was dragged down by war year after year. The situation was obviously unfavorable to Goguryeo. In this case, even Pyongyang itself did not believe that the Marines would still keep the alliance. Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine how the Marines chose in the dilemma. Of course, those who know the times are the heroes, and good birds choose trees to live in. They rush to the Middle Earth within the scope of the situation and hug the new master's thighs, charge for the new master, and take the heads of the old brothers to receive rewards.
The Sashui War last year, and Zhongtu was defeated, Goguryeo won an unprecedented victory. The Marines made an indelible contribution. Because of this, the Marines formed a mortal enemy with Zhongtu. Even though Zhongtu promised to be refusal, how could the Marines believe that the Marines would not settle the accounts in the autumn harvest? So last year, Goguryeo was not in a desperate situation. The Marines were always swaying in the face of Zhongtu’s pleading, but this year is different. This year, Goguryeo is at the end of its journey. If the Marines continue to follow Gao.
Juli walked all the way to the darkness, and the result was conceivable. What should I do if I just defect to Zhongtu and there was no security guarantee? Only by accepting the letter of surrender, the tribes of the Martial Arts can only impress Zhongtu by launching a large army to attack Pyongyang, paying a bloody price, and taking out rich and tangible benefits, so that Zhongtu can believe in the surrender of the Martial Arts people, and believe that keeping the Martial Arts people still has a useful effect. Only in this way can China make it possible to give up revenge or even kill the Martial Arts people.
Therefore, from the standpoint of the Marines to deduce the situation, it is certain that the Marines' goal will not be just a domestic city, nor will it stop at the east bank of Yalu Water and the northern foot of the Jiangnan Mountains. Instead, it aims at Pyongyang and kills the city of Pyongyang, quickly deteriorates the situation in Goguryeo, forces Goguryeo to a dead end, and then supports and helps the Central Turkish army to attack Pyongyang. Only in this way, the Central Turkish people are qualified to kneel down at the feet of Middle Earth, holds Middle Earth's thighs and calls their master, begging for forgiveness and acceptance of Middle Earth.
Gao Yuan and Yizhi Wende had no doubt about Gao Jianwu's pessimistic inference, both believed that the Marines were burning, killing and looting on the east bank of Yalu River, galloping on horseback, and soon they would face the Dading River and the Sashui line and directly threaten Pyongyang.
Gao Yuan was very angry, gritted his teeth and shouted loudly, "Shameless rebellion, kill without mercy. As long as it dares to come, we will kill it without leaving any armor."
Gao Jianwu frowned slightly and warned, "King, Pyongyang is now under attack from three sides. If the three sides fight, the situation will inevitably be out of control."
Gao Yuanqi was extremely energetic and shouted at Gao Jianwu, "You had suggested that you ask the people of the Marines to ask for help from the former land of Fuyu, but what was the result? The Marines were not fooled at all and did not dare to snatch the former land of Fuyu from Middle-earth. Instead, they turned against each other and turned around and attacked us. Now the Marines are coming, and tens of thousands of strings are coming roaring. What do you think? You still have to cede the land to negotiate peace? Now even if you give Pyongyang to the Marines, the Marines will not stop attacking, because the fact is obvious, we are attacked on three sides and are surrounded by enemies, and are in danger. How can the Marines be willing to help each other and live and die with me, Goguryeo?"
"King calm down." Gao Jianwuyi was not afraid and tried his best to persuade him. "In the current situation, of course we cannot compromise and give in to the Marx people. In fact, even if we compromise and give in, the Marx people will not pay attention to us. However, with our existing strength, the third-line battle will only accelerate the defeat. Therefore, we must make choices and focus. We can concentrate our efforts to fight the whole way first. As long as we defeat one way, we can quickly reverse the predicament and grab a glimmer of vitality from the desperate situation."
To repel all the way, this makes sense, but talking about war on paper is meaningless. Gao Yuan controlled his emotions, turned his eyes to the contemplative and silent Yizhi Wende, and asked, "Where will the plan come out?"
"The Prime Minister makes sense. At present, the only way for us to reverse the crisis is to concentrate our efforts to fight the whole way. As long as we defeat it, the situation will improve and the chance of perseverance will be great." Yizhi Wende stroked his long beard with his hand and said slowly, "King, although we have three enemies now, the only one that really poses a life-and-death threat to us is Middle-earth. The Maruhe string control string from the north and Silla and Baekje coalition from the southeast are mediocre. As long as we seize the opportunity, with our existing strength, we can give them a fatal blow."
"Among these three enemies, Middle Earth has the most determined intention to destroy me, and will never give up until I destroyed Goguryeo, so Middle Earth is the most difficult to deal with; the Martial Control String has no desire to destroy me, nor the power to destroy me. Their betrayal and the defeat of the enemy is just a helpless choice at the end of the way. In order to survive, it is necessary to deal with it, so the Martial People are the best to deal with it; Silla and Baekje coalition also have the intention to destroy me, but they have no power to destroy me, so they can only rely on Middle Earth, and can only spy on one side to rob, and can only restrain us and disperse part of our strength, but cannot give us substantial threats, so they are like gangrene with bones, which makes people feel annoyed."
Gao Jianwu understood the truth and agreed with it, and nodded repeatedly. His thoughts actually coincided with Yizhi Wende. However, the same words were said without weight from him, and it was a plan from Yizhi Wende. There was no other reason. Yizhi Wende created the myth of the Sashui Victory, and his authority was at its peak.
Gao Yuan also felt enlightened and listened intently.
"The best way to deal with cervix is to ignore it." Edge Wende continued, "We set up a suspicious formation on the southeastern border, secretly pulled out the main defensive force and transferred it to Pyongyang. At the same time, we transferred the main defensive force to the Dading River and Sashui line, set up a trap in Qingchuan to lure the enemy into deeper, and concentrate our efforts to control the strings."
"I just said that the Martialis are best to deal with. The Martialis seem to be coming in a fierce manner, but in fact they are terrified and anxious. The Martialis have to turn against each other in order to survive. Similarly, in order to survive, they must preserve their strength. Without strength, they are not even qualified to give Middle-earth**, so the Martialis control strings are impossible to attack Pyongyang with all their strength, and they are even more likely to fight against me, Goguryeo. They whistle and whistle
The real purpose of the coming is nothing more than chaotic situations, robbing with fire, and creating opportunities for the Middle-Earth people to cross the Yalu Water East. As long as the Middle-Earth people come east before the rainy season, they can win more time to attack Pyongyang, and the chances of winning will increase greatly. If the situation develops to that point, the Marine Control String and Silla, the Baekje Alliance will definitely meet with the Middle-Earth people at the foot of Pyongyang, and the three enemies will attack Pyongyang together, and then Goguryeo will be destroyed."
Ulzhi Wende's goal is to control the strings with a steer. For this reason, Pyongyang can only give up the Southeast defense line and open its doors to Silla and Baekje coalition. Once this secret is exposed, once it is given to Silla, the Baekje coalition will find out and swarm in. The situation will be terrible. The enemy can reach the city of Pyongyang within a few days. In this way, Pyongyang is attacked from both sides and is in danger.
So after thinking about it, Gao Yuan asked anxiously, "What if the secret is leaked? Who can guarantee that there will be no rebellion in the orphan palace? Yang Xuangan, Zhongtu, Husizheng is a living example. Rebellion is by the side of the Middle Earth Emperor, but the Middle Earth Emperor was ignorant and trusted it more and entrusted it with reuse, but it ended up being defeated."
"We cannot let the situation worsen to the extreme, we cannot let Pyongyang fall into the siege of three enemies, and we cannot let Goguryeo be completely alive." Eddie Moonde calmly and shook his hand calmly, "In order to achieve this goal, we must first block the Middle-earth army from the Yalu River and prevent them from crossing the river before the rainy season. For this reason, we must make some choices."
Choice? Gao Yuan became more anxious and hesitant.
"In comparison, we would rather let Silla and Baekje coalition troops approach the city of Pyongyang than let the Middle-earth army, Mary and Silla and Baekje coalition besiege the capital of Beijing in three directions." Gao Jianwu said in a very decisive tone, "Silla and Baekje coalition have limited strength and there is no possibility of conquering Pyongyang. Goguryeo still has a glimmer of hope. On the contrary, Goguryeo will suffer the disaster of the destruction of the clan and the race."
"The question now is, who else can Gu believe in besides you? How many people are willing to advance and retreat with Gu and live and die with Pyongyang?" Gao Yuan was excited, waved his arms, and shouted at Gao Jianwu, Edge Wende, "If the situation in Pyongyang is far worse than we imagined, then as long as Silla and the Baekje coalition forces are at the city, Pyongyang will be in danger of falling."
Pyongyang fell, and the last glimmer of hope that supported the Goguryeo people was shattered, and Goguryeo collapsed and was wiped out in an instant.
Yizhi Wende and Gao Jianwu looked at each other, and a trace of haze flashed through their eyes.
Gao Yuan’s worries are not without reason. The Southeast defense line is useless and the door is wide open; Pyongyang’s main force comes out in full swing to fight Sashui; the rebels hidden inside are ready to move, and several unfavorable factors gather together, and the consequences can be imagined.
"The king goes to Chang'an." Yizhi Wende decisively suggested, "The prime minister stays in Pyongyang, I go to Sashui."
Goguryeo also has Chang'an City, which is the capital of Pyongyang, more than 200 miles away from Pyongyang. During the reign of King Gaotang, he moved the capital to Chang'an City, which was the political center of Goguryeo, but due to various complex reasons, Chang'an City ultimately failed to replace Pyongyang. After Gao Yuan succeeded to the throne, he moved the capital back to Pyongyang, and Chang'an City became the capital.
Gao Yuan is the king of Goguryeo and the core of Goguryeo's political center. Pyongyang can fall, but Gao Yuan cannot die. Therefore, the suggestions of Eji Wende can temporarily alleviate the real crisis.
"I want to go to Sashui." Gao Yuan symbolically expressed his personal wishes.
Gao Jianwu and Yizhi Wende vetoed without thinking. In this major decision that concerns the survival of Goguryeo, Gao Yuan's personal wishes were directly ignored.
