"Hmph, I am Li Yan, the governor of Dengzhou. I led a large army here today. If I can't get anyone, you will be responsible for the consequences!" Li Yan also shouted angrily. He deliberately acted so tough, but they dared not.

He was good at starting a war. After all, for Goguryeo, the giant Tang Dynasty could never be provoked.

When Yuan Jingwu heard that the other party was the King of Qi Li Yan, he was shocked. He looked Li Yan up and down a few times in disbelief, and then bowed and said, "I don't know about His Highness, the minister of the country.

If you arrive, you deserve to die!"

There is a reason why Yuan Jingwu and the others showed such respect to Li Yan. At the end of the Han Dynasty, Goguryeo took advantage of the civil strife in the Central Plains to gradually annex Liaodong and other places. During the Former Sui Dynasty, Goguryeo had strong self-reliance and national strength.

He didn't even take the Sui Dynasty seriously, and even secretly contacted the Turks. This angered the Sui Dynasty and launched troops to attack Goguryeo several times, especially when he encountered Emperor Yang of Sui, who was a 25-year-old army, and he was always a conquering country.

Although the invasion ended in failure, it also caused the national strength of Goguryeo to decline and the people's courage to live. Therefore, Goguryeo has always been very respectful to the Tang Dynasty that was in the Sui Dynasty, for fear of being provoked again.

The disaster that year happened.

"Hmph, I am here today and I will give you two choices. One is to hand over the person respectfully, and the other is to lead the commander to go straight in and grab the person back in person!" Li Yan did not do so because of this.

The other party's respect softens its attitude, and it is still the same as the toughness just now. He is now playing a 25th prince. The more he is arrogant and rude, the more he cares about him. After all, everyone is afraid that his mind will get hot.

caused war between the two countries.

Sure enough, Li Yan's toughness made Yuan Jingwu sweat on his forehead, and An Yiluo also looked nervous, and his eyes swept Yuan Jingwu from time to time. The other party was in charge of the arrest of the person, so he didn't even let him participate.

Now he doesn’t know who Yuan Jingwu is going to capture?

Under the threat of Li Yan, Yuan Jingwu's face was unstable. If this incident caused a war between the two countries, even if the Yuan family protected him, he would definitely not be able to escape death. But if he agreed to let him go.

It is likely to let that person escape, and that huge secret is likely to spread. No one can predict what consequences will be caused by that time?

"Your Highness, we have no malice to the merchants in your country, but that person is too important to us. As long as they can hand over that person, we will release them immediately!" Yuan Jingwu gritted his teeth,

Finally, I insisted.

"Okay, okay! It seems that you don't take my Tang Dynasty seriously." Li Yan said hatefully, then turned around and told Liu Ju again. "General Liu, since they don't agree, we can only be on the battlefield.

Give an order!”

Although Li Yan's tone was very firm when he spoke, he blinked at the other party when he looked at Liu Ju. The other party was a little guilty from the beginning. Although he was still persisting, he was actually shaken in his heart. Now this is the only thing left.

The last blow was there.

Liu Ju is also a smart person. When he saw Li Yan's eyes, he also said to An Yiluo with a murderous look on his face: "Since that's the case, then we can only meet each other and return to the flight!"

Hearing Liu Ju's order, the soldiers on the car immediately turned the bow of the ship and were about to leave. An Yiluo looked nervously at the Tang navy opposite. Not only did the other party have more ships than them, but also those fierce buildings.

The boats are even more daunting. Although their Goguryeo water army also imitates the Tang Dynasty building ships, their technology is not up to standard, and their quality is much smaller, and their quality is not as good as others. If they fight, they will definitely not be

The opponents of the Tang Dynasty could only hide in the port and compete with the opponent with the advantage of the situation.

"Your Highness, please stay!" At this critical moment, Yuan Jingwu finally did not dare to conflict with the Tang Dynasty, so he could only call Li Yan with a depressed look on his face, "We will make a fortune!"

Hearing Yuan Jingwu's words, not only nervous An Yiluo wiped his cold sweat with confidence, but even Li Yan and Liu Ju were secretly relieved. Li Yan was not Li You's 25, if it were because of a few maritime merchants.

If it triggers a war between the two countries, even if Li Shimin protects him, it will definitely not be too easy in the end. At least a scolding is inevitable, and even his position as the governor of Dengzhou may not be guaranteed.

"Haha, those who know the current affairs are heroes..." Li Yan wanted to praise the other party a few words, but he suddenly realized that he didn't know what the fat and ugly guy was named, but he was thick-skinned and changed his words when he said this.

He asked, "I wonder what this brother is called?"

"Your Highness, the little minister is named Yuan Jingwu. His brother Yuan Gaisuwen is responsible for the position of Grand Lu in our country!" Yuan Jingwu replied weakly. He was thinking in his heart how to get in touch with his brother when he went back.

I was actually messed up with important things. The other brothers who were jealous of me still didn't know how to laugh at me?

Li Yan didn't know what Lu was, but when he heard that the other party was Yuan Gaisuwen's younger brother, Li Yan was shocked. Yuan Gaisuwen was an amazing guy in history, although he was right

The high-pressure rule in the country was even more messy, but the people were able to compete with the Tang Dynasty for decades with the power of a small country. It was not until his death that the Tang Dynasty took advantage of the opportunity of civil strife in Goguryeo to completely use this.

A small country that has been established for hundreds of years will be eradicated.

In fact, not only Li Yan was surprised, but also Liu Ju was shocked. He knew the situation in Goguryeo than anyone else, and knew the Yuan family very well. He immediately clasped his fists and smiled: "I didn't expect that he was the famous Yuan brothers,

Loss of respect!”

Li Yan also woke up and smiled at the other party, "It turns out it's Brother Yuan. Since this is a misunderstanding, then we are here waiting for you to hand over the people. We will withdraw our troops as soon as the people arrive!"

Yuan Jingwu and An Yiluo did not dare to delay, so they quickly turned the bow of the ship. Li Yan and the others also returned to the boat. It took most of the time to wait. Just as Li Yan was a little impatient, they saw the other port.

After sailing out of a fleet, the ship sailed very slowly for some reason. When he was approaching, Li Yan discovered that the ships in the entire fleet were like ravaged girls, and each ship was covered with scars on the hull.

There are even many large holes that have been dug out by man. Now they have only used a few wooden boards to make up for it. If there is a little wind and waves, there will be another batch of shipwrecks in the Bohai Bay.

It would be fine if these ships were just miserable, but when Li Yan saw the people on the ship clearly, he immediately felt a surge of anger. He saw that the crew members on it were all ragged, with a listless expression, and many people on their faces.

, arms and other places were bandaged. From the blood seeping out from above, it can be guessed that the injuries suffered must be quite serious. As for the smiley tiger and the one-eyed shark, not only were the bodies bandaged like mummies, but they even stood there.

Unstable, there were two people around him supporting them. No wonder they waited for so long before they came out. It was probably because Yuan Jingwu was afraid that Li Yan would get angry when he saw the wounds of these people, so he asked someone to bandage Tiger Shark and the others.

"Bastard!" Looking at the miserable appearance of the tiger sharks and others, Li Yan punched the boat on the side of the ship. He really wanted to order the army to rush over without hesitation, so that the other party could know the power of the Tang Dynasty. Unfortunately, reason told him that he could not do this.

impulse.

"Grassip people pay homage to Your Highness, thank you for your rescue!" The smiling tiger and the one-eyed shark were pressed to Liu Ju's boat. When they saw Li Yan standing on the bow of the boat, they immediately stepped forward and knelt on the ground, looking grateful.

Said.

"Get up quickly, you are injured. Don't aggravate your injuries because of these false rituals." Li Yan hurriedly helped the two mummies up and comforted them a few more words. He was about to ask why they were caught, but suddenly he heard

Yan Bei next to him shouted, "Huh? What is that?"

Li Yan turned his head and saw that a water column several meters high appeared on the sea where the two countries' naval forces confronted each other. After Liu Ju saw the water column, he immediately smiled and said, "Shi Yan doesn't know anything, that

It is the whales in the sea that are squirting water. Because the whale is extremely huge and lives in the sea, the fishermen around them are called dragons, so this phenomenon is also called "Dragons come out of water."

Just as Liu Ju was explaining, the whale's back slowly floated to the surface, and the light was exposed was more than two meters long. It was estimated that the whale under the water was at least four or five meters long. However, Li Yan was hearing Liu.

After the commentary, he curled his lips. What does whale squirt water mean? It’s obvious that people are breathing well, but they are really uneducated.

Looking at the huge size of the whale, Yan Bei suddenly realized: "Oh, it turns out that this is a whale. I only heard of whales in the sea, with a length of several feet. I didn't believe it, but today I saw it, it turned out to be well-known."

"Come, aim the crossbow arrow on the boat at the whale. I want to taste the whale meat today!" Seeing this whale that attracted the attention of the naval forces of the two countries, Li Yan suddenly turned his eyes and immediately spoke to order

He said, he was worried that the anger in his stomach could not be vented, but unexpectedly, an excellent punching bag appeared immediately, and shooting whales in front of the Goguryeo people was also a good deterrent method.

"Your Highness, this whale is a magical object in the sea, and you can't shoot it!" Liu Ju was immediately startled and hurriedly persuaded. The fishermen called the whale a dragon, so they naturally respected it.

Usually when fishing, they will hide immediately when they see them, let alone come forward to hunt them.

"Divine object? That's even better. Come on, do it for me!" Li Yan was even more happy when he saw Liu Ju, who even saw his life as if he was a mustard of grass. He felt even more happy. It seemed that ancient people were about this.

A huge animal still has great awe in her heart. If she can shoot it, the deterrence effect will be better. After all, in the eyes of the other party, the Tang Dynasty dares to kill such a magical object, so

Is there anything they dare not do?

But Li Yan forgot that even general Liu Ju dared not attack the whale, so would anyone on the boat dare to attack the whale? (To be continued)
