In the eighth hundred and forty-ninth year of the First Emperor's calendar, in the second year of Zhenguan, it was March 30th, noon.
Wang Jishan, the Minister of Rites, came to Yingbin Garden in person.
"Brother Cui! I don't know how Goguryeo will respond. Tomorrow is the first day of April." Wang Jishan got straight to the point and directly explained his purpose.
The Goguryeo envoy let out a long sigh, and his sunken eye sockets made him look very haggard.
After sighing heavily, he took out a letter and put it on the table: "I really don't want this day to come, but since there is no new news until now, it is already a doomed fact.
.I, the Cui clan, are willing to surrender to the Tang Dynasty and offer the inner city. This is a letter of surrender jointly signed by the elders of my Cui clan."
"In this case, don't live here anymore. The Cui family of Qinghe has made arrangements. The courtyard and servants have been prepared. After this battle, the Cui family of Qinghe will hold a grand ceremony to recognize their ancestors and return to the clan. By then, the Cui family of your peninsula will
Nan Cui will participate. In a few years, the four major families of the peninsula will be the real owners of the peninsula."
"Dare you ask these four people?"
"The first family is the Kim family of Silla. The second family is the Buyeo family of Baekje. The third family is the Choi family of the Peninsula. The fourth family is the Lu family of the Peninsula!" When mentioning the Lu family, Wang Jishan added: "Lu family
The clan was first established in the peninsula by the 11th generation grandson of Jiang Taigong. They were in North Gyeongsang Province. They are also from the same clan as the Lu family of the Tang Dynasty."
The Goguryeo envoy understood and nodded silently: "I will move to the residence arranged by the Cui family in Qinghe today, but there are many in the envoy who are my disciples and trustworthy people."
"Don't worry, the Cui family will naturally make arrangements. If you want to move, you can't just pack your luggage and leave. Naturally, it needs to be more grand. Since you are also a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, you can make arrangements for whoever you want to move! I will go first."
Wang Jishan did it for the letter of surrender. With this, it was too late for the Cui family to regret it.
By then, the Goguryeo family would no longer be able to accommodate them.
In the afternoon of that day, the Qinghe Cui family's motorcade to Yingbinyuan was lined up five streets away, and all the newspapers in Chang'an City were asked to postpone some news for one day.
Li Yuanxing had already arrived in Yaozhou this afternoon.
Wu Zhao ordered someone to hand a parachute to Lu Maofeng, and said: "We have already trained. Once something goes wrong with the airship, put this on His Highness as soon as possible, and then you should also put it on immediately and tie it tightly.
This is a fatal thing, only with this can we be foolproof!"
Li Yuanxing said nothing and allowed Wu Zhao to manipulate him. He then asked Lu Maofeng and four personal guards to try it on him again.
Wu Zhao nodded with satisfaction while holding a stopwatch: "Within four seconds, that's good. You also need to work in groups of three to help each other. The shorter the time it takes for all three of you to put on your clothes, the safer you will be. Even if something goes wrong with the airship,
There will also be half a stick of incense for you to escape, so don’t be too nervous.”
"There is nothing to be nervous about, nothing can knock down my flying fortress!"
Wu Zhao did not listen to this: "Yes, strong convective weather is very dangerous, super-voltage thunder and lightning, and frightened birds. These three are the most dangerous in the air. I have trained them in emergency response
, but I haven’t had a test flight, so I don’t feel reassured.”
"Deterrence is greater than actual combat, so don't worry!" Li Yuanxing was calming Wu Zhao. Wu Zhao sat on Li Yuanxing's lap and said in a very small voice: "You must be careful. If there is any danger, use your time."
The machine escapes back to modern times, and if you do anything wrong, I won’t be able to live anymore!”
"You!" Li Yuanxing smiled and nodded.
Wu Zhao wanted to say something else, but Li Yuanxing stopped her, and then said to Lu Maofeng: "Pegasus went to Qinwangzhuang's secret warehouse, brought back thirty telescopes, and then asked the Ministry of Rites to invite some envoys, and told them that Goguryeo had broken the promise and invited them to watch the battle.
, especially the envoys from Baekje and Silla, there must be less."
Li Yuanxing thought for a while and then said: "Send someone to call Ichijo Hui and tell him that the king needs a scribe to send troops!"
"Yes!" Lu Maofeng immediately went to make arrangements.
"Let's go and see how things are going at Sun Laodao's place. It's been three days."
Sun Laodao was very busy, but very excited. Because this was the first time he actually used a knife on someone who was not a prisoner. There was no technical content in installing a urine catheter on Eunuch Gao, but he cut the flesh on Wu Bin's arm and buried some strange things.
Something, and it also needs to be in a specific location, which is really challenging.
Wu Bin is a real tough guy.
I heard that using anesthetics would affect future reactions, but I didn’t use any medicine at all. I just watched Sun Laodao cut open the flesh on his severed limb again and again, and then sewed it back up. His eyes were so bloody.
Didn't even blink.
When Li Yuanxing came in, Wu Bin was trying to put on the main body of the prosthesis.
"Wu Bin, I've made you suffer."
"The general will not be miserable, these things will excite the general!" Wu Bin had a smile on his face.
Looking at the table, there are a total of eighteen accessories.
It ranges from three-spindle spurs to large chain hammers. The more sophisticated ones include a shotgun and a submachine gun. The more crude ones include a one-and-a-half-foot-long knife. The most common one is a prosthetic hand that looks like a human hand.
It's just that it can't be used like a real hand, it's just two movements of opening and closing.
Even simpler, it is just a pair of pliers that can grasp objects instead of hands.
"Before the wound has healed, you are not allowed to use those things, especially the Thunder Explosion God Strike. You must not use it!" Sun Laodao shouted to Wu Bin.
The Thunderbolt is a shotgun mounted on a prosthetic arm, and requires a separate bullet for each shot.
These weapons have been tested, and the power of the spray gun is higher than that of Li Yuanxing. The steel plate as thick as a coin has left countless marks. If it were a human being, he would have died a hundred times.
That submachine gun is faster. As long as you press it, all the 45 bullets in the magazine will be fired in six seconds.
It uses a sensor chip buried under the nerve, and then transmits it to the controller of the arm. Wu Bin still needs to be familiar with this, otherwise it is easy to accidentally injure himself or other people.
Yaozhou craftsmen also made a new battle uniform specially for Wu Bin to wear these things on his body.
Li Yuanxing praised Wu Bin a few more words, and then said to Konoe Zhongren, who had been guarding Wu Bin: "Your master lost this arm while fighting for the Tang Dynasty. He has merit, so he will be rewarded. Those parts these days
It will be kept by you and will not be used until a month later. For now, I can only install a prosthetic hand!"
"Yes!" Konoe Tadayoshi shouted loudly.
He is even more obedient to Wu Bin. He can cut someone's arm open with a knife without even frowning. This is a real swordsman.
"In this battle, you and Yidao will stay with me. Have a good rest tonight and go to battle tomorrow!" Li Yuanxing said and turned to leave.
Finally, the first day of April arrived.
Is Chang'an City peaceful?
The city of Chang'an is still as quiet as water. The people get up early in the morning, open shops, sprinkle water, sweep the streets, and sell breakfast as before.
But all the people in Chang'an seemed to be looking at the closed newsstands on the streets of Chang'an intentionally or unintentionally. Eight months ago, you Goguryeo people forced me, the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, to walk naked in the Chang'an market.
And today is the first day of April. What happened to Goguryeo and what happened to the Tang Dynasty.
No one discussed or asked. Most of them were silently watching the newsstands that had expired for about half an hour but had not yet opened their doors.
Newspapers have become a part of people's life in Chang'an, an indispensable part.
The common people believe that the answers they want will appear in the newspapers. The King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty cannot be humiliated, and the Empire of the Tang Dynasty must not be humiliated!
Many soldiers suddenly appeared on the street!
No, they are not soldiers. Although they are wearing the military uniforms of the Tang Dynasty, the military uniforms do not seem to be standard because the materials are different and the styles are somewhat different. More importantly, the people wearing the military uniforms are remnants of the army.
They are reporters!
"War!" Almost at the same time, at the entrances of all newsstands in the entire city of Chang'an, eight hundred newspaper officials in Chang'an used all their strength to shout just one word.
Almost at the same time, on the tower of Zhuque Gate, the gate guard held an imperial edict and shouted: "Fight!"
In the southern suburbs of Chang'an, Qinwangzhuang had not heard a piercing siren for a year, breaking the tranquility of the early morning.
The twelve guard camps of the Tang Dynasty were beating with war drums. Chang'an City Guards, Chang'an Imperial Guards, and Imperial Palace Guards were on duty in armor. Nineteen battle flags of titles and one hundred and ninety-seven battle flags of generals were raised in front of the main entrance of the Ministry of War.
All generals in Chang'an City have a halberd or a horizontal sword stuck in front of their door.
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the first real all-out foreign war in history was in 630 AD. It was a total war against the Eastern Turks.
Li Yuanxing's first foreign war in this timeline was a response, not an attack.
The second foreign war was strictly a sneak attack.
And this time, it was also the first real full-scale declaration of war. The Tang Empire declared full-scale war on Goguryeo.
The entire atmosphere of Chang'an City changed after the news from the newspaper, and the war began. The people could not feel the war, but they knew the horror of the war, and many people had experienced the pain of war.
On the top of the Zhuque Gate, a minister from the Ministry of Civil Affairs borrowed a loudspeaker to read a new imperial edict loudly.
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, His Royal Highness the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, General Tiance's Mansion of the Tang Dynasty, Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, Shangshu Province, Tianying Pavilion, Staff Department, War Department, and Rites Department of the Tang Dynasty. Xiao Yu was appointed as the Governor of Liaodong Road and the second-grade general manager.
Liaodong Road is responsible for the affairs. Niu Jinda is appointed as the general of Liaodong Road, in charge of the military affairs of Liaodong Road. Yao Silian is appointed as the third-rank Liaodong Road Chief Shi, in charge of the government affairs of Liaodong Road. He will take office today!"
Xiao Yu reported a policy statement in Chang'an and caused him to lose his official position and was directly demoted to a ninth-grade official.
On the first day of April, the Tang Dynasty declared war on Goguryeo. Xiao Yu was promoted from the ninth rank to the second rank, and was in charge of the Liaodong Road. Where was the Liaodong Road at this time? It was still in the hands of the Goguryeo people!
While the people were whispering, the sky suddenly darkened, and two huge black shadows a hundred feet long over Chang'an City blocked the rising sun. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
