Chu Qing didn't have any big ideals. After returning from the East China Sea, he just had one goal and walked around the capital.
Now he can walk sideways, let alone walk sideways, he can jump up and down with his bare buttocks high, and the supervisors have to go around.
The matter with King You and Monk Shangshan had nothing to do with whether to go sideways or not. It was an internal family matter, and because it involved some other issues, Chu Qingcai didn't act so arrogantly, and he didn't dare to bare his buttocks.
However, Chu Qing felt that it was worth it. The prince was more powerful than Huang Laosi. Huang Laosi supported him, but he always had to extort money. The prince directly borrowed the money and issued an order, and all the people in the world continued to investigate Buddhism.
One word, strict, anything that violates the laws of Chang'an will not be tolerated, even if it is a violation of Chang's laws.
But after he actually started walking sideways, Chu Qing realized that the place he wanted to walk sideways was not the capital, but a place where he could walk carefree and unrestrained, and his heart became wild.
He didn't want to stay in Beijing, but he couldn't leave Beijing forever, so he needed a reason. Coincidentally, the Goguryeo envoy came.
The messenger was called again.
The prince didn't understand what he meant.
The Goguryeo envoy did not understand its meaning.
All civil and military officials were also confused and confused.
Chu Qing left his shift, looked at the envoy and said straight to the point: "Reducing my form, will you give it or not?"
Liang Canlong was ashamed and angry, shaking his head firmly.
"Then I won't surrender."
"Lord Chu, our country is willing to become a vassal state..."
Chu Qing showed a serious sneer: "Although Goguryeo sent a mission and said it was willing to become a vassal state, it did not surrender. What does it mean? Are you saying that you are not convinced?"
"Goguryeo is willing to respect Dachang as its supreme kingdom..." Liang Canlong gritted his teeth and said, "What does Dachang want from me, Goguryeo?"
"Lower the table!"
"impossible!"
This was what Chu Qing was waiting for. He turned around and looked at the prince: "I propose that we increase the number of troops in the East China Sea and attack Goguryeo. It would be disrespectful to come and go without going back. I and the Ying soldiers almost killed the leader of the Goguryeo navy. I am willing to personally lead the army."
…”
"No!"
Nangong Xi walked out quickly, looked at Chu Qing, with an incomprehensible look on his face, shook his head slightly, and said in a gentle tone: "Goguryeo has been sincere and willing to become a vassal state, but now..."
"But they didn't hand over the surrender form."
Nangong Xi turned to look at the prince, very confused.
What Chu Qing didn't know was that after the court dismissed yesterday, the prince called Nangong Xi and Qin Gang to the Jingyi Hall, and the three of them studied it for a long time.
The prince mentioned the matter of lowering his rank, just to delay it. He wrote a letter personally and had it sent to Goguryeo, asking the fourth son what he meant. If the fourth son really just wanted the courtiers to beg him to go back, then
Negotiate peace with Goguryeo.
After all, Huang Laosi is also an emperor and a person who wants to be respected. The imperial court will just give him a way out.
In addition, Qin Gang also analyzed the battle situation on the front line.
Although his presence in front of Chu Qing is not high, he and Lao Chu are still known as the two heroes of Zhongzhou.
It is worth mentioning that, in fact, these two heroes are, how should I say, just like an exam.
Qin Gang got 100 points in the exam because of his hard work.
Lao Chu also scored 100 points in the exam because the full score was only 100 points.
This is roughly the situation, and this is how the two heroes of Zhongzhou are known as one who is good at defense and one who is good at offense.
In any case, Qin Gang is also a top student with 100% points in the exam, and it is not for nothing. After analyzing the results of his guesses and the actual situation, he has already analyzed the situation in Goguryeo.
The fourth child and the Supreme Emperor probably can't fight anymore.
Don't consider supply lines or anything like that, just talk about geography.
War does not end in a matter of days. Goguryeo looks small and has many cities, so it is not impossible to fight for several years.
It's summer now, and autumn is about to start, and it will get colder when autumn comes. Autumn in Goguryeo is basically the same as winter in Beijing. If it comes to winter, it will be very cold.
Let's put it this way, in Beijing, "frozen to death" is an adjective, but over there in Goguryeo, "frozen to death" is a cause of death.
The fourth child and the Supreme Emperor were running too fast. They were just running to enjoy themselves from the beginning, rather than to conquer the country.
Why did wars last for several years in ancient times? It doesn’t mean that we do them every day or all the time. If we really do this, we won’t be able to bear it. After a battle, especially an siege battle or a city defense battle, the battle is over and we win.
Regardless of whether they win or lose, each side must repair the city wall, replenish soldiers, organize baggage, etc.
The reason why Huang Laosi was able to move so fiercely was because of the gunpowder crossbow and the powerful fire oil. Relying on these two things to fight the city siege, you can imagine what kind of damage it would cause to the city wall.
Fight fast, fight more, and occupy more cities, but after the fight, Lao Si doesn't care much, doesn't care much, and doesn't fight steadily and step by step. Under this premise, the deeper you go, the more dangerous it is, unless
They kept sending troops over to occupy the city and defend it.
This inevitably involves another issue, which is the waste of troops.
In fact, the fourth child had no intention of occupying Goguryeo's territory. He just wanted to take revenge on Chu Qing in the past.
Once autumn enters, starting from the end of autumn, the weather, location, people, and Chang's army will all be lost. Unless the Dachang Dynasty continues to reinforce and support at the expense of national power, even then, the difficulty factor will increase exponentially.
There is another issue involved here. It is true that we are attacking Goguryeo now.
Everyone knows that lips are cold and teeth are dead. There was not only Goguryeo in that place, but also Baekje and Silla.
Baekje and Silla are not fools. They may help Goguryeo at any time and form an alliance to fight against Changjun. Maybe they have already begun to prepare for an alliance.
It's not a home game, it's an away game. The battle line is so long. The captured cities are not properly cleaned up, and there are not that many troops stationed. The most important problem is the cold weather. With so many problems added together, unless Chu Wensheng personally
In the past, no one could fight.
Fighting Goguryeo is different from fighting Yingdao.
When Chu Qing defeated Yingdao, he was already in an invincible position. What about defending the city? Whose city it was and where to put it?
Oh, you said those ruins are gone, the city is gone, not to mention the city, the woods have been burned down by you, the entrance to the sea has been blocked by you, what official roads and mountain roads are all blown up, we
No, no one wants it, it’s completely different from the situation in Goguryeo.
This is the result of Qin Gang's analysis. The fourth child does not want to fight, is not willing to fight, and cannot fight.
The prince and Nangong Xi agreed that this should be the case.
So when Nangong Xi saw Chu Qing's fuss, he quickly stood up to stop him and stopped as soon as he was ready. Come on, for fear of making others anxious.
Nangong Xi has Nangong Xi’s thoughts, and Chu Qing has Chu Qing’s thoughts.
Nangong Xi believes that Huang Laosi was unable to defeat Goguryeo because Qin Gang was right.
Chu Qing believed that Huang Laosi could defeat Goguryeo because he knew that Huang Laosi was lacking someone, and it was Chu Qing who was missing.
Baekje is famous for being a bone-crunching boy. A man who weighs eighty pounds has gained seventy-nine pounds.
At the beginning, Chu Qing really thought that if he reached the level of strength, he would directly kill Baekje.
As for Silla, they could be won over. Chu Qing felt that Silla must be more obedient than Goguryeo, especially obedient.
Huang Laosi cannot continue the fight because he is not fighting a war to destroy the country and has no long-term plan.
Then the essence of the problem is that if you plan to completely occupy that place in the long term, you will definitely be able to fight and win, and carve out a large territory for the Dachang Dynasty. The Three Roads of the East China Sea have long been accustomed to wars, and they can even fight before the war.
In prosperity, these are the three roads of the East China Sea, the place Chu Qing longs for. From the East China Sea, a road can be paved to the top of the world!
"Master Nangong is unaware of something. Goguryeo seems to be submissive now, but this so-called covenant and so-called promise are just a piece of waste paper and empty words."
Chu Qing said calmly: "Once upon a time, Goguryeo said that it would not invade our Dachang state, but when I, the commander-in-chief, was fighting on Yingdao, what were the Goguryeo navy doing? Didn't they still want to sneak attack on my Donghai navy?"
Nangong Xi was speechless when he heard this. He couldn't refute these words.
In fact, many times the so-called covenant is just like this. Now that you are powerful, people call you big brother, but in fact they treat you as the big brother.
One day when you are weak and the person who calls you Big Brother is stronger than you, he will make a pact with you, and he will be the first one to fuck you.
Even if the Dachang Dynasty, which claims to be a state of etiquette, for example, has diplomatic relations with Liangrong, and now Liangrong is in civil strife, it is nothing. How can Dachang not go and kill him? Will it still abide by the so-called covenant? No, absolutely
No, even if the covenant is torn up, the courtiers will not scold you, let alone the people, because as long as your country is strong and the people of the country live in peace and contentment, then you must do it.
At most, it's just a group of Confucian scholars who force Lai Lai and say a few words about not abiding by the covenant.
