Nine hundred and ninetieth chapters willing to be a dog
What kind of person is Liu Bei? When he was in the Central Plains, he was the man who tricked almost all the princes in the world.
What kind of people are those princes? Although they were all defeated by Yan Liang, if they were taken out alone, no matter which dynasty or generation they were placed in, they would all be able to become emperors.
How can Gao Yanyou and those Goguryeo people compare with these heroes from the Central Plains? It would be a great miracle that he was not tricked by Liu Bei.
Now, Yan Liang can naturally use the tone he had expected to mock Gao Shanggong.
Gao Shanggong was both flustered and ashamed. He couldn't say anything for a long time, and suddenly he knelt down in front of Yan Liang.
"Your Majesty, I and my son have realized their mistake. I beg your Majesty to save my father. I beg your Majesty to save my father." Gao Shanggong fell to his knees on the ground and began to cry to Yan Liang.
Gao Shanggong's cry and begging played into Yan Liang's hands.
Yan Liang raised the corners of his mouth and waved his hands: "You grown man, what do you look like when you cry? Don't act like a girl. Get up."
Then Gao Shanggong burst into tears and looked at Yan Liang with longing eyes.
"I won't hide it from you. I have decided to use all my troops to kill Liu Bei personally. If you are willing to obey and cooperate, I may consider pardoning the sins of your father and son." Yan Liang's tone softened a bit.
Gao Shanggong was shaken and asked in a low voice: "I wonder what your Majesty wants me to do?"
"It's very simple." Yan Liang didn't mince words, "I want to support you as the king of Goguryeo, and ask you to call on the Goguryeo people and tell them not to succumb to Liu Bei's power and not to stop my army from conquering. It's that simple."
Gao Shanggong's expression suddenly changed, and he was stunned for a moment. A hint of excitement quietly flashed in his eyes.
Yan Liang smiled secretly. With his insight, Gao Shanggong's psychological changes could not escape his eagle eyes.
Gao Shanggong was just one of Gao Yanyou's sons. In the future, no one would have his turn as the king of Goguryeo. He was destined to be a law-abiding prince.
Now that Goguryeo is undergoing internal changes, Gao Yanyou and his brothers have all fallen into the hands of Liu Bei. But he, an inconspicuous prince, has become the lucky one to escape from Liu Bei's clutches.
Under this special situation, Gao Shanggong was naturally qualified to inherit the throne.
What's more, since he, the King of Goguryeo, has the support of the behemoth Chu State, he will be even more justified.
Gao Shanggong, who had never thought of being a king, was stunned by this sudden good thing. He was surprised and happy for a while, and he was a little overwhelmed.
Seeing through his thoughts, Yan Liang sneered and said: "Gao Yanyou is so incompetent, how can he be qualified to be the leader of a country? I think you have some knowledge. I intend to help you ascend to the position of king. Don't be ignorant.
.”
This statement is another threat.
Under the double squeeze of temptation and threat, the hesitation in Gao Shanggong's heart was quickly disappearing. After pondering for a moment, his expression suddenly became determined.
Phew!
Gao Shanggong knelt down on the ground again and kowtowed: "I am willing to obey your majesty's arrangements. If your majesty can save our country, Goguryeo, from fire and water, I and the people of Goguryeo will regard Dachu as the suzerain state from generation to generation and will be my ministers forever."
Shit will be a minister forever. If Chu declines in a few hundred years, it would be strange if you don't add insult to injury and take advantage of the opportunity to cannibalize it.
The best way is of course to destroy you. In this case, you will be able to enjoy the kindness of being a minister for generations to come.
Yan Liang secretly sarcastically comforted the exploitable Gao Shanggong, claiming that as long as he obeyed, nothing would be a problem in the future.
Gao Shanggong was extremely grateful, but he was thinking secretly in his heart: "Today I used Yan Liang's hand to get rid of Liu Bei and take back the country of Goguryeo. In the future, I will go through many attempts to rule and make Goguryeo stronger. How can I surrender to you Yan Liang again?"
,snort."
Yan Liang didn't know what Gao Shang Gong was thinking, and he didn't bother to know what this kid was thinking. In short, after using Gao Shang Gong, the Goguryeo Kingdom would be destroyed no matter what.
Therefore, Yan Liang officially issued an edict to confer Gao Shanggong as the King of Goguryeo and deposed Gao Yanyou from the throne.
At the same time, Yan Liang ordered Jin Yiwei to spread the news that Gaoshang Palace was king throughout Goguryeo, inciting the Goguryeo people to resist Liu Bei and come to Gaoshang Palace.
The writers even claimed that Da Chu's conquest was in response to the invitation of their new king, Gao Shanggong, to conquer Goguryeo just to get rid of Liu Bei.
At the same time as the news spread, Yan Liang had mobilized a hundred thousand troops, and with the puppet Gao Shanggong, marched toward Liaodong in a mighty manner.
Going north to Youzhou and passing through Binhai Road, an army totaling more than 300,000 people continued to advance towards the location of Xuantu County.
Because in the early years, after Yan Liang destroyed Wuhuan, he sent more than 100,000 tribesmen from Wuhuan to build a coastal road, so this road along the river is now smooth and easy to travel.
According to the normal marching speed, Yan Liang could have arrived in Liaodong within ten days and launched an attack on Goguryeo.
But this time, Yan Liang deliberately slowed down his marching speed, marching slowly and unhurriedly.
Yan Liang did this, naturally, in order to maximize the role of the chess piece of Gaoshang Palace and buy more time for the Goryeo people to resist Liu Bei.
Sure enough, after the news spread that Gao Shanggong was proclaimed king, it caused a great shock to the Goguryeo people.
Originally, even if the Goguryeo people wanted to resist Liu Bei, they could only dare to get angry but dare not speak out because there was no call from a noble person.
Now that Gaoshanggong, the prince of the Gao family, has become king, he has undoubtedly set a target of allegiance to Goguryeo. Therefore, thousands of Goguryeo officials and people who did not want to be ruled by Liu Bei fled from Goguryeo one after another and entered the four counties of Liaodong.
Come and seek refuge in Gaoshang Palace.
Many of the garrisons in various parts of Goguryeo, as well as the prefects and ministers, also openly changed their banners and declared that they would no longer obey the orders issued by Wandu City and instead be loyal to Gaoshang Palace.
In order to suppress these rebellious counties, Liu Bei had to issue an order in the name of Gao Yanyou to denounce Gao Shanggong as a treasonous traitor, and sent troops to quell the rebellion.
The country of Goguryeo was at war for a while, with the people loyal to Gao Yanyou and the faction supporting Gaoshang Palace fighting endlessly with each other.
When war broke out in Goguryeo, Yan Liang led the army and had just arrived in Changli County.
At this time, Yan Liang had received news of the civil strife in Goguryeo, and he realized that he had used Pang Tong's strategy and had severely damaged Goguryeo's vitality before even losing a single soldier.
Before the battle, Liu Bei had already lost.
Yan Liang immediately ordered the army to continue marching eastward, crossing the thawed Liao River in a few days, entering Xuantu County, and soon arrived at Gaoguli City, the county seat.
Outside the city of Gaoguli, Lü Meng, Man Chong, Ma Dai, Pang De and other Liaodong generals had been waiting for a long time to welcome the holy driver.
This was Yan Liang's second visit to Liaodong since he defeated Wuhuan. It was also a few years later that he met Lu Meng again, a general who had been stationed in Liaodong and had made great achievements in hard work.
Yan Liang was very pleased, so he comforted Lu Meng and others, and entered the city with the generals.
After walking into the palace, the emperor and his ministers sat down, and Yan Liang asked Lu Meng about the affairs of Goguryeo.
"The kingdom of Goguryeo is in chaos. Although Liu Bei captured Gao Yanyou, rebellions broke out among the Goguryeo people because of Gaoshang Palace. The areas he could control were only several core towns such as Wandu and Liangkou. I think
It is the right time to send troops at this time."
Lu Meng's analysis is basically consistent with the information sent back by Jin Yiwei.
"Where are those Goguryeo people? How many of them fled to Liaodong and came to Gaoshang Palace." Yan Liang asked again.
"Nearly 20,000 people have fled to Liaodong in recent months, and I have placed them all in the Gaoxian County area." Lu Meng replied.
Yan Liang nodded and warned: "You need to send more troops and horses, and keep these Goguryeo people under tight guard. Don't let them escape. After I defeat Goguryeo, these people will have their own use."
Lu Meng immediately agreed, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "I'm sorry to be honest, but I don't know what your Majesty plans to do with these Goguryeo after pacifying Goguryeo. Does your Majesty really intend to rename Gaoshang Palace as the King of Goguryeo and let Goguryeo become the king of Goguryeo?"
Am I the great Chu vassal state?"
The favored Ma Dai generals looked at Yan Liang one after another, obviously they also wanted to know Yan Liang's true purpose.
"Wuhuan and Xianbei have all been destroyed. Do you think I will allow Goguryeo to exist alone?" Yan Liang snorted coldly, with a solemn tone, "After I destroy Goguryeo, the next step is to wipe out the Japanese islands. These Goguryeo people just serve as slave labor.
They repaired ships and roads for me, and contributed their lives to the conquest of Japanese islands."
Yan Liang was right in saying that Goguryeo, like other Huru, will disappear from the map in the future and completely disappear in the long river of history.
"I understand." Lu Meng smiled slightly, as if he was relieved.
Yan Liang stood up, walked down the steps, came to the map, raised his hand and pointed: "Okay, after talking about Goguryeo, it's time to discuss the strategy of entering the army."
…
Hundreds of miles away, Marudo City.
In the main hall of the royal capital, Liu Bei was dressed in a dragon robe, sitting high on the seat that once belonged to the King of Goguryeo.
But Goguryeo's King Gao Yanyou was sitting at the bottom with a dejected look on his face.
Liu Bei looked at Gao Yanyou's virtuous attitude and became angry. He secretly clenched his fists and even had the urge to kill Gao Yanyou.
"Your good son is so stupid that he went to the palace. He listened to Yan Thief's coaxing and dared to claim the king without permission. If it hadn't been for him, how would there have been civil strife in Goguryeo?" Liu Bei asked angrily.
Gao Yanyou laughed bitterly and mocked himself: "There is a saying in the Central Plains, like father, like son. I believed in you, Lord of Han, and ended up like this. I went to the palace to listen to the Emperor of Chu. Is it any wonder?
Woolen cloth."
Gao Yanyou's words were clearly a satire on Liu Bei's betrayal and repaying kindness with hatred.
After Liu Bei heard this, he couldn't help but became furious. He pointed at him and cursed: "You useless trash, you dare to ridicule me. If you hadn't betrayed your righteousness first and surrendered to Yan Liang, you wanted to harm me.
How could you strike first, you idiot? I think you want to die!" (To be continued...)
