Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3017
Everyone has their own unique principles of life and different political wisdom.

Cheng Yaojin has enough qualifications, meritorious service, and status to be a proper elder in the court. He does not have his own political ambitions like Fang Jun, Ma Zhou, and Li Daozong. He only needs to stabilize his family and continue the prosperity of the family Wealth is fine.

Therefore, he is unwilling to stand in the battle for the reserve, and just wants to serve His Majesty wholeheartedly, and that is enough.

It will not be too late to swear allegiance to the new emperor when the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, why bother to take the huge risk in the fight for the crown? Although "Conglong Zhigong" seems to have rich benefits and gratifying returns, it also has a lot of risks to bear. Once you bet on the wrong treasure, you will lose a lot.

He was closer to the prince before, because most of the people around him who were involved in the relationship were close to the prince, the Duke of England, the Duke of Song, the king of Jiangxia County, Fang Jun, and even Fang Xuanling... But this does not mean that he is completely on the side of the prince.

Standing in a team is not just talk, it has to be shown.

However, once Wang Wendu is killed now, King Jin's already weak strength in the army will be reduced by one point. Will he think that he has to kill Wang Wendu just because he violated the military law?
What's more, Wang Wendu is still the cousin of the Crown Princess...

However, if they are not killed, the morale of the army will not be calmed down, which will not only lead to low morale, but may even trigger a chain reaction at a certain moment, causing extremely serious consequences.

If the commander-in-chief of an army fails to abide by the military law and treat everyone equally, the hearts of the entire team will be dissipated.

After fighting all his life, how could Cheng Yaojin not understand this?Especially now that the lone army is deeply interspersed in the Goguryeo territory. Once the hearts of the army are scattered, each of them has hidden thoughts and cannot give up their lives. It is very likely that they will collapse when facing a strong enemy.

Balancing left and right in my heart, it was really difficult to decide, so I couldn't help but give Xue Wanche a hard look.

This mallet really gave me a big problem...

Wang Wendu, who was lying behind Cheng Yaojin, wailed in pain on the ground, his face was covered with snot and tears, one arm was hanging, the other hand was covering his leg, blood was gurgling from between his fingers, he was terrified He shouted: "Marshal, please spare me!"

Cheng Yaojin turned his head and scolded viciously: "Shut up! You are a wolf!"

Looking at the Sima in the army, he asked, "What should this thief do?"

The Sima in the army said: "Violating military orders, framing Paoze, sitting idly by and doing nothing...decision!"

Each of these crimes is a serious crime, no matter how merciful and merciless the coach is, it is impossible for Wang Wendu to survive.

Not only is Wang Wendu a capital offence, but he also has to recover his yin and yang qualifications. Brothers and sisters will also be punished accordingly if they are in the officialdom.

Of course, the Taiyuan Wang family tree has deep roots, so it is difficult to go deep into it, and it is very likely that the children of the family will not be involved...

Wang Wendu's soul was terrified, and hissed: "Commander! The handling of this matter is unfair, and I will not accept it! I also ask the commander to report to His Majesty, and ask His Majesty to send someone to investigate this matter thoroughly. In the end, I will be completely wronged!"

He couldn't understand why Cheng Yaojin was so ruthless to kill himself all of a sudden, did he really believe that the crown prince would be able to secure a stable position and ascend the throne smoothly in the future?Otherwise, if you kill him today, you will definitely hate His Royal Highness King Jin. Once King Jin ascends the throne in the future, it's hard not to be prejudiced against the Cheng family...

Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly, and said loudly: "The facts are all there, so why is there any injustice? Come, someone, drag this thief out of the gate, and show his head to the public! Hang his head on the flagpole for three days, so that the whole army will be killed." See the fate of these villains, and make an example to others!",

"promise!"

Several guards stepped forward to set up Wang Wendu who was on the ground, and dragged him outside.

Wang Wendu looked like he was going crazy, struggling with all his might, and shouted: "Commander, please spare me! If the commander kills me, won't His Royal Highness King Jin bear grudges in his heart? If King Jin ascends the throne in the future, the future of the commander will be bleak! Commander, I know I was wrong, please forgive me this time..."

As the voice faded away, Cheng Yaojin remained indifferent.

He really looked down on the children of this kind of aristocratic family, he only had the interests of the family in his eyes, why did he ever put the country, France and military discipline in his eyes?He only thought that he didn't dare to kill him, but he completely forgot that he was on the march and military discipline was paramount. Even if the prince made a mistake, he, as the commander, could still kill him!
Ignoring this mortal man, Cheng Yaojin turned his head against the military clerk: "Immediately draft a military report, and this commander will report the details of what happened here to His Majesty. Wang Wendu's crimes must be accompanied by an investigation statement. General Xue is still under heavy siege and still cuts down ten times as many enemies, I ask His Majesty for credit!"

"promise!"

Cheng Yaojin looked around at the generals in the tent, his face was gloomy, his eyes were like copper bells, he gritted his teeth and reprimanded: "This commander and you are not only robes, but also brothers and sisters! On the battlefield, we will live and die together, and we will never lose each other. ! If anyone has dirty minds, only cares about self-interest, and disregards righteousness, then don’t blame me for not being sympathetic, and Wang Wendu will end up!"

The captains in the tent stood upright and said solemnly: "No!"

Who doesn't know the background of Wang Wendu?The children of such an aristocratic family and the confidants of the King of Jin were all killed if they said they would kill, who would still be lucky?
The army is a ruthless place, the military law is the first, and it cannot be overstepped.

Cheng Yaojin looked at Xue Wanche again, nodded and said: "Wang Wendu violated the military order in this battle, which caused your troops to fall into the enemy's line and was in a desperate situation. However, under such circumstances, they were still able to fight the enemy bravely, leading the rest of the troops to kill a bloody road, and Zhenwu The military power of the Tang Dynasty, defeating the enemy's attempt, should be the first to attack! I also hope that the general will persevere and fight hard to kill the enemy, and he has already destroyed Goguryeo, and his achievements will overwhelm the world!"

Xue Wanche was a rough man at first, seeing Cheng Yaojin under pressure to severely punish Wang Wendu, he felt admiration in his heart, and after hearing what he said, his whole body was covered in chicken blood, he glared angrily, and said loudly: "Don't worry, Commander. If you don't have enough strength to go on an envoy, you will obey the general's orders, advance and never retreat, and the only thing you can do is die!"

Cheng Yaojin praised: "Good man! Go back and take a rest. His Majesty will soon capture Jian'an City. Then he will send his troops to the east and join our troops to attack Anshi City. As long as Anshi City falls, the entire Liaodong There is no longer any irresistible existence of the Great Tang Iron Cavalry, Pyongyang City is far away, and the victory is only at the fingertips! All of you should prepare your troops and wait for the battle to achieve immortal achievements!"

All the generals responded loudly: "Big victory! Big victory! Big victory!"

*****
After the main force of the Tang army captured the Far East City, they rested on the spot, and then quickly went south to Jian'an City.

Jian'an City guards the main traffic road leading to the southern Liaoning Peninsula. It is built on the mountain and has a large scale. There are 5 defenders stationed there.The whole mountain city was built by quarrying stone materials on the spot. The local hard bluestone is very characteristic, which makes the mountain city look very beautiful.

If you can conquer Jian'an City, you can go south along the plains near the sea all the way to Beisha City at the tip of the peninsula, go southeast to Boba City by the Yalu River, and go east to Anshi City, an important town in Liaodong. In fact, it is the main road of transportation in Liaodong, the throat of land roads, and it has been the thoroughfare of wealth and goods in Liaodong since the Han Dynasty.

Goguryeo naturally deployed heavy troops here, trying to resist the Tang army going all the way south.

The Tang army rushed all the way to the north bank of the Daqing River, set up a camp, and rested on the spot. At the same time, they sent scouts to spy on the horses to spy on the enemy's actual situation.

The mighty Daqing River flows into the sea and becomes a natural barrier. Jian'an City is built on the mountainside away from the river bank.

His Majesty Li Er sat in the tent and checked the surrounding map with the generals. The detailed battle plan needs to be drawn up after the scouts scout out the real situation of the Goguryeo army.

After discussing for a while, everyone saw His Majesty Li Er yawning and looking at each other, and they wanted to step back so that His Majesty could rest.

Coincidentally, a lieutenant colonel came in, clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, Lu Guogong has a battle report."

When everyone heard the words, they stopped together.

Lu Guogong was ordered to go to Anshi City to cut off the support of Goguryeo, and prepare for the main force to join forces after capturing Jian'an City. At this time, the battle report was sent, presumably because the battle situation has developed to a certain extent.

His Majesty Li Er nodded slightly, and Zhu Suiliang behind him stepped forward to take the battle report, turned around and placed it on the desk in front of His Majesty Li Er, and then carefully checked the wax seal to confirm that it was correct, then took out a knife and cut the envelope Open it, take out the letterhead, and hand it to His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er stretched out his hand to take it, and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, his square face was as black as the bottom of a pot. With a "bang", he slapped the letter paper on the book case fiercely, and scolded: "It's just crazy and daring!" Do these traitors treat military law as nothing? Death is not a pity!"

Everyone was startled, Changsun Wuji hurriedly asked: "Why is Your Majesty angry? But something happened to Lu Guogong?"
