Datang Nongwang

Chapter 941
"Xiao Langjun, according to statistics, we got at least 2000 million guan of money from Goguryeo this time, and at least 300 million guan of jewelry. So much money and jewelry, what do you plan to do with it, Xiao Lang? Where is the holy?" , Xingba came to Li Chongyuan's cabin, holding a booklet in his hand.

Li Chongyuan took it and turned it over.

On the booklet, it recorded the money that Li Chongyuan had seized recently, as well as the money that had been spent.

As Li Chongyuan's guard, logically it is not his turn to do these things.

But there was no one around Li Chongyuan.

In addition to his practice of eight, it is Le Dao.

Ke Ledao led a large number of doctors, how could he have time to help Li Chongyuan do these things.

Moreover.

Since Dahang City, the number of injured people has increased, Le Dao is so busy that he does not touch the ground, even Li Chongyuan rarely sees him.

As for Tang Li and the others, they are the real guards.

Sometimes, Tang Li would also follow Li Chongyuan's instructions and temporarily return to the general's position to lead the troops in battle.

So did Liu Xiang.

But most of the time, the two alternate.

For this reason, regarding these accounts, it can only be done by Xingba.

Since Li Chongyuan was appointed by Li Shimin as the general manager of the Canghai Road, the money spent has been spent like running water.

Whether it's conscription or something else.

Every time Li Chongyuan saw it, his heart ached.

And now.

This brochure of Xingba statistics made Li Chongyuan happy after seeing it.

The 2000 million guan gold and silver cash was only obtained by Li Chongyuan alone.

There are also jewels worth 300 million guan, which makes Li Chongyuan even more happy.

With this money, Li Chongyuan didn't have to worry about the compensation money for the soldiers who died in battle, let alone the compensation money for the injured soldiers.

It is feasible to mention the Holy One on August [-], and Li Chongyuan immediately thought about it in his heart.

The capital city of Goguryeo was captured, the royal family of Goguryeo was robbed, and even the officials of the capital city of Goguryeo were robbed.

Li Chongyuan was worried in his heart, whether Li Shimin would criticize him harshly at that time.

But things had already happened, Li Chongyuan could only think of countermeasures in his mind.

Money must be paid as a tribute.

As for how much, Li Chongyuan was hesitant.

Returning the booklet to Xingba, he sighed and said, "Your Majesty, let's talk about it at that time. We have made so many, there must be a lot on the side of the pirate army, right?"

"A lot, a lot. According to my rough questioning, the pirate army got at least ten million guan. However, I heard from Aunt Huan privately that Aunt Huan seemed to want them to hand over some of them, saying that it was for those Some resettlement allowances for the dead and wounded soldiers. But I didn’t dare to ask, and it’s hard to ask.” Xing Ba replied.

Li Chongyuan laughed out loud when he heard it.

Chen Huan had this idea, probably because he didn't want to pay for himself, but for the pirates.

If Chen Huan could really get money from the pirate army, then he would have saved millions of pennies.

Li Chongyuan asked again: "What about the soldiers of the left and right armies, as well as the soldiers of the central army? How much did they get?"

"A lot. According to my estimate, although there are not tens of millions of guan, there should still be two or three million guan. This is only for Goguryeo. If Baekje is broken in the future, the money will have to be multiplied. Xiao Lang Jun, don't you ever think about letting them hand it in?" Xing Ba replied.

Li Chongyuan shook his head, "These money came from their lives, how can I take their lives."

"It's just you, Mr. Xiaolang. If you were any big manager, I'm afraid they will hand over most of the money." Xingba knew that Li Chongyuan was kind to the people below.

Even in this battle, he knew that Li Chongyuan didn't want the soldiers below to suffer.

Li Chongyuan smiled, "Is there any news from the north?"

"The news came seven days ago. The Holy Majesty and the others still haven't taken Anshi City, and they are still trapped under Anshi City. It is now the middle of August, and according to my estimation, they won't be able to take it again within half a month." Anshi City, the Holy Spirit may return to the imperial court. After all, the early cold in the Liaodong area, if it continues like this, don’t say that Anshi City cannot be captured, and all the soldiers will be frozen and injured.” Xing Ba seemed to understand the current situation very well. situation.

Li Chongyuan nodded at Xingba's words, "Yes, Liaodong is cold early, if Anshi City can't be broken in this half month, the army will definitely be unstable."

"What do you think, Mr. Xiaolang?" Xing Ba asked.

Li Chongyuan took a deep breath, "First capture the capital of Baekje first."

"Where is Silla?" Xing Ba asked again.

Li Chongyuan pondered for a moment, "I have arranged for Liu Wu to go to Silla. I believe that before we arrived in Sibi, Liu Wu should have met with Queen Seondeok of Silla."

"When will the war start? Mr. Xiaolang, you sent Liu Wu to Silla, do you want both sides to attack Baekje at the same time?" Xingba asked again.

Li Chongyuan smiled and said: "There are only two days until August [-]th. Tomorrow, we will stop at sea. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will officially launch an attack on Baekje at midnight on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. And Liu Wu went to Silla, the time I set for him is also this time."

Xingba stopped asking questions.

With Li Chongyuan's arrangement, Xingba doesn't need to remind Li Chongyuan.

In these years, Xingba followed Li Chongyuan and witnessed Li Chongyuan's growth.

It also witnessed that Li Chongyuan, a person who is not good at war, has learned to fight, is more courageous and resourceful, and cherishes his generals.

As Li Chongyuan said.

On August [-]th, Li Chongyuan ordered all ships to stop on the sea a hundred miles away from Baekje.

All the boats were tied together by ropes.

The Type C paddle steamer is in the middle, the Type B paddle steamer is outside, and then the Type A and Super A paddle steamers.

The sea is not very stormy.

But for the sake of safety and to prevent the Type C paddle steamer from being blown away by the sudden wind and waves, Li Chongyuan ordered all the ships to be tied together.

One is because the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming.

The second reason is that Li Chongyuan wanted all the soldiers to gather together so that he, the general manager, could give a good lecture.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming.

All the soldiers on board sang some little tunes as if they were missing home.

There are vegetables and meat, food and food, this Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone is happy.

But at the same time, there are also some soldiers who are remembering the comrades who died in battle.

Although there are no moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival at sea, all soldiers cherish this very special Mid-Autumn Festival.

By night.

That was even more lively.

There are no weapons, no wars, and no unpleasant smell of corpses.

So people let down their vigilance and celebrated this rare Mid-Autumn Festival in their own way.

Xu time.

Signal flares sounded in the sky.

When the signal is played together, everyone knows that the excitement of the Mid-Autumn Festival night is over, and everyone returns to each warehouse and everyone.

The ropes were untied and the boat moved.

child time.

Li Chongyuan and the others are less than sixty miles away from Sibi City.

Although it is still above the sea, as long as Li Chongyuan gives an order, all the ships will enter the Jinjiang River.

but.

Li Chongyuan and the others stopped at the mouth of the Jinjiang River, as if they were watching or waiting for something.

Soon.

At the estuary of the Jinjiang River, a C-type paddle steamer sailed, and immediately, a flame appeared.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Li Chongyuan smiled when he saw the torches on the C-type paddle steamer at the mouth of the Jinjiang River.

"Let's go! Send an order to line up all the ships. After entering the river and reaching Sibi, you don't need to report and go to war on your own." Li Chongyuan ordered loudly.

Following Li Chongyuan's order.

The ships of the left and right forward armies immediately sailed out of the fleet and headed for Jinjiang.

Shortly after.

The ships of the left and right armies also began to sail into Jinjiang.

Finally, Li Chongyuan's fleet moved forward slowly.

Just now.

The C-type paddle steamer was sent to investigate the situation of the Qing army.

When the torch shines, shake it a few times, which means that everything is safe and ready to attack.

If it is a cross, it means that Sibi City cannot be attacked.

child time.

The left and right forward armies have reached the river area under the city of Sibi.

When the left and right forwards arrived, according to Li Chongyuan's order, they began to fill the iron thunders, and then ignited and projected them.

The gates of the city were originally closed, but in Sibi City, which was not under curfew, Baekje people were immersed in celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival. No one knew that at this time, the Tang army would attack their capital city of Baekje.

Baekje is like Datang.

What I learned was the culture of the Tang Dynasty, and I also celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival of the Tang Dynasty.

Even the military is basically similar.

When something as big as a stone floated over the sky of Sibi City, everyone looked at the iron thunder that fell from the sky and made a hissing sound, not knowing why.

Hundreds of iron thunders fell into Sibi city.

Many people were killed on the spot, and some were injured.

Screams followed.

There are also some people who don't know why, after looking at the sky, they walk towards the sparking iron thunder.

After ten breaths.

'Boom~~' sounded.

moment.

Sibi, the capital of Baekje, has become a hell on earth.

The night passed.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Li Chongyuan looked at the flattened Sibi City, very satisfied.

Satisfied, Li Chongyuan also looked forward to the return of Baekje's soldiers and horses.

Two days later.

As Li Chongyuan expected.

Baekje's soldiers and horses really came back.

The 30 troops, like ants, began to rush towards their capital from the direction of Silla.

Li Chongyuan ordered to temporarily withdraw from Jin Jiang.

Another two days later.

Li Chongyuan returned to Sibi City again.

Returning this time, the inside and outside of Sibi City was like hell on earth again.

The first day of September.

Lee Chong-won meets King Dee-man, Queen of Good Virtue of Silla.

The last time I saw Queen Seondeok of Silla was a few years ago.

But now, after seeing each other again, Queen Kinderman of Good Virtue was very humble, and even performed the courtesy of a monarch and minister to Li Chongyuan.

I don't know if it was because Kinderman saw that Li Chongyuan's ship was too big, or because Li Chongyuan was the king of the Tang Dynasty, or because he was afraid.

Kinderman is too humble for Lee Chong Won.

Li Chongyuan didn't even know whether to accept or not to accept even the ceremony of monarch and minister.

"Kindeman, most of Baekje's soldiers and horses have been flattened. Next, you, Silla, will eliminate some of Baekje's remnants." Li Chongyuan looked at Kinderman sitting opposite him, as if Confessing to his subordinates seems to be exhorting.

Kinderman nodded fiercely, "Jindeman of Xiaguo respects the order of King Li Jun of Shangguo."

Li Chongyuan nodded.

After sending Kinderman off the ship.

Li Chongyuan's army left Sibi.

Baekje is in ruins, and Li Chongyuan's stay is of no use. It's better to leave it to Kinderman to take care of it.

Moreover.

There are still a lot of remnants in Baekje that need her to fight with Kinderman, and Li Chongyuan really doesn't want to waste time in Baekje.

Furthermore.

News from the north.

Li Shimin was already very angry because of An Shicheng.

And, it's already September.

In another half a month, the weather will be cold.

Li Shimin couldn't attack Anshi City for a long time, Li Chongyuan was worried that if Li Shimin was given another half month, Li Shimin might not be able to attack Anshi City, and Li Shimin would definitely return to the court.

And this time I attacked Baekje, I didn't receive Li Shimin's order, and I didn't receive Li Shimin's will.

Li Chongyuan was really worried that Li Shimin would criticize him severely because of his unauthorized actions, and even dismiss him from his position.

to this end.

As soon as Li Chongyuan saw the new king Kinderman, he wished he could immediately hand over the affairs of Baekje to her so that he could go north to reinforce Li Shimin.

Although my own ship is fast.

But Li Chongyuan knew that if he wanted to reinforce Li Shimin and capture Anshi City, he must enter Taizi River from Jian'an City, and then turn to Haicheng River.

As for Taizi River, Li Chongyuan's boat can only enter, but Haicheng River, Super A paddle steamer, and A type paddle steamer cannot enter.

to this end.

On the sea going north, Li Chongyuan ordered that all mobile throwers and spare throwers be installed on Type B paddle steamers and Type C paddle steamers.

Two thousand miles away.

It took Li Chongyuan five days.

It's not that the speed of the ship is not good, but that it took a lot of time to modify the throwing device.

When Li Chongyuan's fleet arrived at the mouth of Taizi River, Li Chongyuan boarded the B-type paddle steamer and sent someone to report to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin who is far away in Anshi City.

Seeing that Li Chongyuan sent Liu Xiang over, he was very upset, "Where is Li Chongyuan! Where is he?"

"Returning to the Holy Lord, King Li Jun has arrived in the area of ​​Jian'an City at this time, and will arrive soon." Liu Xiang reported to Li Shimin with some apprehension.

Eldest Sun Wuji at the side heard that Li Chongyuan had only appeared at this time, and he scolded loudly: "Humph! He, Li Chongyuan, is the chief manager of Canghai Road, why doesn't he follow the orders of the Holy Majesty? There has been no news of him in the past few months. He Li Chongyuan resisted the orders Disrespectful and cowardly, according to the marching system, beheaded!"

Liu Xiang looked at Changsun Wuji, feeling even more worried.

Li Shimin snorted coldly, "Go, tell him Li Chongyuan, if he doesn't come before me by evening today, I will definitely kill him!"

Liu Xiang had no choice but to order and inform Li Chongyuan.

At this time, Li Shimin, like a cow whose tail was burnt, was very hot.

After attacking Anshi city for a long time, he can't be messed with at this moment.

After meeting Liu Xiang in Taizihe, Li Chongyuan smiled wryly when he got Liu Xiang's reply.

"Hey! It seems that the Holy Majesty really can't spare me. I don't know if the Holy Majesty will really cut down my sacrificial flag in battle." Li Chongyuan was a little worried.

Liu Xiang reminded: "Young Lord, the Holy Majesty was not so angry at first, but it was the words of the eldest grandson Wuji that made the Holy Majesty furious. Young Lord, when the time comes, you have to be careful of the eldest grandson Wuji."
