Li Zhi Shaobao changed into another suit of armor. He put on the golden armor again, wore a golden helmet on his head, held a golden riding crop in his hand, and carried an absolutely redundant one around his waist for decoration. The horizontal knife.
He stepped down and rode a snow-white war horse without a single hair. Under the majestic and elegant pace of the war horse, he followed the horse's small steps on the horse's back, rising and falling rhythmically.
The war horse was very humane. After Li Hong stood up, he immediately stopped. For Li Hong, this war horse had a deep impression. Back then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had to do it without understanding the male and female horses. Pair the warhorse with his food stamps.
The whole palace was in a state of uproar. When the war horse saw Li Hong, he subconsciously stopped and even had the tendency to retreat and stay away from this man.
With the support of Yang Wu and Lian Tie, Li Zhi slowly got off the horse. Holding the horizontal knife at his waist in one hand and the golden riding whip in the other, he strode up to Jin Famin, who was still kneeling under the sun. , Fu Yufeng stood in front of him.
Behind him, in addition to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and several civil servants and generals of the Tang Dynasty, were the Jinwu guards with bright armor and fierce murderous intent, guarding Li Zhi in the middle. Such a formation, on the battlefield of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, made Li Zhi look even more... The mighty and majestic soldiers behind him caused considerable psychological shock to the kings of Silla and Baekje, as well as their ministers and others on the opposite side.
Jin Famin and Fu Yufeng, who had been informed a long time ago, were dressed in rags, with dirty faces, and their clothes smelled of sweat and blood, exuding a stench. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Gongjin again: "Your Majesty. Jin Famin and Fu Yufeng met His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."
His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty came to the battlefield in person. Both Jin Famin and Fu Yufeng began to tremble in their voices, and they were even more frightened in their hearts, especially under the shock of the murderous Jinwu Guards. The fate that follows is even more despairing.
"The Tang Dynasty has always been friendly with you, treating you as brothers, but instead of being grateful to the Tang Dynasty for its help, you actually want to besiege me while I'm here in Liujing City. What's the point of this! Jin Famin, your father visited the Tang Dynasty many times back then. Suibei, we have hereditary friendship with the Tang Dynasty. Why do you do this? Fu Yufeng, I have seen you before. Under your jurisdiction, the country is peaceful and the people are prosperous. Do you also want to do something wrong with me? "Li Zhi? He paced back and forth in front of the two people and looked at the two people kneeling on the ground and asked.
Lian Tie and Yang Wu behind him actually brought up a large chair at this time, with a thick tiger skin blanket spread on the chair. Then the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty stood ten steps away from Jin Famin and Fu Yufeng, and the tiger He sat down on the leather blanket and waited for the two to answer.
Li Hong watched Lian Tie and Yang Wu take good care of his father Long, secretly kicked them both, and said in a low voice: "This is a battlefield, do you think it's a court? You're still acting like this. Bring me the chair! I'm just asking you... Do you still have this chair? I'm tired too... "
"Where is the prince?" Although Li Zhi's helmet is golden, it is quite light, and like the armor on his body, it is not prepared for war, but is more of a decoration.
Therefore, although Li Zhi was wearing a helmet, it did not affect his hearing. When he heard that Li Hong started to scold Yang Wu and Lian Tie again without caring about outsiders, he hurriedly stopped him and called him. Who knew that if the prince continued to question him later, he would He would not kick Yang Wu and Lian Tie into the bloody pit not far away.
"My son is here. I wonder what your father's orders are?" Li Hong glared at Yang Wu and Lian Tie, then walked to Li Zhi's side and asked.
"You captured Jin Famin and Fu Yufeng, what are your plans?" Li Zhi looked relaxed and asked.
However, Li Hong knew that his armor was purely for decoration and was not as thick as real armor at all. This was why Father Long was able to wear such a shabby armor and go back and forth with ease.
"Father, I have just explained my serious relationship to them. Either they pay money to redeem the person, or I, the Tang Dynasty, wait for Qibi Heli and Li Jinxing to attack the royal city of Silla and Baekje as soon as the army arrives. In exchange for Just sit on their throne alone."
"Oh, what do you mean by this?" Li Zhi didn't react for a moment. Li Hong's words did not mean to punish these two people at all. Could it be that he, who always wanted to retaliate against others, wanted to spare these two people
"Simple, to put it bluntly, we will depose the thrones of these two people, and then our Tang Dynasty will enter the royal cities of Silla and Baekje. Whichever family gives more money will be allowed to sit on the throne of Silla or Baekje. . What it sounds like is that their thrones will be auctioned off and will be given to whoever pays the highest price." Li Hong explained nonchalantly as he stood beside Li Zhi.
The officials of the Tang Dynasty behind Li Zhi didn't know what Li Zhi thought after hearing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's opinion, but they felt a chill and felt shameless. A dignified prince could commit such a robbery. His behavior, this... wouldn't it be a joke if word spread about it!
However, since His Highness the Crown Prince has always kept his word in the army, controlling his words and acting arbitrarily, so looking at Li Hong who looked like a gangster at the moment, they had no choice but to lower their heads and say nothing, and continued to follow His Highness the Crown Prince with a sullen face. Shame on you.
What Jin Famin and Fu Yufeng heard was frightened to the core. As the saying goes, every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. If their thrones are not coveted by others in their respective countries and are rock-solid, they will not He took the risk to attack Datang.
The willingness to risk the country's subjugation and annihilation to attack the Tang Dynasty is nothing more than to transfer the pressure of domestic power struggle to the war, and then free up his own hands, while everyone's attention is on the war against the Tang Dynasty, Clean up the family rivals who covet his throne in the country.
Now that their weaknesses were suddenly pointed out by His Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he directly threatened them with this, they suddenly lost any possibility of apologizing and being forgiven.
According to their past experience with the Tang people, no matter how big a mistake they made, just like when the first emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, was in power, although they did not deal them such a devastating blow as they do today, the Tang people, who had strong troops at that time, finally At least I can tolerate being a little petty.
For example, after he raised his hands and surrendered, and was willing to surrender, the Tang people set up a nominal governor's office in his own country, and he was granted the title of a nominal governor in the Tang Dynasty.
But in fact, he continued to enjoy everything in his own country, and could continue to be the king and hegemony. Moreover, he had the great backer of the Tang Dynasty to contain other aristocratic families in the country, which helped him stabilize his throne.
The only loss he suffered was that he became someone else's minister in name only. It was nothing more than having a nominal minister title.
And not only that, the title of a Tang Dynasty official is not only a shackles, but also a lot of real benefits for oneself after being titled by the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that this is the best example of a blessing in disguise. .
But now these experiences are of no use. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty did not escort them back to Liujing as soon as possible. Instead, he blamed himself on the battlefield with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, pungent smell, and stench. It seemed that all this Everything has changed, and it is no longer the same external style that Datang used to have.
Now the Prince of the Tang Dynasty has stated his intention twice in a row. Whether it is Jin Famin or Fu Yufeng, if they don't know that they are in disaster, they really should die.
Li Zhi frowned slightly, but he had already said it to death, and he assured Li Hong last night that everything was entirely up to him.
Nowadays, Li Hong treats the defeated generals in such a way that is disgraceful to the Great Tang Dynasty, which makes the Tang Dynasty too stingy and unable to show the majesty and style of the Great Tang Dynasty.
Li Hong looked into the golden helmet. While Jin Famin and Fu Yufeng kowtowed to beg for mercy, Father Long looked hesitant and hurriedly whispered in Li Zhi's ear: "Father, you are the great master who wants to go to the country." Or do you want peace and stability on the border? If you designate their country as a governor's palace, what I get from the Tang Dynasty is only nominal recognition, and they won't take it seriously. They will wait for the day when the scars are healed and the pain is forgotten. They will still raise their spears to attack the Tang Dynasty! They will not remember how good the Tang Dynasty was to them. They will only remember how many times the Tang Dynasty conquered them and how many people they killed! A nation that is narrow-minded, vengeful, shameless, treacherous, cunning, despicable, and stingy. It is in the best interests of our Datang to let them fend for themselves and curb their development. No matter who becomes king, as long as they remain in this situation. The standard of living is what best suits the interests of Datang, so that our borders can be protected from their harassment. "
"I'm afraid they won't obey."
"It doesn't matter. Just change someone to become the king. If you don't obey, continue to change. Take Baekje as an example. If it doesn't work, you will secretly fund other families and divide Baekje into five countries to make them more chaotic."
"What do you mean by this?" Li Zhi asked, frowning again.
"Father, Baekje is under the control of other aristocratic families. In addition to their royal city Juba Fortress, there are also five cities represented by other aristocratic families: Gusha City, Guma City, Ungjin City, Daoxian City, and Zhixia City. As long as the After careful training by the Lijingmen, they can break into Baekje to sow discord, divide and disintegrate, so that they can start fighting among themselves. In this way, they will not even think about being able to recruit so many troops to attack me like they did today. The Tang Dynasty is still too busy fighting to win. As the saying goes, go out and attack..."
When Li Zhi heard the word "Shang Bing Conquer Strategy", he couldn't help but laugh out loud. You, Li Hong, can say whatever you want, but such a shameless strategy like yours has to be forced to be called "Shang Bing Conquer Strategy" to put gold in your face. You are really thick-skinned.
Seeing Li Hong looking seriously, persistently and blankly at himself who was laughing out loud, Li Zhi waved his hand in embarrassment: "It's okay, just keep talking."
"I'm angry and won't say anything anymore."
