I, the patron saint of the frontier of the Tang Dynasty, was forced to rebel

Chapter 126
The old master shook his head again and again, his eyes were full of anxiety.

"Instead of submitting to others temporarily, it's better to take a breather and try to rise later!"

Gao Jianwu raised his head, tears streaming down his face.

A generation of kings, who have only been in office for half a year, have encountered such a situation.

How sad!

"Go, I have wronged you, the national teacher!"

The national teacher led a group of civil servants, not even sitting in a sedan chair, but riding a fast horse bumping all the way.

I am old and old, how can I stand such a situation.

Arriving at Liaocheng Prefecture's Dudu's Mansion, I found that the ground was full of barbarians, and the breath of death was everywhere.

"The sky has no eyes! Let North Korea suffer such catastrophe!"

The old national teacher burst into tears, and couldn't bear to see the corpses everywhere.

"Go, inform Yue Fei, just say that I am North Korea, and I am willing to talk about peace!"

Naturally, the civil servants couldn't bear it, but they were more afraid of death than the monarch in their hearts.

Lingzhou Palace.

Qin Mu was busy dealing with post-war rewards and distribution of military pay, so enthusiasm in the army was naturally high.

However, thousands of casualties and soldiers continued to solve follow-up problems, and there were supplementary soldiers.

In this regard, he doesn't need to worry about it, and Yue Fei will handle it by himself, give a plan to report, and then issue relevant subsidies.

And North Korea sent a national teacher to come and inform that it was going to talk about peace.

It was a bit beyond his expectation, and it should last for a few more days.

Zhuge Liang stood on the side, staring at the map.

Qin Mu stepped forward, "Don't look at it, it must be because of overseas island disputes that North Korea does not have enough military power to maintain two-sided defense, and the peace talks are just taking advantage of the opportunity to linger."

"King Xian, why didn't you take down the whole of Pyongyang in one fell swoop?"

"Although the culture of North Korea is similar to that of the Tang Dynasty, it has more of its own cultural traditions. The most troublesome thing is the local rich and aristocratic families. We need to stabilize the people in the area after we win the area. We don't have so much time."

Zhuge Liangliang nodded, expressing his understanding.

"Then what should we do with the peace talks? Do you want some compensation or cede the land?"

"No, that's too passive!"

Qin Mu smiled coldly, "How many artillery pieces do we have on the front line now?"

"There are 130 on the Tubo side, and more than [-] on the North Korean side, but they are all small-caliber, and the main combat power comes from the oppression of the Beisha city navy."

"Very good, let's leave the negotiation on the table first, let the army troops disperse the [-] cannons, and go say hello to Gaodong's Korean national division!"

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

Zhuge Liang smiled knowingly, this trick has been used before.

Only with enough pressure can we strive for greater benefits.

Within an hour, the news reached Yue Fei's ears.

He immediately ordered to disperse the eighty cannons, form a team of ten, surround Shenyang, and attack the Dudu's Mansion of Gewu Prefecture and the Dudu Mansion of Liaocheng Prefecture.

The already dilapidated city wall was completely destroyed.

However, the artillery fire stopped there and did not continue.

The infantry began to advance, and without crossing the battle line, they shot and killed the guards from a distance.

Governor's Mansion of Liaocheng Prefecture.

After the national teacher knew this situation, he could only sigh.

He had already seen the other party's intentions, Yue Fei's army was powerful, and he didn't care if the peace talks could be delayed.

After failing to get approval for several days in a row, a negotiation agreement was proposed.

The national teacher couldn't take it anymore, so he made arrangements for his subordinates and returned to the capital alone to meet the king.

In the hall, there was silence.

After losing the battle, he took the initiative to negotiate peace, but was humiliated by the other party!

Gao Jianwu was so angry that he looked at Marshal Zhang Yonghui with a gloomy expression.

"Marshal Zhang, back then you advocated attacking Pingzhou proactively. Did you expect the current situation?"

"Your Majesty, I expected it."

Zhang Yonghui was unexpectedly calm: "Your Majesty, after this battle and the information found by some spies, I have analyzed several reasons for the defeat. First, Qin Mu's weapons have been updated for the second time and are stronger than before. "

"shit!"

Snapped!
Gao Jianwu slammed the table suddenly and stood up, furious.

"You still need to talk about this kind of thing? Those cannonballs almost fell on the top of my head. All kinds of cannonballs and bullets are placed in the Ministry of Industry. Can't they explain the opponent's strength?"

Zhang Yonghui shook his head, "Secondly, Qin Mu issued the slogan of rejuvenating the country through industry, and I believe that we must also make changes to develop industry, and at the same time, the research on gunpowder must be accelerated.

Third, the court of the Tang Dynasty was under siege, and the Changsun Wuji family independently controlled Jiannan Road and cut off the south of the Tang Dynasty, which is a good thing for us.

Fourth, as the prince, Li Ke obviously intends to initiate civil strife and control the area. From these points alone, our failure is not a bad thing. It will prevent Tang from increasing troops on Henan Province, and the internal struggle will intensify. At least When the Tang Kingdom is completely destroyed, we can even control Dengzhou and cut off Qin Mu's coastal defense! "

"Oh? According to you, is it a good thing to fail?"

"Return to Your Majesty, you can think so."

His Majesty the Emperor was already in confusion, with a sneer on his face, mocking and cold eyes in his eyes.

"Marshal be careful."

The national teacher on the side reminded me carefully.

Zhang Yonghui didn't care at all, "Your Majesty, I have found a way to make powerful firearms, and the cost is even lower than what Qin Mu made."

Hearing this, Gao Jianwu tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart and waved his hand.

"Come here, prepare materials for Marshal, let him make one on the spot, let me have a look! Marshal, what is the name of this weapon?"

"Fire gun!"

"Okay, just try it out and start making it right away. Since Yue Fei dares to cross the line of defense, then call me back!"

"Yes!"

But Qin Mu didn't know at all that he deliberately delayed the negotiations, and the result was not oppression, but forcing North Korea to start imitating his side's ability to build arms production.

The frontier defense of Liaocheng Prefecture Dudu's Mansion is very lively.

The artillery stopped attacking, and the infantry rode fast horses and held special guns. This kind of gun was a sniper rifle, but it was very crude.

However, compared with the firearms equipped in large quantities, the level of advancement is at least two generations.

Moreover, it is still firing continuously, and the appearance of the magazine allows the sniper rifle to hold ten bullets at a time, and there is no need to continuously pull the bolt.

This kind of development is very strange. According to expectations, the rifle should be fired first, and then the sniper rifle should be fired.

But it turned around, and the sniper rifle became the most advanced.

The rifle is still the old-fashioned bolt action, although it can hold five bullets, but it has to be pulled before firing a shot, which seriously slows down the attack speed.

Dozens of fast horses, carrying shooters, swaggered around the frontier of Liaocheng Prefecture Dudufu.

Seduce, ambush, sneak attack, assassinate, do it all!

In the first 1 minute, they were still sniping in the south, and in the next 2 minutes, they ran to the east and fired guns.

The support troops of Liaocheng Prefecture's Governor's Mansion didn't even dare to risk their heads.

Five days passed.

More than a thousand soldiers were killed.
