Great Tang Broom Star

The emperor's car drove to Bingzhou.

Bingzhou officials went out to welcome the emperor and the empress.

Wu Mei sat in the car, opened the curtain and looked at the situation in the city.

"The folk customs here are tough, and it has always been a place where elite soldiers are produced." Wu Mei put down the curtain of the car.

There was Zhou Shanxiang in the car, she said with a smile: "This is the hometown of the queen!"

Wu Mei shook her head, "The Wu family was born here, but I have no impression of Bingzhou."

Zhou Shanxiang said in a low voice: "Queen, Your Majesty has come to Bingzhou specially, this is to let the queen return to her hometown."

Wu Mei was silent.

After arriving at the palace, the emperor went in to rest, and the crowd did not disperse, but waited outside.

A group of women came, shouting.

"The empress is from Wenshui, and Emperor Gaozu also raised troops in Jinyang, so it can be seen that this is the land of Longxing in the Tang Dynasty!"

"Everyone, may I ask to see the queen?"

A group of women were shouting.

In the palace, Li Zhi and Wu Mei had dinner together after bathing.

After the meal, Wang Zhongliang led people to serve tea.

Li Zhi said with a smile: "When you come to Bingzhou today, you can also get together with your old relatives. I promise you, you can do whatever you can to be kind."

Wu Mei's expression was a little dazed: "The concubine was not born here, but Aye mentioned Bingzhou Wenshui many times back then. It was also here that Aye never forgot before he left. I also want to take a look at the hometown that Aye never forgets."

Li Zhi stood up, "When Emperor Gaozu raised troops in Jinyang, he got the help of many people. There are many tombs of Conglong officials here. In a few days, I will entertain some people and reward some people. This trip is a kindness, and it can be regarded as Have fun with the people."

Wu Mei suddenly smiled and said: "Your Majesty, why not return home after being clothed?"

This woman even wants to argue with me about this, she really is the number one shrew among empresses throughout the ages... Li Zhi pointed at her, smiled, and went out immediately.

Wu Mei slowly returned to the back, got on the bed, and lay there quietly.

Afterwards, the emperor either entertained or inspected the whole day, and even went to the old ancestral hall where the Li family lived to offer sacrifices.

"Food with warrior Xun, Yin Kaishan, and Liu Zhenghui."

Li Zhi's order aroused a wave of upsurge in Bingzhou.

A discerning person said: "Yin Kaishan and Liu Zhenghui are incidental, and His Majesty prefers the warrior Xun."

"This is how one person attained the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascended to heaven, but why didn't those people from the Wu family hear the news?"

Wu's people here are all cousins, these days, many people come to see the queen every day outside the palace, but they can't see each other.

On this day, Wu Mei suddenly spread the word.

"The queen will entertain Wu's relatives and neighbors in the palace in the future."

As soon as the news came out, Bingzhou was boiling.

"Queen, many people want to date relatives!"

Shaopeng said disdainfully: "Those people don't even look at their family trees,

They dare to pretend to be relatives even if they can't get together. "

Wu Mei sat there quietly, raising her head occasionally, with thoughts in her eyes.

"My native place is here..."

There was a little more favor in the queen's eyes, and then she became indifferent.

On the day of the banquet, the palace was quite lively.

A group of men and women entered the palace respectfully, the men were arranged in front, and the women were brought behind.

"The queen is here, remember the etiquette."

The queen came to entertain them in person, which gave her a lot of face.

Everyone entered the hall and sat down, and then the queen came.

"Meet the Queen."

Everyone saluted, boldly raised their heads to look at Wu Mei, and couldn't help being surprised.

What a queen whose majesty makes people dare not look directly at her.

The momentum is so powerful.

Wu Mei sat down and said with a smile, "Everyone sit down."

After everyone sat down, Wu Mei toasted, so everyone drank a cup.

Wu Mei raised her chopsticks, and everyone began to eat.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Wu Mei put down her chopsticks, and everyone put down their chopsticks too.

In fact, the so-called banquet is really meaningless. With the emperor or queen sitting on it, can you still eat and drink wantonly? Can you still joke around?

Some people were nervous to the point of sitting on pins and needles.

Wu Mei smiled and said: "Bingzhou is my native place, my late father was also buried here, and you are relatives of the Wu family. I am very happy to see you today."

Laughing is a must at the moment, but not exaggerated.

Everyone showed a standard smile with joy.

"Governor Shi and Sima will be added one level each."

The queen began to show favor.

But she was able to upgrade the magistrate, this authority... Everyone exchanged a happy look.

Afterwards, relatives were rewarded, each of the direct relatives received a thousand pieces of cloth, besides the five clothes, there were also rewards for the neighbors, and everyone couldn't help but smile.

"Thank you Queen."

"Women over 80 years old in Bingzhou are awarded the title of Junjun."

This Junjun is just a title, but everyone is still grateful.

Wu Mei looked at the crowd, and suddenly reached out to touch the hairpin on her head.

A woman in her forties was Wu Mei's elder, she stood up and said, "The Queen's hairpin is actually made of wood? The Queen is so thrifty, I am very impressed."

Wu Mei smiled slightly.

When the women turned their heads, those women had expressions of encouragement and urging.

Such tricks were played out right under my nose... Wu Mei's face remained unchanged, but her mind was elsewhere.

I am afraid that the Liaodong Expedition has achieved preliminary results. What is the result? Is it safe? It would be even better if he can make meritorious deeds... If he makes great deeds this time, then I will definitely fight for him to be promoted...

But Ping An refused to be promoted, saying why he was still young... This eccentric man should be promoted. If he refuses again this time, there will be a hanging place outside the palace gate...

Seeing Wu Mei frowning, the woman was startled, but she still said bravely: "When I learned that the queen was conferred, I was overjoyed. The so-called kindness, who can compare with clan relatives? I am thinking of the queen. There are no relatives to help in Chang'an, although we are vulgar, we are willing to go through fire and water for the queen..."

She looked up at the queen, her heart full of expectations.

Do you want to kiss me, people from my hometown!

The so-called one person attains the Tao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, a good man needs three helpers, the queen, you don't want to promote your relatives, is it justified?

Wu Mei smiled slightly, "For Wenshui and Bingzhou, Shi En is naturally nothing to worry about, but I also have relatives in Chang'an."

The woman smiled and said, "The old lady and the eldest lady are both in Chang'an! But..."

What can these two women do?

And I heard that the eldest lady Wu Shun actually brought her daughter into the palace... Huh! It turned out that mother and daughter served the emperor together and competed with the queen for favor. This is a helper? This is the opponent!

Wu Mei said lightly: "I have my own reasons."

The woman suddenly thought of something, she hesitated for a moment, thinking that she is an elder...

"The queen is talking about that young man? We all heard that the queen recognized a brother in Chang'an, who is called Jia Ping'an, or Duke Wuyang!" The woman laughed: "But at least blood is more reliable."

If there are benefits, why give them to outsiders? Wouldn't it be nice for us?

Wu Mei touched the sandalwood hairpin on her head, narrowing her eyes slightly.

There was some noise outside, Wu Mei nodded, and Shao Peng went out to check.

Later he came back beaming, "Queen, Liaodong has achieved victory."

Wu Mei cheered up, "Tell me."

Holding the copy of the victory report in his hand, Shaopeng read aloud: "...it was night, our army built a pontoon bridge, and before the dawn of Buddha, our army forcibly crossed the Yalu River and was discovered by the enemy. Defeat the enemy army..."

The woman, including those women, were taken aback for a moment.

The corners of Wu Mei's mouth curled up slightly.

Where do these women know about brother's abilities, a bunch of gossips!

"Then our army divided into three groups to attack. Pang Tongshan, the former commander in chief of the middle route, ventured in and was besieged. He was in danger. After Wu Yanggong found out, he led the army to attack the enemy's camp at night. In the first battle, more than 30,000 people were beheaded. The 70,000 enemy army was defeated and defeated. With 20,000 prisoners, the famous Goryeo general Wen Shamen was beheaded by Li Jingye, the commander of the Wuyang government..."

The woman glanced at the queen, and seeing her expression was relieved, the kind of relief with a touch of elders made her heart tremble.

I'm going to say that outsiders are unreliable, and I'm going to say that Jia Ping'an has no skills...

Wu Mei raised her glass and drank it down.

She said with high spirits: "My younger brother is really getting more and more promising, come here."

Zhou Shanxiang stepped forward, "The queen orders."

Wu Mei ordered: "To celebrate the great victory, each person in the palace will be rewarded with ten pieces of silk."

"yes."

The banquet ended later, and the women left the palace slowly.

The men have already come out, and because there is no noble person to accompany them, they are quite relaxed. Most people's faces were flushed, and some even had blurred eyes, obviously drinking a little too much.

The wine in the palace is naturally delicious, but after drinking too much, it is easy to be ugly.

Everyone waited until their own wives, and after chatting a few gossips, they asked about the business.

"What did the Queen say?"

"We said that the queen has no relatives to help in Chang'an, but the queen said that there are."

"Is this the Duke Wuyang you're talking about? Why does the queen value such an inexplicable outsider?"

"The queen still called him brother in front of us."

Everyone's complexion turned black.

"Later came the news of victory, saying that it was a great victory in Liaodong. That Jia Pingan had won many battles and wiped out some famous Koryo generals. I'm afraid it was his first success."

In the palace, Li Zhi was laughing.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Laughter echoed, Wu Mei walked quickly.

"Meiniang, Wen Shamen is the number one general under Quangai Suwen's command. He led the elite troops of Goryeo to attack, but they were defeated in the First World War. Since then, there is no obstacle for the army to reach Pyongyang, Goryeo..."

Li Zhi looked cold, "Goryeo has been a disaster for many years, but now it will be destroyed in my hands!"

Wu Mei blessed her body, "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

The emperor was in a trance for a while, and wanted to ask for news about Liaodong from time to time. Seeing him in high spirits at this moment reminded Wu Mei of those bridegroom officials.

Groom officer!

She thought of Li Zhi's tenderness the night she returned to the palace, and her eyes couldn't help but softened a lot.

Li Zhi stretched out her hand, Wu Mei put her small hand in for him to hold, and the two moved forward slowly.

"Meiniang, do you know that I just want to go back to Chang'an to repay the victory to the late emperor at this moment."

"Goryeo was a confidant of the former Sui Dynasty, and it was still the same in the Tang Dynasty. Liaodong had a variety of forms, and Goryeo played an 'indispensible' role in it..."

"I estimate...at most one month, Pyongyang falls, and the good news of Koryo's demise will come."

Li Zhi suddenly pulled Wu Mei over, looked down at her and asked, "Meiniang, neither the former Sui Dynasty nor the first emperor could destroy Goryeo, but I can... you say, I am a wise king?"

Wu Mei raised her head, her eyes were full of intoxication, "Your Majesty is naturally a wise emperor, and my concubine is extremely happy to be His Majesty's wife..."

Li Zhi lowered his head...

The servants turned their heads.

The spring in the palace is pleasant, but the outside is bustling.

"Great victory in Liaodong!"

Those people gathered together to inquire about the news.

"The elites of Goryeo have all been wiped out, and Goryeo's extinction is not far away."

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

Those people spread around the palace, and the cheers swept away, and then swept back.

The whole Bingzhou was cheering.

...

Gao Chengchun, the guard of Seoul City, stood on the top of the city with a solemn expression. Outside the city, tens of thousands of troops were roaring, as if a herd of beasts were attacking something.

"The Japanese are here!"

Some people are pale.

A ride came slowly.

"Brother Zhong, Your Highness has something to say... Koryo is over, who are you waiting to fight for? If you don't surrender, go back and break the city of Seoul... Remember that you will never leave."

A general said to Gao Chengchun: "The Japanese will kill when they break through the city. Some people say...they will bleed like rivers."

"The Tang army is besieging Pyongyang, and Wen Shamen's army is destroyed. How will Pyongyang defend?"

Gao Chengchun glanced at the general, and said calmly: "Goryo has not been destroyed for a day, and I will stick to it for a day."

There was a worried look on his brow.

Since the day before yesterday, Pyongyang has cut off the news... The Japanese people are about to come to the city. Where are the reinforcements? Has Pyongyang been surrounded by Tang Jun?

If so... what will happen to Goryeo in the future?

Under the city, the former general Adan Biluofu said coldly: "It's a surrender!"

He glanced back and warned, "Look for a tall warrior."

The former general Hebian Baizhichen nodded, and immediately sent someone to find a 'tall and mighty warrior'.

Adan Biluofu said with satisfaction: "Go."

The tall and mighty warrior with a height of about 1.6 meters stepped forward, and the interpreter beside him shouted: "The Japanese army is here to help Koryo resist foreign enemies. The former general ordered you to open the city gate to welcome the army into the city. If not... …After the city is broken, no chicken or dog will be left behind!”

The roar echoed in the walls, Gao Chengchun sneered and said, "Sure enough, he is an ambitious wolf who wants to devour Gao Li. Tell him, it's a dream!"

"dream!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Everyone at the top of the city laughed, and then they were full of worries.

I don't know what's going on in Pyongyang now, the Japanese are just taking advantage of the fire to rob, and Seoul is in a dilemma...

Adanbiluofu said calmly: "In this case... tell the soldiers that if you break the city, you can do whatever you want for three days."

This is the meaning of massacre.

"The former general has an order!"

The army of tens of thousands of Japanese and Baekje people fell silent.

Several cavalry galloped and shouted in the formation.

"Break the city, you can do whatever you want for three days!"

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

The army was dispatched, and the city head immediately released arrows.

Seoul is one of the accompanying capitals, but the problem is that the city is not high...

"Let the arrow!"

Arrows flew, and the Japanese and Baekje people kept falling.

Those Japanese people came panting and carried the ladder, and with a bang, the ladder was put on the top of the city, and the soldiers rushed up howling.

"Assassination!"

The spear kept stabbing down.

Gao Chengchun looked coldly at those Japanese people rushing towards the top of the wall without fear of death. From time to time, some people rushed to the top of the wall, jumping down and slashing frantically...

Even after being injured, these Japanese and Baekje people did not retreat.

The general beside him tremblingly said: "I'm afraid it's... I'm afraid it's not good."

Gao Chengchun drew his saber, and then the saber flashed, and the generals around him fell to the ground.

"Perseverance is the way out!" Gao Chengchun said in a deep voice: "Remember, the Japanese are cruel and easy to kill. They said that they will not spare any chickens and dogs. Do you think you can survive if you surrender? Fight hard!"

The Koreans are also crazy.

Bai Zhichen by the river said intoxicatedly: "Our warriors have overwhelmed them, and we will definitely be able to enter the city today."

He licked his lips, "I haven't rested for a long time."

Atumbiluofu said coldly: "Your Highness handed over the army to me!... It's not the time to be proud."

Baizhichen by the river smiled and said, "Why are you so nervous? Seoul is just a small city, how can it stop our army? I have already thought about how to write the victory report... Your Highness, the warriors of our army are not afraid of death, and the battle is easy Take Seoul..."

He smiled very comfortably.

The corners of Atumbiluofu's mouth curled up slightly.

"The Tang army has arrived in Pyongyang." The rear general Monobe Lianxiong said in a deep voice: "I am worried that they will break Pyongyang, and then the army will attack."

Bai Zhichen by the river glanced at him, and said contemptuously, "Are you scared out of your wits by the Tang people?"

Lian Xiong from the Ministry of Objects sneered, "I dare to sleep peacefully in the graveyard at night."

hehe!

Bai Zhichen by the river said hehe.

"enough!"

Adan Biluofu said coldly: "Before the big battle, did you still have the mind to argue?"

Bai Zhichen by the river nodded, and said seriously: "Pyongyang is a strong city. There are tens of thousands of troops in the city, and there are countless food, grass and military equipment. Quangai Suwen is a famous Korean general with a reputation. How can the Tang army break through the city of Pyongyang within ten days? ?”

Adanbiluofu said: "Taking Seoul, our army will have a place to rely on. Then... I even want to suggest that His Highness will go to the army personally. As long as His Highness arrives in Seoul, the morale of the army will be greatly boosted. Even if you encounter Tang Jun, you will not be afraid." .”

Everyone's spirits lifted.

"I hope so." Monobe Lianxiong looked at the offensive and defensive battle at the top of the city, and said calmly: "The Tang army is led by Li Ji. This famous general of the Tang Dynasty is the most outstanding commander after Li Jing. The Emperor Tang asked him to come. Destroy Goryeo. There are countless generals in the Tang army, whether it is Gao Kan, Qibi Heli, or even the rising star Jia Pingan..."

He shook his head, "We have to be cautious. I always feel that I shouldn't take the initiative to attack Gao Li. It's a bit risky."

"Go up! Go up!"

Bai Zhichen by the river pointed to the top of the city and said joyfully: "Look! Our people have gone to the top of the city."

A team of Japanese opened a breach, and then began to sweep.

Bai Zhichen by the river looked at Monobe Lianxiong and asked, "How?"

Lianxiong took a deep breath and said depressedly: "I was wrong."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Not only Baizhichen by the river, but even Adambiluofu and others were laughing heartily.

It seems to come as if flying.

"There is movement behind Seoul."

Atumbiluofu was startled, "What's the matter?"

"Where's our scout?" Hebian Baizhichen asked.

The sound of hooves came suddenly.

Adanbiluofu squinted his eyes and looked at the two sides, "The Koreans are here."

"Array!"

he yelled.

At the top of the wall, Gao Chengchun was overjoyed, "Da Mo Lizhi's reinforcements are here, drive them down!"

The morale of the Korean people was greatly boosted.

The sound of horseshoes gradually became clear, and a cavalryman suddenly rushed out from the left.

The armor stung Atumbiluofu's eyes.

The cavalry reined in their horses, and the horsemen stood up. The cavalry looked at the swarming Japanese without fear.

"It's Tang Jun!"
