Chapter 74: The destiny of the Sui Dynasty... is wrong!
Several people were ordered to leave, and Gao Changsheng was the only one left in the hall.
His eyes swept across the hall, and on the luxurious dragon throne, there was only a headless corpse left.
Gao Changsheng's face looked normal, without any abnormality.
If it were normal, he certainly wouldn't have killed Gao Yuan so quickly.
After all, no matter which aspect, a living Goryeo emperor is more valuable than a dead one.
But the current situation forces him to do so.
Yes, if Pyongyang is captured, the country’s destiny will collapse.
In a normal sense, Goryeo has been destroyed now!
But after the destruction of the country, it did not mean that the Sui army would have a smooth journey in the land of Goryeo.
You know, on the Liaodong front, Goryeo still has hundreds of thousands of troops fighting fiercely with the Sui army.
This is no small force.
Now Goryeo's national destiny is crumbling!
It is impossible for the Goryeo army on the front line not to react.
After all, the Goryeo court was wiped out in one fell swoop.
But there is still a commander at the front line, and there is also a Fu Cailin outside.
If this force is not resolved, then this war of annihilation will not be considered a perfect victory.
For Gao Changsheng and the Sui army, the most important thing at the moment is time.
If you give the other party a chance to breathe!
If the Goryeo army retreated to the southern front, it would be a huge trouble, whether it went all the way south and attacked Pyongyang, or occupied the Yalu River and defended the city.
If things develop like that, the results of Gao Changsheng's action will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.
In order to defeat the enemy, the Sui army had to return to the old way of attacking one city at a time.
Moreover, once the Goryeo army captured the Yalu River, the difficulty of the Sui army's attack would increase exponentially as the battle line was lengthened and supply became more difficult.
Even if things go wrong, Goryeo might revive!
Although the Goryeo royal family and Yeon Gaesomun were all caught in one fell swoop.
But to a certain extent, it also means that Fu Cailin is no longer constrained by anything.
If left alone, he could easily take control of the frontline troops and re-establish a court. It might not be comparable to the previous Goryeo, but with an army of 300,000, once it is stabilized, it will definitely be a huge trouble.
It is because of this situation.
Gao Changsheng took off Gao Yuan's head without hesitation.
He had to capture the cities in the south as quickly as possible, especially the Yalu River defense line.
To achieve this, Yeon Gaesomun's head alone would not be enough.
Only by placing two heads together can the soldiers defending the city quickly lose the will to resist.
They then firmly controlled the Yalu River defense line and intercepted hundreds of thousands of Goryeo troops on the vast plains of Liaodong.
When the Sui army on the northern front moves south, the north and the south will join forces to encircle and annihilate 300,000 Goryeo troops on the plains. The outcome of this battle will be decided in one go!
Gao Changsheng shook his head and stopped thinking.
With the current military strength he has, this is all he can do.
What remains is to see whether time is on their side and the cooperation of the main force of the Sui army.
However, Gao Changsheng was not very worried.
They went south to capture Pyongyang and destroy Goryeo without wasting any time and almost swept across the country.
Moreover, as soon as Goryeo's national destiny was destroyed, he immediately sent out several deputy generals.
In terms of time, they are undoubtedly in an advantageous position.
After all, hundreds of thousands of Goryeo troops on the front line had to escape from the battle, march south, and get rid of the harassment of the Sui army. It was not a problem that could be solved in a short time.
Besides, the commanders of the Sui army were Yang Lin and Yu Juluo, and they had a general understanding of Gao Changsheng's situation.
Given their experience, it would be impossible for them to do nothing.
Perhaps at this time, the Sui army had already launched a general attack.
As long as the Goryeo army does not escape immediately, the Yalu River defense line will be controlled by Gao Changsheng.
Then the fate of these hundreds of thousands of Goryeo troops could be concluded. Everything had been arranged, and Gao Changsheng, who had some free time, realized that his position as the commander-in-chief seemed to be suddenly free.
But for Gao Changsheng, this is also a good thing.
Since setting out from Liucheng, Gao Changsheng has been on a forced march.
Although it is not a life-and-death situation, due to the frequent battles, there is indeed no free time.
Moreover, he fought along the way, defeated the Turks, and destroyed Goryeo.
Especially after the imperial edict of Daxing was issued and the fate of Goryeo was destroyed.
He could clearly feel the majestic aura surrounding him.
"only……"
Gao Changsheng whispered to himself.
The word "luck" is often mentioned.
The saying goes, "When luck comes, heaven and earth are on your side, but when luck is gone, heroes are helpless!" This refers to luck.
But when it comes to what luck really is and what the specific situation is, no one can explain it clearly.
In particular, the national destiny, which represents the destiny of a country, is extremely mysterious.
Gao Changsheng had seen records of national destiny in Gao Jiong's notes.
However, Gao Jiong was also very secretive about the specific situation of the country's destiny.
During the battle of Pyongyang, when the imperial edict from Daxing was issued and the fate of Goryeo was destroyed, he felt an invisible force enveloping his body.
"National destiny!"
Gao Changsheng muttered to himself!
Whether it was the appearance of Goryeo's golden dragon or the sudden appearance of the Sui Dynasty's national destiny, they all clearly told everyone the great power of national destiny.
But for some reason, Gao Changsheng's spiritual perception always had an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Close your eyes!
The perspective instantly sank into the space of consciousness between the eyebrows!
The originally empty and quiet space between the eyebrows was now filled with endless golden light.
Gao Changsheng was not surprised by this.
He already roughly understood that the driving force of this space between the eyebrows was most likely luck.
This time, he destroyed Goryeo, beheaded the Goryeo king, and was awarded three official titles by the Sui Dynasty.
Even without thinking, one can tell that his own luck will skyrocket.
Gao Changsheng was not concerned about the constantly rising and falling golden luck at this time.
But it is outside the golden aura, that is, the periphery of the space.
You can clearly see black aura escaping.
Gao Changsheng's body shook instantly.
The feeling that was suppressing his spiritual sense came back again.
"This……"
Gao Changsheng exclaimed unconsciously.
In his eyes, he could clearly see that the golden light in the space was constantly compressing, and in this process, black gas was constantly diffusing out.
As the black aura increased, Gao Changsheng could feel that his spiritual perception was slowly turning towards ease.
It can be said that at this moment, the space between his eyebrows is like a filter, filtering these unknown black auras out of the body.
"Is it luck? No, no, it should be the destiny of the country!" Gao Changsheng guessed, but shook his head in an instant.
Strictly speaking, national destiny is a kind of luck, but it is completely different.
This kind of situation has never occurred in the space between the eyebrows before, so it can only be caused by the national destiny of the two countries this time.
"Emperors have never lived for a hundred years. Could this be the reason?"
Gao Changsheng muttered to himself, thinking of a sentence he heard in his previous life: "The emperor cannot live forever if the fate of the country is entangled!"
But soon, Gao Changsheng shook his head again:
"No, it doesn't seem that simple!"
"I don't know about other countries, but the fate of the Sui Dynasty is not right!"
Gao Changsheng suddenly recalled the scene he had seen before, and spoke word by word.
