The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, and no one knew what would happen next. For example, when Quangasuwen went to the mouth of Bogou, he did not expect a Tang army cavalry to come across the sea and suddenly rushed to the city of Pyongyang. Li Shimin would not expect that when the Yalu River was blocked, the fleet of Sillas would suddenly appear.

With these Silla fleets, Li Shimin finally restarted his plan to attack Pogoukou. After several days of preparation, he finally started a new round of attack today. After carefully selected two thousand soldiers boarded the ship first, and then all the ships set off together and rushed to the other shore like arrows.

Li Shimin also went out to watch the battle early. He originally thought that Bogou would definitely send troops to intercept the ships to dock, and this was also the most favorable time to attack the Tang army's landing, but what he and everyone did not expect was that there was no movement at the entrance of Bogou, and the city gate was tightly closed, as if the Tang army was allowed to land?

"Strange, why did the Goguryeo people not move at all?" Even the layman Li Xiu, who saw the closed door at the entrance of the Pogou, could not help but show a surprised expression. When building the floating bridge before, the other party did not give Tang Jun any chance, but now the ship is about to dock, but the other party has no reaction at all. This is really strange.

Li Shimin also frowned at this time. Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji and others also discussed a few words in a low voice, but in the end they did not discuss any results. At this time, the ships of the Silla people also began to dock, and then the Tang army soldiers also boarded the land on the other side, but there was still no movement at the other city gate.

"No matter they are concerned, send another group of people!" Although Li Shimin felt that the Goguryeo people's reaction was strange, the arrow was on the string and everyone had already been sent, so it was impossible to withdraw. Moreover, since the opponent did not respond, send more people. In addition, the craftsmen here also began to work together to build a floating bridge. After all, there were tens of thousands of people, plus supplies and other items, so they could not be transported by ships alone.

The second batch of soldiers were transported quickly, and even the floating bridge was halfway through, but there was still no movement at the entrance of Bogou opposite. Li Shimin and others looked at the top of the other party's city with telescopes, and they could see many defenders, but not only did the other party not leave the city, they even did not even release an arrow.

Seeing this situation, Li Shimin and others also felt something was wrong. At that moment, he discussed with Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji and others, and then decided to let the Tang army crossing the river test the reaction of Bogoukou. So the other side quickly organized a team of siege and rushed towards the city gate of Bogoukou with a shield.

Then what no one expected was that just as Tang Jun rushed to the near the city gate, the city gate was suddenly opened, and then a group of Goguryeo people walked out of the city gate with white flags, and it seemed that they were going to surrender.

Some time ago, the Tang army was blocked tightly at the mouth of Bogou on the west side of the Yalu River, but suddenly surrendered today, which made everyone unable to come back to their senses. Even Li Xiu thought he was dreaming, after all, the other party's surrender came too suddenly.

However, after reacting, some people soon thought that Bogoukou might have been a fraudulent surrender, and even Li Shimin had such concerns, so they immediately ordered the Tang army on the other side to be careful. However, the Tang army soon rushed into the city gate and appeared on the top of the city after a moment. The entire city gate was completely controlled by the Tang army. It was impossible to have fraudulent surrender at this time. After all, the city gate was handed over to the Tang army, and no matter how many troops there were in the city, it would be useless.

Seeing the banner of the Tang Dynasty erected on the top of the city, Li Shimin and others had to believe it if they didn't believe it. However, everyone had a big question mark in their hearts, and they couldn't figure out what was going on? However, those surrendered Goguryeo people could definitely answer their questions, so Li Shimin immediately ordered people to bring the surrendered people over.

After a while, an old man with gray hair was taken to Li Shimin, and then he bowed to Li Shimin deeply and said, "Xu Hong, the general of Bogoukou, pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Where is Quan Gai Suwen, why didn't he come to see me?" Li Shimin glanced at the other party indifferently.

"Report to Your Majesty, Da Molizhi received news that Pyongyang City was besieged by the Tang army a few days ago, so he led his troops out of Bogoukou two days ago. Now there are only one thousand defenders left in the city. My subordinates knew that they could not resist the Tianjun, so they took the initiative to open the city gate to surrender!" Xu Hong replied again.

"I left two days ago, so why didn't you open the city gate and surrender two days ago?" Li Shimin couldn't help but say angrily when he heard Xu Hong's words.

Quan Gai Suwen has been away for two days, and it is estimated that he may be about to reach Pyongyang City now. What’s even more hateful is that he didn’t notice it in the past two days. It is estimated that Xu Hong has placed all his troops on the top of the city, and he is facing each other across the river. Even if there is a telescope, he is confused by the other party.

"Xu had no talent at first, but because of the respect of Damolizhi, he appointed me as the guardian of Bogoukou. When Damolizhi left, he told me to delay it for two days no matter what. At that time, Xu also agreed. There is a saying in the Central Plains that a gentleman's word is as good as a horse. Although Xu did not dare to call himself a gentleman, he was unwilling to be the one who broke his promise!" Xu Hong said with a calm expression.

"What a gentleman's word! But do you know that it is because of your delay that it may cause Quan Gaisuwen to escape back to Pyongyang City, and there is also my 10,000 army on Pyongyang City. If you encounter danger, you will be punished by death!" Li Shimin's anger did not diminish because of Xu Hong's words, but instead questioned even more annoyedly.

Quan Gai Suwen's escape may not only lead to the danger of Su Dingfang's army, but also after Quan Gai Suwen returns to Pyongyang City, the Tang Dynasty will have to pay a considerable price to conquer Pyongyang City. Although these cannot be blamed on Xu Hong, they have a great relationship with him.

Faced with Li Shimin's anger, the guard Xu Hong was silent at the moment. After a while, he slowly said: "Since Xu dared to stay, he had already put life and death aside at the beginning. He just hoped that His Majesty could let go of the thousand defenders in the city. They were either old and weak, sick and disabled, and had no threat to the Tang army and could not keep up with the army's actions, so they were kept by Da Moli."

"Hmph, now is not the time for you to make a condition, so take him down!" Li Shimin heard this, but he dared to make a condition, so he snorted coldly, and then someone immediately escorted Xu Hong down.

Bogoukou fell into the hands of the Tang army with almost no effort, but Li Shimin couldn't be happy no matter what. He was mainly worried about the safety of Su Dingfang. If Quan Gai Suwen attacked Pyongyang City in front and behind, might the 10,000 cavalry under Su Dingfang be able to withstand it?
