Chapter 1786: Losing more and winning less

The royal capital of Silla.

Two days have passed since the king of Silla left the city and surrendered.

In just these two days, the people of the Silla Capital have already suffered unimaginable disasters.

After Goguryeo soldiers entered the city, they quickly took over the city defense of the Silla capital.

And the city gates were closed as soon as possible.

Hundreds of thousands of people in the new city were imprisoned in the city. The Goguryeo soldiers who entered the city seemed to be crazy and forced their way into the people's homes and robbed their belongings.

Insult women, torture and kill people.

Even the Silla royal family could not escape the clutches of Goguryeo soldiers.

The king of Silla's concubines, maids in the harem, and countless others were affected by the disaster.

The entire Silla King was wailing.

"Commander, you are looking for me." The Goguryeo general came to Yeon Gaesumun's room with a pleasant smile on his face.

There were still women's clothes stuffed in her arms.

Apparently he had just come back from his extravagance.

Yeon Gaesumun looked at the general in front of him, and the expression on his face didn't look very good either.

"The order goes down. From today on, no one is allowed to harm the people in the city, and no one is allowed to enter the royal harem." Yeon Gaesumun said expressionlessly.

"But Marshal, brothers..."

"Don't you understand my order?" Yeon Gaesowun interrupted the general.

"Yes." The general lowered his head, looking a little disappointed.

Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Yeon Gaesumun again: "I know the hard work of the soldiers, so I only let them relax for the past two days."

"But we are not completely victorious. Luocheng has been captured by the Japanese and Baekje coalition forces, and they will continue to advance at any time."

"Commander, didn't we agree before that Japan would take Baekje and we would take Silla?" The general was a little confused.

He remembered that the original agreement with the Japanese country was that Silla would belong to Goguryeo, but now why did the Japanese country extend its hand?

"Promise?"

"In the face of interests, they are nothing!" Yuan Gaisuwen sneered.

He had never really believed in the so-called agreement with Japan.

But he didn't expect that Baekje would directly surrender to Japan, nor did he expect that the New Castle defenders would fight until the last moment.

Allowing the soldiers to indulge for two days was just a way to relax their tense nerves.

But if they continue to ignore it, the soldiers will definitely lose their fighting spirit. Once they really fight against the Japanese country, big trouble will probably happen.

"I'll go and deliver the order right away..."

"Wait!" Yeon Gaesumun called to the general again.

"Catch a few models who are hated by the people of Silla, and deal with them in front of everyone!" Yeon Gaesumun said.

But it made the general's expression change drastically.

After finally getting here, the commander actually wants to attack one of his own?

"The people of Silla have hated us so much in the past two days. If we lead our troops to leave, there is no guarantee that they will not remember what happened in the past two days and hinder us behind our backs."

"Find a few models and kill them to appease the anger of the people of Silla." Yeon Gaesumun waved his hand and said.

"I see."

"General, let's do it now!" Only then did the general understand Yuan Gaisuwen's intention, and immediately took the order and left.

As soon as the general left, Yeon Gaesumun's personal soldiers ran in.

"Commander, news has just arrived that there are large Tang border troops near the new city." The soldier bowed down to report.

Yeon Gaesumun's expression changed.

He immediately asked: "Where are they going?"

"The news is that the Tang Dynasty border troops are coming towards the capital of Silla." The soldiers continued to report.

Yeon Gae So-moon stood up from the stool and kept going back and forth.

Pacing around the room.

He knew that the Tang border troops would come.

But I didn't expect it to be so fast!

Didn't the Japanese send a message saying that they sent people to burn down the rear granary of the Tang Dynasty's frontier army? ??

So where did these Datang frontier troops come from?

Don't they eat or drink?

It must be that the Japanese country spread false news, so they took Luocheng without any scruples.

At this moment, Yeon Gaesumun felt that he had been deceived by the Japanese emperor and swallowed their thoughts alive.

"Summon the generals immediately for discussion." Yeon Gaesumun said in a gloomy voice.

…

"What on earth is going on? Why is it suddenly being discussed?"

"I don't know. Could it be that something happened?"

"Probably not. The King of Silla is imprisoned in the royal harem, and the ministers are also imprisoned. Who can make trouble and who dares to make trouble."

"makes sense."

The generals gathered in the meeting hall in front of the King of Silla, whispering to each other and discussing in a low voice the reason why Yeon Gaesumun summoned everyone.

Although everyone thought it was a bit strange, they didn't take it to heart.

They had been having a good time these past two days, and everyone's face was full of contentment.

"Hmph——" Yeon Gaesumun snorted coldly, interrupting everyone's discussion.

Yeon Gaesumun did not sit on the throne of the previous King of Silla, but stood on the steps and looked at the generals in front of him.

"Commander, what happened? We were suddenly summoned for discussion." A general asked.

Someone took the initiative to ask, and the others also looked at Yeon Gaesumun.

"I just received news that the Tang border troops appeared in Xincheng, and then came to us!" Yuengai Suwen said slowly.

Everyone's expressions changed instantly.

many people's eyes

Fear flashed in his eyes.

"Commander, didn't the Japanese country burn down the granaries of the Tang Dynasty's border troops?"

"How could they be able to send troops so quickly?"

"This is wrong, it's completely impossible."

"Commander, is the news wrong?"

None of the generals believed the news was true.

They all knew that the Japanese country conspired with the senior officials of the Tang Dynasty to burn down the granaries of the Tang Dynasty's border troops.

For at least two months, the Datang border troops would not be able to leave the border.

Moreover, the Tang Dynasty court issued an order that no one was allowed to mobilize the Tang border troops without an edict.

But now the Tang Dynasty border troops appeared in Xincheng.

If they had been faster, wouldn't they have been flanked by the Tang Dynasty border army and the New City defenders?

Thinking of this, many generals broke into cold sweat on their backs.

"Of course the news is true. I would like to ask you all if you are confident in defeating the Tang Dynasty border army." Yuengai Suwen confirmed the news and also asked the generals what they thought.

But no one spoke.

Everyone's face showed worry and anxiety.

The indifference and comfort just now were completely gone.

They had fought against the Tang Dynasty frontier army before. At that time, the Tang Dynasty frontier army was not equipped with weapons such as sky-blasting cannons and eight-niu crossbows.

They also lose more and win less.

Later, Shacheng was ceded to the Tang Dynasty and became the outpost of the Tang Dynasty eyeing Goguryeo.

Now they have 100,000 troops, and the Tang border army also has 100,000 troops.

Can they defeat the Tang Dynasty border army?

The answer is of course no.

Even though the Tang Dynasty border troops came from afar, they had just experienced the war and had not had a good rest for a few days.

If they really meet, I'm afraid...
