Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1027 Long attack
Tang Jun's attack was swift and violent.

However, there are also many Goguryeo soldiers on the Anshicheng side, so although the Tang army attacked quickly, it was not easy to capture Anshicheng easily.

Even, it is impossible for Tang Jun to break through the city gate at all.

While the Tang army was attacking the city frantically here, on the Silla side, Jin Jiang had already led the soldiers and horses to attack the city.

Silla has [-] soldiers and horses, which is not a small number. In Jin Jiang's view, the Tang army has [-] soldiers and horses. Goguryeo in the city should disperse more soldiers and horses to the Tang army.

They shouldn't be under too much pressure here.

However, when they really started to attack the city, they found that there seemed to be too many Goguryeo soldiers and horses in the city, and they changed one group after another.

They fought here for a long time, but they failed to make the slightest progress.

As soon as their people crossed the moat, they found the crazy counterattack of Goguryeo soldiers and horses. Group after group of soldiers and horses were repelled, and even directly wiped out.

The killing here seemed even crazier, but it was the soldiers and horses of Silla who died more.

Something is not right.

Looking at the situation of the siege, Jin Jiang's eyebrows slowly froze.

"Goguryeo sent a lot of soldiers here?"

Jin Jiang is not an idiot. After seeing this situation, he naturally thought of this, and after understanding it, he also understood the meaning of Goguryeo. They wanted to use more soldiers to weaken his Silla soldiers. Force them to retreat.

As long as they retreated, with the [-] troops of the Tang army, they would not even be able to break through Lin Wuwei's Infinity Formation, let alone attack the city.

Jin Jiang's eyes were fixed, and he quickly ordered: "Don't enter the palace too intensely."

The Tang army was still fighting, so he naturally didn't dare to withdraw his troops, but if he continued to attack the city like this, his [-] soldiers and horses might be very few left.

So we can only pretend to feint to minimize casualties.

After he did this, he could only pin all his hopes on Tang Jun. There must be fewer guards on Tang Jun's side, and he hoped Tang Jun could capture Anshi City.

The two sides fought like this for a whole day, and when dusk came, the autumn wind became even more raging.

The Silla Kingdom failed to capture Anshi City, and the Tang Army also failed to capture Anshi City, and the casualties on both sides were not small.

Li Shimin's eyes were fixed, and he suddenly felt an indescribable pressure.

He has never been so frustrated in fighting for so long.

He suddenly felt that his personal expedition this time might be a mistake, but from the moment he made the decision, he had no choice but to launch it.

He has no other choice, no matter how difficult this battle is, he has to save face.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, and we definitely won't be able to attack Anshi City today. Let's retreat." Li Ji took a look at the situation, and then proposed to retreat.

Li Shimin nodded, without too much hesitation, because there is indeed no need to continue today's battle.

"retreat."

Tang Jun quickly retreated from Anshicheng, and Silla quickly retreated after receiving the news.

When night fell, the bloody smell in Anshi City was still very strong. A few owls and hungry wolves were watching these corpses, but the whole Anshi City was quiet without any ripples.

In the Tang army camp, Li Shimin's face was very ugly, and a group of generals and advisers stood on both sides, not daring to speak.

"Silla has too few soldiers and horses, and they can't play any role at all. Anshi City is still difficult to attack. Dear friends, what good strategy do you have for this?"

Li Shimin asked, everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to stand up.

They used all the siege weapons of the Tang Dynasty, but with little effect. They were so invincible that they didn't know what to say.

The atmosphere in the big tent was a bit dignified and awkward, Li Shimin's question was not answered, which made Li Shimin's cheeks twitch slightly.

"My dear friends, isn't there someone who will stand up and say a few words?"

Ask again, at this time, Qin Tian stood up: "My lord, judging from the current situation, if my Tang army is willing to sacrifice more soldiers and horses to attack the city, there is still hope to capture Anshi City, but in that case, The last remaining of our [-] men is only [-] to [-]. In my opinion, the Silla Kingdom has now been divided into Silla, Goguryeo, and Baekje. There must be chaos among the three kingdoms. We might as well After they weaken each other, come and destroy them."

What Qin Tian said was rather euphemistic, but everyone understood the meaning.

Now is not the time to attack them, it is better to retreat temporarily.

Qin Tian wanted to retreat, but after he said this, Gao Shilian snorted immediately: "Silla previously neglected my Tang Dynasty, and killed my Tang envoy, and now my Tang Dynasty has been defeated many times, if we don't get back Isn't it ridiculous to just retreat?"

Gao Shilian also wanted to retreat, but he knew what Li Shimin was thinking, so he said such words to cater to Li Shimin, and at the same time, he could find an opportunity to embarrass Qin Tian.

After all, Qin Tian wanted to withdraw his troops, which made people feel shameful, and those who said such words were shameful.

Bloodless.

After Gao Shilian said this, Li Shimin's expression became condensed. As an emperor, what he wanted was face. Obviously, there was nothing wrong with what Gao Shilian said. It is obviously impossible to retreat without getting this place back.

"What Gao Aiqing said is very true. If I don't defeat them, I will not retreat. Well, let the soldiers rest well. Tomorrow morning, I will attack the city again. Also, warn the Silla Kingdom and let them fight me." Get up, otherwise, don't blame me, Datang, for being rude to them."

In today's battle, the number of people lost in the Silla Kingdom is not as large as that of the Tang Army. Li Shimin and the others don't need to think about what is going on. It must be that the Silla Kingdom did not use all its strength.

They want to quell the rebellion in Silla, but they are still unwilling to use all their strength. How can there be such a good thing in the world?

However, they believed that with Li Shimin's warning, they would definitely have to work harder tomorrow.

The night passed like this, and early the next morning, the troops of Tang Jun and Silla Kingdom came to the outside of Anshi City again.

The soldiers and horses of the two countries assembled separately, but this time, the Tang army was not in a hurry to attack the city.

"Li Shimin, you killed a lot of Tang troops yesterday, and you dare to attack the city today. It seems that you don't take the lives of Tang men seriously at all. It's really sad that they have an emperor like you."

Lin Wuwei looked at Li Shimin and laughed. He wanted to use words to anger Li Shimin, but also to use words to affect the morale of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Only in this way, he felt that they would be safe.

Facing Lin Wuwei's provocation, Li Shimin only showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and then said: "It's time to start."
