The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

1789 One Night

"You said the Tang army has entered the city?!" Abebirov said in surprise.

"Yes, my lord, hurry up and retreat, or if you come here in a while, your lord will not be able to leave." The Japanese soldier said.

Hearing this, Abebirov looked solemn, but shook his head: "No, I can't go, Dazaifu is now in such a state, where can I go? Going back to Asuka, I will die."

Abebirov buried tens of thousands of Japanese sailors and sank them all in Baijiang Village. Now that Dazaifu is lost, His Majesty the Emperor will not let him go. He has already been charged with too many crimes. If he could die in this Dazaifu, at least Asuka's family would be able to live in peace and stability.

He, Abebirov doesn't want to be a coward again.

When he was in Baijiang Village, he had already escaped once.

The whole country of Wa is so big, there is no room for him anymore, instead of returning to Asuka and being punished, if he doesn't die in battle, he can still have a good reputation and won't hurt his family.

Thinking of this, Abebirov tidied up his armor and drew out his katana.

"Now that the matter has come to an end, I won't force you any more, go if you want!" Abebirov said.

"No, my lord, regardless of life or death, the subordinates will follow you."

The person who spoke was the ashigaru beside Abebirov. He and Abebirov returned to Dazaifu from Baijiang Village. Everyone needs a person to take the blame, even if they go back, it will be a dead end.

"Me too!" The people outside also knelt on the ground.

"Okay! If that's the case, everyone, follow me to defend against the enemy!" After finishing speaking, Abebirov took the people in the house to the street, and fought hand-to-hand with the Tang army on the street.

The entire city of Dazaifu was in chaos, the flames illuminated the entire Dazaifu, and there were sounds of fighting and crying one after another.

This battle lasted until dawn. Blood flowed like rivers in the entire city. The corpses of Japanese soldiers covered the streets. The Tang army did not suffer much. After all, the Tang army was on the dominant side. The people of Dazaifu, who are armed with armor, have a huge advantage. Killing people is like chopping melons and vegetables.

Liu Rengui entered the city together with his subordinates, and they captured the Dazaifu. On the side of the Wa Kingdom, they had a foothold. They could use the Dazaifu to attack other cities on the island of the Wa Kingdom. As long as there is no news from Chang'an , he can wantonly attack the cities of the country of Wa on the side of the country of Wa, and plunder the people of the country of Wa.

Liu Rengui and his subordinates settled in the headquarters of Dazaifu, [-] Tang troops were left on the navy ship, and nearly [-] Tang troops were stationed in Dazaifu.

The living people in Dazaifu finally realized that the sky had changed, and Datang was no longer the amiable Datang to them, and as the notice was posted at the government office, the people finally knew why Datang's army would come attack them.

Because they sent sailors to help Silla attack Datang, which angered Datang, Datang not only sank their navy, but also attacked them in turn.

All of a sudden, the people in Dazaifu felt resentment towards the empress of Asuka.

Knowing that Datang is powerful, why do you still have to provoke others, but now it's better, when they beat you, how many people died?
In the war last night, the people who died in the city included their husbands, their sons, and the fathers of the children. Most of the men in the city died, except for the disabled, who couldn’t walk. Those on the road, those who couldn't hold a knife, basically died in battle last night.

This is also because of the order given by Abebirov.

He sent all the men in the city who could fight to the battlefield, and as a result, all the men who went to the battlefield died.

Abebirov also died in the battle. His body was hung on the flagpole by the Tang army to intimidate the people of Dazaifu and tell the people that it is best to be quiet. Those who can fight in your city were killed last night. Come on, don't make trouble, don't force Tang Jun to do things they don't want to do.

What I don't want to do is massacre the city.

This is a very inhumane thing, and Liu Rengui would not do it. If he really did this, after returning to Chang'an, he would have to be sickened to death by the court ministers.

He also wanted to go back to Chang'an, that fancy world for retirement, and didn't want to go anywhere else.

Liu Rengui also wrote an account of taking down the Dazaifu of the Japanese country, and sent people back to Chang'an on a special trip to hit the mainland of the Japanese country. This is a great achievement.

As for attacking other cities, no matter how you say it, you have to gain a firm foothold in Dazaifu first.

Liu Rengui has settled down for the time being, and on the Jincheng side of Silla, Cheng Chumo and Li Ke have been besieging Jincheng for more than half a month, but they know that Jincheng, as the royal capital of Silla, naturally has a lot of reserves in the city, but no matter how many , Can't survive the consumption of tens of thousands of people?Entering the city is high and deep, and if you want to take it down by force, you will definitely pay a high price, so Cheng Chumo and Li Ke did not move, they are still thinking of a way.

At this time of the war, the strategic materials they accompanied the army were almost exhausted, but the food and grass supplies from the rear were continuously delivered, so the army did not have to worry about food and drink, but the lack of things could not be delivered. of, say, gunpowder.

If there were gunpowder, Cheng Chumo and Li Ke would have started attacking the city long ago.

But gunpowder needs to be dispatched from Chang'an.

"Damn, I really don't know how many days these people in this city can last." There was no one in the tent, and Cheng Chumo couldn't help complaining.

At this time, Li Ke walked in from the outside, just in time to hear Cheng Chumo's words, and said with a smile: "There are only Silla's troops in the city, there are more than [-] soldiers, and there are so many people. Our army is besieging them on the periphery. No matter how much food and grass there is, it is not enough to consume. Whether it is the army or the people, they need to light a fire to cook, and the outside of the city has been swept away by our people. It will be a matter of time before they surrender. Now it depends on who insists first Can't stop."

"But when will this be the end? Our supply line is not short." Cheng Chumo said.

Speaking of supplies, it is really thanks to Xue Rengui, Xue Rengui has been doing well in Xiongjin these years, and the Xiongjin Protectorate has enough grain to supply the consumption of the army.

Only those who have been to Woongjin will know that the plains on the Woongjin side are as fertile as Guanzhong. The ridiculous thing is that this place was previously occupied by Goguryeo, but they don't know how to manage it.
