Chapter 827
The Japanese army was defeated very quickly, which quickly exceeded everyone's expectations. When the news of the Japanese army's defeat was transmitted back to Baekje, the whole country was in an uproar.

Woongjin Castle, the old royal palace.

A hundred years ago, before Baekje moved its capital to Sibi, Woongjin Fortress was once the capital of Baekje, and it was once very prosperous. However, after the Queen of Baekje Seongmyung, Woongjin Fortress, which lost the aura of the capital, slowly declined and became a pure military city. , to guard against the northern cities of Goguryeo and Silla.

The current Woongjin City is quite depressed. Although Baekje King Fuyu Yici moved his capital here again, everyone knows that this is just a helpless move when Sibi City was destroyed, and there is nothing to do for this ancient city. Bring half anger.

The current Woongjin Castle is the best and most realistic portrayal of the entire Baekje country. It is ancient, decaying, and precarious, and now the hope of the entire Baekje country lies in the Japanese army who rushed to help, but with the news of the naval battle at Baijiangkou It is said that the last glimmer of hope of Baekje has been completely extinguished.

"Your Majesty, news from Donghai." Fuyu Yici was waiting in the inner palace of the king's city, Shazhai Qianfu rushed into the palace, holding the battle report from Donghai in his hand.

"How?" The battle report urgently sent by Donghai was naturally related to the battle between the Tang army and the Japanese kingdom. This battle was also related to the national fortune of Baekje, and Fuyu Yici asked quickly.

Sha Zhai Qianfu replied with an ugly face: "The news from the scouts is that the Japanese army was defeated in the East China Sea, and the entire army of [-] sailors was wiped out."

"What! It's so, is this true?" Fuyu Yiciyou was a little unbelievable, and asked one more question.

Sha Zhai Qianfu submitted the battle report, saying: "Several scouts have reported that the Tang Army's navy has returned triumphantly. This news cannot be false."

The words of thousands of blessings from Sha Zhai came to his ears, and Fuyu Yici suddenly felt dizzy. In the battle with the Tang army, the Japanese reinforcements were his last reliance, but before he saw a single reinforcement, the entire army was wiped out. How can he accept it.

Baekje King Fuyu Yici and Osa Hei Shazhai Qianfu sat in the house, Fuyu Yici held the battle report in his hand, and Shazhai Qianfu looked at each other.

The Baekje kings and ministers have been driven to a desperate situation by Su Dingfang, lost the capital, and abandoned the soldiers in the capital. Now they can only rely on Xiongjin City and the more than [-] soldiers in the city to stand by and wait for help.

Before, they could still wait for reinforcements from the Wa Kingdom, but now the Japanese navy was defeated, the entire army was annihilated, and even a ship failed to come. Now Xiongjin City has become an isolated city, and only [-] people want to counterattack , easier said than done, almost impossible.

"The [-] elite naval divisions were all lost in just one day, and the Tang army had less than a thousand casualties. How could the Japanese army be defeated so quickly? So thoroughly?" Fuyu Yici seemed unable to accept it for a while. Such a reality, looking at the battle report in his hand, sighed.

The Tang army besieged Sibi City with more people than the defenders of Sibi City. Fuyu Yici supported it for many days, but the Japanese army was wiped out in just one day. Fuyu Yici was really surprised, not to mention that the Tang army was still Not good at sailors.

Sha Zhai Qianfu said: "Although the number of the Tang army is smaller than that of the Japanese army, the victory of the Tang army lies in the tall and strong ships. Liu Rengui, the naval commander of the Tang army, is also good at attacking with fire. It is normal for the Japanese army to lose."

Fuyu Yici originally had great expectations for the Japanese army. The Japanese army is an island country surrounded by the sea. It is especially good at the navy and is famous in the East China Sea. Fuyu Yici originally thought that the Japanese navy could defeat or even wipe it out. The navy of the Tang army, and then joined them to attack the Tang army by land and water, and counterattacked in one fell swoop, but they did not expect this to be the result. They waited for the news that the navy of the Japanese army was wiped out.

Fuyu Yici asked Shazhai Qianfu: "Wa's navy has been defeated. I'm afraid we will have no reinforcements in Baekje. Right now Su Dingfang is leading an army to station in Sibi City, and Jin Yuxin is also eyeing us. What should we do next? Do you have a way?"

Regarding Fuyu Yici's question, Shazhai Qianfu did not answer him directly, but first asked: "If you follow the king's wishes, if I Baekje try my best to defend Woongjin City, will I have a chance of winning?"

Fuyu Yici shook his head and replied, "Even if our national strength in Baekje was completely victorious, we would not be the opponent of the Tang Army. What's more, now that there are no more reinforcements, how long can this Woongjin City be defended?"

With Fu Yu Yici's words, Sha Zhai Qian Fu also had a solid foundation in his heart. Sha Zhai Qian Fu said: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, after the Tang army broke Sibi City, they treated the people in the city very leniently. Uncle Bo, Fu Yutai and the rest of the surrendered generals have never been in a difficult situation, there are some things that the king needs to plan ahead of time."

Although Sha Zhai Qianfu didn't directly mention the matter of surrender, but the meaning in it could not be more clear. Fuyu Yici asked: "Does Da Zuoping want me to surrender to the Tang army?"

Sha Zhai Qianfu said: "That's right, now Jin Yuxin is about to attack Woongjin City, if Woongjin City falls into Jin Yuxin's hands, His Majesty and ministers, as well as the people in the city will all die, so the best way for us right now is Defend Xiongjin City, and then surrender to Su Dingfang, so you can still find a way out."

Baekje State has been in existence for hundreds of years, if Fuyu Yici were to descend to Tang Dynasty, he would naturally be unwilling in his heart, but what Shazhai Qianfu said was the truth, Jin Yuxin was not far from Woongjin City, and he was eyeing him like a tiger. As far as foreign relations are concerned, they are bound to die, so now Su Dingfang has become the one who can save them.

After thinking for a while, Fuyu Yici replied: "In that case, according to your suggestion, go to Su Dingfang to deliver the letter."

————————————————————

On the side of Woongjin City, Baekje monarchs and ministers are discussing the matter of surrender, while at the same time, Kim Yu-shin, the coach of the Silla Army outside Woongjin City, has become an ant on the hot pot.

The reason why Jin Yuxin dared to obey Su Dingfang's order was because he was optimistic about the Japanese navy and believed that they could defeat the Tang army and change the situation on the Baekje battlefield. But now the Japanese army was wiped out in just one day, which completely disrupted Kim Yushin's original arrangement.

"The navy of the Tang army has returned triumphantly. Soon the general will lead the army northward to Woongjin. If he sees that we have not yet attacked the city, he may not be able to explain it." In the tent of the Silla army, Jin Wenying learned that the Japanese army The news of the annihilation of the entire army, with a sense of complaint, worried about Jin Yuxin.

Jin Yu said: "Who would have thought that the Japanese army would be so vulnerable. Forty thousand Japanese soldiers were wiped out in just one battle. They are simply a bunch of waste."

It was Kim Yu-shin who decided to stand still and watch the fire outside the city of Woongjin. Now that the Japanese army is defeated and the Tang army is about to go to Woongjin city, the fire is about to burn on the Silla army. As the commander-in-chief, Kim Yu-shin is naturally to blame.

Jin Wenying said: "Then how should we explain to the General that we did not move our troops before? It is a foregone conclusion that the entire Japanese army will be wiped out, and it is inevitable that the General will go north. Yiyi should make up his mind quickly, otherwise the General will blame him. We can't afford it."

Jin Yuxin thought for a while, and replied: "At that time, it will be said that I was seriously ill after I left Sibi City. At that time, the three armies of Silla had no commanders, and they dared not move lightly, so they failed to attack the city."

Jin Wenying asked: "Is this kind of rhetoric too far-fetched?"

Jin Yuxin gritted his teeth and said: "The matter has come to this point, there is no way out. Liu Rengui triumphed, the general will go north in a few days, we still have five days at most, within these five days we must take Xiongjin City, if we can take it In Xiongjin City, we still have meritorious service, and the general must make things difficult for us."
