Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

"Yeah, but who knew that Yuangai Suwen was so brave, and I heard that he has repelled the Tang Emperor's offensive several times in a row! I'm afraid that this time the Tang Emperor's army will not be able to win easily, and now we can really rely on us only. yourself!"

Just as he was talking, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall.

"Your Majesty, there is a military report from Xuan Dou City, the Tang army is victorious!" The voice of the scout outside the door rang loudly.

"what?"

Queen Seondeok stood up immediately, and the comb in her hand fell to the ground without knowing it.

"Tang Jun victorious?!"

"Exactly!" The scout replied, "The Tang army set up an ambush plan and killed nearly [-] soldiers under Yuangaisuwen's account! And Yuangaisuwen was also shot by the Tang prince Li You, and now his life and death are unknown! "

"This is a great opportunity!"

Queen Shande looked overjoyed, squeezed her hands and said, "Tell the generals this news quickly, and let them quickly come to the palace to discuss matters!"

Chapter 879

"But now it's..."

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Queen Seondeok interrupted excitedly, "Send troops to Goguryeo to regain our lost ground and our dignity! The Lone King will never let Goguryeo enslave the Lone King's Silla Kingdom again!"

Looking at Queen Seondeok's gleaming eyes, the scout didn't know what to say for a while.

……

Two days later, under the city of Xuan Dou.

The Tang army lined up neatly in Xuan Dou City, and several loud Tang soldiers stood outside the range of the Koguryo bowmen and shouted loudly.

Xu Lin escorted dozens of military academies under Yuan Gai Suwen's tent, including Yuan Boqing, and lined up in front of the formation.

"Yuangaisuwen, watch, if you don't surrender, it will be the fate of your generals "[-]"!"

After Xu Lin shouted loudly, he kicked Yuan Boqing to the ground with one foot, and with a wave of his long knife, a dripping human head rolled to the ground.

There was a roar of mountains and tsunamis in the Tang army's formation. Now, beheading the captured enemy officers in front of the formation can greatly enhance the momentum of one's own side and weaken the morale of the opponent.

Yuan Gai Suwen couldn't bear to look at the city wall. He had a high fever because of the slight inflammation of the wound in the past two days. Now, every day when he closes his eyes, it is like the shadow of Li You killing a god!

This also caused him to grow old rapidly, and a few white hairs appeared quietly, and what he was talking about was Yuangaisuwen's current situation.He really no longer has the courage to go out of the city to fight against the Tang army, and sticking to Xuandu City has become his main strategic goal.

Suddenly a scout ran over and reported loudly: "Report, we have received a military report. The letter said that two days ago, Silla suddenly sent a large army to attack us!"

"However, Silla is beyond its own power. At this moment, the offensive has been resolved by our ally Baekje's army, and the Baekje army has already counterattacked into the hinterland of Silla, and even went down [-] city gates and approached Gyeongju, the capital of Silla!"

"Is this true?!" Yuan Gai Suwen suddenly stood up when he heard the words, and his originally pale cheeks couldn't help but regain a hint of rosy.

"The Baekje Army has already attacked Gyeongju, so I'm afraid the day of the break of the Silla Kingdom is not far away!"

"Send this news to the army!" Yuangaisuwen immediately ordered.

The Goguryeo army has been sluggish and demoralized because it was ambushed by Li You not long ago and lost nearly [-] people. However, if this news can reach the army recently, it will definitely boost the morale of the army, and it will not be so bad. Every soldier is frowning every day!

And Li Shimin outside the city also received a report from the scout, and his face was ugly for a while.

He has not been able to capture Xuan Dou City for a long time, and now the Silla Kingdom is about to be conquered!

Li Shimin would have lost face if he could not fight for a long time. If the kingdom of Silla fell again, wouldn't he, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who came to the dynasty from all countries, become the laughing stock of the world?

"Come here, the three-bow crossbow and hooked sickle soldiers move forward! Today I vow to capture Xuandu City!"

Li Shimin roared loudly, anger can make people crazy and make many wrong decisions, but Li Shimin obviously didn't realize this.

"Yuangai Suwen, I want to let you know today, why is the emperor's anger, the corpse of a million people is buried, and the blood is flowing into a river!"

Looking at Yuan Gai Suwen with a mocking smile on the city wall, Li Shimin couldn't help roaring loudly.

With a wave of the Tang army's command flag, a hole was slowly opened in the Tang army's formation, and the hooked sickle soldiers mixed with the three-bow crossbow quickly entered the battle, heading towards the city wall of Xuandu City.

Gao Renwu said: "Da Mo Li Zhi, our improved Iron Tower Army can fight against them!"

Yuangai Suwen nodded. He knew that the three-bow crossbow must not be allowed to get too close to the city wall of Xuandu City, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"The Iron Tower Army will go out of the city to meet the enemy immediately!" Yuan Gaisuwen ordered.

As soon as the city gate opened, the sound of horse hooves resounded like thunder.The hooked sickle soldiers just formed a formation, but they were surprised to find that there were many changes in this group of iron tower soldiers.

Not only did they put leather armor on the joints that were easily cut by the hook and sickle spear, but also not all the cavalry in the iron tower army formation, and it appeared that a cavalryman was surrounded by four spearmen guards.

For so many days, Yuan Gai Suwen and Gao Renwu have been studying how to eliminate the threat of the hooked scythe.

The last two people came to the conclusion that on the one hand, the protection should be thickened, and on the other hand, a cavalryman should be equipped with four spearmen to protect the knight on the horse and the four hooves of the horse under the knight's crotch.

There is no intention to calculate, and after the two big wins of the Tang army, the soldiers are a little bit fluttering, and after some battles, the soldiers with hooks, sickles and spears, who had previously faced the tower army who had the advantage, not only did not have a half-point advantage, It even nearly broke some people in!

"Your Majesty, today's battle cannot be fought for the time being, and we won't be able to gain an advantage if we continue to fight it. Why don't we withdraw first!"

A veteran found that occupying is not good for his side, so he could not help but persuade him.

Li Shimin also calmed down at this time, took a deep breath and ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.

After the bowmen from the two houses shot arrows at each other, the soldiers of the two sides slowly retreated to their square formation.

"Yuangai Suwen, today I will temporarily place your head on your neck, and I will take it tomorrow!"

"Emperor, don't be ashamed! I'm standing on the tower on 2.4 today, and I'll come up if I can!"
