The ancients had a cloud: the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. It means that the situation on the battlefield is elusive, and the offensive may be smooth one second, and the enemy is losing and retreating, and the next second it is tragically discovered that he has fallen into the enemy's trap and is killed and defeated. It is also possible that when you are at a disadvantage, you suddenly discover a loophole in the enemy, command your troops to fight hard, and finally turn defeat into victory.

In short, things on the battlefield are complex, and the negligence of one detail can make the difference between success and failure.

But two months have passed since the war on the Korean Peninsula, and even if it is changing rapidly, it has long since become unrecognizable, and it is unbearable to look at it directly.

When the Tang army came to the border slowly, on the same day, the royal capital of Silla was finally broken because of the lack of food and grass, and it could not be defended.

After seven days of starvation, it was remarkable that the Silla army was able to hold out so far. The royal capital is broken, and it is really helpless.

It was not so much that the city was breached, but that Silla gave up on its own initiative. Seeing that the defeat was irretrievable, the queen of Silla fought her way out of the siege under the cover of 30,000 main forces in order to retain her effective forces, and retreated to the next city.

However, many of the people in the city, as well as many ministers, did not have time to evacuate, so they could only stay in the city and were captured by the armies of Goguryeo and Baekje.

For Goguryeo and Baekje, although they did not catch the Silla royal family, the important ministers of the Silla Dynasty were almost swept by them, which was equivalent to destroying most of the Silla Dynasty.

Even if the Queen of Silla escaped with her family, the situation was not much better, and it was impossible for them to hold out for long before reinforcements arrived.

Goguryeo and Baekje saw that the Tang army was delayed in coming to the rescue, and they also had a bottom in their hearts, quickly occupied the Silla royal capital, and then chased after the Silla queen non-stop and besieged the next city. They must completely capture Silla before the Tang army reacts!

Goguryeo and Baekje raced against time, but the Tang army, which made them fearful, slowly and leisurely, had just gathered at the border.

Because there was no news of the battle ahead, they thought that Silla was still defending the royal capital. No matter how the two envoys jumped, Li Tao just didn't care about it and went his own way.

The army has just met, so you have to count the troops and get familiar with their respective generals, right? It's not too much to lead under unification, right? Do you want it to take a day or two? Otherwise, when you go to the battlefield, you won't know the soldiers, and the soldiers won't know the generals, won't they be chaotic, and how can they fight?

Two days later, seeing that the soldiers of the Tang Army were almost familiar with it, the two envoys went to Li Tao again, hoping that they would send troops as soon as possible, but they were prevaricated back by Li Tao again, on the grounds that the soldiers had been running for two months, and the army was tired, so they needed to rest and adjust for two more days. You can't fight if you don't have the spirit.

The two envoys were almost completely defeated, thinking to themselves, why do you have so many things? But after all, there is a request for others, even if the psychology is not happy, you can't have a seizure in person, so you have to leave depressed.

Finally, on the fourth day, to their gratitude, the Tang army finally showed signs of sending troops, a total of 60,000 soldiers, 30,000 people gathered in the school field, and Li Tao was at the swearing-in meeting.

However, this oath-taking meeting is a bit strange, the more I listen to it for two hours, the more I feel that something is wrong, how can I listen to Li Tao's meaning, it seems that the troops will not be sent until tomorrow?

The two of them are about to collapse suddenly, if you don't play like this, do you want to send troops to rescue like this? Why don't you look like you want to save people at all?

The two of them really guessed correctly, Li Shimin's secret edict to Li Tao was very simple, only six words: sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman!

Li Tao naturally understood the meaning in seconds, and dragged his feet along the way in order to let Goguryeo and Baekje capture Silla, and then he sent troops to take advantage of the exhaustion of the Three Kingdoms to fight all in one go. Since then, the eastern territory has been fully incorporated into Datang, and there is no need to worry about these neighbors, and the world is peaceful.

The poor Silla envoys didn't know what attention Lee had in their hearts with Li Shimin, and they foolishly thought that they were really willing to rescue their country.

In Chen Fei's words, it is - innocent and cute.

However, in the end, Li Tao still sent troops on the same day, the reason is very simple, the news that the king of Silla has been defeated reached the border, Li Tao pinched his fingers, if he did not send troops at this time, Silla would really be eaten by Goguryeo.

Although he wants to reap the benefits of the fisherman, but the kung fu on the surface still has to be done, if he really dies and does not save him, he will inevitably be abused by the world, and if he does not do it well, he will be offended, this pot must not be carried, so it is time to send troops.

When the two envoys heard the news of the army, they couldn't be happy, because the king of their own country had been broken, and how long could the remaining troops last? Will Silla still exist? If the country is dead, then what are the two of them? They could even guess that their family had suffered misfortune when the city was broken.

However, to their relief, the Tang army seemed to be really serious, and on the same day, Li Tao ordered a rapid march and rushed to the city closest to the border in Goguryeo overnight, and without saying a word, immediately organized troops to attack.

Don't look at Goguryeo's main forces sent to attack Silla, this border city should not be underestimated, it is a difficult bone to gnaw. Probably because he was afraid that the Tang army would suddenly launch a sneak attack on them. Therefore, the defense of the city was very strict, not only did not draw a single soldier from this city, but also strengthened the city wall, and it was difficult for 60,000 troops to capture it in a short time.

But Goguryeo still underestimated the strength of the Tang army, or rather, underestimated the sharpness of the Tang army's weapons.

Chen Fei discharged the special forces team, took advantage of the night to touch the foot of the enemy's city wall, set up thunderbolts under the three gates of the city, and quickly retreated after detonating. The gates of the city were blown down by thunderbolts, and the gates were opened.

It wasn't too late, thirty cannons lined up outside the city, and without saying a word, they bombarded him on one wall. No matter how strong the city wall is, it can't withstand such a dense bombardment, and the Tang army is not polite to you at all, and when firing artillery, you don't know how to write the word moderation at all.

In less than a quarter of an hour, this wall was destroyed by artillery, and it was useless, and it could not be used as a barrier against the attack of the Tang army.

What the Tang army smashed with cannon fodder was not only the enemy's city walls, but also the confidence of the enemy's counterattack.

How could these Goguryeo people have ever seen such a terrifying fighting power, and in less than a quarter of an hour, they actually smashed the entire city wall, how could they resist this? What to resist? The defenders in the city were completely defeated, and before the Tang army could launch a formal attack, these soldiers threw away their weapons and fled.

From the beginning of the attack to the complete occupation of the city, it took an hour, and it is estimated that the fastest siege record in the world has been broken.

I'm sorry, it's been a busy few days, the update is over, and Carvin is also amazing, I want to end, but I find that I want water, although it's enough water, alas......
