"Oops! Fooled! "The classic afterthought of history blurted out. Gao Chang's generals knew that something was wrong when they saw the Tang army's orderly formation, as well as the cold, aimed bows and arrows at them.

When they cracked the thunderbolt of the Tang army, the Tang army had completely organized a defense, and now, there were 30,000 people on the other side, and they only had a few thousand remnants of fighting spirit, and they could not match it at all!

The general was also a decisive person, and when he saw that the opportunity had been lost, he did not hesitate to give the order to retreat. "Withdraw! Evacuate! ”

How could the Tang army miss a good opportunity to beat the water dogs, under Cheng Biting Jin's order, the crossbowmen released arrows to the Gaochang army as if they didn't want money. The Gaochang soldiers rushed close, just within the range of the Tang army, and just turned around and retreated, and were shot by the Tang army's bows and arrows as targets, and they couldn't escape, screaming again and again.

In a panic, he fled indiscriminately, and ran headlong into the minefield arranged by the Tang army, and the explosions continued to occur, killing and injuring many people. Only a small number of people took advantage of the chaos to escape, and the Tang army did not chase them.

Because... This minefield is bombed even by its own people! In the middle of the night, no one dared to touch this brow, and only by waiting until dawn the next day to remove the mines they had planted could they enter and exit with confidence.

Although he couldn't pursue the remnants, Cheng Yanjin was very satisfied with this result, patting Chen Fei's shoulder and laughing.

"His grandmother's, Lao Tzu was attacked by a sneak attack, but he didn't lose a single soldier, but annihilated thousands of enemies, and he has never encountered such a happy thing in a lifetime of fighting! Hahaha! Joyfully! Joyfully! Good boy, you're there! No wonder Your Majesty spoils you so much, with your ability, it will definitely not be a problem to be crowned a prince in the future! Hahaha! Cheng Bingjin laughed, laughed enough, and went to Cheng Chumo to be angry, and took Chen Fei's example to educate Cheng Chumo with a hatred of iron and steel, and Chen Fei also became a standard "other people's child", which became a lingering shadow in Cheng Chumo's heart.

After Xue Wanjun sent people to simply clean up the battlefield and organize personnel to patrol the defense, soon the camp fell into silence again, but after that, no one came to attack the Tang camp.

It's not that he didn't come, but he didn't dare at all. The other party's hair has been touched, and he has lost more than half of his soldiers, and anyone who has experienced such a war will have a psychological shadow. I'm afraid that I will not dare to be an enemy of the Tang Army for the rest of my life.

A few days later, the news of the fiasco at the front reached Gaochang Kingdom, and there was an uproar throughout the country.

In the case of a sneak attack, more than 6,000 soldiers were killed, and the exaggeration is that the Tang army actually did not lose a single soldier.

Is this a war? It's all about abuse!

Thunderbolt! A word that made the countries of the Western Regions tremble was brought up again. However, this time, in order to cover up his defeat, the generals deliberately amplified the power of the thunderbolt again, what Tang Army can throw dozens of meters of accurate strikes and so on.

Frightened, the minister of King Gaochang almost had a heart attack. Well, Ju Wentai's health was not very good, after listening to the general's report, he was afraid that the Tang army would attack Gaochang every day, and he was really seriously ill, bedridden, and looked like he was dying.

Fifteen days later, the Tang army crossed thousands of miles of desert and arrived in Xizhou to make the last round of supplies before the war.

During the three days of the stay, a very absurd news reached Xizhou - Ju Wentai, the king of Gaochang, died of illness two days ago!

"King Gaochang died of illness?" Hearing the news, Cheng Yanjin was stunned, Xue Wanjun was stunned, and Chen Fei ...... Well, Chen Fei seems to have expected this ending a long time ago, and he was not stunned.

In history, Gaochang was destroyed in the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, and the king of Gaochang should have died of illness at that time. Now that Gaochang has perished a few years late, the old boy Ju Wentai has lived a few more years, and he has really earned it.

The violent death of King Gaochang is undoubtedly worse for Gaochangguo, but for Cheng Yanjin and others, it is undoubtedly the icing on the cake!

On the day he got the news, Cheng Yanjin called a meeting of all the generals in the army. Everyone unanimously agreed that when the king of Gaochang died violently and the Gaochang country fell into chaos, sending troops would definitely achieve unexpected results, and even take Gaochang without spending a single soldier.

As the saying goes, take advantage of your illness and kill you!

How could Cheng Yanjin let go of such a good opportunity, immediately reorganized the march, and prepared to go to Gaochang, intending to take the other party in one fell swoop!

Early the next morning, the Tang army assembled at the North Gate of Xizhou, and after counting the number of people and equipment, Cheng Yanjin and Xue Wanjun set off with the army in the direction of Gaochang in a hurry.

Xizhou is only a few dozen miles away from King Gaochang, and Gaochang is a small country at best, but a small place composed of several small cities and villages.

Even except for the royal capital of Gaochang, which is still a bit large, the other cities are not considered cities at all in the eyes of the Tang army, at most they can only be regarded as earthen forts.

Along the way, Cheng Biting Jin ignored those small villages and small cities, and led the army straight to the capital of Gaochang.

After most of the day's rapid march, in the afternoon of the same day, 30,000 Tang troops arrived at the capital of the king of Gaochang, and without saying a word, they directly set up a siege formation, wanting to attack the city.

When the Tang army opened up the posture outside, the Gaochang Palace, which got the news, was completely chaotic. The old king died of illness, his bones were not cold, the new king had just ascended the throne, he had no opinions, and the Tang army was already in the city, how could he resist? It's completely irresistible!

In the palace, the ministers gathered together, arguing chaotically, and the newly enthroned king sat on the throne without a master, watching the ministers quarrel with each other, but he heard the word "avatar" the most.

The vast majority of the ministers in the palace were not hopeful, and only a small number of diehards insisted on their own ideas, wanting to live and die with the king!

Just when several diehards of the main battle faction were arguing loudly, suddenly a soldier rushed into the palace to report it.

"Oh no! Oh no! Your Majesty! The Tang army has broken through the city gates! ”

"What!" Hearing the news, the palace exploded again.

"How long has it been? The Tang army broke through the city gate so quickly? Are you all furnishings standing on the walls? A radical minister stepped forward and angrily rebuked.

The Tang army arrived at the city and it was only a stick of incense from now, even if the opponent's combat strength was strong, there was no such exaggerated reason as breaking through the city gate with a stick of incense, right? Could it be that the Tang Army is all heavenly soldiers and generals?

"Then the Tang army has already rushed into the city gate? It's over, the city gate can't resist the Tang army, let alone the palace, this time Gaochang is resting! When the new king heard the report, his color turned pale, and he sat on the throne with his ass in shock.

Many timid ministers cried: "Your Majesty should listen to me and wait, surrender can ensure peace, now it's okay, I'll wait!" ”

When the ministers were in a mess, the general who had reported before swallowed his saliva, and said: "Your Majesty, the Tang army did break the city gate, but ...... They did not send a single soldier to rush in, and they are still outside the city, and they have not moved. ”

Have a great weekend friends~
