Under the night rain, the sky over the entire Chang'an City was dark.

In Taipingfang, on the roof of a completely dark mansion, two figures, one tall and one low, overlooked the brightly lit Suzaku Gate two miles away.

"What I just went in was the frame of Li Xuan, the king of Nanchang." An unfamiliar, magnetic voice rang out.

In the darkness, he turned to look sideways at his companion who was on the low side, and asked softly, "I heard that the envoy had contact with the king of Nanchang in Yangzhou City."

Messenger, Yangzhou, King of Nanchang.

This person is the Silla pleading envoy Chin blunt horn.

"Yes, the king of Nanchang is fierce and cruel, the envoy was indeed taken aback, he originally thought that he was already in the quagmire of the Tianyin Sect, but he didn't expect that he would be able to extinguish the Tianyin Sect so quickly, and he would be able to go back to Chang'an to get married." Chin blunt horn gritted his teeth for a while.

"Now, the center has received a report from Buying Xiao Cheng about that matter, and they will take action soon."

"Sir, what kind of decision will Your Majesty make, will you give up attacking Tibet and turn around and go all out to capture Silla?" Qin Duthorn's face was worried.

"Sir" looked surprised and asked, "Why did the messenger think so?"

"Sir didn't know that when the king of Nanchang was in Yangzhou, he said that if Silla got entangled again, he would lead his troops to Silla and destroy Silla." Chin Blunt Horn's face was full of worry.

"The messenger is afraid of the king of Nanchang?" "Sir's" face was full of surprise, he didn't expect that there would be this one.

"When the heads of the two high-ranking leaders of the Heavenly Yin Sect are thrown bloodily in front of your eyes, you will also be afraid." A wry smile appeared on Qin Dujiaogan's face, and then he said solemnly: "Personal honor and disgrace are nothing, but the king of Nanchang easily calmed the sky with his backhand, and the strength of the strong man is seen, if he is allowed to rush to Silla at this time, sir, I am really worried."

"Silla has Li Jinxing and Gao Kan as a general, and the emperor will not easily send the king of Nanchang to Silla." "Sir" shook his head unusually firmly.

"Sir, I really don't know, the Tang army is obviously preparing to retreat, why did our court risk provoking the Tang court and send troops to attack them, do we really want to focus the eyes of the entire Tang Dynasty on Silla?" Qin Duthorn's face was worried.

"The Tang Dynasty will not continue to stay in Silla, and the DPRK and China have been preparing for the war in Tibet for several years." "Sir" paused slightly and said, "At the beginning of the year, Tubo Gao Xiang sent people to Chang'an to sue for peace, and the emperor refused without the slightest hesitation...... The battle between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo is imminent, so how can they keep an eye on Silla again."

"So, the withdrawal of troops is inevitable." Qin Dull Jiaogan couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

"If you want to defeat Datang, now is the best chance and the last chance, once they retreat to the north of the Datong River, you will have no chance to win, even if you force the attack, it will only end in defeat."

"Having said that, but sir, I don't know what is going on with the war to buy Xiao Cheng now?" A look of worry appeared on Chin Blunt Horn's face.

Over the years, none of the commanders of the Tang Dynasty in Silla, from Xue Rengui to Liu Renliang, to Li Jinxing, were easy to mess with.

Xue Rengui was even impeached and demoted because of excessive killings, which is a rare thing in the Tang Dynasty, which has always admired military merits.

It can be seen how many people Xue Rengui killed at the beginning.

Although Silla attacked suddenly this time, there was an internal response, but if it was really said how many victories it could get, even Chin Kuang Gan himself didn't believe it.

"It's come to this, next, it's up to the court to deal with it, they should fight to the death again, envoy, whether they can bear it or not, it's up to this time."

"But the king of Nanchang ...... If the imperial court didn't want to transfer the king of Nanchang to Dongdao, why would they call him this time?" Qin Jiaogan was still a little worried, when he was in Yangzhou, almost no one knew about the connection between Silla and Tianyin Sect, but the king of Nanchang found out.

Not only that, but he also threw the heads of Wen Bingyan, the head of the Yangzhou branch of the Tianyin Sect, and An Rongxiang, one of the four elders of the Tianyin Sect, at his feet.

Two bloody heads

, has already made Li Xuan's powerful and vicious impression deeply into the heart of Qin Dull Jiaogan.

Although he was looking at Li Xuan from a distance now, Qin Xuan Jiaogan already felt a little weak.

"Nanchang Wang inspected the Honglu Temple Shaoqing, from a very early time, the emperor had wanted to let the king of Nanchang participate in the affairs of Silla, but at that time he was more thinking about negotiating with Silla, and now that he is here, don't you understand the emperor's thoughts?"

"I see." Qin Jiaogan suddenly came over.

The fact that the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, the king of Nanchang, is here today is enough to show that the intention of the Tang Dynasty to withdraw troops is very strong.

Now all that remains is how much Silla was able to defeat the Tang army in this war.

"Go back if you know it, messenger, and soon, the king of Nanchang will come to see you." "Sir" waved his hand, and Chin immediately surrendered his hand, and then retreated down the ladder to the roof.

Soon, a group of black-clothed men took him out of the compound and sent him to the Silla embassy in a black carriage.

The road is unimpeded.

On the roof, "Mister" was already looking at the palace in the distance, and his eyes revealed endless possession in an instant.

I heard him whisper, "Now, I'm afraid not many people have their eyes on this king."

The king of the East China Sea, this person is the king of the East China Sea, the son of Li Jiancheng, the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

Under the dark and rainy night, he was wearing a black robe, standing less than two miles away from the palace, but no one in the entire court knew that he was here.

I wouldn't even think that the current battle of Silla was used by the King of the East Sea to divert the attention of the imperial court..z.

This battle was planned even half a year ago, for today.

The gaze of the King of the East China Sea crossed the Suzaku Bird, looked at the Yongle Gate, and whispered, "Mother, are you okay?"

In the deep corridor, Li Xuan followed the chamberlain and slowly walked into the Penglai Hall in front.

Li Xuan's footsteps had just stepped into the Penglai Palace, and the hall was full of court*** and looked back at Li Xuan at the same time.

Liu Renliang on the left, Dai Zhide on the right, Hao Chujun in the middle book, and Zhao Renben in the door.

Zhongshu Shilang Li Yiyan, Zhongshu Shilang Yang Wu, Huangmen Shilang Gao Zhizhou, Huangmen Shilang Laiheng, Zhengzhi Doctor Xue Yuanchao.

Pei Xingjian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Liu Xianli, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Yang Wulian, the superintendent, Liu Boying, the secretary of the Honglu Temple, and other officials related to the six ministries, nine temples and five superintendents, all stood solemnly.

On the high platform above, Li Zhi, Empress Wu, and the crown prince Li Xian were all there.

Li Xuan's heart suddenly felt a sigh.

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Xuan walked forward, and finally solemnly arched his hand: "Li Xuan, the king of Nanchang County, meet the saint, the queen of heaven, His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Get up." Li Zhi glanced at Li Xuan and raised his hand slightly indifferently.

"Whoa!" Li Xuan arched his hand, and then quietly retreated behind everyone,

Now he doesn't know what happened, why the court bigwigs are all here, and they will call him over.

Li Zhi sat on the high platform, his gaze swept over the faces of everyone present, and finally turned sideways to look at Wu Chenghe, the secretary and supervisor on the side.

Wu Chengji immediately raised the fold in his hand and read directly in front of everyone: "Minister, Andong pacified the ambassador Li Jinxing, three days ago, the former Baekje general, the deputy general of Mai Xiao City, Chi Shouxin, led the people to rebel, fortunately the minister noticed it in time, and Chi led the people away, but a few days later, Chi and Silla attacked, more than 30,000 people, besieged and surrendered, bought Xiao Zhucheng, the offensive was very urgent, and the minister asked for backup."

After Wu Chengsi finished reading, he bowed to Li Zhi, and then slowly retreated.

"Bang bang bang!" Li Zhi knocked heavily on the table, and his eyes fell on Liu Renliang's body: "Zuo Xiang, the war on Dongdao has started again, Li Jinxing is asking for help, how many troops should be sent, and where will they come from?"

Liu Renliang dared to return from Silla before, and he has the most say in how to deal with this matter.

Liu Renliang did not hesitate at all, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the situation in Silla, the situation of buying Xiaocheng,

Dispatch troops from the Seven Cities."

Li Zhi frowned, and said puzzledly, "If that's just the case, why do you need to ask me for help?"

Li Jinxing, as the ambassador of Anton's pacification, all the Tang troops on the entire East Island were under the command of Li Jinxing.

Liu Renliang hurriedly arched his hand and said: "What the Gong of Yarrow wants to ask is the next deployment, the battle of Silla, when it is poured out, if you want to destroy its country, you need follow-up reinforcements, if you want to withdraw the army according to the plan, you also need post-assistance force, so that the army will not collapse under the pursuit of Silla."

The collapse of the army made Li Zhi and everyone present change their faces at the same time, and a figure couldn't help but appear in the hearts of everyone.

Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, conquered Goryeo three times, lost all three battles, and then the peaks and smoke rose everywhere, and the Great Sui perished.

"It really needs a decisive battle!" Li Zhi's eyes were cold for a while, and his gaze fell on Pei Xingjian, the secretary of the military department: "Pei Aiqing, how is the retreat plan formulated, if it is to retreat north, how many reinforcements need to be transferred from Liaodong Province."

"Your Majesty." Pei Xingjian stepped forward and said with a solemn face: "Now that it is October, if you want to withdraw the army, you should complete it within one month, otherwise the winter will be very cold, and the army will be difficult to move, and it will be prolonged, if you want to withdraw in October, you need to end the battle with Silla at the end of September, and then mobilize 3,000 soldiers from Liaodong Province to receive reinforcements."

"In other words, the Silla people expected our army to retreat, so they attacked at this time, delayed the retreat of our army, and waited until winter to annihilate our army in one fell swoop when our army had to withdraw." Li Zhi's keen gaze fell on everyone present, and everyone bowed their hands at the same time, "Your Majesty Shengming."

The current situation is such that if the Silla people do not attack, then the army will gradually withdraw from Silla in early October until it completely retreats to the north side of the Taedong River.

However, the Silla people came to attack at this time, intending to delay the retreat of the army, and when the army had to withdraw, they pounced like wild wolves and devoured the entire army directly.

"What if I change my mind and order Li Jinxing to guard the city of Xiao and not retreat?" Li Zhi's face suddenly became completely gloomy.

"Your Majesty." Zhongshu Ling Hao Chujun stood up and bowed his hand to Li Zhi: "Your Majesty, the withdrawal of Silla troops is a predetermined matter for the DPRK and China, otherwise the grain and grass for the war with Tibet next year will have to go east to aid Silla, and at that time, the war against Tibet will inevitably be delayed."

As soon as the so-called cannon sounded, there were 10,000 taels of gold, and the Tang garrison of Silla would consume a lot of money and food every day.

Of course, the army could continue to be stationed in Silla, but it would inevitably affect the imperial court's war grain and grass reserves against Tibet.

It was precisely because of this consideration that it was decided to withdraw the army from Tibet, and without this consumption, the DPRK and China could naturally calmly deal with the war in Tibet, but the Silla people shot at this time and bit the army to the death.

The army continued to be stationed in Silla, of course, there was no problem, but if the army wanted to withdraw, they would immediately pounce on them like hungry wolves, and directly devoured the tens of thousands of troops of the entire Tang Dynasty in Silla.

How sinister intentions.
