Chapter 438: The Helpless Treasure King

Soon the people who asked came back, and they asked no less than fifty people, all randomly, but they all said the same as General Park.

On that day, when they were preparing to resist the siege, they saw several large balls flying from a height of 100 zhang to the city wall, and then fire oil bombs the size of wine jars fell from the sky.

The city wall was suddenly a sea of fire, and the arrow tower was also burned to the ground, and they were killed and injured because they were defenseless.

The fire burned for two quarters of an hour before it was extinguished.

And the Tang army did not immediately attack the city, but did not hurry to push the siege ladder and siege equipment close to the city wall, and their general commanded them to prepare the city to resist the siege,

The ball that the Tang army could fly flew again, they retreated to dodge, and the flying ball also retreated, they came up, and the flying ball also came up.

During this time, they shot once with bows and arrows, or even crossbows, and found that they were not within range at all.

And the siege team of the Tang army took advantage of this opportunity to get closer to the city wall little by little.

In the end, they could only bite the bullet and want to fight with Tang Jun, but Tang Jun did not come up, but the fire oil bomb on the flying ball came.

For a while, the flames were shining again, and this method was very demoralizing to Goguryeo, and the Tang army was recuperating under the city, watching the hot air balloons tease the Goguryeo people,

After several pulls, the signal of war was sounded under Li Chengqian's order. How magnificent is the siege of 200,000 troops,

The siege ladder was full of soldiers waiting to climb the ladder, and the erected platform began to shoot at the Goguryeo soldiers on the opposite wall.

It's just that because of several pulls, the morale of the Goguryeo soldiers was low, and in a moment the city wall was attacked by the Tang Army.

After that, the results of the battle were expanded, and the Goguryeo soldiers were defeated and retreated. It was eventually cleared into the city.

Seeing that the general situation was gone, General Park rushed out of the other gates with thousands of people.

No one thought that this general defending the city would escape so decisively, nor did he expect it to be so smooth.

So when General Park escaped from the east gate, he was lucky to take advantage of the loophole, and Cheng Mingzhen's cavalry only killed a few hundred people in the back and let them cross the river.

There were defenders on the opposite side, and the cavalry did not chase them, which allowed General Park to escape.

After listening to the report, the Treasure King fell into deep thought, Datang really had such an artifact.

Then where does he have any chance of winning, he previously sent someone to Xue Yantuo's tooth tent to ask for troops to contain the Tang Dynasty, but Xue Yantuo's Great Khan decisively refused.

They had just lost more than 40,000 troops, and they were afraid that Datang would retaliate and retreat two hundred miles, and Datang didn't go to him for revenge, so he burned high incense.

How can you still send it to your door?

Now the Treasure King has sent several emissaries to the northern tribes of Murowei and Ya Ya, asking for assistance and handsome rewards, but it is not known if it will succeed.

"Wang, it seems that our plans should have changed, fortunately it is now winter, and it has just snowed, Datang should stop moving forward and wait for the spring of next year." A nobleman said.

"Well, this king also thinks so, but I don't know how to change, originally my Goguryeo was in turmoil, but the Tang Dynasty suddenly launched an attack on my Goguryeo, which is really a disaster.

What is hateful is Yuangai Suwen, if he hadn't suddenly rebelled and killed the boss, how could Goguryeo become what it is now, and the Tang Dynasty would not have taken advantage of it. ”

The Treasure King's hatred for Yuangai Suwen now reached the point where he longed to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

"King, for the sake of today's plan, we have to withdraw from the domestic city and move the capital to the east coast, otherwise Datang has an army of 400,000, and we are not opponents at all.

We can retreat to the east bank and defend the Yalu River, they can only cross the river by boats, and if they cross the river by the north, Yuangai Suwen will also stop them.

Chen thinks it's time for us to talk to Yuangai Suwen, if we can join forces, plus the hundreds of thousands of troops in Yuangai Suwen's hands, it will not be a problem to defeat the Tang army.

I had just thought about it, although their flying ball was magical, if the two armies were at war together, the flying ball would lose its effect. The noble brother continued.

"Alas~~" The Treasure King sighed after hearing this, he really didn't want to negotiate with Yuangai Suwen, and he didn't want to give up the domestic city,

"This matter, we are discussing and discussing to see if there is any other way, now that the weather is freezing, the Tang army should also repair in the city."

The Treasure King concluded.

And while the Treasure King was entangled, Yuangai Suwen was no better.

The food promised to them by the Wa Kingdom has never arrived, and only after inquiring did they know that there was a pirate group on the sea and robbed them of their food and people.

Their whereabouts are still unknown, and so are the merchant ships, and their emperor has sent an envoy to the Tang Dynasty to negotiate, hoping that the Tang Dynasty will send sailors to encircle and suppress it.

However, these Yuan Gai Suwen don't care, what he cares about now is food, and the grain they bought from the Tang family is also frequently robbed, although occasionally a batch of fish will come out of the net.

But a drop in the bucket is not enough for them at all, and their cultivation this year is less than four layers in previous years.

If this continues, their people will really starve to death.

Then there will be a great revolt in the area under his jurisdiction, and his palace may be looted by the people.

"My lord, news has come from the west," and one of the guards ran in.

"What news, show me."

The guard handed the note to Yuan Gai Suwen, who opened it and looked at it, just a few words.

Datang increased its troops by 200,000, the city of Susheng was lost, and Datang had a flying ball that could fly into the sky, and the fire oil and water could not be extinguished, and the defenders of the city were defeated.

After reading these words, Yuan Gai Suwen's hands trembled slightly,

The Tang Dynasty has increased its troops by another 200,000, that is, it now has an army of 400,000, plus some Goguryeo soldiers who surrendered, it is estimated that there are 500,000 soldiers and horses.

Even if the army left to defend the city, there would be at least 400,000 horses.

The Treasure King is definitely not the opponent of the Tang Dynasty, if he is the Treasure King, then he will cross the Yalu River to Hedong,

Form a north-south trend with yourself,

Tang Jun should also want this result, Tang Jun probably wants to let himself and the Treasure King fight each other, they watch the fire from the other side, and make a profit.

Yuangai Suwen can be said to be a generation of heroes, and his ability is definitely above the treasure king, so he quickly understood the current situation and the conspiracy of the Tang Dynasty.

It's just that he does have some doubts about the fact that Datang has a divine object that can fly into the sky, what kind of thing can fly into the sky.

He did not doubt the accuracy of the information, and if it was not true, the intelligence would never have been passed on.

"Order, continue to monitor every move of the Tang army, as well as the movements of the treasure king, and tell the army in the north that if the treasure king does not cross the border, he is willing to cross the river and not to stop it,

In addition, send someone to Datang to tell the envoy sent to the Tang Dynasty, and ask them to contact the family again to see if they can find out what the flying ball is, how to deal with it, and how to make it. There is also a key point in grain, and the king can add another 10% to the price.

Let them ship over as soon as possible. ”
