If Anshi City really fell suddenly, then even though Yeon Gaesumun had always had a strong psychological quality, if this happened... I don't know if he could withstand it, it would be too scary.
The key is that it was too fast. The Tang army fell into more than ten cities in a row. This is just like those half-true and half-false stories in ancient military books.
But it’s just an ordinary city. The problem now is that Anshi City is logically...
Unlike ordinary cities, this is not the defense center of Goguryeo, but it is indeed the focus of Goguryeo's defense.
If this thing is also killed suddenly, then my country, Goguryeo, can shut down the power at the speed of light.
Thinking of this, Yeon Gaesumun took a deep breath, knowing that the situation was critical... and there was no time to wait any longer!
"Your Majesty, the truth of this matter is unknown. I will immediately organize troops and send people to assist Anshi City!"
Yeon Gaesumun's psychological quality is indeed extraordinary. Even at this time, his heart is still as stable as a mountain.
But when he said this, Gao Jianwu suddenly woke up and nodded quickly,
"That's alright... Then we have a big fight with Lu!"
Yeon Gaesumun saluted again and immediately turned around to leave. But then Gao Jianwu suddenly shouted, "Wait!"
"King?"
Yeon Gaesumun turned around in surprise, never thinking about Gao Jianwu... what else could this possibly mean?
I saw Gao Jianwu's face full of exhaustion, "Goguryeo is now in a precarious situation. This rush for help will greatly affect Lu Ke's demolition of personnel at will. Remember not to take risks yourself!"
As soon as Gao Jianwu finished speaking, Yuan Gaisuwen quickly saluted and said, "Thank you so much for your love, your Majesty. I will definitely die in return!"
After saying that, he walked away.
Although he said thank you to the king for his kindness, Yeon Gaesumun was very disdainful in his heart.
What kind of king is this? He doesn't feel safe at a critical moment, and he still has to keep an eye on the general.
It's so silly. At first, you suspected that you were going to usurp the throne, so you were on guard against it. You didn't even dare to be the king yourself, and you still guarded against someone else usurping the throne. It's really funny.
But... it's funny to be funny, and it's contemptible to be contemptuous, but Yeon Gae So-moon's self-positioning is also very clear:
I am a Xianbei person and will always be so.
Although Gao Jianwu had cerebral palsy, if he really tried to defeat him, the Tang army would laugh to death immediately, and they would be able to capture Goguryeo without a single blow.
Shaking his head, Yeon Gaesumun walked quickly towards the military camp under the dark leaden sky and heavy snow!
"Come here, go and invite the two generals Gao Huizhen and Gao Yanshou!"
…
"Huh...it's getting colder and colder..."
A complaint sounded.
In the middle of nowhere!
The army was marching quickly. Because they were all cavalry, they moved very quickly.
And...despite the huge scale, all the riders on this route seemed to have incredibly good riding skills.
It was obviously an action involving a hundred thousand troops, and the marching speed was extremely fast, but overall there was no sign of crowding, congestion, falling behind, or trampling on each other.
There is no doubt that these riders are all the most professional riders - Xianbei cavalry.
The direction this army was heading towards was Anshi City, an important military town in Goguryeo.
Ansi City is located in the south of Goguryeo. Although the terrain has been on a plain since ancient times, because there are abundant natural water sources in the city and there are all pastures or farmland nearby, it has always been a place where a large number of Goguryeo's economic resources are gathered: whether it is food, fodder, or sheep.
Horses...are extremely abundant. Therefore, this city was built to be extremely large and strong, and it became the center of gravity of Goguryeo.
And since it is such a city... then it is conceivable that as the center of defense, the city is of course the psychological support in the hearts of the people, and it is a city that must be defended no matter what.
Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen led their troops to rescue Anshi City.
At first, the two of them were very nervous.
This job is not easy to do, Tang Jun is so damn strong.
Of course, Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen were also famous generals of Goguryeo. Especially as Gao Yanshou, as a clan member, was highly regarded by Gao Jianwu and even the late king, so he still had good psychological quality.
Despite being nervous and worried, Gao Yanshou could only act quickly, as did Gao Huizhen beside him.
but……
As the army marched all the way, Gao Yanshou did not forget to send his Qingqi to the front to investigate the situation.
And luckily...
On the second day of the journey, I got news that Anshi City had been attacked by the Tang army for a whole day, but it had not fallen!
Anshi City did not fall!!!!
Even though it's embarrassing...
But Gao Yanshou had to admit that he was overjoyed instantly when he heard the news, and his excited mind went blank.
Isn't the Tang army invincible? Why hasn't Anshi City been captured yet? This won't work either!
Although he tried hard to warn himself not to bloat, Gao Yanshou still couldn't suppress words like this surging deep in his heart.
However, Gao Yanshou spread this news throughout the army, and in an instant...
The whole army rejoices!
Morale is boosted.
Originally, Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen were very surprised that Anshi City had not fallen. Now, coupled with the boost in military morale, their confidence suddenly increased.
Halfway through the journey, Gao Huizhen even started to complain about the weather...
After all, the biggest worry - Anshi City would fall directly, and the Tang army was waiting for the enemy - this possibility was eliminated, and I naturally felt a lot more relaxed.
However, when Gao Huizhen said this, Gao Yanshou frowned and did not relax along with Gao Huizhen. Instead, he said very vigilantly, "Don't take it lightly. The Han people have always been cunning in their military use. If they take advantage of it, how can we wait?"
Not dangerous?"
When Gao Yanshou said this, Gao Huizhen on the side suddenly laughed,
"Brother, please don't let others gain prestige! We, Goguryeo, have always been like this. As long as Anshi City remains intact, who can really destroy us? Tang Jun... Huh, the Han people have many strange things. It's not just a day or two. Is it possible to achieve a lot?"
With grenades, cement, and those airships, will they be invincible?"
"No……"
Gao Yanshou suddenly realized that this little brother was in a good mood, so he had to say seriously, "What you said is so stupid! The Han people today are different from the past. When have you ever seen the Han Dynasty expand overseas?"
"I've heard that even the Romans fell into their hands when fighting for territory overseas!"
"What? Luo..."
Gao Huizhen was originally very relaxed. After all, his psychological support was still alive, so of course there was nothing to fear. But now Gao Yanshou mentioned Rome...
Gao Huizhen couldn't help but panic. Originally, Goguryeo was also a very proud country. But since it received assistance from Rome in the past two years, everyone in Goguryeo respected Rome and regarded it as an invincible power.
When Gao Yanshou said these words at this moment, it was somewhat shocking!
