Yeon Gaesumun did not continue to ask Tuo She about what happened on the battlefield just now.
He also knew that in this state, he couldn't ask anything.
He simply waved his hand and signaled Tuoshe to leave.
As soon as Tuoshe left, Yuengai Suwen immediately summoned his generals to discuss matters.
All the generals also knew about Tuo She's lucky escape with his life on the battlefield just now.
If many people hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they really wouldn't believe it was true. ??
That was Tushe, the most valiant general among them besides Yeon Gaesumun.
Previously, he killed thirteen generals of Xincheng in a row, which shocked the world.
Even Qin Huaiyu of the Tang Dynasty, if he hadn't escaped quickly enough, he might have been killed by Tuo She in the same way.
But Tuo She almost died in the hands of Zhao Chen today.
They just saw Tuo She's dejected look, as if he hadn't recovered from the battle just now.
"Commander, why did Zhao Chen suddenly come to Xincheng?"
"How could the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty allow him to come here?"
"Or is it that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is preparing to send troops to support Silla?" a general asked, and asked three questions in a row.
The expressions of the other generals who were listening changed drastically.
Goguryeo dared to use force against Silla in such a high-profile manner because the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would not send troops to support so easily.
Although I don’t know how the Japanese country did it, there is indeed no sign of mobilization of the Tang Dynasty’s border troops.
Moreover, the granary of the Tang border army was burned down.
This is the reason why they dare to send troops.
But what people didn't expect was that the majestic King Han of the Tang Dynasty actually appeared in this small new city.
Although they didn't know Zhao Chen well enough, they knew that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty regarded Zhao Chen, the King of Han, as extremely important.
How could he be allowed to appear alone in this new city?
battlefield.
So naturally some people will be worried that Zhao Chen appears and brings a large number of reinforcements.
But if this is really the case, what should they do?
Many Goguryeo generals looked worried.
Naturally, they didn't have any worries about dealing with Silla, but if they had to fight against Datang...
Yeon Gaesumun glanced over, was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "First of all, what I want to tell you is that the Tang Dynasty did not mobilize a border army to intervene in Silla's affairs."
"Zhao Chen is here just because of Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu."
"So, there is no need for you to panic."
Yeon Gaesumun's words immediately reassured everyone who was a little worried at first.
As long as the Tang Dynasty would not mobilize frontier troops to enter Silla, they had nothing to worry about.
Although Zhao Chen is powerful, no matter how powerful he is, he is just an ordinary man's courage.
He has an army of hundreds of thousands on his side, and one person can drown Zhao Chen with just a spit of spit.
The tense expressions on everyone's faces relaxed a lot.
Then someone said: "Commander, this Zhao Chen is a prince that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty cares about very much. If the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty knew that he was here, he might find a way to mobilize the Tang Dynasty's border troops."
"Should we hurry up and capture the new city before this happens?"
"Yes, yes, I also heard that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty loved Zhao Chen so much that he even deposed two princes for him. If the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty knew that Zhao Chen was here, he might mobilize the border troops.
Come here." There were generals nearby who quickly agreed.
The rest of the people also nodded.
At this time, they could only capture the new city before Datang's border troops mobilized.
Even if the Tang Dynasty's border troops arrive by then, they will seize the new city and cooperate with the Japanese who have already garrisoned in Baekje. They will not be left without resistance in the face of the Tang Dynasty.
"Yes, this is exactly why I called everyone here." Yeon Gaesumun nodded.
Now Zhao Chen appears in Xincheng.
No matter what the reason is, Yeon Gaesumun will try his best to win the new city as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if there is a delay, there is no guarantee that that bastard Zhao Chen will not come up with some conspiracy to plot against him.
Yuan Gaisuwen didn't worry about others, but when facing Zhao Chen, he always felt a little uneasy.
"When Zhao Chen appears, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will definitely not sit idly by and watch. But even if the Tang Dynasty's court knew that it would take at least two months before they send out the border troops."
"This is definitely enough for us to win the new city."
"So, tomorrow, the army will begin to attack the city." .??.??
"First let the surrendered generals of the new city surrender their troops to fight, and let them consume the superior strength of the city's defenders."
"When they are almost dead and the opponent's endurance has been depleted, our Goguryeo army will attack the city again."
"It's impossible for them to hold on." Yeon Gaesowun's voice sounded slowly.
Knowing that Yeon Gaesumun planned to send the troops from the new city to fight, all the generals had relaxed expressions on their faces.
They now have nearly 50,000 surrendered troops left, and the garrison in the city is less than 50,000.
Although it is difficult to attack a city, no matter how difficult it is, with these 50,000 surrendered troops, it is still possible to capture the 10,000 people on the opposite side.
If the opponent loses one, there will be one less.
After continuously defending the city, the opponent must be out of manpower and horses. If he encounters his main force waiting for work, are he afraid that he will not be able to defeat the opponent?
"Commander is wise, in this case, even if Zhao Chen has great ability,
We can't defend this city." A general flattered him.
"Hahaha, no matter how wise I am, I still need your help."
"Generals, get moving and supervise the battle of surrendering troops tomorrow." Yeon Gaesumun said with a smile.
"Yes!" The generals responded in the camp.
…
The Tang Dynasty border army camp at this moment.
Xu Shiji was inspecting the defense situation of the camp when suddenly soldiers from the Xuanjia Army appeared in front of him.
Xu Shiji had met Zhao Chen before.
Seeing him appear here, I immediately thought that something happened to Zhao Chen and hurriedly asked: "Where is the King of Han?"
"Military advisor, the King of Han asked me to deliver an order." said the soldier of Xuanjia Army.
"Send the order?" Xu Shiji was stunned for a moment, then he didn't think much and bowed slightly.
"Your Majesty has a decree, and the one hundred thousand soldiers of the border army should rush to Silla immediately to support the new city. There must be no mistake." What the soldiers of the Xuanjia Army held in their hands turned out to be an imperial edict.
Xu Shiji was stunned after that.
Your Majesty has a decree?
Where did Zhao Chen get the imperial edict?
If he had an imperial edict, he wouldn't have brought it out at the beginning, but would have waited until this time?
Xu Shiji immediately realized that this imperial edict was not issued by the emperor, but was written privately by Zhao Chen.
Fabricating an imperial edict is a capital crime of beheading!
Zhao Chen is crazy?
"Military advisor, receive the edict!" The soldiers of the Xuanjia Army handed the imperial edict to Xu Shiji.
Xu Shiji did not reach out immediately. He knew that once he accepted this imperial edict, Zhao Chen would have no way out.
But Zhao Chen obviously encountered difficulties when he gave him this imperial edict.
