The speed of the 100,000 Tang Dynasty border troops was indeed very fast.
In just one day, fifteen trebuchets and twenty siege engines were built.
The early morning mist enveloped the royal capital of Silla.
The sun broke through the mist, revealing a trace of golden light.
Xu Shiji personally led the army outside the capital of Silla.
On the city tower, Tuo She led a group of Goguryeo generals, staring intently at the Tang border troops in front.
They knew that the Tang border troops would attack the city soon, but they did not expect it to be so fast.
It's only the second day, and these people are about to attack the city?
It seemed that Zhao Chen's death made them extremely angry, so they were so anxious to seek revenge on themselves.
"I'll go down to meet them. You guys can guard the tower here." Tuo She looked at the generals behind him.
"yes!"
"General, kill them all without leaving a single piece of armor behind." All the generals spoke one after another.
Tuo She took his two swords and went down to the city wall. The generals behind him who were originally full of admiration suddenly showed contempt.
They looked down upon Tushe, a reckless man, at all.
If it wasn't for his brute strength that Yeon Gaesumun took seriously, he would still be responsible for guarding the city.
"If Zhao Chen hadn't died, how could he be so arrogant?" A Goguryeo general asked dissatisfied.
"Isn't that right? When Zhao Chen was guarding the south gate of the new city, he didn't even dare to fart, but now he thinks he can do it?"
"Why didn't Zhao Chen beat him to death that day? Seeing how arrogant he was, people who didn't know would have thought he was invincible!"
"Forget it, who knows that he is really capable? I guess a few of the generals of the Tang Dynasty's border army will die today."
"That's right. I hope he can kill a few more generals of the Tang Dynasty and scare them hard."
…
Under the city.
Tuo She led a team of one hundred people out of the city.
The war horses neighed, the camels reined in their horses, and looked at the Tang border troops in front.
Tuo She glanced at the generals of the Tang Dynasty's frontier army, and suddenly his pupils shrank slightly.
He actually saw Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu among the generals of the Tang Dynasty.
How are they still alive?
Could it be that Zhao Chen is also alive?
Tuo She's heart suddenly trembled, and his eyes once again glanced at the generals of the Tang Dynasty's border army.
Fortunately, he found no trace of Zhao Chen in the crowd.
Tuo She believed that if Zhao Chen was still alive, he would definitely appear here.
Tuoshe's nervous mood was finally relieved.
"Everyone on the other side, listen, I am the Goguryeo general Tuo She. Let the people you let come out and die quickly." Tuo Archer raised his two swords and shouted to the opposite side.
Xu Shiji frowned slightly.
He also knew about this Tuo She's deeds. In Xincheng, he killed thirteen Silla generals, and even Qin Huaiyu almost died at the hands of this guy twice.
"Commander Xu, this camel shot is extremely brave. Neither Huaiyu nor I can match him." Cheng Chumo and Xu Shiji were talking about how terrifying the camel shot was.
Zhao Chen did not come here today, but asked them to follow Xu Shiji's arrangements to attack the city.
But this camel shot standing in front of the formation was like a tough guy.
"Who dares to fight?" Xu Shiji certainly knew how terrifying Tuo She was, but they had to defeat this challenging Tuo She first.
The generals also heard about the horror of camel shooting.
Even Qin Huaiyu is no match for him, and people like him are probably even less likely to defeat Tuo She.
"Commander, I'll go." Pei Xingjian, the young general behind him, drove his horse forward and said to Xu Shiji.
Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu both looked at Pei Xingjian
.
I saw him holding a spear, carrying a long bow at his waist, wearing silver armor, and sitting down on a very strong horse.
Although it was the first time they noticed this person, the two of them could not help but sigh that this person looked extraordinary.
"This general is..." Cheng Chumo looked at Xu Shiji.
Xu Shiji also didn't expect that Pei Xingjian would stand up and ask for a fight.
He originally wanted to introduce Pei Xingjian to Zhao Chen yesterday, but Zhao Chen was obviously not very interested yesterday.
Moreover, Pei Xingjian did not achieve many great achievements under his command.
If you rashly introduce him to Zhao Chen, I am afraid that Zhao Chen will not take him seriously.
Just now...
"This is Pei Xingjian, a student of General Su Dingfang." Xu Shiji introduced Pei Xingjian with a smile.
"I seem to have an impression." Cheng Chumo nodded, and then looked at Pei Xingjian suspiciously: "This camel shot is brave enough to be worthy of any man. Even we are no match for him."
"Only in the hands of His Highness the King of Han, Tuo She was defeated miserably."
"Are you sure you want to go up and fight him?"
"Thank you, General Cheng, for reminding me that I am willing to fight with you." Pei Xingjian did not hesitate at all.
Ever since Xu Shiji told him that he would introduce himself to the King of Han, Pei Xingjian thought that he had done nothing in the frontier army.
Even the King of Han killed him for the sake of Military Advisor Xu and his master Su Dingfang.
Then it would be difficult for me to reuse everything.
But if he killed this camel shot by himself, things would be different.
Moreover, Pei Xingjian has a certain degree of confidence in his own skills.
"Well, General Pei is so courageous. It is our great fortune." Cheng Chumo was very pleased with Pei Xingjian's attitude.
Not all generals of the Tang Dynasty must be invincible, but their courage in fighting the enemy must not be slackened at all.
"Commander Xu, I think General Pei is very brave, so why not let him go into battle, and I will raid the formation for General Pei." Cheng Chumo looked at Xu Shiji again.
What can Xu Shiji do?
Tuoshe went to war. It was hard to find someone under his command who was willing to fight, but he still didn't agree?
Besides, with so many things happening in the Tang Dynasty, we can’t let the King of Han handle everything himself!
"Keep the promise, since you ask for it, then I naturally agree."
"But you must be careful not to underestimate the enemy. If you are defeated, just retreat." Xu Shiji nodded in agreement.
What's even more rare is that as long as Pei Xingjian feels that he is no match for Tuo She, he can retreat immediately.
"Yes!" Pei Xingjian agreed without saying a word.
He bowed his hands to Cheng Chumo and saluted, then led his troops and rushed towards the battlefield.
"I'll go take a look too!" Cheng Chumo drove his horse forward.
…
Under the castle of the King of Silla.
The soldiers on both sides were at war with each other. Tuo She looked at the leader in front of him and it turned out to be a young boy, with a look of disdain on his face.
A boy was sent from the opposite side, but he was sent to his door to be killed.
Tuo She even believed that this also showed from the side that Zhao Chen was really dead.
Otherwise, the other party would send a brat to die even though they knew how powerful they were.
"Boy, are you here to die?" Tuo She laughed at Pei Xingjian.
Pei Xingjian said nothing, but looked at Tuo She with an expressionless expression.
"Why, did you send a mute here?" Tuo She had a sarcastic look on his face and quietly clenched the two knives in his hands.
He planned to take advantage of Pei Xingjian's unpreparedness and rush forward, killing him.
"Tuo She, I want your life!" Pei Xingjian held a spear in his hand and slowly pointed the gun head at Tuo She in front of him.
