Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3422

Yuangai Suwen's imperial guards are also like the Tang army's heavy infantry, all wearing heavy armor and holding long halberds. They are tall, brave and capable.The Tang army's muskets and crossbows were difficult to kill the enemy from a distance, and simply using thunder to attack was too costly. The two sides once fought fiercely in the square outside the palace, nearby residential farmhouses, government offices, etc., and fought repeatedly. In the stalemate, casualties on both sides increased sharply.

For the Goguryeo side, time is the most favorable time for them. The main force of the Tang army retreated in a large scale. As long as the cavalry elite they went to pursue returned, and then cooperated internally and externally, this Tang army navy could be wiped out.And Tang Jun obviously knew this situation, so he spared no effort. As soon as he came up, he attacked like a storm, and the battle became fierce in an instant.

The two sides fought desperately around the palace, muskets blared, thunder roared, and arrows flew like locusts, turning this important town in Liaodong into a tragic mill of flesh and blood.

……

In the palace, Yuan Gai Suwen finally woke up from the dizziness, but he still had a splitting headache.

He rubbed his temples, propped himself up behind the desk, and listened to the reports of the civil and military officials on the battle situation in the city. He yelled angrily, and slapped his palm on the table: "Shameless!"

He only knew that this move must be framed by the Tang army to cover up the fact that it massacred civilians. It was really shameless, but he didn't realize that the behavior of the Goguryeo defenders to drive the civilians away and try to attack the Tang army was ten times and a hundred times more shameful...

The minister was heartbroken: "Goguryeo is in the universe. It's a pity that although Confucius and other great sages were born in the land of Goguryeo, they failed to preach in the country of Goguryeo, let alone benefit the descendants of Goguryeo. If Confucius hadn't left his hometown and traveled around the world to spread the word Confucianism, how can the Han revitalize the clothes of China and surpass all other races in the world? It's a pity, it's a pity!"

A white-haired old official echoed: "God will not bless me, Goguryeo! The Han people are like wolves, invading everywhere. If the city is destroyed today, the descendants of my Goguryeo will be Han slaves for the rest of their lives! Think of me as the Holy King of Dongming. In the beginning, I rose up in Xuantu County, my reputation spread throughout the world, and my armor was mighty enough to subdue Yu Nei, how could I have fallen to where I am today? The spirits of the ancestors in the sky, I’m afraid they hate me for not fighting, and they can’t see clearly!”

This is a magical country with a tradition of being shameless. They are well versed in the belief of "speaking loudly and rightly". They believe that as long as anything is said over and over again, even if it is false, it will become a fact. Even if others don't believe it, they will believe it. .

To this day, many people in the Goguryeo government and the opposition are advocating that the founders of the Han Dynasty are Goguryeo people. They have been advocating tirelessly all day long, and those disciples and grandchildren have listened to it for a long time, and they are convinced...

……

Yuan Gai Suwen's eyelids twitched wildly, and the anger in his heart rose, if it wasn't for the fact that the enemy was at present and in danger, these two old men would have to be pushed out of the palace gate and made a public show!
Are these two bastards mocking Lao Tzu for going against the sky and not even protecting his ancestors?

But having said that, the Dongming Holy King Gao Zhumeng is the first ancestor of the Gao clan, and now he has slaughtered the Gao clan, leaving no one behind, cutting off the roots and cutting off the blood heirs. If the soul really ordered it, he would indeed curse himself This traitor...

Holding back his anger, Yuan Gai Su Wen kept his face sullen, endured his headache and said, "Where is Jian Mou Cen?"

Before the words fell, there was a rush of footsteps outside. Jian Mou Cen, who was wearing a bright armor before, threw away his helmet and armor, entered the hall in a mess, knelt on the ground with a "plop", and cried bitterly: "Your Majesty, the enemy The army is powerful, the attack is fierce, the defenders can't resist, the enemy has already broken through to the outside of the palace, the palace is in danger, and the final sentence is a death penalty!"

The ministers exclaimed.

The sound of guns and cannons outside, and the sound of shouting and killing is also near and far away. Although he knows that the situation is precarious, but after all, the steel knife has not yet been tightened, and the sense of crisis is not enough.Hearing Jian Mou Cen's words at this moment, he just realized that the Tang army has already arrived outside the palace, and they may rush into the palace in the next moment.

Qiqi, the civil servants and generals in the palace, took a deep breath and exchanged colors with each other. This, this... Goguryeo is about to perish!

Both of them saw some hesitation in each other's eyes.

There is nothing timid about it. The Tang army can kill the defenders and civilians, but even if they break through the palace, they will not slaughter them one by one. After all, such a big Goguryeo was overthrown by the Tang army. government affairs?

Of course, the premise of getting Tang Jun's forgiveness is that you must not mix with Yuan Gai Su Wen, the more loyal you are to Yuan Gai Su Wen, the faster you will die.

Because when Tang Jun wins, it is bound to be Pao Ze who is at his side going to Tang Jun to betray Yuan Gai Suwen's cronies one by one, so as to ask for credit...

However, in front of Yuan Gai Su Wen, no one dared to reveal the slightest thought in his heart. Yuan Gai Su Wen's violence was ten times stronger than that of Tang Jun for these ministers.

Yuan Gai Suwen didn't bother to figure out whether these ministers were loyal or not. He stabilized his mind and asked: "The solitary imperial guards are brave and good at fighting. Even if they can't defeat a powerful enemy, is it possible to delay their offensive? As long as they can hold on for two days, When the army from the north strikes back to help, we will be able to completely annihilate the Tang army!"

These words were so decisive that all the officials in the hall nodded their heads in unison, and their morale rose somewhat.It's just that Yuan Gai Suwen felt so regretful that his intestines were green.

Hundreds of thousands of Tang troops came in full force, and even the emperor of the Tang Dynasty personally marched. With such a mighty momentum, Ping Rang City was lucky to be able to preserve it. Why did I lose my head again and think that I should chase after him? , to boost his reputation?
Although the Tang army did not retreat in disorder, even if those cavalry pursued and killed them, it would be difficult to get a good chance to kill the Tang army. Instead, they were more like a guard, escorting the Tang army back to the country along the way...

The most serious thing was that all the elite troops in the city were dispatched, leaving the city empty of troops. As a result, the Tang Army Navy seized a good opportunity and attacked Goguryeo in a big way, hitting Goguryeo's weakness all at once.

In particular, the enemy's kerosene bombs burned down the ordnance and armor in "Little Chang'an", so that even if Pingrang City organized an army to participate in the defense, it could not exert its combat power due to the lack of weapons and armor.What is the use of such an army participating in the defense, except to fill the heads of the Tang army?
For the current plan, we can only rely on our own imperial guards and those mobs who risk their lives to resist the Tang army, to be able to stick to the palace and prevent the Tang army from making any further advances.Only by sticking to the north until the army returns to help can the defeat be turned around and defeat turned into victory.

The success or failure of life and death can no longer be in his hands. He can only resign himself to fate and see if God can take care of him, the supreme king of Goguryeo.

However, before he could sort out his thoughts, he felt a flash of fire in front of his eyes, and then an earth-shattering sound rang in his ears, the whole hall was shaken, and all moving objects were displaced, especially teacups, teacups, etc. The ground crackled, and several old and frail ministers fell to the ground one by one, screaming and screaming in fright, rolling their shit.

"boom!"

There was another shock, and the windows of the main hall were pierced by debris such as bricks, stones, broken wood, etc., and many of them shot directly into the hall, scaring everyone to lie on the ground.

Yuan Gai Su Wen was also dragged up from the bed by Jian Mou Cen and his servants, and pressed down on the ground to cover himself.

Yuan Gai Su Wen was extremely ashamed and angry, thinking that he was the majestic king of Goguryeo, the majestic king of the world in his hands, but now he is in such a predicament, it is simply ridiculous in the world!
He kicked Mu Cen away with one foot, and said angrily: "You are as cowardly as a mouse! Why don't you go outside and see what's going on?"

"Here!"

Jian Mucen quickly got up, stooped to the outside of the hall, and turned around in a moment.Just at this time, there was another tremor and the ground shook. Jian Mu Cen, who had just walked to the door, fell and fell, and crawled to Yuan Gai Suwen, crying: "Your Majesty, what a big deal! Not good! The Tang army is attacking with artillery, but the imperial guards can't stop it. Now the palace is full of fires, and the Tang army has already attacked!"

"what!"

When the ministers in the palace heard this, how could they care about Yuan Gai Su Wenzhi's cruelty and tyranny?One by one, as if possessed by the God of War, regardless of their bravery, they stood up one after another.

"Your Majesty, although your subjects have no power to restrain chickens, how can you shrink back here when the country is facing a crisis? You should die together with a powerful enemy!"

"That's right, killing one is enough money, killing two and earning one!"

All the people spoke impassioned words, kept their feet on the ground, rushed out of the hall with cats on their waists, and went to the Tang army to kneel down and beg for mercy.

How could Yuan Gai Su Wen not know the thoughts of these people?He was so angry that a mouthful of old blood spewed out, and the dullness in his chest eased slightly. He struggled to get up and went to the wall and drew out his sword. His eyes were about to burst into tears, and he said loudly: "When you live or die, don't imitate those people who are greedy for life and afraid of death. A little courage, and follow me to kill the enemy!"
