Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3427 Despicable Remains
Thinking back to the time when Yuan Gai Suwen killed King Rongliu, hijacked King Baozang, and consolidated the military and political power of Goguryeo in one person, who would dare not refuse to follow the power of the world, Jian Mou Cen felt hot in his heart.

He felt that it would be difficult to order the world even if he had the seal of the Chuan Kingdom in his hand. After all, there were more or less suspicions of "doves occupying the magpie's nest", but if he supported Gao Anshun as king and restored the country under his name, he would definitely be defeated. This made the remnants of Goguryeo look forward to the situation. At that time, he would control Gao Anshun and support him as a puppet, while he would seize the military and political power.

How do the Han people say it?Strange goods to live in...

Who doesn't have a heart to strive for the top?

Ahead, the soldiers had already brought Gao Anshun with his hands bound. In the past, the noble and gorgeous prince of the country was as rich as jade, but now he was unkempt and embarrassed.

Seeing Jian Mou Cen, Gao Anshun's anti-dirty handsome face twitched a few times, and said dejectedly: "I thought I was robbed by robbers, but it turned out that the general was in front of me."

Jian Mucen smiled slightly, and was very happy with this person's stupid behavior of knowing that he would die but still showing off his tongue. If you hit back, you will suffer a big loss at some point.

He brushed off his robe, straightened his crown, and bowed to the ground, respectfully said: "The last general, Jian Mu Cen, see Your Highness the Prince!"

The cronies around him also knelt on one knee and said in unison: "See Your Highness the Prince!"

Gao Anshun, whose hands were still bound, was a little confused...

He is a descendant of the Gao clan and the concubine of King Treasure Treasure. Although Yuan Pure Land is his uncle and Jian Mou Cen is Yuan Gai Su Wen's lackey, after all, Yuan Gai Su Wen slaughtered the royal family before and even married himself into the palace. All the sons born to my younger sister were killed, how could he be tolerated as a relative?

After finally sneaking into the secret passage, he dared not get out from the secret passage, for fear of being noticed by the soldiers in the city.Fortunately, Tang Jun went and returned, and captured the city wall in one fell swoop and entered the city. Only then did he find a chance to escape.Unexpectedly, just taking advantage of the chaos of war, he was captured by Jian Mou Cen. He knew that he would die, so he dared to sneer.

But I don't want Jian Mou Cen to be very respectful, and he keeps admitting that he is His Royal Highness, but isn't the current king already turned into Yuan Gai Suwen?
He raised his head and glanced at Ping Rang City in the distance. The wind and snow covered his eyes, leaving only a vague outline of the majestic city.

"Pingrang City...has it finally fallen?"

If Ping Rang City had not fallen and Yuan Gai Suwen had died, the sword Mu Cen would not have appeared here, let alone be respectful to him.

Jian Mucen got up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is still building, but it won't last long... Goguryeo is about to fall, and His Royal Highness wants to make some achievements to live up to this royal blood?"

Gao Anshun was stunned: "I don't have the strength to restrain a chicken, and my moral writing is also ordinary. In this troubled world, how can I have the ability to do anything?"

Jian Mou Cen said: "Your Highness is of royal blood, you only need to climb up and shout, and there will be a crowd of people who will respond, and the restoration of the country will be easy! The Tang people are cruel, invade my homeland, and destroy my country. Any Goguryeo person should hold hatred in his heart and be determined Revenge! If His Highness is willing to call on the heroes to seek the restoration of the country, we are willing to follow His Highness, go through fire and water, and die!"

"I will go through fire and water, and I will die!"

"Don't give up!"

The nearby soldiers raised their arms and shouted wildly. They didn't know Jian Mou Cen's plan, but they were all Yuan Gai Suwen's confidantes. They were very strong-willed and would not collapse because of the desperate situation in front of them. Instead, they were all passionate and willing to be generous. to die!
Gao Anshun was at a loss, he was already in a daze, he just waved his hands again and again: "How does this make it, how does this make it..."

Although, as the concubine of the Treasure King, he has the possibility of inheriting the throne in name, but since the day he made his voice, he never dreamed that one day he would be able to ascend to that position. Although the country is dead now, it is probably only Jian Mou. Cen's puppet.

But that is also the king of Goguryeo...

Seeing that Gao Anshun just waved his hand blindly, Jian Moucen didn't resolutely refuse. He understood and said loudly: "This matter can be discussed in a long-term way. This place is not a place to stay for a long time. Let's flee Pingrang City immediately and go to the border of Baekje. I implore King Yici to send troops to help."

Gao Anshun also nodded and said: "That's right! If the country is ruined and the family is destroyed, we should try to restore the country with our useful body, and we can't easily ruin it in the hands of the Tang people!"

Jian Mucen immediately ordered: "Your Highness has an order, the whole army set off!"

Give Gao Anshun a step up, take his status as a "leader", choose one place to settle after taking the border of Baekje, presumably his own plan will become...

"Here!"

More than a thousand soldiers promised loudly, and then immediately set off, rushing southward against the wind and snow.

*****
"boom!"

There was an earth-shattering sound, and a cannonball just hit the main entrance of the palace. The palace gate above the white marble steps was instantly torn apart, turned into debris and mixed with the wind and snow and shot in all directions. Dozens of guards in front of the gate were shocked by the sudden air The waves blasted people on their backs, screaming again and again.

"Bang bang bang!"

In the wind and snow, hundreds of muskets lined up, projectiles and gunpowder smoke sprayed from the muzzles, hiding the figure of Tang Jun like a puff of white mist, and the Goguryeo guards in front of the palace gate were like autumn wheat. fell to the ground.

When a projectile hits the human body, it will basically not cause penetrating injuries. Similarly, if it does not hit a vital point for a while, it will not die.However, this kind of crying that cannot be cured and can only wait for death is enough to make the tough guy like iron and stone unbearable. The Goguryeo soldiers fell to the ground and wailed.

"Come on Thunderbolt, let's rush in together!"

Su Dingfang has already come to the gate of the palace, personally directing the battle, and vowed to break through the palace gate in the shortest time and win the first battle.

The scouts came to report that Goguryeo's cavalry who had gone north to chase the Tang army had returned frantically, and they might appear outside Pingrang City before tomorrow morning.

Time is running out, if the palace cannot be captured today and Yuan Gai Su Wen is annihilated, the navy will face the situation of being attacked from both sides, and has to give up the victory at hand and withdraw from Ping Rang City to preserve its strength.

"Here!"

The soldiers under his command were also jealous, the city walls were breached by them, but it was rare to make an inch in front of the palace. How could the always proud navy soldiers bear it?

At that moment, dozens of people ignited the thunder and threw it towards the collapsed palace gate.

"boom boom"

A burst of fireworks soared into the sky, and dozens of thunderbolts landed and exploded almost indiscriminately in front of the narrow palace gate. The violent shock wave completely shattered and flew the entire palace gate. Goguryeo soldiers shrouded in it.

Afterwards, heavy infantry in heavy armor and holding horizontal knives charged forward and charged towards the palace gate.These strong and sharp soldiers were the most brave, rushing up like a battering ram, and ruthlessly chopped open the Goguryeo army at the palace gate, tearing a gap in its defensive formation.

Countless soldiers rushed forward along this gap, smashing the defenses around the palace in one fell swoop, and entered the palace.

The Goguryeo Imperial Guard suffered heavy casualties and could not stop the fierce offensive of the Tang army. They could only fight and retreat, retreated into the palace, and continued to fight the Tang army to the death relying on the favorable location.

These imperial guards are the elite of Yuan Gai Suwen's direct lineage, they may not be as brave as the "Wang Zhuan Army", but compared to the troops guarding the city before, they are indeed very fierce.

This has also increased the casualties of the navy. After all, the palace is full of rockery gardens, houses and palaces. The Goguryeo army is familiar with the terrain here. Facing the rashly entering Tang army, it adopts a guerrilla strategy. The wandering attack made Tang Jun tired of coping.

Su Dingfang made a prompt decision: "Set up the cannon at the main gate of the palace, damn it!"

"Here!"

The lieutenant under his command hurried down to convey the military order, mobilized all the cannons, aimed the cannons too high into the palace, and fired the cannons.

"boom boom"

Kerosene bombs were used in large quantities before, and there are not many left, and there are not many lead bullets left. The soldiers simply don't care about any shells, as long as they can be stuffed into the barrel, they will be stuffed in.Countless shells fell from the sky, blowing up this centuries-old royal palace to the point of collapse and fireworks.

Generally speaking, in this kind of war to destroy the country, it is still necessary to take care of the emotions of its citizens. It is not allowed to massacre, set fire to looting, or destroy its ancestral temple.Otherwise, if the massacre is too much, it will easily arouse the hatred of the people to resist, and even if they can capture the country, they will encounter obstacles in the future rule.
