Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3428
When Hou Junji led a large army to capture Gaochang City, he ordered the massacre of the city for three days, looting the whole city, and because of this, there was a conflict with Fang Jun...

But right now, Su Dingfang couldn't care less.

If the palace cannot be captured as soon as possible, Yuan Gaisuwen is captured alive or killed, and Goguryeo is completely destroyed. Then when the cavalry from the north returns to help, the navy will be trapped in the city, and there is no way out. ", Su Dingfang didn't want to be that "turtle".

Seeing that the feats of the world are about to be achieved, and the powerful enemies on the northeast border of the empire have disappeared since then, how can they cherish their own name and let them revive?
Su Dingfang threw everything away, preferring to be impeached by the censor in the future, which would greatly reduce his meritorious deeds, and would rather destroy Goguryeo completely.

Numerous cannons spit out flames and smoke, creating an extremely weird scene outside the palace. A huge ring of gunpowder smoke condensed from the palace is more than a hundred feet away, and the ring-shaped smoke lingers for a long time. A "trap" generally locks up the palace tightly.

The royal palace inside the "trap" is already filled with fireworks, the walls are down and the houses are crumbling, and there are corpses everywhere, which is too horrible to look at.

The navy soldiers rushed into the palace, and there were ruins everywhere. Countless Goguryeo soldiers were either blown up by shells, hit by shrapnel, or crushed to death by the collapsed walls of houses. Outside, it was full of tragic screams.

In ordinary times, such a scene comparable to hell is enough to make even the most ruthless tough guy feel compassion, but on the battlefield, either you die or I die. The more miserable the enemy is, the safer you will be.

As for the treatment, it is necessary that these Goguryeo soldiers who are seriously injured can survive the complete victory of the Tang army...

Inside the hall, there was a mess.

A solid cannonball happened to land on the roof of the main hall. The heavy projectile easily smashed through the roof. The glazed tiles, rafters, beams, bricks and stones were smashed into pieces and splashed everywhere. The projectile hit the main hall even more. The floor tiles on the ground smashed the hard floor tiles to pieces, sinking into a big pit, which was shocking to look at.

Yuan Gai Su Wen sat on the throne, his usually majestic and solemn face was completely grayed out, his eyes stared blankly at the big crater embedded with bullets, as if he had no focus.

Who would have thought that he planned his whole life and finally ascended to the supreme throne of the King of Goguryeo, but in the blink of an eye he suffered the most painful blow in his life...

Most of Goguryeo's territory has fallen under the iron hooves of the Tang army. The city of Pingrang has been destroyed, the palace has been captured, and the soldiers of the Tang army have already charged outside the gate.

What kind of cruel fate is this?
At the peak of his life, he slipped suddenly and fell into the abyss. The strong drop made Yuan Gai Suwen's chest dull, and he spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Kings!"

"Homeowner!"

The cronies and dead soldiers around him exclaimed and rushed forward.

"It's okay!"

Yuan Gai Suwen wiped the blood stains at the corners of his mouth, looked down at the pool of blood under his feet, felt a little more comfortable in his heart, raised his head and smiled at the people around him, and slowly said: "This is the end of the matter, there is no way to recover, alone Resigned."

"Your Majesty, no!"

"We swear to protect the king to break through the siege. We only need to break out of the siege and rush out of the city. With the king's supreme prestige and great talent, why worry about not being able to make a comeback and succeed in restoring the country?"

"We will defend the king to the death!"

Dozens of confidantes and dead men in the hall all knelt on one knee, shouting in unison, tragic and enthusiastic!

"Ha ha!"

Yuan Gai Suwen laughed loudly, looking very happy, and said loudly: "Although Gu has only been the king of Goguryeo for a few days, in the history of Goguryeo, there is still a place for Gu! There are still loyal people like you guarding around, this life is enough, what more can I ask for?!"

He raised his hand to stop these people from persuading him to break through, and said slowly: "Gu has always been powerful, arrogant and conceited, and has never been willing to be under others, so how can he be willing to do that pointless struggle right now, causing his body to be mutilated?" , Embarrassed? If you accidentally fall into the hands of the Tang people, you will suffer all kinds of humiliation, I will not do it!"

He threw the sword on the table, stood up, raised his head slightly, and looked at the hole in the roof that was smashed by the bullets. There were snowflakes falling in and falling on the hall, which was extremely cold and lonely.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh: "Between life and death, I have long been broken. I just wish I could revitalize my country, protect the rivers and mountains, and instruct the Tang people to invade my homeland and enslave my people. After thousands of years, if there is still the blood of the Goguryeo clan If I exist in the world, I am afraid that I will also hate me, the king of subjugation."

Life or death, he really doesn't care.

Although his life is not too long, but he has always stood at the pinnacle of his life, holding the authority to guide the country, even if he died at this moment, so what?It's just that when a person is about to die, what he cares most about is the name behind him.It is conceivable that today, when the country is ruined and the family is destroyed, Yuan Gai Suwen will become a sinner of Goguryeo, and even his body will be nailed to a copper pillar, and he will be scolded and whipped by future generations to vent his anger.

However, as he said just now, the matter has come to this point, so what can I do?

He didn't have the skill to bring Goguryeo back to life, nor did he have the energy and courage to do it, it was too difficult and too vague.

He was tired and gave up too.

After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice: "All of you are my confidantes. I regard them as brothers and sisters. You must not accompany me to die in this palace. Remember my words and live in the south to find the third son. Help him recover his country!"

Everyone in the hall paused, and could only respond: "Here!"

Yuan Gai Suwen nodded, and then suddenly, he turned around and picked up the sword on the table, holding the hilt in one hand and the scabbard in the other, and pulled out the sword with a "clang". Before returning to his senses, as soon as he raised his hand, the clear sword turned around his neck.

The sharp sword edge instantly cut through the blood vessels and trachea on the neck, and blood sputtered out like a fountain...

All the people in the hall were dumbfounded, they didn't expect Yuan Gai Suwen to be so decisive and ruthless, he said he would kill himself, he didn't even give everyone a chance to dissuade him, he really has been domineering all his life, even in death he wants to show his dominance character.

When they came to their senses, Yuan Gai Suwen's tall body fell backwards, and fell to the ground with a "bang", the sword in his hand was thrown out, and fell to the ground with a "clang lang lang".

"Kings!"

"Kings!"

Everyone let out a mournful cry, and rushed forward in unison, only to see Yuan Gai Suwen's eyes closed tightly, his face peaceful, only the blood gushing out from the deep sword wound on his neck, and his chest and abdomen heaved violently for a few times before he remained motionless , Already exasperated.

"Congratulations to the king!"

Seeing that Yuan Gai Su Wen was dead, everyone was deeply saddened, they all knelt down and shouted loudly.

When the soldiers and waiters outside the hall heard the sound, they already guessed the situation in the hall, and they also knelt down one after another, letting the heavy snow fall all over the world, and mournfully shouted: "Send off the king!"

The Goguryeo soldiers who were fighting the Tang army outside heard the endless shouts in the palace, and they seemed to have lost their souls suddenly. They threw away their weapons one after another, and just knelt in the snow, pausing for the first time, and let out a mournful voice. Call: "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Everyone in the world knows that Yuan Gai Suwen is violent and brutal, not a benevolent one, but for his confidants and direct descendants, he has unparalleled prestige.These elite and dead soldiers trained by him are all willing to shed their blood for him, regard him as the master, and will not change until death.

These soldiers have been trained for a long time, and the thought that has always been implemented is to be loyal to Yuan Gaisuwen alone. Whether it is the Gao family or Goguryeo, it has never been mentioned.

Knowing that Yuan Gai Su Wen was dead, his spiritual support instantly collapsed. What reason is there to fight Tang Jun to death?
The fierce battle came to a standstill almost instantly. Countless Goguryeo soldiers threw away their weapons, knelt down on the ground, shouted, and burst into tears.

The heavy snow like goose feathers fell from the sky, and fell to the world, covering the battlefield that was still in full swing before, and it was a vast expanse of whiteness.

Yuan Gai Suwen died.

Goguryeo, died.

*****
The battle in Pingrang City ended very happily. The moment news of Yuan Gaisuwen's death was heard in the palace, almost all Goguryeo soldiers put down their weapons and did not want to fight again.

On the contrary, the confidants of Yuan Gai Suwen in the palace saw that Yuan Gai Suwen was dead, each of them had the will to die, and desperately launched an attack on the Tang army who rushed into the palace, but in the end they were outnumbered and were quickly captured. After clearing and suppressing everything, the rest all knelt down and begged for surrender.

Su Dingfang stepped into the main hall of the palace under the guard of his own soldiers, saw Yuan Gai Suwen's body lying on the ground, leaned forward to examine it carefully, and asked if his body had been verified, and he couldn't help but sigh when he got a positive answer.

In this battle of the Eastern Expedition, His Majesty Li Er was very happy about it, but it was more because of the rise of Goguryeo in recent years that the Tang Dynasty faintly felt the threat of the northeast border, so the whole country was mobilized to fight. .

The reason why Yuangai Suwen was able to hold the power of Goguryeo, and even usurped the throne in the end, was because of his heroic talent and boldness, he could be called an outstanding person in the world.However, the reason for its defeat was also due to its outstanding talent. If Goguryeo hadn't gradually become stronger under his leadership, how could the Tang Dynasty have disregarded the domestic chaos and devoted all its power to the east?
The number of people's fate seems to be confused, but in fact, it is determined by the sky.
