Yeon Gae So-moon is a ruthless person, not only ruthless to others, but also ruthless to himself.
He has been on the road to climb to the pinnacle of power all his life, with only one goal in mind, which is to usurp the throne and establish himself as king! For this goal, he used bloody and ruthless methods, and countless civil and military ministers died tragically in his hands, just because
became his way.
When someone was needed to command the "Wang Zhuang Army" to go deep behind enemy lines and inflict powerful damage to the enemy, he did not hesitate to send his favorite son there, even though he had wanted to hand over his power and position countless times in the future.
This son inherits.
In his heart, power is the only thing. What does morality, etiquette, life, death, honor and disgrace mean?
…
Under the service of the chamberlain, he put on his armor, put on his dagger, endured bouts of dizziness, gritted his teeth and straightened his back, Yeon Gaesumun strode out of the hall with a sword in one hand, and came majestically with the guards around him.
Go to the palace gate.
The entire palace was like an isolated island under the fierce offensive of the Tang army. The nearby government offices, farmhouses, and shops were either occupied by the Tang army or bombed to the ground. Countless Tang troops besieged it from all directions in the west. The Imperial Guards and the defeated troops struggled to hold on.
, and started a desperate fight around the palace.
In the distance, the artillery set up by the Tang army could be vaguely seen in the streets. The muzzles of the guns flashed with fire and smoke, and the shells fell one after another inside and outside the palace. There were kerosene bombs and solid lead bullets.
Wherever it reaches, either a ball of flames rises into the sky, or it is destroyed and covered in flesh and blood.
The Praetorian Guards were indeed brave and fearless of death, but no matter how brave the soldiers were, they just wailed and fell to the ground when faced with artillery and musket fire.
Faced with such a power that destroys the heaven and earth, how can flesh and blood resist it?
Looking at the extremely tragic battle outside the palace gate, Yuan Gaisuwen's eyes were about to burst, and a ball of flame was burning in his chest and abdomen.
God bless me!
From ancient times to the present, wars for thousands of years have been nothing more than strong armor and fierce fighting. When two armies meet, the brave one wins! Of course, there are strategies and tactics, but the more important thing is the quality of the soldiers and the morale of the soldiers. As long as the soldiers are brave and their morale is high,
Then you can be invincible and conquer everything.
However, during the Tang Army's Eastern Expedition, firearms emerged. Not only were their destructive powers beyond the capabilities of flesh and blood, but the complete change in the mode of warfare was even more difficult for Yuan Gaisuwen to accept. In the past, Han people's military books had always been
There is a strategy of "encircle it ten times, attack it five times, and divide it if you double it". People all over the world regard it as a model, and its practicality has been verified in countless wars.
But with the advent of firearms, this strategy no longer applies.
No matter how high the city wall is, no matter how thick the city is, how can it withstand the explosive power of gunpowder? The city wall of Pingrang City is made of rammed clay as the core and is paved with green bricks and strips of stone on the outside. It is not only strong but also full of toughness, but it is still used by the Tang army.
Gunpowder blew open the city gate?
As long as the Tang army invaded the city, it would have required five or even ten times the number of defenders, and they would have to pay a terrible price with human lives. The Tang army might be able to be defeated. Otherwise, under the huge damage caused by the Tang army's muskets and thunderbolts,
There is only one picture of fall.
Not to mention that the Tang army not only possesses firearms, but also has the highest quality of its soldiers in the world. During the Han Dynasty, the Han army was so fierce that "one Han can stand up to five barbarians". The Han army was so powerful that it showed its power in foreign lands. Today's Tang army is no less generous.
, even the Turks and other powerful tribes that roamed the grassland were not able to overthrow their country and capture their king alive by the Tang Dynasty?
The brave and skilled Tang army was equipped with infinitely powerful firearms, which were enough to run rampant across the world, and no one could stop it. In addition, the Tang Dynasty had a vast territory, abundant resources, and the largest population in the world. Within a few hundred years, unless something happened to the Tang Dynasty itself,
There will be internal strife, otherwise it will be difficult for foreigners to compete.
What is most difficult for Yeon Gaesomun to accept is why weapons such as firearms, which can destroy the world and destroy the earth, appear in his own era?
Without firearms, even if the Tang army came in full force, he was confident that he could resist it. But now, the Liaodong Great Wall, which Goguryeo had spent 20 years to build with countless manpower and material resources, could not stop the Tang army for a day and a half, and those mountain cities built on the mountains were under the raging gunpowder
The walls collapsed and the houses collapsed, and hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo warriors were wiped out...
Why did firearms come out at this time?
He had planned to climb to the supreme throne of Goguryeo all his life, worked hard and finally got his wish, but God wanted Goguryeo to be completely destroyed...
Yeon Gae So Moon is unwilling to give in!
Regardless of the opposition of the world, regardless of morality and etiquette, he resolutely ascended to the throne in order to lead Goguryeo to dominate and reach an unprecedented peak, and even invade the Central Plains, overthrow the Han Dynasty, and let the blood of Goguryeo rule that rich and vast land!
But why didn’t this thief God favor the great Goguryeo?
Yeon Gaesumun's blood was boiling, and a surge of anger arose. He held the sword in his hand tightly and shouted in a hissing voice: "Kill the enemy with me!"
The sword pointed at not only the Tang army in heavy armor, but also the gloomy and dim sky, and even the unfair fate!
He has been fighting and killing all his life and never believed in fate.
He was not satisfied with just being a great Moliji, but worked hard to ascend to the supreme throne. He not only dared to raise his sword to the enemy, but also dared to fight to the death with his fate!
However, with the imperial guards around him, how could the minister dare to let him personally charge into the battle? If he survives for a while, he may be able to hold on until the army returns from the north for reinforcements. If he dies in battle, Goguryeo will fall in an instant...
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
"How can the king, with his body of gold, charge into battle?"
"Don't forget the lessons learned by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"
…
Yeon Gaesumun was full of passion and wished he could fight heaven and earth in a bloody battle, but he was grabbed tightly by the civil and military minister next to him and dragged back to the palace. He was so angry that he almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
However, at this time, I couldn't vent my anger on everyone. When I returned to the palace, I immediately organized all the guards and servants inside and outside the palace. There were many bows and crossbows hidden in the palace. They distributed them and thought of the Tang army's muskets.
Because of its long-range lethality, some bunkers were placed inside the palace gate to block the volleys of artillery fire from the Tang army. On their side, they could hide behind the bunkers and fight back with bows and crossbows.
Of course, the current situation is already precarious, and the overthrow is only a matter of seconds. It is impossible to repel the Tang army with the strength of the troops in Pingrang City alone. The only hope is for the army that can hold on to the north to come back for reinforcements.
At this point, Yuengai Suwen felt even more regretful. How could he have become so obsessed that he sent troops to pursue the Tang army in an attempt to slow down its withdrawal?
If not, there were sufficient troops in the city, and the Tang Army's navy only had tens of thousands of troops. Even if they took the courage of a leopard, they would not dare to come to Pingrang City to fight the autumn wind...
However, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to talk about it.
After arranging the things at hand, he rubbed his swollen temples, closed his eyes, and said to his left and right: "I am a little dizzy, I want to rest for a while, you will go back and wait outside the palace, call the orphan here, I have something to explain."
."
"Here!"
Everyone bowed and saluted and walked out of the main hall.
After a while, Yuan Nansheng walked in quickly and saluted: "My father called me here, what are your orders?"
Yeon Gaesumun sat on the throne, opened his eyes, looked at this delicate and handsome young son, and felt a sudden sadness in his heart.
The blood line is inherited, and the father dies and the son succeeds. I have worked hard to usurp the throne. After a hundred years, it will naturally be handed over to my son to inherit, and then for generations to come, it will never be cut off. However, now that I have ascended the throne, not only will the crown prince come,
Not being able to confer a title means not even being able to confer a title on your son...
Taking a deep breath, Yeon Gaesumun glanced outside the door, raised his voice and said, "Who is outside the door?"
Jian Moucen appeared from the door: "He is the last general."
Yuan Gaesumun nodded and said: "No one can come near, and anyone who disobeys the order will be killed."
"Here!"
Jian Moucen responded, walked out of the hall, and stood by the door, holding a waist knife in one hand and watching with eager eyes, not allowing anyone to come near.
I thought to myself: Your Majesty is probably going to settle your affairs now, right? But now the Tang army is unstoppable, and it will be a matter of time before the palace is forced. Once the army from the north is too late to come back for reinforcements, the country is doomed and the family is doomed, so what else can be done?
The explanation? I think it was to let Yuan Nansheng escape, while the Yuan clan would be cut off from blood heirs...
Thinking of this, he rolled his eyes, stepped slightly closer to the door, held his breath and listened to the sounds in the hall.
Yeon Gae Su Wen is a man of great talent and outstanding intelligence. If it were normal, he would have realized that at this time when people's hearts are separated, everyone must be on guard. But now he is so anxious and his body is extremely weak, but he has forgotten to watch out for Jian Moucen...
…
He looked at Yuan Nanchan in front of him, and a feeling of sadness surged in his heart, and he said slowly: "The matter has come to this, I'm afraid there is no way to save it, and the destruction will only happen in an instant."
