The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

It was eerily quiet in the hall.

Dozens of Goguryeo generals, all tough men with strong backs and strong backs, dared not make a sound at this moment.

Yeon Gaesumun's face suddenly turned ugly.

Being timid before fighting is a taboo for military strategists.

But he didn't have any way to solve the current situation.

Unless he leads the Goguryeo army and defeats the Tang border army once. .??.

But this is too difficult.

Not even he, Yeon Gaesumun, has such confidence.

But if we fight against the Tang Dynasty border troops with the mentality of the soldiers, we will probably lose more than we win.

By that time, there would be powerful enemies from the Tang Dynasty border army in front of them, and there would be the Japanese army eyeing them from behind. I am afraid that he, Yeon Gaesumun, would be the first one to die here.

Commander, the Tang border troops may be here to avenge Zhao Chen. Tuo She, who had never spoken, suddenly said.

Yeon Gaesumun suddenly raised his head and looked at Tuo She.

Yeon Gaesumun actually didn’t know whether Zhao Chen was really dead.

Ever since he knew that Zhao Chen was ambushing his people in Xincheng with the remaining soldiers of Xincheng, Yeon Gaesumun ordered the entire Xincheng to be burned down.

The four city gates were also blocked by the army, making it impossible for the people inside to escape.

Moreover, he also sent troops to inspect the burned houses, but still nothing was found.

Yuan Gaisuwen felt that Zhao Chen should be dead.

But he didn't find Zhao Chen's body.

Hearing Tuo She's words at this moment, Yuan Gaisu Wen felt that there was a high probability that Zhao Chen really died in Xincheng.

Otherwise, why did the Tang border troops appear in Xincheng so quickly?

But if Zhao Chen is really dead, then the Tang border army's appearance this time is nothing more than an order for revenge.

Such an army is not something he should fight against at this time.

What's more, the Goguryeo army was not as good as the Tang border army.

But if this is the case, he can only find a way to bring the Japanese country with him

Pulled in.

Tushe, from today on, I order you to defend the capital of Silla. Yeon Gaesumun's sudden words made all the generals stunned.

Commander, what about you? a general asked.

The frontier army of the Tang Dynasty was approaching soon, and his own commander actually handed over the responsibility of defending the city to Tuo She.

Then where does he go?

Don't the Japanese countries want to come to Silla to get involved?

How could you let them miss such an opportunity! Yuan Gaisuwen sneered.

…

Military advisor, in another two hundred miles, we will reach the capital of the Silla Kingdom.

Yuan Gaisuwen must have been ready for a long time! Pei Xingjian and Xu Shiji reported at the Tang Dynasty border army camp.

Honor the promise, is there any news about the King of Han? Xu Shiji looked at Pei Xingjian.

Not yet, but the Xuanjia Army from before has been sent to inquire. Pei Xingjian shook his head.

He was also worried about Zhao Chen's safety.

There were only a few dozen people who dared to go to the Silla capital, which was full of Goguryeo soldiers. Pei Xingjian would not have such courage.

Okay. Xu Shiji nodded.

Pei Xingjian was about to go out when he was suddenly stopped by Xu Shiji: Shou, I remember that you know His Highness the King of Han, right?

Yes, the general and His Highness met in Chang'an, and it was His Highness's suggestion to come to the border army. Pei Xingjian nodded.

His master was Su Dingfang. When he was in Tubo, Su Dingfang talked to Zhao Chen about him being his apprentice.

After returning to Chang'an, Zhao Chen met Pei Xingjian while fighting with Li Chengqian.

Later, Zhao Chen suggested that Pei Xingjian go to the border army.

In recent years, Pei Xingjian also performed very well in the frontier army, and received Xu Shiji's

of appreciation.

When I return to Datang this time, I will suggest to His Highness that you stay with him...

What does this mean, military advisor?

But what did the general do wrong? Pei Xingjian was a little anxious.

Xu Shiji treated him well, and he was willing to stay with Xu Shiji.

Xu Shiji waved his hand and took Pei Xingjian to sit aside: You know, it was His Royal Highness the King of Han who forged the imperial edict this time when we went out to the army.

Forging an imperial edict is tantamount to rebellion. No matter what, His Highness the King of Han will definitely be severely punished. .??.

But the King of Han is the King of Han after all. His Majesty the Emperor cares about him the most. Even if he is severely punished this time, it won't take long before he will be favored again.

It's much better for you to follow him than to follow me. This is extremely important for your future.

Moreover, this time I knew that the King of Han had forged an imperial edict, but I still led the troops out. When I go back, even if I don't die, I will be dismissed from office and reduced in rank.

So, you have to leave.

Military advisor, this is not your responsibility, you are also doing it for... Pei Xingjian wanted to continue, but was interrupted by Xu Shiji's hand.

The behavior of the King of Han is always difficult to figure out. This time he forged an imperial edict and mobilized border troops. I guess he may have wanted to wipe out Silla, Baekje, and even Japan in one fell swoop.

Your Highness has the world in his heart, but he also needs someone to support him.

I, Xu Shiji, am willing to be such a person.

If you go to the King of Han, the King of Han will not refuse.

After this, you can only think about King Han. You don't need to worry about anything else.

Do you understand? Xu Shiji slowly explained to Pei Xingjian.

Xu Shiji sighed at Pei Xingjian's talent.

If you follow me, you will probably be able to guard the northern border for the rest of your life.

This really failed Pei Xingjian's talent.

so he

Only then did he think of sending Pei Xingjian to Zhao Chen.

Although Zhao Chen himself doesn't want to move forward, court affairs and the emperor's requirements will always make Zhao Chen move forward.

Datang was definitely not limited to its current territory.

Zhao Chen will need more talented people who can expand their territory in the future.

Pei Xingjian will also need a bigger stage to display his talents in the future.

Pei Xingjian nodded, but he was even more worried about Xu Shiji's safety.

As he just said, knowing that the imperial edict was forged and still insisting on sending troops was probably a very serious crime.

Don't worry about me. His Royal Highness the King of Han has clear grudges. Apart from being dismissed from office, his other treatment will not change.

It just so happens that I am getting older and need a good rest.

It's you, don't let me down!

Follow the King of Han and do your best! Xu Shiji smiled and patted Pei Xingjian on the shoulder.

Yes! Pei Xingjian kowtowed to Xu Shiji respectfully.

…

Zhao Chen had actually arrived at the Silla Royal City a long time ago.

But it was still two days later than Yeon Gaesomun.

Zhao Chen could see the scene of the King of Silla surrendering outside the city clearly.

But he did not choose to go to the city at that time.

The risk of entering the city was too high, and he didn't have any hidden connections in the King of Silla.

Once you enter the city, you may be discovered at any time.

After discussing with Cheng Chumo and others, everyone hid outside the city.

Just a few days later, all the city gates of the Silla capital were closed directly.

No one is allowed in or out.

This made Zhao Chen a little worried about Wu Xu's safety.

Zhao Da, don't worry too much. Wu Xu is protected by the Xuanjia Army. She is also very smart. As long as her identity is not discovered, she will be fine. Seeing Zhao Chen frowning, Cheng Chumo spoke to comfort him.
