Prosperous Tang Soul

Chapter 517 The city is broken, the country is destroyed

The explosion of gunpowder bombs can take away the lives of some Goguryeo people, and it can also blow up the newly built inner wall to pieces, and those blasted stones and the like have also become killing tools.

Countless Goguryeo soldiers and civilians died unexpectedly.

However, it's not over yet!
This is just the first round of rocket shooting, Xue Li and the others are not just at this level.

Soon, the second round of rockets shot towards this direction again, and the Goguryeo people who had been stunned by the first round of rockets had no defense at all, and those people didn't even dodge much, so they just stood there in a daze .

Looking at the Goguryeo people who were about to despair, Xue Li directly ordered the Tang army stationed outside the city to immediately attack the capital of Goguryeo.

After receiving Xue Li's order, the soldiers of the Tang army outside the city immediately spontaneously formed a team and began to rush towards the capital of Goguryeo.

But now that Xue Li and the others occupied the outer wall of the capital city of Goguryeo, the Tang army entered the city very smoothly.

The Tang army that entered the city was almost unstoppable, and it was not enough to rely on the remaining Goguryeo remnants and defeated generals.

There was almost no need for soldiers of the Tang army to take action. They only needed to see groups of Goguryeo soldiers, and they could kill them all by shooting a round of rockets.

This is the gap in weapons, no, this can no longer be said to be a gap, this is naked crushing, just relying on this rocket, Tang Jun has been able to completely crush the Goguryeo people.

At this time, Xue Li thought of Zhang Yi who was far away in Chang'an.

I don't know how many such thoughts are still in that guy's mind. If he can come up with all his ideas, then who can compete with Tang Jun in this big world?

But now is not the time to think about these things. Since the Tang army has captured the capital of Goguryeo, Xue Li must lead his army to rush in quickly. He wants to be the first general of the Tang army to break into the Goguryeo palace.

Knowing that the city wall was breached, the Goguryeo people, from the king to the common people, already knew the outcome of the war.

They were doomed, and there was no chance of a comeback.

In this war, they lost hundreds of thousands of young and strong, and their entire country has a population of only one million, and there are only hundreds of thousands of young and middle-aged, and now they have almost lost everything.Even if they still wanted to resist, what would they use to fight Tang Jun?woman?ridiculous.

Before the Tang army reached the palace of the Goguryeo people, their emperor had already chosen to kill himself.

Since they chose to provoke Datang at the beginning, then they should have this awareness. After all, the strength of the Central Plains Dynasty was beyond their imagination, and they planned to take advantage of the fact that Datang had just experienced two battles and was weak. He paved the way for their future development.

I didn't expect Datang to be so strong, and he wiped them out immediately.

The Goguryeo people probably have regrets now, but there is no medicine for regret in this world. Since they chose to do that, they now have to bear the consequences of failure.

Not many of the 60 Goguryeo people in the capital were able to survive in the end. Although the city was not massacred, after this battle, Goguryeo did not have five or sixty years of recuperation. It is basically impossible to recover. Even the population is very large. It's hard to get back to the current level.

But these are not what Xue Li wants to consider.

Now that the Tang army has won a complete victory, they are ready to return to the dynasty.

The good news had already been sent to Chang'an yesterday when the Goguryeo Emperor committed suicide. Xue Li believed that when he returned to Chang'an City, he would definitely be cheered by the people.

I am also a hero.

After the victory of Tang Jun, he did not stay too much in Goguryeo, and went on to prepare to sweep Baekje.

At the beginning, Baekje and Goguryeo were fighting together, but now that Goguryeo has been wiped out, how can Baekje be spared.

At this time, Silla, who had been enduring it all the time, also sent troops to follow the pace of the Tang army and attack Baekje from the east at the same time.

In just two days, the little Baekje was beaten below the capital.

Facing the tens of thousands of Tang troops and the tens of thousands of Silla troops, the Baekje people believed that they did not have the strength to fight against two countries at the same time, so they simply surrendered before the Tang troops attacked.

After all, Goguryeo's lesson is ahead. If they don't surrender, it is estimated that their capital will be gone.

After Baekje surrendered, Tang Jun appeased Silla, and then he could prepare for the real squadron to return to the dynasty.

This time the Eastern Expedition, the Tang Army can be said to have won a complete victory. Among them, the officers and men of the Tang Army have contributed a lot, but when it comes to the generals, then Xue Li is undoubtedly the most credited.

And if Xue Li were to choose the person who would help him the most, or the person who would help Tang Jun the most, Xue Li would definitely choose Zhang Yi who was far away in Chang'an without hesitation.

If it weren't for his gunpowder bombs, it would be impossible for Tang Jun to suppress the Goguryeo people all the time, nor would it be possible to carry out the battle so smoothly.

Later, when it was time to besiege the capital of Goguryeo, if Zhang Yi hadn't had the idea of ​​the rocket sent in time, I still don't know what the outcome of the war would be.

It can be said that without Zhang Yi, Tang Jun may not win this battle, and even if they win, the price they will pay will be very high.

Not to mention these things, the Tang army won the battle, the squadron returned to the court, and the whole Tang Dynasty celebrated with the whole country.

Xue Li took the Tang army back to Chang'an, and Li Er had already prepared a banquet in Chang'an, waiting for the return of these soldiers from the Eastern Expedition.

It can be said that after Xue Li and the others defeated Goguryeo, there was no country around Datang that could have the strength to wrestle with Datang.

Even if several countries around Datang unite now, Li Er is not afraid at all, just fight over, who can stop Tang Jun now.

Moreover, Datang's increasingly filling treasury also gave Li Er great confidence. As long as he has money, food and soldiers, who will be his opponent?

When the news of the victory of the Eastern Expedition reached Chang'an, Zhang Yi also knew about it. At this time, he was lying on the chair safely, waiting for someone to feed him fruit.

After this period of hard work, all of his daughters-in-law have improved. Well, in the next year, his Zhang family will have four more little guys who can cry and make trouble.

And now the old lady of the Zhang family looked at this scene at home, not to mention how happy she was smiling.

Every old man hopes to have a full house of children and grandchildren.

Although Zhang Yi is living very comfortably now, he knows that he still has one very important thing to do.

Which matter, when Xue Li came back, I was climbing up the pole he gave me. Now I have no reason to ask, and it is not easy to ask.
