The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1751 It’s really embarrassing

Cheng Chumo's words stunned the generals who had originally planned to surrender.

If they surrender without weapons and equipment, will Goguryeo agree to it?

What if Cheng Chumo puts down his weapons and equipment and brings people back to kill them?

"General Cheng, we are at the end of the road now. You are not from Silla after all. Why do you expect General Cheng to show your favor?" A general who wanted to surrender looked at Cheng Chumo.

The tone sounded like pleading, but in fact it was threatening Cheng Chumo.

But Cheng Chumo also had a bad temper. ??

Especially on such a big issue of right and wrong, there is no room for a grain of sand in one's eyes.

Although he was not from Silla, since the king of Silla handed over the army to himself, he had to be responsible for this army.

Letting those who want to surrender leave is already his biggest concession.

Because Cheng Chumo also knew in his heart that if these Silla soldiers who had no idea of ​​fighting were not allowed to leave, it would affect other soldiers who were still wavering.

Allowing surrendered soldiers to take away their weapons and equipment is absolutely not allowed.

"I only give you one chance to leave with someone who is willing to follow you."

"If anyone thinks of surrendering after tonight, I will never agree." Cheng Chu pulled out his sword with a clang and stared at the people in front of him coldly.

Everyone was shocked by Cheng Chumo.

Some people wanted to draw their swords, but were stopped by the people around them.

There are still many people here who support Cheng Chumo, and Cheng Chumo is very skilled. If they really fight here, they may not necessarily take advantage.

Anyway, as long as they don't fight the Goguryeo army, they don't have to lose their lives in vain.

"Then we wish General Cheng victory over the Goguryeo army."

"Let's go!" After saying that, more than half of the generals walked down the tower.

The remaining generals all stood there blankly, looking at Cheng Chumo in front of them.

\u003e "General Cheng, what should we do now?" the old general wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and asked Cheng Chumo.

Although he didn't think Cheng Chumo's handling method was very good, Cheng Chumo was an outsider here to help Silla defend their territory.

This kindness already prevented him from questioning Cheng Chumo.

"Gather the remaining soldiers and defend the city." Cheng Chumo said, turned around and left the tower.

Cheng Chumo had no choice at this time.

If they could win a battle with Tuo She, even just one battle, it would be enough to revive the morale that was almost gone now.

But there is no way.

No one in the entire new city is Tuo She's opponent.

With the current situation of the Xincheng soldiers, ordinary methods of improving morale simply won't work.

What's more, there was almost a mutiny in the army today.

"Cheng Er, the remaining soldiers have been counted. There are less than 50,000 soldiers left in the city." Qin Huaiyu walked into the room, his tone full of worry.

The new city gathered almost the entire Silla army.

There are a full 120,000 horses.

But now after counting, there are less than 50,000 people left.

In other words, there are sixty or seventy thousand people who left the new city today, either surrendered or fled.

Qin Huaiyu didn't even have to think about it to know how far Xincheng's morale had fallen.

If Goguryeo were to attack the city now, Xincheng would probably be captured with a single charge.

Cheng Chumo lowered his head. He was now at his wits end.

Whenever he can find someone to hit

The general who defeated Tuo She...

"When will Zhao Da arrive?" Cheng Chumo suddenly raised his head and looked at Qin Huaiyu.

It has been half a month since Zhao Chen and his party entered Silla.

On the way, I also constantly learned some news about the new city from the people of Silla.

In the evening of this day, Zhao Chen and others rested in a small town in Silla.

I ordered two dishes but didn't see any meat.

Zhao Chen is also used to it. Since entering Silla, he has not seen any meat in any of the towns along the way.

It's not that the people of Silla don't eat meat, it's that they don't have meat at all.

All the meat was levied to the new city and given to the Silla soldiers who defended the new city.

"These foods are not as good as the dry food I brought myself." Wu Xu reluctantly pushed all the food to Zhao Chen opposite.

Zhao Chen didn't mind either. Being able to have a bite of hot food in Silla was already pretty good, so there was no need to be picky.

As soon as I picked up my chopsticks and was about to take a few bites, I suddenly heard someone at the table next to me curse: "Made, we gave all the meat to the soldiers, but what did they do?"

"I received news that just two days ago, nearly half of the Xincheng generals and soldiers chose to surrender."

"Now there are less than 50,000 troops left in the new city to defend the city."

"Goguryeo has hundreds of thousands of troops. The fall of the new city will probably only happen in the next few days."

"Isn't that right? I also heard about this. Those who surrendered were all our Silla soldiers, General Cheng and General Qin. They are from the Tang Dynasty. They are the ones who should leave at this time, but they said, Even if I die, I will die on the tower of the new city."

"Think about it, think about our own people, it's really embarrassing!"

"Oh, stop talking,

Our Silla army is the worst at bullying us ordinary people. How about dealing with Goguryeo, haha..."

Another wry smile made Zhao Chen stop using his chopsticks.

At this moment, Zhao Chen was no longer in the mood to eat. He knew that the situation in Xincheng was critical. After all, there was a huge gap in military strength between the two sides.

But he didn't expect that Xincheng was at the point of life and death at this moment.

Zhao Chen naturally didn't care whether the new city could be defended.

To be honest, even if Silla destroyed the country, it had nothing to do with him, Zhao Chen.

But in the new city, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu were both there.

Moreover, the diners just now also said that Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu had promised to live and die with Xincheng.

If the new city is destroyed, the two of them will definitely not survive.

Zhao Chen silently put down his chopsticks.

He had to rush to the new city as soon as possible to save the lives of those two guys.

But if he doesn't have an army, he will definitely not be able to defend the new city by then.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu will also be in danger by then.

It's just that it's too late to think so much now. If it doesn't work, we can only force the two of them back to the Tang Dynasty.

"Sanpao." Zhao Chen waved to Qin Sanpao who was eating at another table.

"Master." Qin Sanpao wiped his mouth and asked.

"After dinner, go find some brothers..."

"We will continue on our way later."

"Okay." Qin Sanpao's face was a little solemn, but he still nodded firmly, then walked quickly to his seat and started eating quickly.

The night slowly fell.

Zhao Chen and Wu Xu got on the carriage again. At this time, they were still two hundred miles away from the new city.

They would arrive at the new city at noon three days later.
