The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

"The King of Han of the Tang Dynasty?" When the general who defended the city heard about Zhao Chen's origin, his face immediately changed.

Although the rest of the people did not know Zhao Chen, the name of Hanwang of the Tang Dynasty was enough to shock them.

That was the King of Han of the Tang Dynasty. Even their Majesty the King had to be respectful when meeting the King of Han of the Tang Dynasty.

How could such a person appear here?

Did His Highness the King of Han of the Tang Dynasty bring reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty?

"Are you His Highness the King of Han of the Tang Dynasty?" General Xincheng asked Zhao Chen cautiously. Even after asking this question, he didn't know it himself and held his breath.

The other soldiers also stared at Zhao Chen with their eyes widened.

"I am the King of Han of the Tang Dynasty." Zhao Chen smiled and nodded with everyone.

"Then the Tang Dynasty sent reinforcements to support us?"

"They should be sent. If there are no reinforcements, how can we be their opponent?"

"Yes, we have always been a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty will never turn a blind eye to us."

All the soldiers spoke one after another, and when they said these words, they seemed to be confirming their own statement, but in fact they were like getting a positive answer from Zhao Chen's mouth.

When Cheng Chumo saw everyone like this, although he couldn't bear to break everyone's illusions, he still felt that he should tell them all the facts.

Taking a step forward, he was about to say that Zhao Chen was the only one here this time. Before he could speak, he heard Zhao Chen say with a smile: "Of course, this time I came under the orders of the Tang Dynasty. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty His Majesty knew that Silla was attacked by Goguryeo, so he immediately mobilized an army of 100,000 troops, preparing to attack Yeon Gaesumun from behind with Silla soldiers."

"It just takes some time to raise food and grass, because the consumption of a hundred thousand troops is indeed an astronomical figure."

"In half a month at most, our Tang army will appear behind the Goguryeo army."

"When the time comes, we'll talk to Silla's soldiers

They attacked from front to back and beat Goguryeo hard. "

"Did you hear that? Datang really has reinforcements coming to support us."

"I knew that Datang would not give up on us."

"With an army of one hundred thousand, we can definitely defeat Goguryeo's army."

"I didn't expect that the Tang border troops would come to support us after their granaries were burned down. It's really..."

"If we hold on for another half month, we can wait for reinforcements."

"For the family and friends behind me, and for Silla, no matter what, I have to hold on for half a month."

Knowing that the Tang Dynasty had 100,000 troops and would come to support them in half a month, all the Silla soldiers on the city tower instantly became excited.

The reason why they have no morale is because they have been humiliated by Camel Shot before, and because they have no support, they are no match for Goguryeo.

Anyway, the country will be destroyed in the end. How many of them are willing to fight?

But now, His Royal Highness the King of Han of the Tang Dynasty said personally that a hundred thousand troops would enter Silla in half a month and attack the rear of Goguryeo.

There are still more than 40,000 soldiers in the new city. Although there are hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo troops outside the city, they are still confident that they can hold on for half a month.

Even if they all die, they are still willing for the sake of their family and friends, and for the Silla Kingdom.

"Your Highness, King of Han, thank you!" The leading Xincheng general suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to Zhao Chen.

The gray-bearded general kowtowed to himself, and Zhao Chen hurriedly helped him up.

But when he lifted this one up, the others also knelt down.

For a time, a large number of people knelt down on the tower.

but

In each of their eyes, there was hope that had never been seen before.

But there was a flash of worry in the eyes of Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu.

…

After appeasing everyone, Zhao Chen and the others walked into the small house in the city tower.

There is only one chair, one bed, one teacup, and a battle map in the small house.

The rest, just saw nothing.

This is Cheng Chumo's temporary residence, and he is worried that the Goguryeo army will attack the city in the middle of the night.

"Drink a glass of water. I've already asked people to bring dry food. Zhao Da, you can make do with some later. I'll see if there's any better food later." Cheng Chumo poured a cup of tea.

Qin Huaiyu sat down on the ground next to him. Cheng Chumo opened his mouth, wanting to ask something, but seemed to have no idea how to ask.

Zhao Chen drank the tea, but his stomach was still growling with hunger.

"You have something to say." Zhao Chen didn't even raise his head, knowing that the two of them had something to ask.

Cheng Chumo glanced at Qin Huaiyu and saw Qin Huaiyu nodded towards him. After thinking for a moment, he whispered: "I heard that the imperial court ordered that the frontier army is not allowed to make any moves without an order from the imperial court. Otherwise, the frontier army commander Xu Shiji will be engaged in military law." ."

"Moreover, the grain warehouses of the border troops were burned down, and it was impossible to gather food for a hundred thousand troops in a short time."

"Zhao Da, you are actually lying to them, right?"

After Cheng Chumo finished speaking, his eyes fell on Zhao Chen's face.

He knew clearly that Zhao Chen was probably deceiving the New City defenders in order to make them feel hopeful and improve their morale.

But Cheng Chu silently felt that Zhao Chen should not do this.

The soldiers who defended the city thought there was hope, but when half a month passed, there were no reinforcements.

defender

How desperate will the soldiers be when they die?

Cheng Chumo would rather they die in plain sight than be deceived.

Qin Huaiyu didn't have an explanation, but he obviously meant the same thing as Cheng Chumo.

"Not counting lying to them, the Tang border troops will enter Silla within half a month at most." Zhao Chen's words cheered up both Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu.

"But the court..."

"I don't care about the imperial edict, but the Tang border troops will definitely arrive in half a month." Zhao Chen said calmly.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu couldn't believe it.

"How is that possible?" Qin Huaiyu asked hesitantly.

"I asked the men of the Xuanjia Army to take my seal of the King of Han to the frontier army camp."

"And forged an imperial edict."

"What?"

"Zhao Da, you..."

Zhao Chen's words made Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu break into cold sweats.

Forged edict!

This is definitely a capital crime of beheading!

Zhao Chen couldn't help but know, but he actually did it!

"Why?"

"Zhao Da, you know, this will ruin all your future." Cheng Chu looked at Zhao Chen silently, with confusion in his eyes.

"I don't want you to die here!" Zhao Chen's faint words made Cheng Chumo's heart seem to be stabbed hard.

Qin Huaiyu clenched his fist fiercely and looked at Zhao Chen in disbelief.

"Zhao Da!" Qin Huaiyu's voice was choked with sobs.

Zhao Chen waved his hand and said in a calm tone: "You two are the first friends I met. I have always regarded you as my brothers. No matter what happens, I will not let anything happen to you."
