    Chapter 106 The fall of Silla

    With the addition of Zou Fengchi, Li Zhen has financial security.

    Zou Fengchi is indeed outstanding in ability and lives up to expectations. In just one month, he has established a business network in the northeastern region of Datang.

    His business model has achieved great success and has also provided Li Zhen with a steady stream of profits.

    With money, everything will be easier. Li Zhen plans to recruit another 30,000 troops within three months.

    At the same time, the treatment of officers and soldiers was improved, and the treatment of Goguryeo soldiers was also improved, so that their salary after serving as soldiers would be enough to support their families.

    As a result, both the Tang army and the Goguryeo troops surrendered with great enthusiasm.

    At this time, the Tang army and the Goguryeo army not only had no salary, but also had to bring their own weapons and horses when fighting. They were farmers in peacetime and soldiers in wartime.

    However, Li Zhen established a professional army with a fixed salary every month. In this way, not only did the Tang army support Li Zhen and were willing to sacrifice their lives for Li Zhen, but even the surrendered troops of Goguryeo completely surrendered psychologically.  Li Zhen.

    Because everyone knows that being a soldier can support your family, and you can be promoted to an official position if you have achieved military exploits, which is much better than being an ordinary farmer struggling on the verge of death.

    Therefore, Li Zhen¡¯s plan was to recruit 30,000 troops in three months, but it took less than a month to recruit a sufficient number of troops.

    Although this army is mainly composed of Han people, it also contains a large number of former Goguryeo people, Xi people, Khitan people, Bohai people, and even Jurchens and Silla people.

    Being a soldier can bring you a salary, and you can be promoted if you have achieved military exploits. This is very attractive to these people.

    Because there were so many people who signed up, the people admitted were all brave and good at fighting, which also greatly improved the quality of this recruiting period.

    At the same time, Li Zhen's musketeers and grenadiers completed their equipment and training during this month. Although there were not many people and equipment, they were the first true musketeers in the world.

    Furthermore, Li Zhen tailored special tactics for this musketeer team and soldiers. Only suitable tactics can achieve the greatest effect for the musketeers.

    It was at this moment that Li Zhen received news that the battle between Silla and the Baekje coalition had reached its final moments.

    At this time, the ruler of Silla was Queen Kinderman of Seondeok. Kinderman was a very smart woman who established a good relationship with the Tang Dynasty in order to survive in the cracks between Goguryeo and Baekje and leverage the power of the Tang Dynasty.  Tang Dynasty allowed Silla to develop and grow.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the eternal emperor Li Shimin, but later in the face of interests, this kind of friendship forged in the war became worthless.

    At this time, Queen Seondeok led Silla's last 30,000 remaining soldiers to defend the capital Jinzhou. Queen Seondeok originally expressed hope for reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty. However, two months had passed and reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty had only arrived at the border area.  .

    The leader of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Rengui, did not even make a symbolic attack to contain Baekje, which made Queen Seondeok completely fall into despair.

    Silla originated from Chenhan among the three Koreas. It was originally a vassal state of Baekje, and its national power was much inferior to that of Baekje. Now Baekje has tens of thousands of Goguryeo elites produced by Quannan and tens of thousands of Japanese troops to help.  Luo Yiyu couldn't fight against it.

    Now that Tang Dynasty has not come to help, Queen Kinderman knows that Silla has reached its last moment.

    In Jinzhou City, there was a roar of killing outside the city. Countless Baekje soldiers, Japanese samurai, and Goguryeo cavalry launched a tidal wave of attacks on the city.

    Although the Silla soldiers in Jinzhou City resisted desperately, they suffered heavy casualties and gradually became exhausted. The city was breached in a matter of seconds.

    Kinderman had been the queen for more than ten years, but she had no heirs. Seeing that the city was about to be breached, he called a young and beautiful woman to his side. This woman was his cousin Jin Shengman.

    Legally speaking, Jin Seungman is one of the heirs to the throne of Silla, and Jin Seungman is also a very capable person. Jindeman has made a decision to appoint Jin Seungman as the next Queen of Silla and become her own  heir.

    When Jin Deman made his decision, Jin Shengman cried and said: "Sister Wang is in her prime, how can she give up the throne so easily? As long as Sister Wang is here, Silla is here."

    Kinderman smiled sadly, shook his head and said: "Sister, Jinzhou City is the last city of Silla. With the current situation, it will not be long before it will be lost. I have decided to coexist with Silla, but the people of Silla cannot  There is no hope, you must fight out, find the Tang army, and help Silla recover  "

    "Tang Jun? The war has been going on for several months, and there is no trace of Tang Jun? Can we still rely on Tang Jun?" Jin Shengnan said in a trembling voice.

    "We have no other choice but to rely on the Tang Army. If the Tang Army does not help us, then we, Silla, will never be able to regain our country."

    "Sister, I and your 800 elite soldiers will fight your way out of the siege overnight and go to the hometown of Goguryeo to find the Tang army. Remember, you must survive. If you survive, there will be hope for Silla."

    "Sister Wang, you come with me." Jin Shengnan said.

    "As the Queen of Silla, I will naturally live and die with Silla. The death of the monarch can be regarded as worthy of the ancestors."

    "Sister Wang"

    "I have made up my mind, no need to say more, Wang Mei, this army will counterattack in the south tonight, attracting the attention and strength of the Baekje coalition forces. Wang Mei took the opportunity to break out of the encirclement to the north. After breaking out of the encirclement, she immediately went to find the Tang army.  Even if we cannot restore the country, we will still lead the Tang army and Baekje to become enemies and avenge our Silla!"

    "Sister Wang" Jin Shengman cried and bowed to the ground

    On the third day of October in the 17th year of Zhenguan and the 15th year of Renping in the Silla calendar, the Baekje allied forces broke through Jinzhou, the capital of Silla, and occupied the entire territory of Silla. The Silla country was destroyed.

    Queen Jindeman of Silla fell into the city and died in order not to be insulted by the Baekje coalition forces. More than 200 Silla officials followed her.

    Only Jin Shengman, the cousin of the Queen of Silla, led 800 cavalry to break out of the encirclement and fled to the Tang Dynasty.

    The Baekje Allied Forces were not satisfied after occupying the entire territory of Silla. They were eyeing the homeland of Goguryeo. Under the guidance of Quan Nanchan, they launched several small-scale attacks on the border of Datang. However, Xue Rengui, the defender of Datang, was well prepared and was in dangerous places.  A strong line of defense was established.

    The Baekje Allied Forces attacked Datang several times, but were repulsed with over a thousand casualties.

    After experiencing the power of the Tang border army, the Baekje coalition gradually became afraid of the enemy and hesitated to move forward. Only Quannan was able to attack the Tang Dynasty and restore Goguryeo's homeland.

    However, the Baekje and Japanese people did not want to take advantage of the fire for Quannan, so they acted slowly. Quannan had no choice but to lead more than 10,000 fine cavalry to attack Goguryeo's hometown alone. At the same time, he contacted the old troops, hoping to cooperate internally and externally to separate Goguryeo from the Tang Dynasty.

    Suddenly, the situation on the peninsula rose again, but at this time, Li Zhen still stood still (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
