Chapter 248 The End of Tubo
...........
It's quiet at night.
It was extremely quiet outside the Gimje City, but inside the Goryeo camp, the lights were bright.
Inside the city, 20,000 Silla troops were ready.
At the same time, Li Ji led 6,000 soldiers and ambushed behind the enemy camp.
Li Ji led his troops out of the city and ambushed nearby two days before the arrival of the Goryeo army.
"Okay, let's get started."
Seeing the lights lit up in the Goryeo military camp, Ning Quan gave a sinister smile.
"Yes!"
A dozen soldiers around him immediately took the order and pressed the detonator button.
"Boom~"
"Boom~"
..........
The violent explosion was deafening, and the entire camp instantly became hell.
“Ah, ah~!”
Screams, curses, and cries filled the air.
There was chaos in the Goryeo camp.
A large number of Goryeo soldiers were either killed in the explosion or stunned into silence.
They had never experienced anything so horrific.
At the same time, the explosion also caused a raging fire.
The tents of the Goryeo army caught fire and collapsed one after another.
"Ahhh! Help! Run! There's a fire! Help!"
Some soldiers were burned and let out shrill howls.
“Kill him.”
"kill!"
At this time, Li Ji took the lead and led his soldiers to attack the Goryeo camp from behind.
Inside Gimje City, Park Shin-chang also led 20,000 Silla troops out of the city gate and attacked the Goryeo camp.
What follows is a massacre!
The Goryeo army was already terrified by the sudden disaster.
They had no power to resist at all, and their general was unfortunately killed by the explosives.
“Kill~!”
For a time, the entire Goryeo camp was flooded with blood and filled with grief.
"Surrender, we surrender."
"Please, don't kill us."
“No~!”
"Help, please don't kill us."
"Woo~"
..............................
Countless Goryeo soldiers fled in panic, crying for their parents.
But the Silla soldiers didn't care about that.
Silla and Goryeo are mortal enemies. There is no surrender between the two sides. Killing is necessary!
Therefore, even if the Goryeo soldiers surrendered, they would not show mercy and would still pursue and kill them.
Soon, the entire Goryeo camp was flooded with blood!
Of course, the soldiers led by Li Ji did not participate in it, but just watched from the side.
Li Ji would never do such a thing as taking the blame.
As the wailing sounds gradually subsided, the Goryeo camp had become a hell on earth!
The ground was littered with decapitated corpses, the flowing blood had soaked the land, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood that made people want to vomit!
..................
Ning Quan on the city wall looked at the scene below with an expressionless face.
He also had no good feelings towards Goryeo.
In fact, he had no good feelings towards the three countries on the peninsula, including Silla.
If it weren’t for Kim Hyo-joo, Ning Quan would not help Silla.
And more importantly, Ning Quan was also considering the future.
In time, once Huo Qubing eliminates the Eastern Xiongnu, the peninsula will definitely be Ning Quan's next target.
Because Ningquan also needs an outlet to the sea, an outlet connecting to the mainland.
By then, Silla, Goryeo and Baekje must all be destroyed.
Of course, this is just a concept and it will take a long time to realize it.
Moreover, Ning Quan had another hidden purpose in his heart.
That is to completely wipe out Japan.
Although this is another world, the deep hatred forces Ning Quan to destroy Japan.
"Ninth Prince, you are truly a god."
Park Jianxun praised sincerely.
He didn't expect Ning Quan to be so powerful. The 70,000-strong Korean army was wiped out in the blink of an eye.
"Haha, County Magistrate Park, you're too polite."
Ning Quan smiled and shook his head.
"Governor Park, my mission is complete with this battle. I will lead my troops back soon. The rest will be left to the governor and General Park."
Ning Quan then continued.
"Okay, Your Highness the Ninth Prince, don't worry, I will definitely get it done."
........
Two days later, Ning Quan led his army back to Luozhou.
Upon learning of Ningquan's great victory, Jin Yingquan was overjoyed and went out of the city to welcome Ningquan in person.
"Welcome to His Highness the Ninth Prince's triumphant return."
Jin Yingquan said with a bow.
"Haha, Your Majesty, you are too polite."
Ning Quan said politely.
After the two exchanged greetings, Jin Yingquan invited Ning Quan into the palace.
"Your Highness, you have helped us Silla a lot this time."
"The annihilation of Goryeo's 70,000-strong army is absolutely devastating. It will take at least several years for them to recover."
Jin Yingquan said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, you are too polite. It is only natural for a family to help."
"Your Majesty, the matter has been resolved, and I am ready to leave."
“Leaving so soon?”
Jin Yingquan was stunned for a moment.
"Well, you may not know this, but I'm at war with Tubo and I have to go back quickly."
"Go to war with Tubo?"
"Oh, I see. Then I won't keep you here."
Kim Young-kwon suddenly realized.
.........
Early the next morning, Ning Quan set out to return to Tamsui.
Jin Yingquan led the civil and military officials to welcome them and watched Ning Quan and others leave.
Two days later, the fleet arrived in Tamsui.
After staying in Tamsui for one night and listening to Zhou Yu's work report, Ning Quan took Jin Xiaozhu back to Xizhou.
Li Ji was left behind by Ning Quan to serve as Zhou Yu's deputy.
At the same time, the army led by Yue Fei had captured nearly half of Tubo's territory.
It was not until Ashina She'er arrived with his troops that Yue Fei's attack was finally stopped.
Now the armies of both sides are facing each other, and no one has taken the initiative to attack in three days.
Ashina She'er did not dare to take the initiative to attack because he knew the strength of the enemy cavalry, especially the heavy cavalry.
Yue Fei deliberately did not send troops in order to delay time.
Because Yue Fei knew that the Tibetan army was short of food and fodder, it would have to retreat in half a month at the latest.
That's when he strikes.
............
In the camp, Ashina She'er sat in the main seat with a gloomy face.
A group of civil and military officials stood below.
"Has the reinforcements and food supplies from Nanzhao not arrived yet?"
Ashina She'er asked.
Ashina She'er was not unaware of the shortage of food and fodder, nor did he fail to make arrangements.
Before leading his army to war, he ordered the Nanzhao Kingdom to send troops to support him and demanded a large amount of food and fodder.
The Nanzhao Kingdom was a vassal state of Tubo and always followed Tubo's lead.
But until now, there has been no sighting of reinforcements from Nanzhao, nor any food or fodder.
"Report to the Khan, the appointed date has passed, but there is still no sign of food and reinforcements."
A general replied.
"Damn it!"
Ashina She'er slammed the table.
“Don’t they want to live anymore?”
"How dare you disobey my orders? Come, send someone to urge them immediately."
"Tell Nanzhao that if they don't send reinforcements and food, I will destroy them!"
"Yes!"
The general responded quickly and hurried out.
........
At the same time, in the Nanzhao Palace.
A fierce dispute is unfolding over whether to provide aid to Tubo.
