Synopsis
In the midst of the 7th century, Tang Dynasty attacked Goguryeo. Goguryeo had defeated the Sui Dynasty previously. The Emperor Taizong, Li Shimin, led 300,000 soldiers, but his forces were completely defeated by the Lord Yang Manchun. It was 668, only 20 years after Great Goguryeo made his name in its heyday. Was Goguryeo in an extremely precarious position? But this time, due to internal factions, Goguryeo was defeated by the united forces of Silla and Tang Dynasty. A great number of Goguryeo people were massacred. Those homeless people wandered around under the ruling of Tang Dynasty. Among those hopeless and desperate people, a brave hero, Dae Joyeong, courageously stood up to save his nation. He set the suppressed Goguryeo people free from Tang dynasty and then gathered troops. This happened thirty years after the fall of Goguryeo.
