Silla–Tang War
670–676 conflict between Tang China and the Silla kingdom of Korea / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Silla–Tang War (670–676) occurred between the Silla kingdom of Korea (joined by Goguryeo and Baekje loyalists) and the Tang dynasty of China.[1] It began in the geopolitical context immediately following the conquest of Goguryeo and Baekje by the joint forces of Silla and Tang. The conflict ended with a truce between Tang and Silla due to the internal political situation in both states,[4] with the dividing territorial line at the Taedong River basin.
